ling, if ] cannot save you I will die with
you,' I clasped her in my arms, and was
just preparing to plunge into the river
when her dear voice said:
"sWait!'
GAS she spoke she pointed at large
cottonwood tree, which was drifting rap
idly down stream at an angle with the
current, and nearly on us.
ssThis only seemed to me reason for
greater haste, particularly as our sink
ing craft had been caught in an eddy of
the stream and was almost stationary.
Again I started to plunge in, and again
she restrained me. She told me after

the log would save us.

"The tree came with such rapidity
that I feared we would be crushed.
But, before it reached us, the long
branches began to drag on the bottom,
and it came more slowly. Soon it struck
the wagon-bed, and bore us slowly, but
steadily, toward the bank. In few
moments more it grounded, and leaped
out with Ellen and made my way up the
bank.
"Not a second too soon. Scarcely
were we out on dry land when the tree
became dislodged and drifted down the
river, carrying our boat with it. This
went barely fifty yards before it sank,
just as we turned at the top of the bank
to get last glimpse Of it.
"We made our way to house a few
miles distant, where we obtained dry
clothing. I hired horse and went
after my team. The mules were well
trained and had kept the road, until
passing house, where the owner knew
them, they had been stopped The peo-
pie were just organizing search for me
when I rode up.

In Athens the ideal man must have

CONFINEMENT.
BY GEORGE MACDONALD.

Tam content In triumph's tone
My song let people know!
And many Almighty man, with throne
And scepter, is not so;
And If he is, why then I cry,
The man is just the same as I.
The Mogul's gold, the Sultan's show,
The hero's bliss, who, vexed
To find no more Of the world below,
Raised his eyes moonwsrd next
would not have it; things like that
Are only fit for laughing at.
My motto is-content with this;
Gold--rank-I prize not such.
That which have, my measure is;
Wise men desire not much,
Men wish and wish and have their will,
And wish again-as hungry still.
And gold or honor, though it rings,
Is but as brittle glass;
The fuctuating course Of things
Shows that as 1t doth pass,
Oft changing many into none,
And giving honor Q short run.
To do right, to be good and clear,
Is more than rank or gold;
Then are thou always Of good cheer,
And blisses hast untold;
Then art thou with thyself at one,
And, no man hating, fearest none. ..

And many mighty man, with throne
And scepter, is not SO;

STARTING IN THE WORLD.

Many an unwise parent iabors hard
and lives sparingly all his life for the
purpose of leaving enough to give his
children start in this world, as it is
called. Setting a young man afoat with
money left by his relatives is like tying
bladders under the arms of one who cam
not swim ten chances to one he will
lose his bladders and go to the bottom.
Teach him how to swim and he will
never need bladders. Give your child
sound education and you have done en-
ough for him. See to it that his morals
are pure, his mind cultivated, and his
whole nature made subservient to laws
which govern man, and you have given
him what will be of more value than the
wealth of the Indies.

where there was an old clearing on the
bank of the stream, thickly studded
with stumps. The river had eaten into
the bank, until some of these stood
quite at the waters edge; though
't low water considerably above the
stream.
81 knew we must be nearly level with
them now. I thought that here we
would be swept near the bank, and de-
termined to make my last trial there.
Should it fail I would take Ellen in my
arms, and make desperate effort to
reach the bank.
"Soon we came in sight of the
clearing, and I prepared again to throw.
But the current had changed since l
had been there, and the stream swept US
out of reach of the bank. My rope was
long enough; but heavy at any time, its
weight was doubled by its being wet,
and my utmost efforts could not throw
it far enough. Il
81 threw time and again, nearly
throwing it over stump sometimes, but
always falling little short. We soon
ran by the clearing, and but one chance
seemed left to US. The wagon-bed was
fast filling and would soon sink, whether
we left it or not.
