The Michigan Fish Commission have oeen Investigating the catch of whitefish in Lakes that the years catch is the largest taken for 15 years. The catch is due almost entirely to State propagation and planting. The white fish catch from Lake Erie is the largest taken from any lake in the United States, and it is because there are more fish planted there. Pennsylvania plants from her matching at Erie, Ohio from Sandusky, the United States from the Worthwhile hatchery, and Michigan from Detroit.

GODS SCHOOL

One by one, as the days go by,
To learn our lessons brayely try;
For every nour some task is set
Difficult, easy, short or long,
And whether we come to it weak or strong,
Somehow or other, it must be met,
Graded we'll is this school of ours.
Each ones duties within his powers.
Aud his task the thing that he needs to
know,
And many time does the page grow dim,
And before tired eyes the hard words swim
Aud the hours go by so slow, so slow.
Various ages are gathered there,
Flaxen ringlets, and thin, gray hair,
Alike fall over the lesson books;
And often the little ones laugh in glee
At the beautiful words the bright eyes see,
While the old sit silent, with grave, sad
looks.
Sklful teachers assemble here
Patiently labor, year by year,
~
Only the scholars, weary vexed,
Idle, inpatient tired, perplexed-
Suffer from errors, all their own.
The Spirit teaches the highest class;
Time takes all as they onward pass;
JOY is claimed by the happy few,
While care, experience, labor, pain,
Treasures OF knowledge help us gain,
And conscience conducts the grand re-
view.
But patiently learning, day by day,
We're longing to hear the Master say
That our schooldays here are done;
And after the last long term shall pass,
70 be transplanted to that upper class
in which the advanced work is begun.

POOR LITTLE TANGLES; OR, THE
CHRISTMAS STAR.

"Please buy some matches! Please
buy some matches !" cried weary
little voice, among the crowd of foot
passengers, hurrying along one of the
principal streets of London.
ooh, do buy some; do buy some"
cried the voice again and again, but
fainter and more despairingly; for
the owner of it, "Tangles," as she was
called by her few acquaintance, was
tired, cold and hungry, and, after
waiting about all day in the cold and
bitter wind, now saw the night ap-
preaching without having sold one
Of her many colored boxes, or gained
even penny to buy herself piece
of bread.
Poor little Tangles! AS she seated
herself in a gloomy archway, and the
light of a Pickering gas-lamp fell full
upon her pale, worn face, and masses
Of black, unkempt hair, she looked
very small and weak to be left to bat
tie alone with the hard, careless
world, in which every one seemed
too absorbed in themselves and their
own afiirs to turn aside to assist the
destitute and starving.
1t was the oath of December, ard,
though the shops were gaily decorat-
I'd and lighted and hapy-faced pur-
chasers Of Christmas gifts jostled each
other on the pavement and shook the
snow-fakes off their warm wraps, lit
tie Tangles had no share in the JOY
full preparations, and instead felt a
dull weight of care and misery weigh
ing down her childish heart. "No
one to care for you No one to love
you-all alone, all alonen these
words kept ringing in her ears, and
the great salt tears dropped UNDECIDED
through her thin fingers as she rested
her head on her hands and thought
with oh! what wistful longing-oi
the last Christmas, when she had q
tender mother to help and comfort
her, and tiny attic to call home.
For Tangles had not always beer
uncared for and unprotected. Eight
years before, a young carpenter with
his wife and baby daughter, ha6
come up from Devonshire to seek his
fortune in the great city, and hat
found, when health and strength
were gone in the vain struggle agains
starvation, that bread is far harder t.
win in town than country; and that
instead of the life he had pictured t.
himself, all that the busy city could
give him was a nameless grave and ;
parish funeral.
Tangles, or "Milly," as she wa
then called, could still remember he
fathers gentle, patient face when hi
could no longer work, and consump
ton had laid its wasting finger OF
him and how he would sit all da,
with the Bible before him, readinj
iavorite passages, and sometime
whispering, "God will PROVIDE" a
if to encourage his own doubling
heart. After his death, his wife hat
struggled to gain acanty livelihoo'

every action Of her life beautiful and

cling to her lifetime.
Exactly twelve years after the
commencement of my story, two
happy people were seated in the coy
parlor of a little house belonging to
the village school-mistress of Airing
ton.
1t certainly was a very cheerful
room, and the faces of the inmates
still more so. Warm red curtains
were drawn across the lattice win
dOws, and bright fire burned cheeri-
ly in the polished CRATE. A few il
Illuminated texts ornamented the
walls, and over the chimney-piece
hung print of the wise men journ-
eying to the stable at Bethlehem, with
"God will provide" beautifully writ
ten underneath.
At the round table, neatly laid for
tea, sat girl of about twenty-five,
her merry brown eyes, healthy face,
and shining coils of dark hair, bearing
very little resemblance to the ragged,
miserable child, who, on that Christ
mas eve so long ago, had set out to
find a star to lead her to heaven.
"POor little Tangles," however, it
certainly was who had steadily and
impatiently worked her way up, be-
loved and respected by all who knew
her, till, with the aid of some friends,
she had gained her present response
BILE position as teacher to the young
folks of the small Kentish village of
Arlington.
"We've got a deal to be Thankful!
for, my Mllly," said old Putty rev.
erently. "The way you've got on
and prospered in the world by the
Lords blessing, and the way he's
spared us to each other, and guided
you here at last! / shan't be afraid
of dying and leaving You now. God
has been very good to us, my dear"
"That he has, dear father" replied
the girl, fervently. ~ cannot be
thankful enough to him for
all his mercy when l think of how
he watched over me on that dreary
Christmas eve,and guided me to love,
peace, and happiness by what was
