TENDERNESS.

Not unto every heart is Gods good gift
OF simple tenderness allowed, we meet
with love in many fashions when We lift
First to our lips lies waters, bitter sweet;
Love comes upon Us with rcsistless power
OF curblcss passion and with hcadstrong will |;
II plays around like Aprils breeze and shower,
Or calmly flows, a rapid stream and still
II comes with blesscdneSs anto the heart
That welcomes il Alright, or-bitteF fate
1t wrings the bosom with so fierce smart
That lose, we cry, is crueler than hate
And then ali! mel When love has ceased TO
bless,
Our broken hearts cry out ssr tenderness.
We long for tenderness like that which hung
About us lying on our mothers breast;
A selfish feeling, thut no pen or tongue
Can praise Alright, since silence sings IL best;
\ love as far removed from passions heat
As from the chillnesS of lis dying fire.
\ love TO lean when the failing feet
Begin 10 totter and the eyes to tire
In youths brief heyday hottest love we seek,
The reddest rose we grasp-buu when il dies,
God grant thrt later blossoms, -vtolets meek,
May spring for beneath lfe's autumn
skies.
God grant some loving one be near 80 bless

An African Story Accredited to EInIn
Pasha-
Emin Pasha, the story Of whose res
cue from Central Africa IS wei known
10 the world, is an enthusiastic student
of natural history, and had made coll
lection at his headquarters on the Up
per y lie, which he was compelled to
abandon.
One of the objects OF his interest in
the equatorial province was a species
of chimPanzee, and Mr.. Stanley tells
some remarkable stories regarding
Emin's observations.
According To Stanley's account. the
equatorial chimPanzee is not greatly
the inferior in intelligence Of some OF
the human beings found there.
The forest of Msongwa is infested By
tribe of ehimpanzees of great stature,
whs make almost nightly raids on the
villages and little plantations of the
MSwa natives, carrying away their
bananas and other fruits. There is
nothing very remarkable about this
fact, since many kinds of animals make
pillaging foCays upon the habitations of
men: but the surprising part Of Emin's
narrative II Lhc statement that IN these
thieving raids the chimpanzees make
use - li..h-cI Js.-1..cs TO hunt out the
fr-,lit
If had not myself been a witness
of this spectacle Mr.. Stanley reports
Emin as saying. nothing would ever
have made me believe that any race of
monkeys possessed the art of making
fire"
On one occasion. Emin says. CHM
panzee OF this intelligent tribe stole
drum from the huts of his Egyptian
troops and made off with it, beating it
as he ran.
The monkey took the drum to the
headquarters of his own people" who
were evidently much charmed with it,
for the Egyptian soldiers often heard
the monkeys beating IL vigorously but
irregulariy. Sometimes in the middle
of the night some sleepless chimpanzce
would get up and 60 to beating the
drum
just what the other chimpanzees
thought of this midnight musical per
formance will never be known posi-
lively. But from the fact that no
sound of battle and slaughter among
the intelligent chimpanzees ever fol-
lowed, the Egyptians were forced to
conclude that they liked it--N. Y. Sun
