DROP YOUR BUCKET WHERE
YOU ARE.
"Oh, ship ahoy 1" rang out the cry ;
"Oh, give no water or we die 1"
A voice came o'er the waters far,
"Just drop your bucket where you are."
And then they dipped and drank their 1111
Of water fresh from mead and hill ;
And then they knew they sailed upon
The broad mouth of the Amazon,
O'er tossing wastes we sail and cry,
"00, give us water or we die 1"
On high, relentless waves we roll
Through avid climates for the soul ;
'Heath pitiless skies we pant for breath
Smit with the thirst that drags to death,
And fail, while faint for fountaice far,
To drop our buckets where we are.
Oh, ship ahoy 1 you're sailing on
The broad mouth of the Amazon,
Whose mighty ourrent flows and singe
Of mountain streams and inland springs
Of night-Iclseed morning's dewy balm,
Of nature'e place in the earth or star—
Just drop your bucket where you are.
Seek not for freeber founts afar,
Just drop your Musket where you are ;
And while the ship right onward leaps
Uplift it front exhaustless deeps ;
Parch not your life with dry despair,
The stream of hope flows everywhere.
So, under every sky and star,
Just drop your bucket where you are.

"1 didn't quite hetet, mum," said the
waiter, banding forward with hie hand to

"1 said," and there was a shade of an-

TUI: I!A11ILY I'LEDGIs,
The family pledge hung on the wall,
And on it you could see
The name of mamma, and Mary Jane,
And Oharl]e—that is me.
VOe did not dare to ask papa
To write upon it too,
So we left a space for him to fill ;
'Twee alt we dared to do.
He paw our pledge no soon as he
Cornu in the door that night ;
And when we saw him read it,
It put ns in a fright.
He did not say a word to us
About that pledge at all,
But oft we saw him look ab it
Hanging open the wall.
And every night when be came home
He shopped and read It through.
We all kept still about its words
Although we knew them theougb.
Four weeks bad passed, and then one
night
When pa came home to tea.
He took the pledge down from its nail
And then he turned to me.
"Go get the pen and ink my boy,
And let me fall that space,
It looks so bars"—he slowly said,
A queer look on his face,
And' then mamma sat down and oried
(She snid it was for joy)
And MaryYna

And papa said he did not drink
Since the first night, when we
Had hung t

Where he our names could ase
And over shwa that space was filled

Though dark may be our little room
One corner's always bright.

Three new dolls eat on three little chairs,

And they wondered, when elle saw them,
What the little girl would say.
They hoped Chet the nursery life was gay,
And they hoped that they would Lind
The little girl often played with dolls ;
And they hoped that she was kind.
Near by sat an old doll neatly dressed
In a new frock, bleak and real ;
She smiled tat the French dolls—"As to
that,
Don't feel afraid," else said.
The new dolls turned their waxen heads,
And looked with a haughty etare,
As if they never had seen before
That a atoll was sitting there,
"Ole, we're not in the least 1afraid," said
one,
"We are quite too fine and new ;
But perhaps yourself will find that now
She will eoarcely cure for you.'
The old doll spool her head and smiled ;
She smiled, although she knew
Her plaster nose was almost gone,
And her cheeks were faded, too.
And now it was day ; in oanee the child,
And there all gay and bright
Sat three new dolls in little ohaire—
It was a lovely sight.
She praised their curls, and noticed, too,
How finely they were dressed,
But the old doll all the while was held
Clasped close against her breast.
