most OF us this country was the cradle and
to most of us it will be the grave We
want the same glorious privileges which
we enjoy to go down to our children. We
cannot sleep well the last sleep, nor will
the pillow OF dust be easy TO our heads,
until we are assured that the God of our
American institutions in the past will be

the days that are to come. Oh, when all
the rivers which empty into the Atlantic
and Pacific seas shall pull on factory
bands, when all the great mines of gold and
silver and iron and coal shall be laid bare
for the nations. when the last swamp shall
be reclaimed and the last jungle cleared
and the last American desert Edenized,
and from sea to sea the continent shall be
occupied by more than twelve hundred
million souls, may it be found that moral
and religious influences were multiplied
in more rapid ratio than the population.
And then there shall be four doxologies

Her snnhnr.schooI Ysr.s.

One of the brightest of Elmira's little
five-year-old girls was taught an appropri-
ate verse to repeat in Sunday-school last
Sunday. She had also recently learned a
little nursery rhyme which had pro-
foundly impressed her. InSunday-school,
when her teacher called upon her to give
her verse, little Miss Five-year-old forgot
all about the hymn, and electrified the
whole infant department by rising and
solemnly repeating the following:
The owl and the eel and the warming-pan,
They went to call on the sOapfat man.
The soapfat man not within,
He had gone 10 ride on q rolling-pin;
SO they all came back by way of the town,
And TUNED the meeting-house upside down!

A TALK ABOUT THIMBLES.
SOMETHING FOR THE GIRLS TO READ
Anecdotes and Stories For the Young Folks
How He Explained HimseIf-Her Sum
day-SchooI Verse-Whose Bald Head
Are Youe-Knotty Problems.

"Betty, did you ever undertake TO sew
without thimble? If so, said grandma,
"you know how hard it is to push the
needle through the cloth, and how hard
the finger priczs and aches from the stabs
OF the sharp STEEL"
The thimble is a very small piece of
workmanship, but it is a very important
and useful one, and grandma is thankful
to the good old Dutchman who was so
clever as to invent it, although he is dead
and gone centuries ago. l think you
would like to hear what have learned
about this little instrument. 1t was
brought to England as far back as 1905 by
John Lofting, Dutchman, and was called
a thumb-bell, because it was worn on the
thumb and was shaped like bell, and
afterward it was called humble, and later
thimble, as we now call it.
Thimbles were first made OF iron and
brass. Those made of iron must have
been clumsy and heavy, and the brass dis
colored the finger; but soon these disad-
vantages were seen and steel, silver and
gold took their places.
IN the Ordinary OdHuIaCIuIe Ol lnlm-
bles thin plates of metal are placed in a
die and punched into shape, but in Paris
this industry is carried on 10 a great ex-
tent, and gold is the metal most used.
Thin sheets of sheet-iron are cut into
dies about two inches in diameter.
These are heated red-hot and struck
with punch into a number of holes,
gradually increasing in depth to give
them proper shape. The thimbie is then
polished, trimmed and indented around
its outer surface with number of little
holes by means of a small wheel. 1t
is then changed into steel by
the concentration (look that up
in the dictionary, dears) process,
secured, tempered and brought to blue
color. A thin sheet of gold is then intro
duced and attached to the steel by pol
ished steel mandrel. Gold leaf is then
applied and fastened by pressure. The
thimble is then complete.
So you see, my dears, that although so
very small, the thimble-or "finger-cap."
as the Germans call it-goes through
many different processes before it is made
ready for the work-box.

How He Explained Himself.


In family residing at the south-end is
a bright little one who is the life of the
house. Whenever any one in the house
hold does a thing which does not please
him he retaliates by saying: 81 don't
love YOU" He had said this once or twice
to his fond grandmother, and his father
rebuked him for it by saying: eff you
ever speak to your grandma again in that
way l shall be obliged to punish YOU" A
few nights later the family were at supper
and the watchful grandmother removed
from the boys plate something which she
did not think he should eat. He regarded
her sullenly for a moment and then
blurted OUT 81 don't love you, grandma"
His father glanced at him from across the
table as much as to say: "Ill settle with
you after supper. young man, and the
little fellow Immediately saw the necessity
of squaring himself with his paternal
parent, so he quickly added, "as much as
] love Jesus" Then he explained him
self by saying: "Of course, 1 don't love
any OF you as much as love Jesus" 1t
is needless to say that he was not pun

Unravel its meaning and make il more plain;
For he a tcO, so ne cudgels his brain
To get at its secret but ALL all in vain.
A prize had been offered, he thought IL TO gain.
But twas written in three which was not in his vein
And he not an inkling clew could obtain,
As small as the -four which is hidden in grain.
He neer thought of the ire of the ships on the main
What hold the vast sails and resist such a strain;
For the phantoms he lollOwed--a mystical train,
But seemed TO bewilder and drive him insane.
So he took mp the puzzle with air of diSdain,
From the table whers long it had quietly lain.
And flung 1t away, but he would not refrain,
From thinking it over, again aud again.

Whose Bald-HeRd Are You?

She had been on visit TO her grandfather,
