moralist, the preacher, and the poes took up.
the same strain and reiterated to the man,
what had been impressed upon the mind of
the child. The value of Time was pro.-
verbal "Time is money''--t is more
than money-itis is knowledge, it is virtue,
and It IS notcreditable to the world that the
proverb has taken more mercenary turn.
The highest value Of time is the opportu-
nifty it affords Of doing good, the means. Of
usefulness; it is the napkin which enfoIds,,
not merely the talents of silver, but know
ledge, virtue, and the frnits Of virtue


"l'ake care of the shllings, and the dol
lars will take care Of themselves,'' was a.

of the greatest secrets Of the success Of
Napoleon was the knowledge of how much,
can be done in little time. fsf easa

when it seemed as if destruction was ine-
vitable, Pat fell upon his knees and began
praying: go Lord Jasus, Pm not one Of

CHICKEN TALK.-Old chanticleer awakes
in the morning, flaps his wings and vocif-
