BAGS! Through the study woods, where sweet ilowers blossom*! in wild Iwxur ience, and twisted creepers made an al most impassible barrier, wont two chil dren, slowly but surely fighting their way along. Now anoWen a ray of sunlight glint ing througlijhe trees fell across these pretty lure heads and lovely dusky ThdjFdreeses of rich cream embroid ery gathered about tho waist by delicate pink ribbons; bows of the same rosy hue held back their thickly-clus tered cnrls; tiny worked socks and pink kid shoes completed toilettes fit for anj yenng princesses. But Zoe and Fay Marchmont were not princesses, only two very wilful, thoughtless little girl*, who. having es caped from nurse's vigilant eyes whilst she bushed baby to sleep, had run on and on, until, once in the woods all re morse fled in the delight of chasing the bright-winged butterflies. •Are you tired ?' Zoe asked presently, turning to her youuger sister. •No, not very; but Zoe, will nursie lie dreadful angry V' Zoe laughed saucily. She did not care what anxiety their absence might be causing to those at home ; a feeling of reckless joy, ot intense freedom had taken possession of her. The pathway became less closely to gether as they reared the end. "When at last the children stepped out into the open road, both paused in silent won der. •Do yon know the way ? Shall we be home soon ?' Fay inquired eagerly ; for in spito of her former denial, she did begin to feel a triflo weary. 'Oh yes ; we only have to eo straight up this road; don't you remember T Fay did not remember ever having passed that way before; but she was too obedient and yielding to say so. Hand-in-hand, scarcely ever exchang ing a word, the children wandered n long, still hoping to shortly reach their home. Presently voices fell on their ears loud, gruff voices such as they rarely heard before. Momentary terror made them pause for one instant, then Zoe, with firm steps, marched on. 'There are some people in that field ; suppose we go and ask them if we are going the right way ? 'Very well.' Fay agreed wearily, though she shrank timidly behind her sister as they naared the huge tent standing iu the field. ▲ party of rough-looking women were washing at a tiny clear spring, shoqting to each other all the while ; several sunburnt children lay rolling on the grass, filling the air with their joy ous cries. Zoe dragged poor frightened Fay close to the big tent, near where a tall young girl stood, one brown arm flung around the shaggy neck of a gentle-eyed donkey. Iler pretty face attracted Zoe, and she gazed wonderinply at the long masses of red-brown hair, which fell carelessly about the gipsy's shoulders ; her surprised eyes were full of interest, as the two childrenapproached her. •Well,' she exclaimed, sharply, trying in vain to make her voice less harsh ; •what do you want *' •Is this the way to Marchmont Grange ?' Zoe asked. Tbe girl laughed scorn full v, and dashed the clustering hair from her eyea. 'ry •I say, mother,' she cried, mockingly, •here are twe ladies who have lost their way. Do you know the place they want ?' •Wait a moment, Meg, don't frighten the poor mites,' one of the women an swered, and wringing tbe linen she was washing she spread it upon the grass, and hurried towards them. With arms akimbo she scanned the children closely for several seconds. •What are you doing here ? Why are you alone ?' she asked. Zoe smiled, and drew Fay into great a er prominence by, one swift jerk. | wanted vjo for a walk by our sHyfes but now I %on*t know which is our road; could you show us ?' she said, gravely. •Which way did you come ?' •[Through the woods.' The gipsy hesitated, and for a mo ment tier envious glance was riveted hpin tbe beautiful coral necklaces and shining gold bracelets worn by the little sisters. That look soon changed to an expression of gentle compassion. •You ought not to have come out a lone ; you might have been robbed and murdered in that lonely wood. Hurry back now, there's dear children, or yonr mother will break her heart at your loss.' •Are we to go again through the woods ?' Zoe asked, pathetically. 'l'm afraid so ; I don't like your go ing by yourselves, but there's no help for it. Run off, dears, it is getting late.' They turned to obey her, but Fay started back with a stifled shriek,cling ing with all her force to Zoe. •Oh, Zoe, take him away—he will bite me!' The cause of her distress, a hungry, ragged-looking dog, came nearer and sniffed their dainty dresses, then gazed up into 2pt's face with a word of gen tleness In nis big eyes. 'Dear doggie 1 See, Fay, dearest, he won't hurt you—he is quite good,' Zoe said, soothingly, and she laid her hand caressingly on the dog's big head. •Rags never hurt a child in bis life, forget you in a hurry.' Rag wagged bis tail,and gazed know ingly from bis mistress to tbe smiling child. As Zoe dragged rather then led Fay away, the gipsy looked after them kindly. 'I hope no harm will come to them, pcfor pretty creatures ! Their mother must be grieving even now at their ab sence. Hallo ! where's Rags ?' Meg laughed, and pointed to the lane where two tiny forms were hastening— after them, near, yet keeping out of sight, followed a large dog, which the gipsy recognized as Rags. 'HfV jncire thoughtful than I,' she muttered as she turned aside. 