A BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE.* 
BY KATE CAMERON. 
Dearest Father! While thoye&rs 
Vanish with their smiles and tears. 
And full many a loved face 
Has left but a vacant place, 
Death has kindly passed ns o’er — 
Father, mother, children four. 
One In tender memory kept 
On the hillside long has slept; 
But the rest ure waiting still. 
-May we thus do Heaven’s will 
Bong may this dear household chain 
With but one lost link remain ; 
And on thy dear natal day, 
For GOD’S blessings would we pray. 
Faithful friend and lender guide. 
We draw nearer to thy side, 
WiiDe sweet thoughts of long ago 
Brighten all our path below. 
What tho’ summer bloom has fled ? 
Autumn- 1 .* glory crowns thy head, 
And Life’s Indian Summer fair 
Tints the silver of thy hair 
Fairer fae<? and nobler form 
Ne’er met winter’s chilling storm • 
But within this border-land 
Long rotiyst thou, dear Father, stand. 
Tho’ the autumn’s garnered gold 
Brings not treasures manifold, 
Yet is It with blessings fraught, 
Pure desire and holy thought: 
Conscience void of all offense— 
An Uoneet man '»inheritance 
Better this than sordid wealth, 
Gained by meanness, Spoilt by stealth ; 
And tho' hero no stately hall 
Thine own dwelling thou mayst call. 
Yet in yon bright world of bliss 
We lland what we missed in this! 
Then an undivided hand 
May we meet at God’s right hand. 
Praising Him for trial* past 
Which make rest more sweet at last 1

RINGLETS AND BEARDS. 
TnF.RF. are few things on which personal 
beauty so modi depends as on a fine head of 
hair. In every age, and in almost every na¬ 
tion, this fact has appeared so self-evident 
that particular attention has been paid, by 
both sexes, to the cultivation and preserva¬ 
tion of this indispensable ornament. That 
the ancients considered fine hair a great em¬ 
bellishment, may be shown by numerous 
references to history, both sacred and pro¬ 
fane. Among the Hebrew women, in par¬ 
ticular, great care and attention was bestowed 
to preserve and beautify their raven locks; 
and a prophet was more than once commis¬ 
sioned to threaten them witkiafcfnitf unless 
they repented of their sins; and the severity 
of such a threat may he appreciated when it 
is considered that the loss of the hair was 
accounted a disgrace, amounting almost to 
infamy. For a woman to lose her hair, or a 
man his beard, either by accident or design,
