Loveliness Once I knew a little girl, Very plain; You might try her hair to curl, All in vain; On her ek no tint of rose Paled and blushed, or sought repose;

She was plain.

But the thoughts that through her brain Came and went, As a recompense for pain, Angels sent; So full many a bearvteous thine In her young soul blossoming, Grave content,

Every thought was fall of grace,

Pure and true ;

And in time the homely face Lovelier grew

With a heavenly radiance brig

From the soul's reflected light Shining through

ht,

So I tell you, little child, Plain

You are sure Of the loveliness of worth ; And this beauty not of earth Will endure, —St. Nicholas.

Fact and Rumor.

The powerful electric light at the Calumet and Heclea mines, can be seen | 42 miles away by vesselson Lake} Superior.

Mr. Keel, of Detroit, in writing to Castle Garden for a wife, is careful to say, “A Red hair person need not aplye.”

Paris bonnets are now provided witb a mansard, in which is stored the knot or coil into which the bair is twisted con the top of the head.

Father Ryan says free schools- were}

first established in Ireland, and then} in Italy and France, although New

England claimed that honor.

There has recently been discovered in France, a curious old manuseript of versified biography of St. Thomas of Canterbury.

The approaching close of the Mahometan thirteenth ceotury, which occurs in November, has furnished the Moslems with a pretext for predicting the end of the world at the same time.

“Why dooarsmen ‘claim foul’ so often, Mr. Spicer?” said Miss Sugar- lips, who was reading an aecount of a boat race. ‘Ll suppose they get chicken-

hearted and feather their oars,” said Seth, as he scratched his own skull thoughtfully.

At a recent conversazione at Port

Elizabeth, South Africa, a splendid dress was exhibited, which had been worn by a Qountess of Airlieat a ball given by Prince Charles Stuart in Holyrood Palace, Edinburgh, in 1745, in honor of the victory gained at Pres- ton Pans,

Professor Huxley; on hearing recent- ly that there were many new houres in the best parts of London which had no connection with the main sewer, re- marked thathe hoped the London Sanitary Protective Association might 8000 obtain power from Parliament to hang a few builders.

Pat had been engaged to kill a turtle for a neighbor, and preceeded immedi- ately to cut offits head. Pats attention was Called to the factthat the tartle still erawled about, though it had been de- eapitated, and he exclaimed :—** Shure the baste is entirely dead, only he is not yet conscious of it.

The world would be much better off, and happier, if people took more time tothink, There would be fewerJaw- suits and fewer quarrels if men and women cultivated the habits of refléct- ing and of taking time to reflect. Think before you act, and you will seldom have cause for remorse efter acting.

_ The editor of the Central Baptist hav- ing seen it stated that the Rev. Mr. Spurgeon had said he would ‘ rather be a cannibal thana close communion Baptist,” wrote to him respecting the truth of the report. Inreply,Mr. Spur- geon said,* I never thought so, and cer- tainly never saidso,I have not the slightest wish to be one or the other.”

Prof. Lewis, an English physician, stated at the International Medical Con- gress in Amsterdam, that the children of English soldiers in India who were brought up in the hills from 5,000 to 7,000 feet above the sea level were al- ways more or less unhealthy and weak In constitution, though, if they were sent to Europe in time, they might generally lay the foundations for ro- bust health.

An Iowa paper prints this somewhat comical statement :—** Mrs. M. Baker, of Lone Tree, has just finished a silk quilt which she hus been seven years in making. It has the solar system worked in completely and accurately. The lady went to Chicago to view the comet and sun spots through the tele- scope that she might be very accurate.

Then she devised a lecture in astropomy from it,”

rhe well-known writer on the Boston Herald, B. W. BALL, of Rochester, N.H., writes, June 7, 1882:

** Having suffered severely for some years with Eezema, and having failed to find relief from other remedies, I have made use, during the past three months, of AYER’S SARSAPA- RILLA, Which has effected a complete cure. I consider it a magnificent remedy for all blood diseases.”’
