asking Brown if it really were he
to groan again.
If it be truly John Rrowns

another groan was heard.
Encouraged now, the miners
tried to enter the chamber, but the
air was so foul that they conld not
breathe. They had to send back
for selves, with which to fan the
air and create a current. AS soon
as it became possible for them to
breathe in the chamber they en-
tered and felt aoout in the dark, as
they dared not take lamp into
such an atmosphere for fear Of an
explosion. g.o.l
There they found poor old John
Brown, as cold as a corpse, but still
alive. For twentythree days and
nigItshe had been slut up there
without food, and in au atmosphere
of foul gases, and yet he was not
dead The miners sent a messenger
up the shaft to bring a doctor, and
while vaiIingthey stripped off their
clothes and lay doYn with their
nakel backs against Browns body,
in order to give him warmth.
To their establishment he called
out: Give us a drink If a real
corpse had spoken the miners could
not have been more surprised
They gave him a little water, and
then he said;

GIVlHG AND SEQUEATHING.

How many parents, having failed
inthe uncertain struggle for money,
lament that they have nothing to
leave to the children Their ideas
OF bequests are limited to what can
be conveyed by a last will and tesla
ment. So stubbornly does a false
standard maintain itself against the
wisdom Of the age, when it appeals
to a man on the side Of his selfish
ness, his ambition, or bis power! il
one have no possessions bnt dollars,
the deyiSlDg Of his wealth may be
his most Important affair, as he
draws near the end of life. But
having no money to bestow,g shall
men, therefore conclude that they
will leave nothing behind them? .
Every child is an heir, and his
Inheritance is indefeaslble. First
of all are his memories ofhisparents
aud his home. All! if men and
women could dictate to their law
yers, on paper or parchment, what
memories they shall leave behind
them, how Inherently would the
records read in many cases! But
Memory is q record not open to
amendment or subject to alteration
by human wish or dictation. We
shall be remembered chiefly for
what we are,- happy if there be
even one who will know aud think
upon what we wished and tried to
be. Every day and year, therefore,
adds to the possessions OF our chill
dren and friends in their memories
of us. How inadequate does money
represent one, compared with ones
self The trite truth that it is not
what n man has, but what be is,
that measures him, never seemsless
trite than when one thinks what lie
will be to his friends when he has
been ten years dead.
And so the man who has no prop
erty to devise should not be disap-
pointed nor troubled unduly. Il

honestly and proudly write that,
and then descend to possessions
that are expressed in figures, so
much the better. But there is the
best authority for giving tho pref

And if in his inmost soul the father
feels that, among theunenumerated

ly firm, and loving, how dare he
think that he shall die poor These
are treasures that no heirs quarrel
over, and that require no probate
outside the sanctuary of the heart.
They are veritably laid mp in

old spiritual materialists still keep
men looking beyond the stars as the
place where their possessions lie ?
There are, however, more direct

Which mother eyes looked fondly through,

Peach-tinged, like toes and finger tips;
Two lips Of richer, ripper red

Waiting the mothers watchfnl eye
To train II for the "by snd-by,"

Two wriDkled, bony, bare, brown hands,
Where sea waves kiss the crystal sands,

Two sired, tired feet, all thin and worn
On life's rough rocks, Oft bruised and torn
Two weary feet too weak to go
On life's rough pathway to and fro,
Now as then.
Two fearless eyes close ve.led from Light
Meath soft fringed lids ofpearl-gray white !
Two lovo-lit eyes, deep, vender. true,
No more the mother -soul looks through,

A preeichs, liieless lump Of clay
From which the soul hath passed away;
A loving woman, tender, sweet,
Kisses the face, the hands, the feet,
