a College During the War.

The building Of the bridge across the Hud-
son at Poughkeepsie puts us in mind of the
fact that the project was first broached
great many years ago by Professor Eastman,
of that town. He labored long and hard to
bring the public to see the advantages to be
derived from such work, but died before he
had enough supporters to bring his plan to a
head Eastman made an enormous fortune in
Poughkeepsie with business college. At the
time of the war he was eking out a living as
the proprietor of a small school Under
the draft law scholars were exempt from mill
tary service, and Eastman soon found his
school so full that he had to move into more
commodious quarters. The secret of the plan
to evade conscription leaked out, and within
six months Eastman rented every vacant
room in the town and filled it with scholars"
nliteracy spread with alarming rapidity, and
middle-aged men who had been considered
fairly educated merchants suddenly forgot
how to read and write or to do their sums
and found it necessary to attend Professor
Eastmans business college. The professor
prospered accordingly, and even when the
war,deprived him of his scholars" his business
was firmly established. Chicago News.

"AND WEPT NO MORE"

There is a legend old and gray.
How once mother mourDed her child
Despairing, weeping night and day,
With passionate lamentlngs Wild,
Til, in her dream, amid her pain,
She saw, in heav'n up overhead,
The infant Christ Aud, lol train
OF white-robed little ones He led.
Beneath the breezy trees they strayed;
Or, DER the murm'ring waters bent;
Or, in the daisied meadows played,
Like children that a. MayiDg went.
A rush of rapture to her came,
She cried. '::Ohl in that throng SO fair
Nv babe must be-" and called his name
Alas! the lost one was not there.
In anguish mute she turned, when low
The infant Christ spake in her ear:
See, far behind, and tOiling slow,
The dear, dear one who should be here,
Beneath pitcher-weary load
With tears. your own, kept brimming
o'er,
Hopeless be struggles on his road"
The mother woke, and wept no more.
