The Brotherhood Of Man.
BY STEPHEN BERRY.

The brethren Of the mason's craft, as
ancient records TELL
Served lord and master faithfully and loved
their fellows well,
And always in their charges old, since
masonry began,
They taught the glorious lesson of the
Brotherhood of Man.
When first the great cathedrals rose, and
castles crowned the heights,
In days of minstrelsy and song. Of wars
and belted knights,
We know the quiet mason with his COM
passes and plan,
Had guilds and lodges where he taught the
Brothe, hood of Man.
When Numa founded Roman guilds and
set each trade apart,
He could not fail to give place to those
OF mason's art,
And if they had no lodges then, no doubt
the mason clan
Could then and there have learned from
him the Brotherhood of Man.
Or when the mighty khufu built, with
level and with square
His stately pyramid, we know the gentle
craft were there.
And looking on their noble work, pray tell
me il you can,
When was the time they did not teach the
Brotherhood OF Man?

A Handsome Soul.

One day boy who was taking his
first lesson in the art OF sliding down
hill, found his feet in too close contact
with lady's silk dress. Mortified and
confused, he sprang from his sled, and,
cap in hand, commenced an apology.
II beg your pardon, ma'am am
very sorry"
Never mind that" exclaimed the
lady. there is 10 great harm doue,
and YOU feel worse about it than | do. .
But your dress is ruined. thought
YOU would be angry with me for being
SO careless"
.Oh. no." she replied, "better to
have a soiled dress than ruffled tenn
per-"
''Oh, isu't she beauty" exclaimed
the lad. as the lady passed on.
"Who, that LADY, returned his
comrade. ''lt you call her beauty,
you shan't choose for me. Why, she
is old, and her face is wrinkled."
Il don't care if her face is wrinkled.''
replied the hero, ''her soul is hand
some, anyhow"
A shout of laughter followed from
which he was glad to escape. Relat-
ing the incident to his mother, he re-
marked: "Oh, mother, that lady did
me good. I shall never forget it; and
when am tempted to indulge in angry
passions, | will think Of what she SAID
better to have a soiled dress than a
ruffled temper. IS. ". Christian
