My Little Sweetheart.

Once | had a little sweetheart In the land of the Malay Such a yellow little sweetheart ? Warm and peerless as the day Of her own dear sunny island, Keimah, in the far, far Kast, Where the mango and banana Made us many a merry feast.

Such a little copper sweetheart Was my Golu, plump and round, With her hair all blue-black streamin G'er her to the very ground. Soft and clear as dew-drop clinging ‘Lo a grass blade was her eye; For the heart below was purer ‘Than the hill stream whispering by.

cr ©

Costly robes were not for Golu ; No more raiment did she need Than the milky budding cereal fruit Or the lily of the mead ; And she was my little sweetheart Many a sunny summer day, When we ate the fragrant guavas Tn the land of the Malay,

Life was laughing then. Ah, Golu, Do you think of that old time, And of the tales I told you Of my colder western clime ? Do you think how happy were we When we sailed to strip the palm, And we made a latteen arbour Of the boat sail in the calm ?

‘They may call you semi-savage, Golu! I can not forget

How I poised my little sweetheart Like a copper statuette.

Now, my path lies through the cities, But they cannot drive away

My sweet dreains of little Golu And the lend of the Malay.

W. John Boyle O Reilly.

Gems of Thought.

All things human change. ‘The man that blushes is not quite a brute. Love will not be spurred to what it loathes.

God has commanded time to console the unhappy.

The goo. is always beautiful; the beautiful 13 not always good.

A torn jacket is. soyn mended ; but hard words bruise the heart of a child.

The company in which you improve most will be least expensive to you.

The creed of the true saiat is to make the best of life, and make the most of it.

The difference between @ rich man anda poor man is this—the former eats when he pleases, and the latter when ‘he can get it.

Aspirations after the holy—the only aspira- tion in which the haman soul can be as- sured that it will never meet with disappoint- ment.

We gain nothing with being with such as ourselves. We encourage one another in me- diocrity. I am always longing to be with men more excellent than myself.

To feel much for others, and little for our- selves ; to restrain our selfish and to indulge

fection of human nature.

We must never undervalue any person. The workman loves not that his work should be despised in his presence. Now, God is present everywhere, and every person in_ his work.

It is exceedingly deleterious to withdraw the sanction of religion from amusement, If we feel that it is all injurious we should strip the earth of its flowers and blotout its pleasant sunshine,

A man who shows no defect is a fool or a hypocrite, whom we should mistrust. There are defects so bound to fine qualities that they announce them—defects which it, is well not to correct. :

Edison at Home.

_' Of the nuniber of persons in the laboratory, | remark principally the one you may have least thought of selecting, from the informality of his appearance. The rest are but skilful as- sistants, to whom he is able to commit some experiments in their secondary stages. It is a figure of perhaps five feet nine in height, bending intently abeve some detail of work. | There is a general appearance of youth about /it, but the face, knit into anxious wrinkles, seems old. The dark hair, beginning to be touched with gray, falls over the forekead in

order. It is Edison. He has the air of a mechanic, or, more definitely, with his pecu- liar pallor, of a night-printer.. His features are large’; the brow well shaped, without un-

‘usual developments ; the eyes light gray ; the ‘nose irregular, and the mouth displaying teeth

which are, also, not altogether regular. When he looks up his attention comes ks slowly, as if it had been a long way off. But it comes back fully and cordially, and the expression of the face, now that it can be seen, is frank and A cheerful smile chases away the grave and weary look that belongs to it in its nioments of rest. He seems no longer olk. He has almost the air of a big, careless school- boy released from his tasks.

The Colorado Desert. A mght trip by rail will take you across the Colorado desert, which may be properly term- ed the Sahara of the Pacific coast. Upona clear, full moonlight night the traveller may form some idea of the sterility and loneliness of this Pacific Sahara, You pass this particu- lar section about midnight, and at the verv sterility of the scene a feeling of awe takes possession of the soul. Unlike the greater | portion of the desert, whose monotony is dis | turbed by mountains, hills, lagunes, creeks, | and a variety of animal and vegetable life, the /eye wanders inall directions and encounters | but a vast level surface of fine, white sand.

