I sit alone and listen-
For steps that never come;‘
And no sweet voice makes music
In my deserted home.

I hear no childish prattlc,
No patter of small feet,
And, when I pass my doorway,
No smiles my entrance greet.

I see no broken playthings,

No clothes that children wear,
And by my side, is only

A little empty chair.

Yet I go on rejoicing
That though my home is bare,
Heaven has an added number,
For all my babes are there.

“ Dear me l” sighed Mr. Turmoyle, as a
burst of shrill, childish laughter sounded
from the nursery down the hall stairs and
into the sitting room where he was making
out some accounts. “I wish those children
would be quiet! Ain’t it most bedlime,
Tillie?”

“ They are probably undressing,” Mrs.
Turmoyle replied quietly. “ I’ll go and see
if they are ready for bed." I ’ '

There was an interval of profound si-
ience, and in about half an hour the mother
returned.

“They are all asleep now," she said.
“Tom had dressed the kitten in Bessie’s

ing more wonderful than the revelations of read

a microscope. Any one who owns a good i;
one and knows how to ’use it to the best
advantage has an unending source. of enter-

tainment. Some one has noted down these
among the other remarkable thin
reveals:

“ Insects of various kinds can be seen in
the cavities of a rain of sand. Mold is a
forest of beautifu trees, with the branches,
leaves, flowers, and fruit. Butterflies are
fully feathered. llairs are hollow tubes.
The surface of our bodies is "covered with
scales like fish; a single grain of sand
would cover one hundred and fifty of these
scales, and yet a single scale covers five
hundred pores. Through these narrow
openings the sweat forces itself out like
water through a sieve-.- The mites make

' five hundred steps a'se'cond. ‘ Each ‘drop of.

stagnant water contains a world of animat-
ed being, swimming with as much libert
as whales in the sea. ' Each leaf has it co -
ony of insects grazing on it, like-oxen in a
meadow. A speck of potato-rot,~the size of
a pin head, contains about two hundred te-
rocious little animals, biting and clawing
each other savagely.”—Adoance.

re word to all—study music, and
The time has gone by
when it was possible for a singer not to be a
musician likewise. Moreover, only to Itali-

be at all,) not to know music, for they pos-

It was at ht. The earth, white and bean-

beneath the spell o the encbIsntress, sleep.
The myriad stars glimmered like camp-fires
of the angels along the bivouac of, heaven,
and thefnir' moon smiled down open the
world, placid, as a mother's face bending
over the cradle of her Ichild. I. Into the
broad plain of present being came an aged
man. Hishair and heard were whiter than
the snow Queen’s breast. Pain and sorrow
had fnrrowed his brow and touched his
features with iuefi'able sadne It was the

another hour and he‘mus't enteritis pres-

the destinies of many souls- And his heart
was breaking with the burden 0f sin and
shame, which the childreu’of men had com-
missioned him to laydowu before the judg-
ment seat 'of Eternal God; sin and shame
that would silence the song of angels around
the great white throne.
But his worn features were transfi red

Love. The lillies of- spring had folded

and dropped their fragrance-upon its innoi

conscious of its coming life it lay in the

‘ The aged man advanced with faltering

placing. his hand upon its head, tenderly-
blessed it. “Go forth! 0 beautiful'heiug

the child at his feet, and extended his hands
over the world, ‘sayin : "fFarewe'li, child-

But it has been decided in the spring to
purchase the land at $100,000, as in the
agreement, and then the working will be

500 tons will have been removed and the

A steam pump will be employed to remove
the water, which has not yet interfered
with the work. A large gang of men will
be put on, who will begin the work of drift-

ne of the Newburyport whsrves, and a
stock company will probably be formed. A
pur track will be built by the Boston and
Maine railroad to convey the ore from the
mine to the works. A company from Law-

which has secured acme land in the neigh
