THE great want of the age is men-men
who are honest, sound from center to cir
conference, true to the hearts core. Men
who will condemn wrong in friend and
TO-, in themselves us we'll rs in Others.
Men whose conscience are us steady as the
needle to the pole Men who will stand
for the right If the heavens totter and the
earth reels. Men who can tell the truth
and look the world and devil right in the
eye Men that neither brag nor run.
Men that neither flag nor finch. Men
who have courage without shouting to il.
Men In whom the current of everlasting
life runs still, deep and strong. Men too
large tor sectarian bounds. Men who do
not cry nor cause their voices to be heard
on the streets, but who will not fail nor be
discouraged till judgment be set in the
earth. Men who know their message and
tell 1t. Men who know their places and
I'LL them. Men who mind their own
business. Men who will, not lie. Men
who are not too lazy to work, nor too
proud 10 DO poor. Men who are willing
TO eat what they have paid Tor.

BayThe Boston Globe of late date

gsyThe Boston Globe Of a late date
takes up the fruitful theme of steamboat
disasters, and presents statistics absolutely
frightful. Within the last four years
there has been an average loss Of thirty
lives and five million dollars month by
these disasters alone, Nearly one half of
all those lives lost are on those waters fow-
ing into the gulf Of Mexico, and the acci-
dents are chiefly through fire or explosion,
and are only too often traccable to the
most wicked neglect. The Globe shows
the power legislation has to affect this loss
Of life, and urges more binding laws than
the inefficient ones now governing steam
boat navigation.

it was raised.
This merrirucDt was followed by u
general good feeling, aud a pleasanie er
tea-party never gathered around social

not take the stage the next morning, nor
did Jennie seem at all disposed to cut

unexpected appearance.
When they did go, they went, as they
came, together.

equalled by his delight OIL looking out
OF the window TO see the two walking

MUFFLING THE THROAT. What is the
best mode of protecting the throat from
colds, where person is very susceptible
to them? The common way of protect
ing the throat is TO bundle and wrap it
up closely, thus overheating and render
ing it tender and sensitive, and more IL
BILE to cold and Inflammation than be-
fore. This practice is all wrong, aud re-
suits in much evil. Especially is this the
case with children, and when in addition
to the mufiiing of the throat the extrem-
tiles are insufiiciently clad, as is often
the case, the best possible conditions are
presented for the production of sore
lhroats, coughs, Group and all sorts of
throat and lung affections. 1t is wrong
20 exclude cold air from the neck and
if it is overheated portion of the time,
when it is exposed some form of disa-
greement of the throat will occur. Tho
rule in regard to clothing the neck
should be to keep it as cool as comfort
will allow,

WhcreOn every beautiful hue

And lips, that kiss seemingly true.

Oh clouds that float sOlemnly by
Oh forest so dreamy and still !
Oh breeze. whose breath is SO chill
As ye bear the dead leaves. with a sigh,
To their graves by the slumbering rill
Oh mountains so ghOstly and grand
Oh waves that come foaming to land
Are ye all but beautiful lie

But his task is task for the strong,
And the right that he clutches is wrong,
And the truth that he slrugges 10 speak
Is turned on his lips, to song
Full OF bitterness, cursing and lies,
And Joy, with rose in his beak,
Drops thorn in the heart as he flies.
The smile of child can be bought,
And the words of woman are vain,
And her love, like her bosom, is twain |;
One love for the lover who sought,
And one for the lover she seeks
For the heart of woman is fire,
And burns mt her lips till she speaks,
And she dieth, or hath her desire.
All, bosoms are whittier than snow
We See not the track of the sin
Which is writhed and kissing within
We hear rot the heart beating slow,
For the beautiful cheek is aglOw,
And the eyes are the eyes OF a dove
And drunk with the read wine of love
We stake all, and weep as we win.
Oh sea with thy heartbroken sigh

Oh lights that eternally roam,

Oh yearnirgs for love, and for home!
Oh hopes for that rest underground,
With the silence within, and around
