In tho afternoon Of the second dag she
had pecked hole in the wall, the wood

Every time she entered she carried
grain or seeds or grass. Some curious
people investigated the hole while she

little lost pigeon, just below the hole,
wedged in between the weatherboards.
For two days more the bird continued
to bring the little one food, and would
stay fiuttering near the hole, chirruping
and trying to cheer the little prisoner

to be trying to extricate its young one

Good Manners.

These few remarks upon good man. ners will be indmsed by every boy and girl. Golden Days says:
 Good manners arc among the greatest charms Q person can possess, and every body should cultivate them, especially young people They arc something money cannot purchase, fer there is only enc way of obtaining them, and that is by habitual practice.
 We know good mother who used to say:
 Always uso eood manners at home, and then when yau s.=er5 you need never la4..1l..o.., 4yl l. A.III be perfectly natural 10 you to be polite and respectful.
 This is truo, and VIC have always thought that the best and easiest way to do anything right was to get into the habit of doing 1t right.
 Hardly anything is of moro oonse- auenee than good manners and polite ness in a boy or girl. They ronder those who possess thom favorites with their relatives and friends and prepossess strangers toward them. Politeness costs nothing and at tho same time is of the greatest value.

Woman and Church Organizations.

''Tho tin.e is coming, " says The Con- gregationalist of Boston. "when organ izations fer women only in the church. es will be as exceptional as similar or. ganizations for men only. The Ameri- can board will hayo women in it's cor porate membership and on it's pruden- tial committee. They will be found i'll the executive committees of the other societies. They comprise about two thirds of the membership of the church es, and they will assume their part in the management of the work of tho churches. They will no longer think of confining their administration to the affairs of their own sex, nor will men wish them to do SO We may not all ap- prove of this change which has become 20 manifest Some of us may study ways of rotarding it The Congrega- tionalist would not ba understood as positively advocating it. It cannot af- ford space for tho controversy that would follow But if others hasten the inevitable we shall not condemn them. ,"
