Yet moulding now the speech of

This name will be pronounced in days to

With every fond addition and sweet change
That love delights in,-crooned in cradle song,
Then shouted on the green by boys at play
Then murmured softly under moon and

BY lips that make it music-then ali me
Banded about the rude ways of the town,
In praise and blame, from kindness to

And blown, perhaps worldwide for i'll or

Spoken at last, one day, with awed, hushed

Then treasured in a few fond, faithful hearts.
Read a few years upon low, white stone,
And then forever, everrnore forgot!
So name the child, my dear. What's in a

HORSES FOR THE CIRCUS.

One of the busiest men connected
with the big Barnum & Bailey circus
IS John O'Brien. 1t is his duty to
train all the horses used for the bare
back and high school riding. All
winter long, in Bridgeport, he is
at work preparing the horses for the
horses for the summer tour Of the
show. At the Madison Square
Garden recently he was asked by a
New York Tribune reporter how he
trained his horses.
The first thing that we have to
do when we get new horses is simply
TO keep them in the stables with the
Others until they get used to their
new company" he said It's a
singular thing, too, how jealous
horses are of the newcomers. You
may laugh if you want to, but
horses really have their ways of
what l might call 'guying' green
stock.
after the horses get used to their
surroundings and their stable COM
panions we blindfold them and take
them into the ring. While they are
bIindfolded we train them to the cir
appear natural to them to run
around the small ring. This re-
quires a good deal of time and OF
patience. 1t generally takes a
month to break a horse to this. The
natural tendency of the animal is to
go straight, and the going around
is unnatural to him. Nowadays we
use a system Of checks and lines
which render the process much
easier.
After the horse has been taught
to run around we take off the blind
fold, and the performer for whom the
animal is intended begins to try
tricks with him. The horse IS
naturally very observant, and his

it perha ps means a cash surrender value

no other company represented in this

oftener than once in five years. In adj

Driven by natural causes into semi

THERE'S no pose, no glorifcation of
their position. Necessity has sent
them out into the paths they follow :;
by their own wits and through their
own efforts they hold the right of
way. In a sense every mans hand
is against them. They alone most

SHEPHERD OF ONE FOLD.

1.-THE following hymn, written by
well know in St. Johnsbury
was sung at a recent Monday lecture il
Shepherd of one fold is he,
Jesus, Lamb of Calvary!
When he drank the gardens cup,
From the earth was lifted up,
When his work of love was done,
Twas to draw all into one.
All are precious in his sight,
Parthian, Mede, and Elanite.
Crete, Arabian, Jew, and Greek,
They shall yet one language speak;
Other tongue than that of earth,-
Speech of a celestial birth.
Wonders in the Heaven above,
Wonders of redeeming love;
Wonders on the earth beneath
DyiEg love has conquered death
W no on Jesus name shall call
Shall be saved each one and all.
This same Jesus who once died,
God has sealed and g1orifed;
All ye scattered ones and lost,
Now receive the Holy Ghost;
Shepherd of one fold is He,
Jesus, Lamb of Calvary.
