The Tangled Skein. BY A. E. T. I knew that they were lovers, Though their love was not confetsed, And even by their own young hearts That love was scarcely guessed. Like the first faint glow of morning, Like the coo of wooing dove, Was this joy that sweetly thrilled them -e The first awaking love. They were a handsome couple, He was a manly lad, And she was a winsome niaiden, Sweet -tempered, bright and glad. As they sat in the cottage parlor, The little maiden wrought So busy at her 'broidery frame— "So neecllessly," he thought. For, oh, he wished to talk top; To speak a tender word That rang and echoed through his heart; But, shy as any bird, She flew away if he but looked Too ardently his love. What could he do, what could he say, Her shyness to remove? • And so he silent sat and looked At her with wistful eyes; But if she noticed it atall; One only could surmise. But suddenly she turned to him— " Please hold this tangled skein— I m out of blue." I went away— When I came in again, The look of things bad changed somewhat; The work was laid aside; The lassie's pale, white lily cheeks Were with rose blushes dyed. Nn more he silent looked at her, But with a meaning plain He looked at me and laughirg said, " We've wound the tangled skein."

Sunday travelling comes up every Low and then for dismission, some- times in oue shape, semetimes in another. The arguments, pro and con, have been pret- ty well threshed out. It would, in beta be difficult to bring anything into the discussion that was not very much pf a chestnut. About the need of a periodical and absolute cessation from ordinary toil, in addition to the need of nightly rest, there is now in reality no great difference of opinion. Every sensible man whose opinion is worth anything acknowledges this.; and. even goes so far as to admit that one day in seven is just as good an arrangement as could be made, The everlasting grind is what kills, and if the physical nature is to be maintain- ed in anything like fair working power, such periodical rest must be secured and made use of. When this is ackaowledged the argument in favor of unbroken Sunday rest and against any ordinary work that can possibly be delayed till after or done before, is all but complete. To make some sacri- fice that privilege for the sake of others pleesure or amusement is simply indefens- ible selfishness. To say that some do it as an argument for all following suit is ab- surd. You might as well urge the fact of occasional theft to justify ,' the estab- lishment of a nation of thieves. The fact is the world is working far too much as it is. Instead of encroaching on the Sunday rest, it would be far better to take a good slice off Saturday for purposes of recreation and fresh air. aNalia should street car drivers, conductors, and horses not have their Sun- day rest? No reason at all, but that some want to make them Sundayless drudges in order that themselves may have sonie fun, ani fresh air, and that the people in the suburbs may have the Sunday quiet disturb- of one shilling for twenty words, the re- ed by noisy picnicers, if not by something turn for 1870 was 9,850,177; for 1875 it a great deal worse.

Is not the following narrative of fact and Iffort very pretty, and ought the course de scribed not to be followed by other ladies in other quarters? It is not necessary that these ladies should be rich and it is equally unnecessary that they should have much time at their disposal. If they have the will the way for doing good will surely be opened up: A New York paper recently told of what had just taken place at a grand dinner in it Fifth Avenue mansion. One of the guests wore a small Maltese cross of silver attached to a bit of purple ribbon. The gentleman sitting next her asked what wasthe meaning of the badge. She said : "It means that 1 I am a daughter ot the King." This naturally awakened astonishment and led to further enquiry. The fact was that the lady be- longed to an order of Christian women call- , ed "The King's Daughters," and the cross and ribbon was their badge. On one side of the cross were the letters I. H. N. mean - 1 ing "In His Name, "and on the other the year 1886, when the order was formed. This ! modest sisterhood, it seems, numbers I atnong its members hundreds of prominent i society girls in New York City. It is al- most without organization and in one sense almost without a definite purpose, and yet, said a lady in speaking of it, " in real truth it has underlying its name and motto the most far-reaching, wide -sweeping of all pur- poses, and in its results is the most truly beneficent of any society of the days" This society was the outgrowth of certain draw- ing -room Bible readings. The members lay down no rules or regulations for their work. They specify no particular line of work, but comprehend their whole desire and all pos- sible future service in their mottoes :— Look up, and not down; Look forward, and not back ; Look out and not in ;— Lend a hand. " The King's daughters" are not respon- sible to any one on earth, and consequently they do not cumber themselves with need- less organization. They are all divided into sections with ten in ep,ch. They began with ten and soon their numbers were to be counted by the hundred. Each ten chooses its own work and its way and time of doing it. One ten, for instance, chose the visita- tion of the sick children in hospitals. And now detachments of this ten regularly take turns in assisting, and in bringing dolls, picture books and toys of all sorts for the little ones. Another ten has undertaken to teach a class of poor working girls to sew and cdok. Another sing at hospitals beside sick beds and so on. One ten tries to /et people to tell the truth always. So it comes to pass that there is scarcely a branch of philanthropic effort which some of the circles do not touch upon. Circles have been formed in six or eight States already, and the work is continually widening and the " circles of ten" are always growing in number. Jay Gould's daughter is one of the guild, and is doing very earnest work. Here is how it works. Not long ago a wo- man whose fortune reaches far into the mil- lions was buying at the counter of a large dry goods store. Noticing that the shop girl wore a purple ribbon and a bit of silver on her breast, she said, "Is not that a badge you wear ?" "Oh, yes," quickly replied the girl. "Ian one of the King's daughters." The lady opened her cloak and on her own breast ley another silver cross and royal rib- bon. "Then we are sisters," she said, and held out her hand over the counter. Isn't this rather nice? Might it not be well that Canada should have a few circles of this pleasant Christ -like association? Of ourse the great (tenger would be its becom- ng a mere fashionable fad and so having its anks crowded with those svho had, a fancy or the name, who liked to have the badge pon their breasts and to play at its sup- ' osed duties without any deep practical ense of what was meant by" the &lighters 1 the King," and what was implied in the adge and the name. At the same time it s undoubtedly true that such associetions na sea badges may do much good. It ould not do to see a dozen or two of ' Daughters of the King," fooling away at ball and dancing for all they are Worth, ' ith the Maltese silver cross ttnd the In iia Naune " hill in view.
