When the Flirg Scud discharoed

He had suffered as soldiers do. He hd
fought as soldiers fight. Ho had met
the soldier's fate of scars and wour.ds,
and one of the in had invallided him

It was the first time he had trod her

"1 he oaby. hs h' e a child as 1 ever

the baby was old enough to travel, tdie

The boy made no answer. Clriray

"Who is she !" asked the captain.

Then he thought of his own boy.

Then the o-ptaiii led him into

To Fossil Lane the captain went. It

wood at him for asking for tlist lady.
And now eviry clae. was lost, and the
captain, neaily be ide himself with anx.
iety, applied to the authoiities for help ;
and after many days of great unhap. i
ness he beard of Ann Golden, who dvel
in a quarter in London so low and
dangerous that all decent people shunn

"No wonder," the captain thought.
"if she lived there, that she should
have bad b'u reinittmces sent to the
potoffice, and left him to believe that
lis child was'stM in the decent home to
whieb she had at first taken him."
Almost ill with excitement, the poor
captain drove, with a policeman as pro
tector, into the maze cf hidious lanes
aud courts that led to Ana Golleu's
dwelling, and, following his conductor,
dropped into a filthy cellar, where, amid
the borrib'e leakage of draiu pipes and
almost in utter darkne.'s, sat an old
woman with a bottlo beside her, who
started up when the eaptaiu and his
guard entered wd cr'cd : "What
now? What'tthe perlice her for? Is
the boys wanted agaiu ?",
And, altered as she was with years

rage and darted towards her.
"My boy?'' he cried.
And she screamed, "It's I he captain !
"Is my boy living?'' he nsk d.
"Y' S." s id the woman, shaking a'
over; '"he's a'ive and well."
'How dare you to keep him here?'
cried the captain.
"How can 1 he'p bung poor?" whiued
the woman i "I couldn't give up the
bit you pay for him. I'm very eld ;
I'm, very ill. Don't lr bard on ifte."
"Good hea ens !'' cried the captah.
"My Ellen's baby in a place like lire !"
' He dropped his head on bis hands;
then he lilted it and clasped them.
"I'll have him away frim here now !"
he gisped. I 's over, anl lie's yonunj

Take Time to Rest.
Most men and women.niust keep
in the traces and keep pulling the
year round. All the more, it is
their duty to take things easier as
the longer days como on. The
longer rest at noon. Put on less
steam when you are at work
Snatch a Sunday now and then
from the middle of the week
You can't? You can. People fiod
time to be sick and to die. These
can just as easily find time to rest
and keep; well. All does not ue
pend on finishing that dress or fen
cmg that field; or putting up so
much fruit, or. catching so many
customers. Better that the child
ren should wear old clothes than
that their mothers should be laid
Sisitle by fever. Better that the
eom crop be a little lighter than
that there should be no one to har
vest it. Put up the store jshuttt-rs
earlier at night; prepare plainer
meals in the kitchen. Take a noon
day nap yourself, and give your
employees a chance to go fishing
of an afternoon, now and then.
That only is duty which the Lord
lays upon us, and lie is not so hard

said. "They would live together, sbar

honorab'e and creditable. Il should
be proud of him, ' and . he hoped ah,

would have Ellen's face."

been won by toys and sweetmeats, and
coming to a shop where the former were

Men and Women.
The real difference between the
mentlo calibre of the two sexr
lies probably at the very founda
tion of their natures. That thin
difference in eatlier growth
should be scarcely apparent, is only
in accordance, with the law of like
ness which pertains to all primary
conditions,whilc the differentiation
that eventually occurs.to use one
of Mr Spencer.s terms.is simply in "
obedience to that principle of di
vergence evolution, which marke
nil the aspects of nature. ....
The common assertion that men
have superior opportunity we.
believe, in the main. unfounded. -There
are higher universities for
men.biiti with the great bulk of,
mankind opportunity is more favor
able to women than men. The
ripest culture among men is often
the product of sell-teaching; and
books are as accessible to one ex .
as to the other, while with unmar
ried women, at least, the leisure for
study is more abundant than with
