HELD IN MEMORY.
We need tact as much as sympa-
thy when we speak of death ; death
more particularly of some one dear
to friend or acquaintance. Grief to
an almost abnormal degree, sharpens
the sensibilities, and by a curious
law of the mind difficult to conipres
Lend, it creates in the individual a
certain acuteness, a certain fastidi-
ousness, as it were, by which in
.Wally cases he becomes alive not so
touch to the sympathy expressed as
to the form in which that sympathy
has been proffered. In other words
the mind of the sufferer has for the
time being become as sensitive to
impressions as that of a sick person,
and as ready to be hurt by trifles.
The very tone of the voice may jar,
and one he hurt by a mournful
cadence, and the other by a note of
Lope, or well -meant but ill -chosen
words iu letters be as often cause
for pain RS the "creaking of clumsy
hoots" to fever -stricken patients.

life, "carried on" her late husband's
farm with a good deal of ability, but
with well close economy that her
saving devicee grew famoue iu 'the
country round about.
Next tel her economy of provis,
ions her economy of fire -wood was
perhaps her chief concern. At one
time a sister of her late husband
from "down oouutry" came to make
her a visit, and soon became con-
vinced that Betsey was endeavoring
to freeze her out. But psi haps
this Was not so, since tbe tempera-
ture was as Mrs, Hicks usually kept
Happily, beneficient nature in her
own time heals such sorrow, and
the part of the friendly counsellor
till that time be come is little better
than intrusion, It is when the
attitude of the mind becomes con-
ventionalized, a form of gi ief crysta-
lized into definite rules of observance
that the outsider desires to make
protest—as when a mourner waits a
year to the day before drawing up
the window shades or admitting
visitors ; or as when only outsof-
town invitations are accepted; or
one will listen to music, but draw
the line at the drama. Yet even
here there is so little that is vital to
which to make appeal that avoid-
ance of the subject seems rather
the easier way.
There is a subject, however, in
relation to the dead very vital to us
all—that of burying their memories
away in unbroken silence. We all
know those who do this, who hem
themselves so closely in with their
grief that no one dares speak of the
dead in their presence, who rob
themselves, and think it is the grave
that defrauds them. For the dead
are, indeed, twice dead to us when
their names are never on our lips,
when nothing that was best among
them is recalled, not with sentimen-
tal and false eulogy, but naturally,
as we would speak had they but just
gone somewhere for a little
while. For we make the dead
alive again when speech of them and
thought of them become part of our
daily life. The caress and all the
human touch may be no longer ours,
And the voice may be still, but the
abiding part remains. There is the
love that we knew; the gentleness or
grandeur of nature; the nobility, tbe
beau ty,the atrength,the tenderness of
thesistera smile, the generous, great-
hearted action of the friend; the un-
daunted candor of the child The
spirit of none of these can die. If
we banish them, it is we who be-
reave ourselves, burying the im-
mortal with the mortal remains of
those whose presence gladdened and
enriched our days,

"I declarer the visitor ventured
to exclaim. "I should thing you
kept it pretty cold here. Betsey."
"That 'ere pesky thermometer's
to blame, Susan," said Betsy. "I
guess it's got choked up. I can't get
it above fifty to save wy life 1"
Then she turned over the stick of
wood in the sheet -iron stove, while
her guest walked up and down the
room with her bands thrust up the
sleeves of her dress. .
The visitor remained at Aunt
Betsey's for several days, however,
in spite of the choked -up thermome-
ter, spending much of her time in
bed or watching a chance to smuggle
a stick into the stove when her
hostess was out of the room.
Late one afternoon she happened
to go out into the woodshed, and
found Aunt Betsey there, with an
old shawl wrapped around her
shoulders and a stick in her hand,
engaged in violently stirring some—
thing in a large tin can. A strong
smell of petroleum filled the air.
"Berney Hicks," said the visitor,
"what be you doicl'4"

