Hi W.'Lawson, Abbeville.

. Boii it Down.
Whatever you havo to Bay, my friend,
Whether witty, grave or gay,
Condense it as much as over you can,
And say it in tho readiest way.
And whether you write of household af?
fairs,
Or particular things in town,
Just take a word of friendly advice?
. "Boil it down.
When writing an article for the press,
Whether prose or verse, JuBt try
To utter your thoughts in the fewest
words.
And let them be crisp and dry;
And when it is finished, and you suppose
It is done exactly brown,
Just look it over again, and them?
Boil it down.
Science and Religion.?Has any pro so
author ever stated the true case between
science and theology better than tho
English poet Clough, who thus wrote:
"When all is thought and said,
The heart still over-rules the head;
Stilt what we hope we must believe,
And what is given us, receive.
Must still believe, for still we hope,
That in a world of larger scope,
What here is faithfully begun
Will be completed, not undone."
"Augustus, dear," said she, tenderly
Sushing him from her as the moonlight
ooded the bay-window where they woro
standing/ "I think you had better try
some other hair dye; your moustacho
tastes Uke turpentine."
At ft teachers' institute, in Ohio, re-1
cently, a lady teacher was given the word
"hazardous to spell and define, and did
it in ibis stylo: "H-a-z, has?a-r-d, ard?
e double s,eas?hazardess; a female haz?
ard.'
The son of a clergyman was delivering
a college valedictory, when, in pulling
out his handkerchief, he pulled out a
pack of cards. "Hulloal" he exclaimed,
"Pve got on my father's, ?oat!"
A man- is said to be absent-minded
when he thinks he has left his watch at
home, and takes it out of his pocket to
see if he has time to return homo and
get it
No man has reaohed so high a.position
on the New York Tribune staff as Thomas
Weeks, who scaled it (267 feet) to adjust
the vane. Vain men always a-spire to
places they cannot keep.
Mrs. Snidkins says her husband is a
three-hande? man?right hand, left hand
and a little behind hand.
The young woman's lament in sultry
weather " Oh, my crimps !" Vanitas,
vanitatum!
Love without money is something like
patent-leather boots without soles.
As ; ohnrity covers, so modesty pre?
vents, a multitude of sins.
BjAt ft recent spelling match one man
spelt it "pasnip," and got beet.
Be slow to choose a friend, and slower
to change him.
