On dusty rafters of the loft;
And mild-eyed oxen. breathing soft.
Sleep on the fragrant hay below.
Dim shadows in the corners hide;
The glimmering lanterns rays are shed,
Where one young lamb justlifts his head,
Tnen huddles against his mothers side.
Strange silence tingles in the air;
Through the half-open door bar
Oflight from one low hanging star
Touches baby's radiant hair
No sound-the mother, kneeling. lays
Her cheek against the little face.
Oh. human love oh, heavenly grace

Ages of silence end to night
Then to the long expectant earth
Glad angels come to greet His birth
In burst of music. love and light!

KANSAS FARMS ABANDoNED.-A citizen
of Rocks county, Kansas, who is in Atchi-
son, Kansas, says: 1.-THE people of the
western part of the State no longer try to
conceal the fact that many people have left
the country on account Of the drought
Over 4, 900 people have left Rocks county
alone. Many of those remaining are un-
able to get away. For miles over the
prairies, he says, one can see nothing but
tenantless houses and abandoned farm
machinery.

A Code for Parents.

We Gull from our contemporaries the
following rules which are worthy of being
printed in letters of gold, and placed in d
conspicuous place in every household -
1. From your children's earliest in
fancy inculcate the necessity of instant
obedience.
2. Unite firmness with gentleness. Let
your children always understand that you
mean what you say.
8. Never promise thsm anything until
you ara quite sure you can give what you
say.
4. If you tell child to do something,
show him how to do it, and see that it is
done.
5. Always punish your child for wilfully
disobeying you, but never punish in anger.
6. Never let them perceive that they
vex you, or make you lose your self com
mand.
7. If they give way to petulance or i'll.
temper, wait till they are calm, and then
gently reason with them on the impro.
prety of their conduct.
8 Remember that little present pun
ishment. when the occasion arises, is much
more effectual than the threatening of q
greater punishment, should the fault be
renewed.
9. Never give your children anything
because they cry for 1t.
10. On no account allow them to do al
one time what you would have forbidden,
under the same circumstances, at another.
II. Teach them that the only sure and
easy way to appear good is to be good.
IL. ACQUISITION hem to make their little
recitals with perfect truth.
10 Never allow talebearing.
IA Teach them self-denial, and moi
self indulgence of anger and resentfu
spirit.

PIQUA, o., Sept. 24.-Two sisters

man named Blevins, who soon afterward
went to California. A dozen years later
Sarah Wyatt married the Rev. John
Snyder and went to Michigan. In the
meantime all trace of the sister in Cali
fOrnia had been lost. The Snyders af-
ter spending five or six years in Michi-
gan were sent to establish a mission
anon9 the. Blackjack Indians, Seven
years later they went to Oklahoma on a
similer mission. Last June Mr.. Snyder
and three children died. With the three
remaining children, horse and buggy.
and little money, Mrs. Synder started
TO drive to Michigan. At Marion, Ind,
sickness came and her money gave out.
Accidentally Mrs. Snyders learned her
sister had some years ago lived at Lima,
o. After many hardships and being re-
duccd to beggary Mrs. Snyder reached
Lima only to find her sister gone to Gin
cinnati. At this place Mrs. Snyder
again gave out and Mrs. Weaver took
them in and kept them week. Yester-
day, as Mrs. Snyder and her children
we're about to leave, remark led tC
questioning which resulted III proving
Mrs. Weaver and Mrs. Snyder were the
lOng-scparated sisters.

unusually largely attended, and il Ev-

reached the camp grounds his horse

OF the reins, and in the runaway which
followed he was thrown out of the bug

and the skull fractured. He was taken
up and carried to gentleman's house
near by and medical aid summoned.

The latest reports received were up TO

there. He was then still alive, but the
doctor thought he would be dead 10y this
morning.
William Simpson and Bob Frasier,
two employees of the Pendleton fac
tory, became involved in row which
may end fatally to both. Simpson told
his sister not to go with Frasier be-
cause he was drunk. Frasier heard
this from the girl and sought Simpson
to lay him out. In the row which fol-
lowed, Frasier Shot Simpson below the

pheasant shooting expedition, and were
attracted to the bottom of dark can.

The brutes fled on the approach cf
the hunters, and the latter discOvered d
that the cause of the battle was the
mangle1 and half-devoured body of a
human being. One leg was gone
and both arms were torn off. Both
hunters had seen the unfortunate man

An Unusual Disaasa-

New BEDFORD, Sept. 17.-After five
years in the Antartic seas, the whaling
bark Petrol, Captain Edwin j. Reed, is
once more in port. Captain Reed says
that while off Patagonia several months
ago gale came up from off the shore,
during which large quantities. of fine
white powder came on the ship, choking
those who inhaled it. Next day one of
the crew was taken sick and his feet
began to swell. The swelling continued
until his whole body was effected. One
after another of the crew was similarly
taken, until thirty four had the disease.
Each swelled to almost twice his usual
size and the flesh assumed a yellOwish
hue. With nine men modification set in
and they died. Two others of the crew
were washed overheard in the gale and
drowned. Physicians here report the
epidemic as beri beri. 1t is the first
case on record of it's having come on
board ship in gale.
