THE OLD MAID.

In almost every circle of our kim
dred there has been some queen Of
self-sacrifce to whom jeweled hand
was offered in marriage, but who
stayed on the old place because
of the sense of flial obi
cation until the health was gone
and the attractiveness Of per-
sonal presence had vanished. Brutal
society may call such a one by a
nickname. God calls her daughter,
and heaven calls her saint.
We like to sing the praises Of the
sisterhood who remain unmarried that
they might administer to aged par
ents. The world calls these self-sacri-
fcing ones peculiar or angular, but if
you had had as many annoyances as
they have had Xantippe would have
been an angel compared with you. It
is easier to take care Of FIVE rollick-
ing, romping children than one child
ish old man. Among the best women
are those who allowed the bloom Of
life to pass away while they were
caring for their parents. While other
maidens were sound asleep they were
soaking the old man S feet or tucking
up the covers around the invalid
mother. While other maidens we're
in the cotillion they were dancing at
tendance upon rheumatism, and
spreading plasters for the lame back
of the septuagenarian, and heating
catnip tea for insomnia.
Let the ungrateful world sheer at
the maiden aunt, but God has
throne FURNISHED for her arrival, and
on one side Of that throne in heaven
there is a vase containing two jewels,
the one brighter than the Kohinoor
Of London Tower, and the other
larger than any diamond ever found
in the districts of Golconda-the one
jewel by the lapidary of the palace
cut with the words, "Inasmuch as We
did it to father" the other jewel by
the lapidary of the palace cut with
the words, "Inasmuch as we did it to
mother. "-Dodson Times.

THE MAN-GOD.

From form to form the spirit bids us
climb,
Through round on round of strife, of
sorrow and Of sleep,
AS up the valley of forgotten time
Insensibly we creep.
Slowly, how slowly! From the primal
shape,
The sensient tube, the fish that darts
on CLASSY fin,
The lizard, the keen fox, the hound,
the ape,
Slowly our way we win.
From ape to savage man another
stride,
And then the shepherd, and at last
the man Of toll,
The hand that strips the mountains
of their pride,
The master of the soil;
The artisan of cities and of dreams,
The architect Of tombs that last from
age to age;
The harnesser Of winds, of clouds, Of
streams,
The ruler and the sage
Yet, deep within our souls there lies a
dream
Which brings its own fulflment, and
that Power vast
Which shaped us to the universal
scheme
Shall guide us to the last.
We are not that alone which now we
But that we are to be; into the sky
of Time
Above the verge Of Night our beings
star
Has scarce begun to climb.
