LUCY I.AKCOM. What shall I do, my Lord, my God, To make my life worth more to thee? Within my heart, through earth abroad, Deep voices stir and summon me. Through strange conhwvwi of the times I hear thy heck oniric call resound ; There is a pathway more sublime Than yet my laggard feet have found. My coward heart, my flagging feet, They hold me in bewildering gloom ; Come thou my stumbling steps to meet, And lift me into larger room. The dearest voice may lead astrav ; Speak thou ! .Thy word my guide shall be, 0, not from life and men away, But through them, with them, up to thee. It is not much these hands can do ; Keep thou my spirit close to thine, Till every thought thy love throbs through, And all my words breathe truth divine. With souls that seek thy pure abode, Let. my unfaltering soul aspire ; Make me a radiance on the road, A bearer of thy sacred fire ! A Financial Transaction. Washington Post. "Say, mister." said a hoy who had just overtaken a market-wagon after pursuing it for four or five hlocks, "do you wanter know who hit you in the neck with that hard snow-hall?" "You het I do," replied the man, slackening speed: "Will ye gimme a quarter ef I ketch him and bring him here?" "Yes." "Gimme fifty cents?" "Yes," said the driver, lifting his whip from the socket : "but I won't give you any more'n that." "Well, git the money ready." 'JYou haven't got the hoy that threw the snow-ball yet." "Yes, I have. That boy is me Dad's sick, and me and mother can't git work. The twins is too little ter earn anything, an' if I don't hustle there won't be any Christmas-tree at our house.

Perhaps there is nothing under which men wince and fret more than the restraints and restrictions which the circumstances of life force upon them. And yet, humanely speaking, there is no greater helper, no truer guide, than external restriction. Every one knows that it is comparatively easy to act the gentleman in a society vhere the forms of etiquette are rigidly observed, but it is not easy to come up to the same requirement in a society where freedom is the rule and where rules are free. A newly employed street-car driver has no difiicultv in finding the route over which he is to direct his horses. He cannot drive off the track without being jolted into the consciousness of his own error. But a ride across a trackless prairie, while it leaves the rider free from the restraints of the rail correspondingly opens to him the danger of going astray. Many a young man desires to leave his present employment that he may be "his own master." But no one is competent to master himself until lie knows how to impose restrictions upon himself as the servant of that master ; nor will lie be competent to serve and accept the res trictions which it would profit him to receive from himself as the master of that servant.

C, THURSDAY, A GREAT PHYSICIAN Oil DEATH. Sir Andrew Clark's Secret cf Health Tennyson's Deathbed. From nn Interview Review. in Westminster ' Keep my name out and then tell the world what 1 tell you, as far as words can tell such thing-, of that glorious deathbed down on the Surrey hills," and then, with glowing emotion, n ' voice mai rose aim anu nr rrrour i iilL-t oriel n -r A. 1 1 C ty'rne of the last watch by the bed side of the poet. "I have stood by the bedsides of thousands of fellow creatures," he said "and have seen very grand and solemn death bed scenes, but never, nover one like that from which I have just come from." Sir Andrew, when lie grew animated, had a strange magnetic power over his hearers I have heard others, students, medical men and private friends of his often observe this and I sat in spell bound silence as lie told of the glorious day which, in the midst of the autumn storms and ra in r dawned over the world as the poet lay on his deathbed. One sentence I remember of the de scription which he then gave me. "The distant hills, shrouded in mists of perfect white, could be seen through the oriel window of the room where Tennyson lay like a piece of breathing marble." He went on to describe the night Hooded with moonlight, the perfect stillness, the dj-ing man's request for his Shakespeare, and, "after that the dark," and then he rose again and walked up and down the room. I also rose to go. "Sit still !" he thundered suddenly. "Shall I tell you w hy Tennyson's death was so peaceful? This not to be put into the papers to-day. Probably - it would not interest them to-day. But the secret is this : He lived a quiet, laborious, simple life. It is a secret which few men learn in time to profit by it. I was his friend before I was his physician. Metaphysics drew us to gether. Gladstone, too, is deeply inter ested in that subject, and we all three agreed in our taste for a simple life, and a life of work. "Half the disease of the generation is due to people's idleness.

But no, It must be Sir Andrew7, the grumpy Scot, and Sir Andrew prescribes long walks and less rich food, and regular meals and early hours.

