"The Master has come over Jordan"
Said Hannah, the mother, one day;
!" He is healing the people who throng Him
With the touch of His finger, they say.
sand now shall carry the children.
Little Rachael and Samuel and John;
shall carry the baby Esther
For the Lord to look upon
The father looked at her kindly,
But he shook his head and smiled:
Nov, who, but a doating mother
Would think of a thing so wld?"
"If the children were tortured by demons,
Or dying of fever, 'twere well;
Or had they the faint of the leper,
Like many in Israeli e.
Nay, 10 not hinder me, Nathan;
feel such a burden of care;
If carry it to the Master,
Perhaps | shall leave it there.
"If he lays his hand on the children.
Thy heart would be lighter, know;
For a blessing forever and ever
Will follow them as they 60"
So over the hills to Jordan,
Along by the vine-rows green,
With Esther asleep on her bosom,
And Rachel her brothers between.
'Mong the people who hung on his teaching
Or waited his touch or his word,
Thro' the row of proud Pharisees, listening
She pressed to the feet of the Lord
Nov, why shouldst thou hinder the Master
Said Peter, with children like these.
Seest thou not how from morning till ev'nin,
He teacheth and healeth disease"
Then Christ said; FORBID not the children
Permit them to come unto me-"
And he took in His arms little Esther,
And Rachael lie sat on His knee.
And the heart OF the mother
Was lifted all earthly cares above;
And He laid His band on the brother.
And blessed them with tenderest love.
And He said to the babes in His bosom,
"Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven"
And strength for all duty'c trials
That hour to her spirit was given.

goings or comings. Excuse my haste
but l must bid you good morning Anc
the friends separated.
Ncttie Austin was an orphan and al
heress, and at home in the best circle,
of Greensboro Clever, cultivated anG
brilliant all called her; handsome, too
she was; tall, well formed, with heavy
braids Of dark hair, and hazel eyes whose
depths could hold the saddest, sweetest
dreamiest look possible
OF course she was admired by the op
paste Sex. There was but one of then
whom she had ever cared for, and thai
was Louis Stab She had loved him sc
long that she could not remember a time
when he was nothing to her. His cir
cumstances were far from being opulent
and he did not pretend to move in Owen
boro's best society. Those who preten'
ded to know, called him the finest look
ing man in town and there was but one
voice in regard to his eminently sensible
sterling qualities. These things, coup
led with his genial, whole. souled nature
made of him man as liable to win c
woman's heart as any about him
He had worshiped Nette Austin afal
off since they were children together. Ii
boyish days he had looked forward to {
time when he would offer her name
made famous by the wonders he woulo
achieve in science. He had given al
that up now; for he had been left father
less, with legacy of little brothers ant
sisters to care for.
Il will never be able to win her now,
he had said then, but ! shall always
love her.
A few evenings after Nettie had heard
of Mr. Staib's intention to leave thu
place, he called upon her. A few min
utes after she had heard Of his presence
in the parlor, her hand was clasped BY
him in friendly greeting.
Il have called to bid you good by
Miss Austin.
Then it is true that you are going
away?' ..
Yes, am going
Il think for our old friendships sake
you might have acquainted me with YOU
intention before
why, Miss Austin, as a surprised
joyous look came into his face, Il haG
no idea you would take the least interes,
in my affairs ..
"Why do you go, Mr.. Stab ? viii
your business prosper better Z"
"Not as well fear"
"Then why do you go?'
Pardon mel cannot tell you"
How he wished he dared tell her that
he could not stay where he was liable tc
see her day after day in the company Of
a man whom the world called her accep
ted lover! He wanted her to know thai
he loved her. But he could not risk the
scorn of the stately, beautiful woman sit
ting so near him.

rising, be held out his hand, saying. "
will not detain you any longer, Miss
Austin, and will bid you good bye
Nettie knew that every drop of BLOOD

room so exutant, feeling sure that a

A Thoroughly Practical Joke.

A young man Of eighteen or twenty, y
student in a university, took walk one
day with a professor who was common
ly called the students friend, snch was
kindness to the young men whom 1t las
his Office to instruct. .Lz4z
While they were now walking together
and the professor was trying to lead the
conversation to grave subj cts, they saw
a pair of old shoes lying in the path,
which they supposed belonged to q poor
man who had nearley finished his day
work.
The young student turned to the pro-
fessor, saying, i" Let US play the man q
trick. We will hide his shoes and con
ceal ourselves behind these bushes, and
watch to see his perplexity when he can
not find them"
"My dear friend" answered the pro
fessor, tive must never amuse ourselves
at the expense of the poor But you are
rich, and may give youself much great
er pleasure by means OF this poor man
Put crown apiece, il you have them, in
each shoe, and then we'll hide ourselves
The student, luckily having two crown
pieces, did so, and then placed himself
with the professor, behind the bushes
hard by, through which they could east
ly watch the laborer, and see whatever
wonder or JOY he might express.
The poor man soon finished his work
and came across the field to the patti
where he had left his coat and shoes
While he put on his coat, be slipped one
foot into one of his shoes. Feeling some
thing hard, he stopped down and found
the crown. Astonishment and wonder
we're upon his countenance. He gazct
upon the crown, turned it around, and
looked again and again; then he looked
around on all sides, but could see no one
Now he put the money in his pocket, ant
proceeded to put on the other shoe; bu
what was his establishment when HI
found the ether crown His feelings
ovefcame him. He fell upon his knees
looked up to heaven and uttered louC
and feryent thanksgiving, in which h
spoke of his wife sick and helpless. ant
his children, who, by some unknown
hand, would be saved from perishing
The young man stood there deeply
affected, and with tears in his eyes.
+" Now" said the professor, "arc yo'
not better pleased than if you had play
ed your intended trick I"
"Oh, dearest sir, answered the youth
"you have taught me lesson now tha
l will never forget. ! feel the truth 0
the words now which never before TN
