 voice, And the clasp of mothers warm hand; But this silence and gloom that around me I
 feel, Is much more than my spirit can stand" "In days past some have gone from this dear
 old home nest, But long years intervened as they left, My three brothers beloved, and q nephew AS
 dear, Oh! so sadly we all were bereft;" "But my father and mother were still always
 here, On my happiness ever intent; Alas! they too are gone, I am left all alone. And so closely together they went." ''Tm overwhelmed by my loss, which scarce
 realize. oft listen their footballs to hear, l seem almost to catch the glad tones of their
 voice,
 And look for their faces so dear" ''Then I sigh, and I shiver with loneliness
 dread,
 As the thought ever comes back to me, Only one is now here, I am left all alone Where so many loved ones used 10 be-" Oh no. not all alone, my own dear precious
 friend,
 When the God of your parents is there, When His own loving arms are enfolding
 you now, And He says, least on me all your care:" When your Savior is near you, a personal friend,
 As He was with James, Peter and John; | You can lean on his breast and hold converse with him
 As life's journey is lengthening on; When the Spirit is with you to comfort and cheer,
 And to make all your earth path so bright l That these dark clouds of sorrow will Innings l reveal | That shall shine in white, silvery light. When Gods angels attend you to bear you along,
 Lest 8 stone should cucumber your way; Your blest guardian they are, though unseen, always near, l Towering round you by night and by day. l IL 4S poSSAo1e tHcE6 LlltAS DG so When your loved ones may come back to you.

There is plenty of work tor the Master to do, There are hearts that your presence can cheer, There are comforting words for the weary
  1 You can dry the lone lnourner's sad tear. And thus while you are living to comfort and | bless
 All the sorrowing ones you may meet, The sweet birdlings of hope and of peace and
 of joy,
 To your own heart returned, you will greet. Your dear mothers example a lesson will be, Who, when griet overfowed her own breast Sought relief in kind deeds unto those in like

 And found soIace for cares that oppressed. Then go cheerily on, ever may your path grow All the brighter as life wears away, Till it ends in the light ot the glory above In Gods blessed and eternal day, Where your dear one are waiting and

 At the beautiful, rich, pearly gate Ot the home where your mansion and glitter

 Even now your blest coming await. Mrs Herbert Platt. Southington, l.. l.

IN MEMO9IAM.

Greatly was shocked and grieved on reading in the last issue of THE NEW TOWN BEE the sudden death of my old friend, Rev H. L. Wheeler. These sad circumstances have brought up all the past connected with our families so viv- idly before me, from the time when a little girl I attended his school in Sandy Hook, on through all the years till now. I cannot realize the whole family is gone
 but my friend, Mrs Emily Bennett. can see them so plainly in my memory and have been thinking of all so much for the past few weeks that the follow | ing lines have been suggested and with the Editors approval will be given ] How much richer Heaven is, how mucf poorer earth, by the translation of these saints of the Lord; they are not dead

1.-The people of this vicinity insist on having Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and do not want any other" says John V. Bishop, of Portland Mills, Indiana. That is right. They know it to be su perior to any other for colds, and as a preventive and cure for croup, and why should they not insist upon having it. 50 cent bottles for sale by E. F. Hawley, Newtown and s. c.

IN MEMORIAM
OF EDWARD KIRBY, OF SANDY HOOK, WHO FELL ASLEEP FEBRUARY ,. 5.lS94.

Oh not in cruelty, not in wrath,
 The reaper came, one month ago today, Twas an angel visited the green earth. And took the flower away. Steal away-he's at rest forever,
 No sorrow can touch him now, No cloud can come over his sunshine, There's peace on his boyish brow. Steal away-iOr his bliss is endless
 Above in the glory land,
 He's at home with the white robed angels, And gold harp in his hand. Steal away we'll leave him with Jesus, Oh! no we wont call him back, To the rugged steps and the stony
 That makes up earth's beaten track. Steal away-he has passed for ever
 From anguish, from pain, from strife. He is done with this fittul fever,
 Which we mortals here call life. So hushed be the feet and sobbing,
 So hushed be your grief today, For the bright, sweet, household blossom That's passed from your sight away. Steal away in his boyish fairness
 There's a something so full of grace, A grandeur sublime. pathetic,
 That seems like spirit trace. Steal away-but place on his forehead. This beautiful wreath ot white, And make him fair, for death's angel Has claimed him his groom tonight. Steal away-there's no cause for sorrow, We will kiss the christening rod, Just press your lips on his forehead,
 And leave him alone with God. "A friend, Sandy Hook, Ct, March 5. 1894.

