A Saviour Stands By.

A stornl-tossed ship on the Southern Sea
Was driven before the wind,
And the pillows danced in their fiendish glee.
While the rifted rocks they climbed.
The proud ship stood like aknight at bay
When faced by his foemans steel,
Then parried the waves and bounded away
Till the sunbeams lit her keel.
She scared like bird on the swelling tide,
And then came the deafening shock;
She had fought the fight with peerless pride,
But sank on the surf-bound rock.
tattered flag from the mizzen-top.
A boom from the signal gun,
Now bade ship on her course to stop,
And straight for the wreck to run.
The captain stood for the treacherous coast,
But ii bafied his skill to try.
He did his all, it was his most,
To stand for the WI ecked ones by.
He shouted high DER the pillows roar,
''Quck, quick, all is done!
I'll wait the freight of the boats you lower,
B ut | cannot near you come.
Now bearing on DER battling
Were the freighted lifeboats seen,
While the captains heart for each one
New life from the dying scene.
They climbed the side of the waiting ship,
And safe o'er her deck were found;
And the words ''Sta1d BYE from the captains lips
Re-echoed their welcome sound.
Now, sinner, know, like ship at sea
Is the life you daily lead;
And the pillows of sin are surrounding thee
While guilt is its written creed.
Though ye proudly stand with knightly air.
And laugh at its demon call,
The sin-fend seeks with miser's
Whatee to his lot may fall.
1t breathes on the world its Upas breath,
And poisons the clustered cell;
The lisping child and the aged at death
Are hushed by its venomed SPELL
Though cast adrift on the shores of sin,
Andleft on the rocks to die,
The Saviours voice DER the billow's din
Is echong 81 am by!''

Missing,

Missing-so many are missing,
The old as well as the young,
The poor and the rich together,
The weak alike with the strong.
Missing-our loved ones wander,
We never know how or where,
And pass from our sights as surely,
AS smoke fades into the air.
Missing-a toddling baby
Is lost in the whirl of the street,
And never devotion can follow
The tracks of the infant feet.
Missipg-a bright young maiden
Has wandered, and where is the clue?
Where are the last years roses?
Where is the morning dew?
Missing-a wild-eyed woman
Is lost in the hear of the town;
Oh, is it the icy river,
Or worse, that is holding her down?
Missing man 1t may be,
A citizen famed and we'll known,
Who sinks in the human ocean
As sinks in the pool stone.
Missing-our cares and riches
So vainly are used or spent,
We knew that the loved ones left us,
And knew not whittier they went.
Missing-at day time or night time,
And under the stars of the sun;
They vanish out of our knowledge
AS sands from an hour glass run.

Eulalie Morton never came to Chess

"What fool | was ~ she cried.
Mr.. Chessington, however. much
as he liked and admired Lillian, new
er asked her to marry him.
"When 1 was widowed once, it was
forever" he said.
And Lillian never coveted the prize
of his heart; perhaps because she

A SENATORIAL STAMP-COL-
LECTOR.
organizations

Charles Sumner was one of Amer
ica S greatest statesmen, and / found
him to be one of the kindest men in
the world. He was an ideal Amerl-
can gentleman, was always polite to
every one, and | never heard him ut
ter cross or hasty word. He had
an extensive correspondence and re-
ceived letters from all parts of the
globe. At one time, while | was
page, l had mania for gathering
stamps, and as those on many of hls
letters were very rare, asked the
senator if he would kindly put the
envelopes in his desk, so that could
get them, instead of tearing and
throwing them upon the floor. He
said he would save them for me with
pleasure, and, sure enough, the next
day he came to the senate with a
large collar box in his hand. He
put this in the drawer of his desk,
and whenever he opened an envelope
with foreign stamp attached, he
would tear off the stamp and deposit
it in the box. Several weeks after
ward he called me to him and hand
ed me the box, filed with the choic-
est and most curious collection, say
ing: "Now, if you will empty the
hox, I viii fill it again for you." And
he was true to his word. / have met
hundreds of eminent men in my life;
none, however, more prominent or
with more cares to burden or distract
their thoughts than this grand sena-
tor from Massachusetts,; yet l think
few of them would, upder similar
circumstances, have gone to so much
trouble merely to humor the whim of
a boy.-St. Nicholas.

