And tlmo tallica then lias rolled Ills ycsirs,
And mnrkpil tliem on my brow;
Yet still I think of thee, motlici

VYhcn by thy gcntlo side, mother,
You watched my dawning youth,
And kissed mo' In your pride, mother,
.Taught me tho Wonl of Truth;
Then brightly was my soul lit up
M'lth thoughts of future Joy,
Vt'hllt your m ight fancy gatliinds wOYO
To deck thy darltny by.
I'm thinking of tho day. mother,
When, with such anxious enro,
You lifted up your heart to heaven,
Your hope, your trust was thero.
Fond memory brings tlio pat ting glance,
Whilst tears roll down my cheek,
Tint last long loving look told moro '
Than over words could speak.
I am lonely and formation, mother,

They left me when my troulilo came,
They did not love llku Iheo.
I would not have thfo know, mother,
How brightest hopes decay
Tlin tempter with his baneful cup

Anil Bhiiniolms left his vunom'd sling,
To rack with anguish wild,
Yet still, I would not havo tlico know

And left thy trusting heart to break

A rather ridiculous sceio occurred In

was an easy lint, nnd the obi gentleman
enjuyed It It appears thero are pegs
lo bang hats on in tlm churches theio.
Ho thus disposed of his head-gear on
reaching iho church, and took Ills seat
with thu coogregathm. When the ser
vlco was over lie lingered, as Is custom
ary and proper for deacons lo do. Ilo
linally inohed tho porch, and stoppul
for his lint, nnd any respcjtable clt!zcn
can lin.iglne tlio horror lie experienced
on beholding but one hat left, and Hint
n most dilapidated and scauJelotts look
ing nnicle. Ho could letl his blood
bull .ithlM tiim as he looked nt It it ml
thought of tlio inuttoti.lic.iil who owned

beaver instead. Ho said out aloud that
the owiurof that li.if wai a' inultoii
lnad, nnd ground his deacoiiism heel
Into the floor, nnd felt much lelleved by
so doing. Then 1 e tied a handkerchief
about his head bcnttso the old lintwas
much too laige for him, and lie could
not wear it, oven If llcsli and spirit had
not it vol led agiibist tho spectacle. He
told Hie 'cxlou that that hat u.u-,t li.lve
been built In a dry duck, and tho only
thing that doubled him In the nutter
was how a man with a head ot that size
gotinlo church anyway. Then hu stalk
ed majestically homeward, witli the red
handkerchief wound about 'his head,
and thu detestable hat held at arm's
length alie.id of hi in, and altogether
foi ming n fpectncle that fastened tho
astonished atiHiition of every beholder.
Arriving home, he extended thu obnux
lous article toward his wife, and waiting
nu instant for tier to lake lu the awful
enormity of tlio olfejici;, lie explosively
shouted ''Look ntthat villainous rag!"
The lady looked at it, and w.is astoti
ishciL "I don't wonder you.aro tick,"
he howled morosely; "it makes niesick
to think of tlie bullhead who owues
such a smoke-stud; palming It off on
me, anil taking my now beaver for him
self in mistake! (lie groined this out
with wiithlng sarcasm.) A prelty mis
take 1 mii't say when his miserable rag
is big enough to cover a cait, and filthy
enough to make a ciow sick. "Hut
that's your every day hat," as.erted
his wife, in still greater astonishment,
"My hat!" gasped thu amazed deacon,
blaring nt her with his eyes hair way
nut of tlnir sockets, .and then lnughltig
hysterically, ntnf shlveri-ig from head
to foot. "Certainly it is," persisted
his wife, '-and hero Is your best hat,"
taking lliat artlch fron its accustomed
place and holding it out to him. Willi-
out a word Iho tulser..b!e man snnk Into
a clnir, and after stnrlrg blankly nt
his wife for a moment, slowly said:
