supposed in the highest flights of its imagination ever to have soared to brown bread Is not the attempt to rouse in these sluggish minds any enthusiasm for the ambrosial food Quixotic to tl e last Nay is it to in- into their stolid souls any con- ception of the ethereal flavor which my inmost frame when I sit down to a repast of brown bread Yet in the great multitude gathered from every nation

and in the same it being asked where be should be interred replied My friends tbe journey beyond the grave is as long from one place as another soul upon which yon cannot lay hands being ilw one great reality the place and mauner of the body's becomes of comparatively trifling importance The truly spiritual mind is indifferent to it To such heaven is not so far off as it is deemed the grave is tbe door that opens into it Let the grave then be garlanded and let all neral processions pass under a rainbow arch of hope So many clerks are proving defaulters we wonder em- do not employ young women instead of young men The don't go on benders and spend their ers cash and many of them are as well qualified to perform the duties of a clerkship as the generally of young men first place they imply small rooms Not cramped but ble So small that the light and heat are radiated from all parts Family comfort cannot thrive in a halt or a field I imagine that the boy who did not feel sufficiently acquainted with hhs father to ask him for a new cap lived in a residence I doubt not for the reason people living among mountains are more sociable than those who live on plains tion like a smile dies it is ted Secondly we like small houses because they look paid for and a small house paid for holds more of happi- ness and ieal friends than a large one unpaid Anything unpaid is able To an honest man debts are de- mons and an indebted boose a haunted house full of creeping horrors and quietudes as those described by Hood Thirdly we like small houses they look sympathising They are ike people not more ready to make acquaintance A big house is like a big Stately porticoes and lordly halls are like the titles D D LL D distant and inclined to he repellent In th e fourth place we like a small ouse because it excites no envy It matters not how elegantly it Is by shrubbery and flowers its observers are its admirers and friends It does not fall under the evil and no man who has a soul would wish even his abode of his wife and be an object of envy Everbody can say and is en- to say I can build such a words are equivalent to a blessing Fifthly we like a small because it must always remain the houses Tbe industrious ic can always have such a house The diligent laborer can own by patient industry such a house The widow can live in such a house and what a rich rational comfort it is to live in such accommodations as of necessity must be tho dwelling places of nine of the Sixthly we like small houses because in such most of us begin life It with small houses that the affections of young couples the first cares and and joys of married life are mostly associated Most of tis begin life in a small way In the last place we prefer the small house because ic is not so far removed from
