years old, was in perfect health nail a
year ago whea sbe began to complain of
fatigue, headaelte, debility, dizziness,
indigestion, and loss of appetite. I oon-
eluded that all her complaints originated
in impure blood, and indeced her to take
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This medicine soon
irestored her blood -malting organs to

Sarsaparilla a most valuable remedy for
the lassitude and debility incident to

at a dollar a hundred, and they have sighed
out their sweet life on your person or at
your side. But this does not alter the case.
if that- is all you have known of them you
have never yet known violeta. An essential
part of their modest life is an appeal to
sentiment and sensibility, spoken only where
they eetle low among their green leaves,

a mass of their blue modesties tied. up in a

away like theirs. Thai was April. Early
in June the last of the violets she brought
me had breathed out their breath to the bite
heaven above them and early in Jane her
sweet life went out theirs.
And now, if interest enough has been
• awakened itt her quiet history to suggest the
question of how, she came to die so young, I
can only answer that it was not young for a
nature like hers. She was of very close kin
with the violets, and they are flowers of
spring -tune. They do not bear the summer
heat, yet they are perfectan their way. In
their brief stay we have no sense of incom-
pleteness. And this is quite true of my
little friend. She matured very fast. There
is no other reason for her early exit. She
had no bodily ailment, but the soul was
very large—too large to live in space so cir-
cumscribed. So she went away. • The sea-
son of her life was fully rounded. We lost
the sight of her as naturally as that of all
spring flowers; she was at rest with them
'ill another season.
She had been onopf my children in the
faith; mine had been thehonor to welcome
he; in thfaMaster's name, to a place in His
household and at His table. 'This was a
little more than a year before the end came.
This year was passsd in a kind of happy
ecstacy. Her face giew almost transparent, I
nnd oame to be like some vision of the holy
ones. The zeal of her Father's: house seem-
ed literally to be consuming her, and yet
these were the only things in which her eager
soul found rest. We chided with her as
friendsatelling her that the strain of *:hc se
things on her weak body was too mucb.
Bet we might as well have chided with he.r
wept spirit when it broke all bars at last
and leaped up to the higher service above.
Again and again would she run to me, in-
quiring "Mr. 'latching, do you know of
any poor or sick person to whom I can take
something, or is there anything you think
of that I can do ?" In my pastoral rounds
I learned in many a place how she had been
before me ministering to chest& wed needy.
To be allowed to do a kindness seemed to
fill her with as much gratitude an if she her-
self had been the recapient. In the worship
of God's house her face was like a eeraph's,
and her conversation was never so animated
as when His worship and His service were
the themes. It was in such living that the
ardent soul burned ant the body till the
grosser material seemer etherealized. So
she stood by my side on that April morn -
in, watched me while I set her violets in
my border, and made this errand earnest the
last that her willing feet ever ran on
earth.
You will see, then, what the breath of the
violets brings to me,. I can almost feel with
each spring's return that her sweet spirit
comes down to nurture the flowers she
planted. The breath ot their fragence on
the spring air is like the srft touch of her
presence, and she lives again to lie in what
she has done, and in what she is still doing,
through her violets. They seem to say to
me: "Why should not you be planting
some little gift of love upon this earth, so
barren to many hearts ?" And their sweet
fragrance goes out to all the world saying:
"T/1i8 IS the mcease of aervice—the service
of:one of earth's frailest little ones." And
Why should you not eadh bestow her some
kindly deed which may blossom and make
life sweeter for those behind when you, are
gone? It wants Only the heart to gee in
other's lives the garden spot that ig bare. It

" A heart at feistire from itself •

There lay the secret of my little friend's
ripely blessed life. She was a little laborer
under the gentle Husbandman, who finds
His field in the hearts of mon. She proved,
though all uncontithougly, that "he *which
ia greatest among you ahall be as him that
servee." The violets are bearing their testi-
mony. Their perfume is going out into
wider and wider circles, teaching how tas.

The German Crown Prince.
So much has been said that is unfavorable
about the German Crown, Prince, the Em-
peror that is: to be, that itis only fair to give

