THE QUIET HOUSE.

D, mothers, worn and weary
With cares which never cease,
With never time for pleasure,
With days that have no peace,
With little hands to hinder
And feeble steps to guard,
With tasks that lie unfinished,
Deem not your lot too hard.
know a house where childish things
Are hidden out of sight;
Where never sound of little feet
Is heard from morn till night;
No tiny hands that fast undo,
That pull things all awry-
No baby hurts to pity
As the quiet days go by.
The house is all in order
And free from tiresome noise,
No moments of confusion,
No scattered, broken toys;
And the children's little garments
Are never soiled or torn,
But are laid away forever
Just as they last were worn.
And she, the sad-eyed mother
What would she give to-day
To feel your cares and burdens,
To walk your weary way
All happiest on all this earth,
Could she again but see
The rooms all strewn with playthings
And the children round her knee

an eve witness as o whirling ball

course. The main track was 300
yards wide, and everything in that
track was swept away, wreckage-
of houses being scattered for miles
alcng its course.
At Marion only two fatalities
are reported-Mrs. Burton Madow,
aged seventy. and her daughter
Myra, aged forty. Both instantly
killed i'll the wreck Of their demo-
lished house. A dozen persons
were injured more or less seriously.
The cyclone passed from Marion
to the swamp, uprooting timber,
crossed the Mobile an3 Ohio Rail
road mile above town. destroying
a half a mile of telegraph wires
and blocking the road. After des-
troying Mariod, the cyclone cut a
-swath through the swamp, uptil
reaching Good Hope Church, two
miles east, which it wrecked also
destroying four settlements OF
negro cabins. But three persons
were fatally hurt.

The Heart Rests Eight Hours Every Day.
That wonderful piece of mechanism,
the heart, appears to work continually
day and night, from birth to death, but
in reality there are short pauses or rests
between each beat, which, though mi
mute in themselves, mount up in the ag-
gregate to eight hours out of every TWEEN
ty-four. These short pauses enable the
heart to repair the waste which constant
work entails and without which rests it
would break down. Eagle.
