NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE.
“ Oh! it's not worth the (rouble to
dress, I see only my husband/’ Then
mpi«laot if your husband is not better
worth pleasing than a host of company,
it is a pity you are married. Not worth
the troublo to surround yourself with
every grace and facination that you are
capable of? Then if you are a neglect
ed wife by and by, never complain, for
it is your own fault, it was not ‘ worth
the trouble,’ say* the nervous mother,
snatching the implimcnts of work from
the hands of her awkward child; * not
worth the trouble to teach her, can do it
better myself.*
Can you then now, if this is yoar
method, will the child ever learu to be
come useful ? It her timid services are
not worth the trouble of teaching, how
can you blame her, if in after years, she
prefers to sit in the parlor and leave the
work to j ou ? The instructors, has not
one tithe of the interest you should have
in the child, thinks it well wotlh the
trouble to impart to her a dozen . differ
ent accomplishments; alasl that the
mother should be more indifferent than
a stranger. f
It is not worth the trouble. How
often the words are uttered 1 and with
what sad consequences followed. The
woman becomes the slovenly house
keeper, the daughter the insignificant
pleasure seeker; friends are estranged
because ‘ it’s not worth the trouble’to
explain 4 (bat little difference and the
influence of the spirit pervading such
decision is felt to the detriment of every
walk in life.
Be careful then how you carelessly
utter the words, * it’s not worth the trou
ble.—'Boston Olive Branch.

Talking and Doing—It is easy to
talk—it is hard to do. We can all of
us talk, but can we all do ?
The is difference, very wide and sig
nificant, between the two. He or she
who talks the most, as the world goes,
does the least. Either is exhausting—
and as contrasting in nature as in posi
tion. The mao who starts off slap dash
and puts bis hands and head square
upon the shoulders and hips of things,
is the doer. It is he who rules the
world, whether its circle be the neigh
borhood of his locality, the city, State or
nation. He who dallies—talks—and
talks and dallies—never does else of
consequence. His hands have no power
of grasp; his brains no pluck and
energy. He is the talker.
We like the doer. He is the man, or
she the woman for us. Talk may have
its place, but it never yet of itself made
a pin, lifted a brick, weaved a fabric, or
germed a useful, solid thought. There
is as much difference between the two,
as between a gingerbread horse at the
baker’s, and a bold pacer at the race
course.
AN INCIDENT OF THE EURO
PEAN WAR.
The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser
gives the following extract from aprivate
letter from an officer in the Crimea to a
citizen of Buffalo:
A curious thing occurred yesterday.
A sapper was brought from the trenches
with his jaw broken, and the doctor told
me there was a piece of it sticking an
inch and a half from bis face. The man
said it was a round shot, which the doc
tor disbelieved, but the poor fellow insis-1 ~
ted, and said: “ Yes, and it took off the Q(J (JUU
head of the man next to me.” This was | Apl 19
conclusive, and the surgeon proceeded to
remove the bone; it came out quite
easy when the doctor said to the man,

Just before the breaking up of Con
gress, as several of the members were
making themselves merry in the lobby,
one of them rallied the other on the very
religiouE strain in which he indulged in
the last speech he bad inflicted upon the
House.
“ I’ll bet you five dollars,” said Ma-
canty, “ you can’t repeat the Lord’s
prayer now if you try.”*
“ Done 1” said Kollock, “ done I” and
assuming a decent gravity for the mo
ment, summoned his memory to aid him
in his novel, but certainly very commen
dable effort, “ Ahem!—a—a—ahem ;
ah, now I hare it,
“Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray tl e Lord my soul to keep,
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take,"
“ There! I told you I could.”
“ Well, I give up, beat," said Maearty,
paying over the money, “ I wouldn’t
have thought you could do it.’’
A pair of them, to be sure, for neither
of them knew it.
A showman, exhibiting a picture, said
4 ‘ Ladies and gentlemen, there is Daniel
•in the den of lions. There are the lions,
and that is Daniel, whom you will
easily distinguish from the lions, by
having a blue cotton umbrella under
his arm.”
Physicians rarely take medicine, law
yers seldom go to law, and ministers
steer clear of other parson,s churches.
Editors, however, read all the papers
they can get hold cf.

RULES FOR SLEEPING
What a blessed thing is sleep. Here
are sound rules for sound and healthy
sleep.
1. The place where you sleep must
be quiet and secure, with as little as
possible to impress the senses, therefore
you see bow improper is the customs of
having a candle burning all night in your
bed-room. i
2. As we pass a great part of our
lives in our bed chamber, it should be
high and roomy and contain pure whole
some air.~' * * 1 ■ *
3. One should eat little, and only cold
food for supper.
4. When abed, one should lie almost
horizontally, with the head only very
little raised.
5. An the cares and burdens of the
day should be laid aside with one’s
clothes. The mind should be quiet, not
excited on going to bed and the habit
of reading Or studying in bed till you fall
asleep, is in nil respects a bad one.
6. Be sure to sleep your six or seven
hours at the right lime. Two boors
sound slce^i before midnight are worth
more than four in the day; therefore re
tire early.
8. Have a good conscience, and nightly
commit yourself, body and soul, to the
care of your Father in heaven.
An Editor’s own Drink.—Accord

following is a receipt for the exclusive

can :
41 Take one pint good whiskey, stir in
well one spoonful of whiskey, then add
another pint of whiskey; beat carefully
with a spoon, .mid keep pouring in
whiskey. Fill a large bowl with water,
and make the servant set it out of your
reach. Take a small tumbler pour in
two spoonsful of wafer; pour out the
water and fill up with whiskey, and add

her that you think are untrue, allusions
that you feel she herself would blush to
hear. When you meet with men who
do not scruple to make use of a woman’s
name in a most reckless manner, shun
them, for they are the very worst mem
bers of the community—men lost t>
every sense of honor, every feeling *f
humanity.
The Sag Nichts.—The oath taken
by the order was exposed through the
South Indiana Journal, by Joel Boyd,
who says he initiated 3000 members
under this Oath in three weeks. The
same Oath is published in the Paducah
Weekly American for the 19th of May,
1855. It is as follows;
“ I, A. B. of my own free will and ac
cord, in presence of these witnessess, do
solemnly promise and swear, that I am
in favor of this association, and that I
will not vote for a Know Nothing if I
know the same, and that I will vote only
for a good democrat.
That I will^izuor the foreign horn
and Romanists, thereby gaining their
votes M well as their well wishes.
1 furthermore promise and swear,
that I will not tell any of the secrets of
this order. I furthermore promise and
swear, that I will tell that the Know
Nothings are villains, and that I will
vote for member of this order, whether I
believe he is faithful or nbt; so help
me God.”