!loved. It ie never to be forgotten that
grossly wenton and unfounded stories: were
circulated about the preeent Emperor and
bis wife during their early married life, how
that be used to come honie drunk and was
in the habit of striking her and so forth.
Now all that has long since been dismissed
as pure nialicione falsehood, and shay it not
be that a good deal said about "Prince
William" 18 08 slanderously untrue as what
was said about "Our Fritz ?" It is just as
well, at any rate, to think BO till the opposite
has been demonstrated. This is the way "A
Former Tutor" writes about him in Murray's
Magazine :—
It was between thirteen and fourteen years
ago that I last saw Prince William—ea 1
roust still oall him—but if it be true that
the child is father to the man, I cannot but
think that the estimate of him whioh com-
monly prOTailu in England is miEstaken.
That Prince William when I knew him was
a frank, wellenannered, genial boy, 1 am
quite sure. That he has developed now -a.
days into an imperioua martinet, 1 for one
find it impoasible to believe. Indeed, I
heard only the other day from a German
lady, whose friends had received them in
their house on the occasion of some recent
military manoeuvres, that host and hostess
had been charmed by his courtesy and kind-
ly consideration. Much has been, said
and written about Prince William's crippled
arm that is far from accurate. I had been
in the habit of sitting clooe beside him
every day for week: before 1 ever wigged
I that hi: arm Was fit an way different
from that of other people. Even then,
I only obserifed ib becattse my Eaten
-
Hon was called to it by others. Thew I
perceived that the left arm was always in
almost exactly the same attitude, and that
the Prince could only move it very slightly,
bending it a little up Or a little down from
it normal position across the body, as
though it were fixed in an invisible ling;s
and. that if he wished to use it to steady the
sheet of paper on which he was writing,
he was obliged to raise it on to the table
with the othtr hand. No doubt this lack
of power ie a great loss and inconvenience,
especially to so ardent a soldier as Prince
William, for it compebi him, I understand
to rade only horses that have been specially
trained for his use, but it is fortunately no
disfigurement whatever. A more profiles-
ing pupil than Prince William, or more -
gentlemanly, hank, and natural boys than
both Prince William and his younger
brother, I can honestly say it has never
been my lot to meet with.
The general talk in most circles is , about
money and how to secure as much of itaa
possible. Those who are readiest to speak
with contempt of "filthy him' have gener-
ally a pretty keen eye for the main chance
and a pretty distinct relish for any windfall
that may come in their direction. Lovers of
humanity at large generally love humanity
best when embodied in their individual per-
sona, and believers in Henry George ant l his
theories are the last to surrender the "un-
earned increment" when they make a strike
in ren estate or on corners lots. There is -no
use or sense ill affecting to despiseImoney.
Nobody really does. Still there is a differ-
ance. It is intolerable when a man claims
attention and honor as he often does simply
because lie has money. If he has money plus
worth, he is all the better because he is not
a beggar. But money without worth I Oh
heavens! and what oracles some of these
are? TRUTH does not wish to be guilty of
idolatry at all but m any case to worship
O mere "golden calf" is the last degree
of both stupidity and baseness. Yet in how
many cases does a man's intelligence seem to
grow as his balance at the banker's increases.
There are people by the dozens who are fuss-
ed about as o aoles who would not be touch-
ed with, a ten foot pole were it not for their
money. Put out at their drawing -room win-
dows the red flag of a sheriffs sale and their
dearest friends would not know them. And
yet even they must have had some faculty.
Here is how one not altogether foolish defines
the classes that generally aehieve riches and
those who as a rule remain poor :--
The persons who become rich are, gener-
ally speaking, industrious, resolute, proud,
covetous, prompt, methodical, sensible, un-
imaginative, unsensitive and ignorant. The
persons who remain poor are the entirely
foolish, the entirely wise, the idle, the reck-
less, the humble, the thoughtful, the dull;
the imaginative, the sensitive, the well-in-
formed, the improvident, the irregularly and
impulsively wicked, the clumsy knave, the
open thief, and the entirely merciful, just
and godly person.
Take a Best Occasionally.
What is to be done to lessen the nervous
exhaustion which is prevalent among all
classes? Hurry and worry are everywhere,
wales the result an ever-growing army of
weary, restless, nervous unhappy, beings who
are a torment th themselves and all who are
near them. What is to be done? The propoti-
ed remedies are all but mama. There is

Good Things Said Of Weiner.
If the Bible (observes Mary E, Spencer,
an American lady) had mad man was made
out of a woman's rib, I would believe it; for
of all things in this world a man is most
helpless alone. A chicken two hours out of
the:shell can take better care of itself than a
man can. So it is all right that a man by
2,0 or 25 should be looking around for a w�,.
man to take care of him; and a womui is
never permitted to look around for a man.
The women do not need to go courting. I
am sure there is some mistake in the trans-
lation. 11 should read that man was made
of a rib of a woman.

