PETTICOAT PHILOSOPHY.

Vanity and lovo make the world j;o roun<l—-vanity first and lovo a long way after. It waa too English who, before they became so -musical, dallied for a w-bilo with painting. There was a time, if we may believe those biographers of manners, the novelists, when all England sketched, and so gave vent to all its superabundant emotions in print. There was no landscape safe from the emotional English woman. Instead of strumming fake notes en the hotel piano, she wont out with a paint-box and sketched tbe uncom'pla.'iJi.i.ng land'.soa|ie. At any i-a-te, the long-taifforing iandf-xmpo made no sund.—Mrs John Lane. Every tear is ar.s-.vcred by a blo-som. Every sigh with pomrs -arxl laughter blent, - Apple blossoms upen tlie breezes icss them, April knows her own. and is content. Susan Coleridge. One sorrow only in God'fi world- has ' birth— To live unloving and unlov'd on earth E. W. Wilcox. Nctliing resting on ite own completeness Caoi have itfi worth or beautv. but alone Becaiiee it leads atrd tends "to further sweetness, Fuller, high, deeper than its own. A. A. Proctor.
