How does the bread that mother bakes Give strength when I am weak, Make for my body dimpled flesh, And scarlet for my cheek ? How does the milk that Daisy gives, White as drifted snow, Change to drops of crimson blood That through my body flow ? How does the air, the pure, sweet air, Blowing gently by, Laugh right merrily in my voice And sparkle inmy eye ? FLATTERING SIGNS.

Found in the desk of Charles Dickens after his death. When the lessons and teaks are all ended, And the school for the day is dismissed, .And the little ones gather around me To bid me goodnight and be kissed, Oh the little white arms that encircle My neck in a tender embrace. Oh, the smiles that are halos of heaven, Shedding sunshine and love on my face. And when they are gone I alt dreaming Of my childhood, too lonely to last ; Of love that my Heart will remember When it wakes to the pulse of the past; Ere the world and its wiolsednese made me A partner of sorrow and sin, When the glory of God was about me, And the glory of gladness within. Oh, my heart grows weak ae a woman's, And the fountains of feeling will . flow, When I think of the paths, steep and stony, Whore the feet of the dear ones must go ; Of the mountains of sin hanging o'er them ; Of the tempeate of fate blowing wild Oh, there is nothing on earth half ae holy As the innocent heart of a child. They are idols of hearts and of house bolds ; They are angels of God in disguise His sunlight atilt sleeps in their tresses, Hfg glory still beams in their eyes. Oh, those truantsfrom earth and from heaven, They have made me more manly and mild, And I know how Jesus could liken The kingdom of God to a ohild. Seek nob a life for the dear ones, All radiant, as others have done, But that life may have just as much shadow To temper the glare of the sue ; I would pray God to guard ,them from evil, But my prayer world bound back to myself ; Ah, a eerapb may pray for a sinner, Butte sinner meet pray for himself. Ville twig is 00 easily banded ; I hays .banished the role and the rod ; T have taught them the goodness of knowledge, They have taught me the geodoess of Clod, My heart is a dungeon of darkness, Where 1 shut them from breaking .a rule My frown; is eullioient oorrootien, 1y loge ie the law of the school. I shall leave the old house in the oautumn, T`o traverse fla threshold no mre ; Ah 1 how I obeli eigh for the dear ones That meet me earth' morn at the door, I shall miss the good night and the kieees, And the gush of their innocent glee, The group of the groan and theiiowore That are brggght every morning to me, I shall mise them at morn and at eve, Their song in the school and the street, I shall mise the low hum of their yoioee, And the tramp of their delicate feet. When the Weans and tasks are all ended And death 'lays the school is dismissed, Nay the little ones gabber around me To bid me good -night. and be kissed. • NOT TO BE MENDED AGAIN. You can take a piece of china that's been broken by the maid, And can pntthe thing together if you know the mender's trade. You can mend the thing so neatly that no due will ever know That it has e'er been ebattered by an nn- ooneidered blow. You can take a heart that's broken by some'lmall, flirtatious girl, And can mend the fractured pieces till they're smooth as any pearl. Ay, so that the heart's possessor feels as sturdy as an oak, And forgets that e'er it happened that his heart was ever 'broke.' Yon can fall from a bicycle and make piecee of your nose ; You can break your oolor.bone, or you ME fracture all your toes ; You can crush you arm in splinters ; you can smsah your either leg And the doctor be will fix it till We whole as any egg. You can smash an ocean record, but that ieoord still is there, You can break a trotting record with a rapid little mare, And leave the old one standing just ae whole, quite ae complete, Aa when it sent the jookeys, a.huzzaing through the street. But, alas 1 if you are angry, and have angry words to say, Beware, a broken silence, or you'll surely rue the day, For a silence that is broken by the women or the men, Is the thing that oan't be mended, can't be rendered whole again. General Newt.. A Brooklyn Bridge policeman saw a man, apparently 27 years old, climb to the center cable and jump into the river Saturday. The man disappeared be. neath the surface of the water and never came up. He left behind him a brown sap of tweed material. He asked a number of men in Park Row to go out to the bridge • and see him jump, some of whom went and witnessed the fatal plunge. Steve Brodie, whose brother Dan was to have accompanied the man, said : His name is James Duffy, and be came from county Caven, Ireland, where be bas a mother and two sisters. He was a steward on one of the White Star steamers. He came to my place, and said he was going to jump off the Brook• lyn Bridge. I gave him some advice, but be said be was desperate and bad no money. He offered me some pawn tick- ets for a night's lodging. I gave him some money. Ha came around Saturday morning at 11 o'clock, and again said he intended to jump. Duffy walked to the middle of the brides, climbed over the railing, and taking off his collar and neck. tie threw them in the roadway. The boys told him to put the things in his pooket; but he replied that he would never use them again and jumped. Duffy is the seventeenth person that has leaped from the Brooklyn Bridge. Another horrible discovery was made Sunday in a room in the steeple of Emanuel Baptist church, San Francisco, where the mutilated remains of young Minnie Williams were found Saturday. The ohuroh has bean desecrated by a second murder, the victim being another young girl, Blanche Lamont, who had been missing since the 3rd inst. She had been strangled to death, her clothes bad been torn from her person, and her body was almost nude when discovered, her shoes and stockings were missing. The itnprinta of the assassin's finger nails were plainly visible on the murder - girl's throat but there was no indica. tion of further violence. Shortly after the discovery was made Dr. Geo. Gibson, pastor of the thumb, was taken into custody by the police. No charge was made against him, but he will be held until the mystery is fully cleared. Mise Lamont was last seen alive in the com• pany of Theo. Durant, a young medical student, and assistant superintendent of the Sunday eohodl in connection with the defiled place of worship. Durant, who is said to have bean engaged to be married to Miee Lamont, is euepeoted of Having taken the life of the Williams girl, who is known to •be a warm friend of Miss Lamont. They were members of the ohnrah, which they frequently at- tended together, and were also in the same Sunday school -class, Since the disappearance of Blanche Mise Williams often said that she knew that her cont. panion had met with foul play, This statement reaohed the ears of some of the members of the church; and the girl was naked for an explanation, but she declined to reveal the nature of her in- formation, and the matter was dropped. The police are now inclined to think that Durant, knowing that Mies Williams was in possession of sufficient evidence to prove hie guilt in oonneotion with the disappearance of Mise Lament, =clad. ed to decoy her into the .church and Mimeo her forever. One of the most damagingwitneseee against the medical student is Chas. Hill, who resides across the street from Em anuel Baptist church. Shortly after' 8 o'clock Friday night he saw a man and a woman standing near the street corner, They chatted to. gather for some time, and finally started up the etreet towards the ohuroh, When the church was reached the man naught the girl by the arm and half dragged her THE- J RUSSEI.S to the gate leading to the pastor's stud After a few minutes' eonvelsatiols th couple pawed through the garden an finally entered the church through a aid doer. Till ie positive that the man open ed the door with a key and waeappareot Iy tltomughly familiar with the Ferman uspecting that something was wrong he waited outside fora few mfnuber, but hearing no outory, goneluded that the couple were membere of the thumb, and went to hie home. The desoripbion giv- en of the man who,acoompauied the ,girl tallies exactly with that of Durant. A thorough search is being made for him. C;tLn adian News. Hon.

