The New York Advocate recently
dug up the following beautiful poem
by our old time Southern singer, Mrs.
Jane T. H. Cross :
'Tis all a whirl, a dizzy whirl.
And men and women come and go;
'Twns thus when I was but a girl?
Now years have sent their flakes of snow
Upon the locks that erst were brown;
And still I see about tlie town
The eager faces; and the street
Is tiirouging still with busy feet.
I bear the sound, I hear the rush.
The trampling, trampling, o'er and o'er;
But in my heart there fs a hush,
A pain for steps that come no more;
I llsten.stlll to catch their ring,
My own glad foot prepared to spring.
To greet, as they approach the door,
The blessed steps that come no more.
But men and boys go in and out,
And merrily the world goes on;
I listen midst the ioyous rout
To catch the voices that are gone;
I go about the household cares,
See how the dog or kitten fares.
I sweep the rug or make the bed,
still thinking?tbiuking of the dead.
And tbey ? Do they, amid the host,
That throng along the golden street.
A moment pause?in memory lost?
And listen for our coming feet?
While angels all around rejoice.
Kemember they our earthly voice ?
O. can those pearly gates above
Shut out from them our yearning love ?
Or do they sometimes sit apart,
And ponder on the precious past ?
Remember they, with loving heart.
That trembling kiss?it was the last?
They cannot sure forget its thrill;
Its presence lingers round them still.
For 'twas a soul?'twas not a breath?
And Love is mightier than Death!
That Baby.
There was a baby in the railway car
the other day. It was not an unusual
child, but it had a decidedly bright
face and pretty ways. For the first
few miles she was very quiet, and her
* blue eyes looked around iu wonderment,
for evidently it was the little
one's first ride on the cars. Then as
she became used to the roar and rumble,
the baby proclivities assertad

her father's mustache. At first the father
aud mother were the only parties
interested, but soon a young lady in an
adjacent seat nudged her escort and directed
his attention to the laughing
child. He looked up, remarked that
it was a pretty baby and tried to look
unconcerned ; but it was noticed that
his eyes wandered back 10 the spot occupied
by the happy family, and he
commenced to smile. The baby pulled
the hair of an old lady in front,
who turned around savagely and glared
at the father with a look that plainly
said, "Nuisances should be left at
home." But she caught .sight of the
laughing eyes of the baby, and when
she turned back she seemed pleased
about something. Several others had
become interested in the child by this
time,?business men and young clerks,
old ladies and girls,?and when the
baby hands grasbed the large silk hat
of her father and placed it on her own
head, it made such a comical picture
tlmt an old gentleman across ttie way,
unable to restrain himself, burst out
into a loud guffaw, and theu looked
sheepishly out the window, as if
ashamed to be caught doing such an
unmanly thing. Before another five
minutes he was playing peek-a-boo
across the aisle with the babv, and every
one was euvying him.
The ubiquitous young man, ever on
the move, passed through, and was at
a loss to account for the frowns of everybody.
He had failed to notice the
baby. The brakeman- looked in from
his post ou the platform and smiled.
The paper boy found no custom till he
had spoken to the baby and jingled his
pocket of change for her edification.
The conduc.or caught the fever and
chuckled the little one under the chin,
while the old gentleman across the
aisle forgot to pass up his ticket, so interested
was he playing peek-a-boo?
The old lady in front rfelaxed, and diving
into her reticule unearthed a brilliant
red pippin and presented it bashfully
to the little oue, who, in response,
put her chubby anus around
l he donor's neck and pressed her rosy

It brought back n Hood of remembrances
to tbat withered heart, and a
handkerchief was seeu lo brush lirst
this way and then that, as if to catch a
falling tear.
The train sped on and pulled into
the station where the baby, with her
parents, was to leave the car. A look
of regret came over every face. The
old gentleman asked if he couldn't
kiss it just once; the old lady returned
the caress she had received, and the
baby moved toward the door, shaking
a by-by over the shoulder of her papa,
to which everyone responded, including
the newsboy, who emphasized bis
farewell with a wave of his hat. The
passengers rushed to the side where
the baby got off aud watched till she
turned out of sight at the other end of
tha station, shaking by-bys all the
time". Then they lapsed into silence.
They missed that baby, aud uot one of
them would be unwilling to acknowledge
it. The little one's presence had
let a rift of sunshine into every heart,
warm or cold, in that car.

