Measuring- tlie Baby.
w( measured the riotous lby
Aeatnst tbe coUage wall
A Uv em P l 'e threshold,
An the babjv was Just as tall!
AwSwS of purple and gold,
And heart HKe a Jeweled chalice
The fragrant dew to hold.
Without, the blue-bird whittled
High up In the old roof-tree.
And to and fro at the window
The rod rose rocked her bees;
And the wee, pink fists of the baby
"W ere never a moment still.
Snatching at shine and shadow
That danced on the iattlce-stU.
Hl eyes were as wide a blue-bells
Ills mouth like a Sower unblown
Two little bare feet like funny while mice
Peeped out from his Miowy gown;
And we thought, with a thrill of rapture
That yet had a touch of pain,
When June rolls round with her roses
We'll measure the boy again.
Alt me! In a darkened chamber,
With the sunshine stmt away.
Through tears that fell like bitter rain
Wo measured the boy to-day.
And tlx little bare feet that were dimpled,
And sweet as a budding rose.
Lay side bv side together
In tin' hush or long repose.
Upmi the dainty ptliow.
White as the risen dawn.
The fair little face lay smiling,
With the light of heaven thereon
And the dear little band like rose leaves
Dropped from a rose lay still,
Kever to snatch at the sunshine
That crept to the shrouded sill.
We measured the sleeping baby.
With ribbons white as snow,
For the shining rosewood casket
That waited him below;
And out of the darkened rham ber
We went with a childless moan
To the light of the sinless augels
Uur little one had grown !
Gramhesma and her Little Heart-Leaves.
UiHter an old oak, before a little cot

As soon as she gets up in tho morning
the neeidles begin to click, the fingers
are busy making stitches, and the yarn
gets shorter as tlte stockings longer.
This work is not laid aside until late
in the evening, when she goes to bed.
Yes, if grandtnania lias no sewing to do,
then she continues to knit, whether sho
is in the garden, sitting before the door,
or taking a walk in the woods.
Oftentimes her ball falls and goes roil
ing about here and there, like a little
mouse, and when it gets all covered
with the dry leaves and mosses that will
cling to it, then it does not look very
nice.
Rut the worst of it is, if Mi-tze should
see the ball roiling, she would spring for
the little round thing that glides so
quickly about, even if she were upon
the roof of the house. She fancies it to
be a tempting mouse.
When she catches the ball she plays
with it, tosses it about hither and
thither, until the yarn gets in such a
dreadful snarl, that it gives grand
mother a great deal of trouble to disen
taugte it.
Rut for whom does grandmother knit
so much? Her little grandchildren, of
course; ami also for Iter dear daughter,
the mother of the grandchildren, who is
always busy with other work, and for
her little darlings' fattier, too.

Grandmama was seated under the old
oak with her grandchildren her little
"Heart-Leaves." They were named
Hermann ami Gertrude, but grand

would llnd beautiful toys, such as the
acorn cuius of last year, and different
kums or insects that were beautiful to
see. Among them was the "lady-bug"
and wee bit of purple spiders, that were
just as pretty as pretty could be. And
such velvety mosses were there, too! re
sembling miniature trees. Yes, itwasa
complete jiuie moss lorest.
But the moss forest was very differ
ent from the great forest, not however
because it was so much smaller, but be
cause the children could make a bed of
it under the oak and tumble about on it
asthey pleased.
There were two other persons under
the oak besides grandmother, Hermann
and Gertrude. Upon the bod of moss
sat Kicks and Lize. Nicks was a iittle
black wooden rabbit, plump as possible,
with a bright, glossy skin. Even if
he were made of wood he looked about
him with his black eyes, just as if lie
were alive, and his ears stood straight
up in the air and made him look funny
enough. He seemed to understand
everything that was going on about
him. Suppose the skin over the ears
had bit rated and showed two pointed fires,
it made no difference to him.
Nicks had just eaten his supper, and
there was some of it left. Now he must
smoke just as Hermann's father did,
when he sat before the door after tho
day's work was done.
Hermann called Nicks his son, and
Hermann's parents were Nieks' grand
parente, ami Hermann's grandmama
was little Nicks' great-grandmama.
iUis relationship could be quite easily
traced.
Nick's play-fellow was Gertmde's
pretty Use, with her stub nose. This
little nose made her somewhat resemble
Nicks, but she did not look like him in
any other respect

it was made of beads and there was no
ueu attached to it; in a word, Lize was
not a raooit, mil a uou.
These play-fellows lived very harmon
iously together, even if there were so
little resemblance in their looks. They
would ilay with cacli other by the hour
aim were never iiearu to quarrel.
It often happened that Nicks would
tread upon Lize, but she bore his treat
ment without a murmur. Gertrude
would never have allowed Hermann to

