is that he would never have learned even the alphabet of those languages
 A single earnest purpose running through his life served as cord on
 which all his odd minutes-the only jewels he ever had-was strung, as cement to bind them into coherent, harmonious whole. The ordinary in- terruptions of daily lifo did not in- tcrruDt him. They aided him rath- CT, for inc same mental impression was renewed and rencv"i ua'ii ii became GXrl ani perm inent.
 'fortv nl;nutc; day. said the f1un,i.r of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, twill enable one to go through the four years course of reading prescribed. and give one an outlook on the world Of knowledge similar to that gained by college-course. The mind set in certain direction by ten-minutes' reading will retain that set during immediate hours of work, and be ready to receive an additional i'm pulse in the same direction. These successive impulses, in the course of time, produce astonishing results.
 To rest we need not so much en- tire cessation from work as change of work, and those accomplish great deal who provide themselues with various occupations, and so have something agreeable and useful to fill every passing moment. Those who ''gather up the fragments that nothing be lost" often have more to show than others who have full loaves to draw from.
 Minutes and hours when the hands are at rest and the mind sinks into perfect calm are not to be counted idle. Only the still surface of the lake reflects the depths of Heaven. There are truths we can not see when the current of life is swift, truths whose outlines are blurred and dimmed and obscured in the toll and moil of daily struggle, but which shine out clear and beautiful when we sink into voiceless repose. Odd moments, such as these, come but rarely, yet they brighten many days of labor and answer many weary quest of the aspiring soul.- Ex.

Two Country Boys.

About sixty years ago a Vermont boy, a farmers son, was sent to East Poultney by himself to sell a load of potatoes. It was great event for him-the proudest day of his life. He sold out his load, then drove round to the tavern, put up his horses, and went in to dinner. How grand he felt, ordering dinner on his own account, and paying his own bill
 A good many people were in the dining-room, among the rest s dis tinguished-looking man, no less q parsonage than the sheriff of the county, who had formerly been a member of Congress. But pretty soon our young fellows eyes fell upon a tall, pale, whte-haired gawky boy" sitting at the far end of the table, in his shirt-sleeves, paying at tention to nobody, and eating as if upon wager.
 This is pretty sort of tavern, anyhow, to let such fellow ss that sit at the table with all these gentle men! He ought to come in with tine hostler," thought our potato mer- chant.
 Before long the conversation turn ed upon some political subj feet, some act of an early Congress, and there was difference of opinion as to how certain members had voted upon it. All at once the sheriff turned to the white-haired, halt-dressed boy at the end of the table, and asked:
 "Ain't that right, Greeley?"
 No" said the boy; "you are wrong"
 "Therel' said one of the men, II told you sol "
 And you're wrong, too," con tinued the boy; and he proceeded to give the history of the measure in question from beginning to end.
 Our dealer in potatoes was aston ished out of measure, the more so because the whole company took these statements as law and gospel, settling the whole dispute at once and forever.
 The 'gawky boy" was Horace Greedy, who was there at work in a printing office at East Poultney The other boy became prominent New York physician. The two did not see each other again for many years. Then the famous physician met the famous editor one day in the street, and told him this story to his great amusement.- Golden Cepser.

Odd Minutes.
NJ. MCRAE LACKEY.
Crystal Springs, Miss.

The amount of work that may be accomplished by the improvement of odd minutes is greater than one who has not tested the matter would easi- ly believe. Five minutes day amounts in year to thirty hours, or three hous day for ten days and in that time deal of work can be done. In thirty years 1t would be three hours day for three hundred days. Looking at odd minutes thus, one can easily see how the learned blacksmith, Elihu Burritt, became versed in so many languages. Every moment that he was not busy pound- ing away on his anvil or it's equiva- lent, he was pounding away at his studies, he was pounding away at his studies, and between times was let ting the knowledge he had gained become part and parcel of his mind. Had he waited until he could sit down at leisure and devote himself to the study of Greek and Latin and Hebrew and Sanskrit, the likelihood
