gether a satisfactory one. He recalled
something he had heard his mother say
about its being impossible for any one
to live unto himself, or to escape the
duties and responsibilities owed by each
to others, and that all peace and har-
mony and happiness depend upon the
good will and cheeriness and loving
kindness with which these duties are
performed. He fell asleep thinking he
would probably not try his new plan
longer than the week he had spoken
Of.
The clothing kept slipping from his
un.made bed, causing him much dis
comfort, as the GOODNESS of the autumn
night settled down. He awoke at the
sound of the breakfast bell to a keen
perception of the delightful smells Of
mutton chops. buckwheat cakes and
other good things.
We'll, he exclaimed. jumping up I'm
not gotng to live another day on apples
if | know myself. After all, he went
on as he dressed himself, Its a mean
and sneaklng thing to try and shirk
things. l get all want to eat, and
good too, he shifted eagerly as the ap-
pet!zing smell came stronger, and it s a
pity if cant do little to help on.
He was out and had the leaves raked
before breakfast, at which he appeared
with a glowing color and a sldelons
glance at mamma.
1 think I've tried it long enough,
mamma he said with smile. 4 be-
lieve III do chores and board with you
if you'll take me back
1 will, said mamma, passing him
the hot cakes.

The Twelve Handsome I&Onks,

", mamma cried Lille brown, 40
see this lovely bird
Konk!' screamed the bird, as NAM
ma Brown looked out Of the door.
He says his name Is Konk shouted
Ef1ie, laughing. He came right down
from the sky
Yes, he is u wild goose replied her
mother; and what beautiful creature
he is.
He was dark gray, and had black
stripe over his head and along bis back.
lie was limping as if be had u broken
leg.
The Brown family geese stood about
and bobbed their heads, and stared at
the new goose. Konk was much larg.
er and finer than they.
But they made up their minds to be
friendly, and soon Kouk was quite at
home with the Brown geese.
we will take good care of HIM, Eflic
and perhaps he will always live with
us,
so we will, mamma SAID Ellie.
will feed him every day
Konk stayed all winter and was very
pleasant with the other geese. But
early in the spring, one warm day, he
seemed uneasy.
He kept turning his head, and look
ing up in the sky.
All at once he cried 'Konk! and
spread his wings. Away he flew into
the air.
Far up in the sky Ettie could just see
file of wild geese sailing away. konk
flew after them and WAS soon loet to
sight.
oh, dear Konk, Etfe cried, and as
she ran to tell her mother she was wip.
ing the tears from her eyes Poor old
Konk,' she SAID we shall never see
him again.
But now, what do you think happen
ed The very autumn Eiio was sit
ting by the window, when 'konk,
Konk, and ever so many more konks
sounded close by.
Ellie ran to the door. Yes, there he
cane, the dear old konk and what do
you think ?
Another lovely konk; two konks,
three, four. five, yes, a whole dozen of
the handsome gray konks.
The first konk felt quite at home and
showed his friends all about the barn
yard. But he would not speak to his
old comrades, the Brown geese.
He had not got a broken leg this time
you see. And there he was, with his
fashionable friends, all handsomely
dressed. Geese are just as vain as some
boys and girls.
The twelve wild geese strutted about
as proud as could be. They remained
all winter, and fine times they had in
their warm goose palace.
I suppose they will fly away soon,
said Mamma Brown, one warm spring
day.
Soon after, she heard 'konks in the
sky and went out to see if her beauties
would fly.
But they did not; they came chat
terng up to see If she had anything
good for them.
The strange thing was, that they
never went away at all 1t was too
comfortable at Farmer Browns.
Now. how do YOU suppose the first
konk told his friends what good times
he had there, when he broke lis leg ?
Or Little Ones.

Nearer My Cod TO Thee

Nearer my God to Thee,
Nearer to Thee,
Lovely and sad refrain
Waited to me.
1t is sung by the worshippcrs
Over the way,
Who have gathered to praise God
THIS beautiful day.
1t floats on the air
Like an angels soft wing,
1t is pure as the dcwdrops
In sweet budding spring.
1t is sad as the house
That Death has sta,ked through,
Yet cheers like the sunlight
In Heavens own blue.
Oh, Father in Heaven,
Am nearer to Thee ?
III liycd IN Thy radiance
How happy Id be!
i'll could walk with Thee
How free from alarm
If safe in Thy bosom,
How sheltered from harm.
But oh my dear Father,
I've wandered away,
And night has succeeded
The beautiful day.
When lisping babyiprayers
On mothers knee,
was nearer my God to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.
The wine cup first tempted,
And it was SO fair,
Icould not then see
Its deceit and Its snare.
Tasted, liked it,
Lived under its sway,
And oh, I'm not near Thee,
But farther away.
With conscience half smothered
Ana pride all cut down,
No mantle of Charity
Around me was thrown.
Ny church-I passed by it,
forgot how to pray.
'Tls midnight, dear Father,
No CLEAN ocr the way.
1robbcd and murdered,
I'm bound by chain,
know it WAS sinful,
d. not complain;
But repentance has purified,
Burned up the dross,
think how you pardoned
The thief on the cross.
The birds carol sweetly,
The zephyrs pass by,
But no freedom for me,
must Ianguish and die.
Bend over me. Father,
And list while pray,
And take back the child
That has wandered away.
I'm dying, dear Father!
Can | get through these bars!
Will YOU take me and lead me
Above the brig ght stars?
The floor where | he.
Is so hard and so cold,
Oh. swing wide the gates,
Made of Jasper and gold.
haye wandered afar,
But I'm on my way home,
With tears and repentance,
I'm hcgglng to come.
Although it be stone
That raiseth me,
I'm nearer my God to Thee,
