THAT NEW WORLD.

How gracious we are to grant to the dead
Those wide, vague fields in the foreign sky,
Reserving the world for ourselves instead |;
For we must live, though others must diel
And what is the world that we keep, pray?
True, it has glimpses of dews and flowers;
Then youth and love are here and away,
Like mated birds-but nothing is ours.
All nothing indeed; but We cling to it all;
1t is nothing 10 hear ones own heart beat;
1t is nothing TO see ones own tears fall;
Yet surely the breath Of our life is sweet.
Yes, the breath our life is so sweet, fear
We we're loath TO give it for all we know
Of that charmed country we hold so dear
Far into whose beauty the breathless go
Yet certain we are, when we see them fade
Out of the pleasant light of the sun,
OF the sands Of gold in the palm leafs shade
And the strange, high jewels all thes'
have won.
You dare not doubt it, o soul of minel
Aud yet, if these vacant eyes could see
One. only one, from that voyage divine,
With something, anything, sure for me
Alb, blow me the scent of one lilly, to tel
That it grew outside ofthe world, at most
All, show me plume to touch, or shell
That whispers of some unearthly coast

A ShawlPin COughed from the
Lungs.

About year ago Miss Annie Mer-
KEEL, aged fourteen years, a daughter of
Mr.. John Merkel, then residing at
Leesport, Penn, while crOcheting, ac-
cidentally swallowed shawl
pin an inch and three-quarters
long, which she had in her mouth.
A physician was sent for, but the pin
could not be recovered. It had lodged
in one Of the lungs, aud eventually
much Inflammation ensued, which
was followed by chronic cough, at
tended with considerable expectora-
ton. On Wednesday night last she
was attacked with a severe coughing
spell, which nearly suffOcated her,
when suddenly hard substance was
elected from her mouth, which fell on
the floor. This was picked up, and
found to be piece of shaWl-pin,
with the head, swallowed a year ago.
Shortly after she was seized with
another coughing spell, and the rest
of the pin was thrown from the lung.
The pin had been divided by corro-

Diphtherla.

Twenty years ago diphtheris, at least by
that name, was almost unknown. Today,
according to the New York Times, it has
nearly assumed the proportions of an cpl
demic in that city and its neighboring
towns. 1t is also prevailing in other parts
of the land. Although its ravages are
chiefly among the young and feeble, it at
tacks adults as well as children. The dis
ease OF the throat is said to differ from all
other forms Of sorethroat previously nown
1t is very malignant and often fatal dis
ease. 1t was first observed and described
by NJ. Bretonneau, of Tours, in 1918. 1t is
characterized by a peculiar Inflammation
Of the mucous membrane of the throat, or
pharynX, accompanied by the production
of a false membrane This is said to make
its appearance in nearly all cases in the
shape of grayish- brown patches, or as one
authority says, in the form of white spot
on the phsrynx or tonsils, from which it
extends, producing at last suffocation.
Hence it is of the utmost Importance 10
watch closely the throats of children who
are apparently i'll with cold and sorethroat.
Usually fever and prostration occur in the
early stages of the disease, though in some
instances the false membrane is formed
suddenly and almost without warning i
should be remarked that diphtheria, ordin
arily, is not a difficult disease to comba
ailing children are frequently examined
there will be little danger that parents viii
mistake incipient diphtheris for an ordins
ry cold The New York Times remarks
no doubt with truth, that scores of children
have died of diptheria who would in al
probability be now alive had the grayisl
brown patches in the throat been discover
ed at their first appearance, and compe

1t seems TO be agreed that the disease is ow
ing to some measure.to the neglect of SAINT
airy measures Sewer gas, damp cellars AM
the neighborhood Of malarious marshes, ar
mentioned among the causes Of its preva

one soweth and Another Respeth.