The statis tics of criminals in this country show that those under twenty, and I am sorry to ray sometimes even under that age, have been largely given to the reading of pernicious literature, espe cially "tUtne novels " By all means encourage your children to read and know what they read. Take the pains to get good books and papers for them and they are to be had in great abun dance. Some of the best minds in the world have written for the young, and you can get books of adventure, of travel, of science, of religion, which are adapted to their age, and will in tensely interest their minds and do their hearts good. If possible, control and direct the reading of your children, if you would have them to grow up virtuous and useful men and women. To Find Anyone's Age. Xew York Press. You can find the age of any person and the month in which he was born by a queer tr ick that was well known by our fathers and mothers in the days w hen they went to the old log cabin school-house and spent their mornings in teliing riddles and playing all sorts of practical jokes. Ask the person whose age you are to tell to take the number of the month in which he was born and multiply it by two. January is counted as number one, February as number two, and so through the year. To this product he must add five, and then multiply the amount by fifty. To this last number he must add his present ;;go, and from the sum subtract the number of days there are in a year, or 365. All the work up :o this point must be done by the lsetvori without letiir.g anyene see hi.-; figures ; hm now you ask him to tell you what number he has found, and to that number you add 115. The result obtained by this last op eration contains the information want ed. Point off two figures on the right, and the number will be the age sought ; while the number on the left of the point will give the month in which the person was born. This trick never fails. About Negro Schools. Exchange. There are 25,530 negi-o schools now in the South, 2,250.000 negros have learned to read, and most of them to write. In the colored schools are 23S, 000 pupils and 20,000 negro teachers. There -are 150 schools for advanced ed ucation, and 7 colleges administered by negro presidents and faculties, and of these presidents three were formerly slaves. There are 154 negro editors, 250 lawers, 740 physicians, and there are now educating themselves in Euro pean universities. 247 negros from the South. In 18S9 Bishop Atticus G. Ilaygood published a paper in Harper's Magazine, in which it was demonstra ted that up to that time the entire North had given $15,767,747 to this ob ject, while the outh, by State Govern ments had given $37,377,678.24. While the taxes paid by the black men have not been more that two-tenths of the whole amount of the school fund, he has received about a third and in some States nearly one-half of the entire school tax.

An inspector from this depart ment was sent with Sam Moy to Hose hill and Craceland cemeteries, where the dead men now rest, to see that the exhuming process was done according to law. As soon as the weather permits the work will be carried on in earnest and the Chinese bones will be pre tared for their final grave. The Chinese custom is to take up the dead after they have been burled six years or more and send them to their friends in China, w here once eve ry year a celebration in memory of them takes place. On that occasion the graves are decorated with flowers, and the dead re ceive offerings of roasted - hk-t-en, w hich however, is afterward.- eaten by the liv ing with many wishes that the departed could be there to enjoy it with them. Bodies have been exhumed a San Francisco, Portland, and other place-sin America and sent across the oct an, but the ceremony has never been performed in Chicago. The mortal remains of nearly 100 subjects of the Emperor and Son of the Sun rest in Rosehill Graceland cemeterie Some of :!;,-. 0 have been under the ground longer than J the requisite period of six ear- and their bones are to de disinterred, care- fully sealed in tin boxes, and shipped to the land of their nativity, where Vol- j a:ive.s will receive and care for them ever atterv.ards. The work will be carried on under di rection of an official from San Francis co, known as the Chinese Coroner. His name is Crin Joy Poo. The Chine.-e quarter is greatly inter ested in the undertaking, chiefly lo calise the custom has never been put into effect here, and the strange rites celebrated in connected therew ith nr.'jui'.V isp some diversion in flip Chinese f whosp monotonous routine of dailv e. V. ence on south Clark stieet makes a little variety welcome. The money for exen ses is all collected, the tin boxes and heavy wooden-cases have leen made, the undertaker is here, and everything is in readiness. To an American the ceremonies will be novel and interesting. Before a grave is oened four lighted candies will be placed, two at the head and two at the foot, and kept burning until the bones of the dead have !een taken out. The undertaker, standing at the head, ! will recite a few incantations and er-! form a short religious service. He will be dressed in the robes of his office which are desc-riled as leing gorgeous in gold trimmings and embroidery. After the bones have leen lifted from the grave they will be dipped into a kettle or jar of loilLig oil, made of aro matic herbs and roots and then care fully wijed off with soft cotton clothes and dried. It is claimed that the hot oil soaks into the skeletons and pre serves them so that they will last thous ands of years. Dr. Gee Wo Chan, who SUBSCRIPTION PRICE Si oo. NO. 8.

It strike- u as bpiiu: b:ii judgment for a man to tent land year afu-r pnr when land is aseheapas it in the South. In a few years his rents would pay for a home, that is if he makes any kind of crops and is a farmer. One tronl.Ip we apprehend is, that many of our tenant farmers do not think they can get along with less than two or three bundled acres, when really they would be better off with forty. Any man with forty acres of land can make a good supnort for his family, that is to say, if lie woidd make it oh a larp-r farm. A man had better have ten acres which lie can call his own than to rent. When the land is his, he will take an interest in improving it, ! cause he will feel that what he put on it is his. If he plant a tree, itnproe his house or add any convenience, he feels it is f r tho use and benefit of himself and faniilv llmself and family. He h:is the jK'cu- j ,.;ivin Mitb-, Mimt-. we'iiey, binur iar feeling of j.roj.rietorship bringing l'"" :r .'iU.'u li a sense of gratification which the man who never owned a home has neer realized. We do not ine in to adise any one to buy on a credit a large farm which he lias not the capital to properly work at:d which he can never pay for, but start with a fmall 1 I tract, if only ten acres and add to it a- ids mean-may enable him.