Bed-Time Stories.
A missionary, recently returned from
India, was entertaining a group of listeners
the other evening; some of
them were children. The conversation
had turned upon the snakes of India,
and she had just finished an account
of how snake worshipers appeased
the supposed divinity in the
cobra before killing it, when Kenneth,
a bright boy of seven, with an imperative
iresture. exclaimed: "Stop right
there! I've got to go to bed in a few
minutes !"
The whole gist of what we have to
nay about bed-time stories is in that exclamation.
Of course, the boy's vivid
imagination would paint on the darkness
of his bed-chamber as a background
the pictures portrayed by the
missionary, and the snakes would
come wriggling and perhaps stinging
as they came; and he would see their
victims swell up and die. Worst of
all, the frightful panorama might repeat
itself in his dreams (as in fact, it
did not, for he was a healthful boy and
full of out-door vigor.)
It takes even grown people, supposed
to be posted about such things, a long
while to learn tbat for some time before
going to bed the engine of the
i?rain should begin to "slow down'

The arteries of the brain should be allowed
to carry less blood, and whatever
stimulates them to activity should
be avoided. Especially is this the case
with children. Take aJittle child iu
your arms and croon it to sleep. You
may know when it js just "dropping
ofF*' by its becomihg warm all over.
The blood is diffusing itself eveuly
throughout the body, the brain is at
re.-<t, and 110 longer filled with surging
currents of blood. A good, hearty
frolic is good for children before going
to bed, but all the stories told them
should be soothing, pleasing, gentle,
and such as may lead them in their
dreams into green paalurys and by still
waters.

The Faith of Little Hans.
The following touching story, told
by a writer in Harper's Young People,
is about a letter found by one of the
clerks, a young German girl, in the
Dead Letter Ofliee at Washington.
The young clerk had worked her
way down through a large heap, and
was beginning to think of lunch,
when she cauie upon a peculiar little
envelope addressed in German to "Jesus
in Heaven she tore it open hastily,
and found a soiled sheet, written
ail over in a child's cramped baud.
Some of the words seemed blurred
with tears, and she could scarcely
make them out. Here is the translation
:
"Dear Jksits: I have prayed so
hard to you, but I guess you could not
hear me so far ofT, so I am going to
write you a letter. We came over a
big ocean when it was summer time.
My mamma has been sick all the time.
Can't you send her something to make
her well? And, dear Jesus, please
send my papa some work to do, so he
can buy us some warm clothes and
something to eat, and please do it
r?r. n-a nro and buntrrv.
i J Uiurv , xwi ^ vw... 0|/
"Nobody knows I aru writing to you.
T thought you might send us something
for a surprise.
Haxs Brahm.
"P. S.?My hands are so cold I can't
write very well."
Katriua's eyes filled with tears as
she came to the end. She sat for some
time with the letter in her hand; as
she folded it, she resolved to do something
to make the little boy happy.
She said : "Whatever his parents may
be this child-faith must not be destroyed."
That evening, after dinner, she
told several of her frieuds about the
matter, and they were eager to help
her make up a box.
It was ready in a few days. There
were some flannels for the mother and
little Hans, comfortable clothes for the
father, and toys enough to make the
boy believe that the Christ child did
not live in Germany only. At the
very top lay a crisp ten dollar bill. As
soon as llie box left the house, Katrina
wrote a letter to Hans. She told
him that his letter had been received,
and that Jesus had sent one of his servants
on earth to help him, and that a
nice box was on its way out West.
Not Jong after there came a letter of
warm thsmks from the father. He ex
plained how they had been in the |
country but a few months and had not j
yet found work.
As the weeks went by, another ami
another letter came, telling of fairer
prospects and brighter days. One
thing they assured Katrina?"that
they could never forget her kind letter
and generous help in their time of saddest
need."

Saving His Bait.?An aged negro;
sat on one of the whaives at Salem,!
Mass., fishing. A colored boy was sit-:
ting beside him, eagerly watching the j
bob as it danced up and down. Sud-i
denly the bob went under. The boy!
in his excitement leaned so far over!
the edge of the wharf that he lost his1
balance and fell into the water. In-'
stantly the old man dropped his fishing-pole
and jumped into the water for '
the boy, and. after a good deal of
splashing and spluttering, with the
help of several men on the wharf, both
were hauled out gasping for breath.
One of the men who had helped them
expressed his admiration ior tne negro's
courage.
"That was a brave deed of yours,
my man," said he.
"What dat?" asked the disciple of
Walton, as he went to pick up his rod.
"Why, you jumping iu to save that
boy."
"Dat boy !" I doan' keer liuffln for
him ; but he got all de bait in his pocket

