SANITY WORKERS BY FREDERICK W. FARRAR. l2mo.
DID. 2O7. Macmillan & Co.
The influence of the Christian spirit In lts
widest variety of manifestation is the subject OF TINS
volume, which consists Of series of lectures delivered
before popular audience chiefly of young men engaged
in the pursuits active business. For the most part
Canon Farrar dwes the peculiar features OF print
tive and medieval religion, illustrating the lives and ex-
ample OF the martyrs the hemts, the monks, the mis-
sonaries whose history important an element
i'm the annals of the Christian Church He calls aen-
ton 10 the noble and admirable traits which we're often
conspicuous In their character without fayorng ther
intellectual errors holding up the external aspects OF
their lives as models for imitation. Even OF those who
have suffered disrepute from traditional prejudice he
has many kindly words to Offer pleading for the soul
Of goodness" which was exhibited in their conduct,
though mingled with the intrmties and snort
cOmings OF their age. The best type or inc

Aurelius, whom he resembled in selecting from

he bruised his body with blows and led it about as

He slept but little and mostly on the bare ground Al
last he went and made his home among the village

Nature revenged herself life which, however nooy

saw that cit was time for him set SAIL for he was

this was not life to he condemned or rd'cued out one
from which many lessons Of Christian truth may be
derived The same view presented Of other heroes OF
the Church who have always suffered from the harsh
judgments OF the world hut in whose experience canon
Farrar finds much 10 commend II not TO initiate HIS

VILLAGES AND VILLAGE LIFE BY NATIANIEL BILL
YER EGLEsToE. limo, pp. S26. Harper q Brothers.
A sincere love of country life is the prevail
ing impulse of this agreeable volume Mr. Egeston has
true eye for natural beauty, and less keen
OF its uses applied to social establishment and grace.
The villages of the older portions Of country the
objects Of his cordial admiration In his opinion, few
places on the globe better fitted to furnish homes Of
the highest type. But still the village life Of pop
uaOn he afrms is not yet what It ought to be. Much
of Il crude and imperfect The lessons learned
In the school Of nature have been learned only in small
part. In many Of village homes the life is of low
and animal type The body is cared for while the mind
and heart are neglected. Books few and too
monty Of the trashy The dulDess Of the country
cOntrased with the animation Of the city is admitted by
the author TO be a leading Of its want
of attraction to many tastes. Hence the
growth Of cities and large towns has be-
come dsprOpOrtiODately rapid. So strong is the flow
from the country, especially in NewEngland, that in
many districts there Ia not only comparatively slow
growth Of population. but actual decline In some
villages, houses may be going 10 decay actually
fallen down, with to take their place. The peo
pie who once dweltm them have lett them, and no chill
dren Of theirs have in their stead The farms once
teeming with grain and cattle, now, In many
Overgrown with bushes or young forests or only partly
kept under cultivation by foreign immigrants. 1t lisa
singular fact that the population Of the hill towns
pecially TO have sidden down, in large measure
into the valleys along the streams where important
tres Of manufacture have grown up Hence many Of the
older villages have not only lost in population but in
character The enterprising have gone away and
all the Of society have consequently become
less vigorous. There is less wealth. and therefore
less expenditure roads, on houses and build
iugs OF every kind schools and churches,
books and newspapers, and thus the CIV
uizlng forces are diminished in quantity, II not
altogether lost Mr.. Egcston dwells al length the
methods by which the village life Of the country may be
made more exciting more fruitful in good Influences
attractive to the taste charming to the mag
lnatOn His suggestions are founded IN good sense as
well as vide experience. All his sympathes warmly
with the people who dwell the gray htops, along
the sparkling streams, which he foreibY describes
and he has occasion to find fault with many social ar
fragments of the rural village, il in the Of
reprOof but Of friendly counsel and always with full
exposition Of the methods which the conditions Of
improvement.

Judge not from Appearance.

A true woman's heart is always
responsive to the touch Of tender
ness. Sometimes a very little thing
strikes the cord, and the whole sym>
pathetic nature is awakened, as a
little CLEAN of sunlight upon land
scape often calls out the beauties Of
a picture, and surprises and charms
the beholder. A lady in Newtown
took up the last Bee, and glancing
over the first page her eye fell upon
that little poem. " Yawcob Strauss,
by Charles f. Adams, and not rel
ishing the style she turned to her
husband and said, "Why DO they
put such stuff in the papers ?"
!" Stuff" said he, "just let me
read that for you" He took
the paper and read the first verse
describing the busy childish roguer-
les of the boy and the vexation and
WEAKNESS of the parents, till he
came to the last verse when the
little busy body Lad found rest in
sleep:
" But ven he vas asbleep in ped,
go quiet a. = mouse,
I prays der Lord. Dake anydinga,
But leave dot Yawcob Strauss
The sympathetic chord of mothers
heart was touched, and turning sud
denly away she buried her face in
her hands and burst into a flood Of
tears. She had lost two jewels and
had seen them hidden away in the
grave, and missed the patter of
their CHEEKY voices. There is
touch of pure nature in those simple
words.-Ne,Ct0wn (Ct.) Bee.

To you down in Santa Claus Land you

And perhaps you d bring an answer when
you fetch the presents round.

We're just rs poor! What we shall do for
New Years l don't see.
Where we used TO have whole dollars we
have hard work coaxing dimes.
It's Hard Times, Papa tells US. y oW,
Santas what's Hard Times?
One day when we were asking what no
hoped old Santa'd being,
He kissed Us three times round and theh
he sighed like anything:
little Pink was on his shoulder where
she always climbs
.. Christmas won't bring much to Peps,
I'm afraid, except Hard Times"
Now we want a lot of money, because
why, Just because
The shops are beautiful-you'v no idea

We've sgeeked and speaked about it, just
as sweet as peppermint,
But it amt bit of use; they don't know
how t. take hint.
So, Santa, when we're sleeping, and you're
creeping all abOnt,
Remembe put PAS presents in, but leave
the Hard Times out.
Please to excuse this letter (our first with

THE EMPTY CRADLE.

Lovingly the mother fingers
Ger the empty cradle bed;
On the pillow is a slight prin.
OF baby's shining head.
But no form is gently folded
In the blankets soft and white;
No blue eyes are upward gazing
For the mothers last good night.
Little feet " hose restless prsttle
Hu he'd and still when day was o or
Now in death are hushed forever:
Never will they meel her more.
And the tears she can not smother
Gently fall like summer rain.
Not on earth, but up in Heaven,
Mothers meet their babes again.
