A SENSE OF HONOR.

The following is taken from an
editorial in The Century for Deem
Der:
ssThere is little doubt that the
thing which most needs to be preach
ed to this generation of Americans,
ministers of the gospel, by both cler-
zeal and lay instructors of the youth,
by all who have public influence OF
private authority, ia sense of ho-
norl it must be shown and insisted
upon that every position in life where
one person is employed by another
to do a certain work, imposes an OBJ
legation to fulfill the duties of the
place with an honorable and dis
interested regard for the employer.
it must be shown that this view of
employment applies to the cook, the
errand-boy, the cashier, the leglsla
tor, the Governor, the President.
This is trite, and apparently simple
and perhaps somewhat stupid view of
/ the opportunities of a smart and
ambitious young American of our day,
but unless this commonplace view of
responsibility is laid hold of by in
creasing numbers in the future of
our country, We will not say that oul
society will go to pieces. but we will
say that our calamities will increase,
and that we will get into troubles,
and not soon out Of them, compared
with which the dangers and distresses
of the past will seem almost insight
ficant,

THE HIGHEST JOY-Believe me, [

wish to esteem lightly; often have [
been charmed with the beauties of
nature and refreshed with her houn-
tiful gifts. | have spent many an
hour in sweet meditation and in read
ing the most valuable production of
the wisest men. | have often been
delighted with the conversation of
ingenious, sensible and exalted char
acters; my eyes have been power
fully attracted by the finest produc-
tons of hnman art, and my ears by
enchanting melodies | have found
pleasure when calling into activity
the powers of my own mind; when
residing in my own native land, trav-
cling through foreign parts; when
surrounded by large and splendid
companies, still more when moving
in the small endearing circle of my
own family; yet, to speak the truth
before God, who is my judge, 1 must
confess | know not any joy that is
so dear to me, that SO fully satisfies
the innermost desires of ray mind,
that so enlivens, refines, and elevates
my whole nature, as that which | de-
rive from religion, from faith in

YUCATAN INDIAN HUTS.

The huts are oblong, and rounded
ut the corner. Some are divided in
two by a partition. More generally
the whole family crowd together in
the single apartment. The wall is
formed by putting sticks upright in
the ground and filling the interstices
with mud, or else with mixture
that is afterward smoothed and
white-washed. The roofs are slant
ing and matched, the thatch being
allowed TO fall to within two or three
feet of the ground, to keep off wind
and rain. The surface of the earth
serves flooring, since the inmates can
seldom afford to have it cemented.
The furniture consists of few ham
mocks hung across the room-they
serve as seats by day and beds by
night-sone low chairs, called butaca
(similar in shape to some of the seats
used by the Assyrians and Egyptians
of old, } a wooden bench on which
are the grinding-stones, and an image
of saint in some corner of the
room. The fire place-three stones
placed in triangle on the fioor-is
there too. Chickens, dogs, pigs and
babies all frolic together in these
poor homes, and appear to be toler-
ably happy, if not very well fed.
While every corner of the hut is
Grained with rubbish, its mistress
sometimes sits in the hammock
swinging, as untidy as her house
making artificial flowers to adorr
some wooden image of the Virgin
Harpers Magdzi1ae. -

THE VALUE OF CIVILITY.


Life is made up of little things,
and the neglect of the small courte-
sizes of life is the foundation of mis-
cry in married existence, is the cause
of waning friendships, and the de-
struction of the happiest homes.
Many a serious and lifelong es-
arrangement has begun, not from
want of affection so much as from
lack of that delicate and instructive
appreciation of the feelings of 9TH
ers which makes a person shrink
from saying unpleasant things or
finding fault, unless absolutely
obliged, and in any case to avoid
wounding the offenders sense of dig
nifty, or stirring up within him feel
ings of opposition and animosity.
Many persons profess TO be above
taking offence at honest censure, and
even seem to court criticism, yet it
must be very carefully administered
not to be unpalatable. Even kind
and generous actions are often so
uncouthly performed as to cause
more pain than pleasure, while a re-
proof or denial may be so sweeeten-
ed by courtesy as also to do away
with any sense of modification or
disappointment. Good breeding is
always inclined to form a favorable
judgment, and to give Others the
credit of being actuated by worthy
motives.

their closing eyelids with kiss and

all too soon, when they will lay their
heads upon their pillows lacking

this sweet memory Of happy child
hood, of which no future sorrow or
trouble can rob them.
What is expected of women.-Ob-
servation has shown me that the ma
jority of men expect good deal of
women, s'whatever. = They expect
a woman will always be good-natur-
ed will keep the whole house in or
der; will let nothing be wasted will
bear, and be found fault with; will
never find fault; will have the chill
dren look neat; will cook three meals
a day will always have light bread
will wash and iron, make and mend,
entertain company, and, if possible,
get along without hired help. Yet
they do not, as general thing, exert
themselves overmuch to provide her
with conveniences, still less with
pleasures.
Our morning meal. = Breakfast
should be the most enlivening meal
of the whole day; for then we are to
be nerved for another days duties
and cares, and perhaps for great sor-
rows also. Let there be no exciting
argument, from which personalities
may crop out, around the breakfast
table. Let there be, if possible, only
pleasant topics and affectionate sal
utations, that all may go forth their
separate ways with sweet, peaceful
memories of each other; for some
foot may never again cross the fam
| lily threshold, some eye never wit
ness another days dawning. This
thought, if the busy world were not
so clamorous as to stifle it. would
often arrest the impatient, fretful
words that pain so many tender
| hearts.
Care of conference.-the weak
ness and languor inseparable from
long illness render convalescence
sometimes very tedious and trying
time. The small stock of strength
is unequal to the demands made upon
it, and it should be husbanded in ev-
cry possible way. At night the in
valid should have something to take
the last thing before going to sleep /;
any light nourishment will answer
q cup of cocoa, beef tea, or thin GUS
tard. A delicate sandwich. and, if
stimulant is ordered, glass of wine
taken then will prevent exhaustion
during sleep.
The early morning hours, from
three to five, are the most trying of
the twenty-four. The powers of life
are at their lowest ebb, and should
be reinforced by food. If it is i'm
possible to heat anything, a cold
drink is better than nothing. Half q
pint of milk, with the white of an
egg beaten in it, may be given.
There is usually little appetite al this
early hour, and something must be
| chosen that can be easily taken.
