The Sympathizing woman.

the probability of its truth,
IF we were called upon to describe Mrs. Dobbs,
we should, without hesitation, call her a sympa-
thlzing woman. Nobody was troubled with any
malady she hadn't suffered. "She knew all about
Il by experience, and could sympathize with them
from the bottom of her heart"
Bob Turner was wag, and when one day he
saw Mrs Dobbs coming along the road towards his
house, he knew that in the absence Of his wife he
should be called upon to entertain her, he resolved
toplay little on the good woman's abundant store
ofsympathy.
Hastily procuring large blanket, he wrapped
himself up in it, and threw himself on a sofa
near by.
"Why, good gracious! Mr.. Turner, are you
sick p asked Mrs. Dobbs as she saw his position.

"Nobody can tell Mr.. Turner what I've suffer-
"Then again I'm very much distressed by in
Hammation on the bowels"
eff you've got that, pity you" commented
Mrs Dobbs; "for three years steady was afiict-
ed with it, and don't think I've fully recovered
yet"
"Rheumatism," added Bob.
"Yes, that's pretty likely to 90 along with neu-
ralgia. II did with me-"
"Toothache," suggested Bob
"There have been times Mr.. Turner" said the
sympathizng woman, "when thought ! sh Iuld
have gone distracted with the toothache."
"Then," said Bob, who having temporarily ran
out of his stock Of medical terms, resorted to q
scientific name. "Tm very much afraid that I've
got the techydsduris."
"I shouldn't be at all surprised said the ever
ready Mrs. Dobbs az had it when ! was young"
Though It was with great difficulty that he could
resist laughing, Bob continued

Bob took breath, aud wondered what Mrs. Dobbs
would say TO that.
"0h, Mr.. Turner, is il possible, exclaimed the
lady. It's horrible ! know Il is l frequently

Bob could stand il no longer; he burst into a
roar Of laughter, which Mrs. Dobbs taking for a
precursor Of violent paroIysm Of insanity, she

Beautiful lines these, on a very touching subject

The blessed little children
Who die in early years,
Their gentle lives are never dimmed
BY misery and tears.
The happy little children
Who brighten earth awhile,
And then clasp gladly deaths cold hands,
And leave us with smile.
The blessed little childrenl
They sin and suffer not,
Nor live TO mourn, in later years,
Their dark and weary lot.
They only see upon the earth
The gladness and the sun,
And then, with smiles upon their lips,
Their pilgrimage is done!
Souls Of the blessed children
envy We your rest,
That We so quickly could lie down
In earth's warm, quiet breast.
wish my hands had long been bound,
As straigbtly as your own,
And that your silent company
Were all that had known.
o dead and blessed childrenl
Why did draw my BREATH
Why were my eyes not gently closed
In sleep that brought mo deathf
Why were your hearts so calmly stllled,
While mine IL beating yet;
And why upon my lips was not
The seal Of silence set?
o blessed angel children!
cannot join We now,
Earth's cares are beating in my heart,
And throbbing on my brow
And bitter words are on my lips,
(Alas! they draw their breath!)
And worldly passions light my eyes,
While thine are calm with death.
And now, oh! blessed children
cannot leave the earth,
Aas that still seek for love,
For happiness, and worth
/ am not pure enough to die
am too worldly now;
But wish were buried child,
Who persisted long ago.
O happy, blessed chidrenl
Your hearts are calm, in rest
While mine beats wild and wailing still,
In my unquiet breast;
And vet, earths joyance is so sweet,
Earth's love and hope, 50 dear,
That for its sake we still would live,
To love and sorrow here.
