THE GA THAT NEVER DIE
The pure, the bright; the beautlittl.
That stirred nurhearts In youth,
The Impute to a vardleas prayer,
The dream of-love and truth ;
The loughigs after somethings lost,
The spirit'., yearning cry,
The striving after better hopes—
, These thin,' can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother In his need,
The kindly word in grief's dark hOor
That proves a friend indeed—
The plea for mercy, softly breathed
When Justice threatens high,
The sorrow of a contrite teart
These things can never die.
The memory of a clasping land,
The pressureof a kiss,
And all the [riffles, sweet an, fleet,
That made up love's first bliss ;
If with a firm unchanging huth
And holy trust and high,
Those hands have clasped, those lips have me
These things shall, never die,
The cruel and the bitter word.
That wounded as It fell
The chilling want of sympatil),
We feel but never tell;
The hard repulse that chills the heal t
Whose hopes were bounding high.
In au unfatleil record kept—
These things shall never die.
Let nothing lass; for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not a chance to waken lose ;
Be firm. and Just, and true;
shall the light that cannot fade
Leam on thee front on high.
And angel voices say to thee:
"The•se things shall never die.”
FOB THE LITTLE FOLI&N
C 4 PALI.S OF PIRF.
The prizes at Enderby, were given either
hi books or money, whichever the winner
preferred. The presentation was not a
public ceremony. So when the doctor had
read off the names of the successful can
didates, the audience gave the usual
rounds of applause, and the boys in the
galleries stamped till the old church shook,
and clapped till their hands nearly blister
ed. Then the Boston band struck up
"Home, Sweet in such au entic
ing way that every one set out for their
sweet home as fast as possible, and in ten
minutes the church was silent and desert
ed.
The last notes of the band had died
away, the mnsicians were bagging their
instruments and buttoning up their over
coats, the sexton was shuffling softly
around in his slippers, putting out the
lights, the doctor and the gentlemen of
the committee were waiting on the plat
form, and a dozen or more of us boys were
waiting in the porch to see the last of the
evening. The sexton tapped Harry .
Stearnes on the shoulder. The sexton was
a small man, seedy and solemn. We used
to sxpend a vast amount of small wit
upon him. lie was known familiarly in
those (lays as "Old Headstones," "Old
Crossbones," "Old Dust and Dust."
"Young gentleman," said he, in a
SePnialral Sri if hn vans sum
moning the boy to attend his own funeral;
"young gentleman, you are wanted by the
gentlemen upon the platform."
"You will wait for me, won't you,
boys'" said Harry, turning to go.
"Hurry up thou," cried Max., shuffling
off a small breakdown, to keep his feet
warm. "It is cold out hero. Short and
sweet is your music, old boy. It would
not take me long to accept thirty dollars
and complimentary remarks from His.
Reverence the Doctor and the Lord High
Nabobs or Committee meu."
"0, but wouldn't Grove Vorse like to
be standing in his shoes now?" said I,
peering in at the open door, and watching
Harry mount the rickety steps and shake
hands with the gentlemen."
"Yes, BW .. said Max, emphatically.
"Vorse would give all the double-refined
patent leathers of a life time, to stand in
'those country-made cowhides these five
minutes. By the wa), Grove slipped off
quite small aud still at the last. didn't
he?"
"I suppose ho is disappointed; every
body thought he would get the prize, and
told him so. lam sorry for him," said I.
"Wed, lam not. If Grove horse feels
badly, he must do his own Aeping, with
out any assistance from me. I couldn't
start my eye pumps on his account, though
I might work off a few salt drops for a
fellow who finds his good luck too much
for him."
Max finished this remark with a wink
and nod at Harry, who had joined us, with
a suspicious moisture in his bright eyes
and quiver about his mouth, for the doc
tor's hearty words of cheer and encourage
ment had been the last drop in his own
full heart. He stepped past us into the
open air, straightened himself up, drew a
breath, and took one quick look around
on the earth, white with moonlight, and
up at the sky, glittering with stars. •
"I suppose you are taking a look at your
real estate, Stearpes," said Max. "Own
up, now; don't you feel as if you owned
alI of this world, and a few town lots In
the moon?"
Harry laughed. 31ax was not far out
of the way. A. boy of sixteen who has
won the first prize in his school, who has
thirty dollars tingling in his pocket, and
the good wishes of a hundred friend.' ting
ling in his heart, comes as near owning
the world as he ever will, if he lives to be
a hundred, and counts his millions.
The triumphs of school life. Do ,they,
seem to you poor and small, you toilers in
gar noonday of life t I fear it is because
your eyes are,old and weary,in pursuit of
fame.or wealth. It seems to me there is
a freshness and ezliiliration of hope about
the *inning and wearing of those early
&Mon, that never attends the prouder
triumphs of mature life. It does very
well for me to dwell fondly on the delights
of school honors, for I never toook a prig*
—tot one; but then I have been well se
quainted With some boys who did, and
sympathized largely with them, and that
is the way I know•about it.

