GOING COURTING.-One of the chief
compenSations of Il woman's life is the
fact that she don't have to "go courting." -"
1t must be confessed that in these days the
modern belle does her share of the Woo
ing; but she does not have to dress up in
stiff collar and II pair of boots Il size too
small for her to walk up to the cannon's
mouth of her inamoraa's family, consist
ing of father, mother, grandmother, II
maiden aunt and perhaps Il dozen brothers
and sisters, and inquire, in II trembling
voice:
is Miss Arabella AT home?n
Whenever n man goes Il courting, every
body seems to know all about it. His de-
meanor tells the observant spectator the
business he is intent upon. lie might as
well placard himself, Pm going court
ing" Every body is cognizant of it, and
looks knowingly, and asks him if the
" Northern lights We're bright last night
about one O'clock" and how the market
is for kerosene up at Daddy Browns" and
Il score of other questions out of place.

Sunday afternoon arrives it is plain that
something is about to happen. He is tidg-
ETY. and on-communicative and cannot sit
in one place half minute at a time. He
is continually interviewing his watch and
comparing it with the ole eight day, coffin
shaped clock in the corner. He looks in
the glass frequently, and draws his fore
head locks back and then forward, and
combs them up and pats them down, and
is unsatisiied with the effect throughout.
The smell of bay rum and bergamot is
painfully apparent. When he shakes his
handkerchief musk is perceptibe, Ills
boots shine like mirrors, and there is II
faint smell Of cardamon seeds in his breath
when he yawns. He smooths his budding
moustache with atlectionate pats, and feels
his invisible side whiskers continually to
make sure they are there, II fact which is
not established TO outside observers by
sense OF sight. He tries on all his neck
ties without finding Just the thing he
wants. Then he has spasms of brushing
his coat, that commence with violence and
last until one grows nervous for fear the
hroadcoth will not stand the friction.
He declines soup that day for dinner. He
says it is because he is not hungry, but we
know it is because there are onions in it.,
and onions, as every one knows, do moi
sweeten one breath to any great extent.
If spoken to suddenly he starts and
blushes and looks guilty us if he was
stealing something, and directly if one
does not speak to hlm he goes back to the
delightful occupation of staring at nothing
and waiting for the hour hand to creep
around to seven.

ANECDoTE ABOUT -Lincoln's
frank admission of his lack of knowledge
of naval and military terms was some-
times very amusing. In reading over II
report cf naval engagement once, he
marked something on the margin, and
when he next saw me he said: live got
Il conundrum for you, What's the differ
encc between n ship and bark" At an
other time, going down the Potomac early
in the morning, henoticed vessel sailing
intot he long shadow cast by a heaGland.
He made the remark that II poet would
probably 6nd fine figure in that ship sail
ing out of the sunshine into the shadow.
Asserting to this, corrected his nautical
knowledge by saying that the vessel was
not ship, but three -masted schooner.
After laughing at his mistake, and care
fully fixing the points of difference in his
mind as they were explained, he said Il
shall certainly know n three-masted schoon-
er from ship the next time ever see
either. When l came into this place, |
was deplorably ignorant of all marine mat
ters, being only prairie lawyer. But do
think that know the difference between
the bow of ship and her stern, and |
don't believe Secretary Welles did,"
At another time riding through the
woods in Virginia where the soldiers had
opened road, he said, looking at the
woodmen's work, "1 If there is any thing
do know, it is how to fell a tree" And as
we jolted on, he pointed out the cleanly
cut stumps of some, saying, NOW, that's
a good butt" or, 1.-The man that felled
that tree didn't know his business. See
what contemplate butt he has left. 1t
looks rs if it had been chawed Off,
This conversation naturally brought up
the subject of rail-splitting. The prosi-
dent said that he did not remember split
ting many rails in his life. In fact. rail-
fences were not in his line at all; but he
was proud, he said. of his record as
woodsman. Somebody reminded him that
he had authenticated some rails as of his
splitting during the Lincoln and Hamlin
campaign, mo, 1 didn't" he replied.
" They brought those rails in where !
was, with great hurrah, and what l did
say was, that if ever split any rails on
the piece of ground that those rails came
from, and was not sure whether had or
not. soaS sure that those were the rails. !"

which the Child had come to teach. who
had his birth in meaner shelter than
this, among men more ignorant and
poor?
The long winter day stole on. Jim
cooked and nursed, dashing out at inter-
walls to signal the approaching trains. and
made a jolly day of it. Walter was very
quiet.
You're II bit homesick, said Jim in the
evening, noticing that the tears were in
the boys eyes as he lay looking over the
snowy trees crimsoned in the setting sun,

above them. In two days you can go.
But it's a pity you couldn't have gone to

something in the old shanty which never

An Extraordinary Escape.

