She popped off this question so sud-
denly that Johnny thought for mo-
ment that somebody had thrown tor
pedo at him, and nearly fell off the barrel.
But he jerked himself back again and
said-he was truthful little fellow
"I'm afraid l don't
"Well, then, what can you expect from
us?" asked Big Gray Hen.
Please, NAM said Johnny, "I don t
expect anything. And 1 should never
have thought Of finding fault with you
had it not been for Little Gray Hen
Little Gray Hen, indeedl' repeated
Speckled Hen scornfully. at seems to
me the smaller hens are the bigger they
think themselves.
Is that meant for me2" said Bantam
Hen, ruffling her feathers.
Pray don't stop to quarrel, you two, -
begged Brown Hen; "but come on and
let's all go and see this stuck-up thing
who thinks herself so much above us"
"Cluck, cluck cluck, cluck cluck,
cluck She's not so high but that she'll
come down when" began Big Gray
Hen.
When?" asked the other hens.
When she's hungry" said Big Gray
Hen. I've known = cluck, cluck !
cluck, cluck cluck, cluck la good many
airs put on just after breakfast put off
Just before dinner"
After which wise remark away they
all started in a great hurry for Daisy's
stall; but they had scarcely got there
when PAMELA, Johnny's grown-up sister,
came out of the house with pan full OF
corn and called loudly, "Here, chick,
chick, chick, chick, chick
At the very first sound of her voice the
hens and chickens turned about again in
greater hurry than ever; but as fast as
they ran-and they ran as fast as they
could-they none of them reached the
hen-yard as soon as Little Gray Hen.
i 1t was pleasant enough living on
Daisy's head, she said to Johnny as she
went to roost that night, but you see
there was nothing to eat up there. And
think, after all, it is best for hen to
try to get along with her own relations.

any thing about it, grandmother went
out into the lane with some bread, and
called Mrs. O'Brien to the window.
Bliss We for your kind heart, cried
Mrs. O'Brien. "Shure, it's hungry
enough we are, an me wild me two hands
SO full of worruk that can't git time to
make bread, let alone havin no yeast nor
-four. Bliss yer
Grandmother put the bread down in
its paper bag outside Mrs. O'Brien 8
gate, and after she had gone Ted OBrien
came and got it. Mrs. Perry was much
alarmed when she heard what was done,
but grandma insisted on repeating her
errand of mercy every day or two, for
she could not bear to think that the sick
people were suffering for lack of food
Grandma" said Ethel, during one of
those anxious days when the disease was
spreading through the neighborhood,
and no one knew who would be seized
upon next; "what was that verse that
you said when you first heard about the
o Briens having the smallpox ?"
&C A thousand shall fail at thy side,
and ten thousand at thy right hand but
1t shall not come nigh thee, repeated
grandma.
Is that true?' asked Ethel.
Yes" said grandma; I'll show it to
you in the Bible
And so grandma took her big red
covered Bible, that was never very far
away, put on her spectacles, and showed
Ethel the seventh verse Of the ninety
first Psalm.
Look at this next verse too, Ethel, "
said she. Because thou hast made the
Lord, which is my refuge, even the Most
High, thy habitation there shall no evil
befall thee neither shall any plague
come nigh thy dwelling
Why, then, it's all true, said Ethel,
confidently. 1--WE needn't worry any
more about the smallpox. 1 know we
won't get it"
And so days passed, and bad news
came from one and another house near
by that had been visited by the dreadful
disease. Ethel used to read those verses
again and again, and pray that they
might prove true to them. And the
promise was fulfilled, for though many
died during that sad summer yet Ethel's
home was excepted.
" 1 shall always believe that Psalm, "
said Ethel afterwards e" for I've proved
it, and know it is true. = Watchn1an.

Children Column.
Children's Church.

The church bells for service are ringing,
The parents gone forth on their way,
And here on the door. step are sitting
Three golden haired children at play.
The darlings, untiring and restless,
Are still for the service too SMALL
But yet they would fain be as pious
AS parents and unclesa all.
So each from hymn book is singing
IT'S held upside down, it is true;
Their sweet roguish voices are ringing
As if every number they knew.
But what they are singing they know not /;
Each sings in different tone.
Sing on, little children your voices
Will reach to the Heavenly Throne;
For yonder your angels are standing,
Who sing to the Father OF all:
He loves best the sound of His praises
From children, though ever so small.
Sing on How the birds in the garden
Are vying with you in your song,
As, hopping among the young branches,
They twitter on all the day long
Sing on For in faith We are singing,
And that is enough in Gods sight:
A heart like the doves pure and guileless,
Wings early to heaven its fight.
Sing ever We elders sing also
We read, and the words understand;
Yet oft, too, alas we are holding
Our books upside down in the hand.
Sing ever We sing, as is fitting,
From notes written carefully down;
But all from the strife of the brethren
How often has harmony flown
Sing on From our lofty cathedrals
What melodies glorious we hear
What are they "a sweet childish lisping,
A breath in the Mighty Ones ear.

Grandmother's Psalm.
A maui STORY.


