What pleasure Is grandma to the
happy child who is blessed with one.
He knows he will never find her too
busy, as the mother often is, to at
tend to his numerous wants. She
can always find a button just the
right size. She has always on hand
an unlimited supply Of tail for his
kite. She always has just the right
kind of a piece of string for his top;
and she always has time to mend
his mittens, help him hunt for his
school books, and hear him say that
s'hard line Of spelling" To her with
all his little condolences he goes,
fearing no ridicule, but sure Of such
sympathy AS no one else can give.
To her he unfolds all his plans and
aims, knowing that her faith in him
will discover every element Of sue
cess in them, because they are his.
To her does the trembling little
transgressor go with his confession
OF wrong doing, for she can explain to
mother SO much better than he can,
how he meant to obey, but "before
he thought he did the very thing
forbidden.

A good many people spend all their
lives hunting for a place in this
world that they never intend to ell.
They never settle down to anything
with any sort Of restful or content.
full feeling. What they are doing
now is not by any means the work
that is suited to their abilities. They
have a sunny ideal Of very noble
life in which their powers would
have free scope, and where they
could make q very bright record.
But in their present position they
cannot do much of anything and
there is little use to try. Their life
is humdrum and a prosy outline,
and they can accomplish nothing
really worthy and beautiful. So
they go on discnntented with their
own lot and signing for another;and
while they sigh the years glide away
and soon they will come to an end,
to find that they have missed every
opportunity of doing anything wor-
thy of rational being on the pas
sage to eternity. The truth is,one's
vocation is never some far off posi-
bility. 1t is always the round Of
duties that the passing hour brings.
No day is commonplace il we only
had eyes to see its splendor. There
is no duty that comes to our hand
but brings us the possibility Of king
ly service.

After women pass middle age
they lose considerable amount of
their height, not By STOPPING ,men do
but by actual collapse sinking down;
this is mainly to be attributed TO
the perishing Of the muscles that
support the frame in consequence Of
habitual and constant pressure Of
corsets and dependence upon the
artificial support by them afforded.
Every girl who wears corsets that
press upon these muscles and restrict
the free development of the hbres
that form them, relieving them OF
their natural duties of supporting
the spine, indeed incapacitating
them from so doing, may feel sure
she is preparing herself to be a
dumpy woman. A great pity ! Fail
ure Of health among women when
that vigor of youth passes away is
but too patent and but too commonly
cuased by this practice. Let the
man who admires the pieces of pipe
that does duty for a human body
picture to himself the wasted form
and scanned skin. Most women,
from long custom Of wearing these
corsets, are really unaware how
much they are hampered or restrict
ed. A girl of twenty intended by
nature to be one OF her finest speci-
mems gravely assures one that her
corsets are not tight, being the same
size as those she was first put into,
not perceiving her condemnation in
the fact that she has since grown
five inches in height and two in
shoulder breadth. Her corsets are
not too tight because the constant
pressure has prevented the natural
development Of heart and lung
space. The dainty waist of the
poets is precisely that flexible Slim
ness that is destroyed by corsets.
The form resulting from them is not
slim, but piece of pipe, and not
quite as flexible.

Agricultural COurtship.

A potato went out on mash,
And sought an onion bed;
That's pie for me r. said the squash
And all the beets turned red;
go way the onion, weeping, cried,
"Your love cannot be;
The pumpkin be your lawful bride,
You cantelope with me.
But onward still the tuber came,
And laid down at her feet;
"You caulifower by any name;
And it will smell as wheat;
And too am an early rose,
And you I've come to see;
So don't turn up your lovely nose
But spinachat with me"
IL do not carrot all to wed,
So go, sir, II you please,
The modest onion meekly said,
"And lettuce, pray, have peas.
Go, think that you have never seen
Myself, or smell my sigh;
Too long maiden have been
For favors in your rye.
All, spare cuss,' the tuber prayed;
my cherryshed bride you'll be.
You are the only weeping maid
That's current now with me l"
And as the willy tuber spoke,
He caught her oy surprise,
An giving her an artichoke
Devoured her with his eyes. &C.
