Educated Indians,

A crucial test of the Indian work is.
of course, the return of the students to
their Indian homes. The change from
school life in the east to agency or camp
life is, of course, immense, and if they
give way under the strain AMI return to
their blankets it should not mean in any
fairness that the Indian is in capable ofciv-
ilization. But, fair or not, the question.
remains, "Does the work pay ?" TWEEN

TTE KINGS ADVENT.

Thus spake the heaven-sent messenger
To II rs daughter; and she heard,
But laughed 70. scorn the warning word
For what was such king to her?

Swift he ma lie answer haughdly,
&C mes in no mean disguise Ike this;
But with royal reunue,
And with the pCmp ana honor due
Alike to my degree and his.
Go to! ye prophets that ioreteI
A sovereign 50 contemplate"
And lions daughter, fair and proud,
Smiled with 4 bitter smile to hear
The ignorant tumUlt of the crowd,
AS the meek king foretold drew near.
Fit monaIoh fer a rabbe r0Ut,"
She spoke, disdainfully, LET them shout
Hosanras n0w-full soon their cry
Will ring as loudly, cruelty"
Came one amidst the gathering throng
Whose heart had suffered cruel wrong:
Whom want and woe had driven to sin,
Until the tale of life had been
For many IN evil year the same
Dull round Of wretchedness and shame.
Men gibed at her: and women drew
Their garments closer, lest the stain
OF some unCeanliness might remain
From chance touch. But pressing through,
Needless Of both. she reached His side,
Ard fell upon her knees, and cried.
ssArt Thou the King in truth? King!
Have mercy ON a wretcled thing,
Too vile to venture any plea
Save its exceeding misery"
Men seoffed at her despairing cries;
And women flashed their virtuOus scorn
At the base creature, woman-bOrn,
Who sdamed their sex. b It the Kings eyes
OF an her wofui plight took heed
With searching glance. Then tenderly,

t'sn5 whose c5meth unto me,
My grace shall answer to his need.
Go, and fear nothing"
And she went,
Lost in a strange and sweet content
That took no thought of day or night,
Or henceforth any murmurs spent
Upon their dearth of worlds delight,
For joy exceeding all the rest
Was in her sense of peace possessed.
But Zion's daughter, proud and fair,
Still waits TO see her King advance
With fitting pomp and circumstance
OF waving banners, and the blare
OF uumpets or the startled air;
Waits with a vain desire as yet
While she whose bitter need was met
With His compassion; whose disgrace
Was blottea out with her despair
Dwels IN the sunshine of His face,
And knows tbe King came then and there.

Street Filtration.

So much has recently been written
IN condemnation of the ''masher" that
few words on the other side of the
question will not be amss. While
not designing to present the masher as
a saint, we would sugges. that the
burden Of the responsibility of street
flirtations be placed upon the
shoulders of those who justly should
bear it. Brazem as the male street
flirt appears, he will not often speak
to woman who offers him no en-
enlargement. 1t would be poor sort
of fun for him to invite attention all
day long if his invitation met with no
response. 1t is manifest that the
girls are to blame for his presence on
the street. Let them lay aside their
dashlng boldness of manner, which
they often loollshly imagine denotes
independence, but which is as dan
gerous as it is unseemly. Such de-
meanor provokes remarks from men
and women, which would make the
ears OF the average maiden tingle
with indignation, could she but hear
them. There is no doubt that many
girls are lacking in that modesty
which would entitle them to consider
alton. With these the street tlirta
ton, frequently resulting in acquaint-
ance, is great frolic; but these very
girls would soon assume manner not
in accord with their character could
they see themselves as others see
them. Very few girls wish to be con-
sldered fast, yet they can by certain
recklessness of conduct while in pub
lie places easily earn the appellation.
They may not be guilty of any crime,
but they will as certainly lose the re-
spect Of every one whose respect is
worth having as though they were.
This particularly applies to women
who have reached or passed the age
of 20. What may be readily over
looked in the schoolgirl of Is will
not be forgiven in her sister of ma
ture years. In no other country are
unmarried women allowed so much
freedom as in our own. In view of
the disastrous results Of this custom, il
would seem to be the part of wisdom
to adopt the old world fashion OF
chaperones. If, however. the girls
and young women can be made to un-
derstand the use Of liberty, and will
themselves accordingly, the

Thackeray's Gentleman.

What is it to be a gentleman? |,
Is to be honest, to be gentle, to be
generous, to be brave, to be wise, and
possessing these qualities, to exercise
them in the most graceful, outward
manner. Ought not gentleman to
be a loyal son, true husband, an hon
est father? Ought not his life to be
decent, his bills to be paid, his tastes
to be high and elegant, his aims i'll life
to be lofty and noble? Perhaps a
gentleman is rarer man than most
OF US think for. Which of us can
point out many such in his circle
men whose aims are generous.
whose truth is constant in its kind,
but elevated in its degree; whose
want OF meanness makes them simple,
who can look the world honestly in
the face with an equal manly svmpa.

know a hundred whose coats are very
we'll made, and a score who have ex-
ce!ient manners, and one or two hap

ton; but of gentlemen: how many?
