forever, with the Lord. She is walking the
golden streets, and singing the song of Moses
and the Lamb. She is with the mother whose
loss she deeply mourned, but one short year
ago, and with others of our number who have
passed on before. But she is not idle; those
feet, so ready to run on errands of kindness
here, those hands, SO constant in their loving
ministries, are given now a higher service. She
shall "run and not be weary. she shall walk and
not faint on the errands of the Lord.
We, who are left behind do sadly miss her in
her accustomed places let us draw nearer to-
gether, let us be more faithful in all we are
called upon TO do. more kindly in our judg-
ments. more helpful to all about US. and so. let
us press on together, toward the mark of the
prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
How doth death speak of our beloved,
When it hath laid them low
When it hath set its hallowing touch
On speechless lips and brow2

With radiance from the holest place,
With light as from an angels face;
Recalling with resistless force.
And tracing to their hiddensonrce
Deeds scarcely noticed in their course.

The Jackals of Calcutta.

Kind friends had warned us. Mr.. Bamford
writes in "Turbans and Tails ere we retir-
ed to sleep the first night in Calcutta, not to
suppose that there was anything the matter
if we should hear the cry OF the jackals
But for that warning do not know what
our feelings, would have been when, awak-
ened from our first sleep by them, we heard
pack pass close to the house. 1t seemed to us
as though the conscience of the whole city
had unDarred the portals of hell and put a
trumpet in the hand Of every liberated fiend.
had presupptuously imagined that famil-
larlty with the concerts of London cats would
enable him to sleep through the jackals' ef-
forts. But though the cat has undeniable
notes of the jackal. This latter, indeed,
lacks the conversational variety of the more
domestic animal. He confines himself main
ly to one tune, which begins in semi apollo
getlc low note, then ascends little still
with a suspicion of apology and explanation
that he did not mean to make quite so much
noise but could not help it ;and then the flood
gates are open, and, seeming to say that he
does not care, he yells with ecstatic aban-
don. Terrible as wandering voice. of the
night, the Jackal appears a poor creature
should he be come upon in his own proper
person by day. True, his teeth are to be re-
spected, but that is because like all carrion
feeders, his bite Is more or less poisonous.
Heis himself a sneaking coward, useful, how
eyer, beyond description. No system of
drainage will enable Calcutta to dispense
with its natural scavengers, and of these the
1ackal is among the most efficient. Peering
scent out what has escaped even the crows
bright eye, little as that seems to miss, he fills
a special place in the sanitary economy of
the City of Palaces.

Nothing Wasted.

youths Companionl
Avisitor in western Pennsylvania, while
admiring the glowing fires in house warmed
by the national gas, stopped to discover what
the substance was which filled the CRATES
and sent forth such intense and radiant heat
He found it to be broken cinders from the
glass works in the neighborhood.
"Why, this is the refuse which have al
ways seen carted into the riyerw he said
YES" replied the mill owner; "but there
is always use for refuse somewhere. The
great secret of this worlds economy is to
find the right place for the waste"
Our French and Chinese kinsfolk know
this secret better than we do. They find a
place and use for the scraps and dust. The
debris of every BRIDESMAIDS work goes to
help another with his task. Even the offal
is turned to sweet and wholesome uses"
"Gauher up the fragments that remain"
said he who created world by word, shat
nothing may be lost"
A few years ago a good woman in one of
our cities was vexed to see how many maya
zines were thrown into the waste-paper bas-
ket in her home. She collected them, sorted
them, and sent them to a lonely life-saving
station on New Jersey sea beach. When
she died, friend who loved her continued
the work in her name, and the system has
been extended until every station on the
coast of the United States is provided with a
little library of these waste magazines for
use of the crews of their solitary watches du-
ring the long, stormy winters.
A missionary in Montana, man of schol-
arship and intellectual tastes, living in cab
ln and fighting off starvation with salary of
S200'a year, once wrote: "A poor family in
New York send to me their one magazine
and newspaper after they have read them.
They have been like water to man dying of
thirst. Many time have they kept me from
despair in this solitude. ! would read them
at night. and 20 to bed happy, thanking God
that there was so much comfort and pleasure
in the world"
But the waste cinders are not always thus
put into the empty CRATE to throw forth
glowing, radiant heal. In almost every
house in our cities there are heaps of books
are destroyed as useless. Throughout the
west and south there are tens of thousands
of poor homes into which this waste matter
would bring light and happiness.
The rich mans child throws his toys into
the fire. and on the next street little Grip
pie lies on his bed in the garnet with not a
rag doll to bear her company.
In THIS mouse woman upon whose musical
training fortune has been spent in misera-
Bile with enDui, and across the way is a
hospital for incurables, watching their few
remaining days creep YEARLY away. A
song or strain of music every day would

en-.

