BELIEVE THE BEsr.-He who thinks
better Of his neighbors than they de-
serve cannot be bad man, for the
standard by which his Judgment Is
formed is the goodness of his own
heart. 1t is the base only who believe
all men base, or in other words, like
themselves. Few, however. are all
evil. Even Nero did good turn to
somebody. fer when Rome was rejoic-
ing over his death some loving hand
covered his grave with flowers. Public
men are seldom or never fairly judged,
at least while living. However pure,
they cannot escape calumny; however
incorrect, they are sure to find
eulogists. History may do them jus
tice; but they rarely get it while alive,
either from friends or foes.

Watching for Pa.

Three little forms in twilight gray,
Scanning the shadows across the way;
Six little eyes, four black and two blue,
Brimful of love and happiness too,
Watching for pa.
May with her placid and thoughtful brow,
Gentle face beaming with smiles just now
Willie, the rouge, SO loving and gay,
Stealing sly kisses from sister May,
Watching for.pa
Nellie, with ringlets of sunny hue,
Costly nestled between the two,
Pressing her check to the window pane,
Wishing the absent one home again
Watching for pa.
0 how they gaze at the passer by!
'He's coming at last" they gaily cry;
Try again, my pets, exclaims mamma,
And Nellie adds: There's the twilight star
Watching for pa.
Jack mods and smiles, as with busy feet
He lights the lamps of their quiet street;
That sweet little group he knows full well,
May, and Willie, and golden haired Nell,
Watching for pa.
Soon joyous shouts from the window-seat,s
And eager patter of childish feet
Gay musical chimes ring through the hall;
A manly voice responds to the call

The Hope OF MAN.-Final success
the joy of his life's ripe harvest-is
the goal Of our human hopes. No
wise or thoughtful man will live mere
ly for to-day. The pilgrim who seeks
home is not content to linger and
loiter for the mere flowers beside his
way. The sower looks onward to
fields white and ready for the sickle.
Wisdom has regard to the grand issue.
The triumph or the pleasure of to-day
is transitory. We want hope that
does not sink with the setting sun.
The true success in life is that which
does not fail the evening of our days,
or leave them to blight our barrenness-
We want that shout of "harvegthome."
that will not die into silence with the
fainting breath, but makes passage of
the grave whispering gallery where
heaven and earth talk together. We
want something that will reach beyond
time-beyond the things Of the pres
ent-something that will take hold on
eternity.
