The North Wind.

The North Wind.
BY MARY BARToL
Up vaulted the bold North Wind,
And hurried a toe to find.
His breath had an icy edge
That crumpled the huckthorn hedge,
And he laughed exultingly
As he cuffed the SNOWFALL tree,
"Ha! ha! it is Christmas time!''
He beloved buffo song,
And he held one note go long
That people shivered to hear, 49,
And gasped. "'Tis the North Wind! q dear!'
While he pranced on children's toes,
And ffoze the Dominie's note,
And cried, sit is Christmas time!'i
He rushed at the rich mans floor,-
Twas never so opened before!
He galloped and chased warm airs
Far up the bnlustered stairs.
"Grand folks. Pd have you to know
Poor people are cold below,
For it is Christmas time"
He rollicked among the trees,
he made the invalids sneeZe;
With blue he notified bare feet;
In Q wrisk he swept the street;
One man he threw on the face,
Then screened through the market-place,
"Ha! ha! it is Christmas time!'
And then he lay down quite still
beneath a barren, gray hill.
And he sighed. "O'er field I've blown,
have aired out yonder town;
Now I'll sleep; the night is come;
Good young north winds should be dumb,
For it is Christmas timer

TEyHOSE who have suffered from the various and

question with considerable anxiety. And well they
may: for no disease ttat can be mentioned is SO
universally prevalent and destructive to health
as Catarrh, Bronchitis, Asthma, Coughs, and
serious and frequently fatal affections of the lungs
follow, in many cases OF simple but neglected
Catarrh. Other sympathetic affections, such as
deafness impaired eyesgh and loss of sense of SMELL
may be referred to as minor but nevertheless serious
results of neglected Catarrh, bad enough in them
selves but as nothing compared with the dangerous
affections of the throat and lungs likely to follow.

SOUR BOYS"

The San Francisco Stock Report
saws: "The newsboys of San Fran
cisco have taken steps towards the
formation OF a.society for the protec-
tion of their interests. The little fell
lows state that they are interfered
with in their work by outsiders who
come to the surface on Saturdays and
Sundays, and then only when the
weather is fine. The boys say too
that they work hard every day for all
the year round, wet, windy and fine,
and that some sort of protection is
necessary. AS they are the more in
terested parties they have decided to
protect themselves. Hence the meet
ing and hence the resolution to or
ganize newsboys' union, a body
which exists in nearly every great
city in the Union. The members are
to wear badges; headquarters are to
be established and no aliens will be
permitted to make hay only when the
sun shines. They are industrious
chaps, these newsboys, earn a living
in no easy manner, and as part OF the
sense of the meeting was to establish
a pleasant place of resort where good
moral principles might be inculcated,
they deserve the helping hand We
herewith lend to them"

GEN. SHERMAN is tired of the
Quaker Indian policy, and has gone
back to the first principles as a man
of war. He has ordered that hostile
Indians shall be pursued and pun
ished wherever caught, without re-
spect to lines or circumstances. A
few months of this policy will do
good. This handling of hostile In
dams with gloves has cost the coun
try too many lives and too much
money. A liberal use of fire and
sword will produce better results.
When the good Indians have all gone
to the good Indians heaven the
Quaker policy will be available, but
not until then.
