V(Christian Neighbor.) If Sunday afternoon is hot it usually J 9eeras to many the the hottest of the -i weefc ai, icuat. is u i.uat luey must go J to Sunday-school to perform duties of^ ten times very difficult of performance ? J In how many schools is the scene one *,J| ^ of noisy disorder from opening to closing? How rare is the genius for com- M manding, controlling and yet in prac- _ :|| ^ tice It would appear that any "good" M n man, any otherwise gifted man, may |j d be made superintendent. But one who lacks this important and peculiar Q quality is wholly out of place qs a leader.. Sunday after Sunday he ia "'-"'#3 made to feel his insufficiency and con- -J _ sequent inefficiency (unless he is also .gsjs p wanting in sensibility). There is no ! m humiliation in one's recognition of his own limitations, and in his voluntary relinquishment of duties for which he knows him self unfitted; indeed both self-respect and a quick regard for the rights of others would dictate the move. While each , Sunday-school leauiier rnuai give uia uwu uiaas uie impress of bis character, yet the school tE, as a whole is guided or misguided, consee trolled or not Controlled by its chief of:al1 ficer. But here are the children? one's, two's three's, by scores they pass; from tiny toddlers up, white,' ^ black, and all intermediate shades; . many placed only by the company they keep, so fair and beautiful as " easily to be mistaken for pure Caucas- '' Fa And the apparelling! This Is said to be an affair of feminine interest almost altogether. But 'J like many proverbial sayings it contains error if it is not wholly false. It ...f is no small question, "wherewithal 'i shall we be clothed?"?Nor is the manner of clothing unimportant. There is perfect accord between this atntomonf- nnH the hiorh onnnsfil we have received to forbear anxious thought concerning possession. But truly the question of dressing, ad right dressing as opposed to wrong dressing is far beyond mere feminine ? fancy, it is a concern for the human race, present and future, and of physi* ? cal, moral, and spiritual well-being. It is no fad (for a day it is interpretI ed), but one of the things demanding * attention and decision, that is decision by way of a beginning. But during this digression the 'even- , 1 iug shades have fallen fast, and the ! mind turns to that incom parable poetic gem left as a precious gift to the world by our Longfellow, The Day la Done. Each one should make it his own. Instead of this, however, there shall be quoted another bit of word I painting both exquisite, and grand. It is by Joseph Addison, and is found in the Methodist hymn book : The spacious firmament on high, With all tbe blue ethereal sky, ^ And spangled heaven's a shining frame, Their great Original proclaim. Th' unwearied sun, from day to day, Doth his Creator's power display, And publishes to every land The work of an almighty hand. Soon as the evening shades prevail, Tbe moon takes up tbe wondrous tale! And nightly to the listening earth, 7 Repeats the story of her birth; While,all the stars that round her burn And all the plants in their turn. Confirm tbe tidings, as they roll, And spread tbe truth from pole. What though, In solemn silence, all Move round this dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice.nor sound, Amid the radlantorbs be round? In reason's ear they all rejoice, And utters forth a glorious voice, tSjj For ever singing as they shine, "The hand that made ub is divine." X. ? Mourning; Raiment. The custom is outworn ; it is an anachronism In the nineteenth century. ^ It is uu-Christian ; it clouds the spirif ral siguificanc of the resurrection with the ever present expression of temporal loss. It is cruel; it forces holnloaq and innocent DeoDle into ac tion which entails privation and unnecessary suffering. It is uutruthful;' it make* false outward show and 3. changes iq sentiment. It is essentially vulgar, for it presses private affairs upon public notice; it thrusts claims of fashion and frivolity upon a time which rtost greatly moves the heights and depths of being, and it forces its superficial worldliness into the fiercest throes that can ever rend human nature ! Why, then, do we still wear mourning??North American Review. m t m ^ Man is a Battery. The old time superstitious belief that LI-. human beings should sleep with their heads toward the north is now believed I to be based on a scientific nriuciDle. Some French savants have made experiments on the body of a criminal who had suffered death* and these tests go to prove that each human body is in ir itself an electric battery, one electrode being represented by the head and the other by the feet. B Every American president has had , from 3 to 32 towns named for him. j There are 30 cities and towns named 'after Alexander Hamilton, 30 Clinjtons, 24 Websters, 30 Bentons, 12 Calhouns, 7 C'lays, 10 Quincys, 51 Dougi lasses, 20 Blaines. ?
