Awful and Lawful.

A Windsor Locks Comm little girl,
just old enough to enter the infant class
at the Sunday-school, was ambitious to
repeat text of Scripture as the older
ones did at the concert exercises. To
humor her ambition and make reasora-
bly, certain that she would succeed, the
mother selected the brief text: at is
lawful to do good on the Sabbath day."
and taught her until she rehearsed it
several times correctly. When the SUI
preme moment arrived, however, tho
little orator electrified her audience and
mortified her mother with the PROPOSE
tion that 1T is awful to do good on the
Sabbath day."

The u eS OF Language.

Language comes moro easily to some
than to others; but it is desirable ac-
quisition, and therefore it is essential
that the book and the teacher in the
school-house should join in inducing the
student to express himself. Not that
mon and women must be able to talk all
tho while. Undor this fashion of things
tho world would soon bo talked to death.
The essential thing is that tho mind DO
madc capable of ofexamining n subject, of
amplifying theme, until it shall as
sumo some fullness of symmetry and
general beauty.

Secondhand Love.


MAY Russell, after two or three win

went TO visit her cousins in Blankville.
She wa, not twenty-one years old-and
was pretty, sweet-tempered, ylyacious
girl Her friends soon saw that Dr.
Holmes, the physician OF the village,
meant to win May for his wife, and that
MAY was ready to be won. For the
first time III her life she had found a
man who appealed to her highest ma
ture, and III whom she could find her
own better self.
Doctor Holmes VAS an honorable
man Of eat depth and tenderness of

any woman. She is skilled IN the con-
duct of sham love affairs"

replied Mr.. Russell.
Doctor Holmes was grave, quiet
man. The step he was going to take
was for lie: he would not allow him.
self to be ra sh. Yet surely he could
make no mistake in taking this ap-
parently innocent, artless, sweet
natured girl into his heart and home
forever?
At last he resolved to hesitate no
longer, and one evening went TO the
house determined to ask her to be his
wife \ Young girl, one Of Mays com
panions, was in the room with her, and
both were looking amusedlv at large

feel neglected if she had not received

and perhaps of love, from gentlemen
who had offered her special attention.
She never means really 70 marry them.
