In Little Rock, Arkansas, recently, a
Young man, whom it would no doubt be
well to call James, fell in love, or thought
be well to call Susan. Frs2tical nants
both of them. The fondness of James was
returned. James told Susan that he loved
her, and Susan told James that she loved
him. James asked Susan to marry him,
and Susan said that she would. The young
man had spent sleepless nights IN contem-
plating the prize he was attempting to win,
but when he found that the pole of attract
IONS had knocked the ''persimmon' of
Susans affections he ceased tossing the
cover at night and slept soundly. Finally
he mused: Il don't love the girl. l wish

myself to her. 1t would almost break her

he might kill himself. l don't know what

grave troubles affected alike the mind of
each. Several nights ago the affecuonate
parties sat beside each other.

that man should marry woman when

BREAD UPON THE WATER.

Mid the losses and the gains
Mid the pleasures and the pains,
And the hop 'ngs and the fears,
And the restlessness Of years,
We repeat this promise DER
We believe it more and more
Bread upon The lnaters cast
shall BE- gathered al tie last.
Gold and silver, like the sands,
viii keep slipping through our hands !;
Jewels cleaning like spark,
Viii be hidden in the dark,
sun and moon and stars will pale,
But these words viii never fail:
Bread upon the lodte1-s cast
Shall be gathered al the last
Soon, Ike dus', TO you and me,
VIII our earthly treasures be,
But the loving word and deed
To another in his need,
They viii unforgotten be,
They viii live eterna,ly-
Bread upon the ,rdteys cast
Shall Be gathered al hae last.
Fast the momeE,s slip away.
Soon our mortal powers decay,
Low and lower sinks the sun,
What We do must soon be done;
Then Whist rapture, If We hear
Thousand voices ringing clear
Bread upon the JodterS cast
Shall be gathered at the last.

by a neat fence of black iron, with posts
