spot where he had left her and as he
turned she raised the baby on high in
her strong young arms. Williams

his back to the pair and plunged dog

were waiting for him.

Williams stood like man i'm &

finished speaking and then the full
realization of all that his words i'm

force, and despite his will power his
emotions mastered him and great sobs
shook his frame.

others, and they turned hastily and

How Sam Acquired the Watch.

Sam Grove. porter some years ago
at the Wilson house, Boston, and
known by all the travelling men of the
state, and who suffered very badly,
was arrested, charged with stealing a
watch. 1t seems that Sam and a
guest of the house played poker and
Sam won all of his money; then he
put up his watch against a certain
amount of money and Sam won the
watch. The next day the man had
Sam arrested, charged with stealing
his watch.
AT the trial the Judge asked Sam ii
he had stolen the watch. Sam said
"N-no." The Judge asked him how
he came by the watch. and Sam said
"T-t-thc Odd f-f-fool h-b-bet on q

Cabor's Dawn.
cessful

The toiler's day begins to dawn.
Its golden morn comes gently on.
Yon mountain rises from the night
With helmet gilded with its light
There high appears the mornings glow,
While black extends the night below.
Where prowl the creatures of the dark,
Where still is heard the watchdOg's bark.
The light that tips yon mountains crest
Portends the age of darkness past;
That gloomy night shall lose it's sway;
The world of toll shall have it's day.
The clouds that clothe. the mountains
side
Begin to fall apart. divide;
The day shall follow break Of dawn
And labor come unto it's own.
Shall peace not usher in the day..
On cloud and crag shall lightning play;
Shall thunder's voice the vale awake
And wild the storm in fury break,
Shall rather reasons ray serene
With soft effulgence light the scene.
A world where love and labor, reign.
With peace on earth, good will to man.

Dreaming and Doing.

"Those who dream do not do Those
who do have no time to dream"
These epigrams from recent ar
ticle by Sarah Bernhard apply not
only to the art students, for whom
she wrote it, but with equal aptness
to the woman ordering home or the
business girl earning her livelihood
out OF the home.
1T seems to me- she continues,
that the successful ones are those
who never think at all about success,
but simply work. They love art, and
they toll. They make no speeches,
never seek to impress others with the
certainty of their own success; never,
in fact, bother their heads about 9TH
ers or the opinion of others at any
time. They work patiently, they work
year after year; their work improves
little by little, and they wake some
day surprised to find themselves sue,
cesSful."

CARING FOR THE PREACHER.

One Sister Eats Him, Another Sleeps

1t was at a big meeting that all this

''Now, what can you do for the

The only animate object in sight on
the vast wilderness of fairness to the

pair of lean, struggling horses which
was making its way towards the haven
ahead.
Tho weary horses, under the double
inspiration of the whip in the hands
of the unkempt man on the seat ana
the suggestion that the trees ahead Oh
fered, increased their tired walk to
poor imitation of q trot, which was
finally effectual in landing them at
the foot of the slope while old Sol
