CASTOR OIL.


She had her mind made up for two
or three days that the boy needed some
castor oil. but she knew that she must
approach him gently. She placed the
bottle where he could see it. and when
he turned up his nose she said:
''It's just like honey. my darling"
He seemed to doubt her word, and
she continued:
..If you'll take some I'll let you go to
the circus"
s.How much ?" he cautiously inquired.
''Oh. only spoonful, just one spoon
full" she replied as she uncorked the
bottle.
"And you'll give me some sugar, be-
side ?" be asked.

He waited until she began pouring
from the bottle, and then asked:
"And you'll give me ten cents, too?"
"Yes, of course" -
"And you'll buy me shoo-hy kite ?"
he went on, seeing his advantage.
1 Il guess so.''
"No kite-no ile," he said and drew
back.
SWELL, Ill buy you the kite" she re-
piled, filing the spoon clear up.
.And velocipede ?"
'.I'll think of it."
"You can't think no castor oil down

his hat.
''Here-I will. or I'll tease father to,
and know he will. Come, now. swal-
low it down."
"And you'll buy me goat9''
Yes"
"And two hundred marbles %

"And coach dog ?''
Il cant promise that.
"All right-no dog, no ile!''
"Well, I'll ask your father"
Sand you'll buy me a pony ?"
"oh, I couldn't do that. Now be q

"Oh, yes, I'll swallow that stuff. I

4 "REMINISCENCES OF NIAGARA.

| remember when | was but a boy
that man got into the rapids here, hav-
ing been carried down in boat. which
was broken to pieces. He had the good
fortune to be dashed on rock, to which
he clung. It was at the height of the
season-August, if recollect- and he
clung there for full thirty-six hours.
Everybody streamed out Of the hotels
and the village; the banks of the river
particularly on this side, were thronged
with people anxious to do something to
save him. Dozens of plans were sug-
gested; some attempted. but they all
failed. Thousands of dollars were offer
ed to anybody who could rescue him.
The desperate situation of the man had
been telegraphed all over the country,
and every train brought crowds of pas
sengers hither to witness it with their
own eyes. He was encouraged by shouts
from the banks, but whether he could
understand anything said is doubtful.

It is, or appears to be unsympathetic.
because the object for which sympathy
is asked is abstract. When it is tangi-

could be seen. He was an ordinary un-

eagerness to rescue him. Women Of

happy wretch, SO vivid was their sympa-
thy.
Many persons sat up all night looking
across the seething, roaring waters at
the small dark figure still clinging to
the rock. The morning came; renewed
efforts were made, but they all miscar-
ried. The crowd had increased; it was
immense. Everybody was excited. Tears
were in the women's eyes the pallor

their cheeks. Cant something be done !?

faces Is there no way to rescue him
Such questions were incessantly asked;
but, alas no reply could be given.
strength. He clung to the rock with
the desperation of dying soul. To
lose his hold was to be dashed over the
cataract. Apparatus and contrivances
arrived from Buffalo. New experiments
and new failures. Hoarse shouts still
rang across the rapids to hold on. to be
of good heart. The stoutest heart that
ever throbbed could not gripe that rock
forever. It was wonderful how he had
endured. A fresh idea had come to the
minds of half dozen mechanics. They
were laboring to throw out a hawser !;
every muscle was strained; every eye
was bent upon their work.
Suddenly the man slipped away. He
was exhausted; he threw up his arms !;
he dashed toward the cataract. A low
groan as from one breast quaked through
the thrcng; the thousands shivered with
terror. A black object for moment
longer in the hell of the waters, and
then disappeared forever. There was
an agony of relief. No one moved no
one spoke for a while. All looked in
the direction where the figure had been
swallowed up. 1t was the enchantment
of terror; it was the chill of tragedy
distinctly wrought which froze every
one for the moment to the spot.
The old resident-he has lived here
forty years-says that an average about
six persons are carried over the falls ev.

are wholly or partly intoxicated and lose
their lives By carelessness or reckless
ness in rowing above the rapids, going
beyond the line Of danger. But for liq

THE PIN.

Only pin, yet II calmly lay
On the tufted floor in the light of day;
And 1t shone serenely far and bright.
Rejecting back the MONDAY light.
Only boy yet he saw that pin,
And his face assumed Hendish grin;
He stopped for while, with look intent,
Till he and the pin alike were bent.
Only chair; but upon its seat
A well-bent pin found safe retreat;
Nor had the keenest eye discerned
That heavenward its point was turned.
Only man; but he CHANGED to drop
Upon that chair, when, fzz-bang-popl
lie leaped like cork from out a bottle.
And opened wide his valve de throttle.
Only yell, though an honest one,
1t lacked the element Of fun;
And boy and man, and pin and chair,
In wild confusion mingled there.

FAITH AND FEELING.-Emotion is, in
the nature of the case, transient. You
find yourself in high state of feeling.
You enjoy it; you want to keep it up );
you try to do SO. But feeling never
comes by trying. You fail. While the
feeling is at food you suppose you have
much faith; when it is at cbb, you sup
pose you have little. Neither the food
nor the ebb proves anything. You should
neither be exhilarant because of feeling,
nor depressed for lack of it. Feeling
no more proves the existence of religious
life than the sparkle of the sun on the
snow proves growth in the grass beneath
it. The corn needs light and darkness
as much as sunlight. Life is the test
of faith Christian Union.