Home Love.
It lias boeu well said that "Sympa" j
thy is one of the divine gilts to the hu- J
man soul." Life grows deeper and'
filler in its meaning as we open our
hearts to minister to others.
We do not realize that the youth in
our midst reflect our lives?that the j
next generation will be just what we!
make it; even as the impress of our!
ancestors is upon us. Their surround-'
ings made them stern and reticent. It
is hard for us to break from these bonds
of heredity. It is a pity that we do
not strive* to influence those commit

live double lives?one, cold and selfcontained
; the other pulsing with love
and yearning towards our kindred, our
neighbor, our friend.
Many a boy and girl have been repulsed
when asking for sympathy, by
telling their griefs or joys to some older
member of the family. "Go away,
I cannot listen to you now," has proved
the ruin of soine bright, confiding
child in many a household. It does
not occur to that mother or sister that
this turning away will send the child
to some one of more willing ear, but
very likely to one whose sympathy is
with the wrong, and whose advice will
be pernicious. Could the mother realize
this, and the importance of seeking
the confidence of her child, surelv she
might reserve one hour, at least, in the
twenty-four, for her children, when
theh could come to her and tell their
griefs, or ask her advice. So would
she be able to point out their mistakes,
and help them over the hard places,
tuiii?ii oftpii ?r?? so verv hard to the
chiitl. The home-love may so enwrap
the child-life that waywardness will
become docility. While we so carefully
traiu the mental and physical powers
of our children, shall we not also
see to it that the affections u?e guarded
and directed?
' There's many a liie of sweet content,
Whose virtue is environment."
Women's Shoes.?An active woman
will destroy more upper leather in the
house in a given time than she will she
will ori the street; there are many
more obstacles to the square yard to be
encountered in the house than 011 the
street; more stair climbing, more rubbing
of feet on the chair rounds, and
last but not least, more feet sat upon in
that luxurious feminine pooo.
The wear of uppers of women's
shoe* by the friction of the skirts is
greater than many people suppose.
Men's trousers do very little damage1
compared to the heavy mid constant,
rubbing of the skirts against the buck |
of the shots.
There are no shoes made for women
that will compete with men's calf skin
shoes in durability under hard knocks.
Unfortunately women do not and will
not wear calf shoes; they are at a disadvantage
in this respect.
Philadelphia Record.
Never whip a horse when he is
frightened or nervous, or try to force
him up to the object that hay caused
the alarm; draw in on the reins, suddenly
speak out with assurance that
you are not afraid, then turn the animal
a little way from the unpleasant
sight and bid it go. A blow of a whip
upon a frightened horse gives it double
cause for violent action.

The gentleman is solid mahogany;
the fashionable man is only veneer.
The natural propensities of the heart
call for constant watchfulness. Satan
takes advantage of man's weaknessarouses
his temper and provokes to bad
words. These in turn lead us to sinful
deeds, or provoke some one else to
wrath aud vengeance.
"I do not think that when a man
feels he is doing good in his own way
he needs reproach himself that he is
not doing good in some other way to
which he is not urged by special duty
and from which he is repelled bv constitutional
temperament."
A man who possesses every other title
to our respect except that of courtesy
is in clanger of forfeiting all. A
rude manner renders its owner always
liable to afl'ront. He is never without
dignity who avoids wounding the dignity
of others.
The worker who brings out the l?est
results is not the one who h:i3 thirsted
for public applause, but the one who
has sought to climb a summit too high
for the populace even to see. He finds
it comparatively easy to satisfy others,
but this does not satisfy him. The laborer
in any sphere whose sole aim is
notoriety, works on a lower plane and
is content with inferior results.
Is God for inc? T fear not,
Though "II against me rise;
When I call on Christ my Saviour,
The host of evil lllcs:
My Friend the Lord Almighty,
And he who loves mo, God,
What auemy shall harm me,
Though coming as a Hood ;
I know It?I believe ll?
I say It fearlessly?
That God, the Highest. Mightiest,
Forever loveth me.
At nil times, In all places,
Hestandeth ot my side;
He rules the battle h Cyry
The tempest and the tide.
One reason why David desired to
dwell in the house of the Lord was
that lie might "inquire in His temple."
Many think only of the pleasure
they may find in church attendance,
hut spiritual profiting ought to
be one of our principal thoughts. If
there were more of a disposition with
professors of Christianity to "inquire"
for the truths that may enlarge the
mind and heart, there would not be so
many unoccupied seats in our sanctuaries.
