MARVELLOUS EscAPE.-The Boston
Journal says IA few nights ago q
young woman named Elizabeth Malon-
son had narrow escape from death on
the Boston and Providence Railroad.
She was standing on the fremont cross
ing engaged in conversation with some
friends, when the whistle of an outward
bound gravel train caused her to step
from that track to the inward track, on
which freight train was approaching at
considerable speed. She was caught up
by the cow-catcher of the engine at
tacbed to the freight train, and the FIRE
man seeing her situation went out over
the running board and held her securely
until the train was stopped near the re
pair shops, a distance Of about half a
mile from where the accident occurred.
The woman was found to be uninjhred,
and her fortunate escape from death is
due to the fireman, as she would have
been unable to remain on the cow-catcher
but for his assistance"

side Is a seminary of infinite importance.
1t is important because it is universal,
and because the educataion 1t bestows,
being woven in with the woof of child
hood, gives color and form to the whole
texture of life. There are few who can
receive the honors of college, but all
are graduates of the heart. The learn
ing Of the university may fade from re-
collection its classic lore may moulder
in the hall of memory, but the simple
lessons of home, enamelled upon the
heart Of childhood, defy the rust of
years, and out-live the more mature but
less vivid pictures of after days. SO deep,
so lasting are the impressions of early
life, that you often see a man in the i'm
becility Of age holding fresh in his recol-
lection the events of childhood, while all
the wide space between that and the
present hour is forgotten waste.

WHAT IL known as the Shapiro collec

WHAT is known as the Shapiro collec.
tion of idols, vessels, and pottery with
ancient Phenician Inscriptions on them,
which a Jewish Protestant convert in
Jerusalem sold to the Berlin Museum foi
one thousand pounds, turns out to be q
huge swindle. The expose was affected
by M. Gannau, of the British Palestine
Expedition, who found 0pt that Shapiro,
the Jew, and another person, had adroitly
manufactured the articles Of pottery, in
scribed them with unreadable characters,
and then dipped them in saltpetre to give
them an ancient look. The forgery was
cleverly done and excites no little com.
ment, which is generally at the expense
OF the German arch@ologists who bought
the collection. The Palestine explorers.
both English and American, wifi have
additional reason from this exposure to be
careful how they authenticate every ft,.
ture discovery that they may make.

sermon about Heaven. "Those are my
ideas exactly"
And so enwrapt was he with his
thoughts, as he passed from the church,
he forgot to ask lame old Mrs. Howe to
ride home with him, as was his usual
custom.
"Perhaps it is just as we'll" he thought,
" for she is worldly old woman, and
would probably have drawn my thoughts
away from Heaven"
At the dinner table his son exclaimed,
"Oh, father, l have situation at last. /"
Have you forgotten it is Sunday,
John 2" asked his father, sternly. "Don't
let me hear any more such talk"
John ate his dinner in silence. How

week, Johns heart gave grateful throb,
and he determined anew to acknowledge
God in all his ways. John ate his dinner
in silence, while his father thought about
Heaven.
In the afternoon Mr.. Barnes nephew,
stranger in the place, came over from
his boarding-place opposite, and sat on
the piazza, talking with John.
81 can't allow this, Tom," said Mr..
Barnes, coming to the door with the Bible
in his hand "you must not sit here
breaking the Sabbath. Go back to your
boarding house and read some good
book"
Tom started up angrily, and spent the
afternoon fishing and bathing with an
old colored man, his only other acquaint.
ance in the place, while Deacon Barnes
sat in large rocker on the piazza, with a
handkerchief over his head, and thought
of Heaven.
Presently, his two little granddaugh-
ters came out on the piazza with large
picture-book, and sat down near him.
There was futter of leaves and great
deal of buzzing as the little yellow heads
bent over the book, and finally they
laughed outright.
HChildren, where's your mother ?"
sternly demanded Deacon Barnes, spring.
ing to his feet.
"Up stairs, putting baby to sleep"
they both answered together.
Deacon Barnes strode into the hall.
"Ellen Elem % he shouted; 81 should
think you might keep these children
quiet on the Sabbath. They won't al
low me to think"
Ellen had been awake all night with a
fretful baby. She had hushed him, and
had just fallen asleep, when her fathers
voice aroused her and woke the baby.
Pleaseesend them up stairs" said she,
wearily.
And all that sultry afternoon she
amused the three children, in close
upper room, while her father rocked and
famed himself and thought of Heaven.

In the bound Of mine own inclou,rc
The fowcrs are fair 10 zee;
But the rose In my neighbour garden
Is faircr than al TO me.
So white and slender and stately,
30 gemmed with sparkling dew,
This rose, that blooms for another,
Ii the sweetest ever that grew.
Ny heart 10 its grace and beauty
Goes forth rs TO shrine;
And sigh to Its mystical fragrance
"If 1t were only minei" 4
And yet, II not my neighbor
But I, in fee and thrall,
Held all that marvellous glory
On the other side Of the wall,
might, perhaps, grow weary
OF Its royal pomp and grace,
And love with my love some daisy
With shy, uplifted face.
For since the gates Of Eden
Were shut on Adam and Eve,
The flowers We have are never
80 sweet as the flowers we leave;
And rich within my garden
Though many flower might be,
The rose that bloomed for another
Night seem the best to me.

Those we love truly never die,
Though year by year the sad memorial wreath,
A ring and flowers, types Of life and death,
Are laid upon their graves.
For death the pure Life saves,
And life all pure Is love; and love can reach
From heaven TO earth, and nobler lessons teach
Than those By mortals read.
Well blest Is he that has dear one dead.

dear communion that win not grow strange:
The anchor Of love IL death.
The blessed sweetness of loving breath

For her who died long since, ah waste not tear:
She Is thine unto the end.
Thank God for one dead FRIEND
With face still radiant with the light Of truth,
Who loves the graybeard as he loved the youth,
Through twenty years Of death.

eNtant. Dr. William Smiths Dictionary
CT the Bible, referring to the observ-
aiice of the day, V '.Tllc distin-

offering of special sacrifices and the
offerings of the first fruits of the wear
as Il thanksgiving for the completion of
the harvest. The day was observed in
a festive manner, rartaking of a more

that of the Passover" The day
Is still rigidly observed i'm
