factories, let not the wife be easily dis
gusted at the begrimed hands or the
unsavory aroma. Your gains are one,
your interests are one, your losses are
one; lay hold of the work of life with
both hands. -Four hands to fight the
battles. -Four eyes to watch the danger.
-Four shoulders on which to carry the
trials. 1t is sad thing when the
painter has wife that does not like
pictures. 1t is very sad thing when a
wife is not suited unless her husband
has what is called 'genteel business.
AS far as l understand genteel bust
ness it is something to which man
goes at ten o'clock in the morning and
comes home at two or three o'clock in
the afternoon, and gets large sum of
money for doing nothing. That is,
l believe, a genteel business, and
there has been many wife who has
made the mistake of not being satisfied
until the husband has given up the tan
ming of hides or the turning of ban
listers, or the building of the walls, and
put himself in circles where he has
nothing to do but smoke cigars and
drink wine, and get himself into habits
that upset him, going down in the mael-
strom, and taking his wife and children
with him. "-Zion's Waterman.

Be Cheerful.

Look on the bright side of life. An
unhappy disposition brings the wrinkles
to ones face. Fretting makes one
look old faster than work or poverty.
Fault-finding eats away at the heart
like worm at tree and makes one
withered. Poor air and a cheerful
heart are better for the health than
good air and a gloomy heart. People
look ten years younger when they smile
than when they groan. A jolly old
lady rolls back old age. Cheerfulness
sets the blood flowing from head to
foot, kindles fire in the eyes, brings
beauty to the cheeks and gives quick
ness to the step. Laughing is con-
slant tonic which wakes up the mind
thrills the heart and strengthens the
will. Cheerful people get well quicker
than gloomy ones. Cheerful persons
are sick less. There are some people
who never seem happy only when they
are fault-fnding. Misery is their joy.
If there is any bright side, look at it
keep looking at it and it will grow:
and if there is no bright side, then
polish up the dark side.-Rev. Smith

Sympathy of Occupation.

/ advise you all to cultivate sympathy
of occupation. Sir James M'Intosh,
one of the most eminent and elegant
men that ever lived, while standing at
the very height of his eminence, said
to great company of scholars: " My
wife made me. She ought to be the
advising partner in every firm. She
ought to be interested in the losses and
gains of shop and store. She ought to
have a right-she has right-to know
everything. If man goes into bust
ness transaction that he dare not tell
his wife of, you may depend that he is
on the way to bankruptcy or moral ruin.
There may be some things that he does
not wish to trouble his wife with, but
if he dare not tell her, he is on the road
TO discontinue. On the other hand
the husband ought to be sympathetic
with the wife's occupation. 1t is no
easy thing to keep house. Many a
woman that could have endured mar
tyrdom as well as Margaret, the Scotch
girl, has actually been worn out by
house management. There are a thou

Why Major Went to Church.

| once visited a pleasant country
house, the owner of which had a pow
erful and sagacious dog called Major.
This dog was highly priced by his mas
ter and by the people of the neighbor-
hood. He had saved many lives. Once
when swing-rope became entangled
around the neck of little girl, Major
held her up until help came. One day
the butcher brought in his bill for
Majors provisions. Majors master
thought it altogether too large, and,
shaking the paper angrily at The dog,
he said " See here, old fellow, you
never ate all that meat-did you?" The
dog looked hard at the bill, shook him
self all over. regarded the butcher with
contempt, and then went back to his
rug, where he stretched himself out
with low growl of dissatisfaction.
The next Sunday, just as service began
at the village church, into my friend S
pew vaulted Major. The Major kept
perfectly quiet until we all arose for
prayer; then he sprang upon the seat,
stood on his hind legs, placed his fore
paw upon the front of the pew behind,
and stared gravely and reproachfully
into the face of the butcher, who looked
very much confused, and turned first
red and then pale. The whole congre-
CATION smiled and Uttered. Majors
master at once took the dog home. But
the butcher was more considerate in his
charges from that time. Evidently he
eltmortfied and conscience-stricken. -

Novel -Killed.

