WHO WILL CARE 2

Who will care?
When We Law beneath the daises,
Underneath the church ard mold,
Aud the long grass Ger our faces
Lays Its fingers damp and cold -
When We sleep from care and sorrow
And the ills of earthly life
Sleep, to know no sad tomorrow,
With its bitterness of strife
Who will care?
Who will carey
Who will come to weep above US,
Lying, oh SO deathly still,
Underneath the skies OF summer
When all natures pulses thrill,
To new life, glad and tender.
Full of beauty, rich and sweet,
All the world is clad in splendor,
That the years shall e'er repeat;
Who will care?
Who will care?
Who will think of white hands lying
On n still and silent breast,
Never more to know of signing,
Evermore to know of rest?
Who will care? None can tell US;
But if rest and peace betall,
Will it matter if they miss us,
Or they miss us not at all?
Not at all

come. but he was determined, and thought it
best to come with him."
II thank you for it," said Josie. 'Indeed
believe l am rather glad he came. Cousin Myra
was inclined to have wine, and this may be a
lesson to her. Let US so back to them now"
They returned to Fred and Myra, and after
partaking slightly of the refreshments, the gem
tlemen took their leave, Fred somewhat sobered
by the strong coffee Josie gave him.
AS they were going Doctor Hollster took &C.
easion to say to Josie, "Miss Stokes, l have only
this evening begun to get acquainted with you.

tanee Have your permission 2"
Josie knew he was man who would prove
true friend, and she, too, wished to know him
better-sometimes very few words place people
on such very different foeting-so she readily
gave the desired permission.
As soon AS they were gone Myra flung herself
on a sofa and burst into passion of tears.

speak to him again !"
josie knelt beside her and tried to comfort her
"Oh, yes, you will" she said. Il am sorry, hut
Myra, it isn't any more Freds fault than that of
the girls who tempted him to-day"
''Oh, that's true That is true !" sobbed Myra
"And if they had all been like you Josie, this
wouldn't have happened. I'm sure it will be a
lesson to me-
perhaps it is for the best, them" said Josie,
'and it may be lesson to Fred, too, SO you must
not be unforgiving, darling"
am happy to say that days experience was
to Fred, wholesome lesson for the future And
Myra forgave him entirely that before next
New Years day came around she had taken him
under her charge altogether.
Doctor Hollister furthered his acquaintance
with Josie to such very good purpose that few
days since they were participants in a most in
terestihg ceremony which took place in the very
parlor where we first met them, and of which
Miss Josephine Stokes was the center Of attrac.

when it ended.

who read it, the writer will not have written in
vain.

It was the custom in Babylon, five hundred
years before the Christian Era, to have an annu.
al auction of the unmarried ladies. In every
year, on certain day. each district assembled
all its virgins of manageable age. The most
beautiful were put up first, and the man who
paid the highest gained possession of her. The
second in personal charms followed her, and 90
on, 90 that the bidders might crafty themselves
with handsome wives according to the length of
their purses. There may yet remain some
for whom no money was offered, but the provi.
dent Babylonisns managed that. when all the
comely oues are sold, the crier orders the most
deformed one to stand up, and after demanding
who will marry her for u small sum, she is sd-
judged to him who 10 satisfied with the least !;
and in this manner the money raised from the
sale of the handsome serves ~ portion to those

At the battle of Gravelotte the colors OF
the 10Th Prnssian regiment were taken by the
enemy. and were recovered by q young wo.
man of some twenty -four years of age by the
name of Burtic Weiss, who, in a priyate's uni
form was fighting in the regiment "Kron
PrinZ." In doing this she was severely
wounded, which led to the discovery of her
sex She had entered her name on the books
of the regiment as Bernhard Won Weiss, and
had already been decorated with the Iron
Cross by Prince Frederick Charles. 1t seems
that through and by the Connivance of Cap

Infantry she passed an ensign examination
successfully, and had already participated in
several battles-among others that of Speech
rem Heights-and supported herself so well
that she was decorated and transferred to
the Crown Princes regiment. She is said to
be good looking, and to bear herself mod
