AN6ME IN THE SAND.


Alone walked the ocean strand,
A pretty shell was in my hand;
] Istooped, and wrote upon the sand
My name, the year and day.
As onward from the spot passed
One lingering look behind I cast
A wave came rolling high and fast
And washed my lines away.
And so methought twill quickly be
With every mark on earth from mel
A wave Of dark oblivion's sea
Will sweep across the place
Where l have trod the sandy shore
Of time, and be to me no more;
OF me, my day, the name bore,
To leave no track or trace.
And yet with Him who counts the sands,
And holds the water in His hands,
know lasting record stands
Inscribed against my name,
Of all this mortal part has wrought,
Of all this thinking soul has thought,
And from these heeting moments caught,
For glory or for shame.

A DIPLOMATIC BOY.

When n Lacrosse street boy is play
ing "hop-scotch" on the walk and his
mother comes TO the door and asks him
to split some wood, he replies that he
will be along in just one minute. At
the end of ten minutes she opens the
door and says:
"Wilyum, want that woodl"
''I'm coming right away" he replies,
and then goes on hopping here and there
on one leg.
Another ten minutes flies away, and
she opens the door and says:
''Wilyum, if you don't get that wood
you know what your father will dol"
''Just ten seconds, he calls back, and
he enters upon a new game.
The next time she calls and says;
Young man, it's almost noon and /
can't cook dinner without that woodl"
81 know it-I'm coming now," he re-
plies, and stands on one foot and holds
long discussion with the johnson boy, as
to whether the game of chop scotch" is
asgood a game as base ball. He has
just started to hop when a boy whisp-
ers:
''Hi, Bill2 there's your old dad"
''Great sneaksl" whispered Bill, and
he goes over the fence like flash, grabs
the ak, and during the next two minutes
he strikes two hundred blows per min
ute. He gets into the house ahead of
his father, and he drops the wood and
says:
Mother, the boys were just sayin'
that / had the handsomest and best and
goodest mother on Lacrosse street, and
I want to kiss youl"-[Detroit Free

"He went in with Hrmilton, and was
present, as has been said, at his alterca-
ton with Roberts. When Hamilton fell
upon the floor, he quietly threw himself
upon the bed, and after waiting until he
thought his victim was soundly asleep,
as well as other persons whom the noise
he had made might have aroused, he
arose, and cropping across the room until
he came in contact with the body of the
drunkard, commenced search for his
pockets. He had just laid his hand up
on the wallet which contained the money
when Hamilton awoke. Then com
menced the struggle which Roberts had
heard.
'"The thought of murder first entered
his mind as he held his struggling vic
tim by the throat. Hamilton was strong
man. The danger was imminent. In
another moment his cries would arouse
all in the house. Perhaps even then the
ear of suspicion had heard his smothered
appeal for help. There was sharp
poniard in his belt. He seized it, and
in moment it struck into his victims
side. Another struggle ensued, another,
and another, each fainter, as blow fol
