iV : / Plurals which are Singnlar. The farmer likes a noble ox, And drives a yoke ol" oxen, And oftentimes he shoots a fox That goes with other foxen. In spring he lets his hired man Make sugar with a lot of menSweet maple-sugar in a pan And fill a lot of pen. When In the grass he sets his foot. Where snakes may sting his feet, He knows they can't bite through a boot, And wears a pair of beet. On eggs he often sets a goose To raise a flock of geese, And when he learns to tie a noose He makes a lot of ncese. He's sure to have an aching tooth If he neglects his teeth. And he with boards can build a booth As good as other beeth. Whene'er he sees a little mouse He sets a trap for mice; He also likes to paint his house As line as other hlce. And he remembers, when a child He went with other children To help his father clear a wild Among some other wildren. He saw his father kill a wolf, And chase a pack of wolves. And once he sailed across a gulf To see some other gulves. He owns a cherry-colored cat, Which has a lot of kittens, And almost caught a monstrous rat, Which has a lot of rlttens. He will amuse Ms tired wife. Who works like other wives, By playing music on a flfe That sounds like other fives. . The Strayed Lamb. A little lamb one afternoon Had from the fold departed: The tender shepherd missed it soon, And sought It broken-hearted. Not all the flock that shared his love Could from th? search delay him, Nor clouds of midnight darkness move. Nor fear of suffering stay him. By night and day he went his way In sorrow till be found It, And when he saw it fainting lay He clasped bis arms around it. And closely sheltered in hlB breast, From every ill to save it, He took it to bis home of rest, And pitied and forgave It. And thus the Savlonr will receive The little ones who fear Him; Their pains remove, their sins forgive, And draw them gently near Him? Blest while they live; and when they die, When soul and body sever, Conduot them to His home on high, To dwell with Him forever. Art Thou the Man 1 There is an old story of a certain minister who, in arranging his toilet for his parochial calls found a button gone from his shirt-collar, and all at once the good man's patience left him. He fretted and scolded, and said undignified and unkind things, until the tried wife burst into tears and escaped to her room. The hours of the afternoon wore away, during which the parson called upon old brother Jones, who was all bowed down with rheumatism, and found him patient and even cheerful; upon young brother Hall, wasting away with consumption, and found him anxious to go and be with Christ; upon good old grandmother Smith, in her poor miserable hovel of a home, and found her singing one of the good old hymns, as happy as a bird; upon young Mrs. Brown, who had a few weeks before buried her only child, and found her trustful and serene in view of God's love which had come to her through affliction. The minister went home filled with what he had seen, and ? when evening came, and he was seated In an easy chair, his good wife near . him busy with her needles, he could not help ?aying. "What a wonderful thing grace is! How much it will do! mere is nouiiug wjuuu ito pmti. ' Wonderful! Wonderful! It can do all things." Then the little wife said "Yes, it is wonderful, indeed; but * there is one thing the grace of God does not seem to have power to do." ?. ? "Ah, what can that be ?" said the hus^ band. "Why, it does not seem to have power to control a minister's temper ? * when a shirt-button is gone." This was a new version of the doctrine of grace tq the parson, but it was such a version as many another religious man needs to remember. There is many a ? man wh$ can stand up before a multitude and "confess Christ," who can be feV moat meek when ^insulted in some ! public place; whocaQ rub his hands and bless God for the power of religion; but who is too weak to keep his temper at home. The value of art is in the fineness of the work ; the perfec tion of music in the little accuracies. ' So the beauty and power of our religy. ~ ion are seen when we manifest grace $2 in little things. As it takes greater skill to engrave the Lord's prayer on a five-cent piece than upon a broad steel $ . ' plate, so it takes more grace to live a good Christian at home than in public.? Golden Rule. Being Tbue.?She was four and he .