Deadman. A tramp a000mpaniad by a little boy footsore and weary, arrived at the G.T.B. station, Woodstook, a few nights ago and applied to the operator for a night's lodging. They were on their way from Lamont, Que., to Dakota, and tramped from Hamilton einoe Sunday, the little fellow, who was only seven years of age, tramping along by hie father's side the entire distance.

There was an amusing scene at the Grand Trunk depot, London, a few even- ings ago, and those who witnessed it had a hearty laugh. The evening train on the Stratford branch was pulling out of the depot yard, when a lady with a band box and grip in her hand rushed hurried- ly out of the ladies' waiting room and cried for the train to stop. Constable Logan signalled the•brakesman who was standing on the rear platform to pull the bell rope, which he did, and the train was soon stopped. A most unconcerned wit- ness of these movements was a passenger, who was also standing on the rear plat. form. Constable Logan courteously as- sisted the lady to the oar, thinking the wanted to take it for the north, but he. was mistaken. Aa she reached the car steps she called to the uneonwrned pas. tenger, "John, kiss me before you go." John same down and put his arms tender- ly around his wife, for sash she proved to be, and kissed her several times. Then he went bank to his position on the. plat- form, and. the wife turned smilingly away, after taking her band box and grip from the genial oonstable and waving a farewell to her husband. The railway officials looked bewildered for a moment or two, when the ludicrous side of the piotare presented itself, and they laughed with the by-etanders as the train pulled out. John and his wife had evidently bad a little "tiff" and the latter repented as she saw the train start.
