DR.. s. felt confident that the thief
had been secured, and was equally sure
that, with the conductors evidence, he
would be convicted. He took Jennie to
hotel, and, with assurances of hope,
babe her goodnight.
The poor affrighted girl threw herself
into a chair, and gave vent to her grief

DIR. s. received the explanatory

Lawrence was released. In the morn

The Wrong Note.

A lady of rank, says London Truth,
had received the honor of an invitation
to dinner from the Princess Mary of
Teck, for n day when she was engaged
to dine with an old friend. She wrote
two letters to the Princess in her
sweetest manner, acknowledging the
honor, ETC.; another to her friend. be-
ginning: "Such q bore, dear Fat
Mary has invited me to dinner on our
day, and, of course, I must CO." To
her horror she learned by the next post
that her friend had the letter for the
Princess in her envelope. The mischief
was done, and she went prepared to
throw herself at the feet of her royal
hostess, when the Princess met her with
open hands and smiling face as she said /:
"Fat Mary is very pleased to see you.
and hopes you won't find her a bore

The Great Bell of Moscow.

The Gar Kolokol, Or King of Bells, :"
at Moscow, is much the largest bell in
the world. 1t weighs no less than 1913
tons, and is twenty-one feetin height and
in diameter. In the tower of John the
Great, at Moscow, is the most stipend
GUS bell now in regular use, but this
weighs only sixty-four tons. The next
largestis in Pekin, ffty-one tons then

Minister, ten and three-quarters tons !;
"Great Tom," at Lincoln, five and a

pended in tower of vast strength in
1874, but three years afterward it fell
down during fire, and piece six feet
high and three feet wide was broken
from it. It remained sunk in the earth
until 1887, when the Emperor Nicholas
had it raised and placed upon pedestal
of granite. This giant communication of
sound has since been consecrated as O
chapel, and religious services are held in
it.-BdDtjst Teacher.

Care of the Eyes.

The most serious trouble with reid
ers and writer's is, as might be predicted
from their peculiar work, weak eyes.
We find that engravers, watch-makers
and all others who use their eyes con-
stantly in their work take extra care to
preserve them by getting the best pcs
sible light by day and using the best ar
tificial light at night. The great army
of readers and writer's are careless, and
most of them, sooner or later, Pay the
penalty by being forced to give up night
work entirely-some to give up reading,
except at short intervals, under the hes,
conditions. and now and then one losea
the eyesight entirely after it is too late
to take warning. Greek, German, short.
hand, or any other characters differing
from the plain Roman type, make Il
double danger The custom is to laugh
at all warnings till pain or weakness
makes attention imperative, and then 1t
is often too late to avert the mischief.
Few comprehend the vast number we
fippantly call million, but it takes q
million letters to make up fair-sized
volume of 500 pages, forty lines to the
page, fifty letters to the line. A reader
makes an easy day of reading this, but
his eyes must go over thousand thou
sand letters We can do no better SER
vice to readers and writer's than to call
attention to this great danger of failing
to take the best of care, which is none
too good, for the eyes. Every tyro
knows that he should have the best
light for reading, should shun carefully
early dawn or twilight, should always
stop at the first signs of pain or weari-
ness, etc. Most know that the glare
from a plain, white surface is very try
ing, and that the eye is relieved by a
tint. Recent experiments in Germany
are reported to indicate some yellowish
tint as easiest for the eyes. Dark pa
pers, inks that show little color on first
writing, faint lead-pencil marks that can
be read only by straining the eyes, are
fruitful sources of mischief. So is bad
writing. The bad paper, ink and pen
ellis most of our readers will have too
good sense to use. The intelligent pub
lie should so clearly show its disgust al
the fine type, solid matter, poor paper
and poor printing which some publish
ers and most periodicals. except the
UeSt, are Suuty oI OHerlnS, tnit1 10 puD-
Usher would dare attempt the expezi-
ment second time. The modern news
paper, which SO many read in the cars
and by gaslight, is one of the most
fruitful causes Of poor eyesight. We cam
not control this at once, but owe it as
duty to protest stoutly against such
printed matter, and, if possible, to re-
fuse to buy or tolerate it in any form
more than absolutely necessary. Print
ed matter ought to be loaded. A size
smaller type with this extra space be-
tween the lines is easier to read than the
size larger set without it. AS the loaded
smaller size viii contain fully as much
matter to given space, there is no rea-
son why publishers should not adopt it,
because it is quite as cheap.

