See hero, any little fellow, I've something for your ear ; When mother says, "The wood -box Is empty quite, I fear," Don't wait for her to ask you To fill 11 up with wood, But fill It without asking, And she will say, "That's good I" And when she nays that to you I ]snow you will be Bled, Beonuee ib means she's proud of Her helpful little lad. When father comes home weary 0f long, hard bait of day, 'Twill give you both real pleasure le you to biro oan say, "The chores are all done, father." I know kis eyes will shine, And he will smile a thank•you Tbab means, "'Obis lad of mine Is helpful, trusty, willing— God bless the little man I" Love father, boy, and Mother, And help them all yon oan. THE BOY WHO MEANS TO BE A MAN. Only a little boy, my friends, Bat I'll do the best I can ; For by and by, in the coming years, 1 mean to be a man. • Not something that wears a one and hat, Kid gloves, and curling hair, Whose only ambition seems to be To dram with the neatest Dare. Not something that oarriee between his lips A cigar or pipe of clay, And Beeps the article in full blast A dozen times a clay. Not something that digs and delves so hard, But is poor as poverty still While a goodly part of his hard•earned oaeh Gose into the drink•eeller's till. Bub a man—an honest, whole -soiled man--. Brave•hearted, kind and true ; Who is always found in the foremost ranks Whenever there's tvorlt to do. How, boys, be wise, Join hande with me, There ie work enough for tis all ; And by and by'in the strife we shall fill The planes of those who fall. And lab ns resolve in childhood's years To bo faithful in all things, and then We may each fill an honored station in life, If we should live to he men. BILL'S TROUBLE. I've got a letter, parson, from my eon away out West, An' my of heart is heavy tie an anvil in my breast, 1'o think the boy whose fettle' I bad One so proudly planned, Should wander from the path o' right an come to such an sad 1 I told him when he left ne, only titres ehorb years ago, Ilea find himeelf a•plownn in a mighty areoked row -- n'o'd miss his father's oo0neels, an' hie mother's prayers, toe, Soft baby arms give a gentle embrace ; Pure as the angels who dwell in God's eight, Sheltered by mother's love rests he to• night.

Deep are the farrows, and' white is her hair, Aged less by time than by sorrow and oars ; Pitying nugele weep over the sight, For—oh my God 1—he's a drunkard to. night. Some mother's boy, some mother's boy, In the grasp of a monster that lives to destroy— Wretched, forsaken, a stranger to joy, Sinful and erring ; still some mother's boy. Wanderer, yet there remaiuetin a Friend, Tender, unfailing, and true to life's end ; Then why longer friendless and desolate roam, Wbou Jesus the Saviour is calling thea home. Weary one, come ; lonely one, Dome ; Jesus stands waiting to welcome yon home; And up in the mansions of glary end joy, There's pardon and pease for each wandering boy. A GLORIOUS OPPORTUNITY. A middle egad man with what appeared to be a load on his mind, visited an arctic steamer and seemed interested in what he saw, "I say," he said to the officer on dcok, "I'd like to go on the next expedition." "It's awfully cold up there," remarked the officer discouragingly." "I don't care about that." "You'd have very little to eat and might have to starve." "That wouldn't he pleasant," said the visitor', "I should any not," returned the officer, "and you might be eaten by your com- rades." "Is that so ? Thab would be dietinotly bad." "And then," continued the racer, "yon Wouldn't see your wife for three years and possibly longer. You know you can't take her with you." "Well," returned the gentleman, after a long pause,, "I think you San put me down ou your hooks. Your last argument raptured me." WELCOME TO IT.

A VETERAN'S STORY. v'Ssveral years ago, while in Fort Snelling, Minn., I caught a severe cold, attended with a terrible cough, that allowed me no rest day or night. The doctors after exhaust- ing their remedies, pronounced my case hopeless, say- ing they could oto no more for me. At this time a bottle of AYER?S Cherry Pectoralwas sent to me by a friend who urged me to take it, which I did, an f soon after I was greatly relieved, and in a short time was completely cured. I have never had much of a cough since that time, and I firmly believe Ayer's Cherry Pectoral saved my life." —W. H.
