How IT FEELS TO SWALLOW A Mouse.
The Coh9 On. " Eagle tells Of Gu
rious accident happening to q son of
James O'Helan. residing on Sartoga st.
1t seems that Willie, the youngest child,
bright boy of twelve or thirteen wears
OF age, laid down in the corner of the
kitchen, Monday night, and being tired
out was soon fast asleep. The father
was reading at a table placed ut the CEN
tire OF the room, the rest of the family
were all in bed, and consequently the
house was perfectly still. Suddenly n
startling cry came from the child. which
aroused the father, who made rush for
the boy and asked him what was the
matter. The boy clasped his father in
his arms, and with startling eyes exclaim
ed, Father, have swallowed mouse.
and l feel him biting me inside, In
an instant the father had the house q.
reused and messenger. was sent for n
doctor who soon arrived. and admins
tered an emtic which had the desired ef.
feet. and the boy after terrible reich.
ing, threw up the mouse, and strange to
say, the creature was alive and active.
making his escape to hole in tho floor.
1t appears that while the child slept. he
had his mouth open, and the mouse, which
was very small one, getting frightened
by a muscular motion ofthe child. lump
ed into his mouth and down his throat.
but how he remained alive in the bows
stomach is a mystery.

love the ''oid. old story"
On earth I've loved it we'll;
And now 1 30 TO sing it
Where holy angels DWELL
10 sing with heavenly music,
Amid the choirs above,
"Of Jesus and His glory,
or Jesus and his love-"
Full oft, through pain and weakness.
MY lips must silence keep,
While yet my heart is singing
Sweet songs that never sleep.
Fain would I break the silence.-s
For doubling thoughts will rise, -
To question Hmy Father ~
Is kind as we'll as wise. eos :
But then the dear old story
Comes to, my heart again, 80.
AS on some parched desert
Falls the refreshing rain.
So gratefully and softly
within my weary soul
Is oreathed the heavenly message,
Christ Jesus makes thee whole"
thought to tell the story,
SO beautiful and true:
But he has given His servant
Another work to do
To stand beside the river,
And wait His holy will,
Whether He says. eco forward"
Or bids me linger still.
Though storms of pain sweep DER ME,
They cannot do me harm;
l only cling the closer
To Jesus loving arm.
He knows whate'er 1 suffer-
He suffered more for me,
When, in the deepest anguish,
He died on Calvary.
One work the Lord has left me,
To take up day by day.
While others bear the burden.
He bids me for them pray,
He'll find another servant
To labor in my room;
If souls are brought to Jesus,
What matters it by whom?
0 We who love the Saviour,
Who hear your Kings commands,
1e unto whom is given go
Both strong and willing hands:
Go, lift the gospel banner,
Go in the Spirits might.
Till with its bright unfolding
1t nils the world with light.
