THE NOBLEST FISH OF ALL.
Web does the angler love the fish
That is squirming in the air 1
dancing eyes
He will view the prize
An ib leaps and struggles there.
But there is another toward which his
wish
Is turning from day to day ;
Anti despite ill look
He will toast the pluck
Of the fish that got away.
He knows that it moves through the
crystal cool,
With never a wave to show
The path it takes
Whore the minnow wakes
And darts in the sunbeam's glow.
There's many a beauty who left the pool,
The pride of an idle day,
Bub those we naught
Never hold our thought
Like the fish that got away. •
So, here's to the pleasures we might have
had
If fortune had proved more true;
For they stand apart
And they cheer the heart
O'er the things we may some day do.
And the disappointment that now SCRIMS
sad,
As we look on it later, may
Brace our nerves more
For the sport in store,
Like the fish that got away.
A COMPLAINT.
In the days of our grandpa, that honor.
able sage,
When be happened to glance o'er the
newspaper's page,
Found nothing his simple old mind to
ooninse,
For the "ads" they were "ads" and the
news it was news,
And the story he read was nob merely a
blind
For a mean little "ad" to be sneaking be-
hind,
But the journals now printed so brink
and deceive one,
That really I'm getting quite loath to
believe one.
For 10010000, I piok up my Daily and
read
Of "A Horrible Outrage, A Dastardly
Deed 1"
A wealthy shop -sleeper is found in his
store,
Assaulted and senseless, and bathed in
his gore,
The dootors in vain with his injuries
cope,
Hie friends and relatives give up all
hope ;
But (hare's where my feelings sustain a
revulsion)
Tiers oared with three bottles of "Skin•
ner's hlinuleion."
If I turn whore the poets Omit offerings
bring,
I read nsath the title "A Carol of
Spring,"
How the daffedils bravely are lifting
their heads,
And the snowdrops and oroausee start
from their bods ;
How the first apple blossoms are scanting
the breams,
And the woodpeoker hammers away at
lbs trees,
The red breasted robin so cheerily twit-
ters,
And now is the time to take "Ootch-
penuy Bitters.'
So I'm nob much surprised when "A
Strike in the Mlle"
Turns out just a notice of "Fakinton's
Pine,"
Or to find that "A Prominent Olergy-
man's Prayer"
Is an "ad" for "De Schwindler's Balm
for the Hair,"
And now, my door readers, when I feel a
doubt
Ae to how any article's going to tern out,
Tlie rule that I follow I'll quote—you
may need 11—
I etart at the foot of the column to read
it.
A VERY BAD CASE.
What is it mile my doliie dear 7
I'm nob quite sure I know.
She's very aiok ; and if she dies
'Twill be a fearful blow.
She's got "ammonia" in ber lunge,
"Plumbago" in her beak,
A "tepid" liver, and a sough
That keeps her on the rack.
She's got an "ulster" in her throat,
And "bunions" on her hand ;
Her skull is pressing on her brain—
'Twill have to be '•japann'd,"
I thinly IT send for Doobor Jones,
And Dootore Price and Bell.
They'll hold a "ooneolatiou" then,
And may be she'll get well,