"That is ohlat it is, though," answered
Barry. "That is the outside passage. I '
I climbed out of the window, slid down the
rope, and eloped with myself—no bones
I broken nor brains split. So help me
gather in the dints and 'set up housekeep•
ing again. Tho t h ingiiiiiive had a good
airing, anyway." •
"I should think they had—they are air
ed like a mainmast in a northeaster."
We parried the bed up stairs. The door
was Locked—no mistake about it—aad the
key was on the outside. The room was
dismal as a den; a raw gust of wind came
whirling in at the open window; a cracked
panel and the marks of desperate kicking
were on the door. We hauled in the bed
clothes, untied the hard knots, and
straightened matters in boy tashfon, and
soon were cosy enough, with a newly
kindled tire and a good light.
"Now I want to know who locked that
doorr cried Max. "It's clear nonsense
about It locking itself. Iron bolts don't
take nervous starts, and lock and unlock
thembeives. Somebody followed you up
here. Somebody turned that key; and
somebody is a 'mean sneak. And lam
very certain that I know who that some-.
body is. If you will give me leave, I will
go straight to his room now, accuse him
of it, and some him into owning up, and
then we will set to and drub him till he
howls for mercy."
"You don't know anything for Certain,"
said limy; "and if you did, where's the
fun'. in drubbing the fellow! Ile has done
no harm."
"-No thanks to him that he did not; he
meant to cheat you out of that prize, and
I am load for rengegnce on such a sneak.
Let's tell the doctor; he will soon ferret it
out, and show up this fancy turnkey of
ours," cried I.
But Harry would hear nothing of the
sort. Whatever his own suspicions may
have been, he kept them to himself; and
did not encourage talk about the affair;
and as we all started for home in two
days, the nine days' wonder died out be
fore its time; and by the'next winter, the
story that some one had at some time or
other slid down from the third-story win
dow by a bedclothes rope, had become
quite traditionary, and was handed down
to the new scholars as a deed of past ages.
Most of our old boys wereback at the
Enderby the next year. A little taller an d
broader we found ourselves. We had
gained about a year's allowance of the
-width and wisdom" Mr. Weller speaks of.
But we were much the same boys as ever.
There was Harington Stearns, his line
face browned and his muscles hardened by
Lis summer's work in the open air, but
the same earnest, manly fellow, generous,
honest. and purposeful as ever. Max
Foster, too, with his easy drollery and his
hearty good companionship; and Grosve-
nor Vorse, with his pride and bitterness.
Vorse had the most pride and the mean
est kind of pride of any boy I every knew.
All the boys said he was pround, and they
ought to know. Boys in general are a
democratic race, and they rate a fellow
pretty fairly by what he is, what he knows,
what he can do, tnd his general way of
carrying himself. 7 They are quick to feel
the Libre or true moodiness, or to &toot
the want of it in their companions or mas-
tent. The judgment of one's schoolmates
is unusually a fair and honest one. If you
are an unpopular girl or boy in school,
look to it; for, ten to one, there is some
just cause for it in your own character or
I=
I never knew what Grose Vorse was
proud of. Certainly he was a great sham
at lessons, and a great shirk at all games
involving skill and courage; but he had a
share of good looks, and genteel air of
birth and breeding that he valued highly.
There was money in the family, too; his
father drove fast horses, and his mother
wore diamonds; and, besides this, the
Vorses were an old family, and Grove, I
think, cherished an idea that the, legen
dary glories of all the dead-and-busied
Vorses hovered like a halo about the head
of their last decendant. Perhaps they
did. lam not a judge of haloes. I never
wore one myself, nor did any of my rela
tions. But I have seen them in pictures,
and can't help thinking that it would be a
pleasant thing if one could be surrounded
by a warm and luminous atmosphere,
quite impenetrable by the common ills of
humanity. However, poor Grove's halo
(if be had one) was of no special service
to him in the way of protection, and so it
happened that an ugly, malignant disease
that was stalking silently and invisibly
through the land, walked up the dormi
tory stairs and straight into his room, and
singled him out as a victim.
one morning in January, shortly after
the Christmas vacation, Grove Vorse was
absent from chapel at morning prayers,
and again at eleven o'clock, missing Greek
recitation. The master stopped calling
the roll and looked around the room.
"Does any one know abo(!.t Mr. Vorses?"
There was no answer.
"Where does Mr. Vorse room t" be
asked.
"In the south dormitory, sir, next door
to me," spoke up Harry Stearns;
"Have you seen him to-day ?"
"No, sir."
"Please go to his room, after recitation,
and see why he is absent from school ex
ercises."
Grove Vona was not 4 soolat;le fellow
for the most part he preferred his own
gracious compiny to that of any one else,
and no one begrudged him the privilege.
So he roomed alone, in what was milled
the tower room, separated from the others
by a short flight of stairs 'and a Mil:L—

