Quit Him Cold.

He was dirty and disreputable, and
as be sat on an ash barrel up on
Monroe avenue last evening just
about dusk, It was easy to see that he
was mad. His hands clutched at an
imagined foe and bis lips muttered
all the swear words which are 10 the
vocabulary of the old time tramp.
He was mad clean through.
A short distance from him on
another ash barrel, sat another tramp,
even more dirty and disreputable
than the first, if that were q pos
sibility. He was ,munehing some
thing from outsof paper bag that he
held 10 his hand and was seemingly
at peace with himself and all the
world. The first tramp shot evil
glances at him out of his bleary eyes.
and to the person who cared to listen
it was soon evident that the curses be

Large Estates an Evil.

The population of Ireland has de-
creased in fifty years from S,196, 597 to
4,706, 162. This heavy decrease is
probably mostly due to the evil results
of system which creates and en-
courages the ownership of large landed
estates. The money or other personal
property which one man may be able
to accumulate, however much there
may be of it, is pretty sure to be dis
tributed again among a large number
of individuals by natural processes
within two or three generations at the
farthest. But property in land, even
where there is no law of entail, such as
keeps the estates of English families from
being divided is much more likely to
remain undivided in possession of some
repr, sentative of the original possessor.
No greater political reforms could be in
troduced in Britain than the complete
abolition of the law of entail and the
abolition of all connection between the
State and the Church. In this country,
we think that definite limits might
justly be established with regard to the
amount of property in land which
might be possessed by any one indi-
vdual. Such laws would be in har-
mony with the Divine law.-NeD York
Weekly Witness.

The italian Girl.

She sat behind her neatly arranged
fruit stand-a girl Of fourteen-ab-
sorbed in reading her Bible. She did
not hear the footsteps of a gentleman
who was passing by, and was startled
by his question: "What are you read
ing that interests you so much?" She
timidly replied: The Word of God,
sir" "Who told you that the Bible
was the Word of God?" he inquired.
God told me, himself" she replied,
with child-like innocence. "God told
you'll Impossible! How did he tell
you? You have never seen him, nor
talked with him. How, then, could he
tell you that the Bible is his Word?" For
few seconds the girl seemed confused
and was silent. The man, who was
skeptic, and took delight in undermin-
ing the faith of people in the Scriptures,
felt confident that he had COMPOUNDED
the supplemented girl. She soon re-
covered herself, and her ready wit
came to her aid. There was a flash in
her dark eyes as she asked: "Sir, who
told you there is a sun yonder in the
blue sky above us?" Who told me?"
said the man, somewhat contemptuously,
for he fancied that the girl was trying
to hide her ignorance under an irrele-
want question; "who told me? No
body. | don't need to be told. The
sun tells this about itself. 1t warns
me, and l love its light; that is telling
enough" Sir" cried the girl with
intense earnestness, as she stood before
him with clasped hands, you have put
it right for both Bible and sun. That
is the way God tells me this is his Book.
read it and it warns my heart and
gives me light; love its light, and no
one but God can give such light and
warmth through the pages of a Book.
1t must be his. l don't want more tell
ing; that's telling enough, sir. AS sure
as the sun is in heaven, so sure is God
shining through this Book" The skep-
tic was abashed The earnest faith of
the young fruit-seller amazed him. He
could insinuate doubts into the minds
of those who have only given an intel
lectual assent to the truth that the
Bible is Gods Book, but the girls heart
experience of the power of Gods Word
was an evidence he could not shake

AAA.N5OPhJs
Bright things can never die,
Even though they fade;
Beauty and minstrelsy
Deathless were made.
What though the summer day
Passes at eve away
Doth not the moons soft ray
Solace the night?
Bright things can never die,
Saith my philosophy;
PhGbus, while passing by,
Leaves us the light.
Kind words can never die;
Cherished and blessed,
God knows how deep they lie
Stored in the breast
Like childhood's simple rhymes,
Said DER thousand times,
Ay, in all years and chimes,
Distant and near.
Kind words can never die,
Saith my philosophy;
Deep in the soul they lie,
God knows how dear.
Childhood can never die;
Wrecks of the past
Float DER the memory
Fen to the last.
Many happy thing,
Many daisied spring,
Float on Times ceaseless wing,
Far, far away.
Childhood can never die,
Saith my philosophy;
Wrecks of our infancy
Live on for aye,
Sweet fancies never die;
They leave behind
Some fairy legacy
Scored in the mind
Some happy thought or dream,
Pure as days earliest beam
Kissing the gentle stream
In the lone glade.
Yea, though these things pass by,
Saith my philosophy,
Bright things can never die,
Even though they fade.

That Cute Cabman.

A cabman appeared before a magis-

following circumstances He had been
engaged to drive lady and gentleman,
and after the lady had been set down at
her house had driven her companion
some distance farther. On being asked
his fare he told his passenger that it was
five shillings and sixpence-
Make it six shillings," was the genial
answer, and then that person pressed
three coins into the claimants hand and
hastily fed.
Unfortunately, the coins were pennies,
and not forms, and the cabman. failing
to overtake his generous client, was left
to reflect upon the deceitfulness of man
kind His reflections seem to have led
him to a remarkable conclusion. He
drove straight back to the house where
he had left the lady. represented TO her
that her companion had largely overpaid
him, and begged for his name aud ad
dress in order that ne might recufy the
mistake and repay she money. The name
and address were promptly given, sad
