ssIF WE KNEW -

If we knew the woe and heartache
Waiting for us down the road,
If our lips could taste the wormwood,
II our backs could feel the load;
Would we waste to-day in Wishing
For time that ne'er can be;
Would we wait in such impatience
For our ships to como from sea?
If we knew the baby fingers
Pressed against the window pane,
Would be stiff and cold Tomorrow
Never trouble us again:
Would the bright eyes of our darling
Catch the frOwn upon our brow?
Would the print of rosy fingers
Fex us slen as they do now?
All. those little ice-cold fingers,
How they point our memories back
To the hasty words and actions
Strewn along our backward trackl
How those little hand reminds us,
AS in snowy grace they lie,
Not to scatter thOrns-but roses
For our reaping by-and-by!
Strange we never prize the music
Til the sweet voiced bird has flown;
Strange that we should slight the violets
Till the lovely flowers are gone;
Strange that summer skies and sunshine
Never seem onc-half so fair
AS when Winters snowy piniOnS
Shake their white down in the air!
Lips from which the seal of silence
None but God can roll away,
Never blossoms in such beauty
As adorns the mouth to-day;
And sweet words that freight our memory
With their beautiful perfume,
Come to us in sweeter scents
Through the portals of the tomb.
Let us gather up the sunbeams,
Lying all along the path;
Let us keep the wheat and roses,
Casting out the thorns and chaff;
Let MS find the sweetest comfort
In the blessings of to-day:
With patent hand removing
All the briarS from our Way

PARAGRAPH VS.. ARTICLE. - The 81.

PARAGRAPH VS.. ARTICLE. - The st.
Lonis Democrat calls attention to the
notable and desirable chance in Amer
lean journalism, being the substitution
of the paragraph" for the article"
on the editorial page. Commenting on
the change it says: SEA few years ago
nothing less than a column in length
was considered worthy of the pen of an
able editor, and the reader had to face
about three such tnstaIlments every
morning, or else remain in ignorance
of what the paper had to say for itself.
Now oil the leading journals of the
country devote more than half their ed
itcrial space to paragraphing. It is
much more difficult to write o good
paragraph than an average article
just as much more difficult to make O
good proverb than to preach an average
sermon. The late James Gordon Ben
nett had good appreciation of the mat
ter, when, in response to an inquiry as
to what he paid for editorial matter, he
said, 81 pay at the rate Of fifty dollars
for q quarter of column, twenty-five
dollars for half column, and ten dol
lars for whole column Examiner.

81 To clean paper-hangings, the
following is very good method: Cut
into eight headquarters stale loaf of
bread and with one of these pieces, af-
ter having blown off all the dust from
the paper to be cleaned, by means of a
good pair of bellows, begin at the top of
the rooms, holding the crust in the
hand, and wipe lightly downward with
the crumb, about half yard at each
stroke, till the upper part of the hang
ing is completely cleaned ali around;
then go round again with light sweep
ing stroke downward, always commen-
cling each successive stroke little high
er than the upper stroke had extended,
till the bottom be finished. This oper-
alton, if carefully performed, will fre-
quently make old paper look almos-
equal to new. Great caution must be
used, not by any means to rub the pa
per hard, nor to attempt cleaning it
across or horizontally. The dirty part
of the bread must be cut away each
time, and the pieces renewed as soon
as at all necessary.

20 The new British Merchant

GO The new British Merchants
Shipping Act provides that in collis-
ion between two vessels, it shall be the
duty of the master, orperson in charge
of each vessel, in SO far as he can do so
without danger to his own vessel, crew
and passengers, to stay by the other
until he has ascertained that she has no
need of further assistance, and to rem
der to the other vessel, her master, crew
and passengers, if any, such assistance
as may be practicable, and rs may be
necessary in order to save them from
any danger caused by the collision.
A failure to comply with this feature of
the act subjectsa British master to can
cel.nent OF suspension of his certificate.
This is most excellent feature of
marine law, and it should be engrafted
into the code of all commercial nations.

Let the person whose name you
wish to know inform you in which of
the upright columns the first letters of
his name is contained. If it be found
but in one column, it is the top letter;
if it occurs in more than one column, it
is found by adding the alphabetical
number of the top letters of these col
umns, and the sum will be the num-
ber of the letter sought. By taking one
letter at time in this way, the whole
name may be ascertained. For exam
pie, take the word Jane. is found in
the columns commencing with B and
Ii, which are the second and eighth let
ters down the alphabet; the sum is ten,
and the tenth letter down the alphabet
is j, the letter sought. The next let
ter, A, appears in but one column,
where it stands at the top N is seen
in the columns headed B, d and H;
these are the second, fourth and eighth
letters of the alphabet, which added
gives the fourteenth, or N, and SO on.
The use of this table will excite no lit
tie curiosity among those unacquainted
