Btn Nue on the Modern Cottaqe


told my friend that liked his new
house first rate. Then went home and
wept all night. 1t was my first false
hood. The roofs were made of little odds
and ends Of misft rafters and distorted
shingles that somebody had purchased at
Sheriff. sale, and the rooms and stairs
were giddy in the extreme. | went in
and rambled around among the cross
eyed staircase and other Nightmares, till
reason tottered on her throne. Then !
came out and stood on the architectural
wart called the side porch, to get fresh
air. This porch was painted dull red,
and had wooded rosettes on the corners
that looked like brand new carbuncle
on the nose Of social wreck. Further
up on the demoralized lumber pile | saw
now and then places where the work.
mans mind had wandered, and b had
nailed on his clapboards wrong side up,
and then painted them with Paris green
that he had intended to use on something
else. It was an odd looking structure
indeed. If my friend got all the mate
rials for nothing, from people who had
fragments Of paint and lumber left over
after they failed, and then if the work
men constructed it Of nights for mental
relaxation and intellectual repose with
out charge, of course the scheme was a
financial success; but architecturally the
house is a gross violation Of the statutes
in such cases made and provided, and
against the peace and dignity Of the State.
There is a look Of extreme poverty about
the structure, which a man might strug-
gle for years to acquire and then fail.
No one could look upon it without feel
ING a headache for the man who built
that house, and probably struggled on
year after year, building little bit at a
time as he could steal the lumber getting
new workman each year, building a
knob here and protuberAnce there, put
ting in a three cornered window at one
point, and a yellow tile or wad Of broken
glass or other debris at another; patient
" filling in around the ranch with any
old rubbish that other people had got
through with, and painting it as he went
along, taking what was left in the bottom
Of the pot after his neighbors had painted
their bob sleds or their tree boxes-little
fayors thankfully receiyed-and then sur
mounting the whole pile with a potpourri
Of roof, grand farewell incubus Of bumps
and hoIlows for the rain to wander
through and seek out the different cells
where the lunatics live who inhabit it.

GOD KyOWETH BEST.

Sometime when all life's lessons have been
learned,
And sun and stars forever more have set.
The things DER which we grieved with lashes
wet,
viii flash before Us out Of life's dark night,
As stars shine most in deeper tints of blue !;
And we shall see how all Gods plans were
right,
true.
And we shall see how, while We frown and
sigh,
Gods plans go on as best for you and me;
How, when we called, He needed not our cry,
Because His wisdom 20 the end could see.
And even as prudent parents disallow
Too much Of sweet to craving babyhood'
So God, perhaps, is keeping from us now
Life's sweetest things, because 1t seeiheth
good.
And if, sometimes, commingled with hfes
wine
We find the wormwOod, and rebel and shrink,
Be sure WISER Hand than yours or mine
Pours out this potion for our lips 70 drink.
And if some one we love is lying low,
Where human kisses cannot reach the face,
Oh. do not blame the loving Father So
But wear your sorrow with obedient grace.
And you will shortly know that heightened
breath
Is not the sweetest gift God gives His friend
And that sometimes the sable pail Of death
Conceals the fairest boon His love can send
If we could push ajar the gates Of life,
Could stand within and all Gods working
see,
We could interpret all this doubt and strife
And for each mystery could find key.
But not to-day. Then be content. poor heart
Gods plans, like lilies pure and white, un-
fold
We must not tear the cl0seshut leaves apart,
Time will reveal the stamens OF pure gold.
And if. through patient toll, We reach the land
Where tired feet, with sandals loose, may
rest,
When we shall clearly know and understand
think that we will say" God knew the
host 90

II Cured Him Of Kindness.
Hay Gould. in a recent Ietter.l

Jay Gould, in a recent letter.
Il found a cockroach struggling in
bowl Of water. took peanut shell for
boat. put him into it, gave him two
wooden toothpicks for oars and left him.
The next morning ! visited him, and he
had put piece Of white cotton thread
on one Of the toothpicks, and sat the
toothpick on end as a signal Of distress.
He had hair on the other toothpick,
and there that cockroach sat a fishing.
The cockroach, exhausted, had fallen
asleep. The sight melted me into tears.
/ had never TO chew leather 10 get a soul;
| was born with one. ! took that cock
roach out and gave him spoonful Of

got my kindness, and now my house Is

There are !, ,4OO,OOO,OOO people living
on the planet which We inhabit And
vet there Is now and then a man who
wonders what the rest Of Us will do when
he dies. There are people in " society "
who honestly think that all the world
closes its eyes when our set lies down to
sleep. There are men who fear to act
according TO their own convictions, be-
cause perhaps ten persons in a crowd Of
1, 400, 100000 will laugh al them. Why,
if a man could only realize every moment
