THE GOLDEN GATE.


Dim shadows gather thickly round,
And up the misty stair we climb,
The cloudy stair that upward leads,
To whore the golden portals shine,
Round which the knee'iug spirits wait
The opening of the Golden Gate.
And some with eager longing SO,
Still pressing forward, hand in hand,
And some with weary steps and slow,
Look back where their beloved stand
Yet up the misty stairs they climb,
Led on by the angel Time.
"A unseen hands roll back the door,
The light that floods the very air
Is but the shadow from within,
Of the great glory hidden there
And morn and eve, aud noon aud late,
The shadows pass within The Gate.

WEIGHING THE BABY


How many pounds does the baby weigh
Baby whs came bat a month ago.
How many pounds from the crowning curl
To the rosy point of the restless toeg
Grandfather ties the kerchiefs knot,
Tenderly guides the swinging weight,
And carefully over his glasses peers
To read the record 'sonly eight.
Softly the echo goes around:
The father laughs at the tiny girl
The fair young mother sings the words,
While grandmother snooths the golden curl
And STOPPING above the precious thing
Nestles a kiss within a prayer,
Murmuring softly, Little one,
Grandfather did not weigh you fair.
Nobody weighed the baby smile,
Or the love that came with the helpless one
Nobody weighed the threads OF care
From which woman's life is spun.
No index tells the mighty worth
OF little baby's quiet breath
A soft, unceasing metronome,
Patient and faithful until death.
Nobody weighed the baby soul,
For here on earth no weight there be
That could avail God only knows
It's value in eternity.
Only eight pounds to hold a soul,
That seeks no angels silver wing,
But shrines it in this human guisei
Within so fral and small thing
o. mother! laugh your merry note;
Be gay and glad, but don't forget
From baby eyes looks out a soul
That claims home in Eden yet.

EAT Your BRoWN BREAD FIRST. 1t
is plain, but faithful saying, CIT Yo,q
br0lgA tread first; nor is there better rule
for young mans outset in the world.
While you continue single you may live
within as narrow limits as you please; and it
is then you must begin to save in order to
be provided for the more enlarged expenses
of your future family. Besides a plai n
frugal life is then supported most cheerfully:
it is your own choice. and it Is to be justified
on the best and most honest principles in
the world, and you have nobody's pride TO
struggle with, or appetites to master, but
your own. As you advance in life and sue
cess, it will be expected you should give
yourself greater indulgence; and you may
then be allowed to do il both reasonably and
safely.
.-s--.lzl1- 4 -lssS@Lamb' old associates
are now dead. They that lived so long, "
as he says, and fourished SO steadily, are
all crumbled away" The beauty of these
evenings was that every one was placed on
an easy level No.one out-talked the 9th
eTs. No one--not even Coleridge-was per-
mitted to out-talk the rest. No one was al
lowed to hector another nor to bring his
own grievances too prominently forward so
as to disturb the harmony Of the night. Ev-
cry one had a right TO speak and to be
heard and no one was ever trodden or
clamored down as in some large assemblies
until he had proved that he was not entitled
to a hearing, or had abused his privilege. l
never in all my life, heard so much unpre
tending good sense talked, as at Charles
Lambs social parties. Often a piece of
sparkling humor was shot out that illumina-
ted the whole evening. Sometimes there
was a fight Of high and earnest talk that
took one half way towards the stars. Lamb
