Hiding Front Papa.
Papa' tost Til babyl
. Searches every where,
' TJndef chairs and tattles
. , .With the greatest caret
Pull swide the eurtaln.
Peeps behind the door!
Never ares the little heap
Curled up on the floor;
Never hoars that whisper,
"Mamma don't yon tell 1"
Nor the little lauKhter,
Muffled, like a belli
Off h scampers wildly.
Hunting here and there,
Overturning everything
" With the greatest core.
Canary had a visit,
Sitting on his perch;
Mamma's apron pocket
Suffers by the search.
"Now I am so tired
Elephant at play
That 1 must take a rest
A minute by the way;
I'll lay my weary head
On this little rug."
Under mamma's towel
Lay her durllng snug!
Then the merry scrambling
Papa lunched to see!

What I Live For.
BY U. LIXNAKL IUXKH.
I live for those who love me,
Who hearts ure kind and true;
For the heaven that smiles above me
And awaits my spirit too;
For nil human ties thut bind iu,
For the tnxk by God aligned ine,
For the bright hopes left behind mo,
And tho good that I can do.
I live to loam their story.
Who've suffered for uiy suite;
To emulate their glory.
And follow in I heir wake:
Hardu, patriots, martyrs, h.iK'iK,
The noble of nil ages,
Whose deetlri cruwil history pmjee.
And time's grutit volume uu.it.
I live to held communion
With all that is divine;
To eel there is a union
Twlxt Nature's heart and mino
To profit by affliction.
Heap truths from lleldii of fiction,
Urow wiser from cout lotion,
Aud fulfill ouch gruii J design.
I live to Imil thut season,
I3y K'ftotl mill. Is foretold.
When, mull Hhull live by reason,
And not alone by koI1;
When man to man uiiitel.
The whole worl.l shull bo Ihtblrd
An Kdeu m um of old.
I live foiMhose who love me,
For those who know me true;
For the heaven thut smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For the cause that lucks assistance.
For the wrong that needs resistance,
And the good that I can do.

depths below, which proved to be a
deep, dry Rally, tbo channul of
some mountain stream long siuce
driod up. Dropping my fowling-
piece and bidding my uoblo dog to
shift for himself, I swung myself
over tbo precipice, clinging to tbe
network of vinea which abook aud
complained boueatb my weight.
Tbe darkness bad increased with
aatonishing rapidity, and and aa
swung over that raylesa void J
fonnd it ire possible to pierce tbe
gloom. I heard tbe abort, sharp
bowl of my dog aa be darted off in
search of me i then, amid tbe rush
of tbe squall, came tbe confused
shouts of men, a straggling abot
or Iwo mingled wilh tbe crash of
tbe heavy artilery rolling in the vast
expanse above mo. Depending
principally upon tbe strength and
endurance of my arms, I carefully
and coutiously felt tuy way along
tbe verge of the precipice, wot king
in tbe direction of tbe gully, which,
oooe, sraioe 1, promised to afford me
tbe means of oecape from tbe dan
ger which euoompasaed me.
Uroud sheets of lightning lit op
with dazzling distluotnese tbe fear

dulation of tbe rooka, every crevice
and blade of grass, once when I
found a slight support for my feet,
and waa giving my aching arms a
rest, I glanced above amid tbe yel
low glare of the lightning and
bebeld tbe fierce dark-wbisktred
face of a Mexican, peering over tbe
brink, bia eyee apparently fastened
upon me aa 1 buog suspended and
flattened against tbe cliff but a few
feet below him, while tbe eleotricity
twisted and writhed like tongues of
infernal aerpeota around the mnzale
of bia carbiue. Jt waa a trying
moment, a situation well calculated
to inspire a feeling of terror ' la. tbe

when at last found myself crouchiug
on tbe muddy bottom of tbe old
mountain gorge,
Nerved on by tbe atrengtb of dos

may wonder. Completely blinded
between tbe mingled glare of tbe
lightning and the inteuse darkness
that followed each flash stumbled
on feeling that evory moment my
steps were becoming unsloadier.

With a jerk the door was thrown

most villainous aspsot j bell a

And made to loaf bis time away
Outbids tbe walls of Heaven.
Without a man to greet him, .
Without a pleasant grin;
The happiness thut he will reap
Will bealuilghty thin.
