THE OTHER SNIP

Oh, mourn not for the gentle onesi
Who have but gone before:
Though much we miss their loving fones
80 sweet to Us Of yore,
lheir anchor cast within the vale.
Secure from storm or tide.
They fear no danger. dread no gale-
Safe on the other side
lie Whirlwinds sweep across our path.
Our way Is long and drear.
Aud earth no place Of shelter hath.
No peaceful home Is herel
Win longing looks across the sea,
Have we yOn shore deserted:
And then We sighed, and lOnged 10 20
safe on the other side.
How sweet our welcome when We come
To homes Of earthly love:
How sweeteT far the welcome home
To endless rest abOvel
I'VE hath not seen, ear hath not heard,
Nor heart conceived in pride.
such JOYS as have these fond hearts stirred
Upon the other side.
There are our treasures gaTnercd up,
The good, the true, the fair
Thrill, mourning souls, with joyful hope
OF sweetest union there.
When thOse beloved to meet us come
With whom ltfe's gladness died,
How glorious then our welcome home
Safe on the other side

A Telegraphic Casabianca.

1t is boy that can stay at his post as
long as there is any use of his holding it,
that is not afraid of threats nor the pres
ence of violence, and keeps his work res
olutely in hand, so long as there is any
work to do. This is what is reported of
August Doudel, the brave little telegraph
operator who was shut up in the Pitts
burg railroad Office on Saturday night.
he kept on telegraphing, doing his duty
without the slightelt regard to the mob
surrounding him. They could not drive
him away, so long as the connecting
wires responded to his hand. When at
last they fired the building, he quietly,
and with a touch Of humor, sent his last
message, ''Fire's too hot; good night,
and got away in time, showing himself
TO be as sensible as brave. Obedience TO
order and discipline were never more
needed than now, snd il is noble thing

THE EFFECT OF A LITTLE BALLAD
Will Carleton's ''Betsy and l are Out"
has so worked upon the sensibilities of
a venerable Iowa pastor and his wife as
to prevent a divorce that seemed inevi-
table after the couple had almost at
tanned their golden wedding day. To
one who recommended the reading of
the beautiful verses the pastor writes {:
"My dear sir,-I can never be sufficient
ly grateful to you for your kindly ad-
vice in relation to my domestic afflic-
ton. l acted upon your suggestion,
and it had the desired effect. We are
reunited, never again, | trust, to part
until the angel of death shall visit one
of us. God bless Will Carleton for his
little ballad, and God bless you for
making it known to me. May you new
er know anything but peace. Yours
gratefully,

"Died Last Week"

Very careless were the tones in which
these words were uttered, as, in passing
along the street, they fell upon my ear.
The fact to which they referred might
have been of the most insignificant ma
ture, to Judge by the careless utterance.
By whom they were said L know not,
and of whom they were spoken, am
equally ignorant; but they made me
think: "these three words will one day
he said of each of us, simple words, and
it may be they will be carelessly utter
ed by some, but words how full of aw-
full importw 'And he died" is the
record which comes in like a refrain, in
the fifth chapter of Genesis. The lives
there registered stretched across CEN
turtles; but of all, save one, the inspired
writer says, "And he died" This is,
and must be, the universal lot of our
race. We know it; but is there not
some truth in the poets assertion that
men ''think all men mortal but them
selves ~ Do we realize the fact, dear
friends, that we shall die? Are we liv
ing as those who must not only die, but
as those who must give account "FOT
we must all appear before the judgment
seat of Christ; that every one may re-
ceive the things done in his body &C
cording that he hath done, whether it
be good or bad"
Are we so living that when the words
shall be true of us "died last week,
those who love us may not sorrow as
those without hope, but may feel that
we ''sleep in Jesus" Dear friends, it
is not yet too late to prepare for that
solemn time; we are the living still,
and yet we may turn to God, if we have
never turned to Him before. We may
flee to Jesus, if we have never fled be-
fore but when once the words are true
of us, "died last week." there can be
for us, if we di, in our sins, no further
hope for, ''When once the master OF
the house is risen up, and hath shut to
the door, q. . he shall say, | tell you.
l know not whence We are depart from
me all We workers of iniquity."

Helping Memory.

Your memory is bad, perhaps; but /
can tell you two secrets that will cure
the worst gmemOry. One is to read a
subject when strongly interested. The
other is, not only read, but think.
page, stop, close the book, and try to
not only recall them vaguely in your
mind, but put them into words and
speak them out. Faithfully follow
these two rules, and you have the gol-
den keys of knowledge. Besides mat
tentive reading, there are other things
injurious to memory. One is the habit
of Swimming over newspapers, items of
news, smart remarks, bits of infOrma-
lions, political reflections, fashion notes,
all in a confused tumble, never to be
thought of again, thus diligently cult
waiting habit of careless reading, hard
to break, Another is the reading of
trashy novels. Nothing is so fatal to
reading with profit as the habit of run
ming through story after story, and for
getting them as soon as read. L know
a gray-haired woman, lifelong lover
of books, who sadly declares that her
mind has been ruined by such reading.
A help to memory is repetition. Moth
ing is so certain to keep your French
fresh, and ready for use, as to have al
ways on hand an interesting story in
that language, to take up for ten min
utes every day. In that case, you will
not 'forget your French with the ma
jority of your schoOlmates. Olive
