selves on doing the correct thing when they
know it called it in her presence Funnel

THE TEACHERS TASK.

We who the teachers place would MI should
know its duties vast
Should count them DER as noyice's beads are
through her fingers passed,
And earnest prayer on every one thy seeking
soul should cast.
1t il to mold in shapen forms TO beauty's image
fair;
TO part the fakes OF gold from dross that dan
zles with its glare;
TO snatch from out mass of earth thoughts
diamonds rich and rare.
TO fashion well the crude young lives that DER
life's threshold pour
To curb and guide the restless limbs that ne CT
were curbed before;
To sift the strains OF knowledge's hymn from
out the worlds dull roar.
TO help the struggling soul along its pathway
toward tho sun,
To rightly paint the Offering prize for which
life's race is run;
TO light the lamp which shall endure until the
goal is won.
TO watch for rays of thought that may with fu-
ture brightness shine;
To furnish each truth-scekng heart with Wis
dom's countcrsign;
To turn the current of mems thoughts toward
Sciences holy shrine.
To catch far on the CLEAN which tells OF perfect
manhood's dawn;
To strive that lines of truth shall be o or tickle
fancy drawn;
To add the minds uplifting power to muscles
sturdy Drawn.
To fec in all its mighty weight the greatness Of
the trust;
To realize the feeble strength that lies in human
dust;
TO lift against n burden that seems oftcntimes
unjust.
To meelily serve when critics cry that labor is
in vain;
To sweep with patience 'gainst tho waves that
roll from of the main;
To weep DER efforts lost and then take up the
toll again.
To aim with care, and see thy shaft fall wide
from of the mark;
To hear rough feet tramp rudely out thy scarcely
lighted spark;
To watch the eddyiug waters gulf thy fondly
builded bark.
To SOW fair seed and never see the dapped hsr.
vest wave;
To give, and have no thankful heart Ger bless
the hand that gave;
To long and sigh for honor's crown and And
naught but grave.
But then ut last when thou shalt have the
earthly record weighed,
And know that better lives were lived by reason
OF your aid,
To rest in peace and Joy because so we'll your
part you played.

Keep Up Appearances.
Some hypocrisy there may be in
keeping up appearances. The last sac
rifices may be made to keep up the par
lor with a show of well-doing, while
the kitchen may be rig-pen. A taste
full, rather expensive, cloak or gown
may hide unclean and tattercd cloth
ing beneath. An improvident family
manages to maintain carriage with
some show before the community,
while the debts of the family would
more than eat up its possessions II
some way were not devised to evade
the sheriff. Grocers and other mer-
chants are laid under contribution to
help maintain families beyond their
actual means. The man who piles up
fire-wood will take pains to place the
sticks with the sawed edges outward,
that the the front surface of the pile
may appear well.
This may all be hypocrisy, in great
or small degree; but, after all, it means
something deeper. People do not love
to be hypocrites, unless we except the
few Uriah Keeps. There is no amuse-
ment in decoiving every body but your
self for the sake of deceit alone. Be-
meath all this are more ultimate ac-
uating motives. Responsibility is aip-
ed at, because it is a good thing we'll
doing is assumed because 1t Is desira.
BILE. The handsomest garment Is
placed in sight because beauty Is one
of the great additions to modern life.
Assume virtue If you have 1t not"
said Hamlet. So, in our age, when
well-doing is not universal, when
elegance and beauty and luxury arc
not common to all, their ownership Is
pretended; and they will conticnc to be
assumed until that day when VIC shall
all give up the pursuit Of ideals, or be
honestly satisfied with our efforts TO at
tain them. Good Housekeeping.
