Hints TO GIELs.-Give your best
sympathy. There is no greater human
power than the tenderness of woman.
II you can minister to some one in sick

put flower in some poor home, you
have done thing you will always be
glad to think of. You will be remem
bered, and a woman asks no grander
monument than to live in hearts.
Not far from my home was the plain

never let the roses out of bis hand, Miss.

A reader who is disciple of "the

out WEAKNESS or impotence to the end.
AS a specimen 1 will quote u single

A UNIQUE VERDICT.

Der of the coroners are men who

leaving town for home after dark,
pretty well loaded with dead-shot
whiskey, lay down on the road for
a nap, and failed to wake up in the
morning. When he was found
frozen, the Coroner was sent for.
When he came he was told that
he must hold an inquest, He pro-
cured twelve Jurymen, and pro-

lay.
He walked all around the dead
man, turned him over, raised a
foot and let it fall, then a hand,
then turned him over again, face
up.
Assuming a dignifed position,
he cleared his throat and said:
''In the name of the state of

God! Bob Durham, Curfenner."

BABY Is DEAD.

''Baby is dead." Three little
words passing along the line, cop
led somewhere and soon forgotten.
But, after all was quiet again, l
leaned my head upon my hand and
fell into deep reverie of all that
those words may mean.
Somewhere-a dainty form, still
and cold, unclasped by mothers
arms tonight. Eyes that yester-
day were bright and blue as skies
of June dropped tonight beneath
white lids that no voice can ever
raise again
Two soft hands, whose rose leaf
fingers were want to wander low
ingly around mothers neck and
face, loosely holding white buds,
qnietly folded in coftined rest.
Soft lips, yesterday ripping with
laughter, sweet as woodland brook
falls, gray as trill of forest bird, to-
night unresponsive to kiss or cali
of love.
A silent home-the patter Of
baby feet forever hushed--a cradle
bed impressed. Little shoes halt
dainty garments-shoulder
knots of blue to match those eyes
Of yesterday, folded with aching
heart away.
A tiny mound, snow-covered in
some quiet graveyard.
A mothers cropping touch in I'M
easy slumber, for the fair head that
shall never rest upon her bosom.
The low sob, the bitter tear, as
broken dreams awake to sad real
ity. The hopes of future years
wrecked, like fair ships that sud-
denly 60 down in sight Of land.
The watching of other babies,
dimpled, laughing, strong, and
this one gone! The present agony
Of grief, the future emptiness Of
heart, all held in these three little
words, "Baby is dead.''
Indeed, it is we'll that we can
copy and soon forget the words SO
freighted with woe to those who
receive and send them. And yet
it cannot harm us now and then to
give tender thought to those
whom our careless pen stroke is
preparing such a weight.

TREMOR OF GREAT ORA
TORS.

1t is curious fact that great or
ators seldom fail to be nervous
with apprehension, when about to
make an important speech. Luth-
er, to his last years, trembled when
he entered the pulpit. The same
is true Of Robert Hall. Mr.. Cough
confesses that he is always in ire
NOR in coming before an audience.
Many Of the leaders of the house
of commons in England have Civ
en- similar testimony.
Canning said he could always
tell in advance when he was about
to make one Of his best speeches
by a chill running through him,
caused by fear Of failure. Lord
Derby, the father Of the present
Earl, when young man, was one
Of the most impressive speakers
in Parliment. He was known as
the "Prince Rupert of debate"
and seemed SO selfpossessed as to
be incapable Of embarrassment.
But he said
"When [ am going to speak,
my throat and lips are as dry as
those of a man who is going to be
hanged"
Tierney, whom Lord Macaulay
calls one of the most fluent debat-
ers ever known, said he never rose
in parliment without feeling his
knees knock together. 1t is one
Of the compensations of nature,
that the nervous temperament
which occasions the trembling is
also one of the causes of oratorical
success.

A LIVELY FUNERAL.

Michael Callahan, of Chicago,
died OF smallpox, and his friends
gave him a good big funeral. The
railroad companies would not con,
vey the remains to the cemetery,
so the body was sent by wagon,
and the friends went out by train.
While the bearers were conveying
the body into the cemetery, one
got tired and called upon a man
to help. The man refused on the
ground that he was mourner, and
exempt from the draft. The bear
er knocked him down, a friend of
the mouner knocked the bearer
down, the other bearers dropped
the late lamented and went for the
mourners, and finally the whole
party were fighting with picks,
shovels and fists. The Times, a
wicked paper published in Chic
ago, wound up It's account Of the
fight by saying, at should be
credited to the memory Of the
corpse that it took no part
in the fight" Funerals can be
made enjoyable if people go at it
right.

Del, in order to Tighten family
burdens betook herself to the city

One day, while passing an hour in

DR.. Leon, one of the most highly

who was much taken with the
young lady's ingenious but sad
dened appearance, and exerted
himself exceedingly in order to
obtain an easier position for her.
Time has amply justified the good
opinion the doctor formed of her
and he has by due process oflaw,
adopted her as his daughter, his