"She wouldn't care if it didn't hart us, and it wouldn't, Who ever heard of an apple hurting anybody? You just take a big bite, and then I will." |y. "No, Freddy, I can't and you can't. Mamma said if they were hard, we , mustn't." "That aint so very hard. Mamma is in a worry. Aunt Mag said it wouldn't hurt us: she said mamma worried about things. If she doesn't know, she can't worry. Let's go behind the curtain and eat it, then if mamma comes up, she won't see us." Lfc "No. Freddy. God can see us behind tne curtain, as well as he can in ^ this room, and thisfapple is as hard as r a rock. Now, Freddy let's be true." "Well, said Freddy, "we will." * What is and What Onght to be. It does not satisfy the mind or heart of a good man to discover that there is fe-vir a general tendency in society towards a better state, It comforts hin? to see this, and he is happy to acknowledge it. But he feels that the tendency if I - right ought to be emphasized and intensified. A pnuosopner or nisiory may De nappy to discover progress; a true philanthropist seeks to increase its power. He speaks and writes, give money, offers prayers and puts bis entire individual influence where it will do most to hasten the triumph of righteous? : ness. 1. Christi&nsshould beware of the tendency to be like the world; especially in its spirit. 2. The Israelites did not mean to :f>- definitely reject God as their king, * they only wanted a visible, human I leader after their own taste9. 3. We should not be too urgent in ; our desires for temporal things, but f ask in submission to the Lord. Many of us eat too much. We envy &' the people who have large appetites, but they are mistaken objects of envy. $ They are the happier individuals whose desires call for plain food and a little Mr. Popinjay: "Woman'scuriosity amuses me." Mrs. Popinjay: "Aha, By the way, what's the stain on youi hand?" Mr. Popinjay: "Paint. 1 was coming by Blobson's fence, and just touched my finger to see if it was Hurt not your conscience with any known sin. He is most powerful who lias him-| self in his power. A sense of necessity is a right qualification for prayer. A true sense of our unworthiness makes every blessing great and precious. A great many men when they start out to reform the world leave themselves for the last job. The most delicate, the most sensible, of all pleasures, consists in promoting the pleasures of others. The man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live morC simply without. The gift of gifts is love, and there is no other in the world that can hide its lack or make good its scantiness. Abounding Christian life will show itself in good works. It cannot simply exist and do nothing?leave no mark, yield no fruit. Wherever souls are being tried and ripened, in whatever commonplace and homely ways, there God is hewing out the pillars for His temple. To maintain an opinion becausc it is thine, and not because it is true, is to1 maintain thyself, not the truth, and so to prefer thyself above the truth. "What is talent to-day," says Grant Allen, "would have been genius yesterday ; what is genius to-day will be but talent as men reckon to-morrow." The reason why God's name is so seldom in people's mouths is not that they reverence him, as they say, too much to talk of him, but because they do not think of him. Much of the beauty of Scripture is lost to us for want of spiritual discernment. Let us remember that our heavenly Father giveth the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him. Reverence is one of the signs of strength; irreverence one of the sure indications of weakness. No man will rise high who jeers at high things. The fine loyalties of life must be reverenced or they will be foresworn in the day of trial. Whoever loves or delights in anything beyond due bounds, let it be ever so good or so lawful, sets up an idol in his heart and worships it, without being a professed idolater; and this is confirmed by Scripture, which says that covetousness is idolatry. With the same height of desire thou hast sinned, with the like depth of sorrow thou must repent; thou that hast sinned to-day, defer not thy repentance till to-morrow: he that hath promised pardon to thy repentance, hath not promised life till thou repent. I 'Tis not in temDles made with bands the Great Creator dwells. But on tbe mountain top He stands, And 16 the lowly dells; Wherever fervent prayer is heard. He stands recording every word: lu dell, on mountains, everywhere, He never tails to answer prayer. I cannot but think that the world would be better and brighter if our teachers would dwell on the Duty of Happiness as well as on the Happiness of Duty; for we ought to be as cheerful as we can, if only because to be happy ourselves, is a moat effectual contribution to the happiness of others. "You can't add different things together," said an Austin school-teacher. "If you add a sheep and a cow together, it dors not make two sheep, or two cows." A little boy, the son of a milkman, held up his hand and said, "That may do with sheep and cows, but if you add a quart of water to a quart of milk, it makes two quarts of milk. I've seen it tried." "Cultivate a spirit of love," says Rowland Hill. "Love is the diamond amongst the jewels of the believer's breastplate. The other graces shine like the precious stones of nature, with their own peculiar lustre and various hues, but the diamond is white. Now, in white all the colors are united ; so in love is centered every other grace and virtue. Love is tne fulfilling ot the law. Terra Cotta Wells.
