A BABY'S LOOK.
Oft Y sit and try to conjura
Up the fancies,
The old memories that he
Must be heir to when he rests Lis
World-wise glances,
As he often does, on me,
Are there dim old recollections
Of another,
Of a fairer place than earth
That come trooping in upon him-—
Of the mother
Who forsook him at his birth?
Who shall fathom the deep meaning
Of the look
That is often in his eves?
Is his mind surcharged with wisdom
From some book
That he studied in the skies?
Does he have his dim old memories
Of a clime
That is fair and far away,
As I've had them, as you've had rhem
In vour time--
As we still do—who shall say?

Joshua Jebbings quitted the Ham

By the time he reached the corner of
his road his resolution was oczing fast;
there was hardly a vestige of it left

The first thing that met his too con-
scious gaze was Mrs, Potter.

the window. She was talking to a
neighbor over the wall, and her words
penetrated to his ear with bloodeurd-
