Content and Discontent
Two little girls went into the fields to gath
er flowers. They found buttercups, dande
lions, violets, and many other blossoms. One
of the children was pleased with everything,
and began to pick such flowers as she met
with. In a little while this girl had collected
quite a bunch of flowers ; and though some
of them were not very handsome, yet alto
gether they made a beautiful bouquet.
The other girl was more dainty, and deter
mined to pick only such flowers as were very
beautiful. She disdained to gather the dan
delions, for they were so common ; and she
would not pluck the buttercups, for they were
all of one color, and did not take her fancy.
Even the blue violets were not enough for
her. Thus the little pair - wandered through
the fields till they were about to return home.
By this time the dainty child, seeing that her
sister had a flue collection of flowers, while
she had none, began to think it best to Pick
up such as she could get. A Nemesis had
come upon the fastidious one. She who would
only feed upon. "nightingale's tongues," was
at last glad to get the smallest crumb. The
flowers became so scarce that not even a dan
delion, a buttercup, or a violet was to be
found; and the over fastidious one had to beg
a single dandelion of her sister, and thus
they returned home. On telling their story
to their mother, she addressed them thus: -
My children, let this little event teach you
a useful lesson. Jane has been the wiser of
the two. Content with such flowers as came
in her way, and not aiming at what was be
yond her reach, she has been successful in
her pursuit, and has brought back a beauti
ful bunch of flowers. But Laura, who could
not stop to pick up buttercups and dande
lions, because she wanted something more
beautiful than could be found, collecting
nothing from the field, was finally obliged to
beg a dandelion from her sister. Thus it will
always happen, my children, in passing
through life. If you are content with sim
ple pleasures and innocent enjoyments, such
as nrescattered freely along your path, you
will, day by day, gather enough to make you
contented and happy. Seek not, then, for
costly enjoyments or estravagant pleasures ;
be industrious in gathering those which are .
lawful, and which are adapted to your situa
tion. In this way you will cultivate a con
tented spirit and secure your own peace.
on the other hand, you disdain enjoyments
that are suited to your taste and capacity,
you will be hard to please, and perpetual dis
content will dwell in your bosom. Tbus you
will see that one course will result in some
thing better than riches, while the other will
bring evils that are worse than poverty.—
The Moralist.,
The Beauty of the Heavens
How delightful is it to conteniplate the
Heavens! They are "stretched out as a cu; 4 - °
-min to dwell in !" Not only as far as the hu
man eye can see, but beyond the remotest
boundary which the highest telescopic power
can reach, does the etherial firmament extend!
We can find no limit, no boundary. Millions
of mites may be traversed from any given
point of space, and still the heavens appear
illimitable. And with what gorgeous splen
dor and magnificence is that curtain adorned!
In every direction it is studded with worlds,
suns and systems, all harmoniously moving
in perfect and undeviating obedience to the
_Almighty will. The soul in such a contem
plation is absorbed. Earth ceases to hold us
with its silver chain. The mind, set free from
grovelling pursuits, mounts up, as on the
wings of an eagle, and soars away through
immensity of space, surveying and admiring
the innumerable revolving orbs, which like
so many "crowns of glory," an "diadems
of beauty," bespangle that firmament "whose
antiquity is of ancient days," and which so
powerfully attest that "the hand that made
them is divine !" The immense distance of
fixed stars claims our attention, and awakens
the mast enrapturing feelings in the mind.—
:Reason is compelled to give the reins to im
agination, which tells us there are stars so
distant that their - flight has been shining
since the creation, and yet, amazingly rapid
as light travels, no ray from them has yet
reached us ! "The heavens truly declare the
glory of God," and, in beholding such a dis
play of glory and beauty, we are deeply im
pressed with its manifestation of the power
of the Creator, who sustains, upholds and
preserves such myriads of ponderous revolv
ing bodies, each in its orbit, moving iu uner
ring obedience to His will.
STUDYING DI VI N ITY.—The object of the
great Master, in sending forth men to preach
the gospel, is to save the souls of the perish
ing ; and a successful ambassador of Christ
must know how men feel ; he must enter into
their sorrows and their joys; he must under
stand the perplexities of the business man,
the anxieties of the farmer, the sorrows of
the poor, and the temptations of the rich.—
A man who has only studied divinity, is not
fitted for the work of the ministry. Ile must
have studied humanity, also—he must be a
living, thinking man, with power to catch
and transmit the electric current of sympa
thy, that God-given telegraph among human
souls.-I;Fhange.
Ze — There are few men, who, were they
certain of death on their seventieth birthday,
would think of preparation. To-morrow may
be the gate of an eternity, and they go on in
their folly.

GROVER BAKER'S CELEBRA
TED EAMILY SEWING INIACIIINES.
New Styles—Prices from $5O to $125. Extra
Charge of $5 for _Hemmers.
495 Broadway,
730 Chestnut street,
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they Hem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
scam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do bettor and cheaper sowing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent ,a hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sewing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or line work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROPER & BARER SEWING MACHINE COMPANY
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following

is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing , by

Strickland, wife lice. Dr. Strickland, Editor of N.
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect

durability of the seam. Alter long experience, 1 feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family scwing."—Mrs. E.
E. Spooner, wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a GROVER & BAKER Sewing Machine for
.two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of tin

"I had a tent made-in Melbourne, in 1553, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewing done with
one of Grover& Baker's Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double scams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky backs, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
He would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—l'rqf. North.
'I take pleasure in saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing
