We MAY NEVER KNow.-We may
never know of the anguish hidden be-
meath smiling eyes. 1ra ra
We may never know of the weary
hearts beside us, day by day, whose
only prayer is for strength to wait till
God shall say "Well Done" We may
sit down by the same fire side, clasp
hands at the same social band, look
into each others faces-yet none can
see the heart; and who may tell of the
strivings after good and the many sad
failures-the soul sick, pining for a
Fathers hand to lead beside still waters
of peace and rest,
All! never till we soar beyond the
stars, and all the tears are wiped from
our eyes, shall we understand that in
scrutable mystery, the human heart.
All! despair not when life seems hard
and dreary; for by-and-by the shadows
will fall apart-the letters that bind us
be dissevered-the burden be removed
the tired hands be folded, and sleep
with her healing wings shall hover over
us, and rest be won.
The flowers of spring shall blossom
over the restless heart. The birds Of
summer warble plaintive lay, the
stars smile down in pale calm beauty,
on thousands of aching hearts when
yours is at rest forever-on thousands
of throbbing brains when yours no
longer is busy--on thousands ofweary
feet when yours have completed their
journey
Thank God for the rest of the quiet
grave. Thank God for the home be-
yond it; and be sure t'when We awake
in his likeness ye shall be satisfied

The parting words are sadly said,
And now between our hearts must flow
(Our hearts that faithfully are wed)
For weary months the cruel river;
Not the placid Gandalsuiver.
Flowing through sunny SDin.
And bearing toward the nam.
Now and then an ancient ship,
Laden with tropic merchandise,
To please the eyes,
And charm the lip.
Waited BY spicy gales from the west,
Such as blow from "Araby, the blest"
The boat that bears me from the shore,
Holds within her giant frame,
Z The solid products of to-day,
Csrboa aHd Iron bear the sway,
Instead of masts, she proudly lifts.
Ponde rous stacks Of soOty iron,
Never helplessly she drifts,
For wind and weather
Are servants, and whether
"The sky is bright, and the breeze is fair"
All we know, and all we care,
whether the boilers are full of water
Whether the men at the engines and wheel,
Are men of caution, as well as zeal.
For within her the elements of slaughter
Heave, and struggle, and hiss, but in vain,
And ever teaching us this refrain.
"Matter is ruled by mind"
Faith and reason combined,
Revealthe immutable laws of nature,
Or with diviner culture,
And in less deistical sense,
Unfold the workings of Providence.

A MAN OF NEEvE.-A Washington
letter-writer remarks of Mr.. Greeley
that "the control he has of his counten-
anee is nearer what is related of Talley-
rand than any man we wot oft being
said of the latter that if any man were
to kick him behind, aman in front could
not tell from the expression of bis face
that anything unusual was occurring"
This reminds correspondent of an ;n-
eident that occurred in Omaha: A
gentleman who had received an insult
ing missive determined to resent it
promptly. Next day, thinking he saw
his man ahead, he hastily overlook him,
and administered several pedal saluta-
tons. The kickee remained passive,
the kicker went round in front to see
the effect, and discovered to his regret
that he had kicked the wrong man. He
apologized, and was answered: '-a1sa.
%Don't mention it. From the sfre-
quency of such little episodes in my
experience 1 was sensible of your de-
menstration, but was not aware you had
made any mistake, ,, '',,sls ~.
Ofwhich little M--,rof the Omaha
Herald admiringly remarked, "Oh,
hasn't he got the nsrve. ."--Draacer, Rar-

and then to bark at her in, an impatient
Fay. asif trying to urge her to great
r speed. j aai8.
As soon as he reached the edge of
he ravine, from which the narrow
Foad, or path, went steeply down. he
ooked back for a moment and then
sprung forward, barking in a new, and
more excited way. Mrs. Owen. quick
ened her steps, but the dog WAS soon
far ahead of her, still barking wildly
and eagerly, She heard, him. in few
moments, at the bottom ofthe rayine,
and then suddenly bis barking ceased.
But in a few moments it broke out pasa
Fionately again, and with something
new in its sound, and she was aware
that the dog was returning, He as
soon in sight, and the moment, he saw
Mrs. Owen he stopped and gave Sc
Fies of yelping cries that had in them a
human sound of entreaty, then whirled
about and disappeared down the steep
path, barking all the way, but with a
new and more exhilarating cry.
At the bottom of the rayine, beneath
the bridge, Mrs. Owen found her child
rlinging to a branch of a tree, her body
p the rushing stream. Gyp stood ON
! rock just above her, barking and leap
ing about, and in his dog language tell
ipg her as best he could that help was
near.
Mrs. Owen ran down the bank and
reached her just as her strength was ex-
hausted, and bore her, fainting, to a
place of safety. In few minutes it
would have been too late.
"How did Gyp know, mamma dear?"
asked Lucy, looking with serious eyes
into her mothers face, as they talked
afterward of the dogs strange conduct
in refusing to go with Harry. "How
did he know that / would fall over the
bridget"
"He didn't know" replied Mrs.
Owen.
"He must have known something
l can't understand but it's wonderful,
