was 10. This sounds as if Miss Douce
Tmeau was rather tomboyish; but she
did these things 50 grayely and quite
ly that somehow no one thought of re-
proving her for her gymnastic feats.
'Let Douce alone" said her father.
"She has wary eye, and q firm,
strong grasp, and she'll never come
to harm. 1t is not a ladylike amuse-
ment for a young girl to climb trees,
but she is not q tomboy, and does not
climb them because she is Of a rough,
masculine nature. It's, perhaps, an
eccentricity, and in her case l accept
it when | should not in some other
children. Besides, it strengthens her
muscles and makes her hardy"
One fine September morning, Mrs.
Tureau astonished them all by insist
ing upon walking to town with her
husband
"Ihe walk is too long foryou Mary"
( he demonstrated.
''No, indeed, she answered, 4 feel
equal to it, and l prefer the walk to rid

Jane, and be quite rested when you're
turn in the evening. The cook Dora)
too, wants to 60 to town to spend the
day and night with her sister"
GAS You please; but If Dora is going
who will stay at home with the chill
dren? We shall not get back until
after dusk, you know"
'You'ro not afraid to stay here with
the children, Douce, are you?" asked
her mother.
"Afraid? Why, mamma, I did not
suppose YOU thought me such a foolish
coward. What can harm u.s."
Of course it did not seem as if there
could be anything to harm them in
that quite place; 50, after an early
breakfast, the children walked part Of
the way to town with their parents.
Douce stood and looked after them as
they left, with a strange heut-sinking
she aftcrward said.
II thought it was because mamma
was always at home," she said. The
house would seem 50 lonely without
her. But then, / was so glad to see
her able to walk again that I could
not understand my depressed feeling.
There was a deal Of work to be done
that day. The house was to be clean
ed, churuing done, and Douce thought
she would surprise her father and
mother by a nice tea when they re-
turned Assisted by her sister Alice,

Picked-up dinners, with tea and jam
are things not to be despised by chill

party, to the table.

Uncle Sans Men.

Uncle Sans letter-carrlers are a
hard-working set of men, and are
liable to contract rheumatism because
of the constant exposure to which
they are subjected. Calling at the
postoffice the reporter had pleasant
conversation with Mr.. j. FL. Mattern,
one of the most popular aud clever
letter-carriers in Indianapolis. Mr..
Mattern said that, while i'll the army
during the civil war, he sprained one
of his ankles, which was always worse
in the spring during the period Of the
rapid changes in the weather. He did
not find much relief from the several
remedies he applied ButAtwo years
ago he hit upon st. Jacobs Oil, and
experienced wonderful relief from Its
use. Several applications of the Great
German Remedy relieved him entirely.
The reporter talked with others among
the letter-carriers and found that the
Great German Remedy was popular in
the postoffice. They use it for sore
feet, rheumatism, etc, and praise it
highly.-Indianapolis (Ind.) Neaos.

When you feel badly, and have
pains here and there in your body
that you don't know how to account
for it is the most foolish policy in the
world to take the advice Of people who
say: "Oh, there's nothing the matter
with you Let yourself alone and you
will come out all right" These folks
know nothing about it, and may be
trlfing with your life. You may
have Kidney or Liver trouble. Send

but men go on killing one another
now as they did two thousand years
ago.
War is barbarism. The prize-fght
is brutal. The struggle between man
and man for the mastery in muscle. or
skill in killing. is nothing more nor
less than a fight between two savages
or two tigers. There is no reason in
settling dispute by fighting about it.
It determines nothing as to the right
or wrong Of the matter. A duel is
not only sinful in the sight of God.
bnt it is irrational in the eyes of all
right men. College hazing is wickeder

1t is great shame that the press
does so much to encourage the fight

They buy the first newspaper that
gives them the sickening details of the
fight, and read them with zest, talk o1

And In the winds from unsunned spaces blown

Ny feet to paths unknown.
Thou who hast made my home of life so pleasant,
n Lave not Its tenant when It's walls decay;
U Love divine Helper ever present,
Be Thou my strength and stay
Be near me when all else Is from me drifting,
EARTH sky homes pictures. days of shade and shine
And kindly faces to my own uplifting
The love which answers mine.

