She must come back another day
To tell him bis commands she did obey

HeR LOST FAITH.

The mother of David Hume was
a susceptible woman. AilectiOnate
by nature, she lived in the affections
of her family. More than this she
was a religious woman, and 1t was
her aim to rightly educate tue con
sciences of her orphan children.
David Hume was brilliant lad.
His success in his intellectual pur-
suits and studies led his mother to
hope that he would become an emf
nent man. With this vision like Il
how of promise before her, her life
had many happy hours.
But one day IA shadow crossed
the light of this beautiful dream.
Her son ayowed himself q sceptic.
His mother viewed the change OF
his opinions with alarm, both on
account Of his own future happi-
ness and his influence over others.
lie loved his mother. Her love
and admiration for him gave him
great influence over her. He de-
termined to overthrow her religious
belief, and succeeded. His subtle,
specious reasoning destroyed her
faith in God, and left her without
religious hope.
Hume became leader among
men, and crowned himself with
fame. He associated with courtly
people, philosophers, wits, and men
of genius. lie was quoted, and
multiplied hisinhuence among men.
He went abroad, roaming over
the sunny provinces Of France and
historic fields Of Italy Returning
to London on bis way home to
Scotland, he was met 10y postman
who gave him letter. The com
municaton was from his mother.
/ It began substantially as follows :
my DEAR SON:-My health has
failed me. j am in a deep decline
and | can not long survive. My
philosophy gives me no comfort. |
am left without the consultations OF
religion, and my mind is sinking
into despair. | pray you hasten
home to console me- '.
Hume hurried back to Scotland {,
and when lie arrived at his home
he found his mother dead.
We do not know what his feel
ings were. We only know that had
he arrived before her death he
would have had no consolation to
offer. lie himself died jesting, aud
we have no moral to draw from any
regrets which Que might reasona'
bly, imagine he would feel in such a
case.
Bat the incidents suggest sltua-
tion to better hearts than bad Da.

tions in uubelief for the hour of
sorrow, disaster or death. 1

hopes of others may one day gb1

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Our grand business in life is not
to see what lies dimly at a distance
but to do what lies clearly at hand.
Carlyle.
There is some help for all the de
fects Of fortune, for if man can
not attain to the length Of his
wishes he may have his remedy by
cutting Of them shorter.-COwley.
We often think we are Of great
importance to other people; that
they must be thinking OF US and
our Affairs; that they watch our
actions and shape their course ac.
cordingly. In general We are quite
mistaken. jean lngelOw.
The spirit OF liberty is not mere.
ly, as some people imagine, jeal-
Ously of our own particular rights,
bat a respect for the rights Of
others and an unwillingness that
any man, whether high or low,
should be wronged or trampled un-
der foot.-Channlng.
/ hold him great who for LoYe's sake,
Can give with earnest, generous will
But ne who takes for Loves sweet sake,
think hold more generous still.
Adelaide Proctor.
There are many men whose ton
CUES might govern multitudes if
they could govern their tongues. -
Prentice.
In all things throughout the
world the men who look for the
crooked will see the crooked, and
the men WHO look for the straight
can see the straight.-Ruskin.
You cannot dream yourself into
a character; you must hammer
and forge yourself One.-Froude.
In the experience of life it is
found that the wholesome discipline
Of adversity in strong natures us
ually carries with it a selfpreserv-
ing influence. Samuel Smites.
Even while we ale talking and
medItating about the eartfs orbit
and the solar system, what we feel
and adjust our movements to is the

CRADLE SONG.
From the Nac Drama, Marie del CarmeH.'
Sleep. my pretty one,
Sleep, my little one,
Rose In the garden is blooming so red
Over the flowers heet-foOted hours
Dance into dreamland to melody wed
To the voice Of the stream-to song IN
a dream,
sung low by the brook to its stone covered
bed.
Sung soft as it goes
And the heart of the rose
Gives a tremulOus leap
As the melody flows.
Al, little one, sleep,
sleep.
Peace, my little one,
Peace, my pretty one,
Lilies bend low 10 the breath Of the breeze
1.-the asawillow, the boat on the billow
High tosses the spray for the sunlight to
tease
With kiss and tear-with a rainbow
a fear,
For the light is the suns and the spray is
the seas
And the wind DER the lea
Breaks to melody free,
As the waves that release
The low laugh of the sea.
Ny pretty one, peace,
Peace.
JOY, my pretty one,
JOY, my little one;
Fairies of nieLt from their bright -jeweled
care
Fling faint sheen and simmer on MP
pies where glnnmer
The up gazing eyes of the down-gazing
stars
And the boat, while it glides, sings the
song Of the tides
As they kiss into languor the sand of the
bars.
Oh, river, flow fleet,
Ere the melody meet
The seas breath TO destroy
What the echoes repeat:
Ny little one, JOY,
JOY
Francis HOWdrd Williams.
