One who prides himself that II am a

all things at all times, without regard to
courtesy, discretion or Christian kindness,
Is not model of frankness, but rather a
social pest.-[S. S. Times,

Pecuiarities of the Winter of 1889.

Some peculiar features of the weather
this season are worthy of notice. The
manner in which the northern part of
the state of New York has been buried in
snow, storm succeeded storm, until the
whole region became almost wholly i'm
passible from the burden of it, is a re-
markable incident of the season. The
railroads in that region have had an al
most unprecedented experience. On the
New York Central 26 feet of snow held
its own against the train for five DAYS.
One train in charging it struck an un-
yielding mass of ice, five engines went
over and were completely wrecked one
engineer was killed. 1t took a force of
twelve hundred labOrers nine hours to
clear the track. In this battle with the
elements, cases of herOism and rare de-
votlon to duty were frequent. Brake
men were frozen at their brakes. en-
gine-drivers were killed and wOrkmen
tolled for days with the mercury below
zero. In connection with this subject
1t is curious to note a remarkable and
most fatal change of weather which oc-
Cured i'll South Africa during the recent
winter there (our summer.) Last An
gust piece of country in the Trans
vael, between fifteen and twenty miles
wide and perhaps the same in length
was visited in twenty-four hours with
such sudden change of temperature
from o5 to AZ degrees Fahrenheit
that more than one hundred bodies of
dead Kaffirs, besides oxen, were found
as If killed by the sudden extraction of
caloric. Here was the touch of a .scold
wave," very limited in extent, and in a
region rarely visited in this way.-Poyf-

To NV Child in Heaven.

BY SARAH DE WOLF GAMwELL.
And hast thou been one week in heaven. my child
And am l. then, mother to one of those
Who wait before the Throne of Godl Methinks
If conld pierce one little space of time,
Through the thick veil that hides thee from my
sight
And see thee there all glorious thou art;
If could catch even the faintest strain
OF that eternal song, to which thine
Is now attuned would submit-nay, more,
To thank Thee, Father, even through binding
tears
And from bleeding heart, that Thou didst deem
Me worthy of such honor. But ah,
The flesh is weak and did love thee so,
My child And did take such great delight
In all those little ways which only mothers know.
And did pride me on thine unfolding
Promise; and did build such hopes, high hopes
OF what we'd be- each to the other, as
The years rolled on But one short, dreadful day
And thou vert dust before mine eyes, and now
My arms are empty, and my heart cries out
| Continually in agony of pain;
For when call thy name, through endless space
| There comes no answering sound, and when lift
My arms imploring, they clasp empty air.
And when 1 raise mine eyes, the midnight stars
Flash back their cold eternal brightness,
Or the MONDAY sun mOcks at my grief.
Is it so then Is this great tragedy
Of life and death, but mockng; and does
Nature laugh through all her secret places,
| And toss in pastime souls, mere paythings of her
will2
Long ages back, sore distre ssed, and burdenet
| With sorrows weight, left upon record this
| Question, pregnant for all the coming years.
| IF a man die, o, shall he live again 2"
And while pray Unfold to me this mystery,
| o Father, Lord of heaven and earth
A vision rises my sight.
| Of thOrns, pierced side, cross uplifted;
And in the midst, One like the the Son of Man,
While down through year wear, and age on age
Rings clear and strong voice triumphant:
| Il am He that OvercOmeth
have met and conquered Death"
o Death, thou mighty onel Thou strong and terri
| bleI
| Twas not to thee alone that we resigned
Our little one when the dark waters bore
| Her from our sight. One mightier than thou
Rode on the surging billOw, and to our
| Worn, aching hearts the promise came 'In Me
She shall have life" o, blessed Life o, gloriou
Hope,
Our darling lives in Heaven.

Economy,

No man is rich whose expenditure
exceeds his means; and no one is poor
whose lncOm1nSs exceed his Outgoings.
1t is no small cOmmendation to manage
little thing we'll. He is a good wae-
Oner who can turn in little room. To
live well in abundance is the praise of
the estate, not the person. 1 will study
more how to give good account of my
little, than how to make it more.
Let honesty and industry be thy con-
stant companions, and spend one penny
less than thy clear gains, then shall thy
hlde-bound pocket soon begin to thrive,
and will never again cry with hunger !;
neither will creditors insult thee, nor
want oppress, noI hunger bite, nor
nakedness freeze thee. The whole
hemisphere will shine brighter, and
pleasure spring up in every corner of
thy heart. Now, therefore, embrace
these rules and be happy. Danish the
bleak winds of sorrow from thy mind,
and live independent. Then shalt thou
be man, and not hide thy face at the
approach of the rich, nor suffer the pain
of feeling little when the sons of fortune
walk at thy right hand; for independ-
ency, whether with little or much, is
good fortune, and places thee on even
ground with the proudest of the golden
fleece. Oh, then, be wise, and let in
dustry walk with thee in the morning,
and attend thee until thou reaehest the
evening hour for rest. Let honesty be
as the breath of thy soul, and never for
get to have penny when all thy ex-
penses are enumerated and paid then
shalt thou reach the point of happiness,
and independence shall be thy shield
and buckler, thy helmet and crown,
then shall thy soul walk upright, nor
stOOp to the silken wretch because he

built my nest by pleasant stream
That glided on with a smile in its gleam
Bringing me gold that was sunless;
All me ! but the floods came drowning one day
And swept my nest with its wealth away;
1 in the world was homeless!
1 built my nest in gay green tree,
And the summer of life went merrily
With us we were birds of feather!
But the leaves soon fell and my pretty ones flew,
And through my nest the bitter winds blew;
Twas bare in the mildest weather.

