WE LOVE THE ABSENT BEST-
Oh, the absent are the dearest
To a mother’s loving heart,
And 1 he depth of our affection
Js not known until we part,
M e may view our sleeping darlings
With a watchful pride and care;
And may reutlie an earnest blessing
O’er each dusky head and fair.
But if there remains a pillow
Too uncrnmpled, and too white;
And a chair a-near the bedside
Hold no garments for the riigbt—
If ive miss the shoes and stockings,
A torn jacket or a dress—
If we miss a “Good night, mother!”
And a dear one’s watrn caress—
Then our hearts yern with affection
F it tb* rover from our nest,
And we feel of all our darlings
That wo l.ve the absent best.
Ah, the absent are the dearest —
Mothers hearts will answer yes!
The dear h[m by far the
Aro the lips we cannot kiss !

To ascertain the real origin of sudden
deaths, an experiment was tried

death wro made the suject of
thorough post-mortem examination; in
these cases only two were found

A Gardener’s Secret.
Fetor Henderson, the vetcruu

before the eouveutiou of

the remarkable fact that if garden

ball of the foot at the timo the garden¬

they wifi invariably grow, drought

The winter’s frost must rend

Delays of a Restaurant Meal.

Middle gentleman, v-ry
and very sjiure, entered n stall

over the bill of fare. After bo had

dropped in and ejaculated.

The waiter departed with tho
of a funeral procession. It was then
4:37 o'clock.
At 5:59 o’clock nothing to
tho profound quiet of the stall bad
intruded itself, and after glaring at
watch the famished guest pounded
fiercely upon the wall. A moment
later tho waiter peered hesitatingly
through a narrow gap iu the door.
“I have got the patience of Mr. Job,
of tho bethel," observed the guest in a
subdued tone,’’ “but I swear upou th. s
menu that I shall not remain here au
hour longer. My house rent falls due
February 9th, and I must get there on
time or out goes the furniture on the
sidewalk. Bring on that order!”
“It will be here iu one second,” ro-
plied the waiter, with some show of
animation. “The griddle has to be
warmed up, yon know. Just be cool,
sir,’’ and he vanished. At 7:10 o'clock
he struggled into the apartment with
all the dishes ordered except the eggs.
But the Stranger had flown. On
tlie table, carefully anchored with a
salt cellar, was found the following
