ONLY A WHILE.

Only little while 10 work,
And q long, long time to rest,
Then drive the cloud from the aching brow
rhe sigh from the troubled breast.
Up, with a strong and hopeful heart;
Up, with SUNNY face;
shoulder your troubles cheerfully;
Bear IL with patient grace.
Only while the feet must bleed,
And the burdened back must bend;
Suffer In silence and silently,
Help others who suffer, friend.
Only n while our tears must drip,
Drop after drop like rain;
And our lips grow white with pain of heart,
ihe very god OF pam.
Only n very little while,
AZ short as the going down
of the setting sun, 10 meekly bear
The cross and the thorny crown.
Only while To watch and pray,
And long, long time To praise:
Our God, the Father, knowsth best,
Then question not His ways.
only little while To SOW,
And long, long time To reap; -
Let's SOW In inith with an open hand,
And tares from the good seed keep.
Only little time TO lose,
All Eternity to find,
The jewels death has robbed MS of,
The friends we VIII leave behind.
Only while 10 trim our lamps
Ere the Bridegroom pasSeth by;
Then NIL them well with the oil of Love,
Let the flame rise pure ana nigh.
Only while--what matters IL
If our life he short or long:
II we only sing'a few short notes
Or the whole OF the changing song?
The missing notes viii all be found,
And the song he wholly sung,
IN heaven where Gods own hand VIII tune
The harps he has unstruug.

A Dumb Dialogue.

1t wrenches one badly to step on
the wrong stair, but few can help
laughing at the awkward stride he
makes. 1t is equally funny to see
man meet the wrong customer"
and 60 to talking and gesticulating
at him as il he were sOmbOdy else.
Jones went out to the deaf and
dumb asylum the other day to in
spect the institution. Upon entering
he encountered man, evidently an
inmate, and he at once endeavOred
to explain to the man by making
signs upon his fingers that he wanted
to look through the place.
The man also made signs which
Jones could not comprehend. Then
Jones made other and more elaborate
motions, which set the man at work
with greater violence, and for the
next ten minutes they stood in the
hall gesticulating and twisting their
fingers without either being able to
comprehend what the other meant.
Finally Jones became angry, and in
an outburst of wrath exclaimed:
ooh, get out, you idiot! Pm tired
of bothering with you ~
Thereupon the man said "That's
just whatI was going to say about
YOU"
ooh, you can speak, can you ?
Then why didn't you do so, and not
keep me standing here mOtiOning to
you? / thought you were deaf and
dumb"
"And / thought you were," said
the man.
''I came here to inspect the asy-
lum," said Jones, 'and took you
for a patient. :,
"That's what came here for, and
I thought you were an attendant"
said the man.
Here Jones and the man shook
hands and hunted up genuine at
tendant, and went away happy.
After this Jones will always use his
tongue, no matter where he is

1t is mistake to try to make pre-
mature men out of boys, for 1t Is not
natural for them to be so staid, reserv-
ed, nor always well-mannered, and
the discipline that makes them so be-
fore their time will probably distort
or cripplesome of their finest qualities.
The roots of young tree must have
room to spread, and If they are mex
orably crammed into a hole big
enough for only half of them, some are
surely to be hurt, and the tree
prematurely damaged. As for educa-
ton, it must always be remembered
that what boy learns from books Is
but small portion Of his education.
That which he gathers from his
surroundings and from his home,
pleasant or repulsive, from his asso-
Citations, from nature, from every
thing he sees and hears, goes, equally
to form his mind and character.

He had heard from the lips of that

He had heard from the lips of that
desOlate mother, ere she had gone to
sleep beside her darling, how patient
and holy Alice had grown; how she
passed away calmly in her saint-like
beanty leaving messages that fond,
yearning heart could only dictate.
Down in his heart, deeper than ary
other earthly thing, had he lain them;
cherishing their beauty and green
ness. Many time had the spirit
form of sweet Alice risen before his
eyes, in all the beauty of that far-off
land he saw but SO dimly, and he
knew when the thing we call life had
merged into immortality, he should
meet her again.
Years afterward, they laid Ben Bolt
to sleep by the side of "sweet Alice"
