HAVE PATIENCE.

~ youth and maid, one winter night,
Were sitting in the corner,
HIS name, we're told, was Joshua White,
While hers was Patience Warner
~Now, as for Joshua, bashful youth,
His words grew fewer and fewer
Though all the time, to tell the truth,
His chair edged nearer to her.
And who can tell what thoughts OF him
Were to her bosom Hooking,
KS her fair fingers, swift and slim,
Flew round and round the stockihgE
Meanwhile her ball Of yarn gave out,
She knit so fast and steady,
And she must have his help, no doubt,
To get another ready.
ale held the skcin, OF course the thread
cot tangled, snarled and twisted
Hare patience cried the artless maid,
To him who her assisted.
Good chance was this for tongue.tIed chu'
TO shorten all palayer,
Have Patience cried he, dearest girl,
And may really have her?
"The deed was done, no more that night
Clicked needles In the corner,
And she is Mrs. Joshua White.

AFTER ELEVEN WEARS.

Poor Ernest May His great struggle in
life his years Of hardship and weary toll, IN
splred by one solitary hope, brought nothing
but bitter disappointment after all.
Ten years before, with youth, strength, aad
energy upon his side, he had entered upon
LIES battle lie was successful. The world
called him lucky" That success bred OF
undertaking will is always attributed to good
fortune. He amassed wealth, and he was en-
WED upon every side.
Yet all his successes IN life, all his wealth
of COLA and silver were nothing to him. The
desire of his early life, which had grded his
IONS. and led him onward to victory--thc one
thought and darling wish of his soul through
all these years of battlc--lay dead at the bot.

Ten years beiore-hoV well he remember.

mate of his earlier years. She was the daugh.

house yondcr," where young Ernest, although
far beneath her In the social scale, had free
entry, because his ready wit and youthful en-
thusiasm had touched the fancy of little Mel
lies parents.
Added to this, he had some claim upon
their good wil--hc had saved Nellie's life
Al the risk Of his own, one day when she fell

So the two grew together-the one a strong
impetuous boy, and the other an open.heart
ed, generous girl; and the Squire watched
their progress c0nten,edly, and never SAID
nayn 10 their familiar intercourse.
But when the time came that Ernest was
no longer boy. and he entered upon the du

The supreme court of Illinois has us' held,
in the case of Meredith, who was convicted
of murder in Mclean county, last year, that
a Judge cannot leave the bench, even tempe
rarily, during the progress of trial. 1t seems
that Judge Upton, before whom the case was
tried, had OCCASION to temporarily leave the
bench, and by consent OF prisoners counsel,
called an attorney to preside for a short time.
The prisoner was found guilty and sentenced
to be hung. He appealed to the supreme
court, which now holds that such absense OF
the Judge was Illegal; that tue prisoner OF his
counsel could not consent 10 such absence,
and that therefore Meredith has had no trial.
