For they are wicked angels. IL they
fall,
And He, you know, just loves them,
one and all.
So when I find them on the ground,
that's why
I pick them up and try to make them

And o, how they must love Him,
mother dear!
They burn their wings and heads just
to be near.
And all night long they play around
Him SO;
But when the morning comes, to sleep
they go"
I gazed in speeches. wonder at my

Then breathed a prayer to Mary's Son

Through all her life, Lord, may her
one wish be
To bring some wandering soul again
to Thee!"

BUILDING A REPUTATION.

'She and Kitty quarreled, you say"
The voice of the speaker betrayed as
much establishment as if quarrels were
as rare as white blackbirds. Quar-
reled!' Then with decision, IF she
Quarreled with Kitty, she must be a
very unreasonable, ill-tempered girl"
That rather sweeping statement il
Illustrates the advantage of good re-
putation. There are some people SO
sweet and reasonable that if they have
trouble with anybody, their acquain-
tances do not ask about the right and
wrong of the matter. They simply
take it for granted that all the blame
was on the other side.
A young girl employed in wealthy
woman's home fell under the suspi-
cion of dishonesty. The story she told
to explain the thing she had done,
seemed very far-fetched. A fellow-ser-
want gave evidence against her which
would have convinced almost any out
slider. But in spite of appearances,
those who knew the girl, almost with
out exception, chung to belief in her
honesty. Mary has never told me a
lie," her mistress said "She has never
betrayed my confidence. / don't be-
lieve that she has begun now" And
after some months, new evidence was
brought to light, which proved that the
girls strange story was the unvarnish-
ed truth, and that the confidence of
her friends was not misplaced.
1t takes a little time and more than
little pains to build up a reputation
of that sort If a girl loses her tenn
per and flies into passion once in
six months, her friends will not be
ready to assume that she was not to
blame in a quarrel. If girl plays
with the truth occasionally, to meet
her own ends, she cannot hope for the
implicit confidence, which is almost
ready to defy the evidence of the
senses.

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
WITH FAIRIES IN THE CLOUDS.

Once upon a time there were two
little girls, the elder of whom was
eight years and the youngest one five.
Mary, who was the older, asked Agnes
to go down to the lake with her.
Agnes said she did not think her
mother would want her to go.
"Oh," said Mary, I'VE live by the
lake, and it won't be far
Well said Agnes, 81 guess can
go, but can't stay very long
When they got to the lake they saw
a big white boat, named Swan" and
it looked as though it had wings.
"Oh," said Mary, look at that big
boat. Doesn't it look grand? And
see all those little people in it that
look like angels!"
Mary" said Agnes, Il wish I could
go out with them"
AS Agnes was talking, one of the
little women stepped out Of the boat
and came toward the children.
Hello, children" said the little
woman, would you like to go out in
our boat with us?"
"Oh," said the two children to-
gether, 1--WE would like to very much. :"
"Then come with me- said the little
woman.
She put them on the boat. Then it
started, and the children seemed
happy.
20 Mary said Agnes, isn't this
perfectly grand? But I think mann
ma will be worried about u.s.
but never mind, my DEAR" said
one of the little women, "you are safe
while you are with us. We are fairies
and we can fly. We travel by water
in our big boat
"Oh,' said Mary, II wish I was a
fairy"
All at once the children seemed to
go way up.
"Oh," said Mary, now we are fly
ing"
Then they went up still higher.
Next they went through dark place,
and then it was light again.
ooh Mary said Agnes, 1--WE are
above the clouds. Isn't this perfectly
grand? But poor mamma will be
worried about u.s.
Then they saw beautiful things.
Fairies were dancing and singing.
Some were flying around their beauti-
full home.
20 Mary" said Agnes, wouldn't it
be lovely to be fairy and fly
around?"
Then everything stopped and the
fairies got into the big boat and were
on the water in fifteen minutes.
| When the children had gone, their
mother, father and brother went to
look for them But they could not
find them.
When the boat stopped the children
saw it was the same place where they
had got on the boat. Their mother
saw the big boat come in, and the
fairy who took the children on the
boat took them to their mother, and
she disappeared before the children
could bid her goodbye or thank her.
When they got home they told all
about fairyland and how the fairies
dance and sing and fly.
ooh, | wish I was fairy" said
Mary.
"And so do l." said Agnes.
| When the children went to bed they
dreamed that they were in fairyland.

PRODUCING GOOD MEN AND GOOD
WOMEN.

