The Sailor as n Valet.

"Talk about your gentleman's gen

who has had ample experience in the
expedients of bachelor living in New
York, "a good capable sailor man,
who has had a few years experience
before the mast, is werth dozen Of

closed sometimes when there is little
more than a Scotch mist to obscure
the great source of heat and light.
Still, it is hardly to be expected
that such retrospections will con-
vince the present generation that the
old way was the better one. The dis
cipline was severe, and no doubt con-
siderable suffering was caused by it,
though the people of that day stole
ally accepted it az matter Of
course. 1t is not good philosophy
from a latter day viewpoint to accept
suffering voluntarily, however good
religion it might have been in a for
mer day. The more comfortable con-
ditions Of the present have justified
themselves in raising very apprecia-
bly, the average of life. Indifference
to hardship is generally coincident
with a lower standard of charity and
humanity. There are no better men
and women now, perhaps, than there
were in the old days, but there is a
more elevated social spirit which is
bcnefting humanity in ways that
would have been thought unnecessary

A BuaIness Asset.

Mr.. Lane was a small man and
far from strong. He admired
strength in others above almost any
thing else, but he showed his admi-
ration as he showed all his feelings
in a cautious way.
He was an expressman. Having
called one day at house for heavy
box of books, he was amazed to see
the young athlete Of the family, who
was then enjoying a vacation from
college, take up the box, after a
plying glance at him, and bear it
out to the cart as if it had been
a bag of feathers.
81 wish I had his strength" said
the little expressman, with enthusi-
asm, to the young fellows mother.
81 would give 50 cents, ma'am, for
such strength as your sons, and
'twould be well worth that to me in
nv business" -Youth's Companion.
