Hope.
Yes, death is at tho bottom of the cup.
And every one that lives must drink it up.
And yet between the sparkle at the top
And the black lees where lurks that bitter drop
There swims enough good liquor, heaven
knows.
To ease our hearts of all our other woes.
Tho bubbles riso in sunshine at tho brim;
That drop below is very far and dim;
Tho quick fumes spread and shape us such
bright dreams
That in the glad delirium It seems
As though by some deft slight, if so wo willed.
That drop untasted might bo somehow spilled.

The Ant as an Engineer.
The pastry was delicious, and I wanted it my
self,
6o I put it in tho pantry on tho very lowest
shelf,
And to keep it from the Insects, those ants so
red uud small,
I made a river round It of molasses, best of all.
But tho enemy approached it, all as hungry as
could be,
And tho captain, with his aid-de-camp, Just
skirmished round to soo
Whether they could ford this river or should
try somG other plan,
Aud togethor with his comrades ho around the
liquid ran.
To his Joy and satisfaction, after traveling
around,
Tho place whero tho molasses was the narrow
est he found;
Then again ho reconnoitered, rushing forward
and then back.
Till he spied some loosened plaster in tho wall
around a tack.
lie divided then his forces, with a foreman for
each 6quad,
And he marshaled tho whole army and before
him each ant trod.
His directions all wcro given; to his chiefs ho
gave a call.
While ho headed tho procession as they
marched off up the wall.
Every ant then seized his plaster. Just a speck
and nothing more,
And ho climbed and tugged and carried till
he'd brought it to the shore;
Then they built their bridge. Just working for
an hour by the sky.
After which they all marched over and all fell
to eating pie.
—St. Nicholas.
The Saint and the Sinner.
Heartworu and weary tho woman sat.
Her baby sleeping across her knee,
And tho work her fingers were toiling at
Seemed a pitiful task for such as she-
Mending shoes for tho little feet
That pattered over the cabin floor.
While tho bells of tho Sabbath day rang sweet
And tho neighbors passed by tho open door.
The children played, and tho baby slept.
And the busy needle went and came.
When, lo! on the threshold stono there stept
A priestly figure and named her name:
"What shrift is this for the Sabbath day.
When bells are calling and far and near
Tho people gather to praise and pray?
Woman, why nro you toiling here?"
Like one in a dream she answered low:
"Father, my days aro workdays all.
I know not Sabbath. I dare not go
Where tho beautiful bells ring out and call.
For who would look to tho moat and drink
And tond the children and keep tho place?
I pray in silence and try to think,
For God's love can listen and give mo grace."
Tho years passed on, and with fast and prayer
The good priest climbed to the gato of rest.
And a tired woman stood waiting there,
Her workworn hands to her bosom pressed.
"0 saint thrice blessed, mount thou on high,"
He heard tho welcoming angels say.
When inoekly, gently, sho passed liira by.
Who had mended shoes on tho Srbbath day.

Tho Iload to Yesterday.
Wilt some wise man who has journeyed
Over land and over sea
To tho countries whero the rainbow
And tho glorious sunsets bo
Kindly toll a little stranger,
Who has oddly lost her way,
Whore's the road that she must travel
To return to Yesterday?
For, you sec, she's unfamiliar
With Today and cannot read
What its strange, mysterious signposta
Tell of ways and where they load,
And her heart upbraids her sorely.
Though she did not mean to stay
When sho fell asleep last evening
And abandoned Yesterday.
For alio left a deal neglected
That she really should have done.
And she fears she's lost some favors
That she fairly might have won,
So sho'd liko to turn her backward
To retrieve thorn if sho may-
Will not some one kindly tell her
Where's the road to Yesterday?
—St. Nicholas I
To My Wife.
nere, then, today, with faith as suro, j
With ardor as intense and pure,
As when amidst the rites divine
I took thy troth and plighted mine.
To thee, dear love, my second ring,
A token and a pledge I bring.
With this I wed, till death us part.
Thy riper virtues to my heart—
Thcso virtues which, before untried,
Tho wife has added to the bride—
These virtues whoso progressive claim.
Endearing wedlock's very name,
My soul enjoys, my heart approves
For conscience' sake ua well as love's.
For why? They teach mo, hour by hour, I
Honor's high thought, affection's power, j
Discretion's deed, sound judgment's sen

And teach me all things—but repentance.

To a Long Faced Query.
I'll hang deep crape on tho door of my heart ,
For tho time, if you'll have it so.
And wrap miles of band round the cap and bells
Until ev'ry inch spells woe.
Our converse will smack of tho funeral vault
And tho graveyard's grisly store,
And I'll make myself, in n solemn way,
A most infernal bore.
But whore's the use? It's a queer old world.
With not too much joy at the best.
And there's never a heart, if it is a heart.
That's the worse for a timely Jest.
Lot the last day come ere It's sin to sing
Or to Joke's a capital crime.
As for me, I'd rather live shaking with fun
Than with ague any time.