ton, fortune and gentle, winning manners,
spending her years in absolute idleness, and
in the alley near her. in her own kitchen il

edge and time she is wasting might bring
strength and life.
Is there nothing lying waste in our houses
or in our lives for which God has a use?

REPUBLICAN, STATE CONVENTION.
A Republican state Convention will be held in
CITY n a l.,
Portland, Tuesday, June 12, 1888,
All o'clock, A. W.,

for the purpose OF nominating candidate for
Governor to be supported at the September cleo
ton, and transacting any other business that may
properly come before it.
The basis of representation will be as follows:
Each city, town and plantation will be entitled to
one delegate, and for each seyenty-fye votes cast
for the Republican candidate for governor in 1884
an additional delegate, and for fraction of forty
votes in excess of seventy-fye votes, further
additional delegate. Vacancies in the delegation
of any city. town or plantation, can only be filled
by residents of the county in which the vacancy
exists.
The State committee viii be in session in the
reception room of the hall at . O'Clock on the
morning of the convention. for the purpose of re-
ceiving the credentials of delegates.
All electors of Maine, without regard to past
political differences, who believe in protecting the
Industries of this State and its agricultural pro-
ducts; who believe in protecting the laborer and
the wage-earner in every right; who believe 'in
choosing policy which inspires labor with hope
and crowns it with dignity which gives safety to
capital and protects its increase, which secures
political power to every citizen, comfort and cul
ture to every home" giving free popular education
to the people; in favor of free suffrage and an
honest counting of ballots; who approve the pro-
hibiton of the liquor traffic and the promotion of
the cause of temperance; in an economical, just
and efficient administration of public affairs; a
faithfully administered civil service; and who up

management of State affairs, and one that
commended itself to the intelligent and con-
sentative people of the State. Heretofore
the Republicans have let their adversaries
do the laundering. But there are signs this
year that we shall not be able to place much
reliance ON Democratic laundering. The
Democratic convention had fine opportu-
nifty for laundering, but contrary to the usu-
al custom of Democratic conventions in this
State, 1t neglected to avail itself of it. 1t
did not put license plank in the platform.
1t might have Numbered in the selection
of a candidate for Governor, but instead it
chose one who is universally admitted to be
the superior of any candidate the party has
had for a great many years. But not only
did it not make any new blunders, it correc-
ted some that had been previously commit
ted. 1t deposed Chairman Brown and took
the management of the campaign out of the
hands of the present incompetent State COM
mittee and placed it in the hands of a new
one The prospect is. therefore, that the
Republicans will have to meet an enemy
well differed and maneuvred.
This being the situation it obviously be-
hooves the Republicans to be unusually
careful to make no mistake that can be taken
advantage of by the enemy. Nobody will
dispute that the nomination of candidate
against whom objections, other than of
political character, may be urged that will
appeal TO intelligent voters is mistake.
Are there any such objections to Mr.. Bur
leigh? The Hon. J. w. Wakefield, one of
the ablest and most efficient Republicans in
the State, says there are. The Hon. j. w.
Fairbanks, one of the most prominent
Republicans of Franklin county, says there
are. The Hon. K. II. Banks, ex-treasurer of
the State, one of Biddeford's most prominent
citizens, says there are. The Hon. William
Rogers, one of the best known business men
of Bath, says there are And these gentlemen
have not.only said that such objections ex-
ist but they have pointed out just what they
are. They have shown clearly enough that
the nomination of State treasurer during
his term of Office, is contrary to the spirit of
the constitution, and will establish very
bad precedent which in the future may be
productive of serious harm to the State. 1t
seems TO us that no thoughtful man can read
what these gentlemen have said on this SUBJ
ject without being convinced that the mat
ter is one of grave consequence. 1t is not q
scare gotten up to brighten away Mr.. Bur-
leigh's supporters, but it constitutes an OBJ
lection to Mr.. Burleigh's candidacy which
the more it is studied the more serious ii
appears.
