He 1o..ked at their snowy blossoms.
And marled, with observant eye.
That his flowers were sadly drooping.
For their loaves were parched and dry.

An earthen vesesl was lying,
Which seemed of no me at all.
Bat the Master saw and raised it
From the dust in widish it lay.
And sanded, as be gently whispered.
"This shall do my work today !
'It is but an earthen vessel.
But it lay so close to me ;
It ls small. but it is empty.
And that Is all it needs to be. -
So to the fountain be took it.
And tilled it full to the brim:
How glad was the earthen vessel
To be of some use to him.
He pouted forth the living water
Over his lilies fair.
Until the vessel was empty.
And again he filled it there.
Ile watered the drooping lilies
Until they ret iced again ;
And the Master saw, with pleasure,
That his Iama,r had uut been in vain.
His owu hand had drawn the water

a very large powerful man, be generally
has i. all bis own way with the guests
who are bold enough to pot the gloves
on with him. For some rims it was an
open dispute between Conkling and
Chandler whish was the better boxer of
the two. Chandler would, attar every
dinner party of which he was a member,
dimly assert that he could lick any man
of his weight in the United States. '
One day last winter Chandler dinrd
with Conkling, and the latter inveigled
the gnat war senator int., the private
gymnasium. The gloves were donned
and the two doughty champions began to
make graceful senatorial passes toward
une another, a000rding to the most ap-
proved rules of the P. R. The bout,
however, was of • very short duration
Chandler suddenly received a blow be-
tween the ayes, which caused the huge
senatorial form to go over backward ; his
trusty legs failed him, and then he sat
down so hard that tears came out of his
eyea It took four men to get the war
senator upon his legs, tut he tbrew
up the spoeg.at once, without any
further effort to punish Conkling,,.
The only remark he was heard to
make was, "Damstrenge," and "I'lt 5i
him yet."
Conkling and Chandle:.. ere much iso-
gether in a social way, and it was wut
long after the above occurrence when
when Chan -ter received another iuvitte
Lima to come up to his house and spread
his legs under Conklnag's social board.
Chandler sent back word that he re-
gretted very much .his inability to be
present, but he had at his house as guest
a valued constituent from Michigan, and
could not leave him. Conkling seat
back word, "Bring your friend &cog."
With this form of invitation, Chandler
commented to come up. He brought his
friend with him, and introduced him as
Mr. Howard of Detroit, Mich. Howard
was a sad -eyed man of diffident manner',
who .uctest.d himself with paying very
clow attention to the themes of the bill
of fare, rather than join in the general
conversation at the dinner -table.
.Conkling wee in great glee during the
dinner. He told over and over again

Mr. W. J. Chamberlain, of Colpmbus,
Ohio, has communicated to the Coestry
Gentleman his impressi•nt.t1 a visit to,
Canada. He candidly admits that he
did not find the people of this country so
slow as he was led to except At the ex-
hibitions he found dock, grain, fruit and
vegetables that llt.io could not equal,
much boa surpeas. The city of Toronto
.specially impressed him as a lively busi-
ness centre and an exceedingly well built
place. He thinks the only city in Ohio
that equals Toronto in' the volume of
trade is Cincinnati. In conclusion Mr.
Chamberlain says : It diminishes our
conceit, too, to find the Canadians more
courteous, pains, then„we are on this
side. This appears in inany ways, for
example, in forms of expression. If a
Yard ee does not in lerstand your ques-
tion he says 'What 1' or `Heaow ?' or (at
the W est) Which r or 'Him ?' or (if he
can span time) 'What d'ye say ?' But
the Canadian says, `I beg pardon ? And
the courtesy of the expression lies in the
ellipsis, and its generous assumption et
all blame for not understanding the ques-
tion on its first utterance.

There is nothing in the wide world
that ensures success so completely as
perfect independence.
People who are always waiting for
help may wait a long time, u a general
thing.
A little assistance, s little infiuonee, is
not to be had for asking ; but there is
always something one can do for him-
self. Do it, whatever it is, with a will.
One thing leads to another. If a young
lady, don't sit still, and hope a rich man
will marry you, while your aged father
toils for your daily bread. Learn how
to help yourself, and take care of your-
self as much as possible.
Rather be one who does things for
others, than one who must have things
done for you.
Two hands, two feet, sight and
strength—these ought. to enable you to
dispense with help when you are young
and vigorous. Men who can -defy ad-
verse circumstances, and can earn a liv-
ing in any quarter of the world in wit ch
they are dropped down ; who can roll up
.heir sleeves, and set.to work at alutuat
.nythiug that offers ; and who• can erste
