THE MUSES..

The MUSES. were demi- gods, or,
rather demi- goddesses, the patrons of
literature, music, poetry, dancing, and
the fine arts generally. They dwelt
upon the three sacred mountains,
Helikron, Parnassus and Pindus, in
Greece, and there were nine of them.
Clio was the muse of history. She
is generally represented carrying
roll of manuscript. Melpomene was
the muse of tragedy, and is made to
wear a musket and sometimes carry
a sword or club. Thalia was the muse
of comedy and burlesque. She wore
a mask and carried a shepherds
crook. Then came Calliope, the muse
of heroic poems, and sometimes call
ed the chief of the MUSES.. She carried
a writing table and stylus. Urania
presided over the study of astronomy.
In the representations she sits beside
a globe, holds a compass with one
hand, while with the other she points
upwards to the stars. Enterpe pre-
sided over music. She was figured as
playing the flute. The muse of song
and oratory was Polyhymnia, or Poly
mnia, generally pictured in an atti-
tude of contemplation and wearing a
laurel wreath. Love and marriage
songs had Erato for their inspiration.
Erato wore wreath and played on
large Tyre with many strings. Terpsi-
chore was the last of the muses.. She
presided over dancing, and is repre-
sented as wreath renowned and carry
ing Tyre. Mnemosyne, meaning
ssMemory," was the "mather of the
muses.
The muses. occupied a prominent
place in the later mythology of Greece
and Rome, and are the subject of very
frequent allusion in literature.

Be Careful What You Say.

In speaking of another's faults,
Pray, don't forget your own:
Remember those in homes of glass
Should seldom throw a stone.
II we have nothing else to do
But talk of those who sin,
Ills better we commence az home,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge man
Until he's fairly tried;
Should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide.
Some may have faults, and who has not?
The old as well as young;
Perhaps we may, for aught we know,
Have fifty to their one.
I'll tell you of a better plan,
And find it works full we'll
To try my own defects to cure
refore of others tell.
And though 1 sometimes hope to be
No worse than some / know,
Ny own shortcomings bid me let
The faults of others go.
Then let us all, when we commence
To SANDER friend or foe,
Think of the harm one word may do
To those we little know.
Remember, curses sometimes, like
Our chickens, "roost at home"
Don't speak of others faults until
We have none of our own.

There was tenderness in her voice,
as though she were pleading with her
own boy, and in her own heart was
the anguish of that other mother. The
pent up love of her lonely heart was
spending itself in the service of this
unknown son and mother. It found
it's way into the bewildered brain of
the boy, bringing to him all the ten
der home memories that he had striven
against. He almost thought the hand

voice might we'll have been hers.

his pocket. When she brought the

said:
'I will take it to get-to her. She
will come and thank you-some day"
He raised her large, rough hand to
his lips; and then he left the shop.
But he did not see the faces in the
crowded streets nor hear the noise of
the great city, as he pushed on. He
saw only the vision Of his country
home; he heard only the mothers
voice whose tone had become almost
lost to him in the discord of his life.
