A SUMNER SOLITUDE.


Broad slopes, rolcd rcgally in purple ling,
Whore green, moist moss and scented thymc
lie hid:
And harcbclls hang tho wind stirred gruss
arnid
And ferns and foxsloves fringe the peat stained
spring.
Hero flames yellow tuft of furZc, and there
A narrow pn,ch Of vivid color shows
The ant built hillocks where the cistus grows;
And ruddy brackcn starts up everywhere.
The scattered shccpstrny sngly o'or the waste;
Out yondcr rise II pair of startled snipc,
And seek fresh shelter with tnid haste.
And far out west there CLEANS the wide gray
MAIN
A silver glory where the sunspritc spills
His subtle chnrm-aud meath the northern
hills
Faint smoke goes up of itcs of the plain.
A silent, solemn place and holy ground,
Where God speaks in IA still small voice, which
) they
Hear not who hurry by; but those who stay
And hcarkcn catch the tender whispered sound,
And hearing, gain Il strange strong peace Of
heart;
A new, sweet patience for the pains of life;
A calmcr courage for its stern, fierce strife;
A conscious power to do noblcr part

His Sight Was Te,escoptc.

The official of a leading railway COM
pany tells a good story about one of the
engine drivers of his line. The engine
driver was growing old, and frequent
reports were made to the directors that
his eyesight was not us good as it should
be. This the old man stoutly denied,
but nevertheless there is every reason
to believe that his eyes We're getting a
trife dim. However, he stoutly main-
tanned that his eyes We're not only strong,
but phenomenally strong, and that these
criticisms were made by jealous fellow
engine drivers.
The test for eyesight on that line was
made by Il doctor who lived in II house
facing Il large common. When he wished
to test the mems eyes he used to say,
~LoOk over there and see what you can
6ee." This fact had got known to the
employees of the railway, and when the
old engine driver was going to be ex-
amined lie arranged with his son that he
should take his bicycle about half mile
across the common and stoop down and
oil it.
In due course the old engine driver was
led to the window and the doctor said,
as usual, 'What can you see."
The old man peered ont and said:
"Well, l see young man STOPPING
down beside n bicycle
hn55yHn:" rer.:c;, r:i,.:-;. tta1e doctor; II cam
not see anything at ALL"
"Gammon!' said the engine driver;
"can't you see it? Why, he's oiling it,"
On this the doctor took up pair of
field glasses on the table and looking
out behind quite plainly saw IL young
man STOPPING down oiling his bicycle.
Magnificent sight!' he said; ''mag-
uificent!' and to this day the engine
driver is taking his forty shillings II
week with striking regularity. - Ex-
change.
