JOAN'S PUMPKIN.
Last sping I found a pumpkin seed,
And thought that I would go
And plant it in a secret place
That no one else would know,
And 'vatch all summer long to see
It grow, and grow, and grow,
And maybe have D. pumpkin for
A jack.'o.lantern show.
I stuck a atick beside the seed,
And thought that I should shoat
One morning when I stooped and saw
The greenest little sprout.
I used to carry water there
"When no one was about,
And every day I'd count to sec
How many leaves were out.
And by and by there came a flower,
The color of the sun.
Wbioh wither+d up and then I know
The pumpkin was begun
But 0, I knew I'd have to wait
So long to have my fnu,
Before that small green ball could be
A great big yellow one,
At Iast one day when it had grown
To be the proper size,
Said Aunt Matilda, "John see here,
I'll give you a surprise!"
She took me to a pantry shelf,
And there before my eyes,
Was set a dreadful row of half
A dozen pumpkin pies.
Said Aunt Matilda, "John I found
A pumpkin high and dry,
Upon a pile of rubbish, down
Behind that worn out sty 1"
0 dear 1 I didn't cry, because
I'm quite too big to cry,
But, honestly, 1 couldn't oat
A mouthful of the pie.
ALL THAT Nt RA HAD.
From the time when Nora was a
baby until she was over twelve
years old, her home was in an
orphan asylum. Like tall thet
0 heY
children she xeceived every Mien -
tion eesential to her eomlort. She
had warm clothing, a suitable bed,
and good, wholesome food. So, too,
soon as she was old enough, she
was taught to read, write, sew, and
to engage in other useful oocupa.
tions.
'Yet, although she suffered no
want of any sort, Nora was not
quite happy. Away down deep in
her heart was a lonely feeling, which
might have been called home -sick•
neee--a sort of longing for the
father and mother site would never
see and for the home that ebe
could never have.
At length, one day a cheerful,
pleasant -faced lady visited rho in•
stitution in search of a young girl
to train as an assistant in house-
work. Nora was almost beside her-
self with joy when the lady selected
her from among all the girls of her
class. Not that she did not love
the teitchors of the institution who
had shown ber unvarying kindness,
or that she had no affection for the
other children of the neylttm, but
now, instead of being ono of a
crotid, elle was to .he the only girl
in a well•ordered home, She would
have a change something which ail
children ale said to enjoy, and be.
sides baz, she wits to live in the
nouutr nu 8 term. Nora weaasure
that nothing could offer 1182. greater
blise than that.
She went at once with the visito
airs, Alien, and We afterwards w
a cowhand happiness. The oboe
fnl, pleasant fare had not belied i
owner, ours. Allen, geutle, motile
ly soul that she was, provided
home for which any girl in Nora
cw •'iti,.o might hard betau thankful,
But Nora, though the owner of a
buy pocket book, (lever had auy-
thing to put inside
One day, however, n cousin of
Mrs. Allen's came to make her a
slinrt visit, and on taping her de.
partum she gave Nora a bright,
shining fifty cent piece. '1'o say
that the girl was happy is to feebly
express the truth. She was in rap.
tures, in an ecstasy, for such wealth
had never been hers before.
Sho drew it out of her pocket, a
hundred timee a day. At night it
was laid under :ter pillow while she
dreamed, now of this thing, now of
that, whtah ebe would be able to
purchase with so much money.
On the next Sabbath after re
ceiving It Nora went to Sunday-
solioul es nsunl. On that day the
scboul was addressed by e lady who
hail been a rnisstonary to India.
Simply and touchingly she told the
eliildreu of the dusky little ones be-
yond the eeae who have never
heard "the old, old story of Jesus
and His Iove." Thcu she repeated
tho history of a young girl who bad
been sent by her parents to the
tcbool taught by the missionaries
who had learned from them to road
the Bible and bad come to believe
in Its blessed initial. The girl had
gond home to bei father and
mother, brothers anal 0151801, had
persuaded thele all to trust in the
Saviour whom aIle had learned to
love, and had afterwards opened a
small school of her own in which
the only text book was the Bible,
and where her only reward was
found in the affection and in the
progress of her pupils.
Nora listened with all her ears.
If a girl who bad been a heathen
could du so much, what could she
do to bring others to Christ ? Surely
ho had given her much, what could
she give to him ?
Suddenly she thought of her fifty
cent piece. Yes, that was all her
own. She could do with it as she
pleased. She would givo it to the
missionary lady to take back with
her to India, It would buy Testa.
ments, at least, for the Hindu girls.
After the address was ended Nora
milled to be excused from the chase.
She flew rather than walked to Mrs.
Allen's hoose, took the hoarded
treasure from the pocketbook in her
drawer nod was back again in her
piece in school in a wonderfully short
space of time.
Fortunately for her plan, all the
scholars who wished to do so were
invited to remain and shake hands
with the missionary.
Nora accepted the invitation. As
she .blushingly extended her hand
with her money tightly grasped be-
tween her thumb and forefinger she
timidly said, "Will you please take
this ? It is all I have. It may help
a little ?"
Did not the dear Lord see the
sacrifice, and could he fail to accept
the gift offered from love to him ?
