Th^'p iiije lecture^ and, concerts aud fairs—to fay nothing of opera and theatre and tall—which ate'Wot yet qiiite of past., flft* church and do hot turn aside to tne frivolities, and but, occasionally5 to the public social and intellectual entertainments, there are prayer, meet ings and conference meetings,' there are preaching meetings and .special meetings and revival meetings!. And then there are reading rooms and Christian^associations and Christian work, and ti&'lyceum and the singing schools and the glee club. It is easy to say "which of these nisti tutions of civilisation or Chris fciauizatioU should be given lip. Rather the effort of society is to' invent aud organize new appliances for pleasure and profit. The church adds a lyceum, the literary association a prayer meeting, or the Christian union a billiard training. room.. We are not sitting in, judgement on these modifications of society, nor inclined to write ourselves old fogy by lamenting the degeneracy of the times. Yet one may be pardoned for desiring to find room in these crowded days. for so good an institution as an- evening -fi.ia at home.

Christian associations and unions and reading rooms are good so

Words are 8lfn» «f Meas. There are words which seem to have no existence outside of literature and speech-making—they are never heard in conversation, and have been delegated to realms of sermons, novels, poems and lectures. Who ever heard anybody say "Alas!" and what under the sun are "pensive brows Are they ever seen on a face Never! They will only appear on a "countenance," and a pale one at that. Nobody "would fain" if he could help it at least we never heard anybody do so. Who ever "lays his hand upon his heart, and sw«ars"—except in a political speech And why should the proverbial "beggar on a dunghill" choose such a conspicuously ridiculous place of abode? The truth of the thing is that a beggar was never seen there for ten consecutive minutes. In Charles Reade's "Love me Little, Love me Long," Lucy Fountain gets on her high horse and asks her uncle where are all those heroes—those worthies of the "soulful" sort and her uncle tells her they are all here —here, locked up in. his bookcase. That is the place to look for "bro ws," and men and maidens who,say, "Alas! woe's me." The "good- old days" that never existed are also there, surrounded by a "light that was never on sea or land." \'t .•* ili n- t.

Lord Chief Justice Holt, when young, was very extravagant, and belonged to a club of wild fellows, most of whom took an infamous course of life. When his lordship was engaged, on a certain occasion, at the Old Bailey, a man was tried and convicted of robbery on the highway whom the Judge remembered to have been one of his old companions. Moved by that curiosity which is natural on a retrospection of past life, and thinking the fellow did nOt know him, Justice Holt asked him what had become of such and such of his old associates. The culprit, making a low bow, and fetching a deep sigh, said, "Ah,! my lord, they are all "hanged but your, lordship and I."

But so tar as the}7 lead our youth from the quiet of home and create o£ increase the craving for publicity they are not blessings. Better the few books and well read of our fathers in quiet homes, than all the crowded shelves of great libraries, than reading rooms, filled with trashy, sensational literature of the day, with the loss of the home atmosphere. Our merchants and wealthy employers are princely in the bestowment of their means to build up public institutions for the benefit of the homeless. Would they not do more good at less expense by making their homes free to their clerks and employees, and provide for them pleasant, social evenings at home.--Providence
