B. and D. A. Lowe, died at her home in
North Searsport Sunday morning, April 9th,

nature and beloved by all who knew her.
She was greatly interested in the work of
the Sunday School, A few months before
her illness it was her privilege to attend
services held by the Brotherhood of Andrew
and Philip of Belfast and through them she
learned something of the joys and beauty
of the Christian life. She was inferred

HOW THREE FROGS TUMBLED INTO
THE WATER.
Mamma and papa frog woke up very early
one morning with quite sudden start, for l
believe they had been having bad dreams
the night before The first thing that man.
ma frog did was to go to the bed of her two
little ones and take them to the pond just
yonder to bathe in the fresh sparkling water,
which the sun was shining on very bright
ly. AS they neared the bridge the little
ones eyes were nearly put out b. the bright
light of the rising sun upon the water. Both
of the children began to be naughty and
would not have their faces washed. They
ran away from their mother and hid under
piece OF board which lay on the bridge.
At last the mother persuaded her little ones
to come out, and as they stood looking into
the fresh water and gaping, papa frog, who
had heard how naughty they had been, pre-
pared to whip them. He came up to the
children and gave them each kick, which
sent them flying into the water. Mother
frog, who was very much astonished at the
way her husband treated the little ones.
gave him kick which sent him flying after
the babies. Papa frog, who had caught a
bad cold in his eye (Which was sore for a
week after) saw that his whipping was a
failure and said that he would never whip
his froglets again.-'05.

SONG OF THE GRADUATING GOWN.
With fingers inky and black
With eyelids heavy and red,
maiden sat in unmaidenly wrath;
All JOY from her face had fled
Write write! write!
In headache and desperation,
And still with feelings blacker than pitch.
She sang of her graduation
Work work work.
When the rooster begins his growing;
And work-work-work
Till gaS-burnerS are brightly glowing!
It's oh! to be slave,
To be reduced unto starvation
To never have another gown,
If this be graduation
Fight-fght-fight.
Nothing but quarrels and squabbles;
Fight-fght-fight,
AS boys do over their marbles.
Rings and pictures and gowns,
Gowns and pictures and rings
I'LL our faces are covered with frowns
At these and kindred things.
