With a love that is almost reverence
his mother and sister speak his name
and with full! hearts thank God for hi
Iife-that life so filled with the beaut,
of self-renunciation. The widow anC
daughter, whose hearts he has made
glad, tell of his humberless acts Of kind
ness, ofhis delicate and unceasing watch
fulness, and daily they ask Gods bless
ing on him whose life is a blessing to
others. ~
In his own home, the9.wife, whose
love should bless him whose gentle min
istry should comfort and strengthen him
turns coldly from him, because he prefers
the happiness of others to his own graf
iication, because the pressing duties of
life claim all his waking hours, leaving
him little leisure for the claims of So
ciety, or for the high intellectual culture
which few attain whose lives are not
wholly devoted to it."
ooh, Ralph, 1 have never known you'll
have SO cruelty misjudged you," said
SAO weeping Wiz. 2 az
The old man continued: "Some men
talk poetry, some write it in words, and
some write it in their lives. The true
heroism which is the poets inspiration,
Ralph Hale has lived. The woman who
has the deepest love of such heart
should reverently and gratefully cherish
it as the richest blessing of her life.''
In the twilight, of that day, Margaret
was waiting her husbands return.
And amid the bitter self-reproachings
that darkened the hour, cleaned pure
holylight. Higher purposes were aroused
within her. In the future she would
make divinely real in her life the beau
tiful ideals which had filled her heart
with uusatisfied longings She, too,
would live for others, and first of al,
for him whom she had misunderstood
A hurried step in the entrance hall,
then on the stairs, and the next moment
she was clasped in her husbands arms.
"You have been very ill., said a
voice, faltering with emotion, "but thank |
God, you are safe now, my Margaret"
"Oh, yes, 1 am safe indeed, now,
"said Margaret. !
In that hour all was made clear be- |
tween them With new resolves for the
future, with deeper love for each other,
and prayer for strength, another page |
of fife was turned for them.
Years afterwards, Margaret, proud
and happy wife, wrote: Il cannot tell |
all he has been to me-my guide when |
[ was ignorant, my strength when I |
my best earthly friend always. |
What do L not owe you for revealing |
the mist Ike that had almost wrecked |
the happiness of BOTH"

THE SNICKERERS.

There are many who consider them
selves will bred, and who go much in so
ciety, who nevertheless violate the SIM
plest rules of politeness, by the silly and
| degraded habit of snickering. The word,
if homely, is expressive. We are accus.
toned to connect smile with thfags
pleasant and graceful; and laugh seem
called by something genuinely amusing.
But when one unfortunately makes tri-
fling error in conversation, or if some
portion of the dress is a little disar-
ranged then these highly civilized
young ladies or gentlemen, look at each
other and snicker f415
SIS it possible" we have asked our
selves "that Miss A or Miss. E can have
been decently connected or respectfully
brought up ? Like mother, like child;
what can have been the home influence
exerted upon them ?''
Whenever we see this tendency to vul-
garity, we correct it as far as we can
Keep steady eye upon the snickerer,
look disapproval, and the effect will be
instantaneous, thoug b the lips may be sill
lent.
One night being present at large party
we noticed lady, who on entering. at
tracted the attention of several would
be ladies, who began to cast expressive
looks, and then. to snicker. Some glanced
down and then puckered their mouths
as though it required the greatest effort
to keep from laughter. Others-oAes
sly plances at the-ubtect of their merri-
ment and in the pantomime expressed
their rudeness. We had previously
noticed one sweet girl, ,arrayed simply aud
beautifully, who, as she saw the impolite
manners of her friends, looked over to
the lady, and then casting severe glance
upon them, she arose and came toward
the object of their fun. I'll
Pardon me, madam" said she polite;
ly, s.here is bit of straw hanging to
your cap-I will remove it."
The lady, pleasing, middle aged wo
man, who could not but have seen tn Q
motions of the thoughtless group blush-
ed deeply, as she returned thank you,
adding, 81 fear / have looked somewhat
ridiculous"
Not at all, madam" replied the
graceful girl, "none but those who are
deficient in politeness would consider an
accident ridiculous.
The''persons, as the English express
ively say of those who do not know how
to behave, looked from each other, with
rosy faces at this merited rebuke, self
condemned and publicly rebuked. It
served them right, and we wished that
every snickerer might be treated in the
same way 1t would soon thin out the
ranks of the self-conceited and presu
miDg-perhaps. make ladies and gentle
men Of them, ultimately.

A MoTHER's LovE-We are indebt-

the following touching and graphic illus
tration of mothers love:
In some spring freshet q river wildly
washed its shores and rent away bough
whereupon bird had built a cottage for
her summer hope. Down the white and
whirling stream drifted the green branch,
with its wicker cup of unfedged song;
and futteripg beside it as it went, the
mother bird. UnheediDg the roaring
river, on. she kept, her cries of agony
and fear piercing the pauses of the storm.
How like the love of the old.fashioned
mother, who followed the child she had
plucked from her heart, all over the
world Swept away by passion, that
might be, it mattered not; bearing away
with him the fragments of the shattered
roof tree, though he did, yet that moth
er was with him, Ruth througha all
his life, and Rachel at death. ndR

THE BEAUTIFUL LAND.

BY BARRY CORNWALL.
There is a land immortal, --as,
The beautiful of lands, %
Beside The ancient portal
A sentry grimly stands. As
He only can undo it, ~ 2
And open wide the door;
And nj ortals who pass through it,
Are mortals never more.
That glorious land il Heaven,
And Death the sentry grim;
The Lord therefore has given
The open keys to him.
And ransomej spirits signing
And sorrowing for SIN,
Do pass the gate in dying,
And freely enter in;
Though dark and drear the passage
That leadeth to the gate,
Yet grace comes with the message,
To souls that watch and wait;
And. at the time appointed,
A messenger comes down,
And leads the Lords annointed
From the cross to glory's crown.
Their 81 CHS are lost in singing,
They re blessed in their tears,
Their journey homewaId winging,
They leave to earth their fears.
Death like an angel seemeth-
- 1--WE welcome thee" they cry
Their face with glory beameth-
'Tis life for them to die.
