Eepose is beautiful when ifc is the self-command, and selfpossession, tie ,ier> tKenfc dignity or the . love of die creature; but more beautiful yet, when the rest is one of humility instead uf pride, and the trust no more in the resolution we have taken, but in the hand we hold.—Raskin. It has always been a mystory to us where-all the Smiths come from.; but while visiting a oauntry town, the matter was satisfactorily explained by the appearance of a large sign over the door of a factory, with the announcement that this was the " Smith Manufacturing Company." Never be above your business, no matter what that calling may be, but strive to be the best in that line. He who turns up his nose at his work quarrels with his broad-and-butter. He is a poor smith who quarrels with his own sparks; there is no shame about any honest calling. Don't be afraid, of soiling your hand a; ithjero is plenty of soap to be had. We love ourselves notwithstanding our faults, ind we nugat to le-5 our firie©is hi like riiMSior.
