Like the bee, be out and work Where the sun is shining,

Never in a corner lurk, Whimpering and whining. — you scour the fields you’). find rhyme, or mint, or clover ;

Something to a willing mind

God will still d

When the sky is grim and gray Though the clouds rain fountains. March ; and molehills on your way Don't mistake for mountains if a ghost beside you stand, Make no fearful comment ; But face the shadow boldly, and 'Tis vanished in a moment!

What the folks of you may say Never mind a rattle,

Spin your quiet yarn, while thes Waste their wind in battle. Lies that float on wintry wings

With windy haste will perish But the seed of truthful things

Wear your heart not on your sleeve; But on just occasion

Let men know what you believe With breezy ventilation ;

Prove the good, and make them thine, With warm embrace and ample,

But never cast your pearis to swine, Who turn and rend and trample

Make a penny when you can, ‘Tis useful as a tool is, But who says, Money makes the man, A meagre-witted fool is, Rich as he whose genial breast, With liberal salutation, Hath welcomed ali that’s bright and best Throughout the wide creation.

THE FLIGHT INTO EGYPT.

In looking over an old scrap book I found ihe following beautiful ballad, clipped from an Oswego paper—lI think the Palladium— over thitty years ago. Never having seen it printed in any other form, and wishing to diseover its author, I transmit a copy to you for publication, hoping that you or some of your able correspondents, will furnish me, through your columns, with this information. —A. H. G.}

There is a legend oft told of a gipsy that dwelt In the land where the pyramids be, And her robo was embroidered with stars, and her belt With devices right wondrous to see; And she lived in the days when our Lord was a child (in His mother’s immaculate breast ; When he tled from his foes—when to Egypt exiled, He went down with St. Joseph the blest.

Chis Egyptian held converse with magic, methinks, And the future was given to her gaze; For an obelisk marked her abode anda sphynx On her threshold kept vigil always. She was pensive and ever alone: never was seen In the haunts of the dissolute crowd ; But communed with ghosts of Pharaohs, | ween, And with $ in a shroud.

And the gipsy came forth from her dwelling and prayed That the pilgrims would rest them awhile: And she offered her couch to that delicate maid, Who had come many, many 4 mile: And she fondled the babe with affection’s caress, And she begged the old man would repose ; ‘Here the stranger,” she said, “ever finds free access, And the wanderer balm for his woes.”

A European correspondent thus writes of Strauss, the composer of dance mueic:—

‘Heis as nervous as a composer as he 1s As | a director. Clad in a velvet costume, with

patent leather boots reaching to his knees, | his eyes aflame, and in a fit of inspiration he goes striding through the house like 4

maniac,

him in the salon he clutches his papers, and

Sometimes the waltz begun in the parlour is ended in the kitchen. Frau Strauss who appreciates and understands her Johnn’s habits, has half dozen pianos scattered through the house, and in each room a table with writing material.so that in whats ever nook her Herr finds himself he is quite at home. It was only through her influence that he was induced to undertake a drama- tic work.’

Take hold of the very first one that comes to hand, and you will find that the rest will all fall into line and follow atter like a company of soldiers; and, though the work may he hard to meet when it charges you in a squad, it is easily _ vanquished if you can bring it into line.

The | mountain runs northeast and southwest. It is about seven miles long and one and a | half wide. In its highest points it is near. ily five hundred feet high. Around the | base of the mountain, the ground is full of dangerous hollows, into which animals, and | even men, fali and sink out of sight. Little ‘streams of water are constantly trickling, |even in the dry season, from underneath the salt meuntain, and running into the sea.

“ Then tarry with me,” cried the gipsy with joy, And ye makeof my dwelling your home, Many years have I prayed that tie Israelite boy, (Blessed hope of the Gentiles); would come.

Cupren’s Ctotaing. — Every mother should remember at this season that a small body is much more easily chilled, and there- fore needs more protection against cold than a larger one, and that a child, except when in active exercise, should be comparatively much more warmly clothed than a vigorous adult.

Wuire Bread or Browx,—Comparatively few people in the West are aware that the flour and bread they admire for whiteness are devoid of all the strengthening prox perties of the wheat. he life’ only when it contains a nutritive con~- stituent. There is no nutrition in starch, or, ifany, only a small per centage; and yet it is only the starch of wheat that is used in the manufacture of the flour in general use. Directly under the woody fibre, composing the skin of the wheat ker- nel, we find the real meat of the grain. As is the case with animal meat, it contains phosphates which, taken into the stomach, assimilates with the system and strengthens it. Shall we throw away, or give to our live stock, this most valuable portion of every kernel of wheat, because it is not white and fine like the starch at the core? It isa tolerably good substitute for flesh food ; hence in those countries in which it is retained in the flour or meal, the people subsist much !ess upon animal food than we are compelled te do in this country by our foolish adherence to the exclusive use of the immaculate fine, white products of our mill and bakeries. In cake, certain-

ly, the cooks and bakers do put in a little |

something that is nutritive, viz: eugar and fruit, hence no objection exists, perhaps, to the use of the popular flour in making those luxuries, Griddle cakes, muffins, waffles, et id genus omne, on the contrary ‘unless made partly of Indian or corn

wheat ; made skillfully of attrition flour, they are not only healtby but delicious ,—