said Aunt Betsey, "1 thought I'd

A NARROW ESCAPE FROM
HANGING.
bim,eo plain to their minds, endto
the tnitlda of the entire community,
waa it that both wen were guilty
beyond doubt,
"The last sunrise but one, for the
doomed than, was flooding his Ver-
mont homewhen who should appear
at the door but Russell Colvin—the
man for the the murder of whom
Boorn was upon the morrow to be
executed.
"The explanation of the whole
matter," added Judge Baldwin, "is
simple."
• "The two Boorne had jumped
upon Colvin in the field and beaten
him. He had .eseaped from them
leaving his hat behind, and so over.
powered was' he with fear that he
continued his flight until ho found
himself in New J:rsey. At the
last moment he had heard that one
of his persecuters was abont to be
hanged as his murderer, and al-
though he had suffered great brutal-
ity at his hands, !,Colvin immediate
ly hastened back to save the un
lucky fellow's neck. As for the the
confessions which the Boorns made,
particularly the full and very expli-
cit one, they were made simply to
save their neck.'
"One of the moat remarkable cases
that has ever come to my notice,"
said judge Baldwin, "was that of
the two Boorns, who were convicted
in the supreme court of Vermont, in
Bennington county, of the mur-
der of Russel Colviu. It appears
that Colvin; who was a brother-in-
law of the prisoners, was a person
of weak mind, and was consider-
ed burdensome to the family of the
prisoners, who were obliged to sup-
yort him ; that at the tiule of his
disappearance he was in a distant
field, where the prisoners were at
work ; that a violent quarrel had
broken out between them, and that
one of them had struck hien a severe
blow on the back of the head with a
club, which felled hint to the
ground. Some suspicious arose at
the time that he was murdered, and
these suspicions were increased by
the finding of his bat in the same
field a few menthe afterward.
THE SCHOOL MASTER
ABROAD.
In the annual report of Dr. Mc-
Lellan to the minister of Education
we find the following answers to
questions by pupils for promotion
to the fourth class :—
"Quebec is the capital of the
United States." "The Arctic ocean
flows into the Mississippi." "The
Pacific ocean flows into Hudson
Bay." "The Gulf of Mexico flows
inty the Arctic ocean." "An estu
ary is laud less than 1,000 feet
above the sea -level." "A valley is
water lying between hills." "A vial --
ley is the top of a mountain." "A
lake is a piece of land with water
all around it." "The products of
Canada are oatmeal, turnips and
figs." "A watershed is a sheltered
place for ships." "That is a verb ;"
"Kind is verb ;" "The is a pro-
noun ;" "With is a verb ;" "He is
a conjunction ;" "Heavy 1s a verb ;"
"Yesterday is a conjunction."
The cap sheaf is, however, put on
in arithmetic, when the question
was :—Find the price of eight hun-
dred and twenty pounds and eight
ounces of potatoes at 30 cents per
bushel. Professor McLellan says he
saw the answer papers of 14 candi-
dates. Not oue of the 14 had ob-
tained the correct answer, or had
reasoned rightly. Then follows
some of the answers and a sample of
the work ; 828 in notating was put
down 80028 lbs., and, at 30 cents
per bushel, $399.90.
The other answers were :—$821.-
40 ; $845.80 ; $3,976.8Q,: $384 ;
436.80; $2,968.80; $1,193.20.
"These suspicions in process of
time subsided, but later one of the
neighbors, having repeatedly dream•
ed of the murder with great minute•
of circumstances, both in regard to
the hissing man's death and the
concealment of his remains, the
Boerne were vehemently accused
end generally believed to be guilty
of the murder. After a close search
the pocket knife and a button of his
clothes were found in an old open
cellar in the same field in which he
had been last Been, and in a hollow
stump not many rods from it were
die covered nails and a number
of bones believed to be those of a
man.
"Just prior to their trials friends
of the Boerne said that the evidence
against thein was too unmistakably
plain for them to longer hold out,
and urged them to make a clean
breast of the entire matter, holding
that if they did so they would un•
doubtedly get their sentence of
death, which was sure to be the re
cult of their trial, commuted to im-
prisonment for life.
"The men were tried and sentenc-
ed to be hrnged. Their friends re-
newed their request that they make
a full confession. One of them fin-
ally complied with the request, de
tailing a long story as to just how
the murder had been committed.
the other confessed, but with great
reluctance and doggedness, and
would not go into details.
"The one who had made the full
confession had the sentence of death
commuted, while the sentence of the
penalty of the law wee ordered car-
ried out in the case of the other.
"As the day of the execution ap-
proached the doomed man made a
declaration that he and his brother
had lied ; lied outrageously, and
that for his part he would not risk
lean -Avis -NI alter -with sso-teveltel-a-lio,
upon his soul. The declaration with
received simply as a an act of su-
preme cowardice in the face of
death, and caused all but two or
three of his most intimate friends
of the maker of it to turn against