. The children often laughed richlhear
tily nl thegeuerous, stupid fellow. Thorp
wore a great many little jokes related
ofNieks and Lize, which grandmother
generally heard first, forshe always had
time to listen to them.
Herknlltingworkwflsneverlaidaside,
evon though she wa occupied with the
children. The parents had so much to
do, that they could not always be pret- j
ent when the children wished to tell
their little stories.
It was very fortunate for Hermann
nndGertrudc thatgrandmamahad come
to live with them in their forest home.
Formerly she had dwelt in the city and
taught school. Every day there came a
....i r i:4t l - ...i- j-i . i
she gave lessons,
Now she had grown feeble and could
not endure the noiseandcliattering buzz
that so many merry little birds made
when they came together. For tills rea
son she had come to live with her two lit
tle woodland songsters, Hermann and
Gertrude, who were not always as still
as mice; but there was but two of them,
and their noise did not disturb her so
much.
When grandmama and the children
sat before the door, the little ones would
repeat the verses which she had taught
them from time to time. This was al
ways a great pleasure for grandmama,
forshe had taught her grandchildren as
she had formerly her pupils. She re
lated useful things to tliem, explained
all that they could not understand, and
repeated pretty verses until they had
learned them by heart.
"You must remember," grandmother
would say, while sho embraced the chil
dren, "all that I have thought on my
little heart-leaves."
"Grandmother," asked Hermann,
looking about him thoughtfully, "why
do you always call us your little heart
leaves?" "I will explain to you why, mj dar
ling," said his grandmother, "but listen
to what I say, and you, too, pay atten
tion, Gertrude. A plant's heart-leaves
arc the youngest, smallest leaves, just
as you are tbe youngest members of our
family. If the heart-leaves drop then
all the other leaves of the plant wither,
so when you arc sick father, mother
and I am sorrowful."
"Once and awhile children have
another kind of illness, that a plant's
heart-leaves could have, if they wore
disobedient. Alas! the disobedience of
children makes the father and mother
far, far sadder. God keen you from such
sickuess, my sweet little heart-leaves."
How to Tit eat Strangers. A home
missionary in the West, wliiie address
ing a babbath School, noticed a little
girl, shabbily dressed and barefooted,
shrinking in a corner, her little sun
burnt face buried in her hauds, tho
tears trickling between her small
fingers, sobbing as if her heart would
break. Soon another little sir!, about
eleven years old, got up and went to her,
wiiispcreu Kiuuiy to uer, anil taKing nor
by tho hand, led her toward n brook.
then seated her on a log, ami kneeling
beside her, took off her ragged sun-bonnet.
Thou she dipped her hand in the
water, bathed the hot eyes autl tear-
stained face, and smoothed the tangled
hair, talking in a cheery manner all the
while.
The little one brightened up, the tears
all went, and smiles came creeping
around the rosy mouth.
The missionary stepped forward and
said: "Is that your sister, my dear?"
"No, sir," answered the noble child,
with tender, earnest eyes; "I have no
sister."
"Oil! one of tho neighbor's children."
replied the missionary, "a little school
mate, perhaps?"
"No, sir; she is a stranger. I do not
know where she came from. I never
saw her before."
"Then how came yon to take her out
and have such a care for her, if you do
not know her?"
"Because she ttws a stranger, sir, and
seemed all alone, and needed .somebody
to be kind to her."
Noble lesson will you all heed to it?
"Woman's Rights Hidiculeu. A
very popular drama for amateur actors
lias lieen "The Spirit of Seventy-six,"
which gives a ludicrous travesty of the
demands of the-slrong-miiided women,
who are supposed, in the year 1870, to
have quite got the control of things gen
erally, and to have banished the men to
the kitchen and nursery. Everybody
who hears it enjoys it, except, of course,
those who have the cause considerably
at heart. A drama of similar snirit 1ms
just been published in Calcutta, entitled
jvuium umuyomi, me uumor oi which
consists in holding up to ridicule tlie I
JJrahmo ladies of the nrosressiveseetion. '
These ladies are so far in advance of
their age that they have brazenly at-
tended their husbands to places of pub-
lie amusement, and some of them liavn 1
been known to forget so far the decency
of their sex as to sit down at the same
table and eat with their husbands and
brothers. Nay, a widow or two among

are powerful in every clime. Fond par
ents in China squeeze their daughter's
feet till the little maiden is maimed for
life, and unfit for any active occupation.
Among us, matters are carried just as
far; for we suffer our daughter's lungs
to be compressed Into the narrowest
space we cannot compress her brains;
for, if she had any, she would not sub
mit to the squeezing process and the
paler and thinner she becomes, the
greater is our complacency. She caii
not take any exercise, forit is so fatigue
ing. She cannot eat much, poor thing,
for sho lias no appetite. She can only
pick at this dish and sip of that. The

At length it is nroved that a man has
more vanity than a woman. This is the
way it come to pass. A curious investi

passed a looking-glass used as a sign on

A pleasant little incident is related of
Miss Clara Louise Kellogg, which oc-
curred while visltinc thu nritulel
Klacier in Switzerland, during her late
foreign tour. Her party encountered,
as oilier travelers do, a young Italian

for some timo his vain endeavors, and
then, rising in the carriage, she gave
one of the charming mountain jodels,
and finished oil with aspecimen of those
inimitable rills which require no patent
to render them unapproachable. In an
Instant camo hack four or five beauti

nently clear trill at t lie cud. The young
Italian doffed his hat and exclaimed!
"Ah, niadamc, could I but make an
echo like that, my fortune here would

The proprietor has taken mnrh pains to lest
the comiMirative merits of the principal Worm
Medicines of tho day, which, numerous as the
Entozoa thei -"Ives, have overspread the
land, each lming lor Itself the name of spe

many of tnem are often successful, and do great
good, were we not nssured that this combines'

have been attempted.
Tho pleasant taste and exceedingly small
quantity of this medicine required to test the
existence, of worms, or to remove every one

unaided by any other purge, together with its
certainty of cllvct, constitute It one of the most
brilliant discoveries of tbe age.

There lire Tew remedies known to the Medical
Profession which will remove the Rheumatic

powerful In depressing the system of the al

for a moment, accuse or suspect them of any
exaggeration in the statements they may
make:
