Then by your side as 1 nightly kneel To the All-Father I make appeal, That lie will guide you and guard and bless, Touch you with love and usefulness, Mold you and lead you life's path along, That you grow manly and true and strong, That He may grant you a future bright, Good-night, my baby, good-night, Good-night. Sometimes in days that are yet to be, In the last hours you shall come to me, You shall stand at your life's proud prime, 1 whose head shall be touched with rime. There shall we part for the last sad time, Then, as the world recedes front view, On your dear face 1 will turn my sight, And out of death I will call to you, "Good-night, my baby, good-night.

A TOUCHING INCIDENT. 0lE HOPE. There Were Many Moist Hyes Thut Car. In An incident of a peculiarly touch ing character occurred yesterday in one of the elevated railroad trains, that brought tears to the eyes of the passengers. The train had just left One Hundred and Tweiiiy-hl'tli street when the pas sengers saw entering the car a lit tle boy about six years old, half carried by an older boy, evidently his brother. Both were well I dressed, but at first glance it was seen that the little fellow was blind. ! He had a pale, wan face, but was smiling. A quick look of sympa- ty passed over the faces of the passengers, and an old gray-haired gentleman got up and gave his seat to the two. The big "brother," who was about eleven years old, tenderly lifted up the little blind boy and placed him on his knee. "How's that?" he asked. "Nice," said the liule chap, "where's my 'monica ?" This puzzled some of the pas- i over the dead body of sengcrs, and several turned to see j whom he dearly loved, The (ireat I'usiness of Life is lo Make Preparation for the Life to Come. The i, Id kcinan who has seen more c f this life ih.m must men are ever permitted to see, cloes his must interesting life Mory with these impressive and touching words iii young men : "W hile I dare not invade the I'i'oviiiee of the ' minister 1 feel eon .;iiined to de clare that the great business of this life should be to make preparation For thai which is to come, and thai no man should be ashamed of die Gospel of Christ.
