How TO Climb Mountains.

The secret of the climbing Of the
hunters is that they trust their feet as
much as their hands. To plant their
nailed shoe is all they ask in any place.
They go steadily but slowly, aad rest
often, so as to avoid climbing when ex-
hausted OF breathless. A tired or winded
man will tumble, slip. and be in danger
where he would pass easily when fresh,
The apprentice in this particular hunt
found the greatest difficulty in crossing
q chaos. A chaos is a steep slope cov.
cred with blocks of stone ranging from
3 hundred pounds to many tons. Their
are ugly holes, big and little between
them. Their edges are generally sharp
to the rapid passer, as he looks down at
his feet, they appear, without exception,
very sharp. In addition, some Of them
are awobblers. The duffer passed
several unpleasant quarters of an hour
in following the hunter, excited by the
proximity Of game, over these places,
and will always carry on his leg .

high in some Chilian city. He leaves
his card at your hotel with the intorma-
tioa that he will celebrate greatly &C.
quaintance with you," and when you
return the call will assure you that his
house and all it contains is entirely at
your service--a meaningless phrase, ex-
cept that henceforth you have the entree
of the casa, and his wife will receive you
cordially. The parlor is always lighted
at evening, and you are at liberty to
drop in without knocking at nine or ten
o'clock, every evening in the week if you
like, to take tes and remain till mid
night, the usual amussments being
music, conversation and tea. The mas,

for he is spending his evenings some
where else in the same way-or maybe
playing cards at his club. Sunday is the
day for complimentary visiting, calls
being made at two or three in the after
noon, and also at twilight. Ladies are
rarely attended home from evening visits
by anybody but a servant, "beaux," as
we at the north understand the term,
not being permitted.

WISE
The idea is the fact.

The idea is the fact.
Poetry is the breath and spirit of all
knowledge.
Nearly everything that a man likes to
do is bad for him.
Modesty always charms, but it does
not always capture.
Prudence in a woman should be an in
stinct, not a virtue.
High and excellent seriousness is one
Of the grand virtues Of poetry.
The love Of glory can only create a
hero. the contempt Of it creates q great
man.
Theologians resemble dogs that gaaw
large bones for the sake of very little
meat.
If every man would try to reform him
self less effort would be required in re-
forming Others.
a rich man dispises those who fabter
him too much, and hates those who do
not fattar him at all.
Life, to q young man, is like a new
acquaintance, of whom he grows dis
gusbed as he advances in years.
II you wish to appear agreeable 10 So
ciety you must consent to- be taught
many things which you know already.
There is no better preventive Of nerv-
Gus exhaustion than regular, uaharrie I
muscular exercise. II We could moder.
ate our hurry, lessen our worry and in.
crease our outdoor exercise, a large pro-
portion of nervous diseases would be
abolished.
The battle IF life has to be foaght,aaI
ID unavoidable; but the weapons it has
to be fought with, the spirit which is to
guide the combatant, the object to bs
fought for, and the kind of victory to 81
won, these are ell to a large extent with.
in the discretion of every individul il sol
der.
The body fashions itself more or less
after the intents oil the mind. Just asa
mans character gradually sta nps issslf

itual conduct impress itself upon osst
organ and tissue Of his body. II order

A remarkable case of the attachment
OF an animal for its master is reported in
the case of an old horse which DIR. Wal.

nearly twenty years before his death. On
the later event the horse gave various
signs of recognizing the loss of his mas
ter, becoming unmanageable, and, when
he was confined, died, apparently from
grief.
Certain localities in the South were
called Hundreds" as, for instance,
Bermuda Hundreds, on the James River
