He Was ssMashed."

The mud was about three feet deep on
the streets. Some good Samaritan had
placed a few planks on the crossing, but
there was not room enough for two to
pass. Portly was going down the street,
and was right in the center of the cross
ing before he noticed that a richly
dressed lady, heavily veiled, was ap-
preaching from the opposite, corner.
aAh," thought he, She is beautiful
"What a form, and what a tiny foot, |
would like to get glimpse of her sweet
face. will step aside and allow her to
pass; then she may raise her veil. I
might easily retrace my steps, but no.
what do I care for a little mud" So
with a sweet smile as the lady ap.
preached, he gallently stepped aside,
filling his shoes full of the rich black
mud.
"How very kind of you; Robert,
said the lady, raising her veil.
"The ID, is that you, Annie7 ?" he
growled, as be brushed the bottom of his
pants with his pocket-handkerchief,
aWhy the dickens couldn't you wait Oh
the corner till I had got across? just
see what you've made me do. These
pants are ruined, aud you know I only
bought them last week. Well, you'll
have nice job cleaning them now when
you get home," and he passed on, think.
irg what fool he had been trying to
"mash" his own wife.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words.

Our daily actions speak either for good
or i'll. No matter how much We may
preach, if we do not verify it by our &C.
tions, it is oft,times lost, but a good ex-
ample is lesson of itself. If we would
teach child who has arrived at years of
understanding, how much easier it would
be to teach him by our example than by
preaching to him. Children's minds are
very susceptible to the influences that
surround them. How common is it to
hear children say, "My mother says So,
or my father says So" How important
then are all our actions, especially in the
family where young minds are being
moulded. Think of this, parents, that
your children's minds and habits are
being shaped ands formed from yours.
The family is training school, and if
you want your children to grow up to be
good, useful citizens, you must set the
example. If you want them to become
Christian men and women, you must set
the. example You cannot expect o
child to grow to love the Sabbath school,
if he is allowed to go or not as he pleases,
and you never go with him. The opin.
ions expressed in the family are treasured
up by the children. We learn more
from precept ands example than by
thought and study. Speak little, but
practice much.-Household.

The Men Who Succeed.

Says the Manyacturers' Ga=ette "The
young men who receive promotion are
the men who do not drink on the sly.
They are not the men who are always
at the front whenever there is any strike,
nor are they the,men who watch for the
clock to strike twelve and leave their
picks hanging in the air. They are not
the men who growl if they are required
to attend to some duty few minutes
after the whistle has sounded. They are
the men usually who pay the closest at.
tention to the details Of their business,
who act as though they were trying to
work for their employers interest instead
of to beat him at every crook and turn.
They are the men who give the closest
attention to every practical detail, and
who look continually to see whether
they can do any better or not. This class
of men are never out of ajob. They are
scarce. They never strike, they never
loaf, and they do not ask for their pay
two or three weeks before pay day."

Thank God for affliction. A man that

Trouble, trouble Thank God for

How an Insect Breathes.

If we take any moderately large insect,
say wasp or hornet, we can see, even
with the naked eye, that series of small, j,
spot.lik marks run along either side of
the body. These apparent spots, which
arc generally eighteen or twenty in num-
ber, are, in fact, the apcrtures through
which air is admitted into the system,
and are generally found in such man
ner that no extraneous matter can by
any possibility find entrance. Sometimes
they are furnished with pair of horny
lips, which can be opened and closed at
the will Of the insect; in other cases
they are densely fringed with still inter.
lacing bristles, forming filter, which
allows air, and air alone to pass. But
the apparatus, of whatever character it
may be, is always so wonderfully perfect
in its action that it has been found i'm.
possible to inject the body of q dead
insect with even so subtitle medium MS
spirits of wine, although the subject WIS
first immersed in the fluid and then plac'
ed beneath the receiver of an air pump.

THE MEMORY.

We have long thought that teachers
ought to give special attention to the, de-
] .yelopment Of the memory of their pupils.
How easy it is fora child to fall intoea

they study to recite, and not to learn.
Itseems to US that, by proper effort, the
teachers could break up or prevent the
formation of sucha habit--a habit that
has atendency to weaken, if not hope
lessly ruin, the memory. Let the teach
er himself read several books carelessly,
indiferently, and he will soon find that
he can not only not retain anything ne
reads, butexperienees considerable Diff
cultS ID his ;eEortsSto fix his attention
upon any thing. Toremember any thing
we must feel an interest in that thing.
To impress a lesson upon the minds of
your class you must, by some means, STIR
up within them ntcrestin hsslesson.
Frequent reviews serve, aggood purpose.
Incidental conversations with your pupils
about some lesson they passed over a
month ago, itseems e. would have a
tendency to impress The facts or princi-
pies in that lesson. But howsabout q

development Of the memory? Have

of the necessity? Suppose you read

and the next morning at the same time

You read. Read another, and, the next
morning, Gallon. another pupil to repeat
it. Keep this up. regularly, and, after
week OF tso, ask some one to repeat the
first story that was read. We suggest
this plan for the benefit of any who may
be disposed to give it a test. Perhaps
you have a better one: if SO, let us hear
it. Don't keep. tito yourself 1.-the other
teachers want it. The memory can be
developed, and ought to be developed:

We are told that Thurlow Weed adopted
4 the plan of recalling, at night, the events
of the day and :narraLing them in their
proper order 10 bis wife. Doubtless the
results were bene6eial. Just before dis.
missing your school in the afternoon, call
on one of the spupils to state concisely
what he learned during the day. The
fact that any one Of the number y liable
to be called upon for such statement,
will, no doubt make them more attentive
to their lessons and to their surroundings
and, perhaps, win give them more reten-
tive memories. These plans we suggest
not as the 6es, but. .as plaas; nevertheless,
and perhaps better than noSplans at all.