You are mn the midst of an ocean of sand; not

an elevation, hardly, nor a decline of the feeb- lest nature, presents itself; the mosquito, the _ineschal and the cacti have entirely disappear- ed, and not a bush nora blade of grass remains: no living thing, not even a bird or an insect, is to be seen. A death-like stillness seems to pervade the scene, and an awful unbroken quiet prevails. In this particular locality, itis said, rain never descends: no dew ever falls— no delicious exhaltation of the evening ever touch the fevered face of nature, which diur- nally quivers under the scorching rays of the monarch of light. It is true that a passing cloud, over-freighted with some moisture, sometimes bursts, or is dashed by a driving wind against some distant mountain top, and is made to discharge its voluminous contents with distinctive force all over the desert; but the blazing orb quickly transforms such visi- | tations into the merest evidences of perspira- | tion. and the whole surface soon after assumes | its natural state of incandescencey Cowper’s

| beautiful thought :

| **God moves in a mysterious way,” etc., | is felt with all that sublime force and ecstacy of expression which must have controlled the

gifted poet in its production, —San Francisco Bulletin.

Consider the Quéstion.

The Monetary Times says : There is a stron feeling on the part of not afew experiencec business men in Canada that the prevailing evils of compositions, and the rehabilitation ot insolvent traders, will net be done away with so long as the Insolvefit “Act is in force; that the tendency of that law, and the administra- tion of it by assignees,"is in the direction of retaining superfluous traders in business.

Un the other hand, there is a great deal to ve said in favor of the necessity for such an enactrient: which it is contended, if obeyed in the proper spirit forms a protection to gen- eral creditors against the preferred payment of any one, and should work no harm, but good to the honest trader.

A continuance of insolvencies, compromises, anid consequent reduction of profits by slaugh- tered stock, must in time bring down the strongest men we have in business. No house, or group of houses even, but must suc- cumb to the levelling force of such unfair com- petition as theirs who pay 25 cents in the dollar for their goeds. it is needful, there- fore, that every iwerchant should. give atten- tion to the causes of troubles so grave, and which are liiting but. slowly, if at all,

Another effort is likely tobe made before Resliamant arenes to have the Act tem- porarily suspended; and the suggestion has been made that such an Act should only come into force for a twelve-month every five years, in order that deserving but. unfortunate men may be relieved. Can nothing be done to: elicit mereantile opinion and to promote con- cert upon such a question? The, Boards of Trade of our cities and towns might each pre. fitably elicit the views of its members, and in- terchange their resolutions with . similar bodies in other towns. The Dominion Board of Trade might collect these and apply them. Or, would not the Chambers of Commerce, or the merchants in any town where no such, body exists, appoint delegates to attend a meeting at, say Montreal or Toronto; to. consider whether the Insolvent Actis alone to blame for the condition of things, and publicly to discuss trade subjects which, as has been said, are important enough indeed to form the sub- ject of a Parliamentary commission, We throw out these suggestions for rousing or reaching commercial opinion upon matters whereon a few think and feel deeply, but the many <lo not think at all in proportion to their moment,

- . ——— Our Anicrican cousins are never tired’ of descanting on the immensity of their institu. tions. Not long ago an Englishman travelling in the States met a Yankee, who proudly stat- ed that he knew England well. ‘1 guess,” said he, ‘‘that I saw pretty well the whole’ of your country; i was there five days last fall.” ‘‘And you saw London ?” asked the enthralled Saxon, ‘Certainly I did, sir; and it air a tar- nation big village, I do confess; but we have a fall, sir, that would sweep the whole place to Gehenna in about three minutes.” “And where is the fall ?” demanded the Erglishman, who was geographically knowing. ‘Il mean, sir, the Falls of Niagara.” ‘Then, my good man,” said the Saxon, “‘you are mistaken. All the water that goes over the American side of . the Falls would not clean the teeth of half the people in London.” And such is almost the fact, for the part of the Fall that comes over in all its force and grandeur belongs to Eng- land, and not to the States. —Hnglish paper.
