FATHER WAS RIGHT.

ooh, dearn' said Emma, and she
looked disguised.
81 think as much" said Laura, and
she pouted. 1t was all because in q
Lowell y wood they had come miles to
find there was great picnic party,
filling the boats on the little river, fill
ing the swings, using the croquet
grounds, using all the nice coy sitting
places under spreading trees, using the
tables and benches; swarming every
where. Now, the fact was that Emma
and Laura wanted that grove for their
picnic, and the people who We're to at
tend it were mother and father, and
baby Joe, and their two selves.
1t was quite an event to the Law
renee family; for father rarely had q
day to spare.
"Never mind.' said the mother, try
ing to smile away the frown on her
daughters faces. Our party is so
small, we can find pleasant PLACE
elsewhere"
But the girls didn't believe it, and
they spoiled two miles of that ride in
fretting. They found a lovely old tree,
and smaller ones near it, and a stream
OF clear water trickling down from
somewhere
"Oh oh' they both said. "Father,
do, please, stop here! Mamma, only
see what a lovely place"
But the father had been looking at
the sky some minutes, and he shook his
head.
at wouldn't be safe girls. There is
a heavy storm coming this way, | think.
We must drive on and reach place of
shelter. 1t wouldn't be good for little
Joe to get a wetting."
Then you should have heard Emma
and Laura, they grew so wise. They
were sure it wasn't going to rain a drop
to-day; ard when their arguments failed
TO convince their father, and when he
further said that they must try to reach
the village, and eat their lunch at q
hotel, then the misery of these unhappy
girls was great. The idea," they said,
''of waiting all the summer to have a
picnic, and then eat their dinner out of
a basket in miserable little country
hotel! They were not going to do it. y
Then l regret to tell you that they
sulked and refused to do more than to
glance stiily at certain pretty sights
which mother pointed out on the way.
Arrived at the hotel they wanted no
dinner, not they; and they tossed their
heads and looked injured.
They would go for walk; and it was
by their fathers command that they
took an umbrella. However, it was
just a dash of rain lasting long enough
to wet the girls.
IF we had been under the big tree
where we wanted to stop" they said,
there couldn't q drop have touched
III"
Much more of this kind they said; and
when the horse was rested, they started
homeward; father, sorry for his daugh-
tiers disappointment, remarked that, if

HIS BIRTHDAY,

What birthday present could I send
This summer morn, to you my friend?
What birthday gift would be in tune
With earth and Heaven this day in June?
Shall send flowers? A crimson rose
Upon the bush you planted grows.
! pick it now; | kiss its face,
And send it to your dwelIing-place.
Shall send books? A volume waits
For you, of life this side the gates.
] press its leaves, so clean and fair,
And send it, darling, where you are.
Shall ! send words of tenderness?
Or loving deedY or fond caress
Such as YOU always gave to me,
The birthday morns that used TO be2
IF l could all these tokens send
From earth to Heaven, beloved friend,
Would yOu look up with heaming eye,
And thank me as in days gone by?
All, yesl Your faithful love, know,
Eternally will stronger grow,
And though Heavens fuiness be complete
A gift from me would still be sweet.
@'They reckon not by natal days
Up there" doubling whisper says.
And ii is so; but, am sure,
Your love forever will endure.
Therefore, in this familiar place,
Lightened by your remembered face,
j can with your own soul commune,
And send my thoughts through skies of
June
To you. My eyes to yours lift
My fdithftaln,sS, your birthday gift.

the woods were not too wet, they would
stop awhile. !
TOO wet'' said Emma. "Why il
hasn't rained twenty drops"
mo, indeed" said Laura But as
they rode along, the way grew muddier
and muddier, and it was evident that in
this direction the shower had been
heavy.
AS last they came again to the great
old tree: but what do you think had
happened? Why, the lightning had
been there, and torn the branches, and
uproOied part of the heavy trunk, and
ruined the beautiful tree.
''Oh, myn' said the mother.
That would have been certain death
to any one under its branches, y said the
father; while the girls looked at each
other, and said not word.
That evening. white they were maxi
ing ready for the night, Emma said!
''Father knew best, it seems" .
Eyes, indeed" said Laura :
What a pity that they spoiled much
of their day by not remembering that
before!-PGfSy.

Breaking Bridges by Vibration.

In answer to the question: sis it true
that the marching of body OF soldiers,
in regular military step, has been known
to cause the falling of bridge:?" the
Manufacturer says:
The statement is substantiated by the
strongest kind of evidence We believe
it is rule observed by marching arm
les, when they cross a bridge, to stop
the music, break step and open column,
lest the measured cadence of CON
densed body of men should cause the
bridge to vibrate so greatly as to en-
danger its stability or cause it to fall.
Numerous instances of accidents caused
by the neglect of this rule are recorded.
For example, the Broughton bridge,
near Manchester, gave way beneath the
measured tread of only sixty men, who
were marching over it. A chain bridge
crossing the River Dordogne near Bor-
deaux, about the year 1850, gave way
from a similar cause. The terrible dis
aster which befell battalion of French
troops few years since, while in the
act of crossing the suspension bridge at
Anglers, in France, is one of the most
convincing evidences of the extreme
danger from the cause here named.
The facts, as recorded, are as follows:
Reiterated warnings were given the
troops to break into sections, as is usu-
ally done. But the rain was falling
heavily, and in the hurry of
the moment the orders were dis
regarded. The bridge, which was only
twelve years old, and which had been
repaired the year before at cost of
$1,000, fell and 2S0 dead, bodies were
found, besides many who were
wounded" A bridge or similar struc-
ture, may be crowded with people going
and coming, with cavalry or with cattle,
with infinitely less danger than with
the far less weight of a body of men
going over it in regular marching order.
In the latter case the structure is set
into vibration, which every step that is
taken adds to, until the swing becomes
so violent that it may overcome its
powers of resistance and cause it to give
way at its weakest point. In the
former case a multitude of vibrations
are set up in the structure, but being
irregular-that is, non-synchronous-
one is neutraliZed by another and no
effect is produced. 1t has often been
noted as singular fact that large trees
have been rfprooted by wind-storms of
no unusual violence which have with
stood much more violent gales. An
explanation of this, which appears to us
to be very plausible, may be found in
the facts above detailed. The wind in
powerful gales frequently comes in
gusts, which cause the tree to swing,
and if these gusts happen to be so timed
as to coincide with the natural swing
of the tree each successive impulse
swings it more powerfully until at
length it is uprooted by a wind which,
ha6 it blown steadily, would have done
it no damage.