Some years ago young lady began
to visit her pastors study as a religious
inquirer. 1t was during a revival, and
on every hand her young friends were
coming to Christ. But there she stood
at the very threshold of the kingdom,
wistfully looking over, as if her feet
were chained. She made no advance.
Her pastor and her friends were equally
puzzled. Prayer was offered for her,
and the plainest instructions given; but
she remained unmoved, excepting to
regret that she could not become a
Christian. AT last, after three months
labor and anxiety, her pastor said, &C.
can do nothing with Sophie l.; she
is perfectly unmanageable. l doubt if
she will ever yield to the claims of the
gospel" What is the trouble? Can
you not discover the obstacle in her
way?" was asked. 81 find she is an,
uaUeterdte n0uel-redder, and have come
to the conclusion that this will keep her
out of the kingdom" "Can she not
be persuaded to give up her novels?"
" That is not the point entirely. She
has wasted her sensibilities over unreal
objects so long-so continually reversed
right and wrong, looking at vice in the
garb of virtue, and at virtue in that of
unworthiness and injustice, that she
has destroyed her moral sense. She
assents to truth, but seems to have no
power to grasp it; she knows what is
right, but has no energy of will to do it.

Sorrow.

Sorrow is not an accident, occurring
now and then-it is the very wool
which is woven into the warp of life
God has created the nerves to agonize
and the heart to bleed, and before a
man dies almost every nerve has
thrilled with pain and every affection
has been wounded. The account of
life which represents it as probation is
inadequate; so is that which regards it
chiefly as system of rewards and pun
ishments. The truest account of this
mysterious existence seems to be that
it is intended for the development of
the souls life, for which sorrow is in
dispensable. Every son of man who
would attain the true end of his being
must be baptized with fire. 1t is the
law of our humanity, as that of Christ,
that we must be perfected through suf-
fering. And he who has not discerned
the divine sacredness of sorrow and
the profound meaning which is con-
cealed in pain, has yet to learn what
life is. The cross, manifested as the
necessity of the highest life, alone in
terprets TT. W. Robertson.

If the day is warm we shall see
plenty of Venetian boys swimming in
the canals, wearing nothing but pair
of light trousers, and they care so little
for our approach that we are afraid our
gondolas will run over some of them.
The urchins are very quick and active,
however, and we might as well try to
touch fish as one of them. / once
saw Venetian girl about sixteen years
old, who was sitting upon the steps of
house teaching her young brother to
swim. The little fellow was very small,
and she had tied cord around his
waist, one end of which she held in her
hand. She would let the child get into
the water and paddle away as well as
he could. When he seemed tired or
had gone far enough, she pulled him
in. She looked very much as if she
were fishing, with a small boy for
bait.-St. Nicholas.

The Model Chickens.

Our village is the county seat of a
county in western state. We have no
saloons in this county, and the cows
and pigs do not often run in our streets.
But we have plenty of chickens. They
run all over our sidewalks, and scratch
in all the streets. In the midsummer
OF 1885 we began to notice an old hen
with fine brood of chickens. They
would come up in front of our home,
and cross over to the open space around
the courthouse. In a few weeks we
missed the old hen, but the chickens
continued to wander about in large
vacant lot near us. Later in the sea-
son they were often seen upon the
main street, two or three blocks away
from their home. We began to call
them the village chickens" and the
county Chickens" but as we looked
at them from day to day we all said
they were " the model chickens" Some
of grandmother's little ones have been
raising chickens and will like to know
why we call these the model chickens.
The first thought about them was that
their number-not too large, not too
small-just seven, and you know this
L
next thought is they were very well
trained by a very busy and faithful
mother. She taught them how to take
care of themselves, and showed them
where food was plenty if they would
work for it. They were Industrious.
They never seemed to waste any time,
and they always worked together. They
were through the whole season a united
family. If one started for a grass
hopper all the rest would follow. They
came out together from their home in
the morning, and returned together in
the evening. and always went to the
same place at night. They never made
any mistake about their home. They
were early risers, and, like well-trained
children, they were early at rest. Hence
they grew very fast. But one of the
best things about these chickens is that
they never gave anybody any trouble.
We never saw them in anybody's gar
den or yard, but all through the day
they were in the street, and running
over the vacant lots. They were neither
very wild nor very tame, but seemed to
act as though they had a right to the
street, and the toughest boys did not
modest them. Don't you think they
had wise mother? Possibly some OF
grandmother's children might learn
some good lessons from these model
chickens. We all feel in our western
home that these chickens have given
us great deal of happiness, and we
should like to raise some of the same
kind this year.-Rer. S. j. Rogers.

Christian Earnestness.

"What are your eXertions? Are they
not few and languid? An occasional
retirement, hasty performance of pri-
vate devotion, formal service at the
family altar, a forgetful hearing of the
Word, without self-denial, without tax
ing up your cross, without laboring for
the meat that endureth to everlasting
life, without striving to enter in at the
strait gate, without fighting the good
fight of faith and taking the kingdom of
heaven by force. O, this vile modera-
ton! This guilty relaxation, instead of
going forward, and deeming nothing
done while anything remains to do! +"
