Look Up and Not Down.

Little Alice lay curled up in heal
under the peach-tree in the orchard
with her head buried in her sleeve.
"What are the clouds in my LITTLE
girls sky to-day?" asked Aunt Sue
coming up behind her and stroking th'
curly head.
II know I'm very foolish, Aun
Sue" sobbed Alice; "but never saw
any peaches growing in my life before
T came here, and I've been watching
them all summer. There were only
six on the tree, and grandpa said
might have half Of them when they
were ripe. I thought it would be such
fun to pick them all myself; and I wa:
going to have a dolls tea party thi:
afternoon, and had asked some of tht
girls to come"
"Well, and what is there in all this
to cry about?"
"Why, grandpa forgot he promised
me half, and has gone and given them
all to Cousin Maude. I met her just
as was coming in, and she had big
basketful, and was eating one of the
peaches and I heard her tell someone
she got them in grandpa's orchard. I
was so disappointed I just had to sit
right down and cry. Wouldn't care
so much, only Cousin Maude gets all
the good things"
"Well, and what is Alice going to do
about it-sit here and cry under her
little cloud, or look up and see if she
can't see some sunshine somewhere? ?
How would some of those big rosy ap-
Piles do for the tea-party?"
"They would be nice, wouldn't
they?" said Alice, drying her eyes !;
"and I could have lots of them"
"And what do you think Maude's
little sick sister will say when she sees
the basket of peaches"
"Oh, she'll be delighted! Pm glad
to have Louise have some, she has so
little to make her happy. I didn't
think of that"
"Now, the sun is beginning to come
out. Did you know, my dear, that
young people often hide their faces in
the shadows and think it is raining
when there's plenty of sunshine over
head? Just look up and see."
Alice raised her eyes involuntarily,
and there, just over head, hung three
great, glorious peaches.
"Why, Aunt Sue" she cried, show
did they get there"
"They have been there all the time,
my dear, only you wouldn't look up
to see them. Grandpa told Maude to
leave half of them for you; and her
basket was filled with apples, not
peaches. I didn't tell you before be-
cause I wanted you to learn little les
son. You'll remember it some time,
when everything seems to be dark
that there may be some golden bless
ings hanging, like three peaches, just
over your head but you never will see
them until you look up into the SUM-
shine.

"Father Watched All Night" "

Little Ella and her father were once
travelling together, and in order tt
reach their home it was necessary fol
them to travel all light.
When it became too dark for then
to look out of the windows, and thu
lamps were lighted inside, the father
laid aside his little girls hat, and
spreading out cloaks and shawls, said
"Now we will rest" But a little
troubled face pee-ed out upon the
strange scene, a mist was gathering in
those blue eyes, and the CHEEKY tone O.
voice changed to very plaintive one
as she asked: Father, how can we &C
to bed here ?"
"This is your bed, darling" he said
drawing her to his heart, "and a warm
one you will always find it." And
then he tucked her in so carefully that
in place of what had been little girl
there seemed only great bundle Of
shawls. But every now and then
there was a movement inside the bun
die, and q voice would say, "Oh, fa-
ther, I am afraid to 60 to sleep here"
Then the father reminded her that he
was taking care of her and would do
so all night. So at last, soothed by
this assurance, and worn out by un-
wonted fatigue, she fell asleep. When
she opened her eyes again, after what
seemed to her only few mo-
ments, the sun was shining brightly.
The train stopped, and there, just in
sight, was her own dear home. She
could even see her dear mother stand
ing in the open door, with arms out
stretched, to welcome back her loved
ones. Their first meeting was too full
of joy for many words to be spoken
but, after those close embraces and
warm kisses were over, the mother
asked, "And so my little girl has been
travelling all night? Did she find it a
long and weary time?"
"Oh, no, mother, not at all; [ had
such a good sleep, and father watched
over me all night! Only thinkof it |!
All night, mother, he watched over
me! At first I was afraid to 20 to sleep
in that strange place; but he told me
to lean against him and shut my eyes
and rest easily, for he would stay
awake and take care of me. So crept
up close to him, and, before kenw it,
was really and truly sound asleep
and dear father stayed awake, and
took care of me all night. How / do
love him for it,"
Then the mother, with the love-light
beaming from her eyes, told her child
of that heavenly Father who watches
over each of his children, not only
one, but every night of their lives.
And the words she spoke were so i'm
pressed upon Elias mind that, though
grown to womanhood now, she still re-
members them, and never lies down to
sleep without the glad feeling, my
father will be awake to watch over
me-" And her first thoughts on wax
ing to the beauties of the morning light
are of the dear Father in heaven,
whose loving care has made her rest so
safe and pleasant to her.

