MY MITHER TONGUE.
I like to nn.ra my mitber.tongue,
When far awa' free bame,
I'm fond o' ilka sang that's sung
That has a Scottish name I
The dear old Doric, is to ere
Familiar frac my birth,
Sae, tender,couthie kind and free,
The sweetest notes o' earth.
I like to arena my wither -tongue,
Gas wander where I will,
When a' restraint free me is flung,
My heart then bas its fill 1
The English tongue may rule the Ian',
The Scotch commands the heart—
I'd rather lose my guid richt hen
Than frau the Doric part.
X like my wither -tongue to smo
The gangs I Io'e sae dear,
Youth's early scenes they seem to bring
Life's riper years to cheer.
Sweet memories a' come bask to me,
0' neither, love, au' home ;
The dear auld land I neer may gee,
Yet love it a' the same I
TRUST ON.
When fairest hopes are dead—when
light
And joy and earth itself is dark,
When brightest day is turned to night,
And storms engulf life's poor frail
barque,
Oh, heart trust on—though oloude bang
low,
Though life seems dark and rude winds
blow
God's promises remain the same—
His oonstanoy doth still remain.
When cold and dead the blossoms lie
Behind the clouds the sun's bright
rays,
Those fair, sweet buds—why must they
die ?
Wily do we grope through darkeomo
ways,
Oh, heart trust on—the Wintere storm
Will keep the frozen blossoms warm ;
They'll sleep beneath the fallen snow
While bleak and etormy wields eball
blow.
And Winter's etorme will soon be o'er,
In bounty earth shall bloom again ;
The waves that beat with angry roar
But leave the sea a calm blue main.
This ehauging life of toil and strife '
Prepares for higher deathless life,
Wbero partings o'er safe home at last,
Heaven brighter far for darkness past.
Mil] VILLAGE WAIF.
Why wants, I pray you, honest John
So sadly up the village street ?
He eeameth vexed, with mind perplexed,
A mood to match his lagging feet.
A littlo child rune ab bis tide,
A three.year.old, with baby face—
Brown, curling hair, o'er shoulders bare,
And sberdy limbs of wondrous grape.
Yet nob a bairn bath honest John—
A sheerlees borne, a eeolding wife ;
A vixen bold, with heart stone-cold,
HMIs been his weary lob in life.
Now be had found an orphan waif,
With neither parents, kith or kin—
k bonny boy, with scarce a joy,
"Will she, take the stranger in ?"
He mnrmuee, be be nears the gate,
And quite reluctant lifts the latob,
HE WHISTLED.
When o,aps wuz burnt to cinders
An' not a rain in sight,
He opened all the winders
An whistled in thelight—
Jest whistled,
An' whistled,
Like that Ma make things bright.
When mortgagee wuz growio', •
Like weeds by day an' night,
He kep' right on a•hoein',
Au' whistled in the light—
Jest whistled, '
An' whistled,
Like Limb'ud make things bright.
In sowin'time or reapin',
In wrong as well as right,
When shedders oome a.oreepin',
Ha whistled for the light --
Jest whistled,
An' whistled,
Like that'ud make things bright.
Somehow he'd hear bells ringlet'
For all the night an' day,
An' stilt the birds kep' singin'
When the blue skies turned to gray,
He whistled,
Jost whistled,
'The rooky world away.
HYMN TO CANADA.
Oh, Canada I thy regal bead
Lift higber to the skies.
Pride with humility to wed
Deep in thy tender eyes ;
Stand forth to a more honored place,
Fair though thy peat bath been ;
Stand forth and vindioate thy ram,
Thou Daughter of a Queen.
As Venus from the ocean
In living beauty sprang,
And stood without emotion
While heaven with plaudite rang I
So thou, my own dear land, arose
Far on the Western sea,
A hope to glad the hearts of those
Who dream of Liberty !
Think what thy storied past hath been,
Thy guarded, ancient bole ;
The deeds thy former years have seen
Remembered evermore 1
For thee, a, babe of natione,
The beet of blood was spilt,
And firmly thy foundations
On heroes' bones were built.
Oh, Canada, unworthy
Of them thou shalt not be I
All noble ends to further
The constant aim of thee ;
Till, in the van of nations,
Thyself a star shall shine
'Midst those fair constellations
Led by the voice Divine.

Net To Be Trusted At All.
Of imolai significance as to the altar-
npter of the liquor and saloon business in
general, is the fact that in times of publio
disorder it ie almost the invariable
practice of the authorities to close up
the drink shops ae° soon as possible.
Snob action bas been taken in Chicago,
Pittsburg and other cities in repent
years in times of mob violence. So in
the repent troubles In Jobnneeburg,
South Africa, one of the first movements
of the officials was to close every saloon,
compensate the owners for their stock,
and then destroy the liquor by pouring
it on the ground. All such action as
this forces the thought upon the mind
as to the wisdom and rightfulness of
giving publio saootion at any time
through license laws to a business which
is admittedly snail a dangerous character
that it cannot be permitted to exist in
times of public excitement. It would
appear obvious that a tra6Ho which can.
not be trusted at such a time should be
trusted at all, The grog shops are the
chief fuel makers for mobs and riotous
outrages always and everywhere. They
are just as bad in times of peace as they
are in times of war. There would be
few occasions for publio disorder if they
were closed and kept closed all the time.
