tender life. All The afternoon he was
in a delirium. He imagined that his
mother was lowering over him, and
would stretch out the fingers of his re-
manning hand to clutch her dress - but
they clenched in emptiness. In voice
weak and plaintiye. he would cry out:
Come back, mother; your boy wants
you" When the lucid season before
death returned, he asked to have his
bundle brought from the staff wagon.
When his mothers Bible and an old
tashioped daguerreotype of his father
aud mother were handed to him he
kissed them. and said, with smile OH

happy again. Father went first. mother

words were verified. Although he
passed away like Elijah of old in bat
Ties fiery car. the spirit of the Little
Hero went up to the land where there
are no wars and no sorrows. That
night the army fell back, but before the
retreat began begrimed veterans dug
a hole with bayonets under tail elm,
and while tears stole down their bronzed
checks they wrapped Artiur'S fragile
form in blanket and placed it to rest
In its earthly bed; aud the amputated
arm and the drum and the little bundle
with the Bibleiand daguerreotype were
buried with him. A fragment of a
board was placed at the head of the
grave, upon which was carved in rude
letters, by a camp fire, these words:

Arthur loved a pencil, and paper, and
a bit of paint, and a brush better than
almost anything. He spent SO many
hours every day bending over his little

which he was always sc.ibbling the

One day he heard her speak such
words. When the stranger was gone he
came and looked up in her face.
Mamma" he said, sis it only fancy
to pass away? No, l will keep on and

little fist down hard. and over and over,

NO TIME FOR HOME DUTIES,
A Mother Who Neglected Her

teacher who had fixed the dress.
Q"Now. Mary said the latter, as the
pupil took her place in the class, Il told
you yesterday to ask your mother to
mend your dress. Why didn't you do
as 1 told you?"
The child hesitated a moment, then
meekiy said: ''Please, teacher, mother
goes to church every evening, and says
that she has got no time to fix things
for me-"
The teacher blushed: yes, blnshed for
the mother who parades her religion
and neglects her home, but said not a
word.
This story is an actual fact. The in
cident occurred in one of the public
schools in this city during the presen t

this in this city that boasts of her schol-
ariy preachers, her churches and
schools?

now, therefore, siXty-two years OF age,

A RARE BOOK.
A Volume That Is Worth Exactly
Thirty Thousand Dollars.

San Francisco Report
We see items sometimes about the
value of rare books in the hands of b.
hemians or at auction sales, but there is
now i'll San Francisco volume than
which there are few III IRE valuable in
the world. 1t is worth $4,000, not as a
fancy price, either. Thirty thousand
dollars is the actual cash value. 1t is
the register of the whereabouts of 5000
Chinese corpses in the city cemetery, ali
winch will have TO be dug up and re-
turned to China in due time, while q
diSinterment permit costs SO. The eX-
superintendent of the cemetery has the
book, and says that he made it, and
that, therefore, 1t is his own property.
The health officer thinks it belongs to
the city. We think so, too, for 1t is
clearly the duty OF the superintendent
of the cemetery to keep register or
list of the graves and their contents.
We hope that prompt action will be
taken to prevent the destruction or dis
appearance OF the book pending legal
settlement Of its ownership.
