Situated in the very heart of the
little city of T., amidst the glamor
and Turmoil of busy traffic, is the
public library. Saloons are scarce in
that little city, because the majority of
the citizens are peace loving people
and dislike to see men and women
making crazy spectacles of themselves
by rolling along their clean well-kept
streets, using ribald language and
singing maudlin songs; setting fearful
examples for the young people of the
city, who are only too ready in their
innocence, to mimic the ways of the
disreputables.4
There not being enough saloons to
accommodate the lowly beer-swills
and city do-pothings, they must needs
have some other place to deposit their
weary limbs on the softest side of a
hardwood seat and float dreamily with
the current down the much-sung river
of life.
The city loafers turned to hang out
in the public reading rooms, where,
with book or paper in one hand they
endeavored to keep their sluggish
brains from falling altogether into

About eleven o'clock the clerk walks

"Well, the only bed is with the

"Nagur is it?-trot out yer nagur

The niger came out and Tim sized
him up.
"Shure an yer mouth looks loike a

"Well L guess that's the best | kin

About half hour afterWard / called
the boys and we tiptoed up stairs, but
there was no need for caution. Tim
had flung himself into bed, clothes,
boots and all, and. was snoring in a
drunken sleep. We secured some
burnt cork and proceeded to black his
face in artistic style.
The next morning, Tim came down
stairs, and walking into the bar-room,
says: 81 want small drap of the
craythur."
"Sorry SIR says the bartender, but
we do not serve drinks to niggers,
here"
"Phat's that?" says Tim, dancing up
and down; 81 tell yez want small
drap of the craythur; a nagur? Do

"Why of course you do! Look in

"Holy Mither!" says Tim, 'the land

Echoes.

Last evening climbed to the old attic loft
And stood for awhile in the shadowy haze
Breathless and hushed, for my soul seemed to
hear
Dim echOing voices from far off days.
Again, so it seemed, by the old spinning Wheel
My mother sings softly song as of yore;
And dimly outlined in the shadows see
Myself in the old wooden rocker once more,
To and fro gently. it sways to the song;
And softly the festooning cobwebs stir
The song that she sings in melody blends
With note of the spinning wheels rythmic
whir
"Hear my prayer, oh Heavenly Father,
Bless, oh bless my precious child.''
Low O'er my cradle her face now is bending,
Cool is the touch of her hand on my brow,
Banishing worry and care and sorrow
Soothing my soul with that song soft and lew
"Hush my dear, lie still in slumber
Holy angels guard thy bed.''
shaft of light through the low western hills
Now touches the chamber with fingers of
truth;
Routing the shadows and putting to flight
Echoes the sweetest-the songs of our youth.

"please, mister, there is something
the matter with my mamma"
looked down to see who had spoken
and met the earnest gaze OF little
girl about five years old.
"Well, what is it, little one?" L said,
"and where is your mamma ?"
"Over here" was the answer and she
tugged at my arm.
Gall right, trot along" I said; and
this was how came to witness a sad
death and hear sad story with a
moral.
l was comparatively stranger in
the town of P, and why the child
should have appealed to me 1 never
knew.
We started off together and tried
to get my little guide to talk, but all
she would say was, Something the
matter with mamma"
We soon reached a small house
which we entered. els that you, baby
dear ?" asked feeble voice, and 1 was
somewhat prepared for what I saw on
entering the room.
On a couch lay woman in the last
stages OF consumption. She had once
been beautiful and traces of it still
remained despite the ravages of the
disease.