'No harm can happen (o them whilst Rags keeps them company.' Zoe was glad when she found Kags had gone with them ; lie guessed so cleverly which way to go, and the easiest spot for them to pass, that the road seemed twice as short. Once they met a wretched tramp,who fixed his eyes so greedily upon the chil dren's rich clothes, that Fay uncon sciously cried aloud; a savage growl from Kags, and the flash of his fierce tangs was enough to send the man on ward, muttering vengeance against the faithful boast. They were very tired and hungry when l hey at length reached March mont Grange, but their appearance caused intense joy in the house. 'You naughty, darling children 1' Mrs. Marchmont exclaimed, catching them in her arms and kissing the pretty pale faces over and over again, 'What anguish you have given me ! Never, never go away like that again.' 'We were all right, mamma,' Zoo said calmly ; 'and dear old Kags knew the way quite well. May we keep him V 4 lf you like, darling.' But to this notion Kags noisily re belled. After eating a hearty meal,and having licked the children's hands in farewell, he whined pitiously to be set tree. 'lt is no use, we must let him go,' Mrs. Marchmont said; but before open ing the door she fastened a handsome collar around bis shaggy throat, and to this attached a purse well filled with gold. On a slip of paper was written : 'With love and gratitude from Zoe and Fay.' ou may bo sure the gipsies wero not displeased when Bags came home, and Meg's mother could not help feel ing glad she had resisted her first im pulse to rob the children instead of sending them back in safety, as she eventually did. SO.MK RAILWAY HUMOR. A Compilation of Jokes, Good, Had and ludlflerent- Our most celebrated living art critic, Mr. Raskin, has a very strong objec tion to the railway being carried through any district where there is ex ceptionally beautiful senery; and yet a railway and its stations do not of ne cessity disfigure the landscape; indeed there are many pretty railway stations dotted here and there over the country. It may be, however that most of the whole number are anything but pleas ant places, and it may be concluded that very few of them are places calcu lated to giye much amusement. Still, there is none which may be said to supply both of these requirements. A house near to it was advertised as an eligible summer residence, on both of the aoove mentioned accouuts. "It commands," said the advertisement, "not only a view of the pretty little railway station, but also of the peoile who miss the (trains." Thus beauty and amusement. Railway plant is uot very suggestive of humor. Such of the drolltry as one comos across is almost as heavy and quite as lumbeisorae as the greater part of the plaut itself. Surely it must have a serious travail of the uiind to bring to light such a conundrum as the following; "Why is a locomotive en gine like a comet V Because it Las a head-light auu carries a long train." Of course there are worse jokes, even off the line, but one does not ofteu meet with them. A New York paper is guilty of perpetratlug the following: ' A Western iailroad company is seri ously thinking of calling its main road "The Primogeniture Route," because it is the heir line." A very fair attempt at a joke of the ! lugubrious kind was once committed by a guard on one of the short midland lines. The company was very [small and very poor, and it was just a little more than they could do to make ends meet at the yearly day of reckoning. There were not many conveniences for the passengers, and indeed they .were not quite so much cared for as the goods in the wagons that were fixed up with the carriages. As for the guard ats ome of the stations on the line he was ticket clerk, station-master, pas senger porter, and goods-porter all in OD6. Just before leaving the junction on a certain day, a fussy passenger called him to the window. "Look here, guard," he said ; "why don't you have foot-warmers in these carriages ? We shall get our death of cold." "Well, you see," responded the guard, "one of the directors is a doc tor,another is a chemist, and another is a'.tombstone mason; and you know in this woild people must live and let live. So you see," "All right, guard; go ahead. You ought to have had another director a coffin-maker, and then we could have got a special catastraphe for the benefit of the directorate. "W9 aveh a coffin-maker amongst them, sir ; but I thought it would be too suggestive to mention him." "Ah, well, it is rather suggestive," said the passenger. "So what do you think of au accident, for the express benefit of your mixed lot of directors ? "Express, did you say f" asked the guard. "Ah, you have not been on this line before; or you would not talk like that. Why, sir, we dout [go fast enough to come to any harm, even if we ran off the lines; and as for a colli sion, tbat is au impossibility, for our only Other engine is laid up withi a twisted cylinder mid ft broken wheel.

