DIED,


WAKELAND.-On April Sd, 1892, HARRY
BUTLER WAKELAND, aged l year and
months. Gods finger touched him and: he
slept.
Just at the dawn of day
My darling passed away
TO brighter lands.
And he was welcomed DER
To the happy golden shore
BY angel bands.
Safe on the Saviour's breast,
sweet and blessed rest
To him is given.
But oh twas hard to part,
And my lonely broken heart
Is starved for heaven.
The thoughts that fill his sinless soul,
The bliss that he doth feel,
Are numbered with the secret things
Which God will not reveal.
But | know the angels fold him close
Beneath their glitterng WINGS
And sOothe him with song that breathes
OF Heavens divinest things.

The Maaonnas Of po,t,ssrli.

AS we examine the various madonnas
by Botticeli in the galleries of London,
Berlin, Paris and Florence we cannot
fail to be struck by the ardor of emotion
that seems to have animated the painter
in his search for the perfect type Of
beauty realized in the 'Crowning of the
Virgin" The construction of the head
of the Virgin is essentially the same in
all Botticelli's pictures, but the fieshly
mask and the expression vary, and the
final charm of each one remains an un-
decipherable puzzle.
We feel that this madonna is an inti-
mate vision of the ideal woman who
Unparalleled" the painters soul; so
Dante speaks of Beatrice, the object of
SURPRISING desire. We marvel at the
mouth, at the eyes. at the eyelids, at the
sweep of the brows, at the thick golden
threaded hair. at the splendor of the
draped head over which angels hold a
crown, at the beautiful color of the
flesh. which suggests a souvenir of the
Vita Nuova."

In a fair woman: 50 much and not more;
She is as high as natures skill can soar,
Beauty is tried by her comparison.

A BEAUTIFUL SCENE.
Happy school Children In an Indianapo-
his Schoolroom

lis Schoolroom.
Ia Indianapolis entered one of the
rooms containing the youngest children
at the time of the opening exercises.
The scene l encountered was a glimpse
of fairyland. was in room full of
bright aud happy children. whose eyes
We're directed toward the teacher, not
because they were forbidden TO look in
any other direction, but because to
them the most attractive object in the
room was their teacher. She under
stood them. sympathized and loved
them, and did all in her power to in
terest them and make them happy.
The room itself was charming. The
window sills were filed with living
plants, and living plants We're scattered
here and there throughout the room.
The teachers desk was literally strewn
with flowers, and upon each of the chill
dren's desks flowers had been placed to
welcome the little ones to school.
The book used during the reading les
son was the book of nature-the plant
they had just been studying. The scene
presented by the happy little children,
each with flower in his hand, surround
ing the teacher, who was smiling upon
them, was truly beautiful.
For reading matter the children were
called upon for sentences expressing
thoughts concerning their flowers. The
sentences were written upon the board
by the teacher, and when a number of
them had been written the pupils began
to read them. The children were inter-
ested because they all took an active
part in the lesson from the beginning to
the end. They were all observing, all
thinking.
Some of the little ones even committed
the crime Of laying their hands upon the
teacher, and she so far forgot herself as
to fondle them in return. Yet the dis
cipline was perfect. What is perfect
discipline in the classroom but perfect
attention. There was no noise, there
were everywhere signs of life, and such
signs of life as become a gathering of
young children.-Dr. j. M. Rice in Fo-
rum

THE BIG LAGOON.
An Interesting Formation ON the North
ern Coast Of California

ern Coast of California
On the northern coast of California,
some thirty miles below the mouth OF
the Klamath river, is one of the most
interesting natural formations TO be
found in this country, known as the Big
lagoon. Here the coast, which runs
north and south up to this point, takes a
sharp turn inland, bordered by very
high hills, running to distance of
about three miles, then turning out
again makes sharp bay almost V
shaped, and for ages past a sand bar has
been washing itself up across this bay
until the bar has raised mp out of the
water some ten or twelve feet, having a
width Of about 100 feet and length of
four miles, reaching across the entire
bay.
This bar is in the shape of roof.
When there is a storm the breakers will
roll up one side of it, break over, and
run down into the bay inside, and it is
novel sight TO stand there and watch
the waters, mountain high on one side
and perfectly calm on the other, the
line between the two at intervals hidden
altogether.
This bar is sort of short cut and can
be traversed on horseback. In a storm
the horseman will one minute be high
and dry on land, the next minute a
large wave viii roll up and running
under the horses feet to the depth of a
foot or more, the rider will be for an
instant four miles or SO at sea on horse
back, with no land nearer than the high
bluffs of the mainland in sight.
Moss agates may be found in abun-
dance on the pebbly beach, and when the
sun shines they glitter with dazzling
brightness.
The wild duck that frequent this part
of the coast literally fill this inland bay,
and the passing hunter, should he take
shot at them, will raise such cloud
and such quacking that he viii think
all the ducks of the earth have gathered
there. Occasionally some wild beast
like bear or panther will be found
crossing this bar, and the Indians have
much sport when such thing happens,
the animal rarely escaping capture or
death
Here the Digger Indians abound, liv-
ing on the shellfish, which they catch
along the beach, seldom going over the
ridge of hills to capture a deer, which
are plentiful. 1t would astonish Yale
or Harvard football man to come upon
this scene some bright morning at low
tide and see the squaws and children
playing lacrosse ON the beach. They get
SO excited with their sport that they
keep it up until the tide drives them
from the beach, often staying there un-
til they have to chase the ball down into
the surf. Detroit Free Press.
