“MiumI tint from the UsitKcr.”
Wo were fn«t approaching Capo Hat-
tcras. Already its dim outlino was ap
pearing to the southwest, and we were
anticipating a clone run toils rocky shores,
when huddeuly tha order to taok W/.h
given, and we stood out into the Atlantic,
leaving tho Capo far astern.
“Is not the water deep enough to take
a closer run to the shore?" a*ked Adju
tant Culver, who was impatient to get a
good sight of the laud alter a three days’
voyage.
“Certainly,” answered the Captain,
gazing off to tho south at the signs of an
approaching storm.
’‘But why, then, did wo tack out bore?"
asked tho Adjutant.
“Because," replied the Captain, “if iu
ruuuiug close to tho Cape wo bud become
iu any way disabled, we might have
drifted on tho rocks end bavo been
wrecked. A good suitor, when possible,
stands out from tho dauger."
When I seo a young man leaving the
pure influences of the home circle, and
spending his hours in places where drink
and gambling bavo their programme,
although ho may take part only as a spec
tator, yot I treiublo for his safety, and
long to warn him to stand out from the
danger.
When I seo tho moderate drinker in
dulging iu his occasional glass, and look
ing dowu with a contemptuous smile on
tho fttuulicul temperance people, I know
that ho is sailing close along tho rocks of
intemporuuce, nud his only safe course is
to stand out from the danger.
When 1 see fair hands proffer tho spark
ling wine to the noble and gifted, I think
hat a terrible wreck tboirs would be if
tho rocks wore encountered, and I pray
that tho scales may fall from the eyes of
tho tempted so that they muy staud out
from tho dangr r.
When I hoc the reformed inebriate fre
quenting the bar room and mingling with
old boon companions, I almost hear the
hidden rocks that bo was rescued from,
grating ngainst his frail bark, And \ speak
to him us n brother Hhould to a brother,
“tack your ship or you »r« lost! Stand
out from the danger!"•—& J). Richard-

Mai/.kah a Window-Plant.—An Eng
lish periodical, The Harden, recommends
maize—our oonnuou ludi.-tu corn—us a
window or balcony plant, saying thut it
has many qualities w hich deserve to mnke
it popular. It declares that a* u central
plant for a hanging-basket or rustic-stand
maize is equal to a draciuns iu graco and
beauty of outline, besides being much
more hardy. It speaks of a variegated
variety whose leaves are profusely striped
with creamy whito, and urges its' trial as
an effective addition to the centres of
vases in which bedding geraniums, nas
turtiums, nud lobalius are planted duriug
the summer months. No doubt its com
parative rarity in Eugland gives it n value
as a bouse-plaut which it will never attain
here, although its luxuriant growth iu
smoky and densely populated oitioR, and
its capacity to add variety of outline to
the most formal arrangement, would seem
to urge its claims upon tho window-gar
deners in this country.
A SiMi’i.p. Plan of Ventilation.—The
following simple method for vcutilatiug
ordinary t*iec| ing and dwelling rooms is
recommended by Mr, limton iu his “Phis-
iology for Practical Uao:" A piece of
wood, three iuches high and exactly ss
long os the breadth of ihe window, is to
be prepared. Lot the sash be now raised,
tho rlip of wood placed on the sill, and
the Siisli drawn closely upon it. If the
slip has been well-fitted, there will be
draft in consequence of this displacement
of the sash at its lower part: but tho top
of tho lower a^sh will overlap tho bottom
of the upper one, and between the two
bars perpendicular currents of uir, not
felt as draft, will outer and leave the
room.
NVhat we Eat and How to Eat.—It
behoovea us to l»e more careful of how \>e
eat than of what wo eat in umo cases out
often, for there are really very few of
the good things of this world that are of
themselves absolutely unwholesome.
Cheese, to wit, is often said to disag
with poople. Why? Simply because it
ia eaten at the end of a good dinner, and
when an extra mouthful of anything
would be sufficient to turn the balsuce
between comfort and discomfort. Pastry
equa'lv disagree*, generally rnoro'y for
the swine re son. Let both it ai d cheese
and other dainties be used honestly us
part of a meal, and not as mere “vain*
ticklers'' of jaded appetites, and they are
aa wholesome as beef and mutton, except
in speoifio oases.
