KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN.

The following is from the pen of Rev. C. H. Spungeon :—

“ Nobody is more likc an honest man 'than a thorough rogue. When you see I. man with a great deal of religion display- ed in his shop window, you may depend upon it he keeps a very small stock of it within. Do not chose you friend by his looks ; handsome slmcs often pinch the feet. Don't be food of compliments ; remember, ‘ Thank you, pussy, and thank

you, pussy, killed the cat. Don't be- lieve in the man who talks most; for mewing cats are seldom very good mous- tors. By no means put yourself in another person‘s power; if you but your thumb between two grinders. they are very apt

to bite. Drink nothing without seeing it; sign nothing without reading it, and make sure that it means no

more than it says. Don't go to law :unless you have nothing to lose; lnwyers‘ .houses are built on fools‘ heads. In any business, .never wade into the water ‘where you cannot see bottom. Put no dependence upon the label of a bag ; and .count money after your own kin—Sec the sack open before you buy what is in .i. ; for he who trades in the dark asks to be cheated. .Kecp clear of the man who .dosa.not value his own character. Be- ware of every one who swears; he who would blasplieme his Maker, would make no bones of lying or stealing. Beware of no man more than yourself; we carry .our worst enemies within us. “'hen a .new opinion or doctrine comes before you, do not bite till you konw whether it is bread or a stone; and do not be sure that the ginger-bread is good be- cause of the gilt on it. Never shout holloa! till you are quite out ofthe wood; and don't cry fried fish till they are caught in the not. There's always time .enough to boast—wait a little longer. Don't throw away dirty water till you have got clean ; keep on at scraping the roads till you can get better work; for the poorest pay is better than none, and the humblest office is better than being out of employment. Always give up the road to bulls and madmeu ; and never fight with a coal-beaver, or contend with a base character, for they will be sure to blacken you,—

‘ Neither trust nor contend,

Nor lay wuges. nor lend,

And you niny depend

You'll have peace to your end.” a-»—

I’RESEEVATION 0F LEATHER

The following valuable hints in regard to the preservation of leather we copy fron the Shoe and Leather Reporter 2

The extreme heat to which most men and women expose boots and shoes duri- ing wintcr deprivcsleather of its vitality, rendering it liable to break and crack.

“’hen leather becomes so warm as to give off the smell of leather, it is singed. Close rubber shoes also destroy the life of leather. All varnishes and all black- ing containing the properties of varnish should be avoided.

Shoe leather is generally abused. Persons know nothing or care less about the kind of material used than they do about the polish produced. Vitriol is used until every particle of oil in the leather is destroyed. To remedy this abuse the leather should be washed once a month with warm water; and when about half dry a coat of oil and tnllow should be applied, and the boots set aside for a day or two. This will renew the elasticity and life in the leather, and when thus used upper leather will seldom break or crack.

Don't wash harness in water and with soap. No harness is ever so soiled that a damp sponge will not remove the dirt. When harness loses its lustre and turns brown, which almost any leather will do after long exposure to the air, the liar— ness should be given a new cost of grain black. Before using this grain black, the surface should be thoroughly washed with potash water until all the grease is killed, and after the application of the grain black, oil and tallow should be ap- plied to the surface. This \villnot only " fasten the color," but make the leather flexible. Harness which is grained can bc cleansed with kerosene or spirits of turpentine, and no harm will remilt ifthe parts affected are washed and dried im- mediately altcrwnrds.

Funxrrcnrz eras.—Mcn marry for fortune, and sometimes to plcnso their fancy; but, much oftener than is sus. pected, they consider what the world will say of it,-—how such a woman in their friend's eyes will look at the head of a table. Hence we see so many insipid beauties made wives of, that could not have struck the particular fancy of any man that had any fancy at all. These 1 call furniture wives, as men buy furni- ture pictures, because they suit this or that niche in their diningvparlors.

“ The stately step of a piper" is a pro- “crb in Scotland, which reminds us of an anecdote of a certain or his lord when in attendance upon the Queen at Balmoral. a few years ago. Having been commis. ‘sioned by a friend to procure a performer on the pipes, he applied to her Majesty s piper, a fine stalwart Highland-man, and upon being asked what .kind' of am- cle was required, his lordship said in re. ply, “Just another as yourself." I'lhc consequential Celt readily exclaimed " There are plenty o' lords like yourscl, but very few sic pipers as me."

A clergyman at Cawbridge preached a sermon which one of the auditors com- mended. “ Yes," raid the gentleman to whom it was mentioned, “ it was a good sermon. but he stole it.” This was repeal. ed to the preacher, who resented it, and called on the gentleman to retract. “ 1 will." replied the aggressor. " I said you hsdstolen the sermon. I find I was wrong. for on referring to the book whenco I thought it was taken, I found it there."

Orv: Tums ’l‘lllt Barn—It has been said by n clergyman—who says every- thing \vcll——" Never shy an old sermon at the devoted heads ofthe few W'IIO hsvr» ventured out on a rainy Sunday,
