Attempted Suicide a Crime.

A recent report Of the New York
Board of Health furnishes some facts
of interest as to the number of suicides
in that city since September. 1881.

an attempt at suicide crime. Prior
to that date the number of suicides in
New York was ut the annual rate OF
IA to million of inhabitants During
the last eight years the number has not
increased. although the population has
been steadily increasing. While the
number Of suicides by the use of fire.
arms has decreased, there has been .
contemporaneous increase in the num-
ber of deaths by poison. This in:

LOVE Is LIGHT.

FAT evenfido Il snail DC Hen&
Ny little girl. 80 brave by day,
Grows timid ~ the shadows fall.
I can not charm her fears away:
Ny reasons have no force at al.
She pleads, with ali her childish might
That she may have light.
! calm her fears, and stroke her hair;
tell her Of the angels near
OF God, whose love is everywhere,
And Christ, to whom each child is dear.
She hears. but only clasps me tight,
And begs me for light.
But when say II can not be.
And strive to mako her understand
Just why, she makes another plea
That will stay and hold her hand.
She whispers, as we kiss goodnight:
"Thats better than light"
And thus, content, she falls asleep.
Ny clasp grows closer on her hand;
Musing: God doth His wisdom keep
In childish lips. understand
That, in that other, darker night,
IT'S love that makes It light.
I, too, have shrunk IN childish dread
From that dumb darkness that doth creep
And thicken round the dying-bed,
And, fearful, felt could not sleep
without light understand,
Tis light to hold Loves hand.

his battered hat to me deferentially as
he did so.

such manifestation of politeness in
