WEN POP WAS A BOY.

Pop often talks about the tricks
That he played when a boy;
He often laughs when telling how
The neighbours he'd annoy.
He used to sneak away from home
When grandma had to cook.
And to some orchard he would go
And lots of apples hook.
He often tells about the fights
When clubs and rocks were THROWN
How some bold leaders ear was slit
And some one broke a bone,
And he will chuckle with delight
When telling how he tricked
The fellow on the other side,
Who got so badly licked.
He used to be so bad in school
That nearly every day
He got a whipping with the rod,
Or late he had to stay,
And many other pranks he played,
And often he'd annoy,
For pop was full of mischief when
He used to be a boy.
But, though pop often tells about
The tricks he used to play,
About the grapes and apples hooked
And fights most every day,
You mustn't think he's that way now,
For anyone can see
That he has changed an awful lot;
He's strict as he can be.
If me and Johnny played such tricks,
There'd be an awful fuss;
He'd scold for half an hour or more.
And then he'd walloD us.
And if we even limited that
Such pranks he used to play,
He'd tell us times had greatly changed
And we must all obey.
There must have been a lot of fun
When pop was Just kid,
Or else he wouldn't laugh about
The manw things he did.
But me and Johnny amt allowed
To have that kind of joy.
And we just say that pop forgets
That he was once a boy.

CHAPTER xxi.

Open, o Lord, my heart in Thy law,
and teach me to walk in Thy command
ments. Give me to understand Thy
will, and to commemorate with great
reverence, all Thy benefits, as we'll in
general as in particular so that l may
be able to worthily return thanks for
them. know, and confess indeed,
that 1 am not able to return Thee due
thanks of praise, not even of the least.
] am less than any of Thy benefits
bestowed on me; and when 1 consider
Thy excellence, my spirit fainteth be-
fore the greatness thereof. All things
that we have in soul and body, and
what outwardly, and inwardly, natur-
ally and supernaturally we possess, are
Thy benefits, and we celebrate Thy
bounty, mercy and goodness, from
whom we have received all good AL
though one hath received more, an
other less, yet all are Thine, and with
out Thee even the least cannot be had
He who hath received greater things,
cannot glory of his own merit, nor
eXtol himself above others, nor exult
over the lesser; because he is indeed
greater and better who attributeth less
to himself and is more humble and de-
vout in returning thanks. And he es-
teeneth himself the vilest of all men,
and judgeth himself the most un-

blessing.
All things are from Thee, and there
fore Thou art praised in all.
Thou knOwest what is expedient to
be given to each; and why this one
hath less, and the other more, is not
ours to decide. but Thine, with whom
are determined the merits of each.
For Thou, o God, hast chosen the
poor and humble, and those that are
despised by the world, for Thy familiar
friends and dOmestics.
The Apostles themselves are witt
nesses, whom Thou hast appointed over
all the whole earth.
And yet they lived in this world
without complaint, so humble and SIM

they even rejoiced to suffer reproaches
for Thy name, and what things the
world flies from, those they embraced
with great affection.
For Thy will and the love of Thy
honor ought to take precedence of all

more than any benefits whatsoever
that have been or can be given.
Nothing ought to give so great a

good pleasure of Thy eternal appoint

THE SMALL SWEET SERVICE.

&C. L. Crispin)
From the rising to the setting of the
sun,
How many little things we leave undone.
With selfish aims or aspirations high,
We're apt to pass the humber service by.
A little care little thought
A little deed in friendship wrought,
A little word if gently spoken,
May ease a heart with pain nigh broken.
A little earnest. cheerful work,
To brighten gloom where shadows lurk;
A little tender, pleading prayer,
To help a soul from dark despair.
A little heartfelt comfort given,
When all seems lost for which we've
striven,
May cure the smart and heal the wound,
Make life with newborn hope abound.
Father, make US mindful of the little
things,
The small. sweet service that slowly,
sweetly brings
Thy erring children kneeling humbly at
Thy feet,
For It's the little thoughtful things that
make our life complete.

THE MooN-BABY.

There's a beautiful golden cradle
That rocks IN the rose-red sky;
L have seen il there in the evening air,
When the bats and beetles fly;
With little white clouds for curtains,
And pillows Of fleecy wool,
And dear little bed for the Moon
Baby'S head.
So tiny and beautiful
There are tender young stars around it,
That wait for their bath of dew
In the purple tints that the suns warm
prints
Have left on the mountain blue;
There are good little gentle planets
That want to be nursed and kissed,
And laid to sleep in the ocean deep,
Under silvery folds of mist
But the Moon-Baby first must slumber,
For he Is their proud young king;
So, hand in hand, round his bed they
stand.
And lullabies low they sing,
And the beautiful golden cradle
Is rocked by the winds that stray,
With pinions soft from the halls aloft,
Where the Moon-Baby lives by day.

HE NAILED HIS SISTER DOWN.
CIIome Journal-News.l


Tommy Teal was 6 years old. Today
was his birthday but instead of hav-
ing a good time to celebrate such a
grand event he had to take care of the
baby His mother had gone out on
some errands and left him all alone
with his little sister. Tommy felt very,
very badly to think such a thing had
TO happen on his birthday, and besides,
little Nellie cried d great deal. He did
not know what to do with her; of
course he loved her dearly, but did not
enjoy taking care of her when she was
fretful.
AS he stood at the window Ned
Brown came out to play on the side
walk
Come out. Tommy" he shouted.
I can't" shouted back the little pris-
oner. I've got to tend the baby"
Shut the door tight, then she can't
get out" screamed Ned.
Tommy thought it over. He knew
more about babies than Ned Brown
did. He thought Nellie might burn
herself on the stove, or pull the cover
off the table and break the lamp, or
some other things that babies seem to
love to DO. Ali a bright idea came
into Tommy's head. He ran quickly
to the closet, got the hammer and
tacks, and then went over to his baby
sister and drove three lacks right
through her pretty little dress, fasten-
ing her down tight to the floor.
When this was done he ran out Of
doors as fast as his little fat legs could
carry him. In such a hurry was he to
get to play that he neglected to shut
the door tightly.
In about an hour Tommy's mother
returned, and much to her surprise she
found her baby daughter out on the top
step. Both her chubby arms and dim
pied neck were bare, for she had no
dress on. Her mother picked her up
and carried her into the sitting room.
There was the little frock, nailed to the
floor in torn condition, showing how
very hard baby must have struggled
TO get away, and of course it had to be
put in the rag bag.

Tommy came in soon after and was
very much astonished at what his
mother told him

keep her out of mischief, and l felt

Yale and Holy Cross Play an Exciting
Fourteen-Inning Game.
1t took Yale and Holy Cross fourteen
rapid and interesting innings to decide
the baseball game between them Satur-
day afternoon on Yale field, which clos
ed with the score: Yale 4, Holy Cross 8.
Holy Cross played a good game through
out, and Yale at times did brilliant
work. The runs made by Holy Cross
were as much due to Yale's errors as to
the earning capacity of the visitors, The
fielding by both teams was in the main
clean and quick, Fox, third baseman of
the visitors, being singularly clever in
his work. For seven innings Yale was
BANKED. Holy Cross in that time maxi
ing her three runs. In the eighth in
ming Quinby and Camp by neat work
with the stick crossed the home plate.
Cunha, who was placed in the batting
list for one inning, made two-base hit,
enabling Yale to tie the score. In the
fourteenth inning Sharpe with beau
tiful three-base hit brought in Waddel,
thus winning the game for Yale. The
