Which Road Would You Take?

If you could go back to the forks of the road,
Back the long miles you have carried your load,
Back to the place where you had to decide
BY this way CT that through your life to abide,
Back to the sorrow, back to the care,
Back to the place where the future was fair,
If you were there now a decision to make,
Opilgrim Of sorrow, which road would you takei
Then after you'd travelled the other long track,
Suppose that again to the forks you went back:
After you found that its promises fair ''
Were but delusion that led to a snare, ..
That the road that you first travelled with sighs
and unrest,
Though dreary and rough, was most graciously
blest
With balm for each br,lise and charm fol
each ache,
Opilgrim of sorrow, which road would you take7
Ambition.
heard a saying in Egypt, that ambition
Is Like the sea wave, which, the more you
drink,
The more you thirst; yea, drink too much, as
Have done on RATS OF wrecks-it drives you
mad.
-Tennyson.
Be Mcrciful.
Though justice be thy plea consider this
That in the course Of justice none of us
Should see salvation; we pray for mercy,
And that same prayer doth teach us all to rem
der

To the Typo.
He's grimy handed fellow,
But his smile is bright and mellow,
And his apron can't conceal his manly heart
He's our certain, sure salvation,
For we'd get long vacation
II his judgment didn't fix our clumsy part
When we send u haSty poem,
Or Il soulful sonnet throw him,
Written on Il ragged botting pad in chalk,
With no thought OF dots or dashes-
Just Il lot of scrawling slashes-
Why, it's then he makes his type get up and
talk.
He eliminates our blunders-
They are often comic wonders
Braces up our lines and capitals supplies;
What correction gives our spelling
There's no hope of ever telling,
But he crosses all our ts and dots our is.
And to all such doctored "batches,"
Honest fellow, he attaches
Not his name, but ours in letters bold and plain,
But the world shall give him credit,
For us soon as it has read it
Twill be known our sins have been absolyed
again.
To the typo, then, a bumper
Let it be a rousing jumper
May compositors no sorrow eer detect,
But with JOY their "case'' adorning
Be up early in the morning
Our last manuscript to wade through-and cor
rect!

And SO for the sake of old friendship venture
to tell you the truth
AS plainly perhaps and as bluntly as might In
our earlier youth. :.
Five summers ago when you wooed her you
stood Oh the self same plane,
Face to face heart to heart never dreaming
your souls could he parted again.
She loved you at that time entirely, in the
bloom OF her lifes early May,
And it is not her fault, repeat it, that she does
not love you today. =
Nature ne yer stands STILL nor souls either. They
ever go up or go down,
And hers has been steadily soaring-but how
has it been with your own?
She has struggled and yearned and aspired-
grown psrer and wiser each years
The stars are not farther above you in yon lu1ni-
nous atmosphere!
For she whom you crowned with fresh roses
down yondcr five summers ago
Has learned that the first Of our duties to God
and ourselves is to grow
Her eyes they are sweeter and calmer, but their
vision is clearer as well;
Her voice has tenderer cadence, but is pure
a silver bell.
Her face has the look worn by those who with
God and his angels have talked;
Inc White robes she wears are less white than
the spirits with whom she has walked
And you? Have you aimed at the highest? Have
you, too, aspired and prayed?
Have you looked upon evil unsullied? Have you
conquered it undismayed?
Have you, too, grown purer and wiser as the
months and the years have rolled on? :.
Did you meet her this morning rejoicing in tho
triumph of victory won?
Nay, hear mel The truth cannot harm you.
When today in her presence you stood,
w as the hand that you gave her as white and
clear as that of her womanhood?
90 measure yourself by her standard. Look
back on the years that have fled,
Then ask, If you need, why she tells you that
the love Of her girlhood is dead!
She cannot look down to her Iover-her love-
like her soul, aspires
He must stand by her side, or above her, who
would kindle its holy fires
NOW. farewell! For the sake of old friendship
have ventured to tell you the truth
AS plainly perhaps and as bluntly as mightfn

A Metal That Hardens Steel,

Tho reason that tho mixture of tung.
stem with steel gives the latter SO great u
degree Of hardness that it readily
scratches glass and quartz seems to DO
revealed by a discovery recently made
in Germany. A definitely crystallized
compound Of iron and tungsten has been
discovered, the crystals being so hard as
to scratch topaz. Tungsten Ia a brittle
white metal, almost as heavy as gold.
The crystals, remarks The Paper Trade,
rs formed by its combination with iron,
in the proportion Of n atom of iron to
two of tungsten, are silver gray and very
brilliant. 1t is thought that when tung-
stem is alloyed with steel some of the
compound just described is formed in
the mass, thereby producing the remark
able increase in the hardness of tho steel.
This is an interesting example of the
value that n metal may lend to the 9th
or, for, until the discovery that II could
be used in hardening steel, tungsten, al
though it occurs in considerable abun.
dance, was practically useless and with
out value.-New York Times.

