Wordsworth says, 1.-THE Boy is
Father of the Man: and the Glove.
land, (Ohio) Farmer offers this
good advice to aspiring boys: !,
The highest attainment foryou,
my boy, is to be a man. The
world is full Of counterfeits But
it is a grand thing to stand up
right in defence of truth and
principle. When persecution come
some hide their faces until the
storm passes by: others can be
bought for q mess Of pottage.
From such a one turn away. But
stand by friend; be a man; do
not run away when danger threat
ems to overwhelm him or your.
self. Read good books and read
mems faces. The eye is the win
dow Of the soul; use your eyes
and hold your tongue. If opposi-
ton comes meet it manfully. II
success crowns your efforts bear
it quietly. Do your own thinking
and keepyour own secrets, worship
no man for his wealth nor his
lineage. Fine feathers don't all
ways cover fine birds. Be sober
be honest, be just in all your deal
ing with the world; but true.
They will sell you for money or
popularity; don't trust them.
Wear but one face and let it be
an honest one.

Many young people think that
an idle life must bel pleasant one;
but there are mono who enjoy 50
little, and arc such burdens to
themselves as those who have
nothing to do. Those who work
hard oil day enjoy their short per.
iods Of rest and recreation so
much that they are apt to think If
their whole lives were spent in
rest and recreation it would be
the most pleasant Of all. But this
is . sad mistake, as they would
soon find out, If they made q trial
Of the life they think 50 agreeable.
One who is never busy can never
enjoy rest, for it implies q relief
from previous labor; and if our
whole time was spent in amusing
ourselves, we should find it more
wearisome than the hardest days
work Recreation is only valu-
able as it bends US; the idle can
know nothing Of it. Many peo-
pie leave off business and settle
down to . life Of enjoyment, but
they generally find that they are
not SO happy as they were before,
and they are often glad to return
to their occupation to escape the
miseries Of incidence.

than three years old, toddled on
to the track, There was no way
to save her. TWAS impossible to
stop or even to slack much in
that distance, as my train was
heavy and the grade descending.
In ten seconds it would have been
all over, and after reversing and
applying the brake, j shut my
eyes. | didn't want to see any
more. As we slowed down, my
fireman stuck his head out of the
cab window to see what I'd stop
ped for, when he laughed and
shouted to me, Jim, look here 4
/ looked and there was a great
big black New Foundland dog
holding that little girl in his
mouth, leisnrely walking toward
the house where she evidently be-
longed. She was kicking and
crying, SO that | knew she wasn't

the hair by q peculiar process

Young beginners in life's morning,
Don't forget the rainy day;
sunshine cannot last forever,
Or the heart be always gay
save the dime and then the dollar,
Lay up something as you roam
Choose some blooming spot of beauty,
Some fair lot, and ''plant home."
You, too, who have babes around you,
Coming up to take your place;
Give them something to remember,
Homestead memories let them trace.
Would you feel the pride of manhood,
Let the sun your dwelling greet,
Breathe the blessed air of freedom,
Own the soil beneath your feet.
You, too, who perhaps have squandered
Life's fair morn--'tis not too late.
start at once to WOO bright Fortune,
Rail no more at so-callel Fate.
Sow the golden seeds of saving
In the rich and quickening loan
spend your last days not with strangers,
Enter Heavens gate from home.

There's formal kiss Of fashion,
And q burning kiss ofpassion,
A fathers kiss,
A mothers kiss.
And sisters kiss to move;
There's a traitors kiss Of gold,
Like a serpent's clammy fold,
A first kiss,
A stolen kiss,
And the thrilling kiss or love;
A meeting kiss,
A maiden kiss,
A kiss when fond hearts sever;.
But the saddest kiss
On earth is this
A kiss to part forever.