In the winter of 1873, Il very unsea-
worthy merchant sailing-vessel Ga Siam
ese), the Tye Wat, set out from the north
of China to Siam, with II cargo of beam
cake, etc. The weather became excess
lively stormy, and at last the old vessel
went actually to pieces many miles from
land in the Gulf of Pe-che-e. The crew
consisted of eight Malays, who worked
the ship; the captain an Englishman and
in addition was one Chinese woman. They
had no boats on board, no time to make II
raft or means Of doing so and, as the
vessel was rapidly sinking, the wrctched
people looked around in despair, when n
hope of escape struck one of them as his
eye lighted on a large wooden water tank
which was on deck. This tank was strong
ly made, about six feet long, five feet
across and five feet high, with Il large hole
at the top into which n man could squeeze,
and II tight fitting cover. There was not
Il moment to lose; Il hole was bored in the
bottom to let out the water it contained,
then quickly plugged, and all ten squeezed
themselves in hurriedly, put on the lid,
and awaited their fate. In II quarter of an
hour after they were thus packed the ship
sunk under them. They first whirled
round, and then foated off freely, and
felt themselves rolling and tossing about
on Il stormy sea. The weather was in
tensely cold-so much that the icices had
hung from the rigging of the sunken ship
the day before; and being so tightly pack
ed, perhaps it was fortunate the weather
was so cold. In their haste to save life,
they had brought only part of II ham
which the captain had snatched up, and n
bottle of brandy; and thus these poor
creatures were tossed about from day to
day. hungry and thirsty, jostled like pota-
toes shaken in Il barrel; now and then,
when they dared, letting in Il little air by
raising the lid. The situation strongly
reminded one of Gullver in his box when
the eagle carried him out to sea from the
land of the Brobdignags.
On the fifth day the Malays said they
must kill and eat the English captain.
but the Chinese woman TO the credit of
her seX) yehemenly opposed them, and
succeeded in saving him for that day. On
the sixth day the Malays said they must
eat her; but the captain in turn saved her
for that day. 1t is difficult to imagine Il
more horrible situation than that of this
poor Englishman, surrounded by eight
starving men, determined to eat him
which they certainly would have done had
not an English vessel rescued them on the
seventh day. 1t happened thus: The cap
tain of that vessel sighted a large box
tossing on the waters, and at first never
thought of minding it, only supposing it
part of some wreck, as the weather was so
bad; but rs he looked, to his inter sur
prise head popped up through II hole in

WANTS TO GET OUT.-An attempt is be-

was sentenced two years ago to fourteen
years Imprisonment in the state prison at
Windsor, for robbing the Barre (Vt.D

THE JOURNEYING ROCK.
by JOHN W. CHADWICK.

For they drank of that spiritual rock that foil
ed them.-l Cor. 1914.
Twas a legend of the Rabbis
That the rock which gushed one day,
Smitten by the rod of Moses,
Ever after, on his way,
Followed him across the desert;
Ever poured its flashing stream
From the sullen slopes of Sinai
To the Jordan's welcome CLEAN.
You may doubt it or believe it;
All is not as Rabbis say;
But the wonder they recorded
Is repeated every day.
1t is Memory that works it;
'ris the past that with us goes;
And we drink in our Petraas
That which from its bosom flows.
In our waste and desert places,
Lo! il gives us drafts divine;
Stays our thirst and cools our fever;
Strengthens more than rarest wine.
Absent never, but, as ever
Seek we stll the promised land,
sometimes with unwonted bounty
Streams it DER the burning sand.
Wonderously the fountain sparkles;
Wonderously the waters gush
And we drink with joy and rapture,
And, the while, solemn hush
Falls upon our restless spirits
At the thought of days gone by,
Like the sound of sweetest voices
Whispering downward from the sky.
Oh, my brothers, would YOU ever
Keep this fountain pure and sweet?
Balm for aching brows, and GOODNESS
For the weary hands and feet?
Open secret Ere the pressnt
Has become the Past for aye,
Crowd with deeds of loving.kindness
Every hour ofcvcry day.
Then the Rock shall be a River,
Never bitter TO the taste.
Never mocking thirst and fever
In the deserts barren waste
Then-O, heart believe it ever!-
Crossing Jorlan's shallow food,
1t shall freshen with its waters
Fen the City of our God.

OUR OWS.

II had known in the morning
How weaiily all the day
The words unkind
Would trouble my mind,
| said when | went away,
had been more careful darling,
Nor given you needless pain
But we veX our own "
With lock and tone
We may never take back again.
For though in the quiet evening
Imay give you the kiss Of peace,
Yet il might be
That never for me
The pain of the heart should ceasel
How many go forth in the morning
That never come home at night
And hearts have been broken,
by harsh words spoken,
That sorrow meier can set right.
We have careful thought for the stranger,
And smiles for the sometime guest,
But oft for "our own +"
The bitter tone,
Though we love" our own" the best.
All lips, with curse inpatient
All! Lrow, with that look OF scornl
'rwere a cruel fate,
Were the night too late
To undo the work of the morn.