Queer Phenomena OF Falling Bodies.


I am unable to say who first noticed
the peculiar caprices of q stone or other
heavy body dropped from tho ton of q
high tower, but it is nevertheless a curl
II fact that such objects invariably fall
slightly to the east of the perpendicular
line. Persons Of inquiring turn of mind
who ask why this Is as it is may find an
answer in the following: All falling bod.
les partake of the earth's eastward mo-
ton to a greater or lesser extent. There
fore during the time occupied by o stone
in falling from the top of q high tower
or other eminence the earth's rotary mo
ton has carried it an appreciable dis
lance to the east. The initial impetus
of the stone has carried it to the east
ward also, therefore it strikes the earth
to the east Of the perpendicular, vary
ing in degree according to the height
from which 1t has fallen.
A curious article on this subject may
be found in the Leipsic Zeitung of May
D. 1880, page 3. The author of the ar
ticle, who has given it the title Of "The
Nonperpendicularity Of High Towers"
claims that the tower on st. Peters ca
thedral at Rome leans IL inches to the
east.-St. Louis Republic.

A Singular Coincidence.

The chaplain Of an American Jail
vouches for the following. A little boy
was taken by his parents to visit the
prison, and on passing one of the cells
in which u notorious criminal had been
incarcerated his father playfully pushed
him in and closed the door upon him.
The child, overcome by some vague ter
ror, screamed aloud and could scarcely
be comforted by his mothers caresses.
Years passed. The lad half thought.
lessly fell into crime and was only re-
called to his better nature on finding
himself, having been sentenced to o term
Of imprisonment, In the identical cell
into whi:h he had been momentarily
thrust as q child.

Milford, Miss and tho Dor.

A travellers tale Of British phlegm i.
told in the following terms: A French
man was seated in o smoking carriage
and had for his companion a "milord
Anglais." Enter q British miss-of
course with q plaid and protruding teeth
and 4 Skye terrier. She sat opposite the
Milford. He politely informed her that
shc had by mistake got into n smoking
carriage. She made not the slightest an.
swcr, but sat grimly on.
Tho MILFORD threw away his cigar, much
to tho establishment of tho Frenchman,
who,% according to the story, sat watch
ing what would happen. When they
reached tho next station, tho MILFORD said,
with tho cold dignity of his race and
cast: MADAM can now change into q
nonsmoking carriage. If she does not,
shall assume that she does not mind
smoke and shall light another cigar"
Madam said not u word, but stared in
front Of her. The train went on again,
and tho milo,d lighted up. When his
cigar was we'll alight and the train In
motion, the lady bent forward, took the
cigar out Of tho milord's mouth and
threw il ont of tho window. The MILFORD
not only did not make any remark, but
h o did not even seem disturbed. All he
did was to wait q minute, and then to
bend over the lady, seize the Skye ter.
rier, which was lying in her lap, and
fling 1t out Of tho window.
OF this act the lady, to the complete
establishment Of the French spectator,
took 10 notice whatever. At the next
station both the lady and the MILFORD got
out, but without exchanging a word in
regard to the cigar and dog incident,
while the Frenchman turned over in his
head an etudc on tho subject of Lies

Announcements of Marriages That Have
been Unccremoniously Interrupted.
A few years ago q ludicrous, albeit
In Larkhall. A rustic couple, after hay
ing had the banns published the pre-
scribed number Of times, proceeded to
the church to be joined in holy wedlock.
The service was conducted without a
hitch until the officiating clergyman mr.
rived at that part where he asked, evil
liam Wisher, wilt thou have this woman
to be thy welded wi!e.' when the BRIDE
groom replied with some establishment
that his name VA not William Wisher.
The ceremony was of course suspend
ed, and on investigation being made as
to the cause Of the mistake 1t transpired
that the bridegroom had written to the
sexton Of the church requesting him TO
have the banns published, and concluded
his letter thus, 80 no more from your
well wisher and Mary Williams" The
sexton, ~supposing that William Wisher
was the name of the intending Benedict,
published the banns accordingly, and
the disappointed couple were compelled
to await the publication of the banns in
they proper names.
The precentor Of n country parish
church near Arbroath ono Sunday an.
nounced from his place that there was
. solemn purpose of marriage between
Alexander Sphinx of Fishers loan and
Elspeth Hackett of Burn wynd," when
the parish beadle, who was something
OF u character, suddenly arose and un.
tremendously interrupted the proceed
ings by exclaiming: That's wrang!
That's wrang! It's no Sanders Sphinx o
