What is the past history of these
most unique and extraordinary OF Al
rican races? We are not likely to have
a complete answer to this question.
As vet we have had only a glimpse OF
them, and the study of their languages.
traditions and habits may throw light
upon their past. All our present evil
dence points to the probability that
they have descended from the earliest
inhabitants of the continent. We
know something of the migrations of
the tribes around them, and there
may vet be found evidence to show the
correctness of the hypothesis that the
Aka north and the Batwa south of
the Congo. the Doko, of Abyssinia; the
Obongo, of the Gaboon, and the BUSH
men, of South Africa, are remnants
of one great family.-N Y. Sun.

Unique Sofa Pillow.

Mrs. Beecher tells of q unique sofa
pillow. made by lady who had little
time, but q good deal of ingenuity and
taste. It was made from one of the
gay silk handkerchiefs seen in gentle
mems furnishing stores. A cardinal
handkerchief was chosen which had an
owl in one corAer. After the pillow
was made ard covered with silesia or
some similar material. she put the
handkerchief over it and turned the
corner which was ornamented with
the owl back toward the center, and
caught it there with invisible stitches.
The corner of the pillow that was left
visible had piece of black velvet put
smoothly over it, and handsome rib
bon-bow of the color of the handker-
chief was fastened to the velvet. The
pillow was finished ON the edge with q
silk cord Of bright gold color. and the
under side was lined with canton
flannel. It was pretty, and took but Z
few hours to. make Womap's Mao.

GOODBYE SWEET WORLDI

Goodbye, sweet world! to me SO passing fair,
Despite tho misery. the want and sin
That shadow sunlight and make foul the air
Beyond the flower-wall that shuts me IN
To me thy sunny side did'st ever turn,
Since OF this mortal life first drew breath
But not the best thou hadst to give could be
Ought OF defense against the serpent
Death!
In this last hour of passionate regret
NV heart doth cling TO thee in fond farewell;
Thy smiling face hath power to charm me yet
Thy changing joys still hold me in their
spell
From the fnr land to which soon must pass,
Shall not turn with home-sick longing here,
To see again in spring the greening grass
To lear the birds sing greeting to the year!
Where. all undimmed, the sun in glory shines,
No cool gray clouds upon the hills will rest
Or breaking, send the rain in slanting lines
To wake the daisies on the earth's warm
breast.
In that bright region OF eternal day,
The summer moon no more my eyes Will
meet
Pouring, midst pleiades and milky way,
Its lucid, silver radiance to my feet.
Shall not sigh for evenings quiet close,
Where there doth come no night to follow
morn
To taste the fragrance Of the dew-damp rose,
OR pluck pale lilies in the rosy dawn:
Will not my youthful spirit shrink apart,
With sense OF strangeness in a world un-
known!
Can those long dead there satisfy my heart.
Whose memory the years have overgrowns
Where Seraphim and Chcrubim do cry
In joyful unison-a shining band
No well-known face to seek with eager eye.
Nor feel the clasp of Q familiar hand.
Saviour! Lord. receive my doubling soul.
Home, kindred, friends I lose, to find in
Thee.
UE spirit hold in Thy supreme control,
Content to rest through all eternity!
