HABITS OF AUTHORS.

Wadsworth composed his verses
while walking, carried them in his
memory, and got his wife or daugh-
ter to write them down on his return.
When a visitor at Rydal Mount asked
to see the poets study, the maid is
reported to have shown him little
room containing handful of books
lying about on the table, sofa and
shelves, and to have remarked 'tThis
is the masters library, where he
keeps his books, but" returning to
the door, s'his study is out-of-doors,
whereupon She curtsied the visitor
into the garden again. Landor also
used to compose while walking, and
therefore always preferred to walk
alone. Buckle walked every morn
ing for quarter of an hour before
breakfast, and said that, having
adopted this custom upon medical
advice, it had become necessary.
Heat or cold, sunshine or rain,
made no difference to him either for
that morning stroll or for the after
noon walk, which had its appointed
time and length, and which he would
rarely allow himself to curtail, either
|
for business or for visits. Equally
careful was Longfellow in the pre-
servation of his health. He persist
ed In outdoor exercise, even when
the weather was the reverse of pleas
ant. Both in the spring and autumn.
when raw and clustering winds pre-
vailed, he never omitted his daily
walk, though he might go no further
than the bounds of his garden. Dar-
win was at one time fond of horse
back exercise, but after the death of
his favorite horse, some ten or twelve
years ago, he never rode again, but

or along the pleasant footpaths
thrugh the lovely fields of Kent.
Walking was Macaulay's favorite
recreation, but, like Leigh Hunt, he
seems to have been unable to sever
himself from his books. He once
said he liked nothing so well as to bury
himself in some great library, and
never pass walking hour without {
book before him. Certainly he could
never walk without his book. s'He
walked about London reading; he
roamed the lanes of Surrey reading
and the new and surprising spectacle
3 of the sea-so suggestive of revery
and brooding thought-could not Sc
! duce him from his books" Macau
lay reminds us of Thirlwall, who
whether eating, walking or riding
: was never to be seen without a book

PHYSICAL STRENGTH OF
WOMEN.

One of the most striking things in
all Europe, says lady who visited
that country recently, was the ply
sical strength of the German women.
They till the fields, they tend the
vineyards, they gather in the harvest
and take care of the stock, and do
the drudgery of the household be-
side, and yet, coarse as they may be,
their high health and sturdy appear
ance show that it agrees with them.
If women in Germany can do all
this, and American women would be
killed by the half of it, it behooves
our hygienic experts to inquire into
the health and strengthening quail
tiles of beer and cabbage, which are
the chief articles of diet on which
these sturdy women thrive. Or
whether the work III the fields and
vineyards is not more conducive to
health than hanging over the red-hot
stove, with the thousand or more
steps implied in getting up three
meals day. Anyhow, whether it
be in beer and cabbage, or fresh air
and necessity, we need some of it in
this country. Some of our house.
wives look more tired, more used up,
more completely worn out than la
borer in rice field or galley slave.
Now, perhaps the high health of the
German woman is a little too rude
and fiorid for the American taste,
still it would be grand triumph for
the experts if they could devise a
system of beer and cabbage, and
housework, that would give our
American women fair health and de-
cent nerves without their having to
go into the outdoor employments,
which in this country are deemed
only fit for men. This problem is
worth studying. 1t would lift the
pail from millions of women. If
fresh air and beer and cabbage are
productive of health in Germany in
what way could their use be modified
to benefit American women?

WISE WORDS.

Drinking water neither makes a
man sick, nor in debt, nor his wife a
widow.
In the adversely of our best friends
we often find something that is not
displeasing to us.
If you would know one of the mi
nor secrets of happiness, it is this:
cultivate cheap pleasures.
Perfect valor consists in doing
without witnesses all we should be
capable of doing before the world.
We are reader to pardon those
who laugh at our gravity than those
who do not laugh at our jokes.
If you hit the mark you must aim
little above it; every arrow that
flies feels the attraction of the earth.
We cannot live on probabilities.
The faith in which we can live brave
ly and die in peace must be cer-
tainty, so far as it processes to be
faith a. all, or it is nothing.
Whatever perplexes confronts the
truth seeker when he endeavors to
understand the mysteries of exist
ence, the path of right living runs
like shining way across the dark
ness.
Satire is sort of glass, wherein
beholders generally discover every
body's face but their own-which is
the chief reason for the kind of re-
ception it meets IN the world, and
that it offends so few.

