"I pray Thee, Lord, my sonl to keep"- I have tried alas! in vain From the world's dark soil and strain Free to keep it.

WHAT HIVI'.S ARi:i'()H. What a tru man most wants of a wife is her companionship, sympathy and love. The way of life lias many dreary places in it, and man needs a companion with him. A man is sometimes overtaken with mis fortune; he meets with failure and defeat; trials and tempt.Tii.iijs beset him, and he needs one to stand by aud sympathize. He has stern battles to fight with pov eity, with enemies and with with sin, and he needs a woman that, as he puts an arm around her, feels that he has something to fight fur, will help him fight, who will put her lips to his ear and whisper wurds of counsel, and her hand to his heart and impart new inspiration. All through life through storm and sunshine, con- I flict and victory; thro' adverse and favor able winds man needs a woman's love. The hearts yearn for it. A sister's and mother's love will hardly supply the need. Yet many seek nothing futther than house work. Justly enough, half of these get nothing more. The other half, sur prised above measure, obtain more than they sought. Tbeir wives surprise them by giving tluni noble- ideas of marriage, and disclosing a treasury of courage, sympathy and love. Cleveland Sun. W HEN THE TIDE (JOES 01 T. "When the tide goes out lie will die." Wi'h the a'-'sur'.tw Wn '' I ng ex perience deatlib-ds. the nurse m sombre gray whispered these Words to one of the sufferer's friends last night in a tenement house in Seventeenth street, says a writer in the New York World. The man had been working on the dock and a crane had fallen and siruck him on tlo' id. They bore him away to his squalid home. The ci.mpany had sent a doctor and a nurse, but these were now of small avail. "It is only a legend." "Yes, it is only a legend, but wait and see." There was the faint ticking of the clock, but that was all that broke the silence of the nest few boors. The night ebbed .-lowly away. Dawn was almost breaking. "The tide it is very near the full no v," whispered the patient watcher, "l.'ouie closer if you want to see him die." And 'he little group in the room moved cl 'ser. And so, too, he died died when the tide went out at break of day, and out on the bosom of the tide had swept away toward a great, uulightod sea, a human soul. "It'sonly a legend, I know," said the nurse afterwards, "but I have bt n beside nnny deathbeds and never yet have I knowu the fancy to pi ove false. There seems to he evun in death, as in life, a strange tide, and in the case of death a tide in some strange sort hh n lcd and acting in keeping with the circle of the tide that runs out to the ocean." I.a Grippe Again. During the epidemic of La Grippe last season Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Counhs and Colds, proved to be the best remedy. Reports from the many who used it confirm this state ment. They were not only quickly re lieved, but the diseases left no bad results. We ask you to give this remedy a trial and we guarantee that, ynu will be satis lied with results or the purchase price will be refunded. It has no equal in La Grippe, or any Throat, Hiest or Lnnir Trouble. Trial bottle free at W. M. Cohen's drugstore. Largo bottles 50c , and $1. . Tell your mother you've been very good boys to-day." said a school teacher to two littlo new scholars. "()," replied Tummy, "we haven't any mother." ''Who takes care of you?" she asked. 'Father does. We've got a beautiful father, You ought to see him!" "Who takes care of you when he is at I no work: "lie takes all the caro before he goes off iu the morning, and after ho comes b ick at night, lie's a house paiutei; but there isn't very much work thi winter, so he is doing laboring till spring comes, lie leaves us a warm breakfast when he goes off; and we have bread and milk for dinner, and a good supper when he conies home. Then he tells us stories, and plays on the fife, and cun out beautiful thiugs with his j-tck-knil'e. You ought to see our father ami our home; they are both so beautiful!" Before long, the teacher did see t'uit lioino and that father. The room was a poor attL1, graced with cheap pictures, autumn leaves aud other little trifles that cost nothing. The father, who was pre paring the evening meal for his mother less boys, was at first glance, only a rough, begrimed laborer; but before the stranger had been in the place ten minutes the room became a palace; aud the niau a magician. His children had no idea they were poor; nor were they so with such a hero as this to fight their battles for them. This mau, whose grateful spirit lighted up the otherwise dark life of his children, was preaching to all about him more effectually than was any man in priestly robe in costly temple. He was a mau id' patience and submis sion to God's will, showing how to niaku home happy under the most unfavorable eircumstancies. lie was rearing his boys to be high minded citizens, to put their shoulders to burdens, rather than become burdens to society in the days that are coming. He was, as his children had said, "a beautiful father," in the highest, sense of the word. TAI.kINU HI' JESIS." A good minister of the Cospel was vis iting among the poor one winter's day in a large city in Scotland. lie climbed up into a garret at the top of a very liib house, lie had been t jhl that there was a poor old woman there whom n one seemed to know anything about. lie con tinued climbing up until he found his way into that old garret, and as he entered he looked aro'sn 1. There v;as the bed, a chair, a table, wish a candle diin!y burn ing on it, a very little fire on the heirth, and an old woman sitting by it, with a large Bible on her lap. After kindly iniuiries about her health the minister asked if she did uot feed lonely there. "No. no." was the reply. ' What do v..u do through till these long winter nights'" "Oh," she said, "1 jus' sit here wi' me light, and wi' me New Testameut on me knees, talking to Jesii-." Happy Mooslers. Win. Timiuotis.
