Most boys and girls do not like .sermons; they say they are too long for their high ness. Perhaps they may like these short sermons. They will give food to think over, and must not be read too hastily. A Swedish boy fell out of the window nd was badly hurt, but, with clenched lips he kept back the cry of pain. The King, (iustaviia Adolphu.s, who saw him fall, prophesied that the boy would make a man for an emergency. And so he did, for he became the famous General llauer. A boy used to eiush the flowers to get their coin)', and painted the white side of his father's cottage in Tyrol with all sorts pictures, which the mountaineers gazed at as wonderful. Ho was the great artist Titian. An old pa1 titer watched a little fellow who amused himself making drawings of his pot and brushes, easel and stool and id : "That boy will beat inn one day." So he did, fur he was Michael Angelo. German boy was reading a blood and thunder novel. Right in the midst of it, he said to himself; "Now, this will nevir do. 1 get too much excited over it, I can't study so well after it. So here goes !" and he flung the book out into tho river, lie was piehter. the great German philos opher. Do you know what these little sermons in -an? Why, simply this, that in boy hood and girlhood are shown tho traits lor good or evil that make the man or woman L'ood or not. I'NC'liK KSIOK'S ISIXIM. m i:s:m i: II ISM.

"Oh," said Mr. G., jocosely, "put up on your friends" "Don't know a soul iu town," was the answer. Finding the treasurer firm, Smith left the office. Wbeu Mr. G. went to dinner, he found the gen tleman from Duplin sitting on the front steps. When Mr. G. entered (ho door Siniih was right behind him.

If a man has a genuine idea, he can make himself understood. Literature is the diet ol' the common mind, but genius feeds on the unwritten things. You may travel a good ways un whisky, and travel fast while you are going, but you can't get hack when you want to. When you have learned to listen, you have already ucipiired the rudiments of a good education. Faith won't enable a man to lift a ton ill at once, but it will, ten pounds at n time. I never have seen un idea too big for a sentence, but I have read thousands of sentences too big for nn idea. Vanity and jealousy are the two weak est passions in I lie human heart, aud, strange to tell, they are the most conunuu. A Thoroughly neat woman is a joy un- speukable, but doesn't she make it busy for the dust and for the people iu her neighborhood ! My young disciple, diuft hunt for new things, but study to improve upon the old ones; every flat stone, and most of the bowlders, have been turned over already by the uovelty hunters. We find plenty of people who don't average well; they knuw too much fur oue man, and nut quite enough for two. A DO' l ItltlsUI.UVIl.l.i:. A Chicago special says; There is said to be it young woman now lying in a trance at Alamo, Mich., from which only one iiinn, whoso whereabouts are unknown can release h e r. According to ttio story, tho people ot Alamo have been ainusiug themselves with mesmerism this winter, and several persons have be come quite proficient in the art. Among them was a voting man, named Dwiithi T. Holmes, who seemed to be more success ful than any of the others. On the even ing of January fill Holmes and urn tlur young niau were ut the house of A. ,) Hood, when Miss Kitty lloud and another young woman were there. Mcsmcri-m was experimented with und Holmes suc ceeded in influencing Miss Hood so ell'-'ct-ually that she fell into a faint on the Hour. All efforts to revive her failed, and con vinecd that he had killed her, llo'ui's pledged the, others lo secrecy aud th'd. A doctor pronounced the young lady dead, aud her funeral occurred January l.ith. J bo body bud been lowered into the grave, when the young woman who had been present at the mesmerism went into hysteiics. When she revived she told about Holme's experiment. The pen- rushed into the cemetery aud found the sexton just beginuing to throw the clods upon ttie cotliu. ilia casket was opened and doctors wer.i summoned. They finally concluded that she was alive, but sin' has not uwakeued liom her trance. Various doctors experimented upon her and mesmerists died to restore her, but without uvail. The mesmerists then de bated that only the person who put her iuto the trance could bring her out of it. Efforts are now being made to find 1 lohnes, who has not been heard of since the night of his exploit. One day Death assembled his grisly court and demanded a report from all his terrible ageuts.
