A GIRLS ESSAY ON THE cow.

The following is a little girls essay on
the COW:
ga COW is an animal with four legs on
the under side. The tail is longer than
the legs, but is not used to stand on. The
cow kills flies with her tail. The COW has
big ears that wiggle on hinges; so does hel
TAIL The cow is bigger than the calf, but
not big as an elephant. She is made Sc
small that she can 60 into the barn when
nobody is looking. Some cows are black
and some hook. A dog was hooked once,
She tossed the dog that worried the cat
that killed the rat. Black cows give white
milk, so do other cows. Milk men sell
milk to buy their little girls dresses, which
they put water in and chalk. Cows chew
cuds, and each finds its own to chew. Thai
is all there is about COWS

WOMAN PARLIAMENT.

Ii is merely question of time when
women shall enter Parliament Education
will remove the popular supposition that il
women were in Parliament they would
waste the time of the House in frivolous
talk. Experience shows that in England,
at least, the contrary is the case. Women
as Poor Law Guardians, members ofCeun-
ty Councils and School Boards, are most
assiduous in their work, and free from ver-
bosity and frivollty. The fact is that pub.
lie men aae far more addicted to these vices
and meannesses, popularity attributed to
women, and without their virtues. These
are Cardinal Manning's words, and if His
Eminence were not Cardinal, be would bs
Prime Minister of England.

Position has much to do with several
emergencies i'll saving human life. For
instance, the full-blooded, purple-faced
apopIectic patient must be assisted to sit
upright-frmly kept there-and must not
be laid down. You may make his nose
bleed, if you can, by leeching him in the
nostril, but yoa must keep his head up.
The fainting patient, on the contrary,
must be held up by the heels, propping the
mattress at foot of bed by chairs and
boxes, to let all blood flow to the heart.
The patient who is snffocating by choking,

FOR SATURDAY EVENING

Chafed and worn with worldly care,
Sweetly, Lord, my heart prepare;
Bid this inmost tempest cease;
Jesus, come and whisper peace.
Hush the whirlwind of thy VIII;
With Thyself my spirit fill;
End in calm this busy week,
Let the sabbath gently break.
Sever, Lord, these earthly tics
Fain my soul to thee would rise;
Disentangle me from time,
Lit me to purer cline;
Let me cast away my load,
Let ME now draw near to God.
Gently, loving Jesus, speak;
End In calm this busy week.

PRAY WITHOUT CEAsING.

Far, far away
The bells peal "Pray,
Pray at the dying of the day."
Ger levels dim
The sweet sounds swim.
The cadence of seraph's hymn.
Vibrant and low.
More tenuous, slow.
Down the horizons verge they GO
Heavy with care.
In burrows bare.
Two toilers hear and bow in prayer.
The bells ring 'Cease,
Rest and release,
Come with the night falls blessed peacer
The music rare,
Throbs through the air,
Suffusing it with faith and prayer.
As angels sing
The blest bells ring,
And 10! The toilers see the King.
They hear him say.
"Come rest and pray,
l, too, was weary in the way"
o, ye that moil
Yoked to the soil,
still ye are nobier than your toll,
o, ye that piod,
Turning the sod,
Your worship lifts you up to Godl
Not on the earth
Had ye your BIRTH
Other are ye, of better worth,
Spirits, not clay;
Children of day;
Not beasts of burden--souls that pray

1t rings again.
The Angelus soundeth now as then.

How far and near,

Mr.. W. L. Calm has completed the com
platiOn and publication of tho seventh
biennial edition of the Wheeling City Di-
rectory, and the work will be put in the
hands of the subscribers tomorrow. The
work is by far the largest and most com
prehensive Directory ever issued in this
city or State, ii containing 113 pages.
Every point of Importance that would in
anv way enhance the value of the directory
has been included in the book.
The new directory, which was printed
throughout in the book department of the
REGISTER. is handsomely gotten up in all
mechanical details. and is local library
of information, which should be in the pos
session of every citizen. a REGISTER re-
porter who glanced through the directory
Yesterday found that there were BIS pages
taken up with the alphabetical list of names
of citizens the number of names by actual
count being l6,4S7 Multiplying this num-
Der by 2is, the number of inhabitants to
each name, shows Wheeling to have Il
population of over 10000. As Mr.. Calm
states in his predatory remarks, publishers
of directors throughout the country differ
as 10 the ratio of inhabitants TO the num-
Der of names of adults given i'm the direc-
tory. Some of the western cities use as
high as b. quite a number of cities use

This list Of names is very much larger
than that contained in the last directory,
and indicates in an unmistakeable manner
the growth and prosperity of Wheeling
The business directory, which extends
from page 49, 10 page 5l1. shows a CORES
bonding increase in the number of new
manufacturing and mercantile enterprises,
and the entire book shows at ii glance that