and he will make you-a well roan In less

There is an old proverb, "If you want.'
anything done right, do it yourself.," I
Harry acted up to the oki saw; he did
not stop to consult anyone. or to send any
one else—he wenthiniseM for the physician.
The doctor had a grave and anxious I
face, as he examined his patient; a pro
fissional scowl gatherered on his brow.
"You are young Wearers, I believe?"
he said, at last, turning to Harry.
"yes, sir."
"Is this your morn, or have you been in
here long, and over the patient since be
was sick ?"
"I was sent to see why he was absent
from Greek, and found him so. I've been
here a couple of hours, and nobody else
has been in the mom."
"Well, nobody had better be in here. I
judge by your looks that you have sense
and self-control, Mr. Stearns, so I will
tell you the truth. Unless I am greatly
mistaken, this is a case of small poi."
Harry turned white about the mouth,
as he heard the last word, but he did not
flinch nor tremble. He looked at the old
doctor steadily, and balanced the chances
of the case, and then said, "If it is that,
then I have probably taken the disease."
"I am afraid so. The air is bad. Yon
have been here, you say, two hours; have
stood over him, handled him, taken his
breath ?" said the doctor.
"Y es,
"Then you are just as thoroughly ex
posed to the disease as if you had been
with him for days. You must see no
other student'. Remain in this room. In
a few hours his symptoms will be more
decided, and if it turns out as I expect, I
must communicate the case to the school
authorities, and take measures to prevent
the disease spreading."
In the days when I was a boy, the small
pox evue much more dreaded than now.
Exposure to It meant death, or a scarred
and changed Laos for life. It was a terri
ble thing to be shut up with a iinutll pox
Patient, as Harry Stearns" was, during the
solitary hours that followed the doctor's
visit. It was a terrible thing to face the
near probabilities of loathsome disease
and death.
The afternoon and evening wore slowly
away. The doctor made two short visits,
and his fears were confirmed. The school
authorities were in great panic. The
boys themselves knew nothing about it.
It was given out that Vorse was very sick
and must be kept quiet, and no one was
to go near the room, while Stearns was
to watch with him.
An hour past midnight, poor Grosvenor
Verse, too ill to care whether he lived or I
died, was carried silently down the stairs,
placed in a close carriage, and taken to a
deserted house, two miles from town, and
Harry Stearns was sent with him.
The true state of the case was known to
everybody the next morning, and a great
panic prevailed; but the usual precautions
were taken to prevent contagion, and no
other cases appeared.
But for the two boys quarantined in the
lonely house, there were long and terrible
weeks of suffering and dread. I used to I
go each day to a hill in sight of the house,
and wave my handkerchief to poor Harry,
and I instituted a one-sided correeirsed
ence with him, sending letters daily by the
doctor, but never getting any answers.
The doctor went there two and three times
a day, I remember, and a nurse bad been
hired to attend the patienta. This man i
had had the small pox, and was not afraid
of it, which was his only qualification for
a, nurse. He was ignorant and stupid,
and kept himself so muddled with beer
that he could not tell the time of day or
the doses of medicine.
Grove's father and mother came to En
derby and took lodgings there, and all
such comfort and sympathy as could be
bought with money and transferred
through two miles of space, they freely
rendered, and waylaid the doctor contin
nally, and spent money freely. Two or
three times each day, when Grove was at
the worst, poor Mrs. Vona used to drive
out to within sight of the house and gaze
at it througiler uncontrollable tears, as
if it was the burial place other boy.
But love nor money nor tears nor skill,
could scatter the shadow of death that
hung over the lonely house. The terrible
spectre of disease held the boy in its clutch;
it wrung out his strength; it sent burning
fire into his veins; it covered his fair form
with loathsomeness. Night and day the
spectre stood over him with contagious
breath, crying, "Give! give! give! Give
me your strength! give me your grace and
beauty! give me your life!"
But another stood there. 0 brave heart
and true! Closer than a brother, nearer
than father or mother, Harry Stearns
stood by his comrade and fought disease
against hope. Night after night, while
the recreant attendant lay swing heavily
in his drunken sleep, Harry watched the
face of the clock, and with unfailing
promptne's with most vigilant care, he
followed out the directions of the doctor.

