4 YOUNG AMERICAN MISS IN HOLLAND

A YOUNG AMERICAN MISS IN HOLLAND.
 After seeing the principal sights of Amsterdam our thoughts turned to canals, windmills, and dikes. Those features of Holland we had heard so much about in many ways.
 IL was cold, raw day but it is ever so in Holland and no one stops for weather. We left the hotel and after ride Of 20 minutes or whereabouts through the metropolis, we reached the wharves. Our boat was to start at ten so we went on board at once and amused ourselves watching the fishing boats as they flew back and forth oyer the harbor. Soon we were of. Out Of the harbor we steamed and then we came on the locks. We waited for barge which was being

THE FIRST BLUEBIRD.

EMMA LENTE IN THE INDEPENDENT. One morn a little Bluebird came to a New England town, And found cold wind blowing, and snow flakes falling down; He shivered and he shuddered, and said : "What shall do? The streams are filled with ice, and not a flower the country through. ''I came in such grievous haste, and home sick ss could be To reach this Northern country; but how silly twas of me To leave the sunny Southern fields, and fly so fast and straight; Much wiser were my comrades who patience had to wait. "And now that am here l find no genial place to go, Tn ere Is no food like, and. oh my feet arc chilled with snow But I'll not trill one single note; and, if am not seen, The people here will never know how foolish have been." And so the early BIuebird, ashamed ant desolate. Flew to screening evergreen, and there 1T solemn state He perched upon a twig, Iand huffed hi' feathers round his feet; And still the winds were rough and cold, fas tell the snow and sleet But, oh his mind was not at ease, he could not rest and sleep, He had message to the world which he coulC hardly keep; And something stirred within his heart anC something swelled his throat, And yet he thought: "I am ashamed to thrill
 single note." But sudden. clear. A sound was heard. ant out along the air There fioated such joyous song, that people everywhere stood listening, with bated breath, on every
 face Q smile, And hearts were glad that had been sad ( weary, weary while. The pulses of the old were moved with al unwonted thrill, The sick took heart Of hope once more, thu
 strong worked with will; The children laughed and hastened swif some wheaton crumbs to throw, And all hearts blessed the little bird tha sang amid the snow.

There Is something unspeakably prec- ious in the thought of the departure of the aged Christian. After long life of service for the Master, the mission of life fulfilled, It's work completed, then to depart from this earthly life to be with Christ, seems almost like translation. And this seems especially 80 with regard to our departed brother. At the end of a life of more than fourscore years, con secrated to God from his youth and filled up in active and devoted service to Christ the words of the Apostle seem ap propriate, s'I have fought good fight, I have kept the faith, Henceforth there Is laid up for me a crown of righteous ness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge shall give me at that day." And those words of the poet:
 'Liie's labor done. as sinks the clay,
 Light from It's load tho spirit flies.
 while heaven and earth combine to say.
 How biest the righteous when he dies"
