The old lug cottage school; douse, john,
I think i see it yet :
;fust but a step from two cross roads,
Where you and 1 oft met.
The sante old fence encircles round,
The hell—well, we had none—
But ltory wa gness'd the time, dear John,
By looking at the sun,
What anxious boys we went to school
To learn to read .end write.
Tilled with the loftiest notions thea,
And futures just as bright.
Row proud we sat upon the bench
And plumed each word at will,
And smiling'round,whir, John 1 think
Just Look, right therethe blackboard
is, }We're in the old school stilt,
The teacher's desk in front,
And read and " trapp'd" quite blunt, l
Qn either side we stood in rows
But then those were the good old days
Ere style had stalk'd abroad.
And neatIy prudish pupils now
Would term our way fa' fraud.
And then the games we used to play
Upon the old school green,
How very little like, dear .lohn,
The games that now are seen,
When with a group on either side
We hailed the ball with " Over 1"
That bounding down the old gray roof,
In some one's hands did hover.
Well! Well! time's changed and with it
John,
We cross'd the path of youth,
And manfully bearing each his part,
Let's crown our lives in truth.
That when the silvery locks of age,
With death drops 'round in duel,
Our•happiest thoughts may find a theme
In the old log cottage school.
Taos. O'IIAGAv.
A Very Commonplace Girl.
Bethena Cass stood before the little
mirror in her own room, critically
examining her appearance. She
turned this way and that way,
arched ber eyebrows and craned her
neck ; and then, as if perfectly satis-
fied with the scrutiny, she said aloud,
'No, I am not handsome, nor even
pretty, neither can I elaim the dis-
tinction of being decidedly homely.
I am exceedingly plain, quite com-
monplace; no more, no less. Yes,
Miss Veneer was rigbt. I am very
commonplare, agirl with one talent,
and I don't know what to do with
it. Now, if I possessed Miriam's
beauty, or Eldora's genius—but I
don't, I have not one redeeming trait;
but I do not consider it altogether
kind in Miss Veneer to discuss my
blemishes in such a heartless fash-
ion.'
It was not Miss Veneer's idle gossip
that opened poor Bethena's eyes to
her own defects, for, from her re-
collection, she had been chafilig
against the providence that gave to
her sisters gifts that had been denied
to herself. Her one comfort had
always been that she would not be
held responsible for what she did not
possess, but the coversation which•
she had chanced to overhear coneet r-
ing the single talent which/she did
possess, without knoavinghow to de-
velop it, starts `It" new train of
thoughts in '': Ile mind. If she would
not be,}ie}d accountable for five or
ten;^talents, she realized now quite
fully that she could not bury even
one without being called upon to
answer for the use made of it.
`There is no use in coveting the
gifts of others,' she admitted, after a
few minutes quiet study. 'I may
just as well make the best of my
own, knowing, that to whom little is
given, of them little will be required.
As this is vacation, and there are no
lessons to prepare,I will have abund-
ance of time to turn over a new leaf
and keep it down, for I know there
is a struggle before rue. If I am
homely and commonplace, there is
no reason why I should not be
necessary to some one's comfort or
pleasure. Though I cannot shine
with the brightness of my more
favored sisters, it is plainly my duty
to send my feeble rays into dark
places where their light fails to pene-
trate.'
With this new determination she
went to work at once, arguing,
against her own inclination, that it
was always best to 'strike while the
iron was hot.' The evening was
close and warm, and the kitehen
where she began the reform was far
from being as pleasant as her own
cozy little room ; but the smile that
lighted her mother's face, when she
offered to take her place over the hot
stove, more than repaid her for the
sacrifice she had made. It was
I'aldora's week to wash the supper
dishes, but as that young lady was
particularly anxious to join in a
i - gamic of croquet in progress on the
lawn, Bethena offered to- take her
place, and was rewarded with an
affeetionate little pat that sent the
blood tingling throe h her veins t
Y
with far more foree than even the .1
heat of the kitchen had done.
When the tea -things were out of 8
the wtt��:, and the kitchen in apple-pie
order, she went with the twins,
GraceT
and Gordon, for a walk,
although she bad pomised herself
the twilight hour to finish the inter-
esting book awaiting her upstairs,
'�1.s commonplace -looking as ever,
but oh, dear ! what a happy heart I
do carry to -night,' she mused, as she
took a farewell peep into the little
mirror before she crept into bed, 'I
tun glad I chanced to overhear Miss
Veneer's spiteful words, though they
did sting at the time. I needed. to
be aroused, so as to look after the
one talent I do possess."
She awoke in the morning 'with
the monotonous drip, drip of the rain
against the window -pane. `What a
delightful morning to sleep 1' she ex-
claimed, turning over for another
nap. But the next minute she
sprang out of bed and began to
dress. 'Mother needs the rest more
than I do, and I ala going to surprise
her by having the breakfast ready
when she gets up.'
, Pausing .only to read a verse in
her bible, and kneel a moment to ask
strength and direction for the day,
she ran noiselessly down the stairs,
and half an hour later, when her
mother came Wearily into the kitchen
to light the fire, she was greeted
with the aroma of boiling coffee and
frying steak.
'What does this mean, Bethena ?'
she asked, glancing at the dainty-
laid
ainty
laid table.
'It means, mother, dear, that both
you and I are to have a vacation,'
replied Bethena; and then, noticing
the look of inquiry on her mother's•
face, she explained, 'I read an
article on vacation .' the other day,
and it recommended, in case an
outing was impossible, a change of
occupation. As we cannot afford a
a trip even into the country, I am
going to see if I cannot manage a
change in occupation—you from
work to rest, and I from rest to give expression of their love to one
work.' another, a custom .that had not pre -
'You are a dear, thoughtful child,' veiled among them heretofore as it
said her mother,kissing her tenderly, should have done.
Though Bethena's kindly minis-
tries have not *transformed her plain
face into one of marvellous beauty,
or developed, by Some mysterious
proeess, her one talent into ten, they
have made for her a name .and a
place in the home and among her
young associates, better a thousand-
fold than all the emoluments whieh
beauty and genius could confer.
She is only a commonplace girl
yet, but she fits into the common-
place of life with so much tact and
sweetnessasto c

A Timely Reminder.
Each season forces npon our considera-
tion its own peculiar perils of health.
The advent of fall finds many reduced
in strength and vigor, poorly prepared to
continue the business of life. The
stomach and bowels, the great highway
of animal economy, is especially liable to
disorder in the fall. The nervous system
has also suffered, in the struggle. Ty-
phoid fever and malaria in particular
find in the fall that combination of
earth, air and water, that mark this
season as especially dangerous. The
falling leaves, the decaying vegetables
contribute their share of contamination.

valuable safeguard at these important.
