 NEW YORK, May 12.-The Times says: It is very probable that the matter of the revision of the creed of the Presbyterian church may come up before the general assembly in 6 way unexpected. Many prominent ministers consider that the question of the revision has been practi- cslly shelved by the recent action of the various Presbytsries.
 In all 596 presbyteries have been heard from. Out of total of 225 presbyteries scarcely 120 seem likely to be found favor ing the first attempt of the Presbyterian church to revise her creed. which Is thirty less than the constitutional two thirds nec- essary to secure the adoption of any pro- posed change in the confession.

"PIease Wine Your Feet"

Please wipe your feet! This is the leg
end that good health and manners re
quire should be written on the entrance
of public or private buildings. Awful
is the condition of our streets. and more
awful in the eyes of good housel.eepers
is the nastiness brought into the dwell
ing, be it rich or poor, on the feet Of
those who walk them. How vile this
composite is can only be appreciated by
those who try to clean it from the car
pets and to keep the house free from its
impure consequences. Health demands
extra care in a matter that is regarded
as trivial in dry seasons, but the injunc-
ton to wipe the feet on door mat Is one
to be inculcated early in life.
Careless children make careless adults
and it is these bemuddied persons who
might practice that law of the Moham-
medan, which commands men to remove
their slippers on entering the mosque or
a house where there are lives to be re-
spected, with excellent results. In some
carpeted hotels the floors are covered
with cloth, but in private houses this
protection is not possible, and the house
maid grumbles as much as the mistress
to find her well swept rooms and stairs
now stained and soiled by unwiped feet

THE PATIENT SEASONS.

How patiently the seasons bide their tinel
No murraur from the bud that months ago
Was ready, were the earth inclined to blow;
The birds are happy in their chosen cline.
No doubt there are comnunIngs meath the
snow,
And some bright eyes that never close IN
sleep,
And some sharp ears that listen well and keep
Sweet hope alive In little hearts below.
Then let the winter wear itself away,
Borne thither on the breast of freighted rills,
a dream of spring has touched the constant
hills,
And made the valleys patient Of delay.

Prison Poetry.

Probably the mass OF prison poetry
which has been written on stools and
bedposts and scratched on prison walls
far exceeds that which has found expires
sion on paper, and many mute, IN
glorious Milton" has begun and finished
his political career with these lost to
sight productions.
There is in existence q short poem
said to have been scratched by maniac
on the wall of his cell. which runs thus
Could with ink the ocean fill,
Were all the world of parchment made.
Were every reed on earth a quill
And every man scribe by trade
To write the love OF God alone
Would drain that ocean dry.
Nor could the scroll contain the vhoie
Though stretched from sky to sky.
The authenticity of this being the work
of a maniac has often been questioned
because of the beauty of its expression
and its sound reason, but the story
stands-All the Ye2r Round
