AS thief in the night, Deaths messenger flies,
And perched on the dark cliffs treacherous edge
Silently waits, meath the lowering skies,
Til 1is victinrapprOaches the perious ledge.
Away in tt e tlarkness-nto the gloom
He goes from the bed of a suffering child;
He heeds not, he hears not, the tale of his DOOM
AS told by the ran-drops pattering wild.
Down, down the dark precpice, down to the grave,
Unknown to- his dear ones, at night he hath sped;
No presence to warn hm-no power to save
And the storm sings requiem round his death-bed
Y ct not all unknoyn does he take the dread fall,
A shout werdly floats on the dull wintry air;
A loved oneis watching who hears the sad call
A farewell to earth-a deep wall of despair
She listens again. but the call cometh not,
No sound but the rain-drops beating the ground;
While the Angel flies swift away from the spot,
And Peace spreads her white wings gently around.
She turns from the wndow-the storm RACES on
And the night-wnds still DER the precipce roll
Oh Thou the Great Comforter, come with the dawn,
And speak the sweet message of peace to her soul,
May each wntry breeze that is waited along,
By the treacherous cliff where her loved one went
down,
Bear on its wings the sweet burden Of song
"Ye bearing my cro5s-I will give thee
crown p

Marriage.

Marriage undoubtedly brings to the
parties most interested an increased
amount of liberty 1t also means the
extension and the emphasis Of the
opportunities which are at the disposal
Of two persons to lie comfortable or
uncomfortable, happy or miserable as
the case may be. A readiustment OF
the law. in the sense which radicalism
is said to contemplate, could not pro-
duce any conpensating good. But,
after ALL 1t is not merely the fear of
scandal, but the humiliation of pub
fishing to the world that two people
have hopelessly bungled existence,
which keeps a number of men and
women, otherwise qualified for it, out
of the divorce court. Once make that
tribunal easier Of access than it is now,
or provide fresh machinery which will
accomplish all that this tribunal does
and positive premium would be
placed upon matrimonial feuds of the
most irreconcilable, and as they would
often prove, of the most flimsy kind,
Some husbands and wives continue
lovers throughout their lives. Others
are mutually enraptured at first and
mutually bored afterward. Others, ON
the contrary, failing during the early
years of their partnership to accommo-
date themselves TO each other, agree
admirably alittle later; but in no one
of these instances can it he supposed
that any limitation Of the matrimonial
contract would tend to improve its
terms while it was i'll legal existence
For the majority of husbands and
wives wedlock is a social and moral
discipline. The qualities which it de
velops in either are exactly those that
are usefnl and necessary i'll other rela.
tons Of life. This is not the romantic
view to take of marriage, but it is
sound and practical one, and 50 long a,
marriage remains q good working in
stitution no attempt to curtail it or tC
shear it of any of its honors is likely tC
be made, or if made to prove effectual

AJananese Railway.

Our fellow passengers are well worth
studying. First come the men OF ous-
mess going to Yokohama, as is theiI
daily custom. These men are dressed
in foreign clothes, and many OF them
understand some foreign language
English or German. They are mostly
an intelligent looking group OF men
Besides these somewhat fOreignlzed
natives, we have the real genuine
native article, with nothing foreign
about him excepting his hat. Hats are
very generally worn, unless 1t is RAINY
day, when they are left at home ana
the wearer goes bareheaded. The Japs
are peculiar. On a cold. rainy day
they 60 about with their skirts caught
up to their waists, and the water all
streaming down their bare legs. Thelr
dress must be saved, even at the cost
OF some personal inconvenience. In
the car we can see this native dress; q
loose robe with no buttons, but folded
over the breast and fastened with
sash. This is the dress of the men as
well as of the women. Some OF the
dresses are very rich indeed, beng
made of beautiful silk. One-hali IS
longer than the other, which allows
for being pulled up above the sash, and
then hanging down in front making
a pouch. This is the pocket where
nearly everything is carried. At the
bottoms of the large, square sleeve
there are pockets also. Suspended
from the sash is a little box and i
leather wallet Sometimes these arti-
eles sre exquisite and very costly. The
box contains the tobucco pipe and the
wallet contains the tobacco. The box
IS frequently made of ivory or bronze
finely worked. japanese tobacco Is
very mild. The average American
would dlsdain to use it, Mild as It Is
but little is consumed ut one time
The whole amount of tobacco imbibcc
would not be equal to one puff OF

Moral courage requires more fiber

how who could keep from swearing,
and was not afraid to stand by his col

profane men, was little hero.
A lad in Boston, rather small for his
wears. worked in an office as errand boy
for four gentlemen who did business
there. One day the gentlemen were
chatting him little about being so
small and said to him
You never will amount to much :;
YOU can never do much business; you
are too small" The little fellow
looked at them.

what he could do that none of them
were able to do.

the little fellow. There We're some
bushes on four manly faces, and there
seemed to be very little anxiety for
further information on this point.