markable woman died recently in Be-
mares, India. She was Anna, widow of
General James Kennedy, of the Ben
gal cavalry. Her life set at defiance
all orthodox medical theories, for
though sc years of age, she never
left the plains in India. going to the
hills for her health only on one occa-
sion. She lived to see no less. than
176 lineal descendants, of whom 12S
survive her. She was married at the
age of 10. and had Is children, 80
grandchildren, 73 great-grandehif-
dren, and D great-great-grandchil-
dren. Besides military officers of in
ferior rank, her father, husband, two
sons, one son-in-law and four grand
sons were generals in the army. She
lost her husband al the age of 80, af-
ter SO years of married life. For
nearly half century Mrs. Kennedy
has been the centre of society at Be-
mares, where she accomplished the
! difficult task of being equally popu-
lar with Europeans and natives; and
so great was her activity of mind and
body to the very last, that whenever
the Maharajah of Renares called
upon her she never failed, though 80
years his senior, to offer him the use,
of her arm when he left. She re-
tanned her vigorous intellect unim-
paired until the last.-Eschange.

MOLTKE THE SILENT.

MOLTKE THE SILENT.
Moltkc the silent-der Schweiger
AS he is called, is generally consid-
ed the greatest, and is certainly the
most successful of living soldiers.
His achievements ut Koniggratz, Sc
dan and Paris have never been SUI
passed, and compel the admiration of
all competent military critics. ST.
lent, quiet, cold, the very incarnation
of concentrated thought, just as you
see him walking in the streets or
moving in drawing-room when ev-
erybody stands respectfully aside to
let him pass-so he stood on the bat
tle-field, his cold clear eye passing
from one point to the other, and his
cold clear mind weighing the chances
of victory and defeat with the inten-
sity and serenity of mathematician
pondering over the solution of some
grave problem. No one, it is said,
has ever seen Count Moltke excited,
not even at Sedan, where the great
est victory of modern times decided
the fortunes of the two most power
full empires on the continent. His
calmness seems mysterious, almost
awful, and there is something
strangely sad about that silent, lone
ly old man. His wife died some
years ago; he never had child his
nearest relations with the exception
of niece, seem to be kept at dis
tance by him. Who are his compan-
ions and his friends? To whom does
he ever talk in friendly, familiar
way? Nobody has ever been able to
tell me, though l have often inquir-
ed. An old man of eighty-fo he
still appears without fail wherever
duty calls him. He is to be seen at
almost all of the emperor's receptions,
the most striking parsonage near the
throne. But how does the old field
marshall pass his time when free
from duty, when tired of work? No
body pretends to know. Either no.
body penetrates into his intimacy. or
else those who approach him inti-
mately do not speak about it. When
the weather is fine you may see
very tall, thin man, with light yell
lowish hair and sallow, beardless,
! wrinkled face, ont of which shine a
pair of stony gray eyes, wrapped in
long dark military coat, cap on
his small head, faultlessly dressed in
generals uniform-a gentleman
born in every inch of his aristocratic,
slender figure, his body still erect,
but his head as in deep thought,
slightly bent forward-such man, |
say you may see coming out of the
great red building which stands on
the Keenigs-Platz, at the corner of
Moltke and Bismark streets, and
which bears the name of ssGeneral
Stab The solitary old man, unat-
tended by servant, walks, slowly,
noiselessly. Every one who meets
him looks at him attentively, if the
passer by is soldier he stands on
one side and salutes. The old gen.
eral returns the salute slowly and de-
liberately, but apparently without
seeing to whom. Every time l see
him the thought occurs to me in such
guise Dante must have passed through
the streets of Florence. That is Gen
eral Field Marshal Count Hellmuth
Won Nol'ke, one of the strangest
| characters the world has ever pro-
duced. 1t is well worth going to
Berlin to see that great historical

the result of Indigestion or Constipation, are

tlon, have safe and ready remedy in
