TN THE LIGHTHOUSE.

The light in the lighthouse tower Goes round and round and round, Like a fiery eye which searches For that which Is never found: The sea, on the rocks beneath it. Calls still for what does not come; While the heart Of the lighthouse keeper Yearns ever. but ever ts dumb. The sea birds dash on the lantern And huttering. die in the night; Tn useless. vain endeavor To reach the beacon light, The winds cry out forever For that which no quest may reach, But the Keepers strong desire Is far too deep for speech. Night after night in the lantern He sets the light aglow; Night after night complaining He hears the waves below. He hears the winds fierce crying And the sea-bird's death note Shrill; But the pain of his loves denial He suffers and Is stlll.

An Angling Incident.

A contributor to the Forest and IStredm gives this account of an an gling episode on Michigan trout stream:
 As l wound my joy-inspiring way along the river, was ever alert for the radiant trout, and enticed many . one to my quivering bait and to my creel. I knew my companion would hang his banner on high if he badly defeated me, and therefore 1 worked with might and main, passing no tempting spot unfished that thought contained the quarry. AS 1 waded along a sloping bank, thick with sedste alders, my eyes were gladdened with a sight of little boy and girl sitting under a shade of a spreading oak. The girl had bright and winsome look, with curls of gold and cheeks like apples, and wore & straw hat aslant on her yellow hair that gave her de- cidely & prepossessing appearance. Her barefooted brother with his bright eyes, sunny face, and rustic costume was as picturesque as a shepherd boy. The little people so attracted me that I waded ashore to have 6 chat with them. The boy eyed me keenly as approached, and asked if had many trout, and if I were fishingwith a fly. opened my basket and let the chil- dren take peep at the golden -hued fish, and then confessed to the boy that was one of those contemptible bait fishermen. He then told me that he had some fifteen trout iu his fish box, which was fastened in the water near by, and that he wished to dispose of them, but he said that he always had poor luck in selling to the bait fishermen, as they always caught enough to satisfy themselves.
 "You don't sell to fy-fshermen?" I inquired.
 "Ohl yes, sir, quite frequently"
 "And why to them?"
 "Because at this season of the year they hardly catch any"
 @Pm surprised that these high-art anglers would buy trout"
 "They do, though, but they always tell me not to give lem away"
 "Do you?"
 "I can't, for I don't live in town. My home is down by the bridge"
 "Do you ever sell anything to bait fishermen7"
 "Very seldom, they always have 'em."
 Here the little girl quickly spoke up and said:
 "Last season he sold 6 lot to one."
 "How was that2"
 "Why, you see," said the lad, "there were two men fronting here. The first one that passed was fishing so hard that he paid no attention at all to us, only saying, Good morning children and then hurried on. After a while his partner came along, and as he passed close to me asked him if he didn't want to buy some trout. At this he smiled and came ashore and inquired how many I had. I told him twenty five. He laughed right out and said: Get lem quickp pulled my box ashore, and as put them in his basket he smiled and laughed all over, saying, I'll snow him under nowp I didn't know what that meant then, but papa explained that he wanted to beat his partner. He newer asked the price of lem, but putting his hands in his pockets he drew out some money and gave me threo dollars, and then tossed ono to