Bishop Spalding says, "We must
make boys and girls realize that the
best thing in the world is good man
or woman, and to be that is the only
certain way to a worthy and con-
tented life" In the days of elemen-
tary studies, the foundation of char
acter is being laid, the mind is more
susceptible to impression, the mem
DRY is more retentive and delicate.
Greatest care should be exercised to
awaken proper ambition in the young
and to place before them true ideals.
They should be encouraged to analyze
to delve and dig for themselves, to &C
quire habits of thought and action. A
teacher may impart knowledge, but it
will prove vain unless he direct and
stimulate his pupils to personal efforts
in the pursuit of scientific information.
Their own individual exertion will
broaden and discipline their minds, in
crease their understanding, and inspire
them with love of culture and refine
ment, whilst teaching them self-con-
! troll, the command of the perishable
engine in which dwells their immortal
SOUL Quality, not quantity should
be the motto in the schoolroom, intel
| ligence of work rather than amount.
The manner of study is more impor-
| tant than the matter. Even in the
lowest grades, children should be
taught how to study. At first it will
be necessary for the teacher to accom-
pany them, later on when they have
learned to think, to associate ideas, to
concentrate their thoughts, study will
be not only comparatively easy, but a
pleasure, for they will have establish
ed the basis of a good memory.
AS education includes the work OF
the home, Church and school and
every influence that comes into the
mind and heart, children should be
taught at an early age that appilca-
ton is pleasant duty, that self-im-
provement is life business, and that
home study is a necessary part of their
educational work. The encouragement
of those whom they love and reverence
will be a healthy incentive. BY de-
grees they will grow to love study for
the mental pleasure it produces, they
will open their eyes and hearts to the
beautiful lessons God has written on
all nature; they will notice the song Of
the birds, the verdure of the fields, the
foliage of the trees, the multiform and
many colored blossoms, the brooklet as
it winds it's way to the river, the blue
of the sky by day, and the myriad
stars scattered over the armament by
night. Being encompassed by al
these delights and awake to theil
charms, evil will find no entrance into
their pure souls, and the Angels of God
will be ravished at beholding His
image undefiled in the hearts of the
many thousand little ones attending
our elementary schools.

THE oLD-FAsHIoNED CRADLE.

1t stands beside me now-the dear old
fashioned cradle.
MY sainted mother hallowed, long
ago,
AS she crooned low sweet tune, DER
her rosy sleepy darlings,
While she rocked the cradle gently,
to and fro.
Ere'while / dim1y dream tonight, fond
memories steal DER me,
Dear childhood days-all radiant
with bloom!
What happy pictures do see what
sweet eyes deeply tender,
Within the cheerful light of moth
er's room!
Without the latticed window place,
sweet opening roses clambered;
There sunbeams played all day in
calm content:
And tendrilled morning glory vines,
all tremulous with brightness
Their witching beauty with the
roses blent
And shrined amid the long soft grass,
through days of summer wealth
er,
Our play house grew, meath grape
vines cooling shade;
And when at night the glow worms
came within our leafy dwelling,
We thought them rosy lights the
fairies made!
Fair childhood days! Dear home OF
yore, where once the sun shone
brightest!
Though time has hushed thy notes
of minstrelsy;
The mother love the face so dear,
that bent each night above us,
Can never, nevermore forgotten be!
What dreams she fashioned OF us then
leach waxen touch she well
comedi
Soft, sunny curls, and radiant, won
dering eyes!

The career of every great man is
a narrative of patient trials, Of studi-

opportunities. 1t is a prosaic but
Instructive story of every mental task

THE EXAMPLE OF OUR SAVIOR.

The individual is, after all, the one
to be considered in the question of
character development. The great
Savior, the highest and most perfect
model Of the teacher, gives us an ex-
ample in the power by which, as a
teacher, He purifies the life of the in
tdividual and thus made for him an
environment worthy of his increased
knowledge. The living teacher we
love to know He is the only one we
love to remember, the one who sought
not only to instruct us, but to make
us better men and women, and with
that conveyed to us the knowledge by
which intellect and life were illumin-
ated.
Give US character as result of
school work. Never forget that the
ordinary school is not to form special
lists, to make mechanics, but to turn
out men and women who, in the
strength of character which has been
developed, become good and skilled
workmen in any field of endeavor to
which they may be called to enter. We
| are apt to increase unnecessarily the
school curriculum and multiply the
things to be taught to the child. Far
better to teach the child thoroughly
well the things that are essential to all
mental and spiritual development ra-
Their than crowd the mind with things
not practical at the moment and per-
haps forgotten before the time comes
| for their use.
