Wanted=--A Little Girl.
Where have they gone to. the little girls,
With natural manners and natural curls,
Who love their dollies and like their toys,
And talk of something besides the boys. .
Little old women in plenty md,
Mature in manners and old of mind,
Little old flrts who talk of their beaux,
And vie with each other in stylish clothes.
Little old bellies who at nine and ten
Are sick of pleasure and tired of men,
Weary of novels, balls and fun,
And ind no new thing under the sun.
Once in the beautiful long ago
Some dear little children used toknow,
Girls who were merry as lambs at play,
And laughed and rollfcked the liyclong day.
They thought not of the style of clothes,
They never imagined that boys were beaux
Other girls brothers and mates were they,
Splendid fellows to help them play.
Where have they gone to? If you sec
Onc of them anywhere send her to INC
1 would give a medal of purest gold
To one of those dear little girls of old,
With IN innocent heart and an open smile.
Who knows not the meaning of fiirt OF style

There was 4 man in CIR town,
And he was wondr0us wise,
He bought . Waterbury Watch,
And thought it was prize.
But when he found it was run down,
With all his Wit and brain,
lie hit upon this mighty plan,
To wind it up again.
Whene'er lie took his Ticker out,
To see the time of day,
lie gave the stem a dozen turns
In an off-haud kind OF way.
And so this man of oar town,
Who is so wondrouS wise,
Has learned to wind his Watch with

The Cost Of Sickness.

think, then, that we can not escape
from the reasons to believe that we lose
in England and Wales, every year. in
consequence of sickness, 10000, 600
weeks work; or, say, as much work as
10000, 900 healthy people would do in a
week.
The number is not easily grasped by
the mind. 1t is equal to about one
fortieth part of the work done in each
year by the whole population between
fifteen and sixty-live years old. Or,
try to think of it in money. Rather
more than half of it is lost by those
whom the Registrar-General names the
domestic, the agricultural, and the in
dustrial classes. These are more than
1.500, 600 in number. and they lose
about 100000 weeks; say, for easy
reckoning at one pound week; and
here is loss of Ell, 100000 sterling
from what should be the annual wealth
of the country. For the other classes,
who arc estimated as losing the other
5000, 900 weeks work, it would be
hard and unfair to make guess in any
known coin; for these include our great
merchants, our judges and lawyers, and
medical men, our statesmen and chief
legislators; they include our poets and
writers of all kinds, musicians, painters
and philosophers; and our princes, who
certainly do more for the wealth and
welfare of the country than can be told
