Childrens’ Corner.
a BOY’S REMONSTRANCE.
I am feeling very badly; everything Is going
to smash:
All the things I have believed In are going
with a crash!
The folks are growing learned, and all their
wretched lore is
Used to shake a fellow’s faith in his best
beloved stories.
The folries have been scattered, and the genii
they have gone,
There are no enchanted castles; they have
vanished, every one.
Aladdin never lived, and the dear Schehera
• zade,
Though very entertaining, was a much mis
taken lady.
Os course 1 see through Santa Claus, I had to,
long ago;
And Christmas will be going, the.next thing
that I know,
Fori heard, I was n’t listening—l heard the,
parson say,
He had really—yes had really—grave doubts
about the day.
And as for Master Washington, they say the
goose should catch it,
Who beheved a single minute In that story
of the hatchet.
They’ve given a rap at Crusoe, and dear old
Friday. Why!
We’ll all believe in Friday, we boys wfill, till
we die!
They may say it’s not “authentic,” and such
like if they dare!
When they strike a blow at Friday, they hit
us boys. So there!
And I’ve been reading in a book, writ by
some college swell,
That there never was a genuine, a real lire
William Tell!
That he wasjust a myth, or what we boys
would call a sell:
That he did n’t shoot Ute apple, nor Gesler,
not a bit—
That all the other nations have a legend Just
like It.
I think it’s little business for a college man
to fight
Against these dear old stories and send them
out of sig it.
And all the boys are Just as mad! and so the
girls are, too;
And so we called a meeting to decide what
we should do.
And we passed some resolutions, because
that is the one
And only way for meetings, when It's all
that can be done.
I send you here a list:
Resolved, that there waa a William Tell;
That by h!s bow and arrow the tyrant Gesler
fell.
Resolved, that he was not a myth, whatever
that may be—
But that he shot the apple, and Switzerland
was free.
Resolved, that Crusoe lived, and Friday, and
the goat.
Resolved, that little Georgy bls father's fruit
tree smote.
And owned up like a hero. Resolved, that
all the science
Os all the learned professors shall not shake
our firm relfance
In the parties we have mentioned; and we do
hereby make known
The fact that we boys feel that.we have some
rights of our own—
And request that In the future these rights
be let alone.
—St. Nicholas for November.
WITNESSING THE TRUTH.
The following beautiful illustration
of the simplicity and power of truth is
from the pen of S. H. Hammond, for
merly editor of the Albany State Regis
ter. He was an eye-witness of the scene
in one of the higher courts :
A little girl, nine years of age, was
offered as a witness against a prisoner
who was on trial fora felony committed
in her father’s house.
“Now, Emily,” said the counsel for
the prisoner, iqton her being offered as
a witness, “I desire to know if you un
derstand the nature of an oath?”
“I don’t know what you mean,” was
the simple answer. ,
“There, your honor,” said the counsel,
addressing the court, “is anything fur
ther necessary to demonstrate the val
idity of my objection? This witness
should be rejected. She does not com
prehend the nature of an oath.”
“Let us see,” said the judge. “Come
here, my daughter.”
Assured by the kind tone and man
ner of the judge, the child stepped to
ward him, and looked confidingly up
into his face, with a calm, clear eye,
and in a manner so artless and frank
that it went straight to the heart.
“Did you ever take an oath?” in
quired the judge. The little girl stepped
back with a look of horror; and the
red blood mantled in a blush all over
her face and neck as she answered,
“No, sir.”
Bhe thought he intended to inquire
if she had ever blasphemed.
“I do not mean that,” said the judge,
who saw her mistake. “I mean were
you ever a witness before?”
“No, sir; I never was in court be
fore,” was the answer.
He handed her the Bible open.
“Do you know that book, my daugh
ter?”
She looked at it and answered, “Yes,
sir; it is the Bible.”
“Do you ever read it?” he asked.
“Yes, sir; every evening.”
"Can you tell me what the Bible is?”
inquired the judge.
“It is the Word of the great God,”
she answered.
“Well, place your hand upon this
Bible, and listen to what I say;” and
he repeated slowly ami solemnly the
oath usually administered to witnesses.
“Now,” said the judge, “you have
sworn as a witness, will you tell me
what will befall you if you do not tell
the truth?”
“I shall be shut up in the State pris
on,” answered the child.
"Anything else?” asked the judge.
“I shall never go to heaven,” she re
plied.
“How do you know this?” asked the
judge.
The Christian Index and South-western Baptist: Thursday, November 20, 1879.
The child took the Bible, and turn
ing rapidly to the chapter containing
the commandments, pointed to the in
junction, “Thou shalt not bear false
witness against thy neighbor.” “I
learned that before I could read.”
“Has any one talked with you about
being a witness in court here against
this man?” inquired the judge.
“Yes, sir,” she replied. “My mother
heard they wanted me to be a witness,
and last night she called me to her
room, and asked me to tell her the Ten
Commandments; and then we kneeled
down together, and she prayed that I
might understand how wicked it was
to bear false witness against my neigh
bor, ai d that God would help me, a
little child, to tell the truth as it was,
before Him. And when I came up here
with father she kissed me, and told me
to remember the Ninth Commandment,
anil that God hear every word
that I said.”
“Do you believe this?” asked the
judge, while a tear glistened in his eye,
and his lip quivered with emotion.
“Yes, sir,” said the child, with a voice
and manner that showed her convic
tion of its truth was perfect.
