and making that place they turned down
stream for the geese, which were now
passing under the bridge between piers
Nos. 4 and 5. In five minutes the
youths were surrounded by ice SO thickly
that they wggreshelpless, and were obliged
to float with the ice and current. They
cried to persons on the bridge for help,
and men in the engine. house on the draw
ran down with ropes and threw them to
to the imperiled navigators, who clutched
hem eagerly. But ropes could not hold
their craft great while in that current,
with the ice passing against it power
fully; SO they tied the ends of two lines
to the bow and stern Of the skiff, and the
men on the bridge took hold of the other
ends and pulled the skiff, with its
occupants, clear out Of the water, and
held them for several minutes until the
masses of ice had foated under the boat
and another clear sheet of water was
presented; then they were lowered again,
and they made for the island shore with
all their strength, to escape new field
of ice that was fast approaching them.
As for the geese, the ltire flock went
below the bridge and persisted.

What q Mule Can Do.
Louisville Courier Journal.

Louisville Courier Journal.
This mule looked like he was one
hundred and thirty-eight years old, and
was dead standing upon his feet. Rs
was hitched to a pine~bodied spring
wagon, with high dashboard. The
"team" was standing on the levee in
mute silence, while the old darkey who
"driv" it went aboard the ~harfboat. A.
tramp could make barrel OF money
selling pictures of that mule, labeled
"Patience." His long, 1abby ears hung
down each side OF his head like window
awnings with the rods out Of them. his
face wore sober look, while out of his
mouth hung 8 tongue eight inches long.
His tail swung down from the rear end
of his hurricane roof like wet rope,
while his whole body seemed as motion
less as death itself. Presently red
headed urchin, with an old boot in his
hand, walked up in 'front.' of him, and,
looking into his face, saw that the mule
was asleep. He walked around, CLIMBED
| up into the wagon, leaned over the dash
board, lifted that mules tail, ana let 1t
come down in time to snatch death grip
on that boot leg. That mule woke up 80
| quick that he kicked the boy and the
dashboard twenty teet into the air. he
didn't stop there. He changed the posi-
ton of his ears, hauled in bis tongue,
planted his fore feet and his head between
Lis knees, and from the fore shoulders to
he tin of his trunk was in lively motion,
and he didn't look like he was more than
two years old, the way he was kicking
that old wagon body into kindllng WOOD
with bis heels. He had it all to himself
and was doing finely, when the old dar:
kew rushed up the hill got in 'front.' OF
him, grabbed him by each ear shouted,
"Whoa! l tell you. Watts de matter wiz
YOU? Whoa.up!" and, looking around
] at the crowd, yelled, "Will some o yer

hold him? kase de waggin's mine' an I

ventured, and when we left his heels haa
almost reached the tail-gate' and the olo

The Cure For Gossip.

Every body must talk about something.
Ths poor fellow who was told not to talk
for fear that the people would find out that
he was a fool, made nothing by the ex-
pertinent. He was considered tool be-
cause he did not talk On some subject or
other. Everybody must have something
to say, or give up society. Of course,
the topics of conversation will relate to
knowledge. If q man is interested in
science, he will talk about science !;
and ii he is familiar with literature,
and is an intelligent and persistent reader,
he will naturally bring forward literary
topics in lis conversation. So with social
and religious questions. "0ut of the
abundance of the heart the mouth speak
eth" That ofrwhich the mind is full,
that with which it is furnished, will
come out in expression. ! ~
The very simple reason why the world
is full of gossip is that those who indulge
in it have nothing else in them. They
must interest themselves in something.
They know nothing but what they learn
each day in intercourse with and obser-
walton of their neighbors. What these
| neighbors do, what they do say, what
happens to them in their social and bus.
mess affairs, what they wear, these be-
come the questions of supreme interest.
The personal and social life around them
this is the book under constant perusal,
and out of this comes that pestiferous
conversation which we call gossip. The
world is full of it, and in million houses,
all over the country, nothing is talked Of
but the personal affairs Of neighbors.
| What is the cure for gossip7 Simply
culture. There is great deal Of gossip
that has no malignity in it. Good-na-
tured people talk about their neighbors
because, and only because, they have
nothing else to talk about. III
Gossip is always personal confession
either of malice or imbecility, and the
young should not only shun it, but by
the most thorough culture relieve them.
selves from all temptations to indulge in
it. It is low, frivolous, and too often q
dirty business. There are country
neighborhoods in which it RACES like q
pest. Churches are split in pieces by it,
Neighbors make enemies by it for life
In many persons it degenerates into .
chronic disease, which is practically in
durable. Let the young cure it whils
they may.

MY WOODS.
BY JOAQUIN MlLLEB,

Could l but return to nay woods once more,
And dwell in the depths rs / have dwelt,
Kneel in their moses as I have knelt,
Sit where the cool white rivers run,
Away from the worll and half hid from the sun
Hear wind in the woods OF my storm-torn shore
Glad to the heart with listening
IL seemed to me that then could sing,
And sing aB never sung before.
ii.
I miss, how wholly miss thy wood,
Ny matches, magnificent dark-leaved frs
That climb up the terrible heights Of Hood.
Where only the breath Of white heaven stirs
These Sips they are barren; wrapt In storm7,
Forml ,ss masses of Titan forms,
They loom like ruins of a grandeur gone,
And lonesome as death to look upon.
o God |. once more in my life to hear
The voice of wood that is loud and alive,
That stlrs with its being like vast beehive!
And oh. once more In my life to see
The great bright eyes of the antlered DEER
To sing with the birds that sing with me,
To tread where only the red man trod,
To cay NO word, but listen to God
