THE SCHOOL-BOY'S GEAMMAB LESSON 
nV A. A. HOPKINS. 
“Ii.ove, and “thou lovest," and "he loves:” what 
then ? 
Why, “ we love,’’ and "you love,” and “ they love,” 
is next; 
What 1 love, and you lore, and he loves, my pen 
Can hardly relate,—'tisn’t down In the text! 
It puzzles him first, as he studies it over; 
Ho thinks It a mystery. Well, perhaps 'Us; 
But many and many an ardent young lover 
Will Bay tls a mystery hrtoHuU of tiliss! 
As all through the moods and the tenses he traces 
The different forms t hat the action express, 
Unconsciously weaving their spoil are the graces 
Of certain black eyes, till it puzzles him less! 
•• i love !” By-and-hy he is cast Ing sly glances 
Across the old school-room, to meet the bright 
eyes; 
He's learning It fast, for those magical lances 
Young Cupid can shoot very straight, if he tries! 
He secs a new charm with each stolen look yonder, 
The cherry red lips, and the beautiful curls, 
The eyes whose bright witchery veils Itself under 
Their lashes, belong to the sweet cat of glrlB! 
• 1 hive !” lie repeats It. at times, In hts dreaming,— 
Of course It mentis nothing—'tis said in his sleep,— 
Though countless bright stars just above him are 
beaming. 
But two ever Into his visions now creep! 
She gives him a smile, and the nectars delicious 
Th< god* old drank were too stale to compare; 
The sweets he is tasting some fates more propitious 
Have kindly commingled, and give him a share! 
“ Hove!” He repeats It, half knowing Its meaning, 
And presses the hand of the black-oycd young miss, 
Till, growing more hold, very near he is leaning, 
And — there! the young rascal has stolen a kiss! 
He’s learned it “by heart!” ’Tis a common ex¬ 
pression, 
Not always as true as of him, when 'tis said ; 
The lessons we longest retain in possession 
Are learned by the heart, rather than by the head! 
"flove!”' He is anxious to tell her his feeling; 
Is anxious, but fearful; don't know w£at to do. 
He hands her bin grammar, at last, in revealing, 
Aud after “1 love,” faintly penciled, is—" YOU !"

Very soon, however, it returned, taking its 
place again before the mirror; and by its 
movements wc goon discovered that it was 
•watching its own reflection in the glass— 
mistaking it for an enemy. It gazed a mo- 
mont, moved its head toward one side, then 
toward the other; raised its leathers, stepped 
back a little—the reflection of course making 
the game defiant movements—and then, with 
all its power, rnslied forward to etl ike its foe. 
The force with which it struck the mirror 
was such as to send it backward. .Recover¬ 
ing itself a little, it would resume, the- same 
position, and repeatedly go through similar 
movements. Then it would fly away for 
two or three minutes. On returning it would 
repeat its attacks, with hut little variation, 
till it was again tired. Sometimes, before 
living away to recruit, it would step behind 
Hie glass, as if looking for its foe there. Tint 
bird was letl undisturbed by the family, 
though it was closely watched till sunset. I

EXCELLENT ADVICE. 
Bovs, if you wish to shout, and halloo, 
and make a big noise, do please, do it out 
of doors. It does seem to me you might 
expend enough energy there, and sufficiently 
exercise your limbs and voices, so that when 
you come into the house you can be quiet 
and gentlemanly. 
Contending, or laughing, noisily, is very 
disagreeable to everybody hut yourselves. 
Of course, you must have your jokes, and 
your pastimes, and must be in the house in 
winter; but you can be more quiet about it. 
You are very much mistaken if you think 
you are any happier when you laugh and 
talk boldly and boisterously. It sounds very 
badly to those who cannot help hearing you, 
and are taking no part in your amusements. 
Boys can be gentlemen, as well as men, and 
no true gentleman will allow his conduct to 
anuoy others, — at least his best friends. 
Always try to remember wlwrc you are, and 
think whether other people arc affected by 
wliat. you do or say; and if you only mmid 
think, I am sure it would not be so hard 
to do right, would it? Be quiet and obliging 
iu the house, especially at table, and then 
your mothers, and sisters, and friends, will 
not be sorry when you go in, nor glad when 
you go out and leave them in peace.

protracted mootings with his mother in the 
town ol B . Charley’s father was a very 
surly iiuin, and seldom spoke pleasantly to any¬ 
body. One evening at meeting the minister 
talked about bearing the cross if we wished to 
go to heaven; nnd the next morning at break- 
last table Mr. V— seemed to be more surly than 
ever; he scolded at everybody, found fault with 
everything on llie table, and finally left the 
house in great rage. He had scarcely closed the 
door when CiiAftLr.t suul, “ Mu, pa will go to

said his mother; “what makes you think so?”

KEEP YOUR PROMISE 
PROBLEM.—No, 10, 
Witen you promise to do a thins, be sure 
to keep your word, as well for the sake of 
truth as in justice to others. r I his story is 
told of a boy who was faithful to his word: 
lie had borrowed a tool from a neighbor, 
prornis ng to return it at night. Before eve¬ 
ning he was sent away on an errand and did 
not return until late. Before he went ho was 
told that, his brother should see the tool re¬ 
turned. After he had come home and gone 
to bed, he inquired, and found the tool had 
not been sent to its owner. He was much 
distressed to think his promise had not been 
kept, but was persuaded to go to sleep and rise 
early and carry it home. By daylight be was 
up, and nowhere was the tool to be found. 
After a long and fruitless search lie set off 
for his neighbor’s doorstep. And it then 
appeared, from the prints of little bare feet 
on the mud, that the lad had got up in Ills 
sleep and carried the tool home, and went, to 
bed again and knew it not. Of course, a 
boy who was prompt in Ids sleep was prompt 
when awake. He lived respected, had the 
confidence of his neighbors, and was placed 
in many offices of trust and profit.

THE BIRD AND THE MIRROR. 
One bright, sunny day last autumn, as I 
was retiring from tho dinner table of a friend, 
in the country, casting my eye through the 
bow-window, my attention was attracted by 
a little brown bird, sitting on the ground 
near a mirror, which the coachman had 
brought from the city that morning, and let 1 ! 
leaning against the wing of the house. A 
group of fiends end children immediately 
gather d around to look at “birdie,” and 
with one voice we said it had received an 
injury and conhl not fly; but the next mo¬ 
ment we found ourselves mistaken ; for it 
took wing and was off.
