THE CHILDREN.

When the lesson and tasks are all
ended
And the school for the day is dis
missed,
And the little one gather around me.
To bid me good night and be
kissed;
O, the little white arms hat encircle
My neck in a tender Embrace;
0, the smiles tha. are halls Of heaven,
Shedding sunshine Of love on my
ace
And when they are gone I sit dreaming
OF my childhood, too lovely to last;
OF love that my heart will remember,
While it wakes to the pulse of the
past,
Ere the world and it's wickedness made
A partner Of sorrow and sin,
When the glory Of God was about me
And the glory OF gladness within.
O, my heart grows weak as a woman.s
And the fountains Of feeling will
flow,
When I think of the paths, steep and
stony,
Where the feet of the dear ones must
OF the mountains of sin hanging DER
them,
OF the tempests of fate blowing
wild;
o, there is nothing on earth half so
holy
AS the innocent heart of a child.
They are idols Of hearts and of house.
holds,
They are angels of God in disguise;
His sunlight still sleeps in their
t~resses,
His glory still CLEANS in their eyes.
O, those truants from home and from
heaven,
They have made me more manly and
mild,
And 1 know now how Jesus could liken
The Kingdom Of God to q child.
l ask not a life for the deal ones,
All radiant. as others have done,
But that life may have just enough
shadow
To temper the glare Of the sun.
l would pray God to guard them from
evil,
But my prayers would bound back
to myself.
All! a seraph may pray for q sinner
But a sinner must pray for himself.
The twig is so easily Bonded,
I have banished the rule and the rod:
1 have taught them the goodness Of
knowledge,
They have taught me the wisdom Of
God.
Ny heart is a dungeon of darkness,
Where I shut them from breaking a
rule:
frOWn ia sufficient correction
My love is the law Of the school.
I shall leave the old house in the
autumn,
To traverse it's threshold no more.
All! how 1 shall sigh for the dear ones
That mustered each morn al the
door!
I shall miss the good nights" and the
kisses,
And the gush Of their innocent glee,
The group on the green and the flow
That are brought every morning to
me.
l shall miss them at morn and at eve,
Their sonS in the school and the
street;
I shall miss the low hum of their
voices
And the tramp Of their delicate feet.
When the lessons and tasks are all
ended
And Death says 1.-THE school is dis
missed"
May the little ones gather round me,
To bid me good night" and be
kissed.

The Story of Duciehurst.

A great many people hold the opin-
lon that Of all the writer's who have
from n time to another pictured the
south infection none have done it with
the degree of success of Charles Egbert
Craddock who. as her admirers know,
is really Miss Mary Murfree. The pub
Iication. therefore, of The Story of
Duciehurst. a tale of Mississippi in the
days Immediately following the Civil
war. will be welcomed by these in con-
fident anticipation of the pleasures
which the reading is sure to give. To
those who do not know Miss Murfree's
work. who are not familiar with The
Amulet. or The Storm Centre, or The
Story Of Old Fort Loudon. and who
look upon avery untired author
skeptically, The Story of Duciehurst
will afford no less satisfaction. Ad-
venture n romance I'M mystery and
the unexpected all have a part in it
and they are handled with the skill Of
one who knows her profession. Miss
Murfree's plots are always ingenious
but logical: her climaxes dramatic but
not overstrained: her books, in con-
sequence, appeal to those who ap-
preciate rousing action and an I'M
broken thread of interest but who in
sist at the same time that the work.

The Story Of Duciehurst keeps the
reader in doubt to the very end. 1t is
conferred around a Confederate soldier
who loses his memory, and as he IS
possessed of valuable facts, this loss
complexities not only his own life but
involves that of others. Out of these
attending consequences, which reach
an original climax and intimately u
happy conclusion, Miss Murfree has
made a thoroughly satisfying story.

Johnny Eyers cannot keep watch

the face of it, but it is absolutely true.
NTatty adds. Evers has been presented
with several fine watches, and they
will not keep accurate time when he
carries them because of something in
his physical makeup which prevents
the timepiece from doing its work
properly.
What time is it?' Evers asks.
Haven't you got on watch of your
own there;"
