"HANDLE WITH CARE"
he basket caretnllv Laid awav.

In the basket carefully laid away,
Grandmothers unfinished knitting work lay;
Handle with care, else the stitches will fall, ="
Grandmother said, as picked out the ball
Once more sitby her old armchair,
And into her wOrkbasket look-and there
Her knitting-work lies, needles and ball
repeat: "Have care, else stitches will fall 4"
For years have come, and these years have fed,
And grandmother, dearest Of friends, Is dead;
Her work laid By, as task well done,
A life well lived, and race well run.
And think, as look, what lesson Is taught,
What beautiful sermon those needles have
wrought,
For there It lies fnished-all but the toe
A soft little stocking for dimple-cheeked Joe
While finished and smoothly laid away,
Its little mate in the basket lay;
But who shall finish the toeless one,
That grandmother fingers 80 deity begun'
Who can knit into each stitch and each row
Grandmother's love for dimple- checked joel
Who so patiently-if stitches shall fall
As grandmother, gather them up, one and all:
Who draw up the stitches so close and so warm,
To keep Joes little soft toes from the storm,
As grandmother wouldi-alasl not one
Can finish the work her love had begun.

My parents are very anxious that

sometimes l think they are perhaps
right 1t is not proper for "a man to live

cept for pure love?"
81 should never marry except for
love-" replied, after some hesitation.
But if the one you loved did not re-
turn the affection, and there was no
hope of his ever doing so, you must
then either marry another for esteem
and try to learn to love that one, or
else you must go through life alone.

lieve she thinks well of me; SO well, in

CHICAGO, Nov. 3-With the recefpts at

vanced 10@20c
The first feeling in wheat was one of
weakness. This was attributed to the fact
that the local receipts exceeded the esti-
mate by about 80 cars, that deliveries in the
Northwest were liberal, and the clearing
weather was regarded as favorable for a
further increase of interior deliveries
Early English cables were firmer, but this
did not prevent a decided bear sentiment
on the part of the local trade and there was
pretty free selling for time, under which
prices fell of with business dull, Later re.
ports from the seaboard showed a marked
revival in the export demand, and the
clesrings from the seaboard were renorted
at 9l5, 900 bushels in wheat and flour This
caused an immediate change The earlv
sellers quickly started to get back Whist
they had sold, and there was fair invest