In Paradise.

Upon the threshold Of the land
That lies so far away,
A little child, with falterlng steps,
Drew near at close of day.
Her simple robe was snowy white,
Her shining tresscs fair,
She left below all pain and woe,
All sickness and all care.
But still with shrinking form she stood
Before the shining gate;
The night was dark and chill with gloom
The hour was growing late,
When noiselessly the gate Enclosed,
Mid streams Of dazzling light;
Fearful no more, she entered there,
Shut In from earth'S dark night.
We may not know what joys were hers,
What sights of glad surprise;
But here below we say Of her,
"She dwells in paradise

DON'T CURTAIL THE PIGs.-Thls IS
the advice of Theodore Lewis, an
Indiana stockman. He says he
couldn't think of cutting off the tails
from his pigs. The tails, he AYERS,
are the thermometers which indicate
the animals condition. If he does
not feel well, is not thriving, if his
food don't agree with him, the tail be-
gins to straighten. The sicker the pig
the straighter the tail. While the con-
ventional curl retains its place, there is
no anxiety about the pig; if double
curl is seen, he may be regarded as in
perfect condition. That old theory ol
"a bushel of corn to fatten an inch of
taip' has no terrors for Mr.. Lewis.
The pigs tail being his pulse it would
seem very foolish to cut it off.

A WOOD PREsERvATIvE.-Sul-
phate of copper is recommended for
keeping posts and timber from decay.
Telegraph poles in Norway are said to
be preserved by boring inch holes
about two feet from the ground, and
filling with the sulphate of copper crys-
tails, afterwards plugging the holes
with wood. The crystals gradually
dissolve and permeate the wood turn
ing it greenish color.

It was wise reply of Horace Gree
ley to some people who had come
laundering in upon him with furious
abuse, while he was writing at his
high desk, and toward whom he had
hardly turned his head while they
were berating him with their violent
invective: "Free your minds, friends
and then 60 out, and lin his shrillest
tones] shut the doorp 1t is capital
example sometimes to follow.

No Time.

No time to sing,
NO time to play
With her little children
So happy and gay;
No time for even
A sweet caress;
She Is fixing the flounces
OF O party dress.
No time to read,
No time to pray,
To teach her darlings
The holy way;
She is driven to death,
yes, . yes!
She Is sewing the lace
On her party dress.

ing more of the Texas people, and the
paople are to blame for not representing
their side of the case in the proper man

railroads. As it is now the owners get
but one side of the question. Few, if
any of them, have any personal

The farmers of the township of Tecum-
sch, in South Simcoe. are greatly inter-
ested at present in a strange freak of
nature which has taken place in their
midst, being nothing less than cow
giving birth to TWO lambs and a calf.
The interesting event occurred on the
farm of John Henry Carter, lot 4 eighth
concession line, Sunday, April IA, and
when the news spread abroad so many
people wanted to see the curiosities that
Mr. Crater finally decided to get rid of
them, and disposed of the COW and her
progeny TO Isaac NJ. Cross, au enterpris-
ing young farmer of Bondhead.
The animals were removed to Totem
ham and a few days ago the Toronto
Globe was invited to send up a man TO
see the stock and investigate independ-
emily the correctness of the story.
At a first glance the reporter was
rather disappointed in the lambs, having
entertained some vagne idea on the sub
ject, and hoping to see fully developed
sealf with the face of a lamb or vice
versa. But they appeared TO his unedux
Gated eye to be ordinary lambs
and nothing more. This was az a
first glance. subsequent careful
examination and comparison with Other
lambs of the same age showed markaa
1zfferenee. Those of the unnatural
parentage are larger and coarser, the
wool is darker, and in toward the peltf
is like the hair on Maltese cat; tlssfeis
