Signs That Seldom Fail.

Solomon said. many centuries ago:
"Even a child is known by his doings.
whether his work be pure and whether
it be right"
When 1 see little boy slow to 60 to
school. and glad of every excuse to neg
lect his books, I think it is q sign that
he will be Ounce.
When l see q boy in haste to spend
every penny as soon as he gets it. ]
think it is sign that he will be aspend-
thrift.
When see a boy boarding up his
pennies. and unwilling to part with
them for any good purpose. l think il
is sign that he will be miser.
When l see a boy or girl looking out
for 'snumber one," and disliking to
share good things with others. l think
it is sign that the child will grow up a
selfish person.
When see boys and girls often quar-:
reling, think it is q sign that they will
be violent and hateful men and women.
When see a child obedient to bis
parents, think it is sign of great tn
ture blessing from Almighty Cod
Kind Words.

The Future Of Canada.

The question of the future of Canada
is largely 3 question Of population.
Canada is not at present in q position
to assume the risks and burdens of in
dependence, nor is the necessity of such
q change greatly felt. When Canada
has q population of twelve or fifteen
millions Of people. if the necessity
arose, it might then be in position TO
spend such sums on defense as might
give it a reasonable hope OF MAINTAIN
mo its position as an independent State:
II It could count on still having thrown
around it the @gis of the parent coun-
try, the problem of the means OF de-
tense would be more, easily solved.
Until, however. Canada reaches such q
position that it could not easily b
stricken down by any power, it would
be madness to assume the burdens Of
independence.-& Johns Telegraph

xEET1NG OF THE BIRDS

Tie blustry wind had called them all:
The birds arrived, the large, the small.
The owl, of course. was chosen Judge:
He stared around, but didn't bulge.
The robins, jays and meadowlArkS
Got ND to make few remarks:
They said the time had come to 80,
Red leaves and gold dew to and no.
The sparrows then grew spiteful quite.
They thought 1t much too soon for flight;
But bluebirds longed for bluer skies,
And wrens thought this was very wise.
The blackbirds said their time was up:
The berries gone, where should they sup?
The catbirds said they quite agreed.
Twas time the warning they should heed.
The owl this question put: Say 'Ay,'
Those who intend away to hy?
All but the sparrOws vote to 60:

"'Tis carried" said the owl: "adieur'

-Itwas proposed to abolish the charity
known as Watts Poor Travellers House,
at Rochester, England, made famous
bv Dickens in his "Seven Poor Travel
ers." one of the most popular OF his
Christmas stories. Recently the trus.
tees appointed an inspector to investi-
gate the characterised the applicants for
and recipients of the charity, and his
report has just been presented to the
trustees. The meeting was private
one, but it may be stated that the in
spector reported that during the nine
ty-two evenings covered by the investi-
CATION 1858 men applied for admission,
and sos were actually admitted, OF
whom the great majority were wayfar-
ing mechanics, answering to the de-
scription of the founder Of the bequest
viz: "Poor travellers" The general
feeling of the trustees appears to be in
favor Of the retention of the charity, the
chairman expressing his conviction that
the Poor Travellers House was answer
ing the purpose of its founder.

Moved BY q Tale Of Misfortune.

A sharp game was. some time ago,
played upon cashier of one OF the
leading banks in this city, the facts Of
which have but recently come to light.
One morning in early spring, with the
full influence of budding and blossom
ing nature upon him, the cashier had
taken his seat behind his desk, when he
was approached by an attorney at-law,
whose countenance was sorrowful and
warned the experienced eye OF the
financier of an early application for a
loan. He thereupon hardened his heart
and made up his mind to say no. Aft
er greeting him in detected and sub
dued manner. the attorney began to
make known his business. With tears
in his eyes the lawyer told him that the
death of q near relative, involving
heavy expense, and failure of remit
tances, as well as poor-paying clients,
had reduced him to the necessity Of
taking step which only dire ill-fortune
could reconcile him to. He wished a
loan of $500 for few days only, and
he would offer as security a box OF
family plate and sundry heirlooms
which had been handed down from
generation to generation. He produced
receipt signed by the Secretary OF
the Safe Deposit Company, showing
payment of storage fees for nearly a
year in advance on box containing
plate of the value of $4,000. The
lawyer said to the cashier as he
wiped his fearful eyes, 81 put very
low value on this. for am too poor to
pay high storage rates. never
thought that I would come to this, but
must. 1t is of no use. I'll pay the
loan in ten days, though I am driven to
sell my wife's diamonds The cashier
pitied the high-bred sorrow and felt for
the scion of q noble house in misfOr-
tune, and then. thinking of the box Of
family plate. concluded to make the
loan. The key of the box was handed
over to him and the borrower, with
many profuse expressions of gratitude
walked out with the money in his
pocket. The note was placed in the
drawer and forgotten. A few months
elapsed and the bank changed its OH
GERS, and the incoming manager.
among other assets, discovered the
note with the family plate collateral.
He at once sent for the box, and. open
ing it, discovered that its valuable con-
tents consisted of eighteen volumes Of
the Patent Office reports, about twenty
old newspapers, q plated caster and
cake basket, all of which would sell fol
about four dollars. The revelation
created much profanity on the part o.
the new management and q good joke
at the expense of the cashier, who had
been SO nicely done for. Of course, a
the borrower was q man of no property
nothing could be done except to bea1
the loss as philosophically as possible
But the cashier. who has now retired
has never heard the end of it. and il
the bank bad loan is spoken Of as .