A city missionary says: In the
course OF my visitation from house to
house, met with an afflicted youth,
who seemed glad to meet with some
one who could talk with him about
his soul. ascertained that many
years ago he had attended the infant
class in the mission Sabbath school of a
brother missionary, and remembered
the kind friends and the good instruc-
ton he found there. And was glad
of the opportunity afforded me of
entering into my good brothers. labors.
On my further acquaintance with the
youth, found him in an inquiring
state Of mind and anxious to have a
clear idea of the way of salvation; and
he listened attentively, while L tried
10 make the matter plain to him.
Subsequently found him alone in his
room, where he seemed to have retired
for rest and meditation. He eonsid-
cred carefully what had been said, but
was not as yet fully satisfied with his
spiritual state. / then proceeded to ex-
plain the truth to him more infinitely,
and while doing so, smilingly, he ex-
claimed, %, see it now! my mistake
has been, looking at myself more than
at Jesus. 1 am thankful to you for
the instruction you have given me. |

months to find rest to my soul, and
almost despaired of it; but now 1 am

joyed the same peace of mind

The late Rev Richard Watson would
sometimes step out of his way to ad-
minister merited reproof. One Sab.
bath morning, in Wakefield, he bad
not proceeded far in his discourse, when
he observed an individual in a pew
just before him rise from his seat and
turn round to look at the clock in the
front gallery, as if the service was a
WEAKNESS to him. The unseemly act
called forth the following rebuke: "a
remarkable change" said the speaker,
"has taken place among the people OF
this country in regard to the public
service of religion. Our forefathers
put their clocks on the outside of theil
places of worship, that they might
not be too late in their attendance
We have transferred them to the in
side of the house Of God, lest we should
stay too long in the service. a sad
and an ominous changer"

Care for Anger.

Humility is the most excellent nat

he that by considering his own in
firmities and failings, makes the error
of his neighbor or servant to be his
own case, and remembers that he
daily needs Gods pardon and his
brothers charity, will not be apt to

indiscretions of another; greater than
which he considers that he is very FREE

what you can do yourself Never spend

buy what you don I want because it is cheap.
Pride costs more than hunger, thirst, and
too little. Nothing Is troublesome that we
do willingly. How much pain the evils
have cost US that never happened Take
things always by the smooth handle.

private letters, bank checks and other
documents were stolen from his pri-
vate desk. The thief or thieves sent
the stolen papers to a certain party in
Washington, who, they knew, would
place them where they would do the
most good to the political shysters
heretofore mentioned.
These private letters and other doc
uments, thus stolen from DR.. Reed )
Office, were delivered to that gentle
man, when in Washington recently :;
soon herCGftcr, DR.. Reed, for some
reason unknown to us, discharged the
clerk, who occupied the most response
BILE position in his office. OF course,
these columns are open to Dir. Stevens,
late chief clerk in DR.. Reeds office,
whose name is mentioned in the above
despatch, for any explanation he
may see fit to make. Mr.. Stevens,
who is highly respected here, has n
reputation ut stake in this matter, and
undoubtedly will be able to flsten the
guilt upon the parties who committed
the crime of embezzling or stealing
the documents of n public Office"
We Look upon the whole transaction
as a deep laid conspiracy of the alore-
mentioned disreputable political
hacks, to secure the second removal of
DR.. Reed. But the scheme has failed,
rs it deserved, and their curses are
canning Hhptnp IN roost -
1t will be surprise to the public,
however, that such a despicable, dirty
Insignificant little set of political dead
beats, who number less than dozen,
who have for years been stencil in
the nostrils of our people, and who are
at the bottom of the recent attack upon
Secretary Dcluno and Dr. Reed, should
have set the people and the press OF
the whole country talking about au
impending change in President
Grants cabinet, with no other foun-
dation for their story than few stolen
documents which in themselves
amounted to nothing.
Verify, tall oaks from little acorns
grow" but this tempest in tea
pot' has in this instance, turned into
a whirlwind, that will soon bury the
little acorns beyond resurrection.
The robbery has undergone quiet
investigation by detectives here for
several days past, and important dis
coveries have been made, duplicating
parties who are popularity supposed to
he without reproach. OF course, we
cannot give particulars as yet, us that
would defeat the ends of justice we
