Duty as Rose Terry Cooke Sees 1t.


Some of you appear to doubt if you can
life is. Do not hurry. do the duty that
lies nearest thee: the rest will follow" Learn
to do the simplest, commonest things; these
all fit you for the future. And do not, above
ALL fall into that silly, childish cant of hating
duty" and doing things for ''love" 1t is the
fatal weakness these DAYS that love is exalted,
not merely above but in place of all other
virtues; that self-denial, self-control, courage,
endurance, are all set aside for the sake of
love, which is perverted to mean Incidence
and self-indulgence. This is not the love of
the Bible, but counterfeit weakness out of
which spring evils innumerable, even in the
very bosom of our homes and churches
Duty is the very breath of God and the out
come of love to him, as surely as warmth is
born of fire. Adhere to this. and the path
of life will unfold before you and the voice
of the Lord say 10 your souls: This is the
way; walk We il it. And by duty do not
mean great action suffering ,or sacrifice but the
petty details of daily life; patience with noisy,
quarrelsome. perverse children; obedience to
parents; devotion to the comfort and pleasure
of those about you; attention to your own
health, temper and appearance; a study OF
economy and neatness in the household; and
when the indoors duty is done, there remains
always some lonely person to visit and cheer
some kindly, neighborly act to perform;
some church-work to help in. Be faithful
over these few things, Mary Ann, and the
work of your life will find you out in good
time and welcome you.

Consistency a Jewel-When Found.
boston Transcript

On the authority of constant repetition we
are told that consistency is a jewel; and so
it is-when found Which reminds us of u
good old lady, now gone to her reward, whose
preaching and practice did not exactly coin
eide; and in which of us does it2 Every
Sunday it was her wont to attend all the
church-meetings morning, afternoon, and
evening; but as the distance to her home from
the church was rather far, she found her
brothers house rather convenient stopping
place during the noon intermission. This
brothers wife was notable cook-but that's
aside, for, of course. that fact had nothing to
do with the lady's visits, though she
did have a powerful appetite and gave
it full appeasment on each of these Sunday
visits. Having eaten religiously through
each course, the good lady would sit back
in her chair and say: BETSY, you should go
to church more; it isn't right for you to stay
at home the way you do" Though Betsy's
mind would occasionally run thouget as, Per
haps / could go now and then if l didn't
have to stand over hot stove every Sun
day cooking for YOU" Not being pious
woman however, she kept such thoughts to
herself, and said nothing.

fell. He promptly. informed her. She
looked at the almanac for that wear, month.
and day. Alas for Charliel thought she, as
his answer did not agree with the almanac
Charlie wouldn't give up, however, but de-
clared that he knew the almanac was wrong.
Haven't you another almanac of that year?n
inquired one of Charles confidential friends.
Il have" replied the lady, and produced it.
On comparing the almanacs it was discover
ed thai the first one was wrong, and that
Charlie was right, a mistake having been
made by the party who compiled the al
manac
His habits are peculiar He never PLAYS
with other boys, but is continually busy in
reading. Oftentimes he takes an unabridged
dictionary and studies it hour after hour,
never seeming to consider it anything. but a
pleasure to do it. In fact, he takes no COM
fort unless busying his brain about something.
If there is anything he does not understand
he keeps at it till he does understand it; then it
is next to impossible for him to forget it. One
would naturally suppose that a child with
such unusual powers would gradually fail
and fade away, but, singularly enough, he is
constantly growing stronger and more
healthy
Very many will think, perhaps. that his
ability in giving the day of the week, etc.
on which date falls, is an act of memory
merely. and that he has learned what day Of
the week each date for several wears past has
fallen on. This is not So however. He does
it by some mathematical process, as he as
readily answers about dates the DAYS of the
week of which he has never seen. What
this process is he himself can not explain.
Scarcely any of the above viii seem credi.

KEYS must have been taken from her room,
but by whom no one could tell.
Leave the key basket in my ROOM, said
a visitor the night before he left. I am
light sleeper, and if the ghost comes to get
my breakfast, shall know itp E r
Towards daybreak he hoard the keys tim
kle, and instantly threw dagger, which he
had hidden under his pillow, to the spot
whence the sound proceeded In the MORN
ing the dagger was found stuck in the door,
but no clue to the mysterious visitor could be
found. tAnt&
cat last my grandmother determined that
the mystery should be solved, whatever it
might be. and she prepared to sit up in her
room all night, listening for the faintest sound.
For "a long time all was still; and my grand
mother was beginning to fear that her long
watch through the winters night was only
wasting her strength in vain, when at last,
somewhere in the small hours, she heard a
slight thud upon the stairs. Instantly seiz-
ing her candle, she rushed out, just in time
to see a slender figure in white, carrying a
basket of turf on his arm. The fall of sod
from the fuel basket was the sound she had
heard. Ny grandmother was brave wo-
man, and swiftly as the white figure fitted
on, swiftly did She follow after, up staircases
and along passages, till just as it reached the
nursey door, she overlook it and discovered
her niece walking in her sleepl
at seems the poor girl was so anxious
about the household arrangements that she
used to rise in her sleep to accomplish all
that she knew ought to be done. How her
zeal nearly cost her life through the foolish
rashness of young visitor, have already
told you, She was never again permitted to
sleep alone. My grandmother took her to
her own bed; and clasped in her loving arms,
the poor girl learned to forget her cares, and
take a full benefit of
Tired Natures sweet rsstorer, balmy sleep.
Had not my grandmother possessed good
sense, courage and resolution, the story
might have had a very different ending"

Bronson Howard writes to the Detroit Free

bear upon every artistic point in the produc-

at this theater since the palmy days of the
earlier Boucicault drama. Mr.. Charles
Reade has made excellent business arrange

proprietor. His share of the receipts at the
Princess last week amounted to f4O0. He
also possesses the entire provincial rights. and
there is every prospect of "Drink" realizing
for him considerable fortune. The other
evening in the wine-shop scene where
Coupeau is so sorely tempted to quaff the
treacherous draught, an excited old lady in
the pit roared out to the tempters: .'Don't

Oh for day on the dear old plantation,
Just as the fair Southland home used to be!
Oh, for q swing on the gate of the garden,
Under the bOughs of the June apple tree.
Oh, for a rest in the shade of the straw stack,
Hearing the hum of the threshing machine;
OH for adr1nk from the spring in the meadow;
Under the sweet gum tree, fragrant and
green
oh for a cantaloupe juicy and mellow,
Fresh from the melon patch down by the
spring;
Oh for a night on the trundle-bed pillow,
Sleeping calm sleep that each night used to
bring.
Oh for sight of the welI-beloved faces,
Now widely scattered, and some, alas! dead.
oh for one day in the dear old home places,
Bright with the light of the days that are fed.
