A FABLE FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.

A little girl and boy were once sit
ting on a f1owery bank, and talking
proudly about their dress.
See" said the boy, what a beau
tiful new hat l have got. What a
fine new jacket and trousers, and
what A nice pair of shoes; it's not
everybody that's dressed so finely as
| am"
Indeed" said the girl, Il think l
am dressed finer than you, for have
on a silk cape and a handsome feather
in my bonnet l know that my dress
cost a great deal OF money"
Not so much as NINE" said the
boy. 81 am sure"
Hold your peace" said a cater
pillar crawling on the hedge; you
proud of your clothes, tor they are
only secondhand, and have all been
worn by some creature or other, OF
which you think meanly, before they
came into your possession. Why,
that silk first wrapped up such a
worm as | am"
There, miss, what do you say to
that ?" said the boy.
And that feather" exclaimed a
bird, perched upon a tree, was
stolen from or cast off by some of
my race"
What do YOU say to that, miss -
repeated the bow We'll. my clothes
were neither worn by birds nor
worms"
True" said sheep, that was
grazing close by, "but they were
worn on the back of some OF my fam
ily before they were yours; and as for
YOUR hat, l know that the beavers
supplied the materials for making
that article, and, my friend. the
calves and oxen were killed, not only
to furnish meat for your table, but
also leather to make your shoes
with
See the folly of being proud of
your clothes, since we are indebted
to the meanest creatures for them !;
and now consider how thankful we
ought to be to God, who has given
us wisdom rightly to use the materi-
ais which these creatures supply.

HOW TO CATCH LIGHTNING.

M. Oovaroff, a Moscow scientist,
has discovered that when lightning
strikes in forest the white poplar
(populus alba is the first to attract
it. He came to the conclusion that
the tree can be used as natural
lightning rod and he submitted
memorial to the minister of the inte-

white poplar before every house in

the peasants to prevent fire by

1.-THE RUINS"

In the city of New York, near the
site of Barnum's old museum, there
once stood a rumshop, bearing over
its door the significant sign The
Ruins" No better name could have
been selected for a place where alco-
holic poisons were sold. We wish
that such a frightfully honest in
scription was written over every
doorway to the house of death in
our land; and that every decanter
behind the bar was as truthfully
labelled. One having printed in let
tiers easy to be read, This bites like
serpent" another, This stings like
an adder" while every barrel of beer
and whisky should be as significant
" inscribed with the words, "Delir
ium tremens,' palsy" fevers,"
Sudden DEATH" and "damna ton"
Perhaps some young beginners
might be frightened away from such
a trap-door of destruction, if the
truth were a s honestly told a s it was
on the sign of that rumshop in New
York.
A friend sitting by our side, who
suggested this article, tells us it was
that sign, The Ruins that led to
his forsaking the cup and becoming
a temperance reformer. AS he stood
by that door thinking, he saw what
RUINS it turned out. He saw reeling
out a bloated, red-eyed creature. the
very picture OF ruin, his clothes in
ruins, his health in ruins, and with a
ruined pocket, he staggered off to
ruined home His hopes for eternity
ruined also by that sin that shuts its
victims out of heaven.
The business of the rumseller is to
make ruins out of Gods immortal
creatures, hence the sign fifty de-
scribes his trade. A young man from
the country came to Boston a few
months ago to take situation in a
store Some convivial friends in
duced him to take social glass with
them. He drank, became tipsy, and
then started for his lodgings. On his
way there he bought a pint of
brandy He drank it and was taken
with commissions, and died before
davbreak.
The ruins" of the unhappy youth
were taken home to his heart-broken
friends And this is the Internal work
of the rum-traffic. The traders bus
mess is to sell death by measure
And the government protects him in
it But Gods law blazes against
him its prohibition, Woe unto him
that putteth the bottle to his neigh
Dor" The civil law ought to re-
enact Gods law and prohibit every
man from a traffic whose inevitable
effect is to produce ruins and wretch
edness and death. Let us demand
such a law and call on every con-
scientiOus citizen to aid in its enforce
ment-[ Boston Traveller.

Better than Fiehfiue

The Chilean minister, Senior Malta,
has given official notice that Chill in
tends to participate in the Worlds
fair at Chicago. How very much
better for both nations that will be
than testing guns and armor-plates

The other Side.
The right of suffrage is neither
much sought nor cherished by
women. Women do not vote be-
cause there is no necessity for voting.
Their legal rights are protected,
their interests promoted, their in
fuence acknowledged and their
wishes complied with, by the ballot
in the hands Of father, husband
brother or son, as the case may be.
If it were not so the demand for
female suffrage would have a sound
basis and the demand for it would be
indeed resistless. AS it is, women are
not concerned about the extension
to them of the franchise, which has
been seen, in every case, to entail new
responsibilities of serious and irk-
some sort while proposing to confer
only the most unsubstantial and
evanescent of political benefits
