DARE TO DO RIGHT,
My boy, to day you are starting
BY MINNIE MYRTLE.

My boy, to day you are starting
On the perilous journey of life;
You'll meet with a thousand temptations
The world with danger is rife
And if the long journey in safety you'd
r make,
With an honor unsullied and bright,
At all times, in all places, my boy,
You nobly must dare to do right
The gambling hells, by their glitter and
~ glare, -.H
You to enter, my boy, may entice.
And the soft, sweet voice of a comrade
May tempt and allure you to vice -
But If you'd preserve your conscience and
.f heart ---rt
Free from sins cankerous blight, @
Ne'er gaze at the one-bid the other de
part .... . .-..T b..
And bravely dare to do right.
The attainment of wealth may induce you
From honesty's pathway to swerve
And the bribes of the wicked may tempt
you
The cause of injustice to serve
But if you'd be true to your manhood,
Resist the temptation with might,
And at all times, in all places, my boy,
CourageOusly dare to do right
The great ones of earth may desire you =
At their dark, wicked deeds to connive,
And if you refuse they may threaten you
From place and position to drive;
But if you'd be true to your God and your
self,
Like a soldier prepared for the fight,
Cody and calmly confront them,
And fearlessly dare to do right
Throughout the long journey, my boy,
Keep these words for a motto and guide,
Nor suffer the veil of delusion
Them e'er from your vision to hide;
Thro' life's rugged, steep pathway
Tread bravely and steadily on,
Nor turn to the left nor the right,
And at all times, in all places, my boy,
Be honest and manly, and dare to do
right.

4 BAD BOY.-They say that the chief
astronomer at the Washington Observa-
tory was dreadfully sold few days ago.
\ wicked boy, whose Sunday-school eXpe-
rience seems only to have made him more
depraved, caught a FREELY and stuck it,
with the aid of some mucilage, in the Gen.
tire of the largest lens in the telescope.
That night, when the astronomer went to
work, he perceived a blaze of light ap-
parenily in the heavens, and what amazed
him more was that it would give a couple
of spurts and then die out, only TO burst
forth again in a second or two. He eN-
amined it carefully for 4 few moments, aud
then began to do sums to discover where
in the heavens that extraordinary star was
placed. He thought he found the locality,
and the next morning he telegraphed AL
over the universe that he had discovered
new and remarkable star of the third mag
nitude of Orion. In day or two ali the
astronomers in Europe and America were
studying Orion, and they gazed ut IL ior
hours until they were mad, and then tiiey
began to telegraph to the man IN W ASH
ingtnu to know what he meant ne us
c5yerer took another look ana iouilu thdt
fhe new star had moved about eighteen
billion miles in twent tf-tcur hours, and
mon examining it closely he was alarmed
to perceive that it had legs When he
went on the dome the next morning, to
polish mp the glass, be found the lightning
bug. People down at Alexandria, seven
miles distant, heard part of the swearing,
and they say lac infused into is much
sincerity and vigorous euor-
gy. The bills for telegraphic dispatches
to twenty-six hundred dollars,
and now the astronomer wants to find that
boy He wishes to consult with him about
something. -NaE Adeter.

An INDIANS REVENGE.
BY RALPH RINGWOOD.

Where the Kentucky r1ver cuts its
way through the mountains, having
upon either hand, bold, rugged cliffs
that lift their SUBMITS 500 and 1000
feet, as the case may be, above the
stream, there lived in early times
settler by the name of Rufus Bronson,
who, with his wife and child, charm
ing little girl of some eight or nine
wears of age, occupied the rude cabin
at the base of the precipice, little
back from the river.
Although greatly exposed to dan
ger, the Indians at that time being
very plentiful throughout the region
-he managed to live quietly for sew
eral years.
The Indians frequently visited the
rude home of the hunter, and being
always welcomed and provided with
such food as might be in the larder,
they maintained a friendly attitude.
Especially were they fond of the
child, Maggie, and more than one
fierce warrior had been seen sitting on
the grass in front Of the cabin, listen
ing to the childish prattle of the little
one, or else engaged in making it some
toy or plaything from willow twigs or
plant bark
In this manner several years had
to feel as secure as though he was
within the walls of frontier fort.
One evening, Bronson and his wife
were seated near the doorway. when
suddenly a shadow fell across the
threshold, and the next moment, a tall
savage, whose reeling step and blood
shot eyes told that he was intoxicated,
and staggering up to the log steps
threw himself upon them.
His first demand was for fire-water,
which of course was refused on the
plea that there was none in the house.
The Indian became cross and ugly,
swearing with terrible oaths that if
the liquor was not produced he would
murder the whole household. BrOn-
son was brave, determined man, and
although he dreaded the necessity, yet
he saw that he would be compelled to
take prompt steps to prevent the saw
AGE from executing his threat.
Waiting until the warrior had made
a demonstration, which he soon did
by attempting to draw his tomahawk,
Bronson sprung upon him and knocked
him down with blow of his fist, and
then quietly disarmed and bound him
where he lay, after few moments of
furious rawlings and futile efforts to
free himself, the savage rolled over
and sunk into a drunken slumber.
He did not awake until the next
morning, but before he did so the set
tier had quietly removed his bonds
and restored the weapons, which he
laid by the sleeper's side.
The savage, on awaking, rose slow
Iy to his feet, felt his wrists as
though the thongs had left a feeling
there, took up his weapons, and with
out speaking a word, left and disap-
peared in the timber near by.
"What think you of that ?'' asked
the wife, turning to her husband with
a scared look.
sPshaw Don't trouble your head
about the drunken brute" answered
the settler, lightly, but as he turned
away and stepped into the yard he
muttered, Like it F.? Well, not much
The fellow must be watched. | was

membered, but that lump where my
