Ve're weary a-walking the highway of
life;
We're fretted and flustered with worry
and strife.
Let us drop by the wayside the heavy
old load.
And rest at the inn at the turn of the
road
Let us tarry a while
At the "Sign of the Smile." .
Ho, the "Sign of the Smile" is a jolly inn,
With gargoyles about it that do naught
but grin.
There's always a lnugh and a shoulder
to whack,
And an echo that ever will answer us
back
Let us tarry a while
At the "Sign of the Smile."
At the "Sign of the Smile" we will linger
long there
For the strictest of rules is the ban upon
care, .
And the guests must forget there are
such things as yeanv
And never shed any but laughter-brought
tears
Let us tarry a while
At the "Sign of the Smile." .
There'll be flagons of jollity for us to sip,
And many and many a rollicking quip,
Though the jokes may be old like the
juice of the vine,
They mellow with age to the richest of
wine
Let us tarry a while
At the "Sign of the Smile."
Let us tarry a while at the "Sign of the

Forget all our griefs in the joys that be

Then up with our loads and we'll find
they are light
If we tarry a while
At the "Sign of the Smile."

The almost heartbroken mother could
bear no more and quietly withdrew,
leaving them together.
'Tapa?"
"Yes, darling."'
"Where have you been' so long? We
have been so lonesome. It made mam
ma cry, and when I said my prayers,
mamma said if I prayed hard God
would keep you safe and bring you
home, and oh, papa, He has, He has!
You will never go away again, will
you?" And she twined her little arms
around his neck and kissed him with
childish fervor.
The strong man shook with emotion,
and a great sob burst from him as he
bowed his head upon little Marjorie's
neck and asked:
"And mamma would she wish it?"
"Oh, yes! She will not cry any more
If you stay mamma! mamma! Where
are you?"
"Here, dear," responded May, as she
entered the room.
'Tapa Is never going away again,
and we shall have him all of the time.
Oh, aren't we glad, mamma?"
May, remembering her husband's
words when he came in, looked at him
inquiringly.
"Shall! stay, May?"
"Say yes, mammaoh, say yes,
quick!" cried the child.
"Harold," she said, and her voice rang
with truth, "as my heavenly father
bears me witness, your suspicions were
most unjust unfounded. From the
day that I met you at the altar your
honor has been as dear to me as my
own, and I have been faithful to you in
thought, word and deed. I can only
answer your question by asking an
other: My husband, can you trust
me?"
"Yes, May, my own true wife. My
eyes have been opened, and I have
longed, oh, how I have longed for this
hour! Take me back to your heart,
my darling one, and let us begin agaia.
Come, May, cottie to me."
Half an hour later the young wife,
with a happy smle upon her sweet face,
pointed to little Marjorie, as she lay
sleeping In her father's arms.
"Yes," said the father as he ga2ed
upon the upturned face, "the little
peacemaker's mission is finished, and
she sleeps."

Ou this particular evening May had
put little Marjorie to bed, and then she
sat dow n, and, relaxing her self-control,
threw her arms upon the table, and,
burying her white face in them, cried
out:
"Oh, Harold, Harold, if It had not
been for your unreasonable jealousy,
we might have been so happy."
So absorbed was she that she did not
hear the ring at the door bell, nor the
footsteps In the hall.

"Harold! You here? I don't under

tone. "I am going away for a year,

I have come to make settlements for

"Hush. She must not hear.
He paused, and his glance followed
that of his wife. There, between the
parted curtains, stood a little, white-
robed figure, almost -angelic In its purl
ty. Then she sprang forward with a
glad cry of 'Tapa! Tapa! I knew It
was my papa's yolce!"
Straight Into his arms she sprang,
and was clasped close to the father's
heart

Unclaimed.
Every year there are picked up in the
gutters of London, or taken from pawn
brokers' shops, jewels amounting in
value from fifteen to twenty thousand
pounds. These are duly advertised; but
for many reasons even people who rec
ognize the description of their own
property In the advertisements do not
care to claim It, and it thus comes
about that the proportion of property
left unclaimed js a large one. It is the
rule, Indeed, that where such valu
ables have not previously been report
ed to the police by their owners as
missing they are seldom claimed after
wards. The Loudon police keep all
such property for twelve months, ad
vertising It In three dally papers dur
ing that period. If no one claims It,
and the account of the finder seems rea
sonable, it Is handed over to the latter,
the police deducting the cost of the ad
vertisements only. If a pawnbroker has
detained the article and no one claims
it, the police at the end of twelve
months give the pawnbroker a reward;
and here let it be said that these re
wards often amount In a year to a large
sum. In this latter case the article U
sold, aud the surplus money, after the
reward bus ben paid, Is handed over,
not to the police funds, as most people

Sarcasm About riie Clergy.
"Lighter Mouieut" Is the title of a
modest little book, chiefly anecdotes of
thee lergy, recently published In Lon
don by the executors of the late Bishop
Wnlshnni How. He relates a couple of
anecdotes of Archbishop Magee. When
that dignitary was Dlshop of Peter
borough he was walking with the Bish
op of Hereford by the Wye, and said:
"If you will give me your river I will
give you uiy see." There is this other
story also In Bishop How's collection:
"A lady who was a great admirer of a
certain preacher took Bishop Magee
with her to hear him. and asked hlru
afterward what lie thought of the ser
mou. 'It was very long,' the Bishop
said. 'Y'es,' said the lady, 'but there
was a saint in the pulpit.' 'Ami a mar
tyr in the pew,' rejoined the Bishop."
Dr. How had the following definition:
"Dr. B of Oswestry has three
horses, which he has named 'High
Church,' 'I)w Church' and 'Broad
Church.' The reason he gives is that
the first Is always on his knees, the sec
ond never, and as for the third you
never know what he will do next"
