the recitation, "There were shepherds
abiding in the field," ending with " 4c1
there were with the angel a multitude of
the heavenly host praising Godand sing-
" Glory to God. Glory to God in the
highest," broke in the full chorus, and
the child no longer knew if she were in
the body or not.
Then came the soprano solo, ?Bei'
joke Greatly 0 Daughter of Zion," and
as the soloist rose in her place sh
grew suddenly ill and would .have fal
len if she had not been assisted froti
the platform.
The conductor went out and returned
'faith a troubled face.
"It was only a temporary illness but
,he would not be able to sing immediate-
. be 'Would not same one among the
chorus soprani take her place for this
solo?"
There was a sensation among the firsi.
sopranos and a nervous 'turning of
scores, but no one moved or seemed
likely to move.
After a breathless, expectant moment,
a small figure stepped into the soprano
sOktist's place ; a small figure in a plain
black dress and with ungloved hands,1
moving as if not of its own volition.
The conductor was startled but not
iv -holly surprised, and without waiting
an ihsta.nt, raised his baton. The vio-
lins swept in with the introductory
movement and then out poured that
clear voice with its strangely resonant,
eympathetie quality, singing, "Re-
joice, rejoice greatly, 0 daughter of
Zion."
The stirred, audience held its breath,
persons rising in their seats to see this
email figure in black with floating hair,
but she saw only her mother's face in a
distant corner of the hall and the con-
ductor's baton saingiug steadily • like
the hand of fate.
She stood with the closed score in her
clasped hands, perfectly still, with up-
lifted face and swelling throat, singing
with a marvelous conception of the
spirit of the theme on to the clos-
ing, "Behold thy King coineth unto
-thee."
And to the vast audience He seemed
leerily at hand.
There broke out an uncontrollable
storm a applause and the child, fright-
ened, now drew hack into her place in
the chorus ranks.
When the concert was ended, some
enthusiastic persons in the audience
gathered about the conductor to inquire
concerning the impromptu solo singer.
He gladly told them the little she knew
and the more he suspected, anti from
that night the child's fortune was as-
sured. There was no lack of interest or
means to procure her the best possible
training.
And truly happier days had come.
The poor mother laid aside her needle
and lived to see the child the most cel-
ebrated singer in the land,flartford

A story is told as.authentic of a young
man in the Highlands of Scotland who
became a drunkard, a gambler, and in
the expressive Scotch ,phrase, "a ne'er-
do-weel." His father owned a small
farm which had -been in the family for
two hundred years. But to save Jock
from the consequences of his misdoing,
he was obliged to mortgage it, far
beyond the possibility of redemption.
The old mansank under the disgrace
and misery, and died, 'leaving his wife;
two or three children, and worthless
Jock. But the shock of his death
brought the boy -to his -senses. He, fore-
swore cards and whisky, came home,
and turned in to hard work. He toiled
ateadily for years. At last his mother
was " struck, with death?' I
Jock, now a middle-aged, grizzled
arm er, ntern and, grave, was sent- for

seventy to stand in the market -place" of
Tittoxeter, his grey head bare to the

genie act of disobedience to his father on

But of what avail are these tears or

or mother whom we • have hurt` and

vant without a servant's wages, or a lad

their remorse in an exceeding bitter cry,

Brain. and 'Cheek. I
•
A Brain sat, one day, in exquisite
cmiet,absorbing Trojn tomes of calf -cover-
ed lore the burning thought§ of brawny
brains long gone before, when the door
opened with a slam-bang, and a bard,
brazen, brutal, sneering Cheek stalked
in -with the air of one who owned the
earth, took the best seat in the sanctum
sanctorum, and put his No. 11 boots on
the table.
The Brain looked up in a startled way
and waited for the hard, brazen, brutal,
sneering Cheek to speak. _
• Well," began the Cheek, tilting back
his chair, and taking up the Office scissors
and beginning to cutehiet nails : "it
Seems we meet again. Every now and
then you run across my path,and though
you get most emphatically worsted in
every encounter you have with me, you

foh both of us," 'said the Brain, meekly.
• " And so it is," answered the Cheek,
"if you would oily keep in your place;
but that you won't. You're always get-
ting in my way; you are always trying
to do something. you don't know how toe

with things that I alone am capable of -
handling ; you are invariably putting
your oar into things that belong to my
especial province. Therefore when you
get worsted you can't blame me. 1 Here
you're talking about the world being big
enough for both of us, and yet you won't

blackest scowls, was silent for a moment

Uses to Which Paper May Be
Put.
Paper, being nearty air -tight, will ex-
clude cold, and should be used more than
it now is. ' Builders placepaper between
the boards and clapboards of a -house,
and we sh uld do well to follow , their
;
example in small matters. Farmers have
found that he extra warmth secured by
tacking sevaral thicknesses of newspapers
around the inside of hen -houses; etc.,
has saved extra food. A layer of paper
under a carpet is .preferable to straw,
which is isoinetimes used, and if the
paper Made for this purpose cannot be
obtained, several layers of newspapers
will do nearly as well. Papers spread
between bed coverings will take the
place of extra blankets. A folded iaper
is an excellent lung -protector; one over
the chest and another around the shoul-
ders, under the outside garment, would
save a cold, and perhaps pneumonia.
Dissolved i in flour -paste, newspapers
make a useful filling for cracks in floors
and elsewhere. Scraps of paper, wet,
and stattered ovet the floor,when sweep-
ing, will save the cruet in the room as
well as brighten the carpet. Bits of
paper, with soap suds, are 4effectual in
cleaning betties, and are easily removed
with the lwater. Greasy dishes and
kettles, if first rubbed with paper, wash
much easier ; the paper absorbs the
grease, and is all the better for kindling
the fire. A grease spot can Often be
taken out of a carpet or garnient by
placing three layers of paper over it,
then put a Itvatin iron on the paper. The
heat softens the grease and the paper
absorbs it, and by changing paper and
iron occasionally, all the grease will
disappear. Soft newspaper or tissue
paper, is preferable to cloth for cleaning
lamp chimneys, windows, mirrors, etc.;
asit leaves no lint; also for knives,
spoons, and tinware after scouring; and
a stove will not need blacking as often if
now and then rubbed with paper: Scraps
Of writing paper, or that used on one
side only, may be utilized in several
ways. Bowls and glasses withont covers
inarlse used for jelly, by cutting a round
of paper the size of the top,dip in brandy
and press down evenly upon the jelly,
cut another cover of soft paper large
enough to paste down on the outside of
the jar. . P.aper in bread and cake tins
protects -the loaf from burning, and in-
sures its safe removal from the tin; by
this help a 1 tin with holes in it may be
used. Laid over a loaf of cake in the
oven, paper is a sure protection, but un-
less it is warmed first the :cake may
settle. Cut in strips and curled with
the scissors! aiiriting paper makes a.good
filling for pillows for, hammocks, or the
large pillows sometimes used to show off
the elaborate "shams." Postal cards
and thin pastehoard can be cut in thin
strips for lamp -lighters ; newspapers for
the same Use are cut in strips and rolled.