Liberty.
Tho sensual and the dark rebel in vain.
Slaves by their own compulsion. In mad game
They burst their manacles and wear the name
Of freedom graven on a heavier chain.
() Liberty! with profitless endeavor
Have I pursued thee many a weary hour.
But thou nor swellest tho victor's strain, nor
Didst breathe thy soul In forms of human
power.
Alike from all, howo'er they praise thee
(Nor prayer nor boastful names delay thee),
Alike from priestcraft's harpy minions
And factious blasphemy's obscener slaves,
Thou speedest on thy subtle pinions.
The guide of homeless winds and playmate of
the wave.
—Coleridge.
Here's to good men! Heaven make them glad!
Here's to all women—good or badl
Here's to all children— bless them all!
Here's to kind hearts, all round tho ball I

We give in full General Stewart L. Wood- ,
ford's speech at the Clover club dinner,
Waldorf hotel.
General Stewart L. Woodford began by !
saying, "We had a man from Brooklyn"— j
"Where is Brooklyn?" shouted some
body.
"A town across the river," said lie, "that
is going to incorporate New York. Wo had
a man from Brooklyn"
A voice: "You said that before. Who i
Was he?"
"I am beginning to think," he continued, j
"Philadelphians never think"
"Otherwise you would not be here," j
shouted Charley Brooke.
"I have got a prepared speech," he went
on desperately.
"Who wrote it?" shouted everybody.
General Woodford sat down.—New York

"Do you believe it a crime to steal a kiss?"
she said.
"In your case," he answered gallantly,
"it would lie grand larceny."—Truth.

Some drummers were diverting them
selves in a smoking car by repeating epi
sodes of so called "cheek." All but one
had related an instance. When he was
called upon, he drearily said:
"I don't remember anything worth tell
ing. In fact my wife has completely dazed
my memory of matters of that kind by a
fine sample of her own stock. You see,
when I got hack from my latest trip, I went
home at something after 0 o'clock in the
evening. Well, there was my house light
ed up from top story to basement, car
i ruiges were leaving the door, and affairs
| seemed to be going on inside on a grand
: scale. I let myself into the basement with
i a latchkey and walked into the dining
room. Strains of music came from thfc
I back part of the hall,Tmd the mingled
laughter and conversation indicated a host
of guests.
"Presently my wife came into the dining
room dressed like a princess. She ran up
to mo saying:
" 4 Oh, Jack! I'm so glad you've coine
home early.'
" 'So'rn I," said I. 'What's the racket

" 'Surprise party?' said she with a pout.
| 'No, indeed. It's the anniversary of my

! her own ways about doing things, catches
lier now and then.
"My dear," he said the other morning as
; lie was dressing, "I think you were right
! when you told nie last night there were
j burglars in the house."
| "Why?" she asked nervously.
"Because all the money that was in my
pockets when I went to bed is gone."
"Well," she said, with an I-told-you-so
air, "if you had been brave and got up and
shot the wretch, you would have had your
money this morning."
"Possibly, my dear, possibly," lie said
gingerly, "but 1 would have been a widow

She laughed softly then and gave half of

A Judge on the "Treadmill."
A good story is told of a judge visiting a 1
penal institution. Being practically dis
posed, the learned judge philauthropically
trusted himself on the "treadmill," desiring
the warden to start it in motion. The ma
chine was accordingly adjusted, and his
lordship commenced to lift his feet. In a
few minutes, however, the new hand had
had quite enough of it and called to be re
leased, but this was not so easy.
"Please, my lord," said the man, "you
can't get off. It's set for 20 minutes. That's
the shortest time wo can make it go."
So the judge was in durance iftitil his
"term" expired.—Tit-Bits.

