John Locke, the English philosopher, was a favorite with many of the great noblemen of his age. They liked his robust sense and enjoyed even the sharp reproois in which he occasionally indulged. On one occasion }e had been invited to meeta select party at Lord Ashley’s. When he came they were playing at cards, ana con- tinued absorbed in the game fortwo or three hours. For some time Locke looked on, and began to wrile diligently in a blank beck taken from his pocket. At length they asked him what he was writing. He answered,—My lords, I am _ im. proving myself the best I can in your com- pany ; for having impatiently waited this honor of heing present at such a meeting of the wise nen and great wits of the age, I

thought I could not do better than write down your conversation, and here [ have

in substanceall that has passed this hour er two.” The noble lords were ashamed at the written feéord of their frivolous talk, that they at once stopped card-playing and began the discussion of an important sub- ject. Thomas Carlyle has uttered even a more panzent reproof of idle talk: ‘‘If weean permit God Almighty,” he says, ‘‘ to write down our conversation, thinking it good enough for him, any poor Boswell need not seruple to work his will of 1t.°— Youth's Companion.

PERSONS who cultivate the soil soon find eut that pays them to get the best Seeds, Trees and Plants. Now, many who selland some who buy know nothing about the cenditions upon which they grow. Some seed are vearly uscless aiter the first year; others, again, whose vitality is strong, are good, if properly kept, for many years. As we have been in the Nursery Seed and Market Garden business

FOR ELEVEN YEARS, we think we know something about the nature of Seeds, and weuld not knowingly sell to another what we would net use in our own Garden. Our increasingly large yearly sales seem to point to the fact that our Seeds, &c., are giving satisfaction. Our mailing ac- commodations are so good that we cau send 4 lbs. or less of seeds in one parcei to any Post Oftice for one cent per four oz., thus bringing our Seeds to your ewn Post Office.