MAKING .2;i'NIS'.i•"ERS ,A.NOEi.
Not long since the 'Iin.isterial.
Association of Toronto denounced
in aevere terms the terpsichorean
recreation of ' dancing. Their
strictures has brought out iu tba
Telegram numerous remonstrances
from lovers of the mazy whirl.
"Helena" says :--
I was sadly impressed by the low
language and thoughts of some of
the ministers It is to our ministers
we look wore than to any other
class of men for• pure thoughts,
pure deeds, pure expressioes. and
noble sentiment, but where are auy
of these to be found in the speeches
of Rev. Dr. Parsons and Dr.
Parkers I question whether any
two amen could be found at the
police oourt wbocould give veut to
such vile language which they
knew full well would go out to the
world. I for one could never open
any door to either of these ministers.
I would not consider it safe to
introduce such men to my daugh-
ters or friends, for though they
preach the gospel every Sunday,
and attend their pastoral work dur-
ing the week, there must be some-
thing radically wrong with their
moral natures, and association with
them must consequently be lower-
ing. I will not attempt to deny
that dancing, in some instances, as
well as theatre going has led to •
harm, but I feel very much as Rev.
Mr. Milligan does about it, "that it
is wrong, to jump at hasty couclu-
°ions." I would not condernn the
ministry because some ministers
have gone astray or because some
entertain such low ideas as Dr.
Parsons and Dr. Parker do.
We hear much about "immoral
books" and "immoral plays" but I
do not think these men could find
any book or play in Canada to -day
with such low suggestions or iu fact
so reeking in "filth" (to use Dr.
Parsons inelegant word) as their
few sentences this morning.
DIDN'T WANT HER LOVE IN
SECTIONS.
As a rule, Chauncey M. Depew
has new stories at his finger ends
each day. It is almost impossible
to put in cold type the humor of one
of hie stories, for the chief charm
consists in his iniioitebte way of
telling them. Not long ago a
'nature spinster called upon the
famous after-dinner speaker and
asked hire to eivc• Ler some iuforma•
tion about real estate. He said
there were two things he knew
nothing about, and they were women
and real estate. This reply amused
her, and she asked him a number of
e tom
questions about people whom they
both knew in common. After she
propounded the following questions
about a statnwering bachelor, she
her way :
asked no more, but went
"Where is Mr. Blank, Mr. De.
pew !"
"He is in the city," replied the
only Chauncey.
"Does he stammer as much as
usual 1"
"Oh, yes, worse I believe," said
the orator.
"It is my impreseion," says
Charles Dudley Warner "that a
farm without a boy would come to
grief. What a boy does is the life
of a farm. He is the factotum, al-
ways in demand, and always ex-
pected to do the thousand and
one things that nobody else will do.
Upon him falls the odds and ends
the most difficult things. After
everybody else ie through he is to
finish up. His work is like a wo-
man's—perpetually waiting on oth
els. Everybody knows how so
much easier it is to cook a nice din-
ner than to wash the dishes after-
wards. Consider what a boy on a
farm is required to do—things that
must be done, or life would actual-
ly stop. It is understood, in the
first place, that he is to do all the
errands, to go to the store, the post -
office, and to carry all sorts of mes-
sages. If he had as many lege as
the centipede, they would tire be-
fore night. He is the one who
spreads the grass as the men cut it ;-
he stows it away in the barn ; he
rides the horse to cultivate the corn
up and down tbe bot, weary,rows ;
he brings wood and water and splits
kindling ; he gets up the horse and
turns out thes'hor'se. Whether he is
in the house or out of the house
there is always something to do.
Just before school in the winter
he shovels paths; and in the sum
mer he turns the grind stone. And
yet, with his mind full of schemes
of what he would like to do, and
his hands full of occupation, he is
an idle boy who has nothing to busy
himself with but schools and chores.
He would gladly do all the work if
somebody else would do the chores,
he thinks ; and yet I doubt if any
boy ever amounted to anything in
the world, or was of much use as a
man, who did not enjoy the advan-
tages of a liberal education in the
way of chores."
NOT A MIRACLE, NOW.
Until recently Consumption was doo-
sidered incurable, but now people are
beginniee to realize that the disease is
not incurable. The oure of Consumption
ie not a miracle, now. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery will cure it,
if taken in time and given a fair trial.
This world-renowned remedy will not
make new lungs, but it will restore
