"What a beautiful morning this is 1" exclaimed Ann, as they emerged from the house. Malgre some inconveniences, factory girls are as happy as any class of females.

I sometimes think it hard to rise bo early, and work so many hours, shut up in the house. But when I get out at night, on the sabbath, or at an other time, I am just as happy as a bird, and long to fly and sing with them. And Alice will keep herself shut up all day. Is it not strange then that all will not be as happy as they can be It is so unpleasant!" Isabel returned Ann's smile. Yes, Ann, is strange that every one does not prefer happiness.

Indeed, it is quite probable that every one does prefer it. But some mistake the modes of acquiring it, though want of judgment. Others are too indolent to employ the means necessary to its attainment and appear to expeet il to flow into them, without taking any pains to prepare a channel. Others, like our friend Alice, have constitutional infirmities, which entail upon them a deal of suffering, that, to us of different mental organization, appears wholly unnecessary." Why, don't you think Alice might be as happy as we are, "if she chose Could she not be as grateful for letters and love tokens from home Could she not leave her room, and come out into this pure air, listen to the birds, and catch their spirit Could Bhe not do all this, Isabel, as well as we Well, I do not know, Ann. Perhaps not.

You know that the minds of different persons are like instruments of different tones. The same touch thrills gaily on me, mournfully on another." Yes and I know, Isabel, that different minds may be compared to the same instruments, in and out of tune. Now I have heard Alice say that she loved to indulge this rnelan choly that she loved to read Byron, Mrs. He mans and Miss Landon, until her heart was as gloomy as the grave. Isn't this strange even silly It is most unfortunate, Ann." Isabel, you are the strangest girl I have heard a great many say that one cannot make you say anything against anybody and I believe they are correct.

And when you reprove one, you do it in such a mild, pretty way, that one only loves you the better for it.

My way of life Has fall'n into the sere, the yellow leaf; And that which should accompany old age, As honor, love, obedience, troops of friends, I must not look to have." Such is the pathetic language put into the mouth of Macbeth by the immortal bard of Avon. The history of that ambitious aspirant is well known at least to the lovers of the drama.

Endowed by nature with superior talents, and possessed of a laudable desire for distinction, he bade fair to attain eventually the highest honors which his countrymen could confer upon him. But there were certain obstacles in the way that marred his progress, and which time alone could legitimately remove. He yearned for power, and became impatient of restraint. At this juncture, the witches presented themselves they prophecied pleasant things to him they hailed him, finally, "King of Scotland." Resigning himself to fate, he boldly undertook to verify the truth of their predictions, and murdered the good old Duncan. But punishment followed close upon the heels of transgression.

Remorse, deep and bitter, took possession of his soul and as he approached the termination of his career, he gave utterance to the sentiment already quoted.

I can only look to God for protection from temptation, and for guidance in the right way. When He keeps me, I am safe when He withdraws His spirit, I am weak indeed.
