THE TWO SACKS.
As tAsTNE3 rtuantr.
A man upon a distant journey bound,
in troubloue times, sought everywhere
around
Where he could leave the produce of a
field
Which had at harvest brought him
plenteous yield.
At length he thought that he of friends
had twain
With wh:,m lie could entrust the precious
plain,
Since honest mon they were, true friends
indeed,
Who would not rob him of a singe se •d,
Betwixt these two divided he his grain,
In stout sacks, as I need not to explain.
Long was the jouxney. Many a month
flew past
Before he saw his home again at hut.
On his return he chose an early d.,y
To fetch his two tacks Lome without de.
lay.
To one friend went the traveller, and
said : "Where,
Friend, is the seek I left beneath thy
care ?"
Nc answer gave his friend, but "Come
and see;
Out through the house and garden, come
vitt' me"
Re went with him, but great was his
surprise,
No sack of grain there stood before his
eyee.
His friend had brought him to a piece of
land
Where, ripe, and waiting for the reaper's
hand,
A crop of wheat he saw that shone Pike
gold,
His green, when sown, had borne a bun-
ch ed fold.
"There," said his friend, "I thought
when thou cam'st hack,
This crop would pi ase thee better than a
sack.
I sowed my grain, and good has been the
yield,
Tomorrow send thy reapers to my field,"
o'erjayed and grateful, home the travel.
ler came,
And said : "My other friend has done
the same,
No doubt. The two crops will a good
price bring,
With some seed left to sow before the
spring.
Then of his second friend he sought the
door,
And said: "I pray thee, kindly friend,
restore
The sack I'neatla thy keeping left, the
day
When first to foreign climes I took my
wHe said a "I in a cellar safe have kept
Thy sack, lest thieves should take 0
wtile I slept."
Taut 0, the disappointment I Rats and
mine
No doubt had found the grain extremely
nice
Half they had oaten; what they had not
ta'en
Was marred. Quito useless had become
the grain.
The seed which, planted, might have
brought much gold,
Was spoilt by rats and by the cellar's
mould.
Why, younger friends, T most vineerely

A. CHINESE' FUNERAL.
A little Chincee girl wen berlmd
in Evergreen Ocinotery, iii 'Brook.
Evia, the other clay, i0 a way that
Would seem very odd to an Auzeri,
can child. Iced candles, which
emitted a disagreeable odor, were
burned itt the house, and at the'
grave a fire was kindled to burn ail
tbo girl's clothes. Iuto this the
relatives kept throwing; a white
powder, which burned with a blue-
ish light. The Chinese think that
Satan has a fashion of racing to the
grave, and seizing the body ns soon
as it arrives ; so, on the way there,
the friends keep tossing bite of
paper out of the carriage window,
which Satan is supposed to pick up
and read, thus allowing the pro-
cession to reaoli the Cemetery first,
HOW BUSY WENT 1:0 TOUG-
ALOO.
You never could guess just how
she went if you should try from now
until your next birthday, so I'll tell
you first how she came to go to
Tougaino at all. •
To begin with, Mamma Bradley
bad been rummaging about in the
attic a long dine when little Pay
set out to lied her. It seemed such
a very long time si0ce sbo had seen
her mamma, and to tell the truth
walnina was not at all surprised to
pea l'ap's little yellow bead with tht-
blue ribbon on top come bobbing tip
the *tau•;.
"What are you doing up here,
mammtt2" eat). Fay. "I've beau
huutiug fur you ever to long."
"Ott, Lin lookiug for some things
to put iu the barrel that is going to
Tougaloo for the poor people that
the missionaries are working for."
"Clothes ?" said Fay.
"Yes, clothed, and I suppose they
would be glad of almost anything
that would help to make their lives
more comfortable," said her mother.
Fay sat down in an old basket
and watched her mother fold and
unfold the contents of trunks and
boxes so quietly that Mrs. Bradley
finally looked up and said:
"Why don't you go to your play,
dear ? What are you thinking
about ?"
"I wag thinking," said Fay, ";lo
you s'pose the Tougaloo folks have
any little gir;s ?"
Oh yes, plenty of therm."
"Bigsma?"
"Yes, all sizes, I suppose," said
Mrs Bradley, going• on with her
work.
"Well," said Pay, "I was think
ing, how d'you e'pose they'd like
Susy 2"
"What I the uely doll that Auntie
gave yon for keeping your elbows
off the table 7"
"Y.sen," said Fay. "Do you
s'quae she'd make a little Tougaloo
girl's life auy more comfor'able ?"
"Why, }res, dear, anything that
gives yon so much pleasure would
please them of course," Raid her
,pother, "But are you quite surd
ynu want to give Busy away ?"
"Well, when Auntie gave us our
missionary boxes in the Sunday-
anhool class, rho told us to be sure
rind remember what was printed on
them, and she read on one side
, umethieg about people giving their
first fruits, and she stud it meant
their poet things, and on top it
eail 'Inaamncli as ye have done it
mita one of the least of these, ye
kava done it unto ale.'
"Now, busy ie my beet doll—any
way I love her best, and there
couldn't be anybody much leader
than a little girl like me way down
in Tougaloo, could there, mamma 2"
"Well, you must think 1t all over,
and if you are quite sure that yon
want to do it, we will take Busy
down to the church this afternoon
with the other things," said her
mother.
Fay said no more, and in a few
minutes she tripped down stairs,
and when her mamma followed aeon
after she heard the creak of Fay's
little roolting chair and the words,
"Sleep, baby, sleep," which told her
as she peeped through a crack in
the door, that Busy was getting her
lust lullaby from the fond little
mother who at the proper time pro.
seated Susy all dreesod for her jour.
toy to Tougaloo.
When Fay and her mother ar-
rived at the ohurah, sure enough
right there in the parlor stood two
or three barrels, while dear old Mrs.
Rogers and a half a dozen other,
ladies were filling them with useful
articles.
"Here is a package of clothing,"
said Mrs. Bradley, "And I have
another bundle which Dennie will
bring in from the carriage in a few
minutes,"
"And Sney'e going to Tougaloo,"
eaid If`ay, reaohing out her treasure
to Grandma Rogers as she spoke.
"Well now, the dear," eaid
Grandma Itogere, "don't you want
her yourself, blossom 2"