A E,iIy of the Valley.

One day our dog Towser was lynn in

as not to friten the bee, and the bee

larger seas-are now definable in the
southern hemisphere, in which, as is the
case also with the earth, water seems to
be much more widely spread than in the
northern hemisphere. There is, for ex-
ample, southern sea exceedingly like
the Baltic in shape and there is another
and still more remarkable sea, now de-
fined by the observations of many as
tronomers--one near the equator, a long
struggling arm, twisting almost in the
shape of an S laid on its back, from east
to west, at least 1000 miles in length
and 400 in breadth.

RAGAEs I'm THE WILDERNESS
pY ]. w. uATToN.

Alone and frend,ess; doomed to die,
With never a soul to hear thy cry;
Nor food, nor drink, nor shade Of tree;
Banished how cruel it seems to thee!
Death-meaning and heartless the decree:
Depart, forever, the child and theel
Perish of want, and die unblessed,
With the beauteous boy pressed to thy breast!
Unseen the hand that leads the way
From the homo Of plenty, far away,
To world Of sands, all parched and bare,
To die of hunger and despair!
Hunger and thirst, and the maddening moan
OF the dying boy, so plaintive grown
That Hagar fees, she knows not where,
Crazed with hunger and daZed with care.
But mothers love, grown strong in death,
Constrains her heart, while life and breath
Still animates the form Of one
The beauteous form of her darling son.
Only bow-shot could she go
From sight and sound of Ishmael's woe;
There sat she down and prayed to die
How sad and piteous was the cry!
Her eyes, bedimmed with scalding tears,
Are ope'd at last; she listens, hears
voice speaking, as from afar:
"Behoid well of water near!
Rise, drink, refresh thyself and child,
And journey yet little while,
For will make, in future years,
Prince Of him thy heart reveres-
father of Kings shall Ishmael be,
And source of endless JOY to thee"

The Planet Mars.

Professor Lockyer is of the opinion
that human life on the planet Mars may
be very much like human life on the
earth; the light cannot be SO bright, but
the organs of sight may be so much
more susceptible as to make the vision
quite as good. The heat is probably
less, as the polar SHOWS certainly extend
further, but by no means less in proper
ton to the lessened power of the solar
rays. The professor agrees with others,
that several remarkable seas--including
inland seas, some of them connected and
some not connected by straits with still

Our young readers will perhaps be
surprised to learn that man is not the
only being that keeps mich cattle as
food supply. The mich cattle of the
ants are small insects, which draw their
food from the sap of plants, and give to
the ants q sweet and nutritious milk,
which they either eject for the ants or
allow them to abstract from them. In
stinct causes them to regard ants as
masters, and instinct cauAea tie ants to
protect them. Each herd Of ants has its
flock of cattle, and it is said often indi-
vidual ants have individual hocks Of
these insect cattle, which are scrupu-
lousy protected.

ONE SOFT MAY DAY,
BY ILDEGERTE.

Kissed by a rose, one soft May day,
lily in the garden blowing
Kissed by rose, one soft May day,
lily in the garden growing.
Be my bride, oh! lily fair,
BE my bride, my pale white queen
The lily smiled with radiant air,
Smiling sweetly and serene.
Kissed by rose, one soft May day,
lily crushed was dying
Kissed by rose, one soft May day,
fragile fragment lying.
My bride Is a corpse, the rose had said,
And the afr was full of its breath;
My fair white queen is lying dead,
And /, the cause OF her death.
A red, red rose, one soft May day,
Was missed from the garden flowers;
The daisy sighed for the bright red ray,
So beautiful in the morning hours.
The flowers came where the red rose lay,
Dead and purple, ON the lily's breast,
And sad were the hearts, that soft May day
The red, red rose had gone TO its rest.

THERE can be no late sleeping of
Lowell. There is a general ringing in
the factory bells at AS in the morning.
This is for the boarding house keepers,
who are expected to arise at this time to
prepare the morning meal. One hour
later the bells ring again, this time to
call the operatives to breakfast and in
fifty minutes more the ringing is re-
peated to summon to work.

He rose up in the morning-then
He broke her lovely head;
He was the very worst of men,
That patient lady said.
SPASM II.
She bought pound of arsenic, and
She put it in his beer,
He said he could not understand
What made him feel so queer.
SPASN III.
He died that night; his awful curse
Upon her head was heard;
But she declared she felt no worse
And married Major Third!
