Vet, ouc call stroll, ami see. hear, feel nnd learn, without crossing a river, jumping a | stile, chasing a rabbit, or (Jigging a fossil. ] Ho it is, that when we are tired witli the vexations and contradictious of the busy world's life, we just hike a stroll. Nature !is tilway’s equal; her mind is never tickle , her voice is always full, lender, confiding and true, her spirit is the nreatii of God. To tuke a stroll, therefore, is to enter upon a delightful pleasure, receive the hem-die tlon of a warm, loving mother, mid behold i the wotks of n beneficent God Old men must have tlalfs, and young I men, guides.

Also one loves lo read uii uuoidcily hook, if the facts, and the beautiful secrets are declared nud unfolded. And for this reason Louis is not only readable, but abso lutely loveable. You see heaven iu the countenance of a plant or flower, and feel the electricity of sweet life in contact w ith the most unpretentious sprout that forms the garden hedge. Home people—very wise they arc too, suy, that Louis Figuicr is fickle us a scientist, and that one must not believe all lie says Hut what of Hint - Who an- the judges that so pronounce They are your gray old fossils, who sti il. as we do sometimes, metaphorically, you know' They study nature In a den up stair . in .
