BaT For all that this world is T" thorny

hurry to leave it. The Rev. John Skin

solicitation for halfpenny On feeling
in his pocket, Mr.. Skinner discovered that
he had not halfpenny, but was possessed
of penny piece, which he handed to her.
The sum being double what was expected,
SO excited her gratitude that she ex-
claimed:
"Lord bless you, sir, and may much
good attend your family through life. And
as for yourself, may God take you to your
resting place this very night"
Thank you, madam for your good
wishes" said Mr.. Skinner, but you need

A LITTLE AT FIRST, BUT MIGHTY
AT LAST.
BY C. MACKAY

o.
BY C. MACKAY
A traveller through dusty road
Strewed acorns on the lea
And one took root and sprouted up,
And grew into tree.
Love sought its shade at evening time,
To breathe its early vows,
And Age was pleased, in heats Of noon,
To bask beneath its boughs;
The dorlnouse loved its dangling twigs,
The birds sweet music bore,
1t stood glory in its place,
A blessing evermore
A little spring had lost its way
Among the grass and fern;
A passing stranger scooped well,
Where weary men might turn
He walled it in, and hung with care
A ladle at the brink
He thought not of the deed he did,
But judged that toll might drink.
He passed again--and lol the well
By summers never dried,
Had cooled ten thousand parching tongues
And saved life besides.
A dreamer dropped random thought,
Twas old, and yet twas new
A simple fancy of the brain,
But strong in being true.
1t shone upon genial mind,
And 10 its light became
A lamp Of light, beacon ray,
A monitory flame.
The thought was small--its issue great,
A watch-fre on the hill,
1t shed its radiance far adown,
And cheers the valley still.
A nameless man amid the crowd
That thronged the daily mart,
Let fall the word of hope and love,
Unstudied from the heart.
A whisper on the tumult thrown
A transitory breath
raised brother from the dust,
1t saved soul from death.
o, germ 0, fount! 0, word Of Lowell
o, thought at random castl
Ye were but little at the first,
But mighty at the last.

that their children are grown out Of their
childhood. They think Of them, advise
them, write to them, as if not full fourteen
years Of age. They can not forget the
child. Three times day she thinks who
are absent from the table, and hopes that
next year, at the farthest, she may have
'just her own family there !" and if you
