Announcing Engagements.
Domestic Monthly.

When couple is engaged there is
seldom any sensible reason why all the
world should not know it, and there
fore the new fashion of announcing en-
gagements just before a prominent ball
and having the ladies and gentlemen
congratulated by their friends is to be
commended. To be sure, if the en-
gagement is afterward broken, the
thought of these public congratulations
would be embarrassing; but if the
fashion tends to prevent promises of
marriages being lightly given it will
serve good purposes. The girl who
might say yes when asked to marry,
with the mental reservation that if any
thing better comes along she will con-
trive not to keep her word, will think
twice about it if she has to go through
with such a form. Marriage engage
ments are frequently too lightly entered
into and too lightly set aside. The
engagement should be nearly as sacred
contract as the marriage itself, and
i. should be such an engagement that
both parties would be proud to have it
known among all their common ac-
ouointanceS

Jesus Lover of My Soul.

"Jesus lover of my SOUL"
Bids me in His bosom stay,
And though billows round me roll,
l am safely hid away;
For He holds me in lis arms,
Quite beyond the tempest's reach;
And He whispers to my heart
Words unknown to human speech.
"Other refuge have I none,"
He my habitation is;
Here no evil can befalI,
/ am kept in perfect peace,
I am covered all day long,
With the shadow of His wing;
Dwell in safety through the night,
Waking, this is what sing.
"Thou, 0 Christ, art all I want"
Rests my helpless soul in Thee;
Thou wilt never leave alone,
Nor forget to comfort me.
Thou hast saved my soul from death,
Thou hast scattered doubts and fears,
And the sunshine of Thy face
Sweetly drieth all my tears.
"Thou of Life the fountain art"
Thou dost wash me white as snow;
I'm content to dwell apart
From all else, Thy love to know.
Blessed Sun of Righteousness,
so love to look on Thee,
That my eyes are growing blind
To the things once dear to me.

why Contagious Diseases Attack
but Once.
MedicnL World.

Professor Tyndall thus endeavors to
explain the immunity obtained against
a second attack of contagious disease:
sOne of the most extraordinary and un-
accountable experiences in medicine
was the immunity secured by single
attack of a communicable disease against
future attacks of the same malady.
Smallpox, typhoid, or scarlatina, for
example, was found as a general rule to
occur only once in lifetime OF the In
dividual, the successful passage through
the disorder apparently rendering the
body invulnerable. Reasoning from
analogy, l have ventured to express the
opinion that the rarity of second at
tacks of communicable disease was due
to the removal from the system, by the
parasitic crop, of some ingredient nee
essary to the growth and propagation
of the parasite

The Art of Conversation.
All The Year Round.

AU the Year Kounu.
The real fault we commit is our fail
ure to recognize the pleasure that is
given by the narration of even the most
trivial incident in carefully apportion-
ate words. No one in talking takes the
trouble to form his sentences according
to the most ordinary rules of grammar.
Our national shyness has stamped US,
among other vulgarisms, with that false
shame which makes us fear the charge
of pedantry if we talk in other than the
most clumsy and disjointed way. We
are afraid to venture on phrase-a
combination of words that will convey
our meaning of the moment until famil-
iarity has made it commonplace, and
then we drag it in by the head and ears
on every occasion till it becomes nause-
Gus from its frequency. There is
dreary heaviness in our conversation
born of deficient imagination. We
discuss, or rather utter our words about
the most ordinary matters with solem-
nifty which at first sight looks like ear
nestness, but we are not in earnest. We
should resent the imputation. Every
nation has its own peculiar snobbery-
every nation, and each rank in that ma
ton, and class in that rank, and each
individual. One phase of it with us is
the way in which we copy the habits or
manners of the rank above us. The
desire to copy implies deficient tact
and power of observation, and the eff
feet of the copying is very much that OF
the maid-of-all-work in a lodging house
who tries to copy the dress of the ladies
on whom she waits. She has neither
the material out of which to make the
clothes nor the power of wearing the
clothes properly if she had them. The
calmness and absence of emotion oi
patrician manners not unnaturally Sug-
gests imitation. People who from thell
birth upward have been accustomed to
Difference naturally acquire a manner
which takes that Difference for granted
an attitude from which the element
of assertion is eliminated. The favored
classes with whom that is the case have
also feasts of other things besides tht
Difference of their fellows. Treasure
of many kinds are heaped upon then
whether they will or not.

FGXEDNEss OF PRNcIPLFs.-In the life
OF an individual one of the S;rest way
marks of honor is fiXedness Of principles.
The man who is tossed about with every
shifting wind Of opinion or doctrine is not
apt to be either contented with his lot or
successful in any great undertaking. Firm
ness is an clement of success in life. 1t is
not rashness. 1t is not blind devotion to
theories. 1t is not. stubbornness. Hence,
tiXedness of principles implies that we
should have true principles and be firm in
maintaining them. We often meet those
who seem to consider themselves firm and
consistent in advocating and defending
certain positions or certain doctrines,
whereas in reality they have no indepen-
dent thoughts of their own about them,
inasmuch as they received what limited
stock of information they possess second
handed. The Importance of this subject
can never be too deeply impressed upon the
minds of the young.-[Selected.

New PROCESS OF MAKING SuGAR.-The
new process of suGar-making discovered by
Frobach, of Berlin. if it proves equal to all
lutionize the sugar trade. For years it has
been conceded that the present method of
extracting the sugar from the cane is de-
fective and expensive. The new process
dispenses altogether with crushing and
pressing. The cane being cut into strips,
the water is first extracted by alcoholic
vapor, the saccharine being left in the cane.
This is then treated with liquid alcohol. 1t
is asserted that this extracts all the sac
charine. Alterward the sugar is extracted
from the alcohol by being filtered through
lime and chalk. If this process proves sue
cessful it will at once add third to the

KANcAEoos AND THEIR HABITs.-Kanga-
roos are from the hight Of a rabbit to the
hight of 4 man. Bones have been found
III Australia that show them to have been
0ne-third larger there formerly than now.
The female is about one-third smaller than
the male, She has pouch on the front of
her body where she carries her babies.
This she holds open with her handy little
hands while putting them in or taking
them out with her mouth When browsing
they put their fore-feet to the ground: at
other times they rest on the lower half of
their hind legs and thick, strong tail They
are hunted for their flesh, which is delicate
to cat, and for their skins, from which
gloves and shoes are made. The kangaroo
can get over the ground swiftly rod at a
leap. 1t sometimes turns on the dogs and
tears them to pieces with its sharp hinder
claws; or it catches one in its arms and
bounds away to the river and browns him,
and it has been known TO treat man the
same.
