One by one, beyond recall,
Surara :r beauties fade and die :
But the roses bloom again.
And the spring-will gush anew,
In th" pleasant April rain
And the summer sun and dew.

And "osrs in their bloom,

In the garden of the heart.

When grief’s winter shall have fled,
Giving place to rain and dew—
Borne sweet hope that breathes of spring,
Through the weary, weary time,
Budding for its blossoming,

Too Many at Once.—If you want to
distinguish yourself, devote your mind to
the accomplishment of some one purpose,
and don’t fritter away its energies upon
some semi-acquisition of half a dozen.—
•‘A little learning is a dangerous thing,”
in all cases, for it always misleads. ’Knives
thnt contain ninety blades, four cork-screws
and a bootjack’ said somebody once, ‘are
seldom brought into action. • In attempt
ing too much they usually perfect noth
i£t.’ Take a lesson from this fact.—
“Whatever is worth doing at all, is worth
doing well” and whatever it is not worth
■our while to do well, it is only time lost
in endeavoring to do superficially. This
is the true system of study, and if carefully
carried out, will save many a pang of re
morse over many a wasted moment,
-—-Time never sTt* heavily upon us but
when badly employed.
