Surely there is no good reason, and yet many will
allow impure blood, weakness of the kidneys,
imperfect digestion, and urinary troubles to un-
dermine and break down their general health,
and carry them to a premature grave. Some seek
relief among mineral poisOns, in pill form, etc.

1t turned out that the young scamps had gone
on the trail of large bear, though they were only
thirteen years old, and their father had often
warned them not to NEEDLE with wild beasts
They began their adventure by hunting the bear
but ended, as often happens in being hunted by
the bear; for Bruin had turned upon them and
chased them 80 hard that they we're fain to drop
the gun and take to a tree.
1t was sycamore Of peculiar shape, sending
forth from It's stem many small but only two large
branches. These two were some thirty feet from
the ground, and stretched almost horizontally In
opposite directions, They were as like each 9TH
er as the twin brothers themselves. Change took
refuge on one Of these, Mango on the other.
The bear hugged the tree till he had climbed
as far as the fork, There he heBita'ed an instant
and then began to creep along the branch which
supported Change. The beast advanced slowly
and gIngerly, sinking his claws into the bark at
every step, and not depending too much upon his
balancing powers
Chango's position was now far from pleasant.
1t was useless to play the trlck-well known to
bear hunters--of enuclng the animal out to point
where the branch would yield beneath is great
weight, for there was no higher branch within

himself from deadly fall-thlrty feet sheer.
Three more steps and the bear would be upon

seized the animal firmly by It's Htumpy tail The
bear turned to punish his rash assailsnt; but, an
cry as he was he turned cautiously. 1t was no

New York, April 16 The Telegrsm's specla

place at Raab, about 67 miles from this city. The
town is built on the river Of the same name, and

years of age, After the body was cut down aud
examined by the physicians life was pronounced

was subjected to an electro galVanic current, and
after few hours sigus Of life were perceptible.

THE FUTURES OCEAN.

stood upon old oceans shore,
And saw the ships go down to SEQ,
And some went forth b. come no more,
And some that had gone on before
Forth to the bouniless sea.
Some went in hope great gain to reap,
Some, freghts to carry DER the main,
So went with an impatient leap,
Some slowly plowed the mighty deep
As though the parting gave them pain.
Thus has my soul oft loved to see
Each human soul stretch wide It's sail
And launching on the futures sea-
Ride grandly DER the great to be
Urged forth by times onsweeplng gale.
Some go to heap up earthly store,
And some to bear another's load.
And all go forth to come no more
Where they have never gone before
Forth on the futures stormy road.
Some go impatient for the years
That shall their joys and sorrow bring,
And some go forth with scalding tears
Loving the past; and filled with fears
Lest they should taste some bitter thing.
But who can tell of all that go
Down TO the futures restless wavesP
How few will calm and quiet know
How many wreck on rocks Of woe,
And sink meath mad and stormy waves?
But If our barks are swift or slow,
And If on roughest seas we roam
God nerve our puny arm to row..
God give us strength to face each foe
And guide us safely to our home.

THE WATER THAT'S PAST.
ONE OF LAWRENCE BARRETTs SONGS IN 1T
MAN o. AIRIIEU

MAN o. AIhLIE."
Listen to the water.mlll
Through the lIvelOng day,
How the clanking Of the wheels
Wear the hours away!
Languldly the autumn wind
Stirs the greenwood leaves;
From the fields the reapers sing,
Binding up the sheaves.
And proverb haunts my mind,
As spell Is cast
"The mill viii never grind
With the water that has passed."
Take the lesson to thyselE
Loving heart and true;
Golden years are fleetlng by,
Youth Is passing too:
Learn to make the most of life,
Lose no happy day;
Time Will never bring thee back
Chances swept away
Leave no tender word unsald:
Love while life shall last
1.-THE mill will never grind
With the water that has passed."
Work while yet the daylight shines,
Man Of strength and will;
Never does the streamlet glide
Useless by the mill
Walt not till to.morrows sun
Beams upon the way;
All that thou canst call thy own
Lies In thy to day.
Power, Intellect, and health
May not, cannot last;
"The mill will never grind
With the water that has passed."
Oh, the wasted hours OF life,
That have drllted by;
Oh, the good we might have done,
Lost without a sigh.
Love that we might once have saved
By q single word;
Thoughts conceived, but never penned,
Perishing unheard.
Take the proverb to thine heart,
Take oh, hold 1t fastl-
1.-THE mill will never grind
With the water that has passed.