Perhaps men are more deficient in this exercise than anythinff thing else it becomes us to render to God. Pray er is something we are impelled to by the very unbearablenesa of our circum stances at times, and always by our felt wants. Non praying men ejaculate a prayer often in their extremity ; it is rare, however, to hear them say, "Thank God." How surprised as well as grieved we should be, if we could for a little while, from a heavenly standpoint observe tlio stream of thought and word that constantly flows from earth to heaven. Would it not be a decidedly muddy stream, (colored, as it would be, by the murmurings, the cursings, the lusts that till so large a place in earth's daily life V How small would bo the proportion of that stieam which consisted of the pure waters of love, thankfulness and praise. Vet who does not perceive, that In greater volume, a hundred fold, than thesmoke that rises from the multiplied Urea of busy earth, should be the blessed cloud of iucense from praising hearts V We do not esteem that fiietul very highly who brings us nothing but a constant succession of complaints, who never comes to say, " I enjoyed your last kind visit." 4 Thank yon for your gift, it helped me so much," but repeats the story.of old woes, or dis courses on some new, real or fancied, sorrow that I.as come into his life. It seems right and fitting to us that ac knowledgment should be made of b'ess ings we have bestowed, and we place that nature low down in our estima tion which can not perceive the obliga tion. There are such men with whom the law of life is, "Take all, give back little or nothing." And sad to say, tlie Chief Giver of .ihe universe expe riences just tills treatment at the hands of yery many men and women. We arc not deficient [in piayer, after a certain fashion, but we are woefully deficient in thegrare of praise. It was a prominent characteristic of the early Christians that they "ate their food with gladnesa and singleness of heart, praising God." It would be a blessing of the first magnitude if lids same spirit was present in every modern Christian breast. When shall we ar rive at that point, in a Godly life, that the most common thought of the heart shall be, not, "It is too bad," or "It is a great pity," but "Praise God." That is what the heavenly mind will produce, that is what you ought to aim at. But, some say. in order to praise we must haye something to praise for, and how can a heart that is burdened fail to utter a groan, rather than a word that implies pleasure ? Notice that in their mental exercises men ofteu act as if they had two eyes with seperate and distinct functions, the one capable of seeing only that which is pleasant, the other adapted to seeing only the disagreeable. Now in exercising this power, we are accustomed to close one eye whenever we use the other, so that unmingled sadness or unmingled jiy is the felt emotion filling the soul. This is the secret of your being unable to praise God heartily in the worst day your life has ever brought you. It is not that you have nothing to praise for, but your door of happiness you have closed, while you have opened wide the opposite door. Have you never felt rebuked when you have gone to the bedside of pain and have been greeted wiih a smile V Perhaps that very morning the temporary disap pointment of a shower had driven from your face its smiles, and from your heart the thought of praise. Can the poor rheumatic sing, "Praise God from whom atl blessings flow," while you cau walk, and run, and even dance, think you are too much afflicted to sing any song of joy ? Thus do oth er people's sorrows shame us in our fancied troubles. In this department of the Christian life, as in all other departments, we ought to be learners. Learn to pmse ! Why that ought to be spontaneous and absolutely free-hearted. Yes, it will be when you have planted the spring of praise deep in your nature and have learned to keep your heart's door of blessing always open. Do yon teach the voice to sing, and can you not teach the heart the language of praise ? In vain shall we attempt to please God perfectly while our devo tions consist iu a constant repetition, •Grant, Lord—Grant, Lord,' while we forget to say, 'Thanks and praise unto thee for thy many mercies.' The characteristic of heaven as it is revealed to us is praise. Let us wake up to the fact how far we are from heaven, if this i 9 not the characteristic of our life. Whither are you going, brother V If you are nearing a land of spices, you should be able to catch some of its per fume on the breezes that eume from its shores, and should have the heart to say,' How glad lam for thi9 lefresh ment I' To sing, 'Nearer to Thee' is one thing, to have the experience is quite another thing. Warbling is not always praising. We have many war blers, how many of them are praising hearts ? Count that day a dark one, and an unworthy one, in which your thoughts haye not mounted to the throne of God laden with the sweet in cense of praise. A True Picture. The woids quoted below were written 2450 years ago. Is there anyone who will read such an accurate description of man and say that the words are not inspired ? With all the accumulated wisdom of modern times we do not be lieve that such a perfect picture of hu manity could be drawn. —"There is none upright among men; they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net. ***** •'The best of them is a briar: the most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge. * * * * "Trust ye not in a friend ; put ye not confidence iu a guide; keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lietli in thy bosom." Tin; urn i;s. A Look Info I lie (iron! I'risoit of HIP Metropolis. What ia calloil tho Tombs consists of tlireo