FOihs are often glad TO meet other folks, you
know,
Brt they sometimes faiter when It comes &c
Or they say, "I'm glad q zee w oh, SO faint
and low
That you wonder Just how far their gladstone
feelings go.
Say "I'm glad TO sec you" when you mean it.
Speak 10 out.
Don't Bite off piece Of it and leave the rest in
doubt.
Let your lips know what your soul is thinking
most about,
Does It take an orator to say the sentence
right9
Does it need much rhetoric to mako you feel
its might
Has it not thousand tongues which tell its
meaning quitef
You feel it when you're going home and see
the window light;
You see it in swectheart's smile, blushing
warm and bri. hit,
In mothers morning kiss and in the last at
night,
In the baby's reaching arms, which tell the
same delight
"Glad to see youi" oh, you friends Of dead
yesterday,
Could we only hear st from your dear lips far
away;
Gould we tell it into ears which mingle now
with clay,
We might gair- the meaning which the simple
words convey.
Say 'I'm glad to see you," then, to friends
who still are here
Say itwith meaning that is music TO the ear.
More than simply say it; words are cheap, but
deeds are dear,
And men will say ii back to you and make
their meaning clear.

Bleaching For CoiumDuS' Luureis-
Captain Gambler. X N, goes step
further than the assertion that Co
lmbus did not know what he was
iscovering and denies him the merit
having discovered at all, The first
yht of America, he says in The
ortnightly, was obtained by one
can Cousin of Dieppe, in 1883, four
ears before the arrival Of Columbus
t San Salvador. Cousin actually
liled up the Amazon river, which he
llled after the native name 'Marag-
on"
On board his vessel was q man
iamed Pincon, who was tried and
finished for INSTRUMENTATION on the
turn to Dieppe. Being banished
ON France, this Pincon made his
fay to Palos, in Spain, and though
here is no direct evidence that Co
INDUS sought him out and obtain
d information as to Cousins voy-
sc, it is a remarkable fact that
ne of Columbus vessels was actu-
lily commanded by a man of this
lame, who was accompanied by two
lrothers. The principal thing to
20 said IN opposition to Captain
Gamblers theory is that France,
which assiduously lays claim to every
cientific invention and discovery that
AN be named, has never been known
o put forward a pretension to the
discovery of America. Perhaps after

Complication.

Frederick Hill in his "Autobiog.
raphy" notes some of those childish
thoughts which are so real, SO seri-
GUS and yet so incomprehensible to
older people. One of them is especial
ly amusing. He says:
A favorite of my childhood was
Mrs. Barbauld's Hymns In Prose {"
] recollect, however, that in one of
the hymns a difficulty occurred to
me. The author speaks Of a united
family where "if one is sick, they
mourn together. If one is happy,
they rejoice together"
What would they do, I thought, if
one were sick and another happy at
the same time?

Attacked by n Rbinooeros.

The author of Discovery Of Lakes
Rudolf and Stefanie" had shot a re-
bra, and his men were making ready
to cut 1t up, when two rhinoceroses ap-
peared in the distance. Apparently
the firing Of the gun had disturbed
their nap, and made them thoroughly
angry.
Though more than four hundred
PAGES off, the rhinoceroses sWerved
aside when they saw us, and then
dashed upon us with the speed of race
horses. AS usual, my black compan-
ions took to their heels, making for q
solitary tree some distance off. 1t was
hopeless for me to think of reaching it,
and there was not so much as a blade
of straw for cover anywhere. And be-
hind the dead zebra, which would have
been better than nothing three of my
men were already crouching.
There was nothing for It but to brave
the situation out; so I knelt on one
knee, the better to take aim, and with
my elephant gun III hand waited to fire
till l could hope to kill. 1t seemed u
long time before l could cover the
shoulder of either of the huge beasts
and l knew any other shot would be
useless. The result was that | did not
pull the trigger till one of the animals
was only some eight or ten PAGES off.
1t staggered and fell, but the next mo-
ment was on its feet again. 1t was not
killed, but its ardOr was cooled, for 1t
turned away, followed by its compan-
ion. Twice it seemed about to fall, and
did not think n second shot would be
necessary; but it got away with I'M
diminished speed, and though we fol-
lowed it for some distance, we lost it.

Tact and truthfulness should be
used in administering medicine to
children. The administration Of medi-
cine to infants and children requires
both skill and tact. Measures that
conduce to the physical comfort Of the
little patient are readily recognized
and appreciated, but the good effects
Of q nauseous dose are not 80 apparent,
and children will often evince q repug-
nance to taking medicine that can
only be overcome by the greatest firm
ness and tact. Parents and nurses,
therefore, should endeavor to gain the
entire confidence Of the child. Above
all, they should never deceive it by the
assurance that an unpleasant mixture
is agreeable, as the confidence thus lost
can seldom be regained, Absolute
truthfulness is essential in all dealings
with children, and many a child can
be induced to take disagreeable
drug if assured that it is for its good
by some one whom it trusts. Much
has been done Of late years toward
making medicines for children more
agreeable, but there is still room for
Improvement, and the administration
Of drugs still remains difficult task,
especially in the cases Of spoiled and
poorly trained children,

Not Yet Wbinned

A French army surgeon, Doctor Sar-
azin, writing Of his experiences during
the Franco-German war, mentions two
striking incidents of the disastrous bat
tie Of Froeschwiller. He was hard at
work among the wounded in the field
hospital. The French forces had been
routed, and were in full retreat. The
day was lost hOpelessly.
Suddenly the Doctor looked up and
saw a little French soldier, with his
knapsack on his back and his musket
in his hand, walking TRANQUILITY up the
street toward the enemy's position. AT
that moment letter-boX against the
wall caught his eye, He stopped, took
out notebook, scrubbed a few lines
folded the leaf, addressed it and drop.
ped in into the box. Then he looked
at the lock Of his musket, and alone
took up his march against the German
army
"What became of that brave boy?
Doctor Sarazin asks. "What insensate
courage pushed him thus to the front
one boy against an army, when thirty
thousand men were fleeing behind
him? TO whom did he conflde his last
thought? would gladly have saved
that letter, but the next morning the
box was gone. The Prussians had car
ried 1t away"
Hardly had this boy-hero disappear
ed, when the Doctor noticed six miners
Of the engineer corps, who came W
with pickaXes to make loopholes in the
walls of the buildings. They were a
little late. There were no longer any
men to put behind the loopholes.
SO the miners reasoned, for presently
the Doctor saw them comforting to-
gether. Then they put down their pick
axes, took up some muskets and car.
tridges, and like the boy before them
they marched against the German
armVl
