When I fall down a flight of stairs, or through a trapdoor, unawares and break a backbone or a limb, there always comes a Sunny Jim, who says, "Cheer up! It might be worse! And it will do no good tocurse." I listen to his dulcet tones, as I sort out my broken bones, and murmur softly, "Sun ny Jim, I'd like to rend you limb from limb; 1 might forget my mor tal ache, if I could burn you at the stake or poach or fry you in a pan, you dear, delightful, smiling man!" When I am feeling gay and fine, and naught of woe or pain is mine, and life seems like a morning hymn, 1 always welcome Sunny Jim. I say, "You're speaking sooth, meseems," when he says woes are idle dreams; and'when he says a cheerful face will drive all anguish from the place, I say, "Your words are good as gold; they all are pearls of price untold." We all agree with Sunny Jim, when feeling in the proper trim; when all our schemes are panning out, we say he is a fine old scout; when we have troubles laid away, and kopecks coming every day, when we have coal enough to last until the winter storms are past, when we have spuds and pork to fry, and our old goose is hanging high oh, then the words of Sun ny Jim call torth our eulogies for him. But yesterday I took my car, and headed for a burg afar. The roads were good, the water fine, and speedy was that car of mine; and all the world seemed sweet to me, until I ran against a tree. The tree refused to budge a yard, and so the car was bunged up hard. Then Sunny Jim came up the road, and laughter from his larynx flowed. He found me, seated there, a wreck; one wheel was wrapped around my neck, and portions of the steering gear were pushed into my starboard ear. "Cheer up !" he cried; "it might be worse you're not yet ready tor a nearse! Uismiss all tragic doubts and fears, and smile and sing and wag your ears. Make up your mind you have no ache, that all your anguish is a lake, just keep your lestive smile on straight, and he a sunbeam while you wait!" And 1 remarked, witn eager vim, "If I could boil you, Sunny Jim, il your remains my eyes might see, a-dangling from the gallows tree, I'd laugh to scorn the cross-cut pain that now is driv ing me insane!"

"An old man, going a lone highway, Came at the evening, cold and grey, To a chasm vast and deep and wide. The old man crossed in the twilight dim, The sullen stream had no fear for him ; But he turned when safe on the other side And built a bridge to span the tide. " 'Old man,' said a fellow pilgrim near. 'You are wasting your strength with building here; Your journey will end with the ending day, You never again will pass this way; You've crossed the chasm deep and wide, Why build you this bridge at even-tide?, "The builder lifted his old grey head 'Good friend, in the path I have come,' he said, 'There followeth after me today, A youth, whose feet must pass this way. The chasm, that has been as naught to me, To that fair-haired youth, may a pitfall be; He, too, must cross in the twilight dim Good friend, I am building this bridge for him.' " TMUARP i?1 hovsanci Strings BY DR. FRANK CRANE, OF ATLANTA, GA. The phrase I get from the most Watts: Strange that a harp of a thousand strings should keep in tune so long; referring to you and me. Considered as an instrument 'o play upon, man assumes a new, sharp interest. For man is not only a citizen and a soul, a piece of the population and a subject for the surgeon's knife and the evangelist's en! ; he is also a piano. He is an organ, a horn, a fiddle; likewise a photographic apparatus, taking the most amazing moving pictures; an electric battery; a book wherein past impressions are recorded. Hence it is more important to learn to play him than it is to learn to play "upon the harp and the passcl-tree," to use Mrs. Norrock's read ing of the Scriptures. There's many a young lady taking piano lessons who would far bet ter be putting in her time practicing how to learn to play upon the man. Not that young ladies don't play upon man as it is; only they go at it clumsily, they don't know how, and hence produce some rack ing discord. What an instrument a man is I I have climbed all around through the insides of a pipe organ and admired its maze of slats and strings and tubes; I have stood by and watched the tuner expose the entrails of the piano, criss-crossed with its myriad wires, and with its little felt thimbled fingers all in a row; but a man beats them all. Read in your anatomy about that little harp inside the ear and the tiny bones there to catch sound waves; of the blood canals irrigating the whole mechanism; and of the nerve-telegraph wires along which flash coutless messages hourly, that make the Western Union system look like child's play. And when you enter the soul-box, where pure thought and feeling are handled, you will agree that the man himself is more marvelous than anything he ever made. There are solo effects. Upon this instruments you can produce any pain, from itching to agony; any pleasure, from the mildest corn comfort to the loudest hee-haw. Orchestrally taken, what massed results can be secured I Watch the orator inflaming the passions of a crowd, Savanarola raising the Florentine to religious frenzy. Patrick Henry fusing the delegates into o flame of patriotism. What is the general, Napoleon or Frederick, but a band-master di recting his companies as if they were groups of first violins or 'cellos? And the architect; he plays upon the dead things and living workers; as he waves his baton, stones leave their quarry and trees their native woods; hordes of bricklayers, plasterers, carpenters, teamsters, artists and artisans come trooping; till at last the cathedral rises, the long sweet Symphony Of Centuries. No wonder "v-helling called architecture "frozen music." What fingers play me! Love, hate, ambition, envy, aspiration, des pair ! God Himself does not disdain to make on me his Celestial melodies. Let me, therefore, be in tunc. Lvil spirits within and without are eager to strike forth from my.strings their raucous cacophonies. An gels of grace touch me to their perfect strains. Let me, therefore, be so in tune that 1 may catch the humbler songs of things, so that To me the meanest flower that blows can give Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears; and that I may echo back something of that starry strain above, where Not the smallest orb that thou beholdest But in his motion like an angel sings Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubims f AND HE KNEW IT. The Professor-I'm afraid, my dear young lady, that you find sta tistics very dry things. The Dear Young Lady Not al ways.

Y. il industrious nf hymn-smiths, Isaac When a man says a bright thing he nearly always forgets the quo tation marks. A few ounces of horse sense would render some people almost intelligent.

SING YOUR WAY. , The Birds Sleep Sweeter By Sine- ! i"K I I We can sing away our cares 'easier than we cm reason them away. The lirds .ire the earlie-d lo sing in ilic morning, the birds ! are more without care than any thing else I know ol. Sing in the levelling. Singing is the Instilling i that robins do. When they have done iheir daily work, when they have llown their last Might, and picked up their last morsel of food, and cleaned their bills on a napkin of a hough, then on a top twig they sing one song of praise. I know they sleep sweeter for it. Oh, that we might sing evening and morning, and let song touch song all the way through! Oh. that we could put songs under our burden! Oh, that we could extract i!w s?nse of sorrow by song! Then sad things would not poison so much. Sing in the house, teach your chil dren losing. When troubles come, go at them with song. When griefs arise, sing them down. Lift the voice of praise against cares. Praise God by singing; that will lift you above the trials of every sort. Attempt it. They sing in Heaven, and among God's people on earth song is the appropriate language of Christian feeling. Henry Ward Beecher.
