LITTLE PEOPLE.

coCnt.iy children. Little tab violets. Born In Uie wild wood *•$.* Sweetly Illustrating

Innocent child hood Shy as the antelopeBrown mm a berryFree aw the mountain air,

Romping and merry! Blue eye* and hazel eye* Peep from the hedged, Shaded by sun-bonnets

Frayed at the edges I Up In the apple trees, deed lew of danger, Manhuod in embryo

Htares at the stranger! Out in the hilly patch, Meeklng the berries— Under the orchard tree, fe

Feasting en cherries— Tramping tlie clovtr-blooms Down 'mong the |rwwt, No voice hinder them

Dear lads and lasses! W-

To grim propriety

No interdiction: Free as the blrdllngs From city restriction Coining the purest blood—

Htrengtli'nlng each muscle— Donnl»K health's armor 'Ualnst life's coming bu&tle! Dear little Innocent*,

Oh that all little ones Had such a childhood '-i God's blue spread over them—,4 :\Ti'

God's green beneath them No sweeter heritage

if Could we bequeath them f5 •, Dickens gives this modest advice in an address to boys: "Do all the good you can, and say'notbing about it."

An Illinois minister reproved a party of lads who were playing cards in church by some timely remarks regard ing the last trump.

A little girl who bad Just undergone the unpleasant ceremony of vaccination, exclaimed: "Now I won't have to be babtized, will I?"

A shrewd little fellow, who had just begun to study Latin, astonished his master by the following translations:

Vir, a man gin, a trap Virgin, mantrap." A small Georgian was potitionlong for "our daily bread" previous to retiring, when he was interrupted by his younger brothor, who whispered, "Ask lor chk6, Johnny, ask for cake."

It was a brilliant Fond du Loo boy who, seeing a dog with a muzzle on, for the first, exclaimed: "Mama, mama, I bet tire cents the dogs are going to -wear hoopskirt* thera goes ajaog with pne on his nose."

Sweet sister—"Now don't be a cross boy—have this nice jam Ma has leit us."

Cross boy—"Hhanl Don't like It! Tain't half so good as it she bad forgotten her keys and we'd prigged it."

A little girl who had boon much exercised in mind in regard to the horrors of steam boiler explosions, has hit upon a sure plan for preventing tbem in future: to-wit: "Fill the boiler with ice-water and set it in a cool place."

It was once remarked in the hearing of a little girl of 13 that all things came by chance, and that the world, like a mushroo n, sprang up in a night. "I mshould liko to know, sir,"said the child, "where the seed came from?"

How is

it my dear?" Inquired a •ess of a little girl, "How is understantT this simple

Nchool mistress it you do not understand this simple thing?" "I don't know, indeed," she answered, with a perplexed look, "but I sometimes think I've so many things to learn, that I have no time to understand

The following colloquy appeared In a receut number of Judy :*Mnma: "Well Johnny, I shall forgive you this time, and It's vory pretty of you to write a letter to Hiiy you're sorry." Johnny: •"Yob, ma *but don't tear it up please." Mama: "Why, Johnny?" Johnny: •'Because it will do lor next time."

Ma has your tongue got legs?"

has your tongue

-'(Jot what, cylld "(Jot legs, ma,?" Certainly not, but why do you ask that silly question?" "Oh, nothing— •only I heart! pa say that'll runs from morning till night, and I was wonderjug how it could run without legs: that's all ma."

A gentlemnu in the vicinity of Philadelphia, recently lost his wito and a young iniss of s'lx who came to the funeral, mild to his little daughter about ihe same age: "Your pa will marry again, won't ho?" Oh yes!" was the reply "but not until alter tho funeral."-

Young Hopeful—"Mamma, did God tnakc all the little i*hlld.in Mamma—"Yes, uiy son why do you nsk

Young Hopeftal—"Oh, nothing much —but I was thinking If he made 'em all, how very tired he must get sometimes."

Clergyman "How many essential «iemeuts art) there in Baptism Boy: "Three."

Clergynisii: "Three! I'm surprised. Don't vim know that there are only two—tlie Word of CJodand water—"

Boy: "Why, there must be a baby, Mud isn't it an oawential element." Mr. Lincoln usod to tell a story of a lov who was ordered bv his lather to Buaroa stray urchin off the premises, lie departed

011

his mission with a

"turkey-gobbler" strut, andshortly returned VTth a discolored optic, bleeding nose and demorallxed, and told his father the "darn'd boy didn't wjare worth a ocnU"

We find in a Paris paper, this anecdote of tho meeting of two children in the Tullvriea, evidently for the purposo of tnutusl instruction. A little three yowns old: "What is the mouth lor?" "A little boy of five: "T«x eat •with." "And the eyes?" "Tosee with." ••And the uose?" "To put one's finger in."

During our late war some children who were talking of their brothers and fathers who had been captured as prisoners of war. Manr talea ot fortress and cannon were told, the speakers evidently priding themselves very much on the sufferings of their relatives, wheu a little fellow who had been silent, now spoke up: "That's nuthin' !M «aid he, "I've got an uncle in prison too, and ho ainH never been to war nuther."

VeoBTixk.—The conviction is, in the public mind as well as in the medtaal

rofessioti, that the remedies supplied the Vegetable Kingdom are more

Klngdo

more aucceeaful, 1 the cur® of disease, than mineral medicine*. Vegetine is oompooed of roota, barks and herbs. It in pleasant to take, and to perfectly safe to give to an infant. 1*» vou neoi it? Do not hesitate to try It, S'ou

PiMPL.n and brown apota on the Dm*, Eruptions, Scroftiloua, and all sorea ariainst firom Impure blood, are cured by Dr. Pieroe'a Golden Mtdical I1»soverjr. W®.

ODDS AND ENDS.

Leading article—a looomotive. Our first and last lore—self-lore. We make laws, but follow oastoms, Common sense—genlns In working dress.

A handy tone—fortune. It is not ootnuion metre. What man carries everything before him ?—The waiter.

Since Flak's death, the' Want of new slang-phrase is felt. Twelve leaves of artificial flowers hold ten grrfins of arsenic.

The loudness of the cackle is no ori terion of the size o! the egg. Some one wants to know if death's door is ppened with a skeleton key. "Cleanliness is next to godliness." If that is so, a cake of good soap must be better thaa a poor sermon.

The value of the coffee imported into this country annually is reckoned at 926,000,000.

The word 'impossible' is the mother tongue of little souls," said Lord Brougham.

It is supposed that' forfy-seven per sons die every minute of the day and night, reckoning for all parts of the world.

A Western journal announces that "Mr. Jim Clemonton, equine aductor, of Minnesota, was lately the victim of "ueck-tie sociable."

Some one says that a strong argu ment against suicide is, that it is the height of impoliteness to go anywhere until you are sent for.
