Xifitt ffolito. Something for Children. There are a great many good children; yet once in a while we meet those who, we•itre sorry to say, do not belong to the . class of those we love. Such a ; boy was Matthew. You would not have given a fig to play with him. lie had carpenters' tools, and books, and checkers, and chess, and drawing materials, and balls, kites, and ships, and skates and snow shovels, and sleds—oh, could not toll you all he had. Well, if you wont on a Saturday af te-rnean-to-play with him y ho-would—wach all these things as closely as a cat would a mouse and if you were within reach of them, he ; would sing out, " 11-o n-'t; Of course it was not much fun to go and see him. You had to pay every thing he wantod, or he would poUt and say he would not play at all, Then Matthew was such a baby ! I love a brave boy. le would go scream ing, to his mother if he got a scrach, as if a wild tiger were after him and if you said anything to him about it, he would pout and stick out his lips. ' It was like drawing teeth to get him to g.o across the room to hand you a news paper. He ought to have had a little 1 1 world all to himself, he was so selfish. li When his mother was told of his faults she would say," Oh, he will outgrow theM by-and-by." I knew that his selfishness would grow as fast as he did ; and that when he came to be a man he would be unfeeling to the poor, and make hard bargains with them and wring the last penny out of their threadbare pockets. Oh, dear children, be. generous. If you have but, half an apple give so/iv:bud!' a bite of it. Perhaps some child will say, 'lit I have not anything to give." That i a tuNtrke ; that boy or girl is not living who has nothing to give. Give your sympathy ; give pleasant words and beam ing smiles to the sad and weary-hearted. If a chi'd gals to your school who is poorly clad, patebed, darned, nay even raged; if the tears start to his eyes when your schoolmates laugh, and shun, and refuse to play with him, just go right up and put your hands around his neck, and ask him to play with you. Love him; lave sometimes is meat and drink and clothinc , . You can all lovo the sad and sorrowful, Then never say you have "nothing to give," Illustration for Children I once saw a preacher trying to teach the children that the soul wouid. live af ter they were all dead. They listened, but evidently did not understand. lle was too abstract. Snatching his watch from his pocket he said, James, what is this I hold in my hand?' 'Ai watch, sir,' 4 _ . little clock,' says another. 'Do you see it ?' '.V es sir.' 'llow do you know it is a watch ?' ,'Very well. Can any of you hear it tick ? all listen now.' Aftera pause—'Yes sir, we hear it.' He then took off the case, and held the case in one and and the watch in the other„ . „ 'Novi children which is the watch? You see there are two which look • like wat@lcs.' 'The little one in your right hand.' 'Very well again. Now I will lay the ease aside—put it away down there in my hat. Now leCus see if you can hear the watch ticking.' 'Yes sir, we hear it !' exclaimed se veral voices. • 'Well, the watch can tick and go, and keep good time you see, when the case iN tuken'affond put. in my hat. The Wziteh.goes just as well.: So,. it, is with yeu, children. Your body is nothing hut the,case 7 -the body may be taken off buried up in the ground and the soul live thinkj well as tltis wAtelf will go, as roll: see when the 'case is OE' 'store9 nub 51)opo. tIOR THE 110LIDAYS1 n FANCY GOODS, (a BOOKS, .tc .„ . .
