Johnny and May and Dicky and Bell,
Were going down to the Daisy Dell;

Take me- tOO!' said dear little Nell.
'"Too much bother!" says lazy John.
May, "WhO wants you tagging along Z?
Too llttle!" said Bell "COurse!' said DICK; !;
"Hurry, now, Nellie, and grow up quick"
Two sweet lips to quivering fell:
TOO little for what % said dear little Nell.
"Too little" cried mother; ''toO little to bear
Our portion in lfe-a burden OF care.
s'Too little heart for trouble to weigh,
Too little for tears moment to stay;
Of wrongs and rebuffs too little to know;
From mothers own side too little to go.
.Iet Johnny and May and Dcky and Bell.
Go frolckng down TO the Daisy Dell;
But mother and Nell and pussy-cat-mew.

The quivering broke in showers OF smiles,
When mother went On to tell of the piles
Of strawberry cakes, and candies, too,
With bread and milk for pussy-cat-mew.
The four round faces visibiy fell
Looked sober enough at mother and Nell;
She nestled and said, ''id much rather stay;

BOYS MAKE MEN.

When you see ragged urchin
Standing wistful in the street
With torn hat and kneeless trousers,
Dirty face and bare red feet
Pass not by the child unheeding;
Smile upon him. Mark me, when
He's grown old he'll not forget it;
For remember, boys make men.
Have you ever seen grandsire,
With eyes aglOw with JOY,
Bring to mind some act of kindness
Something said to him, a boy?
Or. relate some slight or cOldness
With brow all clouded, when
He recalled some hurt, too thoughtless
To remember boys make men?
Let us try to add some pleasure
TO the heart of every boy;
For each child needs tender interest
In it's sorrow and i.s joy.
Call your boys home by its brightness,
They avoid the household when
1t is cheerless with unkindness-
For remember, boys make men.

Why 1t Looked Up.

Old Phineas Rice was one of the quaint
types of Inherent Methodist preachers. He
had hard patch to cultivate once, and when
he made his report to the Conference follow
ing, he reported the church looking up.
The Bishop presiding expressed his pleasure,
but asked for an explanation, because no one
expected success in that parish. DR.. Rice
was equal to the occasion, and added: 'Well,
Bishop, the church is on It's back, and can't
look any other way"

CUSTOM HOUSE DELIVERIES.

ment has given instructions to the collectors of
customs at New York to permit the deliveries
of velvets, upon retention of proper samples,
and upon deposit of all duties based on the
apprised value. This course is taken for the
reason complaints have been made of the long

they are intended.

DUE THE SOLDIERS.
AT cabinet meeting to-day the attorney
general read his opinion to the effect that ar
rears for pensions under the late law went to
the inmates of the homes for disabled volunteer
soldiers and not to the homes, as claimed by
the managers.
The opinion of the attorney general upon
questions at issue is as follows
First-The ASST gument of pension certificate
does not give to the managers right to collect
or receive pensions, therein mentioned, for any
period of time other than while the pensioner
is an inmate of the home.
Second-The home is not authorized to col
lect or receive arrearages of pensions under the
act of January rs. 1879, either on assignment
or otherwise.
Third-No payment of arrears of pensions
tor prudential reasons or otherwise to the
home, except in accordance with law, will re-
heve the government of its obligations to the
pensioner. Assignments not warranted by
SPECIAL enactment are forbidden by section
4,745, revised statutes.
