"Look there" and with this the
organist points dramatically to the
register elbow cramped by the coat,
and to the bridge, which, moved from
its supports, had been coming down
upon the trackers at every Jump, and
had simultaneously sounded at least six
tones in the sub-bass.
You don't o-say-that
-" gasped the astonished bass.

quickly rearranged the bridge.

Nothing but my reputation, guess

fourth verse of the hymn, and there's

the organist darted out and slid upon
his bench, and was soon taking all tho
wind that the weary man could give
him.
When the service was ended, and the
choir looked in TO jeer and ask foolish
questions, the fagged-out man was
seen hanging limp and exhausted over
the bellows handle, too weak to more
than family sigh and foebly wave one
of his blistered hands in the direction
of his tormentors. And they left him
there, grinning good naturediy at their
mockery, and looking like damp rag
hung over nail to dry. f. De

Glove in cottage" and the cottage
may be humble, but it is commonly
better adapted to the growth of true,

the needs of our great cities are sup
posed to demand. A "mess table"
is doubtless proper for the Cflicers OF a
regiment, or n group of monks. The

steamer Of course can properly dine
together; but for young married peo-
pie, it is best that they should live to-

world; that they should be all in all,
under God, 10 each other; that the
young wife should not be pursued by
calculations rs TO how she looks TO a
hundred spectators; that he and she
should plan together, wisely adap,

that ii is comparatively easy TO go up,

the Burtis opera house, Davenport. will
be presented the great romantic and pic
turesque play Burr Oaks. This is the
second season for this play on the road

ular favor. The play is something after
the style of the Silver King. though diff,
ferent in dialogue and action. Mr.. George
H. hurry, the energetic advance agent of
Burr Oaks" has arranged with the
ferry company TO make a
trip after the performance or
each evening next week, so that Rock
Island people may have chance to wits
ness this great play, Now here is a cons
venient chance for all our people to go
over to Davenport enjoy themselves and
return on the ferry at the close of the
performance. 1t isn't often that such an
opportunity is offered to witness such a
fine show rs Burr Oaks, and our people
should not let this chance slip through
their fingers. Remember the dates next
Monday and Tuesday evenings. Our ex'
changes are full of good things for BUR-
Oaks. The Baltimore Sun says:
Burr Oaks, a play full of purity anG
force, full of beauty and tenderness; {
play for woman to laugh through tear:
into happiness at Its broad humanity
and for man to applaud for its heroic
struggle with adverse fate.

here below viii offerup thanks to God for

anything she could find No particular
objection could be found to the move

was sufficient to bring rosy hued

had seen that fair young girl 60 down

spread outover the floor like batch of

in getting herself together and reefiug
her garments, so that she once more wore
the semblance of woman, she retired to

she had lost anything besides dozen hail
pins
