would not need the renovation. With an

hard work may be saved, however. by remov.

and examining tie edges. If there are any
moths they must be brushed off and burned:
and to efectually destroy the life of all de-
pooits the edges of the carpet must be

AN ATHEISTS FUNERAL.-Under

AN ATHEISTS FUNERAL.-Under
the title of ''An Atheists Funeral, !"
The London Sun publishes an ac-
count of the burial of Mr. Austin
Holyoake, who died in the full faith
Of nagation, and passed his last hours
in drawing up an assertion Of his con-
tinued disbelief in the existence of
God. It is an astonisbingly calm
and sturdy statement, and referring
to his own terrible sufferings and the
tendency of most skeptics to renounce
their unbelief as the approach Of
death he says, ''they who, under
pain, say they see the error of theil
previous belief, bad never thought
out the problem for themselves. :"
Funeral orations were pronounced
over his grave by Messrs. Watts and
Bradlaugh. Both shrank instinct
lively from the assertion OF their own
gloomy beliefs, and could not, over
the grave Of their friend, give utter
ance to their conviction that he was
nothing but dust. Even on his tomb
stone there was an inscription under
which the most devoted Christian
might rest, and before which his low
ing friends might kneel in joyful
trust: SIN MemOriam. Gone before"

respects their own structures. The elements
OF which plants are formed have all been

consist from the ore existing parts of plants.

The Over-Gift.

Love hath his hours and seasons.
And why need one complain:
With manifold fair reasons,
Sweet kisses and keen treasons.
He mingles JOY and pain:
So why need one complain;
We found young love a-crying,
And wanner than white death?
We caught him up half dying,
And, in our fore-arms lying,
We fed him on our breath,
And kissed him out of death;
We Chafed his body's pallor
To nimble white and red;
We cleansed his raiment's squalor;
Our hot lips woke blood's valor,
From chilly foot to head,
In swift pierce heats of red.
We nursed him On lip honey,
And housed him In our breasts;
Through lowering days and sunny
He paid us in loves money,
And took his happy rests
In our unre resting breasts.
But when his strength waxed greater
He pinned for ripper fare;
His eyes got fierce; and later
He grew a youngling satyr.
In all his eager air,
From overmuCh sweet fare.
He spoiled our springing garden,
Gifts green growing fruit;
Repulsed tie weeping warden,
Despised our waiting pardon,
And with rude hand and foot
Destroyed our tneder fruit.
Rich wines and fiery spices,
Gold honey from the hive,
The melon lush cold slices
Whatever most ,entices,
Our eager hands did give
and his hot hands receive,
But all our ready giving
Our need cut short one day
Our best last gift receiving,
He spread his young wlngs, grieving,
And then flew quite away,
Nor came back any day.
Time kinder is thai cruel,
Ard we can not complain,
Loves torch's scaniy fuel
Burned dead without renewal
Brings us deserved pain,
But how can we complain?
