s The RAID OF DEATH.

And the frightened crowd, with headionf

Men who...had often wished themselve.
dead,
Turned with the rest and trembling fled
The young and the strong, the feeble and
Over whose heads long years had rolled, :
The naughty and humble, the gloomy
and gay,
Alike all hurried and fastened away.
Into his mansion the rich man hied,
Barring his gates on the crowd outside;
And clasping his idols with strong right
arm,
Said to himself, 'swe're safe from harmlr
Then cautiously peered from a loop-hole
out,
To see what mischief old Death was about.
Outside the panic was wild and high,
None of the crowd were ready to die
But they knew that if Death in their steps
should gain,
Pleading and prayers would be all in
vain.
One of their number they knew must
fall
And who could be spared the best Of all ?
"Give him old Trueman!'' some one
Crlnn
" He with his limbs ell twisted aside;
Ugly, and old, crippled is he
Better take him than you or me.
And SO, with tear in each sightless eve,
Poor old Trueman was to die.
But Death passed on by the friendless
old man
On past the feeble who prayed as they
ran
And into the old man 8 mansion gay,
Needless of bolts he made his way.
Not that he cared for the glittering gold.
But he wanted lamb from the sheltered
fold.
The rich mans heart stood still with
dread
AS he heard the invaders terrible tread
He folded an amulet rich and rare
Round the dainty form of each idol fair
And cried with pitiful pleading breath
:" Leave them alone they are mine.
O Death ~
But Death, with purpose cruelty planned,
Bathed the white brow with his own cold
dew,
Pressed the lids over the eyes of blue,
And hove xxoxy from, tho eto ta1ty bol1

THE KISS OF LITERATURE.
HOW IT HAS FIGURED IN SOME
CRITICAL JUNCTUREs IN LIFE.

Georgiana, Duchess of Devon
shire, gave Sleet, the buther, kiss
for his vote nearly a century since !;
and another equally beautiful wo-
man, Jane, Duchess of Gordon, re-
cruited her regiment in a similar
manner. Duncan Mackenzie, a vet
eran of Waterloo, who died at Elgin,
Scotland, in 1866, delighted in relat
ing how he kissed the Duchess in
taking the shilling from between her
teeth to become one Of the regiment,
the Gordon Highlanders, better
known as the Ninety-second. The
old Scottish veteran of 'S7 has not
left one behind him to tell the same
tale about kissing the blue-eyed
Duchess in the market place of Dut-
kill.
An American naval officer, who
had spent considerable time in China,
narrates an amusing experience OF
the custom of kissing. Wishing to
complete a conquest he had made of
a young mel jim beautiful LADY,, he
invited her, using English words, to
give him a kiss. Finding her CON-
prehension of his request somewhat
obscure, he suited the action to the
word and took a delicious kiss. The
girl ran away into another room,
thoroughly alarmed, exclaiming
Terrible man-eater! / shall be de-
voured ~ But in moment, finding
herself uninjnred, she returned to
him, saying: ~ would learn more
Of your strange rite. Kee-es me-"
He knew it wasn't right, but he kept
on instructing her in the rite OF
kee.es me, until she knew how to do
it like native Yankee girl. And
after that she suggested second
course, remarking; "Kee-es me
more, seen jine, Mee-lee kee !" Gan
gIice-Ameriean), and the lesson went
ON until her mammals voice awaken
ed them from their delicious dream,
/ KISS her gently; but be sly
Kiss her when there's no one by
| Steal your kiss, for then tbs sweetest,
Stolen kisses are the sweetest.
Tom Hood once asked whether
Hannah More had ever been kissed
THAT is to say, by man. 1t is al
most impossible to imagine snch a
thing; and yet it has been asserted
By the author OF Rejected Address

While behind the vestry door

Feminine ingenuity is a gre,

Feminine ingenuity is great
thing. Two ladies Of Fremont, o.,
bad two thousand dollars worth Of
diamonds. They wanted safe
hiding place for them. They select
ed an ash barrel. No one, OF course,
would ever expect to find diamonds
in an ash barrel. The plan should
have been a success But it wasn't.
In a moment OF forgetfulness the
ladies sold the barrel and its con-
teats for five cents. The next time

Aud tue stars, the moon, the ilost,
and sunlight all did what they could
for those who loved them. But the
father and child did not stir; aud
the rats and the mice danced about
them, and ate of the bread she had
brought, and tore bits of his and
her hair away to build them new
nests for their young, ard ate of
their flesh. And the vermin lived
all through the cruel winter, and in
1.-THE springtime they scampered oyer
the fields and enjoyed the sunlight,
but at evening always returned to
the old barn, at nightfall, and
wrought new nests for their young
of black and white hair and bits of
old cloth, and fed their Young on
human flesh.
But one day stray match got
ignlted, and burned full many a
nest built of black and white threads,
soft and warm, like the finest silk,
and the old barn for half an hour
was sight to idle passersby. The
fire department was called, but it
was registered as a false alarm, for
1t was an empty barn that had
taken fire just outside of the city
limits.
And the stars, the moon, the frost,
and the sunlight have looked upon
"a few white scattered bones, and
the heavens have wept upon them;
and as they crumble to dust the
earth absorbs them. And the stars,
the moon, the frost, and the sun
still gaze on strange ambitions,
strange misfortunes, strange sad
