C. C. for coughs, colds, vroup Church Items Waterloo County Chronicle. Methinks we ought not to picture duty to ourselves or to others, as a stern task mistress. She is rather a kind and sympathetic mother, ever ready to shelter us from the cares and anxieties of this world and to guide us in‘ the paths of peace. To shut one‘s gelf up: from mankind is, in most eases, to lead a selfish as well as a dull life. Our duty is to make ourselves useful,and this life may be most interesting, and yet comparaâ€" tively free from anxiety. How often do we hear the qnestion "But how can we fill our lives with Jlife, energy and interest, and yet keep care outside !" Many great men have made ship wreck in the attempt. Anthony sought for happiness in love, Brutus in glory, Caesar in doâ€" minion ; the first found disgrace, the second disgust, the last ingratitude, and each destruction. . Riches, oftentimes bring but danger, trouble and temptaâ€" tion; they require care to keep, though they may give much happiness if wisely spent.. While glancing over an old Greek History the other day, I was rather startled to find it laid down by no less an authority than Aristotle that commerce "is incompatible with that dignified life, which it is our wish that our citizens should lead, and totally adverse to that generous elevaâ€" tion of mind, with which it is our ambition to inspire them." I know not how far that really may have been the spirit and tendency of commerce among the ancient Greeks, but if so, I do not wonder that it was not more successful. But is it true that the ordinary duties of life in a province like oursâ€" commerce, manufactures, agriculture in the pursuits to which the vast majority are and must be devoted are incompatible with the dignity or noâ€" bility of life? Surely this is not so. Whether a life is noble or ignoble; depends not on the calling which is adopted, but on the spirit in which it is followed. The humblest life may be noble, while that of the most powerful monarch or the greatest genius may be contemptible. What Ruskin says of art is with duemodification, true of life generally. . It does not matter whether a man "paint the petal of a rose or the chasm of a precipice, so that love and admiration attend on him as he labors and waits forever on his work.. It does not matter whether he toil for months on a few inches of his canvas? or cover a palace front with color in a day, so only that it be a solemn purâ€" pose, that he have filled his heart with patience or urged his hand to haste. It is true that in a subsequent vyolâ€" ume he refers to this passage and adds, "But though all is good for study, and all is beautiful, some is better than the rest for the help and pleasure of others, and this it is our duty always to choose if we have opportunity, adding howâ€" ever, "being quite happy with what is within our reach, if we have not." There are many who.seem to think that we have fallen on an age in the world when life is especially difficult and anxious, when there is less leisure than ever, and the struggle for exisâ€" tence is keener than it was of yore. â€" It may be an age of hard work, but when this is not carried to an extreme it is by no means an evil. _ Methinks cheerâ€" fulness is the daughter of employment, and on the whole I believe that there never was a tine when modest merit and pationt industry were more sure of reward. _ We must not indeed be disâ€" couraged if success be slow in coming, nor puffed up, if it comes quickly. If we are in doubt what to do, it is a good rule to ask ourselves what we shall wish on the morrow that we had done. Moreover, the result in the long run will depend not so much on some single resolution, or on our action in a special case, but rather on the preparation of daily life. Great battles are really won before they are actually fought. To control our passions we must govern our habits and keep watch over ourselves in the small details of every day life. If then you desire to become rid of an angry temper, do not feed the habit; throw nothing on it that will increase it ; at first keep quiet and count the days on which you have not been angry. When you can say "I have not been vexed toâ€"day, nor the day beâ€" fore, but took care when some exciting things happened, be assured you are in a good way. But we cannot expect to be happy if we do not lead pure and useful lives. To be good company for ourselves we must store our minds well, fill them with happy and pure thoughts, with pleasant memories of the past and reasonable hopes for the future. We must, as may be, protect ourselves from self reproach, from care and from anxiâ€" ety. _ We shall make our lives pure and happy by resisting evil, by placing restraint upon our appetites, and perâ€" haps even more by strengthening and developing our tendencies to good. We must be careful then how we choose our thoughts. The soul is dyed by its thoughts ; we cannot [keep our minds pure if we allow them to dwel ter ; Do well is the spirit, and say well the letter; If do well and say well were fitted in one frame, 3 All were won, all were done, And got were all the gain." To say well is good, but to do well is bet Musings entirely without Authority concerning sewing machines appear in the newsâ€" papers. Obviously, it is not in the interests of a successful competiâ€" tion to urge a deceptive position towards the public. But no harm can come of any statements which vindicate truth. Here, then, is scope for a few general and widely known facts:â€" The official list of awards at the Exposition Universelle, The World‘s Fair, held in Paris in 1889 proves that the Some â€" Sensational _ Statements HIGHEST POSSIBLE PREMIUM, THEONLY CRAND PRIZE for sewing machines wes awarded to the Wheeler & Wilson M‘f‘g.

Peace of mind as Ruskin beautifully observes, "must come in its own time, as the waters settle themselves into clearness as well as quietness : you can no more filter your mind into purity than yon\:can compress it into calimâ€" ness ; you must keep it pure and throw no stones into it if you would have it quiet."
