known to me the presence of my little
six-years old darling, who often came at
that hour to take me home as she said.
Soon we were going hand in hand on the
homeward way.
Now, papa, let's play was poor lit

your hand tight, and you lead me along,
and tell me where to step, and how to

So the merry blue eyes were shut tight,
and we began. Now step up, now
down" and so on till we were safely ar
rived, and the darling was Nesting in my
arms, saying, Wasn't it nice, papa? l
never peeped oncel"
But" said mamma, didn't yon feel
afraid you'd fall, dear?''
With look of trusting love came the
answer:
"Oh, no, mamma 1 had tight hold
on papa's hand, and knew he would
take me safely over the hard places"

Mrs. Cleves herself, and put back on the
upper shelf, so they ceased discussing
their wrongs, and silence soon reigned
throughout the house.
The next morning after breakfast,
Mrs. Cleves stood at the broad shelf and
washed the dishes while little Bertha
wiped them. And Bertha said, ooh,
mamma l had the funniest dream last
night l dreamed that all the dishes in
the pantry were talking and scolding be-
cause l didn't wipe them dry, and some
said they had the catarrh, and others
had the ague and rheumatism and they
wished you would put me to bed some
night after my bath without wiping me,
so 1 should know how they felt. 1t was
so funny 1 shall always remember to
wipe the dishes dry after this
And Mrs. Oleves said, That is right
my dear; if you keep this resolution
your dream will have been very useful
one to us both. -Congregatio'aatsSt.

4" Cheerfully, Cheerfully."

One bright morning little Daisy was
helping her mamma put the room In or
der. The windows were open to let in
the sweet air, and as the little girl stood
a moment by one of them, looking out, a
bird in the cedar sang out, " Cheerfully,
cheerfully." The words were so plainly
sung that Daisy said, ooh, mamma,
do hear that birdie singing cheerfully. "
"Do you think he says cheerfully {? /
said her mother.
1t sounds Just like it, mamma
Well, it is CHEEKY song he sings,
isn't it? He must be happy, don't you
think ?"
Yes, mamma !" and she leaned out
to try and get glimpse of the bird in
the tree. A glancing of bright brown
wings was all she could see through the
thick boughs
Suppose you take his advice, Daisy
to-day, and do everything cheerfully,
said her mamma, after pause.
1t was new thought to Daisy that q
bird should teach her lesson, and she
laughed. But she knew her fault, and
pretty soon, with little sober face, she
/ said
CT will try to do as the birdie says
mamma and all day long she did try
especially if mamma would say cheerful
ly," by way of a reminder. Even littl,
jamie, the baby sister, caught the spirit
and sang "cheerlully, cbeeriully, in bird
like tones and with happy heart.
So the birdie did something beside
sing that lovely morning.-Early De10.

stiiien and hold the engraved portions in
place, and supply the necess AIRY solidity
aud strength. The surplus gold is actual
ly needlss SO far as UTILITY and beauty are
concerned. In JAMES BOS. = PATENT
GOLD WATCH CASES, til is WASTE OF
precious metal is overcome, a nd the SAME
soLIDIrY AND STRENGTH produ ced at from
one.tbrd to one half OF the sual cost OF
solid cases. This process is OF the most
simple nature, as follows: plate OF nickle
composition metal. especially adapted to
the purpose, has two plates of SOLID GOLD
soldered one on each side. The three are
then passed between polished steel rollers,
and the result is strip ofhelyy plated
composition, from which the cases, backs,
centres, bezels, &c., are cut and shaped by
suitable dies and formers. The gold in
these are sufficiently thick to admit OF all
kinds Of chasing. engraving and enamel

until worn perfectly smooth by time aud
use without removing the gold.
