OUR SAVIOUR'S LOVE. 
When He was with us, our Saviour said, 
“ Suffer the Children to oouie unto me :” 
Still I see lllm, with arm* outspread, 
Waiting to gather us round His knee. 
And though there's room for all the rest, 
I think lie loves the Little Ones best. 
Here we lire poorest of all God's Poor, 
Tolling for bread from day to day. 
But laid up In Heaven a treasure Is sure, 
While Money Is round and rolls uwny. 
And though there's room for all the rest, 
1 think He loves the Little Ones best. 
Little hearts make merry, and sing 
How His love to Children warms! 
Little voices ripple and ring— 
How Ue takes them In His urrns ! 
And though there's room for all the rest, 
1 think He loves the Little Ones best. 
[Gerald Massey. 
HURRY. 
BV J. W. QUIXBY. 
Hattie Hubby was a good girl, hut she 
had a great fault. If she had anything to 
do, it had to be done so quickly that her 
haste was often no better than a genuine, 
tearing hurry, with its vexation and loss. 
We say there is nothing in a name, hut 
there seemed to be in this case. Hurry was 
hereditary in Hattie’s family. There was 
a story that her grandmother once sat 
hatcheling flax with two or three of her 
daughters, when a startling accident occurred 
through their careless haste. They had a 
certain amount to finish in a certain time, 
and the energy with which they worked 
sent a cloud of light particles through the 
room. This settled all about, and the fine 
coating on the floor, creeping up to the open 
fire-place, suddenly caught. The fire flash¬ 
ed along the floor, over the great pile of flax 
they had in the middle of the room, and 
frightened them terribly. 
The old lady shouted to her son who was 
chopping wood at a little distance, and he, 
seizing a pall, dashed away to the well. 
They drew water with a wooden hook in 
those days, and this one had the addition of 
a button to keep the pail in its place. But 
the boy was in such a furious haste that he 
forgot the button, and so, when he plunged 
the pail into the well it staid there. Tradi¬ 
tion has failed to preserve for us the issue of 
these events, and lienee, I suppose, we mSy 
conclude that the house did not burn up arul^ 
that the industrious women escaped with 
their lives. 
Now that Hattie has got to he a woman, 
and mistress of her own house, it is painful, 
sometimes, to see how things will go. She 
hears the marks of lier failing even on her 
hands and face. From one to three of her 
fingers are always cut, bruised or burned. 
Rushing along one day with a kettle of boil¬ 
ing sirup between her and her hired girl, 
her foot caught and she fell backwards, the 
hot liquid running all over her hands and 
dress. Fortunately the sirup was so thick 
with sugar that it did not flow readily, or it 
might have taken her life. As it was she 
had to sit lor hours with her bauds in dry 
flour. 
She had ample time, sitting there, to 
reflect upon the bad habit which was cost¬ 
ing her so much time and pain, hut it is 
doubtful if she will ever do much better. 
When a habit, good or had, has once be¬ 
come thoroughly established, it is not easily 
changed. 
Perhaps if the RURAL should give this 
little history a place in its columns, we may 
find something more in this lady’s experience 
to relate.

THE MONKEY AND THE WHISKY. 
A monkey had seen his master and his 
companions drinking. Finding a glass half 
full of whisky, Jack drank it off. It flew to 
his head. He soon began to dance and skip 
about in a most ridiculous manner. Jack 
was drunk. Those who saw him were great¬ 
ly amused with his performances. The next 
day they wanted to repeat the fun. llis 
master looked about, for him, hut he did not 
make liis appearance. 
On looking into his lx>x, he was found ly¬ 
ing down in the furthest corner. Come 
out,” said his master. Afraid to disobey, 
poor Jack hobbled out on three legs. Llis 
fore paw was on his head, saying, as plain as 
possible, flint he had a had headache. 
They left him for a day or two to get 
well, and theu took him to the drinking 
place again. Jack looked tit the glasses 
with terror, and crept behind a chair. When 
his master ordered him to drink, he sprang 
out of the room, and climbed, iu an instant, 
to the top of the house. They called him 
down, but he would not come. IBs master 
shook liis whip at him, but. he grinned de¬ 
fiance. Then a gun was brought; and pointed 
at 3dm. Of all things lie was the most 
afraid of a gun; but he only bobbed liis 
head and leaped to the other side of the 
roof. They -went round and pointed the 
gun at him from that side. Then lie sprang