FREELAND TRIBUNE, MONDAY, MAY 29, 1893.
HIS CHOICE.
Just at the time when the earth was full
of joy and it was hardest to die, for sweet
flowers were blooming, two men took the
road to heaven, a rich man and a poor one.
They had lived next door to each other on
earth, the poor man in a hut, while a sump
tuous house was the rich man's abode.
But death makes no difference, and so it
happened that they both died at the same
time, and now tliey were walking in silence
hear each other.
But the road was very steep, and the rich
man found it hard work and soon fell be
hind.
The poor man reached heaven quicker,
but he was afraid to knock, so he sat down
quietly and thought:
"Let mo wait for my neighbor; perhaps
he dares knock at the gate."
After a long time the rich man arrived,
and finding heaven closed began to shako
the gate violently, making such a noise
that Peter came running breathlessly, and
on seeing the two men said to the rich one:
"That was you, no doubt, who could not
wait. I should not think you would care
to make yourself so conspicuous, for we
have no good reports of you in.heaven. But
we will see what next. Couio both in"—
and Peter helped the poor man rise.
They found themselves in an immense
hall, with many doors and benches along
the walls.
"Sit hereand rest," said Peter, "and profit
well by my absence to decide what yo"
wish, for your wish will be fully grunted
Only consider well, for there is no chance j
later, and forget nothing before it is too
late."
When Peter returned, he asked if they
had made up their minds. The rich man
jumped up at once and said he wanted a
magnificent house, better than a king's pal
ace, and the best of foods every day —roasts
and vegetables and jams and chocolate;
then a comfortable armchair, and u beauti
ful wrapper of green satin, and the daily
paper, so ho might know the news. Peter
looked at him sadly and asked:
"And nothing else?"
"Oh, yes; I also want my cellars full o f
gold."
"Very well," and Peter opened one of the
many doors and led the rich man into just
such a palace as he had asked for, and told
him he would find all as he had wished it
to be.
And so it was.
But when year after year had passed, and
he had counted all his gold and had every
day a good dinner, and the paper had lost
its interest because it talked of people and
things that were new to him, ho found the
time long, and he yawned.
"What can I do?" ho thought. But ho
had all he had asked, for and he could have
nothing else.
And a hundred, two hundred and then a
thousand years passed. At last Peter opened
the door aguin.
"Well," said he, "how do you like it?"
Then the man became very angry. "llow
do I like it?" he said. "I do not like it at
all—l hate it! How could you have such a
miserable place in heaven?"
"In heaven?" says Peter. "But you are
in hell, for you have wished for your own
hell. Did you think we burned all sin
ners? Oh, no. Those were old times. We
now let people choose their own hell."
Terrified, the man sinks in his chair.
Oh, yes, he knows now he is in hell and
eternity before him. He turns pitifully to
Peter and says:
"And how long is eternity?"
"Without end."
He began to weep bitterly, and Peter,
feeling sorry, led him to the top of the
house, and there through a crack in the
wall he saw into heaven, but he had to
6tand on the tips of his toes and stretch his
neck.
There sat God in all his glory and all his
angels round him, and all was joy!
"Oh, how cries the poor rich
man. "But, tell me, Peter, who is the man
sitting at God's feet?"
"This is the poor man who lived near you
on earth. After I had given you time to
wish and returned to ask him what he
wanted he begged for a little bench to sit
at the feet of God, and his wish was granted,
just was granted to you."
And Peter walked noiselessly away be
fore the rich man was aware of it, for lie
was still gazing into heaven, standing pain
fully on the very tip of his toes.
And when Peter returned after a thousand
years the rich man was still looking long
ingly into heaven, forgetting all other
things and unmindful of pain or fatigue.
He did not hear Peter, who, putting his
hand on the man's shoulder, said gently:
"Come, you have stood long enough, you
are forgiven. lam to take you to heaven.
Don't you think you might have chosen it
from the beginning?"
And at last the poor and rich live again
near each other.—Translated From the Ger
man, For Boston Globe.
Practical Doll Show.
The Homoeopathic hospital in Blooms
bnry, London, will have a very singular
exhibit at the great show in Chicago. It
is a collection of dolls to illustrate nurs
ing and the advantages of various sur
gical appliances. One doll wears the
uniform of a nurse and looks very natty
in a dark bine dress and a white apron,
cuffs and collar. A collection of little
doll invalids is exhibited in tiny beds.
They are suffering from broken thighs
and other injuries and are fitted with
splints and placed in such attitudes as
the living patient would be made to as
sume. It is a novel idea, but a very prac
tical aud useful one, and the collection
will no doubt attract the attention of
the medical fraternity.—Boston Journal.
Fun In a Jar of Dried Deans.
I know of nothing that has given more
pleasure to a number of children than a
jar of mixed dried beans, from limas to
the smallest bean; a few dried peas will
help to shape and color. Empty the con
tents of the jar on the table. Each child
selects a particular bean and picks out
all of that kind. It is well to have twice
as many of the larger kinds, as they are
so easily found. Arranged flat on the
table the beans are formed into squares,
triangles, etc. The children delight in
calling the shapes by the proper names,
and it is quite as eswy for a little one to
say triangle as to call it a "box with
three corners." Placed in lines of five,
tens, etc., each, numbers are easily
learned. Also arrange the beans to form
letters and words.—Cor. New York Re
corder.
