THE GIFT CAB.
BIT MABEL TRBvoR.


There's wonderous gift Of power untold.
More potent than wit, moro potent than gold,
Whose powers exceed the magic spell
Of the potent gifts, which the stories tell
Were given by FAIRIES in days Of old,
In the far off, beautiful land Of gold
'Tis given to mortals by little Queen NAB,
And tits known on earth as the Gift of Cab.
Far back in the past when Earth was young,
And brains were rated above the tongue.
When no SD rit of progress marked the age.
A nd to rise in the world wse not the rage,
This gift was unknown to the sons Of men,
Than tinkling cymbal or sounding brass.
And all unknown was the world of gas"
Twas kept for the moderns-this wonderful
To shine. although minus q brain or heart;
To make the old stand back for the young,
Give the highest place to the longest tongue;
Put learning and wisdom far back In the dark |,
Bid the lion be dumb while the young dogs
bark;
For honor and place let the greatest fool grab,
If he only can flourish the Gift of Cab.
II you wish to shine in the halls of state,
Whv, the Gift of G alb will make you great;
For law. truth or.sense take no manner or pains,
Twill clothe your brass, both furnished and old
With the image, and mure than the ring of
gold;
'Tis a lever to move this world so grand
Could it only find place to stand,
'Tis mine of wealth, a weapon Of might,
A two-edged sword in the worlds fierce fight;
Would you push your way TO social grader
Secure 1.-THE Gift, and your fortune is made;
Get a smattering sense Of thing or tvs"
Or even less-yOu can make it dOt
The trumps and the hOnors. and ALL you can
grab
By strength of this powerful Gift Of Cab.
Put brains aside, they are not in your line,
If by force of CAB you are bound to shine,
For the head that is burdened with weight of
thought,
And the wealth of learning. dearly bought,
Is not like a brassf bell, when rung,
Whose merits ,rsist in the power of tongue;
Don't try in the fountain of knowledge to dab,
But ''go it blind" on the strength Of Cab.
All hail! all hail to the power of tongue!
1hricc happy its owner, old or young;
The gift, more precious than gems or gold,
Than learning or wit, or tslisman old,
That opens the door Of success to all,
Whose tongue is large, and whose brain is
small;
And long live the queen of all queens-Qucen
Nab,
Who gave to mortals the Gift Of Cab.

Iv i'm his bed. There was no great
variety in Hester's life; but still she
persevered, and at the close of each
year she might have said, II am gain
ing-nearer my end than 1 was q
twelvemonth since;" and the day
came when she lived comfortably, and
allowed herself to rest now and then.
And all this time Paul Brownlow
was in the same city, about his own
business, their paths never for one
moment crossing. lie had not for
gotten Hester-his love for her kept
his heart young and pure, and many
times he drew back his hand from a
selfish act, for he felt those pure eyes
upon him. Life gave him very much
of success. He came from Europe,
and found himself famous for the skill
with which he had managed an intri-
cate law question; but almost every
evening he thought, Life has given
me all but the treasure | valued most
that was not for me-" But God was
very good to these two lovers. One
Christmas-day q friend handed Paul
a little volume, saying, Here Brown
low, is your Christmas present" The
book chanced to be Hester's poems.
Paul read many of them, and liked
well their quiet, tender beauty. 1t
was as if the heart of the writer were
opened to him; he saw how it had
waited. suffered, conquered, too, at the
last: noted its wonderful acquaintance
with nature, lis earnest sympathy with
truth, its loving faith and lnvincible
will. Then he read a descriptive
poem. but stopped at the last line in
perfect amazement. Who wrote this
book? He remembered one such day,
one such scene, in his life, and-Hes-
ter Grahame was very near him. And
that line was certainly an allusion to
himself.
The book was thrown down, and he
went from his room, and hunted up
his friend, and in few words obtained
the information he wanted. He sought
Hester's quiet secluded hOme-mOre
than ever solitary on this Christmas
evening, for out of it she had followed
the dead body of her brother not many
hours before. She sat by her west
window, and as the servant opened
the door Paul saw again the face
which was dearer TO him than aught
else upon earth. She knew him di-
rectly, and held out her hand but
when 1 tell you that she is now Paul
wife, you will not doubt
his right to the kiss which he certain
Iy took. They had been long parted,
these lovers; they had loved more
than most men and women do; and
yet, by Gods grace, they had been
abe to stand alone, to do each their
life-work well; and you can under
stand why, as they sat together, they
spoke no passionate words-why silent
caresses and murmured thanksgivings
were their only signs of betrOthal.
They had nothing to wait for; 80 on
the morrow they were married-and
you know, now, why Paul BrOwnlOw
loves his wife so much-why, when
you turned the leaf down in that vol
lme of Woodstock" he told you, !
You may do it In any other book of
mine, but not in that; for that was |
the first book of his that his wife's
fingers ever touched.
L heard him ask Hester, one day as
hey sat very close to each other, s'if |
she was content; and when she said,
Perfectly content" knew they were
he dearest words he had ever heard.

Destruction of the Germs of Disease

As the result of series of expert
ments on the destruction of low forms
of life by heat, DIR. Grace Calvert de-
monstrates that the germs of disease
will withstand temperature of 300o
Fahrenheit. Exposure to such heat
as this Injuries the fibers Of all kinds of
cloth so seriously that they are unfit for
further use. 1t is therefore evident that
the mere agency of heat cannot be de-
pended upon for the destruction of the
germs or corpuscles attached to the
clothing of persons who have suffered
from any contagious disease.
The necessity for a change i'm opinion
regarding the power of chlorine gas to
accomplish this purpose is urged in
recent report of the New York Board
of Health Oh the disinfection of cloth
ing and rooms that have been exposed
TO contamination by smallpox. In the
report in question car ibolic acid is espe-
cially recommended for the disinfection
of clothing and bedding, and sulphur
Gus acid gas prepared by burning sui
phur for the disinfection OfrOoms. The
latter substance especially seems to
have the power of utterly destroying
the germs of smallpox, while chlorine
frequently fails altogether or only ac-
complishes the object in an imperfect
manner.-Scrt6ner's for May.
