The Real Jan Rid.

A writer, giving some personal mem
cries of Mr.. Blackmore, says be could
not bear with patience any praise of
Lorna Doone." All the world has been
told that Lorna Doone" is his greatest
work, the work in which his fame will
live, but" says the writer, Strange
to say. in as far as his gentle nature
was capable of irritation he almost
resented the mere mention of the book.
Once / inquired of him was there q
real Jan Ridd.
"'Oh, yes he said, filling his pipe
anew.
"'And was he the glorious chap he's
made out to be in Lorna Doone"'

THE TRICK.
IN THE STORM.

Ny child, your hero may not be-
In truth, a hero all the time;
Remember, it must chance that he
Shall still have rugged sleeps to climb.
Don't place him on too high plane
In fancy; then he will not fall
In your esteem and may attain
To something noble after all.
Ny boy, don't think your sweetheart beaxs
A halo on her golden hair;
A crown OF purity she wears,
And you must help to keep 1t ther&
But she will have her trying moods
And be not always kind and sweets
These are life's nerving interludes-
Sad pitfalls for unwary feet
You both are far from perfect yet,
And quarrels will, unhappy, comet
Both may be wrong; SO don't forget,
In anger's blind defiriun.
That sweet concessions each must make
And tender promises renew
Or else loving heart may break
And sorrow come to dwell with you
