happier The following story was re- lated to me some time ago and may perhaps explain and enforce my When I was a boy abou t -en years said an elderly friend I was sent to a school many miles distant from my home At the moment of me farewell my mother placed in my hands as a parting gift a pair of silver shoe buckles which in those davs were universally worn She bitterly the rest of the human race To give a single instance of this sitting sity we will introduce the story of a plain spoken old lady from the land of habits I never sued the beat of that ere Captain Spinout said would you believe it he called at our house last just as I had done milking and wanted to borrow my brass kettle for bis wife to make apple sauce in 0 says I she may haver it in welcome Spinout and directly fetched if out of the back room and set it down beside him Well presently our tea was ready and I couldn't do no less than ax him to take tea with us O he couldn't stay a minute but however he con- ch ded he'd take a glass of cider with s my husband and so he aid Well ter I'd done tea I took my knitting work and sot down till I thought it high time honest people should be abed But Captain Spinout had forgot his ry and there he was still setting and ta king with my as ever I late above all things to be rude but a could not hinting to the Captain that it was growing late and may be his wife was waiting for the But he didn't seem to take the hint at he sot and sot and sot Finding words would not have ar y effect I next rolled up my knitting work set back the chairs and told the gals it was time to go to bed But tre Captain didn't mind it no more tb an if it had been the bite of a bat there he sot and and sot Well next I pulled off my shoes roasted my feet as do just before to bed but the Captain didn't mind it no more than nothing at a sot and sot and sot I then up the fire and Bought he couldn't help but take the but la sus he didn't take no no- tice at all not the least grain in t ic there he sot and sot and sot t Thinks pretty slow at king a hint Captain I said plainly that I thought it was bed time always to my but so as I thought the Captain couldn't help taking it to la it did no good at there he sot and eot and sot I Seeing there was no likelihood of lis going home I axed him if he would stop all night 0 no he said he could hot possibly stop a minute so seeing there was no use in saying any thing I to bed But la would you think it when I got up in tlie morning as jtrue as you are alive was Captain Spinout setting jest where I left him the night concluded the old lady lifting her hands in a de- there he sot sot and sot bed into the of the The joiner and immediacy that it was the corpse who be- ing unwilling to be shut up in the fin was now playing its gambols their legs were unable to move with the swiftness proportionable to their and the joiner maid coffin and candle stick rolled over one another from the top of the stairs down into the kitchen Zounds you all cried the landlord Is the devil flying away with dead man pn cried the maid quite chopfallen it is rather the dead man that would run away with us I'll be said the joiner if that dead fellow there has occasion for a coffin than I have why be has got into the mid- dle of the room and has just struck up a hornpipe He cried the landlord taking a light faith we'll soon see that While all the family were trembling and getting ready to follow the master of the house the English nobleman who had again found his chamber had slipt into bed quite out of breath and his friend having asked him where he had been he told he had just been laying with a dead body a dead body it had perhaps the cried he jumping in his turn out of running to the door to call a light The landlord the landlady and the were passing through the gallery no sooner saw him than they imagined that it was the dead who appeared again and down they came much faster than they head over heels from the top to the bottom with the candle stick rolling after them At this confusion joined with their shrieks and clamors the Englishman terrified at the hideous noise soon made for his room and slipt into bed to his without the fear of catching the plague In the mean time an honest country priest who lodged in the inn got up and appeared armed with the holy water and a long broom instead of a little brush he made his sions and the conjurations prescribed by the Romish Church and conducted by way of procession the terrified ple into the chamber of the defunct no harm lay quietly in bed The priest was instantly regarded as a saint and they all cried up the miracle of the holy water which bound the corpse to its good behavior prevented it from being refractory voice is still sounding in my ears I shall never forget those Kenry my dear son you are leaving your mother and you can no longer kneel at her side at your morning and evening prayers I cannot believe that you will neglect those ties when we are but do no your heart to God sometimes in the course of t te If you are happy if you are in trouble look to God in grayer haps this little gift may sometimes re- mind you of my parting injunction I remember I felt very unhappy for so ne time separated from one I oved so but my school lows were kind and social and I soon became in my new tions Though I never to say my morning and evening prayers and forth as well as we were able en- find the path through which we had passed anc regain my lost treasure But to no purpose was our search The two boys at length exclaimed It's of Henry we may as well give it up And if we run hard we may perhaps reach home before we are out So I told them to go and leave me and that I would soon follow them and I again turned back into the field and walked on until I was entirely by the grass i How unhappy how desolate I It seemed as if nobody m the world could feel so wretched as the more so as there was none to feel for my trouble appeared wit lout remedy What shall I do I Is there not one friend who can pity or relieve my dear were here even stopped as my eye rested on an instant the parting scene was before me and my mother's last again sounded in my ears If you happy if you ttre in trouble look to God in prayer j fell upon rny knees I did ook to in prayer I felt that there who could pity and relieve and now happy was it to go to Him It seemed as I hac never prayed before I did p ead for the recovery of my mother's prized gift yet I prayed that God woulu enable me to submit to his will with patience and cheerfulness and before I rose from my I thought I was perfectly willing that God should relieve me in the way he thought best a change in my feelings effected by t lat short him he will er load seemed I jit the in trouble he may be Being

should so soon have ceased o ber her parting request Perhaps I was not altogether convinced of the necessity of praying more thin day or perhaps I was disappointed in not feeling so happy as I expected from exercise because my heart was not engaged in the work it was when I had repeated these ers they were merely formal and un- meaning without feeling without sincerity Time passed on and the summer was nearly over when ou a delightful afternoon I was returning to company with my school after a ramble of two hours which we had been permitted to take a reward for good behaviour The road through which we were passing was extremely dusty and to avoid this inconvenience as well to get home the sooner as it was late one of boys proposed taking i short cut large field of high grass adjoining our teacher's house Now this was forbidden ground as this master had us some time before never lo go through tha field for which he had sons We stopped for a few moments to whether we hac be ier obey or disobey but the we should probably be punished the time a lotted for our wa k decided us to choose the shorter way through the forb field we went We walked doag in silence through the thick high grass each one cor scious that he was no ng exactly and the difficulty we iad in ting along made it appear as if this way was quite as long as the other We when we reached the end of the field aid I'm right derail things aright it was almost with a light step that I hastened homeward I still continued my search in a few moments almost wild with I snatched mv lone as it lay shining at my I knelt again to pour out my thanks for this striking instance of the ness of God and I then felt that if it was happy to pray in trouble it was most happy to give thanks for de ance from that trouble From that hour I resolved to begin a new of life and that when was when I was in trouble I look up to God in prayer I I ran swiftly home and although it was almost dark when I it yet owing to some unusual engagement of our teacher the bell hac not yet rung My absence had not therefore and my disobedience not have been discovered But I feu that concealment was only increasing my guilt and pressing heavily my conscience So as soon as my eacher had taken his seat I Walked up to him and related my story caving only the my companions I begged he would not make me close I had scarcely finished speaking ever before they stood x my side each declaring that he hat me to go through the fo bidden field and entreating the master to for- give me and punish them j Our teacher who the c man