has been done under former secreta-
ries, and the influence he has eXerted
has already had its effect upon the
army. Both his public and private
life are on high plane. Nothing in
either reflects anything but credit
upon the Lincoln name. He holds
his fathers name in high honor, and
those most intimate in his family cir
Gle say it is the main ambition of his
life to do nothing unworthy of his
great father. He is a man of brains,
of original thought, of sound and
logic mind, of most excellent judg-
ment, and in all respects matured
beyond his years. This could not
be otherwise, where a thoughtful
youth was passed in the very crucible
of our great struggle for national ex-
istence, while his father grappled
with the gigantic tasks before him.
The number is growing fast Of those
who hope that when Illinois is called
| in the next national convention, she
will respond again with the name
which first gave the republican party
victory.

A NEW CREED FOR CONGRE-
GATIONALISTS.

The commission which was appoint
ed at the instance of the National
Congregational council, held IN St.
Louis in 1880, to prepare statement
of belief, has concluded its work and
made its report, according to instruc-
ton, ''not to this council, but to the
churches and to the world through
the public PRESS The creed which
they have reported processes belief in
God the Father, in Jesus Christ his
only Son, and in the Holy Spirit, one
only God; in Gods providence and
in mans free will and responsibility
in the sin of our first parents and the
alienation of all men from God, so
that there is ''no salvation from the
guilt and power of sin, except through
Gods redeeming grace" in God's
natural revelation of himself to man
through conscience and providence,
and in supernatural revelation
through the prophets, and through
Jesus Christ; in the Holy Scriptures,
written under the special guidance of
the Holy Spirit, which are the author
itative standard of religious teach
ing; in the love of God most fully
expressed in the redemtive work of
his Son, "who, by his humiliation,
his holy obedience, his sufferings,
his death on the cross, and his res
direction, became perfect Redeem
er," whose 'ssacrifce" 'sdeclares the
righteousness of Cod" and is our
only ground of forgiveness in the
resurrection and the ascension of our
Lord into Heaven, whence he sends
the Holy Spirit to convict of sin and
lead to repentance and faith. where
by those who turn to righteousness,
and trust in Jesus Christ as their Re-
deemer, receive forgiveness and be-
come the children Of God; in sancti-
fication through the indwelling of the
Spirit and obedience to the truth; in
the Kingdom of God, of which Christ
is the head, unto whom we have ac-
cess with no intervention of priest
or saint; in the Spiritual Church of
Christ, comprising all believers,
whose duty it is to associate in local
churches for spiritual growth and for
the conversion of the world, and that
these churches, under the guidance
of the Holy Spirit, may determine
their organization and forms of wor
ship, set apart their own ministers,
and should cooperate for the work
of Christ; in the Lords Day; in the
sacrament of baptism and the Lord S
supper; and in the ultimate preva-
lence of Christ's Kingdom over all
the earth, the resurrection of the
dead, the final judgment whose is
sues shall be everlasting punishment
and everlasting life.

See the land, her Easter keeping,
Rises as her Maker rose;
Seeds so long in darkness sleeping,
Burst at last from winter SHOWS.
Earth with heaven above rejoices;
Fields and gardens hail the spring;
Shaughs and woodlands ring with voices,
While the wild birds build and sing.
You to whom your Maker granted
Powers to those sweet birds unknown,
Use the craft by God implanted
Use the reason not your own.
Here, while heaven and earth rejoices,
Each his Easter tribute bring
Work of fingers, chant of voices,
Like the birds who build and sing.

The Japanese Plan.

In Japan
The curious man
Can find out woman's age by plan
She has over there
Ofarranging her hair
As only japanese lady can.
A loop two more,
A hairpin less
BY signs like these is the truth betrayed;
So that looking her oer
It is easy to guess
Whether she be wife, widow maid.
IT'S style
'Twould be worth while
For us to import from that Eastern isle;
Though many maid,
/ am much afraid,
Would such fashion at once revile.
If hairpin
Would settle a doubt
The American feminine III engage,
To be safe on that score
Would leave those out
That were most likely to tell her age.
No. 'Twon't do,
That is true:
And he who is anxious to interview
The female sex
And their temper vex
By The impudent question ''How old are you?"
If he would know
The truth exact
The prying, spying, curious man
BE had better go,
When his trunks are packed
And spend the rest of his days in Japan.
