THE LITTLE PEOPLE

My little maiden Of four years old
Ne myth. but n genuine child ia she.
With her bronze brown eyes and her curls Of
gold
Came, quite In disgust. one day to me.
Rubbing her shoulder with rosy palm,
AS the loathsOme touch seemed yet to thrill her.
She cried: so. mother; found on my arm,
A horrible, crawling caterpillar"
And with mischieveus smile she could scarcely
smother,
Yot glance in its daring half awed a nd shy.
She added: "While they were about 1t. mother,
wish they'd just finished the butterfly"
They were words to the thought of the soul,
that turns
From the coarser form Of apart tial growth.
KepIoachIng the infinite patience that yearns
With an unknown glory to crown them both.
All, look thou largely, with lenient eyes.
On whatso beside thee may creep and cling,
For the possible glory that und1ries
The passing phase OF the meanest thing.
What if Gods great angels, whose waiting love
Beholdcth our pitIful life below
From the holy height of their heaven above.
Couldn't bear with the worm till the wings
should grow.

"uGHT-M0RE LIGHT"

"Light, more light" for the night comes on,
And the day ID growing dim;
on may hear the knell of the convent bell,
And the chsunt Of the vesper hymn
And slowly now on the solemn air
Falls the measured tones OF the monks low

Behold how the last red sunbeams rest
On the old gray turrets high.
How they light up the leaves Of the ivy green,
And the oak that towers nigh;
While down by the foot of the convent wall
The deeper and darker shadows fall.
Even thus is it over this blessed werld;
The shadows of grief and pain
Are resting down in their darkness now
On the homes and the hearts of men,
Aud they pray TO Cod in their great DESPAIR
For the cheerful light Of risen star
Little children are asking Il crust of f'bread-
Little children so wan and pale
While the Weiher lies OH the threshold dead
And heareih not their wall
So they lay them down in their agony
And asking for bread 18th their white lips die
There is much OF sorrow and misery
In the pathway Of life below
Many moment of grief and pain
Many an age Of woe;
And but here and there do the yie.ms hres [

But here and there are the glimpses of blue.
"Light more light - Oh God /! to Thee
Offer We now this prayer;
Let the morning dawn in its brightness now
Over this world OF care;
Let the Spirit move Us IL did of old,
And the cold, dark surge be backward rolled

EDITOR INrELLIGENCER - Inexpen-
sive and pretty costumes are made OF
pale ecru bunting, trimmed with rib
bon bows. OF course there arc other
shades, but delicate ecru tints are pre-
ferred, net only because they are es-
pecially adapted to summer time, but
because they harmonize with anything
and everything. A notable advantage
accrues, furthermore, from the TACT that
the character Of bunting costume is SO
easily changed by means OF change of
the accessories just mentioned, and one
can be grave or coquettlsh upon occa-
sisn. simply in consequence of displace-
ments easily effected. The figured
goods of the day are likewise popular
finish for bunting costumes, but such
combination, it is manifest, must be per-
manent. Bunting, nevertheless, is now
closely rivalled by the new figured chal-
lies OF the day, and as these are in everv
Imaginable variety of pattern, their use
is correspondingly extended. The time
is now close at hand, too, when, even
in northern latitudes, we shall seek re-
lief by the adoption of cool wash COS
tunes. For morning wear, gingham is
much sought alter, and nothing more
refined can be imagined than neat
gingham suit, with parasol to match
Fine percales and lawns are also in IA
ver. and here, likewise, the parasol
can be made to correspond. In white,
soft qualities Of null are trimmed with
Hamburg edgiug or Breton lace, and
especially novel suits are of null, in
delicate tints OF blue, pink or yellow

HEAVIER THE GROSS

Heavier the cross. the nearer heaven;
No cross without, no God within
Death. judgment from the heart are driven
Amid the worlds false glare and din.
Oh, happy he With all his loss,
Whom God harh set beneath the cross.
Heavier the cross, the better chrstian;
This Is the tOuchstone God applies.
How many garden would be wasting
Unwet by showers from weeping eyes!
The gold by fire is purified;
~ The christian is by trouble tried.
Heavier the cross, the stronger faith;
The loaded palm strikes deeper root;
rbe vine-juice sweetly issueth
When men have pressed the CLUSTERED fruit:
And courage grows where dangers come
Like pearls beneath the salt sea-t foam.
Heavier the cross, the hearticr prayer;
The bruised herbs most fragrant
If sky and wind were always fair,
The sailor would not watch the star,
And Davia's psalms had ne 'er been sung
II grief his heart had never wrung.
Heavier the cross. the more aspiring;
From wales we climb to mountain crest;
The pilgrim OF the desert firing
Longs for the Canaan OF his rest.
The dove has here rest in sight,
And to the ark she wings her flight.
Heavier the cross. the easier dying;
Death is a friendlier face to See;
To life's decay one bids defying,
From llfe'S distress one then is free.
The cress sublimely lifts our faith
10 Him who trluMphed over death.
Thou crucltied, the cross carry,
The longer, may It dearer be;
And lest FAINT while here tarry.
lnplant Thou such u heart in me
That 1aith, hope. love may flourish there
I'LL Tor the Gro So my crown wear.

THE BABy's DIMPlE.

Over the cradle the mother hung
Softly Grooming u siumber song;
And these were the simple words she sung
All the evening long:
Check or chin. or knuckle or knee,
Where shall the bubY's dimple be I?
Where shall the angels finger rest
When he comes down to the baby's nests
Where shall the angels touch remain
When he awakens my babe again ?''
Still as she bent and sang SO low,
murmur into her music broke;
And she paused to hear, for she could but know
The baby's angel spoke:
:Cheek or chin, knuckle or knee,
Where shall the baby's dImple be
Where shall my finger fall and rest
When Come down to the baby's nestf
Where shall my hnger's touch remain
When awake your babe again ?''
Silent the mother sat and dwelt
Long in the sweet delay Of choice;
And then by her baby = side abe knelt,
And sang with a pleasant voice:
Not on the limb. U, angel, dear,
For the charm with youth will disappear;
Not on the cheek shall the dimpe be,
For the harboring smile will fade and Zee
But touch thou the chin with Impress deep
And my babe the angels seal shall keep. -
