Catching a Glance.

Mr.. Smalley, in the Fortnightly
Review, gives an interesting explana-
ton of the expression on Bismarck's
face it the last portrait of him, paint
ed by Lenbach, the great artist. This
look is full of power and purpose,
aflame with anger and resolve, eight
ing in the eye and the mouth hard as
iron."
So might he have looked thunder
ing at an obstinate majority in the
Reichstag, or trying to bend hostile
nation to his purpose.
But this is not the explanation Of
his expression. Prince Bismarck loves
singing birds, and hates the crows,
their enemies. One day he was walk
ing with Herr Lenbach in the woods,
and caught sight of member of this
detested tribe.
His sudden glance of anger arrested
the attention of the artist, who, as
soon as he got home, transferred it to
canvas. Thus it was not the affairs
of nations which were responsible for
the look; not the obstinacy of his
countrymen nor the antagonism of the
French which will send the great
chancellor's features down to posterity
clothed in tragedy.
1t was simply the fact that he
caught sight of an insignificant bird
which has no reverence for the sweet
singers of the feathered world

aboard. But ct night the master
caused us to have some beer, and so
on board we had divers times now and
then some beer, but on shore none at

scribed in the quaint language of Gov
ernor Bradford:
'On ye day called Christmas-day,
ye Govr. called them out to worke las
was used), but ye most of this new
company excused themselves and said
it went against their conscience to
work on ye day. So ye Govr. told
them that if they made it matter Of
conscience, he would spare them un-
til they were better informed. So he
led away ye rest and left them, but
when they came home at noon from
their worke, he found them in ye
street at play, openly, some pitching
we barr, and some at stoole-ball, and
such like sports. So he went to them
and took away their implements, and
told them that was against his con-
science, that they should play and
others work. If they made ye keep
ing of it matter of devotion, let them
keep their houses, but there should
be NO gaming or revelling in ye
Streets"

she said to me: William, ask Mrs.
Smith for her child for the child's
sake, and if she refuses, say to her
that Mrs. Billups will give her her
child for his sake, and possibly that
may be lesson in sacrifice to her. 7"
Mr.. Billups's voice was almost a
whisper, and Mrs. Smith lifted her
face from her hands and looked at him.
There were tears in her eyes, but a
smile was breaking through them.
Mr.. Billups stood up and held out
his hands to her.
"I shall be out-mothered by no
mother" she said softly, and Mr..
Billups took his Christmas dinner with
the little Mary and her mother, and
Mr.. Billups doesn't have to go down
one flight to see Mrs. Smith, for there
isn't any Mrs. Smith any more.-De-
