One morning, in the year 1902, a
Young clerk took his place IN the Of
flee of the East India Company, in
London, and there, day after day,
for thirty-three years, he might have
been seen at his post. He was a
timid, thoughtful man, rendered
more timid by incurable suffering.
This clerk was Charles Lamb. He
was seventeen years old when he
took his place in the East India
Company's Office. When he was
twenty-one, he began life of cheer
full, loving self-sacrifice. His sister
Mary had become insane, and one
day had snatched knife from the
dinner-table, and had given her moth
or blow with it, which killed her.
After his fathers death, Charles
took his poor sister from the asylum
in which she had been placed, made
a home for her, aud DEVOTED his life
to her comfort. She recovered her
reason, but she was insane several
times again during her life. Charles
watched over her with the tenderest
care.
He gave his leisure moments to
writing. He wrote some essays, and
signed them with the name of. Elia.''
They are called the CELIA Essays"
and are admired by all who love
whatever is simple and truthful in
men and books. His name stands
first among those of English humor.
lists.
With sister mournfulIy afflicted,
with small salary, with a life of
drudgery, Charles Lamb bore a gen
tie, cheerful heart. His wit made
him famous. He was q LondOner,
and he loved the streets of London,
us other men love the forest and the
mountain. He studied the men and
women that thronged these crowded
streets, and found in them material
for beautiful thought, and gave to
them warm and gentle sympathies.
His kindly heart won for him many
warm friends.
No one who saw that silent clerk,
patiently doing his monotonous work
wonld have thought that he was one
of England's men of genius. No
one who met him taking his daily
walk in the streets Of London would
have thought that under his worn
coat beat one of England's most
noble hearts-a heart full Of the
glory of self-sacrifice.
When Charles Lamb was fifty
years old, he received a pension
which enabled him to leave the OF
flee where he bad spent so many
years. He could make his sister
happier now by his constant presence.
When he went home forever as
he said, he wrote to friend that it
was +" like passing from time to eter-
nity.r

Shall We Meet Again

The following from the pen OF the
lamented George ID. Prentice is well
worth reproduction. 1t was regard
ed as meritorous when it first ap-
peared, and age seems to have but
added to its beauty "The fiat death
is memorable. No appeal for relief
from the great law which dooms us
to dust. We flourish and fade as
the leaves Of the forest, and the
flowers that bloom, wither, and fade
in a day have no Trailer hold upon
life than the mightiest monarch that
ever shook the earth with his foot
steps. Generations of men will APP
pear and disappear as the grass,
and the multitude that throng the
world to-day will disappear as foot
steps on the shore. Men seldom
think of the great event of death
until the shadows fall across their
own pathway hiding from their eyes
the faces of loved ones whose living
smile was the sunlight of their ex.
istence. Death is the antagonist of
life, and the thought of tombs is the
skeleton of all feasts. We do not
want to go through the dark valley,
although its dark passage may lead
to paradise; we do not want to go
down into damp graves, even With
princes for bed-fellows. In the
beautiful drama of Ion, the hope OF
immortality, so eloquently uttered
by the death-devoted Greek, finds
deep response in every thoughtful
soul. When about to yield his life a
sacrifice to fate, his Clemanthe asks
if they should meet again; to which
he responds: have asked that
dreadful question of the hills that
look eternal-of the clear streams
that flow torever-of stars among
those fields ofazure my raised spirits
have walked IN glory. All are dumb
But as gaze upon thy living face
! feel that there is something in love
that mantles through its beauty that
cannot wholly perish. We shall meet
again, Clemanthe.r

temptation in using them, guilt in
abusing them, sorrow in losing them,
and n burden of account at last to
be- gwen up concerning them, and
yet foolish people sell their souls
and sigh to be rich.