Cubiko a Felon.—The London Lancet
suggests the following simple treatment:
As toon at the disease is felt, pnt directly
over the spot a fly-blister, about the size
of your thumb-nail, and let it remain for
aix hours, at the expiration of which time,
direotly under the eurfaee of the hUeter
A ftei%noiMble Religion.
How many people do you kuow who
regulurly pack up ihoir religion in oaiu-
ph.r for the warm months? Strange,
how easily they slip ont of the old habit,
and don the new. Wonderful what a dif
ference it makes in their personal appear
ance ; how much more stylish and elegant
they look in their summer HuitH. Y
would hardly know them for tho snme
people. Everything fits so much more
loi sely. They hud n habit in tho winter
of going to church regularly. But away
in tho country for tho hot weather, it is
such a bore, nud nobody goes, nud there
is no preaching that they care to hear,
ami it wouldn't do them much good at
any rate ; and so,—well, that habit is cer
tainly much too heavy and close for the
summer.
Frnylnir That In Not Praying.
There is a good deni of this praying
which is not praying at, all. Men piously
ahIc tho Lord to undertake works by tbe
score which they are too lazy or too po-
nurioUH to do for themselves. Prayer
bscotncH a clonk for laziness, and piety a
mawk for avarice. In this point of view,
missionary meetings are often the saddest
places a thoughtful man can sit in, for an
hour's meditation, lie finds himself often
wondering in them, not that the heathen
are not converted, imt that there are any
Christians left. Men moot, and pray, and
exhort, and turn the whole business ov
into tho Lord's bands with an air of pious
resignation, contributing a dollar or two
as they leave it, as their share towards the
enterprise.—CVi arch Journal.
Nllrk To It, Younif Man.
Therefore, if any young tnun has em
barked bis life in the pursuit of knowl
edge, let him go on without doubting or
fearing tho event; let him not bo intimi
dated by tho cheerless beginnings of
knowledge, l»y tho darkness from which
sho springs, by the difficulties which
hover around her, by !h« wretched habi
tation iu which she dwells, by tho want
and sorrow which sometimes journey in
her train. But let him ever follow her as
an angel that guards him, and ns tho
gnnius of his life. She will bring him out
at last iuto the light of day, and exhibit
him to the world, comprehensive in ac
quirement, fertile iu resources, rich in im
agination, strong in reasoning, prudent
and powerful above his fellows in nil the
rotations and in all the offices of life.—

Hints on Habits.—As tho snow gathers
to^ethor, s i are our habits formed. No
agio llakothnt is uddod to tho pile pro
duces a sensible change ; uo single action
creates, however it may exhibit u man’s
character ; but as tho tempest hulls the
avalanche down luonntuius, and over
whelms the inhabitant nnd his habitation,
passion, acting upon the elements of
schief, which pernicious habits have
brought together by imperceptible ac
cumulation, may overthrow the edifice of
truth and virtue.
Come.”—There is not a shorter, more
precious, more hopeful, more inviting
ord in all the Bible than this small word
coiuo." It is iiulocd the key-note of the
Gospel. To tho weary and heavy-laden,
“Come, nnd find rest ;" to the thirsty nnd
fainting, “Coiue, come and driuk
“Como aud take tho w.itor of life freely
only come. Wi n over so much depending
oua condition so simple ?
Thrum is acarce any lot so low but there
is something iu it to satisfy tho man whom
it has befallen ; Providence having so or
dered things that iu every man's cup, bow
hitter soever, there are some cordial drops
—some good circumstances, which, if
wisely extracted, are sufficient for the
purpose he wants them—lhat is, to make
him contented and, if not happy, at loant
resigned. —Sterne.
The Bible from first to last insists upon
personal righteousness. Common life, or
society, teaches us also that a salvation
that did not resist upon virtue would be
the destruction of society iu all its inter
ests. If heaven could be sustained and
peopled by faith without good works,
eanh at least could not.