“God bless you, my child!” said the
judge; “you have a good mother. This
witness is competent,” he continued.
“Were I on trial for my life, and inno
cent of the charge against me, I would
pray God for such witnesses. Let her
be examined.”
She told her story with the simplicity
of a child as she was, but there was a
directness about it which carried con
viction of its truth to every heart. She
was rigidly cross-examined. The coun
sel plied her with infinite and ingenious
questioning, but she varied from her
first statement in nothing. The truth as
spoken by that little child was sublime.
Falsehood and perjury had preceded
her testimony. The prisoner had in
trenched himself in lies until he deemed
himself impregnable. Witnesses had
falsified facts in his favor, and villainy
had manufactured for him a sham de
fense. But before her testimony false
hood was scattered like chaff. The
little child for whom a mother had
prayed for strength to be given her to
speak the truth as it was before God,
broke the cunning devices of matured
villainy to pieces like a potter’s vessel.
The strength that her mother prayed
for was given her, and the sublime and
terrible simplicity—terrible I mean to
the prisoner and his associates—with
which she spoke, was like a revelation
from himself.
MA Y BLOSSOM'S CA NES.
BY KATHERINE CAMERON.
New neighbors were coming to live
in the pretty cottage over the way, and
our Freddy had perched on the gate
post to oversee the moving in. Directly
he scrambled down from his observato
ry in great glee, and ran into the sitting
room calling out, “Mamma, mamma,
there’s a boy in pants—just as big as
me, I guess! Isn’t that jolly?” and off
he went in breathless haste, fearing to
lose too much of the entertainment.
In a moment he was back again with
a pitiful look in his grpat blue eyes, and
said in a low, hushed voice, “There’s
such a dear little girl, too, mamma, but
she walks on two long sticks under her
arms. When they lifted her out of the
carriage she had to wait 'till they gave
her the sticks; she can’t walk without
them. Isn’t it dreadful, mamma? isn’t
it too bad?”
This was Freddy’s first sight of a
child with crutches, and it made a deep
impression on his tender heart.
Very soon the children became play
mates, and everyday Freddy romped
and ran with the boys. They swung,
and rolled hoop, and played horse-cars
and steam-cars, and all the other merry
make-believes that shorten the longest
summer day for the little ones; but
very soon we noticed something that
caused us to wonder. It was fliis: no
game with the boys seemed to interest
Freddy for very long. After a little he
would say simply, “I am tired,” or per
haps without a word he left the little
fellows at their play, and wandered to
the porch, or the long bench under the
elm-tree, where "May Blossom” sat!
looking on with her pleasant smile;
the “sticks” he had learned to call
“canes.” and, sitting down by her side,
very often he leaned on one as they
chatted together. He had begun al
most to like May Blossom’s “canes.”
She had soft, bright brown eyes, and a
gentle, patient look on her small round
face, and, when Freddy came, had al
ways a pleasant welcome and a pretty [
Story to tell, or perhaps a nice cosy
little talk that was just as good as a
story to Fred any day. We soon saw ■
the result of these quiet talks. “Man ■ I
ma, I must say please, every time; May
Blossom always does.” "Don’t I say I
‘thank you’ to Nora now? May Bios- 1
soni says it is nice.” “May Blossom |
never tells wicked stories, and I won’t.” I
“May Blossom says it is cruel to touch !
the little blue eggs in the nest,” and so |
it fared on through the summer. Very
quietly May Blossom acquired this
strong, sweet influence over our Freddy,
till her gentle admonitions became a
power with the wayward, loving little
darling.
We, at first, had looked at her sweet j
figure thrpugh tears that dimmed our -
sight—the tears of a wordless pity.
Slowly we seemed to see her through a
clearer, truer medium. Our hearts ,
grew peaceful beneath the echoes of
words spoken long ago concerning the
“babes” to whom “the Father had re
vealed himself.” “Even so, Father, for
so it hath seemed good in thy sight.”
Truly it seemed that for every lesser
blessing withheld by her affliction, the
greater boon of a perfect content had
been given to the little one.
The parents, in their ceaseless efforts
for her relief, had found a new physi
cian. His skill was marvelous. The
feeble limbs strengthened daily, and
very soon the little girl could walk with
but one cane, and then, before very
lopg, she learned to walk slowly, unas
sisted by any support. Great was the
joy of all who knew May Blossom.
For a time she was quite rejoiced in
her new power; but soon we saw that
slie wearied, and went back often to
the house for her cane, and used it in
preference. Noticing this, one day a
friend inquired, “Why do you not
rather walk without it, dear, like other
little girls?” said May
| Blossom with a tone in her voice that
; went straight to the heart of her ques
tioner—“because I am lonely without
j my crutch.”
Could any repining at her affliction
: have had a more touching rebuke?
It was the old story of the pearl in
I the oyster, with a new rendering; the
sharp sorrow permitted to enter the
daily life. The sorrow that apparently
comes to stay, with all of its wounding
power, and yet so mercifully softened
by gentle alleviations born of itself, that
the unwelcome guest becomes the gem,
j the pearl, the blessing, of the completed
j life.
' Can the sweet lesson be too often re
peated ? Can we learn too much of the
. invisible help that comes with the visi
ble sorrow, even to these unconscious
little ones?
Nervous People should avoid the tempo
rary relief of tea and coffee. A cup of pure
Cocoa will be found nutritive as well as se
dative. Insist upon your grocer's furnish
ing Walter Baker & Co.'s preparation.
