REV. DR. CHARLES F. Deems delivered an ad-
| dress to young men at Association hall yestzr-
| day afternoon. His text was: ''Herein is nv
| Father glor:fled that ye may bsar fruit" In
dlsagrs eaole-looxing customers as depicted 10
the picture galleries. There is not robust one
| among them, but they are all cadaverous and
are IN general way miserable together. An
idea formed of Gods holiness is that he terrihes
men by holding them over hell and threatening
them. This is not so. No mother loves her
children as God loves his children. A man is
| not holy who does not stretch down his arm to
raise TO glory any repentant sinner"

AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE has just been re.

| an ordinary pin IN his mouth while playing to
| guard 1t from another child from whom he mad
| taken 1t. While he was running and laughing
| it was drawn into the larynx. Sharp pain was
| felt, which, however soon passed off. and moth

I ing IN good health for twenty-four years after

| was not serious After fit of violent coughing
| one day dark, hard object was expelled,

THE OLD poem Of the days of the month, en-
| titled, Thirty Days Hath September has
been changed in the New York public schools
| so that the charm and beauty of its defects
| have vanished, and it is now correct and COM
| monpece. AS it stood for century or more 1t
| ran:
Thirty days hath September,
| April, June and November,
February has twenty-eight alone,
| All the rest have thirty-one;
| Excepting leap year, that's the time
When February has twenty-nine.
The version peculiar TO New England would
| have done so far as correct rhyming goes. That
version ended with these lines:
| Except the second month alone
| Which has but twenty eight in fine,
Till leap year gives it twenty-nine
But the form in which it is taught in the pub
| lie schools is neither more correct nor as simple
| This is the part that has been subjected to
| modern improvement:
| All the rest have thirty one,
Excepting February alone,
| Which has four and twenty four
| And every fourth year one day more,
