LISTENT

Among the things that this day brings
Will come to you call,
The which, unless you're listening,
You may not hear at all;
Lest it be very soft and low,
Whate'er you do, where'er you go,
Be listening.
1t tmay be that little child
Whom you shall meet today
Is dropping tears of baby grief
That you can wipe away.
Q, it the call should come to you
80 sweet service thus to do,
Be listening.
1t may be but to clasp hand,
Where such clasp 10 needed;
1t may be you can warm soul,
Where counsel goes unheeded
0, lest today this call should come,
Awake, asleep, abroad, AZ home,
Be listening,
It may be--hardest task Of all
To stand from out Gods way
While others rightly do the work
Wherein you failed today;
But il the call should cen be this,
Think only that the voice is His,
Be listening.
Then, whatsoe'er the call may be,
To service small or great,
To cross the seas and speak Gods love,
To smile, TO rule State
When God shall come and say to you,
"Here is the thing that you must do,''
Be listening.

MIaht Be Erlcsson,s Ship.

A traveller in Norway has been look ing at the two ancient ships in one of which Lief Ericsson may have reached the western world five cen turies before Columbus.
 The ancient pagan custom that buried the craft of the sea hero pre- served the galleys away in the soil of Norway, thanks to a covering of pot ter's clay, and a Twentieth-ceDtury farmer discovered the second one. The savants looked 1t over, and dated it from the Ninth century, contemporary with the adventurous Ericsson, pOssf- bly his own ship.
 About seventy feet long, the vessel is shaped not unlike a double pointed rowboat, flat and low, with fOrked up- rights for 15 pairs of oars, and the conventional dragon carved on bow and stern.
 Under the floor are the compart- ments where the voyagers doubtless stored their provisions.
