THOUGHT OF THE HOUR.

We must not hope to be mowers,
And to gather the ripe, gold ears,
Unless we have first been sewers,
And watered the burrows with tears.
1t is not iustas we take it,
This mystical world of ours,
Lies field will yield as we make it,
A harvest of thorns or flowers.

Arkansaw Traveller.
Old Ephraim Pierce was, years ago, one
of the best known steamboat engineers in
the South. He was what the boys called a
dry old fellow, never smiled in public and
never laughed except when he was alone.
On one occasion, while his boat was lying
at a warf in Cincinnati, gawky country
boy, carrying carpet-bag, came down to
the boat and told Pierce that he wanted to
''Farn how ter be er ingineer." The old
man, kind-hearted and sympathetic, had
not the courage to tell the young fellow
that he had better seek better employment,
but with one of his grim tales sought to
discourage him.
MY dear boy" said he. 1--WE would like
the best in the world to have new man,
but, to tell you the truth, our runs are
thickly beset with danger. We run mostly
on the Arkansaw river. and the Arkansaw
river is full of bears. They swim out and
commit all sorts of depredations. Some
time ago, while we were running along
bear swan out, caught hold of the bow of

deck. He did not stop. but, buckety,
buckety, buckety, he walked back toward
the boilers. got out of the way, but my
partner was not so lucky. The bear seized
him. My partner was as good soul as
ever lived, but the bear grabbed him and
jumped into the river. Yes, sir, as good a
soul as ever lived, but the bear didn't care

The young man took up his carpet-bag
and climbed the hill.

THE BATHER.

The boy walked through the woodland dim,
Upon his way to have swim,
Before him lay the placid pool,
Serene and lovely, sweet and cool,
Woe is me, Albania!
Soon DER his head the boy did yank
His clothes, and piled them on the bank,
And then he ran and didn't stop
Till in the lake he went ker-fop.
Woe is me, Albania!
Beneath the serface he did pop,
And when he rose unto the top,
He heard, and much unto his grief,
The lusty shout of ''chaw roast beef"
Woe is me, Albania!
He danced around, and had, oh, lots
Of fun in chewing cut the knots;

At which time he had six teeth less.

terrible agony. I was hardly able to get

needles were sticking into me. My feet were
very much swollen, and the slightest move

II went TO a doctor, of. course, but his
treatment did me no good. He recommended
certain kind of baths, which failed to help
me. Another doctor treated me with medi-
cines, which also failed to do me any good.
The pain increased and grew intolerable.
One day stranger came into my place. He
noticed my condition and advised me to go
and see DR.. Mccoy. Very fortunately was
in a mood to take anybody's advice. 1 went
to see Dr. Mccoy and went under his treat
