Children's §egartment.
Who Taught Them?
Who taught the bird to build her nest
Of wooi. and hay, and moss?
"Who taught her how to weave it best,
And lay the twigs across?
Who taught the busy bee to fly
Among the sweetest flowers;
And lay her store of honey by,
To eat in winter hours?
Who taught the little ant the way
The narrow hole to bore;
And thro' the pleasant summer's day,
To gathe.' up her store ?
'Twas God who taught them all the way,
And gave their little skill.
And teaches children, if they pray,
To do his holy will.

Letters to (Soys and Ciirls.
NO. HI.
MY DEAR. 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,

Sixrlf you saw a man digging for

'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. The drunkard can

Examining a Teacher.
Mr. Trustee Snickles was sitting in
his doorway, one da}', when Saunders
presented himself before him, a perfect ;
stranger, in search of a school to keep
for the w inter
'Have you ever kept a school ?'
'No sir,' replied Saunders.
■ What are 3 our qualifications?' asked
Snic kit's
'I have been through the rule of
three and interest, and can read and
spell any word in the spelling book;
and I reckon I can flog any boy who
won't mind.'
'Have you any recommendations?'
'No, sir, 1 thought you would exam
ine me, and if 1 was qualified, I could !
hire out.'
'What do you ask a month ?'
'What do you pay, old chap?'
'Well, according to the qualifications
of the teacher.'
'l'd like to be examined then. If
y-ou'll bring on y our books you may
begin.'
'(>. I can tell all about a teacher by
seeing him walk.'
'That's easily done,' said the candi
date with an air.
'Wull l \ir ' ial I < <VAII ant
•wen, men, saiu nmeiiies, you sei
out and walk up the road,' pointing
in the direction which Saunders catue,
and when I'm satisfied, I'll call to you
to stop.'
The teacher started off at a brisk
pace, and Snickles shut the door and
went into the bouse.
When Saunders reached the top of
the lull half a mile away, it began to
[occur to him that his examination had
pa.-sed.

' Anxious to Marry. —Once in a church
a young man who carried the collec
tion plate, before starting to collect,
put his band in bis pockel and depos
ited his contribution on the plate, and
then passed it around omorig the con
gregation, which numbered many
yound and pretty girls. The girls, as
they looked at the plate, all seemed
astonished and amused, and the young
man taking a glance at the plate, found
; that instead of a shilling, he had put
a conversation lozenge on the plate,
with the words, '\\ ill you marry me?'
i in red letters, staring everybody in the
face. None of the young ladies, how
ever, closed with the offer.
Bay" Some young ladies, feeling them
selves aggrieved by the severity with
which their friends animadverted on
their gay plumes, crinoline, scarlet
petticoats, and flounces, went to their
pastor to learn his opinion
'Do you think,' said they,'that thero
can be any impropriety in our wearing
I those things ?'
•. 'By no means,' was the prompt reply,
j'when the heart is full of ridiculous
1 notions, it is perfectly proper to hang
out the sign.'
To plunge a young lady six fath
>|oms deep in happiness, give her two
i canary birds, a ball dozen moonbeams,
fifteen yards of silk, an ice cream, sev
l erul rose buds, a squeeze of the band,
land a promise of a new bonnet. If
she won't melt, it will bo because she
| can't.
B*?X- A gentleman once asked, 'What
is woman { when a happy married
man replied : 'She is an essay on grace,
|in one volume, elegantly bound. Al
though it may be i/ear, every man
" should have a copy of it.'
Bfcgr Somebody advertises for agents
i to retail a work entitled, 'Hymenial
i Instructor.' A cotemporary adds:—
| 'The best hymenial instructor we know
, of is a young widow. What she don't

RECIPES.
A Seasonable Recipe. —As the black
berry season is almost at hand, we
•rive place to the following item for the
information of our readers: !
There is no wine equal to tho black
■ berry when properly made, either in
flavor or for medicinal purposes, and
persons who can conveniently do so,
should manufacture enough lor their:
own use every J'ear. as it is invaluable
in sickness as a tonic, and nothing is
a better remedy for bowel diseases.
We, therefore, give the receipt for:
making it,and having tried it ourselves,
we speak advisedly on the subject :
i'Measure your berries and bruise them;
jto every gallon adding one quart ol
| boiling water. Let the mixture stand
j twenty-four hours, stirring occasional
1 ly; then strain off the iiquor into a
1 cask, to every gallon adding two pounds
iof sugar; cork tight, and let it stand
1 till tire following October, and you wil
j have wine ready for use, without fur
tlier straining or boiling. 1 bis makes
ja most excellent and palatable wine.'
frosted Lemon Pie. —Take 5 table
spoons of brown sugar, and 2 lemons,
squeeze the juice and grate the rind, 1
| (or 2 if you prefer) tablespoons of flour.
| I cup ot cold water, 2 tablespoons
j melted butter, yolks of 4 eggs; mix:
beat the whites of the eggs to a stifl
froth, mix them with 4 tablespoons fim
white sugar for frosting. Put the
I frosting on just as the pie is taken out
jof the oven, then put it back till of a
light brown color.
Cem Graham Cake. — fake 1 pint ol
milk, i pint Graham (bran) flour, i
i pint of wheat flour, 1 teaspoonful salt,
j 2 eggs; mix thoroughly. Heat and
i grease the pans, put in the batter, and
bake immediately in a very hot even.
Drop Biscuit. —Two pounds flour, I
pound butter, a little salt, £ pint yeast;
mix with a pint of warm milk toa stifl
I batter. Set it to rise, and when light,
drop it on the pans without disturbing

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.

Instantaneous Window Polish.
IT DOES away with soap suds or hot water, thus
avoiding the slops upon the floor or adjoining paint,
| and the disagreeable sensation of the water running
• down on the arms, under the sleeves, and wetting
i them to the shoulders. It leaves no lint upon the
j glass, and gives it a more transparent and clearer ap
; pearance than can be got with ten times the amount
iof labor and time in washing. For poshing Mirrors,
■ or any kind of Stiver, Bras* or Tln>ware, it
I ; has no equal. The polish is warranted to contain no
f acids, nor anything of a poisonous or injurious char
j aoler. but is perfectly harmless in every respect.