A SCHOOL CG MObILS.
The devotees of the drama often speak
of it as "a school of morals," and indulge
in patronizing sneers at the expense of
those who voluntarily and oonsoiontioug.
ly out themselves off from this means of
cultivation ; but they do not sastnin their
' position by arguments drawn from the
sphere of concrete realities, whet might
be the effect of an ideally clean theatre ie
one thing ; and what is the effect of the
theatres actually in operation is quite
another thing. We feel perfectly sure
that we are keeping within the limits of
the truth when we say that nine.tonthe
of all the play that are put upon the
boards are either silly or nasty, Nor is
this an individual or a prejudiced opinion.
It is confirmed by the utterances 01 genu'
bar critics in all parts of the oouutry.
Let any one who doubts whether we are
speaking soberly make a careful examin•
anon of tbo facts. The dullness and the
dirtiness of the modern stage have both
bees ne a proverb. Christian people who
care for their own morale and for the
welfare of their ohildren, will give it a
wide berth. As an institution 11 is au
ally and servant of the devil.
Tho force of our assertion cannot be
broken by calling attention to the fart
that there have been and are some actors
of the highest personal character. Our
belief is that Edwin Booth was ovary
inch a gentleman, and that Joseph Safer -
'son be a man of irreproachable life. But
will anybody dare to assert that they
fairly represent the ethical standards of
their profesdion 7 Wo aro not talking
about dreams and shadows, but about
realities. The theatre of the nineteenth
century, like that of the eighteenth, is
the enemy of pure religion and of sound
morals. Noris there the faintest indi•
nation iitat it is likely to change fug
oharaotee. It is one of those things
which the disciples of Christ plodge
thsmselvoo to valentine. If Mile is Puri-
tanism, be it eo. 'There are a thousand
other epithets to which we should more
Oetaously object.

A. Remarkable Leap.
A.boab the strangest and most remark•
able bioyele aaoident reported marred at
the Montreal A. A. grounds when two
tandems jumped a five foot feuds while
going at a bwo.minute gait.
The boat was a TOUR, and the etartere
wore Robertson and Drury, and Prov.
enoher and Eaves, The latter pair had
the pole and were loading when entering
the book stretch on the final lap. Roberta
son and Drury went after them and the
speed attained by both was terrific. At
the corner they were on even terms. The
wheels apparently became unmanageable
at the turn, owing to the awful speed, a
oollision occurred and all four riders and
both wheels went over the live.foot fence
so quickly that it was hard to realize
what had happened. Both were spurting
and were going ab a clip of about 1.54.
Provenober was inside, and when ab the
turn snw that he was too clogs to the
edge of the track, end began to work out.
Robertson was in the centre, and both
wheels Dame together. A pedal on
Provenaber's wheel naught Robertson's
front wheel. This of course looked the
wheel and prevented Robertson from
steering around, end both wheels made
for the fence. The front wheels were
lifted and ran this way, and struck the
fence at an angle. This with the momen•
tum at which they were travelling, shat
men and wheels over the Mame. All were
thrown in a bunch about twenty feet on
the other side of the fence. The riders
are satisfied that the nifair was purely
accidental. Robertson's shoulder blade
was splintered at the end, but he is not
seriously injured, and will soon be around
ail right. Drury was badly bruised, but
the others escaped with scratches.

A MEMORY JINGLE.
The Iowa State Register, or some of its
readers, recently called for a oopy of some
rhymes containing the names of the
kings and queens of England in the order
of their succession, whish have from time
to thus appeared in the press. There
seemed to be a demand for these rhymes,
and a number of answers were received,
some from persons who copied them from
memory, showing that there are some
who memorized the lines for mental re-
ference in their historical studies. The
following arrangement was taken from a
volume entitled'Bonge for Little Ones at
Home," published in 1852 :
OHO SOVEREIONS OF ENOL:1ND
First William the Norman,
Then William, his son,
Henry, Stephen and Henry,
Then Richard and john.
Next Henry the third.
Edwards, one, two and three ;
And again after Richard,
Three Henrys we see.
Two Edwards, third Richard.
If rightly I guess ;
Two Henrys, sixth Edward,
Queen Mary, Queen hese ;
Then Jamie, the Saotahman,
Then Charles whom they slew
Yet received after Cromwell,
Another Charles, two ;
Next Jamie the second
Ascended the throne ;
Then William and Mary
Together came on ;
Then Anne, George fon r,
And fourth William all passed.
Aud Victoria came—
May she long be the last.
It ie said this is the moat condensed
history of the rulers of England in axis•
tonne. Many of our readers will be glad
to see it again, even if they have seen it
before.
