ST. PATRICK's DAY.

Monday was st. Patrick's day, OBJ
served all over the world by loyal
sons Of Old Erin in honor of Ire
lands patron saint. The element of
our population here which is of
Irish descent, is small and there
was no celebration or observ-
ance here other than the wear
ing of the green in honor of the
occasion by those who are Irish and
those who revere the history and
achievements of that country and
its people. Boutonnaires and green
carnations, shamrocks, ETC., were
generously worn by our people.

Little Ressie,s Lesson.

Little Bessie was playing with her paper dolls in the nursery. All heI pIaythings were scattered around the room.
 'Oh. Bessie. come on out" sang a little voice below
 tAI right" said Bessie, and ran out to play, leaving her mother to clear uI the mess she had made.
 This happened every day until ont day her mother resolved to rid her O this bad habit. The next day it wa just as usual. When Bessie came il she found one of her toys missing. One disappeared every day. At last sh' went 10 her mother in tears and tol6 her what had happened. Her mother only said: "Why don you put your toys away after you arc through ?'
 After this Bessie put everything away before she went out. Strange to say every day she found one of her lost toys. Soon she had them all back.
 Bessie was puzzled. Again she went to her mother, who told her how she had taken the toys. T have taken this way to rid you of your bad habit think you know which habit I mean '' her mother said.
 After this Bessie always put her things away. | ANNIE HAVENSTEIN. Age F.

True Couraoe.

Bah. you have not the pluck of a cat.
 The speaker was large, strong boy, who had just dared Martin to swim race with him.
 Martin was a good swimmer, but he was not srfong, and as the weath - CT was cold he feared that a plunge into the water might bring on sick ness. So in spite Of scofring of the other boys, he refused to swim.
 Martin turned and started for home On his way he passed the park, and stopped at the Dear pit around which dren.
 There were three or four bears in the pit, and one of them was very savage for not long before it had killed man.
 While Martin was watching the an imaIs at play the people at the back began to crowd and push forward. then there was a scream and child that had slipped from it's mothers arms was seen lying in the pit. The people did not know what to do, as they watched the savage bear nov ing toward the child
 Then second cry was heard, but, this time followed by cheers, for with only stick. to defend himself. Mar tin jumped into the pit. The sav- age bear turned on the boy who quick ly made his way to the child and it looked as if two lives would be lost instead of one, but as the beast came near. Martin thrust the stick into It's eyes. and then jumped aside. The next minute Martin had the child in his arms and sprung into a tree which stood in the pit.
 A rope. a rope!". cried some one in the crowd. and in a minute Martin had the rope. This he fastened around the child when it was pull ed up and was again safe in i,s mot hers arms. I The brave boy was pulled out amid the cheers of the people. So Martin who had the courage to stand the scoffing of his comp panions, and when looked upon as a coward, had the courage to risk his life to save that of another.
 The neSt day Martin was the hero of the schoce lsnd the very boys who had laugi<d at him were proud to be his friends.

The New Dolls Carriage.
voluntow,

At Christmas Ella had pretty doll given her by her Aunt Amy Fol weeks Ella thought she had nothing more to wish for but in the spring however, when the days were warm and sunny and nature called her out of-doers, she found it rather incon- l. yenient to take her doll with her every time.
 She couldn't use her arms for any thing else because she liked to run and jump. and pick. flowers and other things that caught her eye.
 But. like a good little mother, she thought her dolly needed the fresh air quite as much as herself: so one night at the supper table she said T wish had a carriage for Bella, then l could leave her in that when I went for buttercups and violets."
 Her father was present and heard her remark. Tn few days Ella $ her mother had been thinking what such a good gentle child seldom teas ing for what she could not have. that they always took special care. to re- member her such holidays.
 The innocent hint was just what he wanted. So on the birthday morn, Ella found Bella seated in beauti- full little carriage: close beside her chair 1af the breakfast table
 You may he sure she was very hap py little girl then. and that she gave her mother and father many loving hugs and kisses for their thoughtful ness and love.
