How often in bright sunny days of youth,
Have our ears greeted words from maxim OF truth
As we grow quite impatient at play:
Perseverance and patience are weapons of war
To crown with success all our labors and care;
For " Rome was not built in a day."
When older we grew and garden was ours
To dispose Of, and decorate gaily with flowers,
In the balmy bright month Of May:
Or the task of dull lessons we tackled at school,
We learned by experience the force of the rule,
That Rome was not built In day."
II opinions we ask of the learned and great
Who beer the distinctions of title and state,
The Philosophers sage and gray;
How they gained such high stations of honor and
mind?
They reply with decision and dignity kind,
That " Rome was not built in day.
Ask Nature herself how, with magical tread,
She changes the chasm Of Niagara's rock bed
BY the gentle splasbing of spray?
The reply is not heard by the listening ear
Although to the conscience tits silently clear,
" Rome was not built in day"

"A KNOWING COURT" An aneedote
is related of a court held in a village turina
the past year. which we regard as one OF
the richest in its line Of any that has been
recorded. The r7Sr uu trial was for the
sale of l.4uor. The principal witness wa
sinsularly obtuse, and. though cnnf-.slng

was the hardest part of all to manage. be-
cause II was necessarily so slow. Four
hundred young Arabs are not easy to keep
quiet. Some children sang hymns from the
stage. but evidently the repre- sentatiyes OF
the North End were not versed in hymns.
Some one struck up whoa, Emma" and
the response was startling. Not a four
year-old among them but squeaked the cho-
rus with vim that told of frequent prac-
tice. Another song appeared to be as great
a favorite. new to me, but sung by them
with appalling unsnimity.

through the whole year, and r.any times
talked over. 1t was like a window In their
narrow lives opening into something
brighter which was possible 10 this world,

them into contact with kindly-speaking
people, and let them know that the world
was not all as harsh a il seemed to them

them unusually bright or good, many

creatures, old a. wen as young, to their
fate as We dn; that, having money, leisure,

cdly and seliishly, while human beings are
going down into misery and crime all

always have with u, probably, But it is
safe to say that If one halg Of Us did what
We might easily do for them, they would
not number hall what they do number. nor
would their condition be half as miserable
As 1t Is. We are all guilty that We are SO
content to let them alone.

The Cleveland Leader tells the follow
ing pleasant story OF a half dollar: "A bad
penny always returns. IL is said but one
instance Is recorded where = silver half
dollar returned TO its possessor after cir
culation OF twenty years. A man living in
Canton, o., bad in his possession about
twenty-five years ago a silver hall dollar
with the date 1873, and that being his natal
year. he cut his name on it and thought To
retain II as a relic; but few years after he
paid it out BY mistake, and Tor twenty years
il look its course In the general circulation.
A few days ago he sent his little daughter
to neighboring town on an errabd, aud
upon her return she gave him some change,
and with it was the identical half dollar
witb mis- name cut on"

Grsndpa's Soliloquy.


Uwa>n't 20 when was Young.
We u.od plain l,ngusge then:
We diin't speak Il them gsloots,
hen meaning boy and men.
Whan speaking ofthe nice hsnd-write
oi Joe, or Tom. ar Bill.
We did II plain-we didn't say
''lic sling nasty quill"
Then when we met a good. old friend
We hadn't lately seen.
We greeted him-bu, iidn't say.
"Htllu. YOU Old sardine."
The bows got mad sometimes and fit:
We spoke OF kicks and blows.
But now they "whack him in the snoot,
And paste him on the nose"
Once, when a youth was turned away
From her he held most dear.
He walked on oa his feet-but now
He ''crswls Of on his ear"
We used to dance when wss young.
And used TO call il so;
Blu, now thev don't-they only "slng
The light fantastic toe.
or death We spoke In lsnguage plain.
That no one did perplex.
But in these days one doesn't die
lie passes in his checks"
We praised a msn Of common sense,
iii, judgments good" We said;
But now they say: "Weil. that old plum
Has go' level head
It. rather sad the children now
Are learning all such talk:
They've learned 10 "chn" instead OF chat.
And waltz" instead Of walk.

CoIFFUREs.
Chatelaine braids dropping low at the
back are very much worn, not only by
young ladies but by matrons, and strange
TO say, the sIllest fashion knowu-that of
banging the front hair, is now also adopted
by ladies' 10 longer young. coil either
crimped or braided with short curls at
tached at the back is often worn high on
the head, but remember that long curls are
an offence to all beholders, and completely
out of vogue. The front hair is twisted,
curled, frizzed, waved, and scalloped In so
many different ways that | could not begin
to tell you the hall. In writing of the front
hair decline to state whether it be the
lady's by Inheritance or purchase. II mas
culiues in their simplicity are deceived, let
them remain so. But the sight Of a hair
dressers window would incline to the be-
irt that good many are sold. Who buys
them, It would be III natured in me to say.
