The old Bible became hers after her
fathers death, and in it were written
the names of her seven children. 1t is
still, in very good condition, in the pos
session of some of her descendants.
Jeanne never forgot that dreaded night
when she carried the old Bible through
the deep waters, and when she was dying
she seemed to be dreaming of it, and
said
II am in the deep river-in the deep
river, but I'll hold up the dear old Bible!
There take the book' and she ceased
to breathe.

How TO WRITE SUCCESSFUL News
PAPER ARTICLE.-In paper on "Ethics
for Occasional Contributors" published
in the Bound Table, the author says {:
"The great secret of successful newspa-
per writing consists largely in the mas
terry of the difficult arts of beginning
and leaving off. To excel, you must write
an article as you take plunge bath in
winter-jump in, all over instantly, and
out again, and off, without wasting SEN
tence or a SYLLABLE"

Grand mas.

Thinking of the dear old ladies l have
known many sweet pictures of "beauti-
full age" rise before me; the eye, faded
to be sure, but soft, sometimes keen in
expression, and oh, so overlooking with
an exceeding wealth of love and holy
charity The clear, fair skin, the frosted
hair, banded away under the snowy cap,
the quiet drab, or glossy black dress,
sometimes closed to the throat, sometimes
gracefully folded over kerchief of spot
less lace;-the erect figure, the gentle
tread of feet "long used to ministering
to others needs" aud the voice, how
sweet, speaking only words of kindness;
oh, these ladies of the olden time. how
their memory, like the echoes of de-
parting music, soothes our hours of rest
less dreaming, falling upon weary hearts
like the "benediction which follows after
prayer"
There are many households, whose re-
membranes of trembling hands, raised
in blessing above youthful heads, come
over them after the lapse of years, like
the fragrance of early flowers, of time
when prayers and words of counsel, born
of deep experience and earnest love-
encompassed their daily pathway, shield
ing them from contact with vice,-open-
ing up to them "the beauty of holiness. ,"
And what void was there, when the
cold hands were gently folded over the
pulseless heart-what showers of tears
fell upon the enclosing eye, the placid
brow The armchair by the fre-side is
vacant nowl Oh, how desolate the little
children feel;-how each one goes about
silently, reverently touching the unfn
ished mementoes of love and thrift,
crowding the basket that still stands,
alas, now ownerless, by "the cushioned
seat so lately filled by Grand mas state
ly, gracious presence And again and
again the children say over to each other
the verses she had taught them, wonder
ing how they shall live without her,
and they repeat the hymns which came
so sweetly from her lips.
Sweet fields beyond the swelling food.
Yes, dear Grand ma was safely resting
there, and, God helping them, they too
would trust the same Saviour, would
clean upon his breast as she had; oh,
these lessons could never pass away from
their grief-stricken hearts
We too had such one, who for many
years was "the angel of peace" in our
dwelling. What sweet, pure face was
hers. How the blue eyes, large, lus-
trous, and overlooking with a gracious
tenderness, trembled with emotion as she
repeated slowly and emphatically, "Be
hold what manner of love the Father
hath bestowed upon us, that we should
be called the sons of God"
Years have flown, and over the grave
of the sainted dead many spring flowers
nave blossomed,-leaves, touched by
"Autumn's bright pencil" have fallen
tenderly, and the SHOWS of many winters,
pure and white. have draped the earthly
resting place of the beloved one,-yet

SCIENTIFIC. MIR. Wigner, an analytical
chemist in England, had been studying
Leviticus, and concluded that the "ashes
of an heifer"-i. e., animal charcoal
and blood poured out upon the ground
4. e., blood and clay all mixed together,
would make an excellent purifier. He
tried his mixture in thirty-six thousand
gallons of sewerage and purified it in
twenty minutes; the residuum was found
to be worth twice the cost of the expert
ment. 1t has always been mystery
how the sacrifcial court of the temple
was kept pure, and Mr.. Wigner's expert
ment may explain the method.

A Cheerful Heart.

IT'S well TO walk with cheerful heart,
Wherever our duties call,
With friendly glance and an open hand,
And gentle word for all.
Since life is thorny and difficult path,
Where toll is the portion of man,
We all should endeavor while passing along
To make it as smooth as we can.

Hopeless Sorrow.

Alas for him who never sees
The stars shine through his cypress-trees!
Who, hopeless, lays his dead away,
Nor looks to see the breaking day
Across the mournful marbles play;
Who hath not learned, IN hours Of faith,
The truth to flesh and sense unknown,
That life is ever lord of death.
And love can never lose its own.
Whittier.

The Quaker's Letter to his Matchmaker

I herewith send thee my pocket, clock,
which greatly standeth in need of thy
friendly correction. The last time he
was at thy friendly school he was no ways
reformed, not even in the least benefited
thereby; for perceive by the index of
his mind that he is liar, and the truth
is not in him; that his motions are wav-
ering and irregular; that his impulses
are sometimes very quick, which betoken
nor an even temper; at other times it
waxeth sluggish, Notwithstanding l fire.
quently urge him, that when he should
beon his duty, as thou knoweth his usual
name denoteth, l find him slumbering
and sleeping-or, as the vanity of hu-
man reason phraseth it, catch him nap
ping. Hence, | am induced to believe
he is not right in the inward man. Ex-
anime him, | beseech thee, thoroughly,
that thou mayest by being well acquaint-
ed with his inward frame and disposition,
draw him from the error of his ways, and
show him the path wherein he should go.
And when thou layest thy correcting
hand upon him, let it be without passion,
lest thou drive him to destruction.
Do thou regulate his motion for the
time to come by the light that ruleth the
day; and let him learn from that uner-
ring guide the true calculation of his
table and education and when thou find
est him converted from the errors of his
ways, and more conformable to the above
mentioned rules, then do thou send him
home, with just bill of charges, drawn
out by the spirit of moderation, and it
shall be sent in the root of evil to thee.
