The late DIR. John Hall told of poor
woman who had sent her boy to school
and college When he was to graduate
he wrote to his mother to come, but she
sent back word that rhe could not. be-
cause her only skirt had already been
turned once. She was So shabby she
was afraid he would he ashamed of her
He wrote back that he didn't care any
thing about how she went. He met her
at the station and took her to a nice
place to stay. The day arrived for his
graduation, and he came down the broad
aisle with that poor mother, dressed very
shabbily, and put her into one of the best
seats in the house.
To her great surprise he was the val.
edictoran of his class and carried every
thing before him. He won prize, and
when it was given to him he went down
before the whole audience and kissed his
mother and said: "IIere. mother is the
prize. 1t is yours. would not have had
it if it had not been for you."-Christian

There is a spot in the Swiss Alps where
a sled or a toboggan runs a mile in 20
seconds. The winter sportsmen of Eu-
rope take great pleasure in the Cresta
run, as it is called, at St Moritz. The
toboggan season begins there about the
middle of November The condition of
the run is not left to chance, but the slide
is prepared under the directions of a com
mittec. The Swiss toboggans are raised
on runners shod with iron or steel. The
rider lies prone upon the toboggan, head
foremost, both hands grasping the frame
work at the sides and both feet employed
in steering Iron spikes are secured to
the toes of the boots.

PRESERVATION,

For an unr3ckoncd span of time,
While the Stone trees with white buds grew
And the blie mirror Of the globe
Shifted its setting and went through
Fresh Shapes and shrinkage, while the land
Rose up and fell. as il earth slept,
Breathing in age long intervals
Like an Did mother who hath wept;
Impulse followed to its goal,
Pleasure life sought and fled from pain;
Necessity alone set bounds;
No inward forces said refrain.
The senses had their widest way,
There was no bride and no spur,
For each thing lived in hardihood
Nor stopped to think if it could err.
And yet life lasted through that law
BY which desire makes for good;
Thus ali the little wayward things
Have followed instinct and withstood
The cycle storms that come and 70,
Famine and food and earthquake shock;
From heaps of dead the living rise,
And earth sustains her troubled flock
From Eros Throne" George Ives.
