Seals Love Music,

The well-known love of seals for mu-
steal sounds often leads to their de-
struction. When the Eskimo hunter
sees none of his prey about he begins
whistling, and sooner or later is sure to
attract an appreciative seal within reach
of his harpoon. Lying at full length at
the edge of the ice he continues whist
ling low, plaintive, calling notes, and
presently few of the animals will draw
near to the spot, lifting themselves as
high as they can out of the water, and
slowly moving their heads to and fro,
as if keeping time to the music. By and
by one seal, more daring than its fell
lows, will come very close to the hunter,
who then jumps to his feet and Stays the
creature, while it's mates make off as
quickly as possible.-Pearson's Weekly.

THE HOME COMING.

The days work done, my homeward way
Beneath the elm trees shade
i wended; near the gate my fay
Watched for me while he played.
oh, he was fair to see!
A winsome boy was he,
With eyes of heavenly blue;
A soul no stain that knew.
And soon as he adown the street
My coming did espy,
Forth would he speed on eager feet,
Bounding with joyous cry.
To grasp my hands and give his kiss,
And tell what he had done
Or seen the while through that or this
His sportive hours had run.
Oh, his was guileless art
The way from heart to heart!
Thoughtful amid his glee,
A loving child was he.
Now many a year that fair young head
Has rested meath the sod,
And I the homeward way still tread
To where he lives in God
An unknown way: but when near.
At last the shadowy gate,
OF lacking welcome I've no fear;
For me my childs await,
Mature in heavenly grace and lore,
To greet me as my guide,
And ope for me my mansions door.
And aye with me abide.
And so, the while tear
Drops on the sod so dear,
Still home with cheer / fare;
My child awaits me there
