A Slight Mistake.

The heroic conduct of maiden lady
who captured burglar concealed under
her bed by seizing his head and pounding
it on the floor was set forth some months
ago in these columns. Naturally, the
heroism of the lady in question was great
ly applauded by her sex, and thousands
of maiden ladies resolved. that should
they ever discover a burglar in a similar
position they would do likewise 1t is
one thing, however. to resolve and anoth-
er to execute-as, in regard to burlars,
the recent experience of Miss Wilkinson,
of Carlisle, Wis, clearly shows.
Miss Wilkinson is a much respected
lady who, from circumstances beyond her
control, is unmarried and without any
responsible relatives. She inhabits the
three pair, front of select boardin e house
and spends most of her time in the Sc
clusion of her room The other boarders
on the same floor are all young men; but
as Miss Wilkinson has a strong lock on
her door, which she nightly reinforces
with washstand, she considers herself
reasonably safe. Her room is model of
neatness, and the chaste single bedstead
which stands with its head between the
two first windows is adapted to fill the
mind with the holiest emotions. This
remark may, perhaps, seem somewhat
devoid of meaning, but there is no doubt
that it is highly poetical.
On Sunday night last Miss Wilkinson
returned from church at 9 o'clock, and,
being somewhat tired, resolved to 60 to
bed at once. She laid aside her outer
garments and arrayed herself for the
night, with the exception of postponing
the rem oval of her boots. These she al.
ways wore, as she has subsequently ex-
plained until the last moment with the
view of guarding against cold and carpet

Dandelion.
BY KATE NJ. SHERWOOD.

On the hill and in the green,
Through the dewy meadow,
Underneath the feet of men,
In the sun and shadow,
Lo she lifteth up her face
To each rival conner;
Dandelion, crown and grace
OF the perfect summer.
Who hath sent thee, starry one,
With thy faith and meeknesS,
And thy lessons to out-run
Thoughts of human weakness?
Who hath set thee in the way
OF the faint and weary,
Just to teach that beauty may
Bloom where all is dreary?
Who hath said 20 flower, go
To my sons and daughters,
Down by many waters;
That If crowded from the plain
To the lane and by-way,
They may lift their heads again,
Brave as on the highway"
There is One who knoweth well
Human hearts are breaking,
Knoweth more than we can tell
OF their silent aching;
And along the rugged ways
Tender tokens giveth
Starry witnesses give praise
That Our Father liveth !
