THE WORK OF EVERY DAY.

Great deeds are trumpeted. loud bells are rung,
And men turn round to see:
The high peaks echo to the peans sung
Ger some great victory.
And yet great deeds are few. The mightiest
men
Find opportunities but now and then.
Shall one sit idle through long days of peace
Waiting for walls to scale?
Or lie in port until some Golden Fleece
Lures him to face the gale?
There's work enough; why idly then delay?
His work counts most who labors every day.
A torrent sweeps down the mountains brow
With foam and fl ash and roar,
Anon its strength is spent; where is 1t now?
Its one short day is DER,
But the clear stream that through the meadow
flows
All the long summer on its mission goes.
Better the steady flow; the torrents dash
Soon leaves its rent track dry.
The light we love is not the lightning flash
From out midnight sky.
But the sweet sunshine, whose unfalling ray
From its calm throne OF blue, lights every day.
The sweetest lives are those to duty wed,
Whose deeds, both great and small,
Are close knit strands of an unbroke en- thread,
Who're love ennobles all,
The world may sound trumpets, ring no
bells:
The Book of Life the shining record tells.
The Critic.

Wives as Companions.

1t has become the fashion to talk of girls,
as at present brought up, as more orna-
mental than useful. Old bachelors occa-
sionslly indulge in TRADES against woman's
ignorance of housekeeping. If these lay
sermons are correct, the only mission of
wife is to bake and sweep and sew. Now,
we do not underrate the importance of such
requirements. A girl has no right to mar
ry poor man if she is entirely ignorant of
household matters, and most young men
in this country are comparatively poor, and
have their fortunes to make for themselves.
But to be ignorant of household affairs is
one thing-to be a drudge, or upper SER
want, is another. We have too often seen
lively, pretty girl, after few years of
marriage, sink into listless, careworn ma
tron. A wife should be something above q
mere menial. She ought to be 'help-
mate" and no wife can be that, in the high
er sense of the term, unless she is COM
panion. Many an otherwise excellent wo-
man, perfect in the ordering of her house.
hold, and capable, when necessary, of
working heartily herself, drives her hus-
band to the company of pothouse compan-
ions because she is no companion for him.
We do not say that DOCTORS wife should
study medicine, or a lawyers wife study
law. or mechanics wife should learn his
trade, in order to become companion to
her husband. This is not what we mean.
But every man, even the most illiterate,
has his peculiar tastes and sympathies; and
it should be the business of a wife to dis
cover them, to interest herself in them, and
to be able to talk appreciatively about
them.
The poorer a couple are, unless in the
case of actual day-laborers, the more they
are thrown together, and the more need
there is of this companionship. With the
very rich, society occupies much of the time
of the wife, if not of the husband, and there
is. perhaps, less absolute need of this COM
panionship. But even with the very rich,
capacity for companionship would add
greatly to the mutual happiness of husband
and wife, and often prevent sad family
tragedies. Wives, neglect not your house
hold duties, but be something more than
mere housekeepers-be intelligent compan-
ions to your husbands.

MANS MORTALITY.

THE following poem is justly considered
poetical gem of the highest order. The origf-
nal was found in an Irish MS in Trinity Col
the poem was written by one of those primi-
tive Christian bards In the reign of King Diar-
mid. about the year 554. and was sung and
cnanted at the last grand assembly of kings,
chleftains, and bards held in the famous Halls
OF Tara. The translation is by Dr. Donovan. A
u, % manuscript copy OF the poem was sent by Prof.
stewart. of Trinity College, to the person who
furnished it for publication in the Buffalo
Commercial Aduertiserl.

Or like the tale that's new begun,
Or like the bird that's here to-day,
Or like the pearled dew in May,
Or like an hour, or like span,
Or like the singing of the swan;
Even such is man, who lives by breath.

To CLEAN GREASE sPoTs.-A gentleman
who has tried it says: To clean spots from
broadcloth or woolen goods, take half an
ounce each of glycerine, alcohol and sui
phuric ether, two ounces ofaqua ammonia,
half an ounce of powdered CASTLE soap, and
add water enough to make one quart of the
mixture. Use with brush or sponge and
rinse with pure water, and it will thorough
