A sensation was nipped in the bud the

1t happened this way: A worthy bache-

noon, and, his eye lighting on an article

came to something that made him throw
down his paper, go to the table and take
therefrom the Bible, explaining this IN

"Was Methuselah the Oldest man, after

After turning over the leaves for some
minutes he came upon the passage he
wanted, and read, And all the days OF
Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and
nine years, and he died" Then he began
turning over the leaves again, humming a
tune to himself Suddenly he stopped, put
down the open book on the table, and read
aloud: "And Major lived nine hundred
and twenty years, and begat Terah; and
Major lived after he begst Terah a hun
bred and nineteen years"

THE MILKY WAY.

Over tho Milky Way,
Tho ancient Hindoos said,
Unseen by light OF day.
To Swarga go the dead.
Along its cleaning reach,
Between tn ethereal poles,
When Yama calls them, each
Must tread the bridge OF souls-
Ovor the MILKY Way,
Sang Grecian poets Old
Once, driven far astray,
The suns red chariot rolled.
And each Olympian god
That same wild path above
With winged sandals trod
Up to the throne OF Jove.
Over the Milky Way,
The mortimer tell with pride,
As ray meets answering ray
Sulahmid met his bride.
Lonely in heaven afar,
His loves resistless might
Built out, with star on star,
That yiaduct Of light.
Over the Milky Way
Our later fancy runs
With science self at play
Among its maze Of suns,
Where reason can divine,
As sages wisely guess,
Those thicker orbs outline
The cosmic wilderness
Renoteness infinite,
Where sight its course may arGo,
Where thought may fearless fit,
And touch creations vergel
But swifter faith o'erieaps
The fairness of the spheres
To where Gods splendor sweeps
Thro' all tn eternal years
His love yon pathway high
Built TO LIES summit land,
And babe this emblem sky
Tell US, who longing stand,
As stars in countless sum
One stream Of light prolong,
There joys 30 frequent come
They make one all day song.
An, not In vain for hope,
And not in vain for me,
That lane up heavens blue cope
Trails its white nebul8:
see the same eyes glow
That looked where Jacob lay,
And the same glad wings go
Over the Milky Way.