prisons. Tlio oldest one is tlio plnco where crirailia's of the most burd ened sort are kept. it is u long, high* narrow dungeon with four rows of cells, one above tlio other, and numbering 144 altogether. A box stands at the main entrance and an armed guard pro tects It. Inside two other guides are stationed. A winding staircase leads to the top of the building, connected with a platform at every floor which t x tends all around the tier of cells. The ilrst floor is used entirely for maniacs and condemned persons. The right side has borne for many years the title of 'Murderers' How.' I'added cells for persons inflicted with homicidal mani acs, a hospital cell where sick persons are treated, and a penitentiary cell for disciplinary cases occupy tho rest of the floor. On the second tier criminals whoso offenses are serious but not of tho capital grade are kept. These are felons of all kinds. Above them are misdemeanants. When the old Toiubs is full, it will hold 2NS persons. Its usual census contains about J3O names, It is doubtful if A i;ity prison could be conducted on a better or more humane principle than prevails here. The dis cipline is necessarily strict but not se vere. All the work is done by the con victs who are there for comparatively light offenses,usually ten-day prisoners. These are permitted to take the Hi at 'help' at the tables and allowtdtoeat in comfort. As they could have no possible desire to run away, their term b"ing short and the penalty of attempt ed escapes bting severe, they roam a bout doing t heir work without much in terference. As in almost all prisons, so in the Tombs, there are persons wearing the prison garb who are not in actual con finement. I saw an old woman there who was arrested 20 years ago. She is now a confirmed rheumatic, all bent with age and pain and scarcely able to get In and out of the invalid chair where her days and nights were spent. Her face has drawn tranquil and bene ficent in its expression. Years ago she committed a great crime to save her husband from disgrace. The jury re fused to convict her and disagreed. She stayed on iu the Tombs, gradually se curing the confidence of the keepers un til she lost sight of her friends—or tliey lost sight of her. She made herself use ful to the matrons and declares now that her last days, albeit three feet of rock separate her from freedom, are the happiest she has ever sjient. An old silver.headed man is there, too, whose step and bearing have not lost their dignity despite his suffering and laborious work. He looks as if he might be eighty years old, but the keep er told me that he was scarcely sixty. No one knows mucli about him now ex cept good old Matron French, who has been there thirty-six years, (and they say the Tombs is not a healthy place), and Deputy Warden Finley, whose rec ord is nearly as long. Tliev never an swer questions noout the old man. for they would not hurt the old man's feel ings for the world. I heard, however, that ho had killed a man at the behest of n human tigress many years ago. This old man was tried and convicted. He got a new trial and was reconvicted and got a reversal again. He has never since been tried and there lie remains, sad, bowed, but still showing traces of itis former grace and strength, sawing and cutting and driving nails,while his heart istieingtorn with the teeth of a relentless memory.—A*. I*. Tribune. True but Remarkable. "Yes, I'm from Dakota," he said meekly, as he got into conversation with a man on an Eastern train. "Ah, is that so ? lum thinking of going out there myself to invest in some farming land." "We have sonio very fine land." "So I understand, but are not some of the stories they tell of its fertility exaggerated V" "Why, my friend I am sorry to say some of them aredownrighc untrutns." "Thai's what I thought. Now what is the most remarkable instance of the fertility of Dakota soil which evei came under your observation ?" "Well I believe the case of my pump might go at the head of the list." "What was it ?." "I dug a well about forty feet deep the first season I was there and put down a wooden pump. It happened it was made out of a small Cottonwood log which was a little green and the soil at the bottom of that well, forty feet from the surface, was so fertile that the pump took root, and it also grew up and branched out, and now while my children play in a swing attached to one of the brandies I pump water through the hole which still remains in the trunk." Joys of Pisciculture. A farmer in the western part of this county built a dam across a creek flow ing through his land and made a lake of a piece of Jow ground. One day last fall, while 6kirting this lake, he came across a man who was seated on a log with three fish lines out* and he haiied him with: "Hello, stranger, what are you do ing ?" "Fishing," was the brusque reply. "What for?" "For fish." '"Get auy lites ?" "Not a one." "Do you know that HP'S lake belongs to me 9" "Yes." "And did anybody tell you that I went to petroit and bought twenty four bull-heads, and that all but one died on the way up here ?" "Yes." "Then you know that there '.is only one solitary fish in this pond ?" "I do mister, and I'm going to have him before night if the pond doesn't fret za over and cyclones keep away.— D etroit free Press. —First-class job work done at the JOURNAL office.
