1H11 USUAL PI0.NI(.: JOEES,
The pie•]lie Beason now is. here,
And the parngraphist
Will do hie duty, never fear, '
On jokes 1113 no'or has missed:
The young man in the now light pants
Will crush the blithe 138188111 pie;
Thosandwiohae alive with ants
Will make the children ory,
Fond Were in the forest glade,
Their eager love will toll,
When all at once the timid maid
Will See 8 snake and yell.
Tho man who swings the pretty girls
Will make Pia shoulders lame ;
The duds who trice to row a boat
Will wonder why he came.
The thunderstorm that ends the fun
Will crash down prompt at four ;
With startled shrieks the Ririe will run
And drabblsd skirts deplore.
THE SILVER LINING.
There's never a day so sunny
)3ut a little cloud appears ;
There's never a life so happy
But has had its time of tears ;
Yet the Bun shines out the brighter
When the stormy tempest clears.
There's never a garden growing
With roses in every plot ;
There's never a heart so hardened
But is has one tender spot;
We have only to prune filo border
To find the forget.me-not.
There's never a sup so pleasant
But bus bitter with the sweet
There's never a path so rugged
that bears not the print of feet,
And we have a Helper promised •
For the trials wo may meet.
There's never a sun that rises
But we know 'twill set nt night;
The tints that gleam in the morning
At evening are jest se bright;
And the hour that is the sweetest
is between the dark and light.
There's never a dream that's happy
13o1 the waking makes us sad ;
There's never a dream of sorrow
But tho waking makes us glad ;
We shall look some day with wonder
At the troubles wo have had,
SOMETBING PLEASANT TO SAY.
If a neighbor comes in
With axed, sorry face,
The sunshine gond out of his day,
Then lift up the blind
That the Tight may shine in,
And have something pleasant to say.
There is nothing so sweet
As a few kindly words,
13e they ever so poorly expressed—
A amino that's sincere,
A tear of regret,
To the heart that is sorely distressed.
When the good man comes in,
Leaving Labor behind,
Oh 1 moat him, fond helpmate, half way ;
Remember hie home
In hie haven of root,
And have something pleasant to say.
Tho words may be simple
That gives mother joy ;
And free from all musical art ;
But ah I she can toll,
With her well attuned ear,
That they came from the depths of the
heart.
Around the home table
How charming to hear
Sweet converse go on day by day,
Each ono taking part.
In the subjects discussed,
Having something that's pleasant to say.
Golden speech I pleasant words I
All so blessed to hear,
That an angel might bear them above—
So tender and true—
Like the sun and the dew,
They will bring forth the blossoms of love-

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.
The Knights of Pythias took pos.
session of Toronto loot week. Besides
those a great many etrangere were in
the city, and it is estimated that not
lose than 10,000 people from a dis-
tance swelled the populace of Toronto
last week. Tho citizens had made
groat preparations for the straugere
and flags and every hind of decoration
gave to the streets a holiday appear-
ance. The hotele and boarding hous-
es were all full and many of the
knights W1t11 their wives encamped on
the Exhibition grounds.
The Knights of Pythias have now
been organized 22 years. The Order
originated in the city of Washington,
D. 0., ou February 15th, 1804. The
Order is of a secret oharaator, having
for its ultimate object Friendship,
Benevolence and Charity. Its prinoip•
les aro embodied in the beautiful story.
of 'Damon and Pythiae,' which affords'
ono of the grandest itietancee of un •
selfish devotion and friendship outside
of the Bible. Damon was a Pythag-
orean and friend of Pythias, who was
a member of the same sent. When
the latter was condemned to die for
n plot against Diouysine 1, of Svrn-
ouse, ho asked leave of the tyrant to
depart for the purpose of arranging
hip domestic affairs, promising to
find a friend who would bo pledged
for his appearance nt the time ap•
pointed for his punishment. To the
surprise ofDionysins, Damon unhesi-
tatingly offered himself to be put to
death inetead of his friend should he
fail to return. Pythias returned just
in time to redeem Damon, and D1on-
ysiue Wa0 so struck with this instanoe
of firm friendship on both sides, that
lie pardoned the criminal, and intreat'
ed to bo admitted as a third into their
bond of friendship.
The ritual and practices of the Order
are largely copied from feudal times
when Knights, Squires and Pages com-
posed the chivalry of Europe. The
Knights are uniformed and when iu
full dress look well in their helmets
and plumes. They are thoroughly
drilled and are expert in all kinds of
military manoeuvres.The Order has
nowa membership of nearly 200,000
able•bodied white men., Each juris•
diction of under 20,000 members sends
two representatives, and one repro•
sentative is allowed for each addition-
al 10,000 members' It: is customary
for the members of the Order to honor
the Supreme Lodge by flocking in
thousands to the city whore it mote,
forming a gigantic demonstration as
that witnessed in Toronto. The Order
is increasing in Ontario, and a Grand
Lodge has been established with its
headquarters in Toronto.
Push.

clothed, homeless, suffering children ;
fewer broken-down, diesipatod mea

houses of correction and homes for the

neighbor in trouble; Push means a
lift' for yourself out of the slough of
despondency and shiftlessness, out of
trouble, real and fancied. Push nev•
er hurts anybody. The harder the
push the bettor, if it is given in the
right direction. Always push up hill
—few people need a push down hill.

Why not iuvito the authors of the
teachers' examioatioe papers to worry
a (ate problems into shape themselves
before they lire permitted to engage
in the annual massacre of oandidutes
for certificates ? It could not but
prove a wllole,tome preliminary to the
official duties they perform with so
much energy stud ardour. Why not
assail thstn with a program like the
following for instance :—
"Totes number of marks obtainable
100. Necessary to pass, 50 per cont.
Time two hours.
"(1) Value 12, time 20 minutes."
1t' it takes au examiner 0 mouths 4
days 7 hours and 37 minutes to pre-
pare a double action, loak•spriug, pat-
ent oaten problem, by what rule may
a candidate find the solution in 11
minutes 59f monde ?
"(2) Value 8, time 15 minutes."
What is the exact profit, Canadian
currency, in the pursuit of the fanci-
ful and theoretical as against the
sound and practical in educ0tloeal ap-
quiremeuts
(8) Value 30, time 15 minutes,"
If a skilful stenographer c1111 Iran•
scribe his notes at the rate of 26
words a minute, what is to prevent a
candidate for a certificate engaged in
the solution of a difficult problem from
writing 2,000 words iu twelve min-
utes ? Give examples.
"(4) Value 20, time 10 minutes."
If it Gould be ehown to be fitting
that the glorious, pious, and immor-
tal memory of George 1Vaehington
should be celebrated on the 17tH of
March, would thorn still exist histor-
ical objections 1) the observance of
the anniversary of American Inde-
pendence on mo 1st of April ?
"(5) Value 15, time 20 minutes."
If x and parry 1 represent the ma-
jorityrof a candidate in au election,
by how, much would he have been de-
feated if he had divided his vote with
a third candidate ?
"(6) Value 20, time 26 minutes."
Hit takes three examiners 0 months
12 days and 14 hours to pluck 10
studeute, what should be the highest
quotation for feathers on the 1st of
March next ?
"(7) Value 15, time 15 min utes."
Estimate the excess of theoretical
examiners over the actual needs of
the population.
