Grown men aud women ~

And know what spirits know,

In some sun gilded cline.

But when n child goes yonder,
And leaves its mother here,
It's little feet must wander.
Ii seems to me. In fear.
What paths Of Ellen beauty.
What scenes % peace and rest
Can bring content 10 babes that vent
Forth from a mothers breast
In palace gardens lonely.
4 child astray will moan.
fnd weep FOR pleasures only
Found in It's humble home.
II IS not won by splendor
Nor bought by costly toys:
To hide from harm in mothers arm
Makes all H. sum u joys.
II must be when the baby
Goes ,0urneying or alone
Some angel (Mary. maybe.

Yet when a child j. iais
Whose mother stays belov,
With weeping eyes through Paradise

With harps OF angels trying
To drive away is fear

\ pious and prosperous old deacon Of
Portsmouth, y. H., had been spcculatiug
in pork on margin" and for some
months was very successful in his ven
lures. SO that he saw visions Of great
wealth in the near furre. But after a
time pork did not pay SO well, and still
he kept Specializing. until sudden panic
IN pork caused him to lose heavily, and
20 square himself he placed nm attach
ment TO the amount he had lost on his
brokers. and sought 10 recover by law
what ho had lost by luck.
This sudden catastrophe. Of course,
noised the secret of the dcacou's specula-
tons abroad, and his unseemly haste for
wealth became the talk of the town. But
tho deacon braved it down and went
about the streets with his head rs high as
ever
One rNi-g d. attended prayer meet
ing at his church. and the pastor called
upon him to lead thcexcrciscs by asking
Divine guidance. The Invocation was
after the deacon's usual style. Begin
ming with the president and his cabinet,
he bcsought prosperity for all the rulers
of the nation. state and city in order
Then branching of into lesser affairs he
was PRAYING cloquontiy for the financial
success Of an Portsmouth. enumerating
every trade and calling in succession,
when a siniul.mirth loving boy inthc back
part of the church called out, Whats
the matter with pork
\ large sized hush fell on the congre-
CATION then and there, during which the
good deacon made haste TO boil down
his remarks and take his seat Next TO
having his investments pan out profit
ably the deacon has an ardent yearning
to find that wicked boy. He wants 20

A FOREST MONARCH FALLEN. y
The King of Trees Laid Low by the Pitiless
Ak of the Woodsman.

The Atng OF Trees Laid Low by the Pitiless
Ak of the Woodsmau.
Alta California;
On Friday last, the west bank of Austin
creek, the ruthless woodman's az laid low
one of natures kingliest growths. For
1000 years his vegetable majesty had lifted
his proud head annually nearer the clouds
and taken upon himself, month by month
more and more of that colossal bulk which
marks the true forest king. 1t measured 3S
feet in girth 8 feet above the ground and was
80 feet high. 1t took two most accom-
plished axmen, with the best of modern
tools, nearly day and quarter to cut it
away to the point where its own vast
weight caused it to topple to its fall.
With that wonderful skill which only
long experience gives these veteran axmen,
under the direction of Foreman Soper, laid
the monster so exactly as to drive a stake
previously set 200 feet from its base, on the
bank of the creek. Even at that point the
great tree was ~ feet around, and the upper
100 feet crashed down across the creek,
swept down the telegraph line. snapped two
telegraph poles short off and fell across the
railway track of the North Pacific Coast
Railroad. The fall shook the earth in a
local earthquake felt half mile of, sent
up clouds Of dust, completely obscuring the
great trunk, and sent forth a report like
heavy artillery.

709-DECAPITATION.

You'll find me on the field of battle,
Where cannons roar and small arms rarIle,
Where carnage holds its direful reyel,
And deeds Of men seem only evil.
Amid this scene so dire and dread,
Let me be slain-cut off my head
But think you now I'm really deadf
am transformed, no longer bad,
Pm something jovial now and glad.
And have my place where mirth and joy
And frolic mix without alloy.
Thus the decapitating hand
May sometimes WELD a magic wand.