Wasn't worth raving—that's the fir.ct;"

"Nonsense." returned the other. "It
was not your time to die."
"Well, yon kept it from being my time.
If I had been left to that half-tipsy nurse,
I should have beendead, and huddled in

standing here to-night, well and string,

Don't interrupt me! I must have my say
out. It has been on my tongue a thou
sand times, since we have been shut up
together; the last hour hls come now, and
I must now nay it. I did you 'a groat
wrong, once; at least I tried to—l meant
to. You see I have been selfish and proud
all my life. I have always wanted the
best things for myself, and I have hated
everybody who kept me from getting
them. 80, you know the night of the
prize speaking—you know what happened
to you that night--a fellow could not well
forget it. It was I who locked your door
that evening. I' followed you when you
went to your room, and did it. I meant to
cheat you out of the prize. I meant to get
it by fair means or foul. But, thinking
of it now, I despise myself for such a mean
act. Will you—"
"Yes, I will; of course I will," inter
rupted Harry; "only don't say any More.
There is no sense in going down inWich
depths of dust and ashes. I shall — "pet
think any more about it, and don't ion.
I am glad you have owned it up, because
it was the right thing for you to do; but,
to tell the truth, it is no great news to me.
I was quite certain it was you all the
time; for that night I picked up a glove of
yours when I was going back from the
dormitory to the church. You wore both
gloves when I lift you in the church porch,
and only one when I saw you afterward.
I had my own thoughts about it, but I
never said anything then, and now it is all
fair and square. Give me your hand."
The boys grasped hands, and they stood
silent a moment, then Grove said, with an
effort, "Harry, I believe this sickness has
been the best thing that ever happened to
me; nothing but this struggle for life that
we have been through together could have
taught me how mean and contemptible
my life ha, been. You saved my life,
Harry, and itiy life is yours. Aa long as I
live I will serve you at need and love you."
"I'll be glad of your love, always,
Grove, you know; and as for ierrice, I'd
ask anything of you I wanted, and you
could render." Harry paused a moment
here, then went on. "And, I take it, we
are coming to the grand secret of all right
living, when we can hold our lives as not
our own—u redeemed, or held in trust for
the good of men and the glory of God."

Tux WomPut. LAST PERIOD OF IBA
Sums OF Psais.—An Englishman writ
ing from the French Capital, thus pictures
the prospect:
"The remainder of , the siege will be .1
bitter time. Hitherto real privations ha c.
hardly been widely felt. Henceforth
stian Lc rudely taught tne realities of .
actual blockade. When the miseries_ be
gin in earnest they will spread like wild-T
fire through this immense population.
When once any article of food is rea,ly
wanting it becomes instantly andabisolute
ly unattainable. Dishes vanish suddenly
at an hour's notice. A week ago you
might get Liebig or pals de foie gran by
paying for it; now you might offer a gold
bracelet for it in vain. Meat must fail as
utterly in a day or two. The rations have
long since been a mere mockery. They
are not worth the trouble of scudiug for
an ounce a day-and might much more rea
sonably have been suspended altogether.
They are only kept up as pretexts to meet
an outcry of the populace. There is one
straw of comfort amid the thought of this
starvation and wretchedness, i and that is
that it will partly, perhaps, cure theyar
isiarui of their desperate gluttonous and
luxurious habits. But it is not theluxur
ions Parisians who are the real sufferer:,
as yet. For a few days these people look
all the better for a little lowering diet.
But the sick and the delicate have a ter
rible time of it. Funerals are as common
in the streets as cabs. Once attacked by
any lowering fever or disorder, there is
very little chance for you. And this mis
chief will fataly increase. As the rich
and luxurious begin to matey feel the
famine their frames will link very rapidly
under the attacks of fatigue and cold and
bad_ weather. Fortification duty on a
rainy night is not so bad afters tolerable
dinner, but when it is accompanied by I
diet of dry bread and eisordinalm, it is
sore to make its victims. There - iiill be
dreadful eights in Paris before many days
are past. Even a fortnight ahead of us
it is now impossible to answer for. We
know what quicksand we stand upon with
Belleville and La ViTette smouldering
like a volcano at our feet.. We know
what hungre will do with a Parisian pup
