A fac simile of the autograph ol
John Milton, in the album OF
Charles Sumner, was recently
shown to an English shopkeeper in
Chicago by a gentleman, who re-
marked, 'This is an interesting
memento of your immortal coun.
trvman!' The shopkeeper looked
bewildered, but finally exclaimed,
"Yes, / believe he was an English,
man. Such is fame.

A gentleman of Milwaukee was
recently walking along the street,
when as he passed a shabby-look-
ing woman, he heard a baby voice
call "papa!" from beneath her shawl
and then, for the first time noticing
the woman, saw her awkward at
tempt to stop the child's crying.
To his surprise he found the child
to be his own, which had been sto-
len from the nurse, who had left it
alone in its carriage for few min
,utes.

gsmple Of The a}lusss.



Soft falls through the gathering twilight
The rain from the dripping caves
And stirs with tremuious rustic
The dead and the dying leaves;
While star in the midst of the shadows,
hear the sweet voices of bells
Come borne on the wind of the autumn
That ftfully rises and swells.
They call and they answer each other
They answer and mingie sgaih--
As the deep and the sbrill in an anthem
Make harmony still in their strain:
As the voices of sentinels mingle
In mountainous regions of snow.
Till from hilltop TO hilltop chorus
Floats down to the valleys below.
The shadows, the freight of even.
The sound of the rains distant chime.
Come bringing, with rain softly dropping,
Sweet thoughts of shadowy time;
The slumberous sense of seclusion.
From storm and intruders aloof,
We feel when we hear in the midnight
The palter Of rain on the roof.
When the spirit goes forth in Its yearnings
To take all its wanderers home,
Or, sfar in the regions of fancy,
Delights on swift pinions to roam,
1 quietly sit by the fre-hght--
The freight so bright and so warm
For know that those only who love me
Win seek me through shadow and storm
But should they be absent this evening,
Should even the household depart
Deserted, 1 should not be lonely;
There still would be guests in my heart,
The faces Of friends that cherish,
The smiles, and the glance, and the tone'
Will haunt me wherever l wander,
And thus am never alone.
With ho,e who have left far behind them
Theioys and the sorrows of time
Who sing the sweet songs of the angels
In purer and holier cline!
Then darby, o evening of autumn,
Your rain and your shadows may fall;
Nv loved and my lost ones you bring me
nv heart holds feast with them all.

"Mrs. Clark" / retorted.
''You don't think! How can
you say such thing?" And a
puzzled expression rested or my
wife's face, that in spite of all my
powers of resistance, forced me to
laugh aloud.
"Oh, | remember now," she said;
Ralph said some thing like that

"Then, Mrs. Clark, you deny

work aside suddenly, and arose.

he called q 10y to account for such
disturbance he would plead that It
was unintentional.--''He forgot all n

frequent that the! master threatened q
severe punishment to the next offender.
The ncxt day, when the room was un-

broke the stiffness. Everyone asserted
that IL was certain hoy who had the
reputation ofa mischief maker and a
liar. He was called up, and with q
somewhat stubborn lock, held out his
