Unless I learn to ask no help From any other soul but mine, To seek no strength in waving reeds Nor shade beneath a straggling pine; Unless I learn to look at grief Unshrinking from her tear blind eyes, And take from Pleasure fearlessly Whatever gifts will make me wise Unless I learn these things on earth, Why was I ever given birth? • —Sarah Teasdale. Many a man is rich without money. Thousands of men with nothing in their pockets and thousands without even a pocket, are rich. A man born with a good sound constitu tion, a good stomach, a good heart and limbs, a pretty good head peace, is rich. Good bones are better than gold ; tough muscles, than silver and nerves that flash tire and carry en ergy to every function, and it is better than a landed estate to have the right kind of a father and mother. The man is rich who has a good disposition, who is naturally kind, pa tient, cheerful, forgiving, hopeful, and who has a flavor of fun in his composition. The hardest thing to get along with in this life is man’s own self. A cross, selfish lellow, a de spondent and complaining fellow, a time and care burdened man, these are all born deformed on the inside. They do not limp, but their thoughts sometimes do. Would it not be a good plan for the girls in country neigh borhoods to for classes and get a competent, experienced dressmaker to ceach them the principles of dressmaking. It is a satisfaction to wear well fitting, stylish dresses, though they need not be, and if home made, need not be, expensive ones. A perfect fitting waist pattern once secured —and this the teacher should be able to give them—endless variety may he made by different materials and modes of trimming. When their course of instiuction was finished, the class might sub scribe for two or three of the best fashion monthlies and then keep up with the best new modes. They could and should be able to help one another in the parts of fitting that one' cannot well do for herself, and be gaining at the same time an art useful to them all their lives. RELIGION AT HOME. Religion, if in heavenly truths attired, Needs only to be seen to be admired, —Cowper. Our greatest writers all agree that religion affords home security and happiness, removes family friction and causes all complicated wheels or the home machinery to move on smoothly. When dark and sad days begin to shadow the home, what can cheer and biighten the sinking heart like turning to one who can make tne tears of sorrow’ to be the seed pearls of the brightest crown? What does a home be come with religion as its life and rule? Human nature is checked and moulded by the amiable spirit and lovely char acter of Jesus. The heart is softened, sentiments refined, passions subdued, hopes elevated, purposes ennobled, the world cast into the shade and heaven realized at the fust prize. The great want of our intellectual and moral nature is here impregnated with the spirit and elements of prepara tion for eternity. Like mrnna it will feed our souls, quench our thirst, sweeten the cup of life and shed a halo of glory and of gladness around the fireside. Let yours, therefore, be the religious home and God will delight to dwell therein and his blessings will descend, like the dews of heaven, upon it. Yours will be the home of love and harmony, of family hopes and hrppiness. It is only the intelligent who can be convinced that they need more intelligence. Sometimes we don’t care how many slips there are be tween the cup and the iip—depends on what is in the cup: The man who prints a kiss on a pretty gill’s lips seldom fails to call for a second edition.
