A little corner, with its crib
A little mug, a spoon, bib.
A little tooth, SO pearly white,
A little rubber ring to bite.
A little plate all lettered round,
A little rattle to resound.
A little creeping-see! she stands!
A little step 'twixt outstretched hands.
A little doll with faxen hair,
A little willow rocking chair,
A little dress of richest hue,
A little pair of CATERS blue.
A little school day after day
A little scboolma' am to obey,
little study-soon tits past
A little graduate at last.
A little mufY for winter weather,
A little jockeyhat and feather,
A little sack with funny pockets,
A little chain, a ring and lockets.
A little walk in leafy June,
A little talk while shines the moon,
little reference to papa,
A little planning with mamma.
A little ceremony grave,
A little struggle to be brave,
A little cottage on a lawn.
A little kiss-my girl was gone!

An incident worth relating refers to
the adventures OF a man who went to
a certain railway station in New Jer-

named Morrow, where station had
been opened only few days previous

"Does this train go to Morrow

in q great hurry, and pointing to Il

every indication of speedy departure.

ticket agent, CURLY. He thought the
man was trying to be funny" as the
saying goes.

'No. it goes yesterday, the week af.

"Well. then, said the agent sternly,
"why don't you go tomorrow. and not

'.But, my dear SIR" exclaimed the
bewildered inquirer. sit is important

At this critical juncture when there
was some danger that the mutual mis-.

years ago. 1t was more than FIRE

air winter bath. 1t was daily insti-
tuition, from autumn till the following
springtime. zero temperature not
daunting. The bathing place was kept
open by cutting and removing the ice
as often as necessary. The daily bath
was abandoned after the ice disap-
pearcd. because the zest and glow of
the reaction were missed. The bath,
as may be imagined, was n bold plunge
a seconds disappearance. and then n
hasty retreat to shelter for the vigor-
GUS application of II crash towel 1t
may be superlluous to say that there
was no dawdling between the towel
application and the DOMINIC of the
warm suit that had been thrown off IA
moment before. 1t was sought. re-
member, to extract as much fun and
good humor as possible from the exer-
else. by introducing often some little
competitive scheme. For instance,
the one who could emerge from the
icy plunge with the broadcast and
blandest smile wreathing his features
was rewarded with vociferous braves
from the group of onlookers. Suffice
1t to say that the 'smiles" were often
quite forced and artificial, but were not
the less provocative of merrimcnt in
the spectators. The bathers laughed
at pneumonia and all kindred ailments
that flesh is heir to. If any caution
were needed it might be added that
tones of the above kind are for those
only who enjoy robust health.

~ Don't Believe That.

Stepney, was once requested to visit
man who protested to be skeptic.
Speaking to him of his need OF saliva

to Christ as the only and all-sutficient
Savior who gave himself as a ransom
for sinners, that they, through him.
might obtain forgiveness and be recon-
ciled TO God.
Hearing this, the dying man said:

you wish you could; and that. II you

Sermons and Prayers,

Mr.. Sturgeon recently revealed a
little OF his own individuality while
reviewing a book on Methodism in

this criticism OF u sermon. -
"Ah say. mister, you preeched a

Mr.. opurgeon scarcely remembers
better criticism" than this, and savs
that it might be applied to many of
the discourses and speeches which
one hears nowadays.
Another story tells of a not very
fluent young man, who, being in the
habit OF saying in his prayers, Lord.
help me to pray was answered one
night by an old mans ejaculation,
"And the Lord help thee to give
over"
"How heartily" remarks Mr.. Spur
geon, could we say Amen to such a
prayer in the case of a long winded
BROTHER
Mr.. Sturgeon also likes the story OF
the clergyman. who, at noisy prayer
meeting, commended silence and
said,-
"My dear friends, the Lord is not
deaf. Now, don't you think you could
pray little more quietly?"