for the chimney, and, letting himself down 
into one of the flues, held on by his fore 
paws, lie was willing to lie smoked or 
singed rather than to be drunk. Then his 
master gave it up. Jack lived with him for 
several years after that, but nothing would 
ever induce him to touch a drop of liquor 
again. 
That was a sensible monkey—a good deal 
more sensible than some men who are sup¬ 
posed to know better. Young men who 
take the first drink of whisky in drinking 
saloons might imitate Ids example with 
profit, in so far us refusing to touch the vile 
stulf again.

KING OF WINTER. 
In a Rochester seminary the other day, 
the children crowned one of their number 
King of the Winter. The ceremonies took 
place in the school-room, where a suitable 
throne was erected. Girls in white, trimmed 
with hemlock, represented the evergreens. 
,The King was dressed in ermine robes, 
llis ministers were Jack Frost and Boreas,— 
the former dressed in snow and frost with 
icicles and withered leaves hanging from liis 
girdle. Boreas, in black velvet and ermine, 
white wig and moustache, and a huge shin¬ 
ing cap, gave a.loud blast from liis horn. 
The New Year was personated appropri¬ 
ately. Six of the smallest girls were gotten 
ii]) to represent snowflakes. Santa Claus, 
with his pages, was also in the procession.

DANGEROUS PLEASURES. 
I have sat upon the sea-shore, and waited 
for its gradual approaches, ancl have seen its 
dancing waves and white surf, and admired 
that lie who measured it with his hand had 
given it life and motion ; and I lingered till 
its gentle waters grew into mighty billows, 
and had well-nigh swept me from my firm 
footing; So I have seen a heedless youth 
gazing with curious spirit upon sweet mo¬ 
tions and gentle approaches of inviting 
pleasures till they have detained his eye and 
imprisoned his feet, and swelled upon liis 
soul, and swept him to swift destruction.

A Question of Preference.—It may not have 
boon a Bubal four-year-old of whom this tells, 
yet we will venture to say that the mother of 
such a smart, child must bo a Rubai, reader. A 
friend of ours was coming- to New Yorlt from 
Albany, and just opposite him In the car sat a 
lady and her child, the latter u beautiful little 
girl with wonderfully bright eyes and a sweet, 
winsome face,—the very picture, in miniat ure, of 
her mother. She attracted much attention, and 
won inuuy smiles and tender glances, as she 
moved about the seat. An elderly gentleman 
walking through the car, looked into the witch¬ 
ing thing's eyes, and was fascinated at once. 
Stopping, he lovingly putted her Check, and 
asked— 
“ Won't you give me a kiss, pretty one ? I like 
to kiss liltle girls.” 
She looked at him very archly for an instant, 
and then propounded the rather embarrassing 
question,— 
“ Wouldn't you rather Mss mammal" 
or Sweet Singing.— A little girl, delighted at 
the singing of the bobolink, naively asked her 
mother, “ What makes lie sing so sweet—do he 
eat dowel’s ?” 
I.iiile threc-ycar-old Mary was playing very 
roughly with the kitten, carrying it by the tail. 
Her mother told her she would hurt pussy. 
“Why, no I won’t,” said she, “I’m carrying it 
by the handle!”

WALTHAM WATCHES 
Buyers of watches at retail should be on their 
guard against buying watches represented as “ Amer¬ 
ican,'' and which are usually advertised in connec¬ 
tion with the words "Oroide," "Imitation Oold,” 
and other words calculated to attract attention. 
Nine cases out or ten such watches are spurious, as 
our genuine movements nro seldom, tt ever, put Into 
anything but solid gold or silver cases- Large num¬ 
bers of these wortifless watches bear colorable imi¬ 
tations of out trade-niHrks. To avoid Imposition, 
bujer# who d< < not know responsible jew elers should 
flm procure a descriptive aitnluguo of the different 
styles of watches made by the American Watch
