IA paraphrase,)

"Still DER these scenes my memory wakes
And fondly broods with miser care,
Time but the impression stronger makes,
As streams their channels deeper wear"
Burns.
Sad memory holds in my heart the pls5e
or one who in life was a living song
And in day dreams ! see the radiant face
OF the brilliant boy who died so young.
One sad memory rests like a pail
Der the sky of my spirit forever
Obscuring life's way with a shadow
That's destined to pass away never.
One sad memory; only one: tothers
Faded away with the years as they ficd,)
And l walk in the night OF its cleaning,
For, alas! my cherished hope is dead.

Need OF Covering During Sleep.

The reason it is necessary TO be well
covered while sleeping is that when the
body lies down it is the intention of ma
ture that it should rest, and the heart
especially should be relieved of its regu-
lar work temporarily. So that organ
makes ten strokes minute less than
when the body is in an upright posture.
This means 600 strokes in 60 minutes.
Therefore in the eight hours that man
usually spends in taking his nights rest
the heart is saved nearly 5, 900 strokes.
AS it pumps six ounces of blood with
each stroke, it lifts 80, 900 ounces less
of blood in this nights session than il
would during the day, when a man is
usually III an upright position. Now,
the body is dependent for its warmth on
the vigor of the circulation, and rs the
blood flows SO much more slowly through
the veins when one is lying down the
warmth lost in the reduced circulation
must be supplied by extra coverings. =

Advertising In Germany.

German ways Of advertising are con.
siderably different from the pushing
methods Of the Americans. In the cleo
trio street cars in Leipsic what few adj
yertising cards there are find place ON
the ceiling instead OF around and below
it, In the theaters permanent signs APP
near above the stage setting. German
ideas of the fitness of things are better
than the Saxon's in this respect at least.
Window displays are popular, and many
Of the windows of the large stores ex-
tend down To the floors of the easements.
Perhaps the chief mode of street or
public advertisement in Leipsic is the
use of large number of circular col
umns, about 4 feet in diameter and II
feet in height, which are stationed
throughout the city in conspicuous
places. On the cylindrical surfaces of
these iron columns advertisements in
great variety are displayed. The form
and style used are modest and are usual
ly only small paper placards, of a great
variety Of colors, announcing the name
of the article, its merits and uses Here
also are posted the opera and theater
programmes, in type not much larger
than the ordinary newspaper size. These
advertising posts correspond in a meas
ure to the fence display advertising so
much used in American cities, but are
really not much more than public bull
letin boards New York Press.

Love Unexpressed

The sweetest notes among the human heart
strings
Are dull with rust;
The sweetest chords adjusted 10y the angels
Are clogged with dust.
We pipe aud pipe again for dreary music
Upon the self same strains.
While sounds Of crime and fear and desolation
Come back again in sad refrains.
ON through the world we go, an army marching,
With listening ears,
Each longing, signing for the heavenly music
He never hears;
Each longing signing for a word OF comfort,
word OF tender praise,
word OF love, 10 cheer the endless journey
or carth's hard, busy days.
They love us, and we know It this suflces
For reasons share.
Why should they pause to give that love ex
preston
With gentle carer
Why should they pause; But still our hearts
are aching
With all the gnawing pain
OF hungry love that longs to hear the music,
And longs and longs in vain.
We love them, and we know II; if we falter,
With fingers numb
Among the unused strings of loves expression,
The notes are dumb.
We shrink within ourselves, IN yoceless sor-
row,
Leaving the words unsaid
And, side by side with those we love the dear
est,
In silence on we tread.
Thus on we tread, and thus each in silence
Its fate fuhlls
Waiting and hoping for the heavenly music
Beyond the distant hills.
The only difference OF the love in heaven
From love on earth below,
Is: Here we love and know not how TO tell II
And there we all shall know.
