Bricklayer and ParsOn.

A Manchester curate, walking along a
street in tho dinner-hour, passed lot of
bricklayers smoking their pipes, and he
heard one of the men say:
"I'd like to be a parson, and have
nowt to do but walk along in black
coat, and carry walking-cane in hand,
and get lot of brass"
There was an approving laugh all
around, whereupon the curate turned
quietly around, and the following con-
versation ensued:
$50 you would like to be a parsons
How much do you get week2''
"Twenty. seven shllllngs.'
"Well am not rich man; but l will
give you twenty-seven shillings, if you
will come with me for a week and
see what my work is like"
The bricklayer did not like the propo-
sal, but his mates told him it was fair
offer, and he was bound to acceptit. So
he reluctantly followed the parson down
an alley.
"Where are you going9" he asked.
"To see sick parishioner," was the
.eply. .
"What is the matter with him.
"Small-pox."
At this the man drew back. His wife
and BARNS had never had the smallpox,
and he was afraid of taking it to them.
my wife and BARNS have never had
the small pox," said the curate. "Come
along"
The man hesitated.
20, but you promised to accompany
me wherever / went, urged the curate.
"And where be you going nextf'
asked the bricklayer.
ITO see poor family huddled in one
room, with the father dead of scarlet-fe-
er in 1t, and themselves all down with it;
and, after that, to see another parishion-
er ill with typhus. And tomorrow there
will be a longer round"
Thereupon, the bricklayer begged to
be let off. Twenty seven shillings would
be poor pay for that kind of work, and
he promised he would never speak
against the parsons archaeological

BABY's THINGS.

Hide the little boots away
Boots wherein your darling's feet
Pattered through the busy day,
Making ell your life complete:
But the feet are still, to-day
Hide the little boots away.
Hide the little cap from sight
There are, now, no baby eyes,
Gladdened by it's tassels bright
Laughing out in gay surprise:
Dear, sweet eyes are closed for aye
Hide the little cap away.
Hide the dainty coat from sight
For he'll scarcely need 1t now,
With his dimple1 arms so white
And this silence DER his brow:
Little empty coat OF gray,
Put it with the cap away.
Hide the precious form from sight
With these other useless things
Lsv It meath the blossoms white,
For he's won his cherub. wings;
And the feet shall never stray,
That are so white and still to-day.

That the great campaign now upon
us will exceed that of 1879, when the
"Go West philosopher" was in the field
and fray, no one DOUBTS. Time works
wonders; but with something's it can
make no change, as the following from

Story Of an Iceberg.

The following wonderful story of the
iceberg comes in connection with the
terrible narrative of Captain Halls ex-
petition in the Polarls:
One more effort was made to reach the
Polar Sea. When that failed, the Polaris
started for home. A few days later Gin
August 1922 she was beset with ice and
dritted to + latitude N degrees and IS
minutes. Here portion of the crew
left her. There seems to be suspicion
that they deserted, but according to
their own story they were employed get
ting provisions out upon the ice, in the
expectation that the ship must go to
pieces in gale, when the ice broke up
and the POlaris was driven from he1
moorlngs and disappeared in the dark
ness. 1t is the wonderful story of the
nineteen persons left on the ice which
the telegraph brought us at the time. For
more than SIX months they drifted south
ward through the Arctic night. Occa
sionally they launched the boats they
had with them, and tried to pull toward
the Greenland coast, but they were
driven back to the foe. A portion of their
provisions had been saved, and they eked
them out by killing occasionally a seal
or few birds. Snow huts gave them q
little shelter. The fat of the seals fed
the fires and lights. The Ice upon which
they foated was five miles in circumter
ence when they parted from the ship OF
the 18th of October. 1t was reduced in
April to little fragment of twenty yards
in diameter, when they were picked ur
by the Tigress, forty miles from the coast
of Labrador. How terrible this icy voy
age had been we may imagine by {
glance at the map. They were driver
from ship far up Bafin's Bay, some
where near the entrance of Lancaster
sound. They were rescued we'll out il
the open ocean. about the latitude o
Liverpool. Of the fate OF the Polaris, il
which were Captain Buddington, chie
navigating officer, and thirteen others
nothing yet is known.
