As through the busy street pass,
Often in sun or rain,
] mark some pleasant household group,
Behind the windOw-pane;
The mother Is politely blind,
The father does not see,
But if note baby there,
The baby smiles at me.
Dear siBless soul of babyhood,
She does not coldly wait
To ask about my bank account,
Or bonds, or real estate,
With small soft face against the pane,
And dove-li1e coo the while,
She beckons with her dainty hand,
And answers back my smile.
She does not scorn my glance because
She never heard my name,
Nor query of my social place,
Nor question whence / came;
No tedious rule of etiquette
Restraints her loving grace,
Or chills the winning smile that lights
Her lovely wfldflower face.
She knows me by that nauneless sense,
That wisdom sweet and fine,
Which babies have ere time has spoiled
Their innocence divine;
That strange, unerring magnetism
Which some kind angel sends,
BY which all sinless things perceive
And recognize their friends;
Which draws the pigeons to my hand,
~ Fearless and trustfnl still,
Which makes the social sparrOws crowd
My friendly window sill;
The silent sympathy which makes
The homeless dog meet
Forget his hungry lonesomeness
To fawn aboatmy feet.
Ali though the world seems full, some
times,
OF darkness and of dust,
The soul is not quite desolate
Which birds and babies trust;
Life is not at all a wilderness,
Made up of grief and guile,
While eyes so shadowlcss and sweet
Smile back TO eyes that smilel

"A recent Pennsylvania discovery is
a deposit of oil which exhibits none of
the impurities of petroleum when it
comes from the ground, but, on the
contrary, spouts from the sand in a re-
fined condition. The oil comes from
the well in pale green transparent fluid,
and can be used in lamps at once. 1t
gives brilliant light, and with no
smoke or odor, and stands fire test of

THE seductiveness- one might al
most say the faseination-of interest
got, or to be got, from money is very
remarkable. Ordinarily, people who
have not had money at interest care lit
tie about it, indeed, never think of it.
But after they have once had interest
have familiarized themselves with the
fact that money is worth something
they very rarely forget it, or fail to act
upon it.-N Y Times.

Librarian Rice, of the Springfield,
Mass, City Library, deduces this con-
clusion from his experience: "Those
who begin with fictitious literature, and
thus form taste for reading, are often
led to find still greater pleasure in
works of still higher order. So fire.
quently is this the case that, were it not
for the continued influx of new and I'M
trained readers, the ratio of fiction
would be constantly decreasing. From
these considerations it will be seen that
much good is accomplished even by the
large percentage of works of fiction"

YOUTH.

o youth, sweet youth never so dear to me
As now ghen shall miss thy company.
Must thou so soon, then, go-haste thee
1t is not long. but brief summer day
Which quickly sped, methinizs, that thou
Together walked meath bright or sombeI
Thy beauteous, white-wfnged doves, that
tame, yet coy,
Fluttered and played around us ceaselessly,
Perched on thy hand or shoulder lovingly;
Then in the blue above would soar and dip,
And then return to feed from out thy lip.
Thou vast a grave companion-passing fair
Thy brow and eyes, but thy sweet smile too
rare.
And unto, me, perchance, thou'st scarcely
Too kind and fond a friendi Hast thou not
moved
Ny eager soul with promises, that brought
How many golden dream and happy
thought,
Yet never knew fulfllment-al too vain
In air had vanished when looked again?
But yet what could'st thou more? wherefore
chide thee?
Didst thou not give me all thou hadst for
me?
And now the hour has come for US to part,
do remember with bleeding heart.
Thou canst not even leave thy birds, to bless
My solitude with timid tenderness.
How dark shall be the path where must go
Alone lpncpfOrWari only Cod may ly1aOtvf
Kiss me once more, Sweet one last long en-
brace,
One lingering look upon thy fading face,
And then farewell-nor cast one glance be-
hind,
can not see, my eyes with tears are blindl

saw a crowd leaning over the Ia |, and were in

to toat himself with. 10 the meantime he had
moved down the stream, where a crowd had as

his escape, and noticing the window beside of the
stairs, he dropped out, thinking he would land on
sidewalk. He discovered what fearful mistake
he had made when it was too late, and soon found
himself struggling 10 the stream. He went down
several times; but finally succeeded in keeping
the surface and began TO cry for help, which was
mistaken for an alarm of fire. He was 10 the

and he held up until be was drawn out OF the
