The foUowinjf is sai.l to

‘The first of nn'nre is inexorable.
There is no appe-.l for relief from the

| the multitude- that throng ttie world
to-t’.ay will disappnvr as the foot

of the Surest event of death until tile
shadow falls across their own

of loved ones who.-e living smiles was

‘‘lVe do not want to go through

Lying in B4‘d.
No piece o! iudolent-e hurts the
health more than the modern custom
of lyi-ig abed too I-mg rntlie morning.
This is the general ( r-ciice it latge
towns. T e inhabitants of cities sel
dom rise bef re eight or nine o’clock:
but tbe morning is undoubted y tbe
best time tor xercise, while the stom
ach is empty and the t..,tly refreshed
with sleep. B-sides, the morning air
braces and strengthens tlia nurvr-s,
and in nt:ie tneasureauswers the pur
pose oi a cold bath.
Let any one, wi,o tms been accus
tomed to be in bed till eight or nine
o’clock, rite by sis or -even, spend a
couple of hours walking, riding or Hoy
active diversion outdoors, and he will
find ids spirits cheerful and brisk
throughoat the day, his body braced
and strengthened. Custom soon re -
ders eany using agreeable and noth
ing contributes .name to the [ reserva
tion of hea‘th. The inac'ive are con
tinually complaining of pai s, etc.
Theseci mpiaiiits, winch pave tbo way
to many others are rut to be removed
i y medicines. They can only tie eur-
ed by a rigorous course of exeicttms
to which indeed they seldom fail to
yield. It agrees with oh-orvatiwn,
that h!i old mon have been early us
ers. This i- the only circumstance in
tending longevity to which wo never
knew an orcepiion.
Busy Workers Ifitdei Krauud.
It is not genemliy known to what
erfent wo are indehtd to worms lor
the productiveness of oiirga dens and
fields. It lias been found, by a series
of oxperimentscarried out by German
naturalist, that the tunnols made by
worms into the earth ate friquently
of much service to plants whose roots
occupy the channels that have thus
been made. Toe mould of ourga
dens, and fields too, Se improved to
an a!most inconceivable extent by tho
borrowiugs of this humble insect
Each worm in leas than a week passes
through its body its own weight in
mould, end the soil thus produced i
fine and light, and extremely helpful
to the growth of plants. When it is
remembered that there are in every
acre xcme 34,000 worm?, and shat in
addition to forming every day about
37 tbs, cf fine mould they Cpen up ,
the subsoil and render it fortilo, we
shall gain icmo slight conception of
out indebtedness to these apparently
insignificant and generally nnthought
oi little workers.

In the early yors after the crea

“ Viia' are the properties of this

fuim-d hi n ho had been mistaken.
‘ S ill,” ventured Adolphus, "I '
hope f do not intrude.”
The ady made no reply, but t'.rned
her attention to the stage, where a
scene was transpiring in which she
was much interested. At length Ad“ -

“You a .noy me, sir,” and her

“ILess me!” erted Adolphus, draw

The lady smiled a sweet, beaming

“Bennt alarmed, sir; I am a Jew

We often bear the rental k, "how

live In the country, whore there are
no opportunities fir fun? Weli, then
—if yon want to know whet genuine
fun is, just pi'oh in and help break a
pair of three year old steers. Filet,
you catch a steer and tie hy the head
to a post in the barnyard. Then you.
Ofttch the other one and put a rope
around his horns. Then your dad
gets the yoke, and between you two
an 1 the hired man holds the critter.-"
Ju-t as you slip the knot, away go
the steers w th a t awl and a bellow—
or rather a pairot Bellows— and there
n.ises before your vision e confused

I mixture of horns, heels, ropes, dad.

reminds yon of the picture of a vol
conic eruption in the old geographies.
And hat’s only the beginning of the fan.
By and by dad gets hold of one rope
and the hired man the other, and rue
rac e down the Une— the steers “neck -
and neck,” and the old man perform
ing the curse on the serpent. Then
there is the time in baying, when
dad undertakes to show you how to
mow ever a bumble-bees’ nest. He
ain't airaid of these bees, uoi needn’t
be—just go right along - they never
t;nir unle-e you fight ’em; and then
‘•wish!” git o' the way! and be de

a dead run, at the business end of a
dozen yell .w-lt gged hmrble-bees. Ob,
no there isn’t any fun on a farm.
Mie Did’nt Scare.
A bov who wa* disappointed the

Bartered something which excited her

he said :
“Your husband ought to be aireit

“Working on Sunday— come here,
hub! Nw, bob, if you’ll prove tfcar

or any other day in the week, I*l

The boy backed ofl without anoth

“Don’t stuff rituals into your mouth
