Origin of the Names in the Week.

In the museum at Berlin, in the hall devo-
ted to Northern antiquities they have the
representations from the idols from which
the names OF the days of our week are Derry
ed
From the idol of the Sun comes Sunday.
This idol is represented with his face like the
sun, holding burning wheel, with both
hands on his breast, signifyng his course
around the world.
The idol of the Moon from which comes
Monday, is habited in short coat, like a
man, but holding the moon in his hands.
Tulsco, from which comes Tuesday, was
one of the most ancient and popular gods of
the Germans, and represented in his garments
of skins, according to their peculiar manner
of clothing; the third day of the week was
dedicated to his worship.
Wooden, from which comes Wednesday,
was a valiant prince among the Saxons. His
image was prayed to for victory.
Thor, from whence comes Thursday, is
seated in bed, with twelve stars over his
head, holding sceptre in his hand
Friga, from whence we have Friday, is
represented with drawn sword in his right
hand and bow in his left
Setter, from which is Saturday, has the ap-
pcarance of perfect Indebtedness he is thin
visaged, long haired, with long beard. He
carries water. pail in his right hand, where
in are fruits and flowers.

RETTER THAN GOLD.

Better than grandeur, better than gold,
Than rank and titles thousand fold,
lis healthy body and mind at ease
And simple pleasures that always please;
heart that can feel for another's woe.
With sympathies large enough to enfold
All men as brothers, is better than gold.
Better than gold is conscience clear,
Though toiling for bread in an humble sphere,
Doubly blessed with content and health,
Untired by the lusts and cares of wealth.
Lowly living and lofty thought
Adorn and ennoble poor mans cot,
For minds and morals in natures plan
Are the genuine tests of gentleman.
Better than gold is the sweet repose
OF the sons of toll when the labors close.
Better than gold is the poor mans sleep,
And the balm that drops on his slumbers deep
Bring sleeping draughts on the downy bed
Where luxury pillows its aching head
Tho toiler simple opiate deems
shorter route to the land of Dreams
Better than gold is thinking mind,
That in the realm of books can find
treasure SURPRISING Australian ore,
And live with the great and good of yore.
The sage's lore and the poets lay,
The glores of empires passed away;
The worlds great dream will thus unfold
And yield pleasure better than gold
Better than gold is a peaceful home
Where all the fireside characters come,
The shrine of love, the haven of life,
Halowed by mother, or sister, or wife,
However humble the home may be,
Or tried with sorrow by heavens decree,
The blessings that never were bought or sold
And centre there are better than gold.

persisted in her plea. "Please give me q
penny. My mother hasn't had mouth
full to eat for three days, and she's got
sixty-eight children"
The last part of this statement was suf-

The appeal was repeated through two
