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.
