When we hear mechanics cry out a.

TfME-What blessed order OF nature
tits that the footsteps OF time are inaudi-
BILE, and noisless. and that the seasons OF
life like those of the year, are SO indistin-
gnishably brought on in tie gentle prog
ression. and are SO blended the one with
the other, that the human being Scarcely
knows, except from faint and unpleasant
senstion that he is growing oldl b.
So day steals into night through the
crimson curtain of twilight. 81 the Col
den gates of dawn swing around noisless
as the portals of heaven. Even the beat Of
the earth is mufled, that We may not know
how fast it struggles out. From the
building Of the oak to the .roolng OF the
world, thsre is no cliuk Of the mach inery.
There is no noise save the helpless waves,
or the rent air groaoiug with the light
ning's bolt, or now and then the play of
volcanoes valves. or OF the puny cries of
insects. or of man in all this world Of ours,
The past is dumb--tbe future, silent. aud
the present makes but slight ripple, like
the trailing ola steamer on quiet sea.

made their appearance in that region this
Winter. The Indians report them plenty
at the Saguenay, where they never were
seen before. Tkeir bill differs in shape
from that of the brown partridge, and they
are also very thickly fsathered down the

the first one then known was presented 10
Lord Aylmer. In 1914, also they made
their appearance and now again are met

AN EXAMPLE FOR BoYs. After school
at night. George joined some boys who
wese amusing themselves by sliding down
bill on their sleds. George had drawn
Ills sled to the .op OF Che hill. and was ri
diog down again. when one Of the boys. to
tease him. drew hfs sled directly in tho
path. SO that when Georges sled CAME in
contact with IL, lie was thrown off into the
snow George was inclined to be angry at
first, but he soon recolected himself, and
thought III do not get angry now, this
will be triumph. l am sure.
All the boys gethered around and said:
give It to him, George. Give it to him,
l would pay him well for that
NO said George. IF he has don,

wrong too.'
1T is because you dare not fight me,
that you have grown, so wonderfully good
all at once" said the boy who had thrown
him from bis sled. .5.
George felt his split begin TO rise at
This taunt, but he knew that he was in the
right Of il: and he answered calmly:
Il dare refuse to fight, Notwithstanding
your sneers.and leave you to Judge which
fequires the greatest courage
All the boys knew that George wal
fight and had displayed Che best aud most
difficult courage, so they urged him nc
more to fight and even the boy who bad
