GOD LEADING Us.

You have read in Latin story
How Eneaa once was led
From the walls Of Troja, captured,
Captured with Its brsveEt dead.
How be sailed DER unknown uster,,
or BY tempests wildly toEs'd,
Till at length those fields he reaches,
By the yellow Tfber crois'd-
Twas the gods that led him thIther.
So the Heather fable runs,
BY their will he was the father
OF those sturdy Roman sons.
By his seed was Rome founded,
Rome 70 great IN after days;
How Its story thrills the hearts blood,
Cited In the poets lays ! ...
So our Country God Is leading,
From the places Of the past,
Out upon sea of triAls,
To haven sure at last.
'TIs our Country now IA bleeding.
White-winged Peace lies In the dust
Bitter troubles now surround Us,
But in God Ii still our trust.
In our struggle Troy is 'lay'ry,
'Tis at length compelled TO yield;
After many years Of power,
See-its doom at last IL sealed.
From this Troy our God is leading,
Patient let us be as they:
Soon shall rise our Rome Of Freedom
Soon shall dawn u brighter day.

Tim 9tOops.

Tim, to set at naught the authority
of my wife. You know her way
cool, quiet, but determined as ever
grew. Just after we were married,
and all was nice and eozy, she got
into the habit of doing all the churn.
ing. She finished breakfast rather
before me one morning, and slipped
away from the table, she filled the
churn, and set it down where I
couldn't help seeing what was want
ed. So I took hold readily enough
and churned till the butter came.
She didn't thank me, but looked so
nice and sweet about it that felt
well paid.
Well, when the next churning
came along, she did the same thing.
and I followed suit and fetched the
butter. Again and again I did the
same thing, and l was regularly set
for it every time, not. word said,
you know, of course. Well, by and
BY, this began to be rather irksome;
I wanted her just to ask me, but she
never did, and I wouldn't say any
thing to save my life. So on we
went. At last made a resolve that
I would not churn another time I'm.
less she asked me. Churning day
came, and when my breakfast-Ihe
always got nice. breakfasts-when
that was swallowed, there stood the
churn. l got up, and standing for a
few minutes just to give her chance
put on my hat and walked out of
doors. 1 stopped in the yard to give
her time to call me, but never word
said she, and so with palpitating
heart / moved on. l went down
town, and my foot was as restless as
Noah's dove. l felt as if ! had done
a wrong. l did not feel exactly how
but there was an indescribable
sensation of guilt resting on me.
1t seemed as if dinner time would
never come, and as for going homo
one minute before dinner time, I
would as soon have cut my ears off.
So I went fretting and moping about
till the dinner hour came. Home I
went feeling very much as criminal
must when the jury is out having in
their hands his destiny-life rdeath.
couldn't make up my mind how
she would meet me, but 1 expected
some kind of storm. Will you be-
lieve me-she even greeted me with
smile-never had better dinner
than on that day; but there stood
the churn just where I left it. Not
word was said. Ifelt confounded.
ly cut, and every mouthful Of that
dinner felt as if it would choke me.
She didn't pay any regard to it, how
ever, but went on just the same as if
nothing happened. Before dinner
was over, had again resolved, and
marched to the churn, and went at it,
in the old way. Splash, dip, rattle
Il kept it up. As if in spite, the
butter never seemed 30 long in COM
ing; 1 supposed the cream standing
30 long had got warm, and so re-
doubled my efforts.
Obstinate matter; the afternoon
wore off while I was churning; I
paused at last from real exhaustion,
when she spoke for the first time.
Come, Tom, my dear, you have
ratified that buttermilk long enough.
Is it for fun you are doing it," I
knew how it was in a fash. She
had brought the butter in the fore
noon. and had left the buttermilk in
for me to exercise with ! I never
set up for myself in household mat.
