7VA' SONG. . EARL MARBLE. , f I gat at the old piano, And Mabel and Maud were tnere, And over ajrain, and over . A?Pi while they sang the air- , With an interlude like tne primus Of the sleepy, twittering birds. And while I ran my fingers o'er the yielding iv. ry keys, . Ari l the sounds were softly imngrled With the fcreath of the summer breeze, The mnlody quite o'ercsme me. And I soon was pack again, Bm.n- the steeds of fancy, . And dwelling m castles in Spam. The world no longer was prosy. But Poesy ruled and smiled, While Music's jrentle spirit : My soul for the time beguiled Till my heart forgot its b-ating. And my eyes were dim with tears. While the tones of earth seemed lost In the music from heavenly spheres. And oveT again, and over. We played and we sang the song Till the hour of the day ha 1 vanished, Though before they seemed so long. And over again, and over. We sang, till we broke the spell That settled o'er us while inging The song that we loved so well.

If we hav no more to offer than a kind word, a tender look of recognition, and a cup of cold water in Christ's name, it may prove a bright spot in some sombre life that might have been goaded to despair had we withheld the offering. Want can be more bravely borne by senstive natures than neglect, and it is the scorn and indifference of Our fellow men that make us feel more deeply and more bitterly the wbeis of poverty. ! Let us talk not of an empty purse when we can visit the poor invalid in our great cities, smooth his pillow, cool his fevered lips, bathe his burn ing brow, and tell him of another; life that will know no'pain nor weariness, no anxious vierils or h urt of a broth er's scorn.
