There is many a rest in the road of life, If we ouly would stop to take it; And-many a tone IVoni the better l.iud, If the querulous he irt would make it ! To the sunuy soul, that is l'uil en hope, And whose beautnul trust ne'er laileth, The grass is jrreeu and the llow.rs bright, Though the wintry ttorm j)revaileth. Better to hope though the clouds hang low, And to keep the eye still lifted; For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through, When the ominous clouds are lilted ! There was never a night without a day, Or an evening without a morning; And the darkest hour, as the proverb goes, la the hour before the dawning. There is many a gem iu the path of life, Which we pass iu our idle pleasure, That is richer far than the feweled crown, Or the miser's hoarded treasure; It may be the love of a little child, Or a mother's prayers to Heaven, Or only a beggar s grateful thanks For a cup of water given. Better to weave in the web of life A bright and golden filling And to do God's will with a readv heart, And hands that are swift and willing, Than t5 suap the delicate minute, threads Of our curious lives asunder; And then blame Heaven fur the tangled ends, And sit and grieve and wonder.

Ephe put down his saw, looked at the young Bter a moment in amazement, and then asked him, with an air of triumph : 'Look here, white boy, how old are you?" "Twelve."'

Chenier, in his book on "Morocco," relates tbig: "J. have been assured that a Brebe who Went to Luut the lion, having proceeded far into a forest, happened to meet with two Irons' whelps that came to caress him. The hunter stopped with the little animals, and, waiting for the com ing of the sire or the dam. cook out his breaklast and gave them a part, The lioness arrived, un- perceived by the huntsman, so that he had not time, or perhaps wanted the courage, to take his gun. After having for some time looked at the man who was feasting her young, the lioness went away, and soon after returned, bearing a sheep, which she laid at the huntsman's feet. Thus become one of the family, he took this oc casion of making a good meal, skinned the sheep, made a fire and roasted a part, giving the en trails to the young. The lion came also, and. as if respecting"thc rights -of hospitality, showed no tokens of ferocity. Their guest, having finished his provisions, returned the next day, and came to the resolution never more to kill those animals, the noble renerosity of which he had so fully proved. He caressed the whelps at taking leave oi them, and the dam and the sire accompanieu him till he was safely out of the forest. Six per cent Interest.