I come upon the praise of weinae; and it is

—the salt of his life." That is a little mixed
as a figure, I allow, but Mr. Miohelet meant
well, and when one is in love he cannot help
getting a little flurried. At least it is SO
With Women, John Mama said, " All that
I am my mother made me." Lord Lans-
downe said, "11 thd whole world vs ere put
into one scale and my mother into the
other, the world would kick the beam." I
like that because of all things I am sure the
very best is a noble mother. The Arabs
say," One may get a hundred wives, but
he can never get but one mother; therefore
O mother is equal to a hundred wives." But
Leopard Sohefer has ib better yet when he
says, But one thing on earth Is better than
the wile: that is the mother." '
However, the wife gets enough praise,
and need not be jealous. N. P. Willis said
as sweetly as he said all things, "The
eWeeteet thing 1u lie le the unclouded web
aome of a who.- Riehter, that is, the divine
Jean Paul, said, "No man Call either live
piously or die righteous without a wifa."
Emerson said, "A beautihil WOrnan is a
practical poet, taming her savage mate,
planting tendernees, hope, and eloquence in
all she approaohes." I have, however, never
heard thatArs. Emerson had much taming to
do—only she must see that her mate had
hie hat on when he went abroad.
Among the very pretty thiogs said of wo-
men, Whittier has given us this: " If woman
lost ns Eden, such as she alone restore:3 it."
Voltaire said. "it is woman who teaohes
ns repose. civility, and dignity." Reskin
says a great many fine things of woinan.

heroines." This is always true in a ruder,
earlier stage of society. Woman always be-
gins civilisation. The honor of woman has
always been the corner -stone in building
socially. A race lacking respect for women
has never advancedpolitically and socially,
but has speedilly decayed. Leasing said,
"Nature meant to make woman its master-
piece. " Confucius 2200 years ago said.
"Woman is the world's masterpiece." But
adalherbe spoke the mind of all Frenchmen
when he said, "There are only two beau-
tiful things in the world—women and roses :
and only two sweet things—women and me
-
Ions." This was gallant but natural ; and
it gave woman her true place as a blossom
and fruit of nature.
Concerning woman and men as equals, 1
Raskin says—" We are foolish and without i
excuse in claiming the superiority of our sex
to the other. In truth, each has what the
other has not. One completes the other,and
they are in nothing alike. The happiness
of both depends on each asking and receiving ,
from the other what the other only cen give."
Thackeray drew his contrast—" Almost all
women will give a sympathising hearing
to men who are in ,love. Be they ever so
old, they grow young again in that conver-
sation and renew their own early time. Men '
are not quite sogenerous." Voltaire said—
"All the reasonings of men are not worth
one sentiment of woman." Gladatone says 1
"
Woman is themost perfect when the most
womanly." Dr Clarke says—"Man is not
superior to woman nor woman to man.
• The relation of the sexes is one of equal-
ity ; not of better and worse, or of high-
' er and lower, The loftiest ideal of hum -
mita demands that each shall be per-
fect in its kind, and not be hindered in its
best work. The lily is not inferior to the
rose, nor the oak superior to the clover; yet
the glory of the lily is one, and tbe glory of
the oak is another; and the use of the oak
is not the use of the clover." " Woman,"
says another writer, "must be regarded as
woman, not as a nondescript animal, with
greater or less capacity for assimilation to
man." Dr. Clarke says, again—" Educate
a man for manhood, a woman for woman-
hood; both for humanity."

The New Pastor.
The Portland Advertieer has a good story,
which it credits to Bishop SimpeRn. A
Methodist congregation, who regretted the
departure of a minister whose time had ex-
pired, plied the pastor with questions about
the man appointed to succeed him. The
praetor gravely answered them :--" He is a
good man and an able preachcr, but—there
1 ,don't suppose I ought- to say anything,
and I think on reflection ibat I won't." (news:,
course this inflamed ever s body's curietitir, '
and they insisted that he explain. After
disclaiming any intention to preju lice the
new Man, he informed them that the coming
incumbent parted his hair in the middle.
The congregation were indignant, but de-
cided to suspend final jedgment until they
had seen the new man The nt xt Sunday,
when he walked up the aisle, every et e was
upon him, anti aa he faced the people there •
was a broad smile on every face in the
church. He was bald.

Bei sib:e Advice.
Nothing can be more aensible than the fol-
lowing advice to parents and girls. If girls
would do more useful ordinary work they
would be boththealehier and happier. Just -
let them read the following with some
care :—
Parents would act wisely to encourage
their girls to -work not only for themselves,
but for others, and help them to turn their
lives to the beet account. And girls wouldi
do well to listen to the advice and counselof
their parents—not hurry to rush forth and
seek for work, but to put their hand to that i
which comes n their way, simply andhomee....—
ly as it may appear at first. lb will lead tO
larger and wider spheres in time, if they
will only be patient. All cannot become
teachers and profit:son, or writers, or great
painters and musicians.
Yes, let them do the work that lies next
them and something better will come in due
time, and if it don t they can be both con-
tent and happy with what they have
