FILTRATION.
By SARA r. BUCHANAN

Young Spring is sly coquette;
She flilts with old Winter yet;
And he, the worn out old beau,
From her charms is 10th to go.
The flowers are sad and pale,
And the winds angrily wall,
While over the cold, gray sky,
The clouds, like ghosts, fit by.
A blue-bird with dropping wing,
just trying his best to sing,
Found "slurs" in his pretty throat,
And ''quavers' in every note.
Spring took no heed Of the grief,
The time for flirting was brief;
Che gaZed in her beau's dim eyes,
Cold, bleared and gray as the skies,
And said Dear, to prove your heart,
A 'giftie' before we part"
He gave-would you like to know?
Why, simply a wreath Of snow.

Death of Lottie E. Chesley. at Win
throp, Iowa.

"And is she gone, that was so bright?
And will she never glad our sight
Again?-'tis well-she was too pure
To dwell on earth, and Heaven, sure,
In mercy took her early hence,
Fen in her virgin innocence.
A rose too frail, too formed for love,
To bear misfortunes cruel blast;
She sank at once-'twas instant past,
And the fair flower now blooms above!'
Yes, our darling" is gone-so sweet,
SO precious in life and so beautiful in
death. Never have we ever witnessed
anything SO lovely as little Lottie /" pre-
pared for her last resting-place. A smile
of perfect content rested upon her beau
tiful features, and she looked as if she
had just dropped asleep, as indeed she
has, in thenrms of Jesus. Blessed baby.
May God comfort the bereaved parents,
and although He has taken their first and
only one, may they be able to say, " He
doeth all things we'll" A.

Mr.. Brlntnall is a logical and forciable
speaker, though we fancy he lacks the

thought, the ideallty that are such marked
characteristics of Mr.. Leavitt's mind and
its operations. But Mr.. Brintnall is a
robust, large-natured, genial man, and
since there must be change, his engage
ment is probably the best that could have
been made. The time will certainly
come, however, when the Society will re.
greet having parted with Mr.. Leavitt.-

The Triumph of Art in Railroad Travel.

Year by year we note the footsteps of
progress in many directions In no di-
rection is progress more palpable than
in the facilities offered the railroad
travel Of the present day. Looking
back but a few years, we can see the
toiling wagon, as it a slowly but
surely drawn toward shutdown by the
patient OK, or the slow moving farm
horse; then came the old fashioned stage
coach: following closely, we have the
canal packet; then the steamer on the
lakes and rivers; then the locomotive
engine and the stage like car. Now!
the palatial coach, and more than pala-
tial drawing Don and sleeping car.
Yet, not satisfied with these, the mar
vel of mammoth western corporations,
the Chicago & North Western railway,
as we stated some weeks ago, has devel-
oped hotel cars that will, for elegance,
usefulness and real comfort, etlirse
everything of the kind that has been
hitherto placed in service On any road.
