OUR BOYS AND GIRLS.
The Two Giants.

A mighty giant once there was,
A gentle giant he,
Whom all mon loved where'er he wens
And none was known TO flee.
No iivod u-ithiu castle fair,
And great as lac was strong,
And those who pIsst d when he was there
Could hear happy song.
His heart was kind his hand was free,
His soul was set to mirth.
And all men said, otis Joy to live
With him upon the earth.
His face was bright with pleasant smiles,
His laugh was good to hear,
While round about him everywhere
Twas summer all the year.
Swift flew the time. The giant grew
Full old and weak of frame.
One day unto the castle fair
Another giant came.
And as the gentle giant waned
The othor wHXed in might.
A man Of solemn micn was he,
Nor glad unto the sight.
The castle old grew silent, cold,
Nor any mirth came out,
And whore the summer long had smiled
The winter stallled about.
And all men passed another way
Whenever that they could.
They dreaded him as they had loved
The merry giant good.
No song was ever on his lips,
His eyes were hollow lights;
The castle seemed "A haunted pile
And dark and chill o. nights.
And round about it rose the wave,
And, 10, an island where
The gloomy giant dwelt alone,
The picture of despair.
And those who knew the giant twain
The truth with tears confess:
"Thcy brothers We're and one was Grief.
And one was Happiness"

CandOr.

There are people in the world who
affect to despise candor, to look upon it
as symptomatic of weakness, and
evincjng ignorance of human nature.
But surely opennes' is the most obvious
characteristic of conscious strength and
integrity-secrecy the natural resource
of imbecilty and dishonest design. He
who believes, or, what is the same
thing, acts as if he believed, that there
is not single honest-minded man in
the world, is right 50 far as one indi-
vidua is concerned-that is, himself.
He who knows from his own conscious.

Chickadee.
BY o. s. RICE.

The winter day was near its close;
The white wings of the storm arose,
And flung against my window pane
It's whirling snow and frozen rain.
But when, at last, morns tardy light
Had filed the darkness of the night,
From icy perch on leafless tree
A little bird said -chickddee.
o reader, could ! send to thee
This bird voice from the leafless tree
Could repeat the simple strain,
Thy heart would find its hope again;
The world would bless my little rhyme
And read it many and many time,
But God gave not such gift to me
He gave 1t to the chickadee.

Resignation.

There is resignation with which, it
may be feared, most of us deceive our
selves. To bear what mist be borne,
and submit to what cannot be resisted,
is no more than what the uuregenerate
heart is taught by the instinct of ami
NAL nature. But to acquiesce in the
affective dispe nsations of Providence
to make ones will conform in all things
to that of our heavenly Father-to say
to him in the sincerity of faith, when
we drink of the bitter cup, Thy will
be done! ito bless the name of the
Lord as much from the heart when he
gives, and with depth of feeling of
which perhaps none but the afflicted
heart is capable-this is the resignation
which religion teaches, this is the sacri-
fee which ii requires. -SOuthey.
