Reformed BY a Rat.

Miss Francis Power Cobbe tell as
story of French convict who was re-
formed by rat-a man who was long
the terror Of prison authorities. Time
after time he had broken out and made
savage assaults on his jailers. Stripes
and chains had been multiplied year
after year, and he was habitually con-
fined in an underground cell, whence
he was only taken to work with his
fellow convicts in the prison yard; but
his ferocity long remained untamed.
At last it was observed that he grew
rather more calm and docils, without
apparent cause for the change, till one
day, when he was working with his
comrades, large rat suddenly leaped
from the breast of his coat and ran
across the yard. Naturally the cry
was raised to kill the rat, and the men
were prepared to throw stones at it,
when the convict, heretofore so fero-
cious, with sudden outburst of feeling
implored them to desist and allow him
to recover his favorite. The prison
officials for once were guided by hap
py compassion, and suffered him to call
back his rat, which came to his voice
and nestled back in his dress. The
convict's gratitude was as strong as
his rebelllous disposition had hitherto
proved, and from that day he proved
submissive and orderly. After some
wears he became the trusted assistant
of his jailers, and finally was killed In
defending them against a mutiny OF
the other convicts. The love of that
humble creature finding place in his
rough heart had changed his whole
character. Who shall limit the mira
cles to be wrought by affection when
the love of a rat could transform man?

Wise Words.

Sorrow is healed by bathing it In
tears.
Marrying for spite is doubling the
trouble.
We love flowers most when we don't
need bread.
When Time makes exchange Time
takes the boot.
A woman never loves a man for what
he does for her.
Music is the chaste or voluptuous
dance of sounds.
Hypocrites are the counterfeit coin
age of mankind.
Imitation is the first attempt of the
child at education.
One can counterfeit almost every
thing else but courage.
Unravel an illusion and the threads
will never bear respinning.
Friendship is to love as the steady
light is to the hghtnings flash.
Even the homeliest human being
finds some comfort looking in mirror.
A man may imperil his immortal soul
by not keeping his scales balanced.
Mans capacity for meanness when
he sets his head in that direction Is
immense.
An ounce of solid home work Is
worth more than a pound of convention
enthusiasm.
Dreams are broken bits of reality
placed in the shifting kaleidoscope of
the sleeping mind.
A gossip can do more with the
tongue in one week than the victim
can do with his entire body in a year.
If star came down to earth, 1t
wonldn't be there day until some
body would say it was only tallow
candle.
To decry the healer and his art and
then to ride post haste for the ply
sician upon approaching qualms Is
typical of humanity.
When an idea once gets into the
labyrinth of the brain there is no
knowing what turn it may take or
what developments may ensue.

A SONG OF PRAISE.

When winter clothes the earth in white,
When coIdest winds are blowing,
When shortest day brings longest night
When icy streams are flowing
Then In the shelter OF the home
We know the Joy OF living.
And In the cheerful freside glow
Find cause for true Thanksgiving.
When spring returns with sweetest breath,
When birds are gaily singing.
When life prevails where once was death,
Relief and gladness bringing
Then in the leafng Of the trees.
In verdure new and tender,
We see the work of Providence,
And hearty praise we render.
When summers dreamy days are ours.
And in the wales and mountains
We view the beauty Of the flowers.
The cleaning OF the fountains
Then from the glory of the hills.
From splendors wide aboundinR,
From all things warm and bright and fair
A call Of praise Is sounding.
But chiefly when the autumn comes,
With all its weight Of treasure,
And rich reward OF care and toll
Bestows in fullest measure
A myriad orchards. fields and vines
Proclaim to all the living.
"A loving God supplies your need;
Oh, praise Him with thanksgiving!

Abraham Lincoln once remarked OF
the people who wanted emancipation,
but who did not like to be called Abb
olitionists, that they reminded HIM OF
the Irishman who had signed pledge
and did not like to break it, yet who
sadly wanted "drink." :" So, going to
an apothecary, he asked for glass OF
soda water, adding: "An' dOchter'
dear, if yees could put a little whlskey
into it unbeknownst to me, I'd be much
obliged to yees.

Now that you are reminded, you can

about all that is left to our tame little
doggies Of the days Of long ago, when
they were a race Of wild animals and
lived in the woods. Their beds were
then matted grass and leaves and IT
was to trample enough grass and prop

always trod around narrow circle be-
