Small Grains. Beware of all doctrines and deeds that tend to lead away from a holy and useful life. There is time enough for every thing in the course of the day, if you do but one thing at once. Any one who desires to serve God need not boa day without work and plenty of it to do. Personalties are cheap; they are the poverty of our intellectual re sources, and they rarely end in honor or charity. Solomon took an inventory ot the world, and all the best things in it—he cast up the account and the sum total was vanity. Men who cover themselves with glory on the field of human slaugh ter will find themselves thinly clad in the judgment day. There is no readier way for a man to bring his own worth into question than by endeavoring to detract from Ihe worth of other men. Sins of commission are the usu al punishment for the sins ofomis aion. lie that leaves a duty may well fear that he will be left to commit a crime. Cautiously avoid talking of the domestic affairs either of yourselv es or of other people. ours are nothing to them but tedious gossip; theirs are nothing to you. God is pleased sometimes to make choice of those of his mans gers, who have least of the advant ages of art or nature, that Ilis grace in them may appear the more glorious. If not tuned in time, we must be what we once chose to be. And if we do not desire to be forever what we are to-day, let us see to it that we be to day what we wish to be forever. Sin has the awful power of self propagation. It grows stronger with every indulgence And the awful possibility is this—the final victory incur beans ot sin which become our master and tyrant. M;jrk Twain's Courtship. Mark Twain, if he is in the mood will tell the story of his own court ship in a mannner worthy of the greatest of living humorists, When he fir.t me - he lady who after ward In cam,' his wife, he was net so distinguished as now; his origin was humble, and for some years of his life had been a pilot on the Mississippi Liver, The future Mrs. Clemens was a woman of position and fortune; her father was ajudge and doubtless expiectd family so cial importance in his son-in-law. Clemens, However, became inter ested in his daughter, and after a while proposed, but was rejected. “Well,’'he said to the lady, “I did’nt much believe you'd have me but I thought I’d try.” Afterawhile he tried again with the same result, and then remark ed with hia celebrated drawl, “I think a great deal more of you thau if you’d said yes, but it’s hard to bear,” A third time he mat with bettor fortune, and then came to the most difficult part of his task to address the old gentleman. “Judge, I’he 1 ’he said to the digni fied millionaire, “have you 6een anything going on between Miss Lizzie and me?” “What, what?” exclaimed the judge, rather sharply, apparently not understanding the situation, yet doubtless getting a glimpse of it from the inquiry, “Have you seen anything going en between Miss Lizzie and me?” “No, indeed!” replied the judge. “Well, look sharp and you will,” said Mark. This is the way he got the judge’s daughter. (jet Acquainted, Get away from the crowd a little while everyday, my dear boy or girl. Stand before the glass and see yourself as the world sees you; get acquainted with yourself; ask yourself if you are really the kind of person people think you are; find out if you are honest in your conversations and duties to your triends? Always tell the square perfect truth in business transac tions. See if your life is as good and upright at night as it is in the morning; if you are as good a per son on a fishing excursion as you are when you are at home? Get on intimate terms with yourself, and believe it, every time you come out trom these private interviews you will be stronger, purer and better in every respect A k : .<le*Meu>ory.
