Our Lovad Ones Go.it Before.
They never quite leave us, our frlendi
who have passed
Through the shadows of dsath to the
eunlhtht above.
A thousaud swet memories are hold
ing them fast
To the planes they blessed with theli
presence and love.
The work which they left and th
books which they read
rtpealt mutely, though still with at'
lo"iienoe rare,
And the soiijjs .that they sung,
and dear words that they said,
Yet linger and sigh on the desolati
air.
And oft when alone, and as oft In tin
throng,
Or when evil allures us or sludrawetl
nigh,
A whisper ooines gently, "Nay, do not
the wrong,"
And we feel that our weakuessls pltl
ed on high.
In the dew-threaded morn and tht
opaline eve,
When the children are merry, or
crimsoned with sleep,
We are comforted, even as lonely w
grieve.
For the thought of tholr rapture .for
bid us to wesp.
W toll at our tanks In the burdei.
and heat
Of life's passionate noon. They arc
folded in peaoe.
It Is well. We rcjoioe that theii
Iwaven Is sweet,
An I one day for us the bitter will
cuose.
We to- will go ho.ne o'er the river of
re it,
As the strong and the lovely before
us have gone,
Our sun will go down In the beaut If U'
west.
To rise In the glory that circles the
throne.
Until then we are bouud by our love
and our faith
To the saints who are walking iu
Paradise fair ;
They have passed beyond sight, at
the touching of death.
Hut thny live, like ourselves, In Oud'
Infinite care.
A Talk with Jesus.
A little talk with Jesus,
How It smooths the rugged road !
How it seems to help me onward,

When my heart U crushed with sor

And my eyes with tears are dim,
Thnre Is uaught ran yield me comfort
Like a little talk with hiiu.
I tell him I am weary,
And I fuln would be at rest ;
IThat I'm daily, hourly lon.'iu-
To repose upon his breast ;
I And he answers me so sweetly,
In the tenderest tones of love,
"I uin coming soon to take thee
To my happy home above."
Lli this Is what I am wanting.
His lovely face to see ;

I know he's wanting me.

To make me all his own.

It was fire o'clock wbou Dollio

lie was ft rough looking customer
and Dollie was frightened, but she
did not show it.
'Whom do joa wish to see 1" she
asked.
"I'd like eometb iog to eat, if yon
please," answered the man in what
was evidently ft feigned voioe.
Bat in spite of that and the mnffw

sunlight that it was even more
valuable than it bad at first seemed

Dollie raised ber little band and

of the fiery compound into bis

With ft shriek of agony the man
