The religion of Confucius.

of ConfuciuS himself? 1t must be an
swered: He accepted what he found with
out laying stress upon any special doc
trines. While reverencing an unseen
divine power, he yet never smoke of it as
personal. He believed in spirits, con-
formed to ceremonies, and did not check
special prayers. Once, when sick, his
friends asked that prayers should be made
for his recovery. Is that" said he the
proper thing to do ?" " 1t IS so set down"
they answered, in the sacred book" 'Ad-
dress your prayers, etc. He then uttered
this memorable sentence: The prayer of
Confucius is constant" Men observed that
he sacrificed to the dead as if they We're
present; yet he evaded all questions con-
corning them. Shall we serve the
spirits of the dead ?" they asked; his
answer was, If you cannot serve

Italians Who Leave Italy.

Italy does not even grow a sufficiency of
cereals for her own wants, albeit the area
of arabic land is reckoned at i, 10000 hec-
tares, u1,2l5,o00 acresl. The average yield
OF corn per hectare is equal to IL hectoliters,
as compared with an average yield of %
hectoliters in England, % in Holland, 20
in Belgium, 20 in Germany and Is in
France. Facts like these should make US
more tolerant of our own variable, yet not
unkindly climate, and less envious of that
blue Italian sky under which, while there
are so much of grandeur and beauty,sthere
is also so terrible an amount of misery
and want. The young and vigorous who
desire to better themselves leave the coun-
try in droves. Those of them who can

FARM FINANCE.
How Accounts Should be Requirements
of Calculation to Consider.

In all, or nearly all reports of farm
transactions relating to money, there seem
to be certain faults which spring from a
lack of knowledge of the principles of
finance; capital owned is eonfounded with
capital borrowed, interest with profit, and
wages with profit. These mistakes lead to
confusion. The greatest pains may be
taken to arrive at just conclusions but if
care is not taken to give each account its
proper position or value, the result, on
paper, viii often be at variance with the
reality. l have seen printed reports of
farm crop accounts from which, after the
closest study, l could not arrive at coDclu-
sions. The accounts were jumbled, and
the results misleading. The foundation of
every mans business is capital. The result
of tn proper use of capital is profit. The
cost of the means OF arriving at this
profit is wages. If capital is borrowed,
or land rented the cost of the use OF
! either is called interest or rent. The two
| are exactly similar. Interest is a rent paid
! for the use of money. OF the two. rent is
generally less than interest, because land
is safer in another persons hands than
money. 1t is generally from the improper
use of interest that confusion arises in ac-

SPEAK KINDLY.

Speak kindly to the aged one,
Whose form is bent with years
Whose heart is filed with grief and woe
And eyes bedimmed with tears
Speak kindly to the aged one,
He has not long to stay
Twill help 10 cheer thy after years
When he is far away.
Speak kindly to the erring one,
Remembering erst the while
That gentle words with kindness spoke
Is better than TO reyile:
We know the world is full Of sin,
And many go astray,
But gentle words may help to win
Them from their sinful way.
And if brother he should err,
Or sister need thy care,
Speak kindly to them and the world
To them viii seem more fair;
Perchance you, too, may have your faults,
And long for kindness, too,
Then do by others as you would
That they should do by you.

WOMEN SwIMMERs.-Miss Agnes Beck
with is one of the most remarkable of lady
swimmers. Many will remember her great
swim from Sandy Hook to Rockaway Inlet
IN heavy sea about two years ago, on
which occasion she swan sixteen miles in
four hours, fiftv-nine minutes and ten Sec
onds. Her long swim of one hundred
hours in the Westminster Aquarium in
1880 was also a remarkable feat. When
but fourteen years old. or in 1875, Miss
Beckwith accomplished the unprecedented
feat by woman of swimming five miles
in the Thames river in one hour and nine
minutes, and year later she swan twenty
miles in hours and twenty-five minutes.
One OF the most remal kable feats on rec
ord, however, was also accomplished by a
female ssnatator, Miss Edith Johnson, who
swan and tioated for thirty-one consecu-
tive hours in the Black Pool (England)
baths. Other women have also distin-
guished themselves IN the water. Miss
Theresa Johnson. Miss Laura Saigeman
and Miss Emily Parker have all got
through the water for given distances in
faster time than any other women. Lur-
line, the water queen, was wont to remain
under water long enough to partake Of
| light refreshments, and at the Oxford Mu-
sic Hall, in London, in 1881, she remained
submerged for two minutes and fifty-one
seconds Exchange.