EARLY CIRCULATING LIBRARIES.


The Popular Institution Has Been In lex
lstence For Hundreds of Years.
From time imuemorial booksellers
shops have been the favorlto resort Of all
touched with the love of letters, and in
the days gone by when the art of adver-
tising was practically unknown, It was
only by froquenting the shops where books
were sold that possible purchasers were
able TO learn what was going on in tho
publishing world, TO know what new books
were in course of publication and to hear
and exchange the latest literary gossip
These early book lovers, one may be quite
sure, would be certain TO while away many
leisure hour by "sampling' the wares
on their hosts counters, and would read
or at least dip into, many volumes besides
those they actually purchased for more
leisurely consumption at home.
And hence might arise very naturally,
the custom of formally lending out books
TO read for monetary consideration.
Thus, at the end Of Kirkmans "Thracian
Wonder" " published in 1861, the booksell-
er makes the following announcement:
If any gentlemen please to repair TO my
house aforesaid, they may be furnished
with all manner Of English or French his
tories, rOmances or poetry which are to be
sold or read for reasonable consideration. "
1t is not quite clear from the last few
words whether the books might be taken
away to be read, or whether the reading
was to be done in the booksellers shop
But that books might be taken home is
evident from the remark of character in
Nevile's Poor Scholar" printed in 1869.
'Step to a booksellers, " he says, and
give him this angel, which I'll lend you,
for the use of the many languaged Bibles
lately publish't for week. Their price
is Rl2 When you have got them TO your
study, invite your father to your chamber,
show him your library and tell him you
are GIG out of purse for those large vol
umes."
This was an ingenious way Of getting
around the relieving officer, but it is
doubtful, after ALL whether the lending
system was put into practice to any great
extent.--All the Year Round

HAWAII is qualified for annexation to
the United States. II you doubt It, read
this from the Hawaiian Gazette; "The
Crescents resigned from the league yes
terday, and base ball in Honolulu will
probably take a sudden drop. This action
was taken because the Kamehamehas re
fuse to call last Saturdays game a
draw" A,ountry with base ball war is
essentially American.

HEAT AND RABIES.
More Dogs Go Mad In Midwinter Than In
Midsummer.


More Dogs Go Mad In Midwinter Than In
Midsummer.
"Of course you know there is no con
nection between the hot weather and ca.
nine Madness " said a Washington vetcr-
marian in speaking to a Post man the
other day. THE dog days are a myth, for
statistics have shown that rabies in dogs
or any other animal does not depend on
the heat for its Development; but, in fact,
there are moro mad dogs in Paris every
winter according to government statis-
tics, than in the summer
"The most people do not know It, but
there are two sorts of rabies, the dumb and
the raging. In the latter there is no mis-
taking the disease. The dog starts out TO
run amuck and goes swapping and biting
at everything in sight till he falls exhaust
ed. But the other variety is principally
indicated by paralysis of the lower Jaw,
which makes the animal go about with
his mouth hanging open as though ne had
a bone in his throat The disease does not
seem to make the animal vicious but he
goes around looking for sympathy, rub
bing affectionarely against his master and
begging to he caressed. He win lick the
face and hands of his owners, if allowed,
and the virus is as easily transmitted in
this way as through a bite should tho
subject Of the caress have any cut or abra-
sion Of the skin that the poison can reach.
1.-The animal will try to drink, but can
not, owing to the paralysis Of the throat
muscles, and the madness is rarely discov-
cred till in the last stages have had sew
eral cases of this sort among the owners
of fine pet dogs; but, of course, when the
animal is killed the matter is kept very
quiet. "-Washington Post.
