Why?
BY NORA PERRY.

Sometimes how near You are,
Sometimes how dear you are;
Then, then. so far, SO far,
Like some far star you are.
Sometimes, through you, through you,
see the gray sky blue,
And feel the warmth of May
In the December day.
Sometimes sometimes let
All burdens fall, forget
All cares, and every fear,
In your sweet atmosphere.
Then, then. alas, alasl
Why does it come to pass,
Before. the hour goes by,
Before my dream doth die,
DRIFT and drift away
Out of your light of day,
Out of your warmth and cheer,
Your blessed atmosphere?
Why does it come to pass?
Alas, and still alas
Why doth the world prevail,
Why doth the spirit fail,
And hide itself away
Behind its wall of clay.
Since time began-alasl
Why does it come to pass?

G. G. Colbett shot and killed a handsome
black setter dog belonging to Frederick Fl.
Harris last Friday evening The shooting was
done in the public streets, and Corbett's excuse
was that the dog was chasing his chickens.
The dog was registered animal and as such
had some rights in the highway, but What
right Mr.. Corbett's chickens had there their
owner did not stop to think. When Mr.. Cor
belts chickens are chased he should try his old
plan of collecting IS per chicken from the OWL
er of the dog. At that price it would pay him
30 have the entire contents of his coop slaugh-
tered The person who paid So for one of his
dog-gone chickens was afterwards informed
that in all probability he had disbursed about
five times as much as it was worth 1t might
perhaps be well for the authorities to bring Mr..
Corbett to book for discharging firearms in the
street. 1t is not exactly healthy for the COM
munity to have him fooling around the high
ways with loaded shotguns.-New London

Once upon a time, and not very long ago
either, reverend gentleman entered the Bal
timore and Ohio railway cars with three pieces
of baggage, which he deposited in three differ
ent seats, and then seated himself in the fourth.
Many passengers entered and looked inquiring-
ly at those seats, but in vain. By and by he
took ont Bible and began to read. A youth
sitting near asked to borrow the Bible, aud af.
ter making some commonplace remarks upon
the excellent type and good binding, suddenly
said, in tone which could be heard by all
around: 81 will reao a few passages from
Paul's epistle to James: BE ye kind and
obliging to one another. Thou shouldst not oe-
cupy more than three or four seats when thou
ridest in the cars for if thou doest this thing
thou greatly discommodest thy beloved breth-
rem and sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ Good
by, sir, get out at this station" And the
young man of joking sarcasm disappeared.
But he left huge and long-continued tumult
of merriment in that car.