Ethel lived out in the country, Just
where broad lane turned off from a
dusty road. In the California winter
the lane would be green again, but Just
now, in the hot summer time, the grass
on either side of the way was dry and
brown.
Behind Ethel's house was barn, and
down the lane a little way was another
little house, where Mrs o Brien lived with
her FIVE children.
One day Ethel went out to play in the
lane. First she climbed into an empty
hay wagon beside the barn, and had a
frolic with the big dog, Bruno. Then
she saw a squirrel farther down the
lane, and ran down near Mrs. O'Brien's
house to watch him.
Suddenly one of the windows in the
house was raised, and Mrs. O'Brien
thrust her head out and shouted:
Shure, an is it blind that ye are,
Ethel Perry Go away wild vel Don t
ye see the SMALLPOX fag?'
What fag?" asked Ethel, looking
around in alarm.
Mrs. O'Brien pointed to the roof, where
swung red cloth.
AN shure, it's my Jimmy what was
took with the SMALLPOX Yesterday
mornin'," said she. Run home to yer
mother, Ethel, darlint, and don't ye be
after comm near the house agin, and
she slammed down the window, and
Ethel ran home as fast as she could.
90, motherl" she said, bursting into
the kitchen; q" Mrs. O'Brien told me to
run home quick. Jimmie's got the small
pox !"
Mrs. Perry turned pale and dropped
the plate she was washing.
The smallpox % said she. 90,
Ethel, have you been to her house,"
No; only playing in the lane, said
Ethel; but she called to me out of the
window, and told me to run home?'
What shall ?" cried Mrs. Perry.
Now, just as likely as not, we shall all
catch that dreadful disease, and some of
us will die"
Don't worry, daughter, said grand
mother, from her seat by the window.
Don't you remember what David said {:
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and
ten thousand at thy right hand; but it
shall not come nigh thee p I think that
promise is just as much for us as for
David"
But Mrs. Perry still looked worried
that afternoon, and called in the doctor
and had all the family vaccinated.
Day after day passed, and still the
O'Briens were sick, and one after an
other were all seized upon by the disease.
Then one day hearse went down the
lane, and the Perrys learned that Jimmy
OBrien was dead
The wind keeps blowing directly
from their house towards ours, said Mrs.
Perry, as she watched the little funeral
procession going by the window "I
wish that miserable family had never
moved into this neighborbood
/ wonder, said grandmother, eff the
poor creatures have enough to eat2'
If they hadn't, said Mrs Perry, mo
one would ever dare to 20 there with
any thing
Well said grandma. cit seems as
though the neighbors might put things
down not far from the house. and call
Mrs. O'Brien to come and get them
Anyway, I cant help worrying for fear
they haven't enough to eat"
So next day, before Mrs. Perry knew

Johnny ran out to the barn one day
1t was lovely day. The sunshine was
as bright as gold, the sky was as blue as
the eyes of baby kittens, and the grass
was as green as grass could be- Johnny
was singing a little song, making it up as
he went along:
Oh, how I wish my motherd bake
A great, enormous 'lasses cake
Bake-bake-
Cake-ca-a-"
when he stopped suddenly and began to
laugh And no wonder for, looking up,
he saw the head of Daisy, the COW, poked
through the bars of her stall, and, stand
ing on it, right between the horns, was
Little Gray Hen.
why, what are you doing up there ?"
asked Johnny.
Little Gray Hen looked thoughtfully
down at him for a moment, and then she
said, "Well, don't mind telling you,
for you are pretty good boy, as boys
go, and you never throw stones at me,
and chase me about, and mock me when
I try to sing, as bad boys do. The fact
is, the hens and chickens in the hen-yard

such a silly clucking, and scratching,

and he began to laugh again as he ran
away to the hen-yard to tell the hens
what he had seen in the barn.
There was barrel turned upside down
in one corner Of the yard, and on this
Johnny climbed, scratching both his
legs on the hoops as he did 50 but,

Hayes WalloWing In Poverty.

Mr.. Rutherford B. Hayes, of Ere,
mont, Ohio, was so very ardent an
admirer OF Mr.. Garfield, that not
outstanding that he was not among
the subscribers TO the fund for the
benefit of Mr.. Garfeld's family, the
Garfield Memorial Association of
Cleveland, the object of which is to
raise $4,000 wherewith to erect
monument over the grave of Gar
field. determined to honor him
with request to be one OF the Ohio
subscribers who would give 81 600
toward the object OF the association.
The gracious privilege OF presenting
the mattea 10 the attention of Mr..
Hayes was accorded to Mr.. J, @.
Covert, who had been q member OF
the Ohio Legislature, and at one
time was writer on the Cleveland
Leader. Mr. Covert unfolded bis

my farming transactions in the Red

declared further that the amount of

In refusing to enter npon pecaniary
obligations beyond his mt ans, even
though the or steful emotions OF his

course, Mr.. Hayes is acting with
praiseworthy sprudence. The fnan

WHY A WEDDING DIDN'T COME
oFF.-A wedding ceremony was
somewhat dampened in town near
Brunswick recently. 1t seems that
the lady was DESTROYS Of having
Wednesday as the wedding day,
while the gentleman in his turn
desired Thursday. The lady, think
ing that the gentleman would, as
usual, give way in the matter,
made all preparations for the
chosen day. The minister came
and the guests began to arrive, but
the bridegroom came not; people
began to wonder at his absence. At
last the clergyman advanced with
his prayer-book, and gave notice
that the parties should step forth,
but to his words only one of the
parties responded; the other was
Safely at home. 1t is needless to
state that the wedding did not
come of that day.-BGth, Maine,
