And i ui o'iin^ voice in toe. fitful blast
Seemed ever to echo her m i: g cry.
A3 she begged fur alms of ?bo passers by J
" ll.?vc pity ou lue, Lave, pity I pray, -
My b?plc i- butt abd my head is gray."
Tai bel's Hire lingiii^ thc hour bf prayer,
And many good people Wera ^aihcring there,

At last c:imu oat* of a noble naiao,
15y thc city counted lbj wealthiest darno,
And 'be ; earls that o'er her tieck were strung,
.She proudly ibero to the beggar thing.
Then followed a nnid-n, young ?nd fair,
Adorned with clusters of golden bair;
Bal Uer dress ?ras thin, and scanty, and
wurn,
.W: even the bag;; ir's se-m- 1 more forlorn.
With -i tearful look, a-td pitying sigh,
She whimpered soft, " no jew ls have I,
But I give you my prayers, ?od friend,"
?aid fht>,
"And surely ? know Oed listens to mu."
Oa ber p"or weak band, so shrunken and
. small,
Thc blind woman felt a tear drop full,
Then kissed it, and said to thc weeping giri,
'? It is you thai have giveu the purest pearl."
Kissing,
A kiss fairly electrifies you. It warms
your blood aita sols your heart beating
like a btiss drum, a:id makes tour eyes
twinkle likvi estar? in a frosty night. It
U ?i tiling never to be forgotten. No
lang tage can express it; no letters will

equal to the flavor of it ? What an aroma
it his ! How spiritual it is i It is neither
\i>ib!e nor tangible, not portable nor
transferable, lt is not a substance nor

it, Evt irned it iii Paradise.
How it is adapted tai al! circumstances!
There is the kiss of welcome and of part

one; thc stolen or the mutual one; the
kiss of love, ol joy and of sorrow ; the

Ten Follies.
To think that the more a man eats the
faller and stronger he will become.
To believe that the more hours children
study at school the faster they learn
To conclude that if exercise is goof!
for the health, thc more violent and ex
hausting it is. the mote good is done.
To imagine that every hour taken frort)
sleep is an hour gained.
To act ott the presumption that thc
smallest room in the house is large enough
to sleep in.
To argue that whatever remedy causes
one to feel immediately better is "good
for" the system, without regard to more
ulterior effects.
To commit an act which is felt in itself
to be prejudicial hoping that somehow
or other it may be done in youi ca^e
with impunity.
To advise another to take a remedy
which you have not tried yourself with-,
otu making special inquiry whether all
tiic conditions are alike.
To eat with an appetite, or continue to
eal after it has been satisfied, merely to
gratify thc taste.
To eat a hearty supper tor the pleasure
experienced during the brief Aime it is
passing down the throat, at the expense
of a night of disturbed sleep, and ti wea
ry waking in thc morning.-Progress.
PRIMING. OFFICE RCI.ES.-All persons
in thc habit of visiting newspaper estait
lishments, would do well to pocket this
.-?crap, as it iqight bc useful to ali concern
ed, and it. is expected these rules will be
universally 'observed :
I. Enter softly.
?. Sit down quietly.
.'J. Subscribe for thc naper.
4. Don't touch the poker.
5. Say nothing interesting.
fi. Engage in no controversy.
7. Don't smoke.
8. Keep six feet from the table.
9. Don't talk to the workmen.
10. Hands off the. papers.
II. Eyes off the manuscript.
12. Li t'.he u devil" alone.
Gentlemen observing these rules when
entering a printing oiiiee xviii greatly
oblige the proprietor, and need not fear
the " devil. '5-The ladies, who sometimes
bless us for a few moments with their
presence are not expected to keep these
rules strictly. Boys, accompanied by
their fathers, are particularly requested
to keep their hands in their pockets.
BUSINESS SUCCESS.-It is worth while
to notice the almost wonderful success
achieved by some business men in this city,
who commenced with only ti moderate
capital. The means adopted by our most
prosperous merchants, we learn, on in
quiry, are, first unceasing assiduity to
their business, ?nd watchful Attention to
al! its details, great and small ; second, a
determination not to encourage the de
tire to grow suddenly rich, and, thirdly,
u> inake a reputation and establish a good
and reliable name. A reputation, in a
retail business, is made, in a great degree,
by liberal advertising, m being satisfied
with.a moderate' profit, and by making ti
rule not to misrepresent the articles sold.
