I WILL BE GOOD TO DAY
. *‘l will b.> pood, dear mother,”
I heard a sweet child say;
“I will be pood—now watch me!—
I will be pood all day.”
She lifted up her bright young c\cs,
With a soft and pleasing smile;
Then a mothei’s kiss was on her lips.
So fiOe and pure from gillie.
And when night came that little one,
In kneeling down to pray,
Said in a soft and whisp’iing lone,
“Have I been pood to-dayV”
O. many, many bitter tear
'Twould save ns, did we say,
hike that dear child, with earnest heads,
•■1 will be good to day.”
Wm n to BfeoiN.—'That you may find
success,’ said Kev. Charles Brooks iu an
address to boys, ‘let me tell you how to
proceed. To-night begin your great plan
of life. You have but one life to live,
mid it is immeasurably iinprotnnt that you
do not make a mistake. To-niglit begin
carefully, fix your eye on the fortieth year
of your age, and then say to yourself, ‘At
the age of forty I will lie a temperate
man. I will be an industrious man, an
economical man, a benevolent man,a well
read man, a religious man, and a useful
man. I will be such n one. 1 resolve
and I will stand to it.’ My young friends
let this be your resolution, be firm ns ad
amant ; let it stand like the oak, which
caunot be wind shaken.

How to Look You.no.—How is it that
some men, thought to be so old, still look
so young, while others, though young,
i 1 lit mi r ~
Klirn UIU I X l.i; M-iy 11 n j ' t'riiLijr uuo
with themselves. Mr. Rant once said, on
being asked the reason:
“I never ride when I can walk; I
never eat but oue dish for dinner; I
never get drunk. My walking keeps my
blood in circulation, my simple diet pre
vents indigestion, and, nCver touching
ardent spirits, my liver fear3 not being
eaten alive.” But he forgot to add ono of
the greatest causes of lasting youth— “ a
kind, unenvious heart.” Envy can dig
as deeply into the human face us time it
self.
A Bigot.—The celebrated Johu Fos
ter thus describes a bigot:
“ He sees religion, not as a sphere, but
a line, and it is a line in which he is
moving. He is like an African bullalo
—sees right forward, hut nothing on the
right or lelt. He would not perceive a
legion of angels or devils at the distance
of ten yards on the one side or the other.’,

A COTTON GIN FEEDER that will s»ve

to which it may be attached, thus dispensing
with feeding by hand, (a very injurious prac

rabfe object. Besides which, the Feeder w

etc., from the cotton, before it enters tn® ? ;
thus improving the quality and “sample
