have his spine injured severely or some
Of the vertebrae displaced, but this could
not be determined at once.

Rock Me to Sleep Mother,
Then.

The following beautiful poem
was written by Major J. F. Sim
mons, editor of the Southern Re-
porter, who never knew a mothers
love and who is now past three
score and ten:
| ask not that time should turn hack
in its flight,
And make me boy again cen for a
night.
My childhood, my boyhood, early man
hood are all
Long passed, nor would ! those seasons
recall;
Of lifc's transient pleasures I've had
my full share,
Perhaps, too, my quota Of trouble and
In heightened experience together they
blend,
and now am nearing my long jour
ney's end,
Yet motherly hand never
rocked me to sleep,
Nor shielded from ills that
around me would sweep.
II Time should turn backward or pause
in his flight,
And make me boy again e'en for
night,
know I'd feel sorely, what did not
feel when
The morning Of childhood was passing,
for then, l.
knew not the value of what l had
That which helpless infancy always
needs most.
And no earthly blessing can be valued
A gentle, affectionate and fond mothers
love-
For mothers soft song never
lulled me to sleep,
Nor solaced when trouble
would over me sweep.
No love is so constant, unselfiish and
Yet l, alast never a mothers love
knew.
Ny mother, they told me, was gentle
and fair,
Fit for only Heaven and God took her
there;
He looked on her lovingly, saw she was
good,
And took her away in her young
womanhood;
He took her away at my life's early
dawn,
When only few infant breaths | had
drawn;
And mother of mine never
rocked to sleep,
Or lavished upon me love
sacred and deep.
I felt not, l knew not, in infantine
years,
A mothers's fond kiss or mothers
warm tears,
Aud often, when burdened with child
hoods distress,
My sore heart has yearned for a moth
ers caress,
And often too, when fever, like molten
lead burned
Through all my young frame, l de-
spariDgly turned
To gentle ones 'rouud me, who never
knew bow
longed for mothers soft hand on
my brow,
But when I felt drowsiness
over me creep.
No mother was near me to
rock me to sleep.
The trials and ills that in childhood
were mine,
And often have caused me for solace to
pine,
Brought floods of warm tears which
could not restrain
Yet no relief gave me, and all were
In vain;
Then why should l ask time to turn
back or pause
And make me boy again simply
because
I'm nearing the end of my longjourney
now,
And snow is where raven locks covered
my brow!
No fond mothers hand would
then rock me to sleep.
And sadly would | in my
loneliness weep.
Perhaps should Time pause or turn
back in his flight,
And make me q hoy again e'en for
night, !, |
Unwelcomed memories would crowd
on my brain.
And make me unhappy and hopeless
again.
I should not the smiles of dear
mother see,
For these in my childhood never BEAM
ed on me;
/ should not mothers soft lullaby
hear.

Two Ways of Telling II,

Once upon time a king in his sleep
dreamed that all of his teeth fell out
before him, one by one,
He summoned soothsaycr and ask
ed him TO interpret the dream
The soothsaycr said, 20 king. the
meaning of thy dream is that thy fam
lily md relatives shall die In thy pres
ence, one by one, till all are gone"
The king was very angry at that and
sent the soothsaycr Mt once TO prison.
Then he sent fer another soothsayer
and again asked for an Interpretation
OF the dream.
The soothsayer made answer, 20
king. the Interpretation Of thy dream
is that thy family and relatives shall
die, one by Que, nnd thou thyself shalt
outlive them NIL"
With this answer the king showed
approval and commanded that pres
ent be given TO the Interpreter, and
that he should be sent home with

Serious Changes.
The decoloration Of precious stones
when they have been exposed to the
air for long time is considered one OF
the most frequent maladies. Among
the colored stones, the emeralds, rubles
and sapphires are those which remain
intact best. Nevertheless they are not
exempt from changes, as has been
proved by many experiments recently
made In Paris Two rubies Of the same
size and shade were kept for two years,
one in n showcase and the other away
from all light. At the end Of this term
