Its, last night, was to those who were
fortunate enough to enjoy 1t, one of
those rare treats to satisfy and charm
without alloy. No man can lecture
on sunshine and fill his audience with
pleasurable emotions without being
full of sunshine himself. IL showed
itself in a contenance of remarkable
mobility, rejecting in its play of ex-
preston every varying emotions that
he described, in sweet and sympa-
thetic voice, in a mind garnished
with the choicest gems of literature,
and sparkling with wit and flashing
with racy anecdote: but above all, in
a heart that was full of kindness and
love for his fellow men, that enjoy ed
all the good things of life, with graft
tude to the giver and desire to shar c
them with every one else. \ lecture
like this delights the mind and
charms the taste, and makes one feel
not only happier, but better"

Lost i'm the CHICAGO Fire.

Our hearts are burdened with sor.
row as we read of the loss of thous-
and souls at a Chicago theatre, we'd
nesday. A feeling comes over us
akin to the stvn which follow heavy
blow, and that deadens our energies
and makes us listless to the ordinaries
of life for time.
Ii is time to consider the black
fact that thousands of human souls
are rushing the etes' death daily,
that in our beloved Bellefontaine,
there are hundreds of citizen neigh
oors, who, if they died today, could
in the last moment claim no hope for
a happy hereafter.
What heroic action could we have
put forth to save human life at Chi
cago, yesterday, had we been there.
What heroic action will we take to
save the immortal part of those we
love and esteem, and of tho'e we
neighbor with. Let the Christians
of Bellefontaine rise to the emer-
gency and or next Lords day let the
people fill the churches while an
earnest prayer goes up to the God of
us all. God help us or we perish"

Mirrors.

Now, mirrors are the chiefest OF vain things;
They get the smiles alike of men and maids,
OF peasants and of prisoners and Kings,
or men of all conditions and all grades.
The mirror has n merit, too; indeed
Each message that It gives TO Us is true
Who looks up IN II any time must read
This legend on Its surface: This is you. ="
And that Is why. when p'ople slowly pass
Or pause before n mirror for n while.
The face that then Is pictured In the glass
Is sure TO wear some scmblance OF n smile;
And when we try to think of what we are
The image In the mirror comes TO mind
A face without n frowning line to mar.
With eyes whose only look Is good and kind
II there were alw' Us mirrors In our way.
To show us the unconscious frowns we wear
Then scowls would go and smiles would com,
to stay,
Contentment would di placeo all brodinl
care.
For mirrors are the chiefest OF vain things
To high and low. to age and idle youth.
The mirror shows no favors, but IL filings
Into their eyes a picture built on truth.