No street of shining gold.

And hot h forgiven through Thy Astounding Grace

Unto my resting place.
Some humble door among Thy many mansions,
some shetering shade where sin and striving cease
And flows orever through heavens green expansions
The river of Thy peace.

And 6nd last. beneath Thy trees of healing,

The fields of Paradise:
And graudy pinnaclpd above,
The hills eternal rise:
Tnere. far outstrrtched. the ofsglass
Lies girt with FURNISHED sands;
There. toOs the many mansions are
The house not made with hands.
Just over there the gates
OF shining pearl unfold,
Where. echoing through. the glad new song
For years on years has rolled:
Within, the city Beautiful
In radiant splendors meet;
Its street. of finest gold unmarked
By tread of wearied feet.
Just over there II lies,
With but a veil between
Its giories and my tear-dimmed eyes,
The real land. though unseen.
just over there will be know,
The joy unmixtd with main;
The sp.stless robe the unstained soul,
The victory and fhe gain.

GOD oMNIpoTENT.

Loi God is here! From clouds above.
And from the crags on which they res
From placid evenings robes Of love,
Outspreading in the crimson west;
And from the river, DER whose banks
Mysterious shapes of dew appear;
From elms which stand in stately ranks,
One sound Is swelling-"God Is herel"
I hear it in the insects wing:
hear it in the thunder peaiing;
hear it when the wild birds sing;
hear it where the breeze is stealing.
From painless forests, thick with shade,
And from the corn fields rustling near.
From every tree, in every glade,
The voice is uttered-"God is herel"
Whilst evening hangs her lamps above,
And dewy fragrance floats around,
That voice still speaks in tones of love-
And every spot seems holy ground.
IT'S written ON the moons pale face,
Recumbent in her lucid sphere,
And conntless stars the inscription trace
In fiery ietters--"God is here!'
When midnight bathes the world in sleep,
Soothes weary hearts, aud shuts the roses
The voice is heard in accents deep,
Midst intervals of calm repose;
While round the easements lattice pane
The leaves and tendrils shake for fear,
The awful words resouud again
Amid the darkness-"God is here"
Here, when the heart with Joy runs DER.
And fancy her wild pastmes taking;
Here. when the world delights no more,
And the bowed heart with grief is breaking;
Here, when amidst the circle gay,
OF friends long tried, beloved, sincere:
Here in the solitary way.
God never leaves us-"Gou is here!"
o Christian let thy faith arise
In every time, in every placed
The maker of The earth and skies
Is strengthening thee to run the race.
Bid fears depart: subdue thy grief:
flushed be the signs, and wiped the tear;
Thy God is near to give relief,
Aud speaks in mercy: Il am here!"
Morris tribune., 1882-10-12
A CH1LD,s LETTER.
Turning old letters over,

Turning old letters over,
As the twilight begins to fall,
The gem of them all discover,
In q weak, insignificant scrawl:
With clumsy and artless unfolding
OF infantile thoughts, half a-whirl,
And the poor blotted page still holding
single soft, collorless curl.
Uneven, misspelt, but how tender
And winsome: Dear papa" I read,
"Dolly's broke so never can mend her,
And pussy's made mammals hand bleed.
Printed words intermixed with the written,
But how sweet! And they hasten to say,
'Nursy's tooth aches, I've feared my mittea,
Nothing's good now, with papa away"
Only childish prattle on paper,
But how freshly hit off each event,
Formed of this or that fancy caper
That made her existence content;
And now on the paper she'll drop
Round snip of her prettiest curl.
Knowing we'll it will gladden. moor papa,
Because from his own little "gurl."
All. again and again do kissit,
With her image still fresh In my mind!
And that artless chld's love, how l miss it,
Since no more with my life 'tis combined,
Save as Death, the light-footed purloiner,
BY love is run down in the end,
And as Faith still abides to rejoin her
In the heights she was first TO ascend!
Back, back, with the rest, return you,
Dear missive. more treasured than all!
And again in the past / inurn You,
As the shadows, deepening, fall.
Once more in the casket SET you,
And turning the key depart.
No fear that I'll slight or forget you,S
Your words are engraved on my heart.
