YOUNG FRIENDS : I thought I would write about COUR AGE in this letter, and the reason lor my writing about this is, i am afraid many of you do not know what cour age is. '0 yes!' says iittle Mr. Six-j year-old, T know what it is—it is the jiyht that is in a fellow.' No doubt the most of you think the same, but it is a great mistake. Why, if that were true courage, a dog would he a tar no bier being than a boy, for I never saw the boy yet who would not run front a fierce dog. To be ready to fight at ail times is not courage, but hrutUhncss. racing danger when there is no need.of doing so is not true courage A band of Indians once attacked a block house in which only eight j men were posted. Rushing up on the stockade or high fence which was around the house, they were beat- ; en off by the brave defenders with the loss of several lives. Then falling back, they hid themselves in a field ol rye, and called on the whites to sur render. 'Don't sec any one to surren der to,' replied the commander. Then a big Indian, to show his bravery, leaped up from the rye as high as he could, and cried, 'Here Ibe !' Yon may be sure he did not do that rash act for nothing. In a moment eight bullets from as many rifles pierced his body. His rashness met its reward, and his fellow savages, discouraged by his death, slunk away through the rye. Now such acts are prompted, not by real courage, but by fear Many persons are thus led to expose them selves to unnecessary danger, simply because they are afraid that they will be thought or called cowards. To face danger when there is no necessi ty for it is not courage, but foolhardi u ess. True courage consists in standing up for the right and against wrong. I once heard of a boy who I will call George. He was challenged to fight by a playmato. The boys formed a ring, and all was ready for the battle 'Now strike me if you dare!' said the hoy who had given the challenge George stood quietly looking at the other for a few moments and then calmly replied, 'No, 1 have nothing to striko for.' This soft answer turned away the other boy's wrath, and he said, 4 Well, then, let us be friends again, for I have nothing to strike you for either.' Now which of these boys dis played the greatest courage. The one, by offering to fight, exposed himself to suffer a few blows. The other, by re fusing to fight, exposed himself to the taunts of his enemy and the jeers of his companions, and you all-know these are harder to bear than blows. But ho stood up for the right and against the wrong, regardless of the consequen ces That was true courage. Two boys were one day looking at a horse that was quiotly nibbling the grass. One said to the other, 'I dare you to go near that horse's heels.'— 'There is no need for it,' was the sen sible reply. 'Pooh! I believe you are afraid!' said the first who had spoken 'Look at me!' and-he walked close up behind the horse, who took no notice of him. Emboldened by the animal's quiet behavior, he took hold of his tail,, aid began to whisk it around. Not; liking this, the horse struck out his heels and laid the boy senseless and bleeding on the ground. His compan ion tried in vain to restore him to con sciousness, and finding that help was necessary, bravely caught and mount ed the horse, and without saddle or bridle rode him to the nearest house and procured assistance. That was true courage. To possess a fighting disposition is brutishness; to display a daring, ven turesome spirit is foolhardiness, to face danger in order to defend the right or to aid a suffering fellow-being is true courage In a word, the boy who dares to do right is the truly courage ous boy, and all others are cowards at heart. •Give nir the dauntless boy Who flinches not from labor or fatigue, ltut movea right on the palh of duty, nod will stand by the bov who boldly stands Ity God's command; (io<{ will give him energy And courage now, aud aftcmurd success.' Your friend, MAZ LYNNE. Sixrlf you saw a man digging for cr-s in a snowdrift, you would eay at once he was crazy. But in what re spect does this man differ from you while you sow the seed of idleness and dissipation in your youth, and ex pect elevated affections and good prin ciples in advancing years. 'My Boy Drunk.' 'Drunk ! my boy drunk !' and tears sturted to the mother's eyes, and Bhe bent her head in unutterable sorrow. ! In that moment the visions of a use ful and honorable career were destroy ed, and one of worthlessness if not ! absolute dishonor, presented itself.— Well did she know that intemperance walks hand in hand with poverty, j shame and death, and his mother's j heart was pierced as with a sharp pointed steel. Ah ! young man, it the holy feeling of love for her who bore you is not dead within you, shun that : which gives her pain—adhere to that : which gives her joy. It she is with her Father in heaven, shun thateour.--e : of life which shuts the gates of heaven against vou, and debars you from her society forever.

Lewistown, April 17, 1867-3 m* Experience Proves there are only Two VALUABLE Machine Stitches: tji i m m h ELASTIC STITCH AND THE SHUTTLE Oil LOCK STITCH, THE Grnver A Baker Elastic-Stitch Sewing Machines are superior to all others for the following reasons; j 1. They sew direct from tho spools, and require no I rewinding of thread. 2. They are more easily understood ami used, and ; less liable to derangement than other machines. 3. They are capable of executing perfectly-without change of adjustment, a much greater variety of work than other machines. 4. The stiich made by these machines is much more firm, elastic, and durable, especially upon articles ! winch require to he washed and ironed, than any other stitch. I 5 This stitch, owing to the manner in which the i under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump ' i and beautiful in use, and retains this plumpness and ' j beauty even upon articles frequently washed and | j ironed until they are worn out. j 6. The structure of the seam is such that though it i be cut or broken at intervals of onlv a few stitches it j will neither open, run, or ravel, but remains firm and durable. 7. Unlike other machines, these fasten bothendsof | the seam by their own operation. I 8. \\ ith these machines, white silk is used upon the ' right or face side of the seam, cotton may be used j upon tlieotbcr side without lesseningthe strength or ; durability of the seam. This can be done on no othet ! machine, and is a great saving upon all articles stitch- I ed or made up with silk. 9. These machines, in addition to their superior merits as instruments for sewing, by a change of ad justment. easily learned and practiced, execute the j most beautiful and permaueut embroidery and orna : mental work.
