her about the "nice dog that came out
of the woods and just looked at them,
and then ran away"
wasn't he a foolish dog to be afraid
OF two good little girls ?" Polly asked.
But mamma looked very sober and
said, "No it wasn't q dog at all !; it was
a bear !"
why, mamma" both said at once,
"why didn't he eat us up?"
And mamma answered.: "Because
God took care of my little girls"
That was a great many years ago, and
little Polly and Esther grew up to be
good women, and used to tell their own
children the story about going after the
COWS and talking to a bear.

PULLING THE MUSTACHE.

This, for lack of better employment
of the right hand, is so very common
with young men who are waiting to say
something to young ladies, that it de-
servest to be treated from a scientific or
cultured side, and made an accomplish
ment. You rarely see a fellow with a
new labial growth, who does not carry
his thumb and finger to his pet, on be-
ing introduced, or on coming into a
situation where expectation and respon-
sibilities are either of them at all un-
certain. 1t is not the gesture or gest-
ures. Before mustaches come in, or
rather came out, the habit was to stick
the hands in the pockets, or fasten
them crossways behind the back. The
mdstache has changed all that. To be
convinced how it is, you need but watch
the movements of young fellow whose
comfort is to have one convenient to his
social necessities.

POISONED BY 4 DEAD BODY.

L.. M. Reese, of Stoughton, Wis,
tells the following strange story: On
Sunday, the 2Sth, he was taking care of
the body of Frank Mott, of Stoughton,
drowned on that day, packing ice
around to preserve it, and while break
ing some ice, he scratched little parti-
Gle of skin, hardly larger than the head
of a pin, from the middle finger of his
right hand. While handling tine body,
which he continued doing for some 48
hours, he happened to touch the place
where the skin was broken ; and, on
Monday, his hand swelled up to twice
its natural size. 1t continued to swell,
and increase in pain, until 1t became
almost uncomfortable. Friday he went
to Madison, and called on DIR. A. J.
Ward, who injected morphine into his
hand. Since he has been doing pretty
well, and the hand has resumed nearer
its natural size and shape. though the
poison is producing eruptions on.differ-
emit parts of the body, and he suffers
much pain. Dr.. w. thinks Mr.. Reese
will recover, but had he delayed the
treatment a short time longer, he COD
not have been saved, as a case Of poi
soning from a dead body is very diff
cult to cure.

victims. I called on her mother and
found her in great grief, as any loving
mother must be when forced to part
with a dear child.
She said, 81 am glad you have come
Ida always loved you SO much," and
she brought out some little articles
which were the earthly property of the
dear departed. The most important of
these was a piece of unfinished sewing,
a 1ufle, I think, and said, as she took it
reverently into her hand, "this was
Ida's last work in this world. She had
not been well for some time, and Oh the
last day that she kept around, she tried
to finish this, but her fevered frame
and weary fingers refused to perform
the task, aud she laid it aside, saying,
Mother, I cannot do this until I feel
better She went to bed and in a very
few days passed away like a frail, beau
tifnl flower, as she was"
The mother wept, and my heart was
sad and sore for her, but 1 felt it best
so. The life of the beautiful child had
been all purity, all sweetness! Why
should she not join the angels ere she
tasted the bitterness which falls to the
lot of every one who liveth out the al
lotted three score and ten?
But my little friends will think Aunt
En- has given them too sad a story, and
so We will have a good, cheerful home

something of little Dot and Trot two

see every day of our lives, almost

How many miles to Baby-Land?
Any one can tell;
Up one flight,
To your right;
Please 10 ring the bell.
What can you see in Baby-Land?
Little folks in white,
Downy heads,
Cradle-beds,
Faces pure anG bright.
What do they do in Bsby-Land?
Dream and wake and play,
Laugh and crow,
Shout and grow;
Jolly times have they.
What do they say in Baby-Land?
Why. the oldest things?

Who is the Queen of Baby-Land?
Mother, kind and sweet;
And her love,
Born above,
Guides the little feet.

Dolly and Dot.

Ralph and his sister Ellen were the
owners of a cat and a canary-bird. The
name of the cat was DOLLY the name of
the canary-bird was Dot.
Now Dolly had learned to love this
little bird. Often, when Dot was let
out of his cage, he would light on
Dolly's head; and Dolly would seem
much pleased to have her little friend
near her. She would play with Dot,
and make believe to strike him, but
never would she harm him. Grand
frolics they would have together, Dolly
and Dot, and on these occasions Ralph
and Ellen would stand by and see them
at play. Dolly was very fond Of hear
ing Dot sing; and a beautiful singer
Dot was. Dolly would often NEW to
be let into the room where her dear
Dot was singing, and then Dolly would
lie down on the rug and seem to enjoy
the song verymuch.
One dey, however, when Ralph and
Ellen had let the little bird out Of the
cage, and he was on the floor, singing
very sweetly, the cat all at once seized
Dot in her mouth, and leaped upon the
table.
go you wicked cat :" cried Ellen, in
great alarm, "let him go, Dolly ! Drop
him this instant"
81 have read in a book that all cats
are treacherous," said Ralph "and
Dolly, it seems, is no exception. You
bad cat, drop that bird !" f-r-
The only reply Dolly made was to
growl and crook her back as if IN n
great rage. Strange to say, all this
time Dot did not seem to be very much
frightened. Dolly held him tenderly
in her mouth and all at once the
children saw what vas the matter. A
strange cat had entered by the open
door, and Dolly, afraid that this strange
cat would harm the bird, had seized it
and sprung with it on the table.
When the children saw the reason Of
Dolly's act, they drove away the strange
cat and shut the door. Then Dolly let
Dot fly away from her mouth and the
little bird lighted on Ralph's finger and
began to sing. As for Ellen, she went
up to the good cat and petted and
praised her so much that Dolly seemed
very happy.
"You dear good Dolly I" said Ellen.
"You did not mean to harm the little
bird, did you? 1t was only to W
him from the strange old cat that you
acted SO.
All that Dolly could say in reply was
to purr louder and louder, as if she
understood what her little mistress was
saying.
Dolly and Dot were better friends
than ever after this adventure, and I
think Dolly would have starved rather
than do any harm to the little bird who
had been her playmate and friend.
This storywas told me for a true one,
and I fully believe it.-Emily Garter,

SAD WILLIAM.

Sad William was q man of mark;
For miles and miles around
Each worthy dog at him did bark
He ne'er was sober found
Though dark. his brow was hung with gloom;
Deep wisdom lit his eyes;
kind Of royal purple bloom
Did on his face arise.
His voice was thick with VISIONS speech,
And from his lips did roll
Long cautions loud dear youth to teach,
To shun thelsinful bowl.
And as he spake his tears would dow,
He'd mournful stop aud think;
Then, shaking his head, he'd 60
And take another drink.
Some tender friends of this sad man,
By Christian love inclined,
Did 'mong themselves q story plan
To work upon his mind.
With awful looks they told in fright
That one who drank like sin,
And, like him, went to bed each night
Exhaling clouds of gin,
Had sought to blow the candle out,
When, 10 his breath took fire,
And straight he died and left no doubt
That drink had lit his pyre.
sob, William, think Of this dread fate"
To him these friends did say,
"Ands stop before 1t is too late;
sSx.oh, William, do, we pray"
uUESsl6iam sat him down to mourn,
They left him in his fear;
And, in the morrow's early dawn,
Said he, as they drew near:
give thought, with many tears and true,
OF all you said last night,
And now /, solemn, promise you
I'll ne'er blow ont q light !"