No rising of foods, no falling of leaves,
Can rock my hearts endeavor;
Waters may wash, and breezes may blow,
In the bosom of Rest 1 shall smile, shall know
My rest is safe forever.

For the Caledonian.
The Pawned Bible.


1.-THE following touching story comes
to us from Il source which if we should
reveal would be abundant evidence to
thousand of our readers that it is
literally true. Yet it has all the ele-
ments of Iomance.-Ed. Cal
On my table lies large Bible which
was ''printed i'll Brattleborough, VT,
1929" and contains family records of a
certain family in three successive gen
erations. 1t is yellow with age. and
badly SCARED, indicative of hard treat
ment somewhere in its journey to its
present home.
What strange stories these relics OF
the past could tell had they power to
speak. The old "Witch House" of
Salem, suggests many thoughts to the
stranger, passing through its rooms.
and creeping slowly into its suspicious
old garrets, but it utters no complaints
as it shows the marks of those dark
times. We hush our breath in London
Tower, as we think of Lady Jane Gray,
of Sir Walter Raleigh, and of the
smothered royal children. But the grim
walls are silent, the damp cells repeat
no grOans, and the gay world glides by
the Old Tower as if it had no history.
On this Bible, Ezra Lacount and his
young wife laid their hands together
and asked for help from God. On its
page of "Births" they recorded the
names of their children. On its page
of ''Deaths" they recorded the name
of their first born, at the age of four
years.
Ezra was an intelligent young trades
man, generous to a fault, ambitious to
succeed, and tender-hearted as a child.
His gentle wife made home happy by
her cheerful ways and careful economy ;
and in few years, their home was
stored with many comforts, and sur
rounded with more than the common
conveniences for family use.
But the young wife early became
alarmed by the frequent visits of GER
tain men with her husband. He was
spending his time in idleness, and away
from home without business calls. She
soon discovered that his gentlemanly
visitors were trading with him, taking
good property and giving poor, and
making up the balance with some kind
OF liquors. In short she found that he
was drinking up his property, and mad
dened by rum, for that was the effect OF
alcohol upon him, it made him ugly and
| reckless.
His manner towards her was all
changed, and his words were no more
kind to his children. His fall was only
the sad story of the drunkard, SO often
repeated, that the dark catalogue of
sorrow need not be given here. The
noble, industrious, and loving husband,
the kind, tender father, and respected
citizen, soon became a cruel drunkard.
who, when heated with drink, often
struggled hard to kill both wife and
children as his hated enemies.
The saloon keepers we're his constant
companions, and in less time than for
tune smiled upon him, he had wasted
all, and come down to want and woe.
Rum had literally taken every comfort,
every convenience, and the home and

For nearly two years past young
man wearing the arb OF q Highland
piper has been wandering about in The
coal regions of Pennsylvania, playing
his pipes in the streets, attending
picnics and dances, and apparently de-
pending on his instrument to make
him a living. a few days since he
was playing IN mining village on
the outskirts OF Scranton, Pennsylva
MIA A crowd had gathered around
him, among them mine laborer
named Brady. Suddenly the piper
ceas d the music aud stepping from
Il crowd seized Braidyby the should 1
aud announced that the l,borer was
his prisoner. At the same time he
produced papers which he said were
his authority tor making the arrest.
Brady seemed entirely overwhelmed
by the arrest; aud made no opposition
to the authorities when ivsyas reveal
ed that the piper was detective. For
two years he had been on the track Of
his prisoner, who is charged with hay
ing murdered wealthy man named
Findlay, in Scotland in January, 1877.
Brady was in the empty OF Flndlay.
Early one morning the later was
found dead by the roadside, his skull
crushed with club. Brady had been
discharged the morning before for
drunkenness. He had been heard to
make threat that he would get even

detective was employed by The rola-
tives of the murdered man to come 10
this country and search lor Braid y,who
it was thought would bring up IN the
PENNSYLVANIA coal res ons, where he
had friends working. One OF Braldys
peculiarities was his love for the bag

The Canvass Opened.

The canvass for the next Legislature
has opened. We make the first an.
nouncement in this issue. Questions in
which the people ofthe State are deeply
interested will be committed to the rep
resentatives who will be chosen at the
next election. These subjects WILL we
have no doubt, be discussed before the
people at their respective voting places.
The time is still ample for full canvass
ofthe county. We elect but one repre-
sentative, instead of two as heretofore.
A Senator from the district composed OF
Shenandoah and Page, is also to be
chosen. As Page has had the honor
last, we suppose there will be no can
didate from that county. Shenandoah
will not lack for men who are willing to
serve the district. Several names have
been mentionedin this connection. The
gentlemen who are willing to serve,
will, we have no doubt, announce them
salyes IN due time.
