probation oflive beauty, when about to
set off on electioneering tour recently
said to his wife, who was to accompany
him for prudential reasons:
"My dear, inasmuch as this election

plan for me to kiss number of the
handsomest girls in every place where

some girls, / will kiss an equal number
of the handsomest young men,"

A distinguished physician, who died

years | have practiced my profession
in this city, twenty thousand children
have been carried to the cemeteries, a
sacrifice to the absurd custom of ex-
posing their arms naked"
| have often thought if a mother
were anxious to show the soft white
skin Of her baby, and would cut out a
round hole in the little things dress,
just over the heart, and then carry it
about for observation by the company,
it would do very little harm. But to
expose the baby's arms, members so far
removed from the heart and with such
feeble circulation at best, is a most per-
nicions practice.
Put the bulk Of thermometer in a
baby's mouth ; the mercury rises to SO
degrees. Now carry the same bulk to
its little hand; if the arm be bare, and
the evening cool, the mercury will sink
40 degrees. Of course all the blood
which flows through these arms and
hands must fall from 90 to 40 degrees
below the temperature of the heart.
Need / say that when these cold eur
rents of blood flow back into the chest,
the child's general validity must be
more or less compromised? And
need l add that we ought not to
be surprised at it's frequently recurring
affections of the lungs, throat, and
stomach ?

GAZING FOR HER" Col. Dick Nash
tells rich story about "axing for her. "
in his earlier days, he was deeply smit-
ten with the daughter of a wealthy old
skinfiint residing in Alabama. The
Colonel, self:conident of success, ar
rayed himself in his best suit, and pro-
ceeded to call on the "parient," for the
purpose of obtaining his consent to the
consummation he devoutly wished.
Matters had all gone on smoothly.
Col. Nash had every ground to hope
for success. Finally convenient sea-
son arrived for him to approach the old
'un. Says the Colonel:
esquire, my business to-day, is to ask
for your daughters hand"
cit is, is it! What! you marry my
gal Look a-here young man, leave
my premises instanter, and if you ever
set foot here again, III make my mig
gers skin you. Mary my daughter, in
deed! You"
The Colonel had left. He saw that
the old gentleman was angry. After
getting aft to a safe place, he thought
be would turn and take last fond look
at the home of his lost idol-when he
spied the old man busy, with spade in
hand, shoveling up his tracks from the
yard and throwing them over the fence!

Benjamin F. Taylor, of the Chicago
Journal, relates thus eloquently and
feelingly upon the death of child
1t went in the morning. bright
and radiant morning-many went yes
terday, more to-day, and there are dews
to be shed for the departures of to-mor:
row: And can it be wondered that
pleasant summer mornings should be-
guile them into going? Is it marvel
that they do not wait for the burden
and noon, but follow the lark and hear
her song over the rim of the rainbow
That those words SO beautiful, they
should make so true; and joy cometh
in the morning?'"
Going in the morning! a glorious
morning-when the sky is all beauty.
and the world is all bliss; ere the dews
have gone to heaven, or the stars have
gone to God; when the birds are sing
ing, and the cool winds are blowing,
and the flowers are out that will be
shut at noon, and the clouds that are
never rent in rain, and the shadows in
laid with crimson lie away to the west.
We have sometimes seen little cof-
I'm, like casket for jewels, all alone by
itself in huge hearse, melancholy,
with plumes, and gloomy as frown,
and We have thought, not so should we
accompany those little way, who go
in the morning. We have wondered
why they did not take the little coffin
into the carriage with them, and lay it
gently upon their laps, the sleeper
there lulled to slumber without bosom
or cradle. We have wondered what
there was for tears in such going-iu
the earl y morning from home to home
like fair white doves with downy
wings emerging from neither night and
fiuttering for entrance at the windows
OF heaven. Never has there been a
hand wanting TO take the wanderer in,
and shut out the darkness and the
storm.
Upon these little faces it never SEEM
ed to US that death could place his
great seal; there is no thought of the
charnel-house in those young listeners
to the invitation, VIII 1se acceptance we
are bound not to forbid; there should
be morning songs and not sighs; fresh
flowers and not badges of mourning;
no tears nor clouds, but bright dews
and bright dawnings together.
Fold up the white robe; lay aside
the forgotten toy; smooth the impress
ed pillow, and gently smile as you think
of the white garment of the harp of
gold, and of the fair brow with its dia-
dem of light; smile as you think that
70 years can make that memory old.
An eternal, guileless child, waiting
about the threshold of Par adise for the
coming friend from home.
Here the glad lips would culver with
anguish the bright eurls growing griz-
zled and gray, the young heart weary
and old, but there, changeless as the
stars, and young as the last new morn
ing. The poet tells of green bough
rent by the tempest from the tree, and
swept rudely along on the breast of an
angry river, and mother-bird with
cries Of grief fiuttering beside it, for
her nest and nestlings were there.
All! better to be waited away from
earth, than thus that they should drift
around the world in storm.

~Keep il Before the PeopIe.o

The following noble song was written oy Hor
A. j. Duganne of New York, formerly membt
If the Legislature of that State and poet OF we
earned reputation.
Keep it before the people?
That earth was made for man!
That flowers were strown,
And fruits were grown,
To bless and never to ban.
That sun and rain,
And corn and grain,
Are yours and mine, my brother F!
Free gifts from heaven,
And freely given,
To one as well as another
Keep it before the people!
That man is the image of Godl
His limbs or soul,
Yet may not control
With shackle, or shame, or rod
We may not be sold,
For silver or gold,
Neither you nor l, my brother!
For Freedom was given
Bv God, from heaven,
To one as well as another!
Keep it before the people!
That famine, and crime, and woe,
Forever abide,
Still side by side,
With luxury's dazzling show!
That Lazarus craws,
From Dives halls,
And starves at his gate, my brother!
Yet life was given.
By God, from heaven,
To one as well as anotheri
Keep it before the people
That the poor man claims his need,
The right of soil,
And the right of toll,
From spur aud bride freed:
The right to bear,
And the right to share
With you and me, my brother!
Whatever is given,
By God, from heaven,
To one as well as another.
