SABBATH-DAY READING.
IF GOD BE IN THE HEART.

Though skies may frown,
And friends prove false,
And fortunes smile depart
The spirit scars
Unheeding each
If God be in the heart.
Tears will not fall,
Save thosessof joy,
If hope still bids US fair,
And boSoms true
Scarce heed q wound
If God still fingers there
The sacred balm
For age designed,
To heal each hidden smaN
Is love and trust
In that tried One
Who dwelleth in the heart
But OIL so few
Hold fast the bliss
These unseen ties impart
They turn away
And cherish not
God 8 kingdom in the heart.
They scatter pearls
Beneath their feet
And lock their hearts of stone
And deem all faith
In God and man
Unhallowed as their own
Mrs. T.. r. Dye, in Interior.

QUEER FISH.
Finny Idiots Who Grow in Size But Never
 Attain Real Maturity.

Finny Idiots Who Grow in Size But Never
 Attain Real Maturity.
 Most of our English flat fish lie con. sistently on one side, and that the left they keep their right eye always upper. most. But the turbot and the brill re. verse this arrangement, having the Jeff side on top and colored, while the right side is below and white. Two other fish, known as the fluke and the me- grim, but not received in polite society, follow the example of their fashionable friends in this respect. But in no case are these habits perfectly ingrained: now and then one meets with a left sided sole, or right-sided turbot, which looks as though great deal were left to the mere taste and fancy of the indi. vidual flat fish. Some have taken to lying most frequently on one side and some on the other; but it is interesting to note that when a normally right sided individual has happened to lie with his left side uppermost that side be- comes colored and distorted, exactly the same as in his more correct brethren. This shows how purely acquired the whole habit must be. It points back clearly to the days when fiat fish were still merely a sort of cod, and sug- gests that their transformation into the unsymmetrical condition is mere- ly a matter of deliberate choice on their own part. Indeed, there seems good reason to believe that many young flat fish never undergo this change at all, but swimming about freely in the open sea assume that pc. culiarly elongated and strange form known as leptocephalic. 1 don't mean to say that all Ieptocephali are original ly the offspring of fiat fishes, but some probably are; and -so word or two about these monstrous oceanic idiots and imbeciles may not be here out of place. Lolling about lazily in the open ocean a number of small, long, ribbon-like fish are frequently found, quite transpa- rent and glassy Tn appearance, with no head at all to speak of, but furnished with pair of big eyes close beside the tiny snout. They are languid, bone less, worm-like creatures, very gelat- inous in substance, and looking much like pelucid eels without the skin on. For long time these leptocephali Gas they are called) were supposed to be a peculiar class of fi-hes, but they are now known to be the young fry of various shore hunting kinds, which have drifted out into the open ocean, and had their development permanently arrested for want of the natural environment. They are, in fact, the fish idiots, and though they grow in size they never attain real maturity. C0TRhiH MGQGzine.
