LIGHTENING THE BURDEN. *Lot my carry your pail, my dear,

Brimming over with water;'

Ha! I'll take told, and you take hold,"

Anawared the farmer's daughter.

And she would have her own awest way

As her merry sya grow brighter;

So she took hold and he took hold,

And it made the burden lighter.

-And every day the oaken pil

Over the well-curb slipping

Was upward drawn by hands of brawn,

Cool and so softly dripping. And every day the burden seemed

Lighter by being divided; For he took hold and she took hold, By the self-satue spirit guided. Till by and by they learned to love

And auch trust in the other, Till be for him, one twilight dim,

Luft father and left mother.

The wedding bells were rang si morn,

The bridal blessinga giren. And now the pair, withouta caro,

Entered an earthly heaven.

When storm and sunshine wingled, thoy

Would seldom trouble burrow; And when it came they met the same

With a bright hope of tomorrow..

And now they're at the ew of life,

While the western skies grow brighter, For she took hold, and he uk hold, And it made the burdenlighter. -N. Y. Ledger.

THE WATER-WITCH. FROM THE GERMAN OF HEINE. I know not what it betekens

That I feel so sad and still, And a legend of ancient times

Will haunt me against my will. The air is cool in the twilight,

While peacefully flows the Rhine; The tops of the mountains glitter In the evening's calu decline. The fairest of maidona is sitting

On the heights far over there— Her priceless jewels sparkling As she combs her golden hair. With a golden comb se combs it, And sings a song of the sen;

A on a wild and wayward

In its mournful melly..

And the milor hath teard the song.

And enthralled his mr kath stayed;

He listens, nor sees the rocka-

Bu aces but the fair witch-maid.

Ah, moneath the rippling wave

Flave vanished botilor and boat And still o'er his darksome grave

The notes of the water-witch float. -The Australasian.

BUD.

BY MRS M. L. RAYNE, in Detroit Free Pres.

One enld day in December a year ago a gentleman stopped on the corner of Gris-¦ wold and Congress streek, and beckoned to a small boot-black who was loitering ncar. The boy immediately responded and soon had one foot on his box and was polishing away for dear life.

The gentleman had just lunched at Haward aand, was feeling very comfortablein his inner man. His fur-trimmed cat bul- toned closely about his neck kept him warm and his gloved hands were thrust deep in lauriaus puckets. Looking down on the sorap of humanity at his fact he felt a sud- den thrill of benevolence.

Christmas is coming, Tommy,' he re- marked in an anotnous vok; what can I do for you 71

Did you make Krisiais asked the small urchin plying the brush with a will,

Well, no not exactly,' mawered the oug tainer, eyeing the object albis foot closely to see if he was in earnest; but because it is Christmas I'd like to be of some use to

you.'

'He's auch a little follor,' continued the kin ho asked far, the price is the same porop leasing itself against is post, and oross- I'will now exhibh to you a wax cast of the ing its small feet; "he ain't big an, strong bugs & liene of a man who had twelvo liko me, Bud ain't.

A half-hour Inter the gentleman was at Harper'e Hospital and was ushered into the children's ward. The little ones lying

there koked at him with n grave stare, svinced no curiosity in their pala. faces. They were too sick.

End was salasp. Bad was vary ill, the nurse said. He lay sunk low in the bed, with the malleys and surgical apparatus for broken limba strapped abuvo him. He was white and pinched and scarcely breathed at

all.

The caller, unused to scenes like those, sat down without removing hie for cap, or turning down the heavy collar of his coat. He looked over the protty heat ward, and read some of its pathetic history. A small work voice recalled his wondering rogard.

Be you Santa Claus

It was Bud who and awakened.

I oxpret 1 am Santa Claus,' humouring the sick child: new what shall I bring you tonight, when I come with my sleigh and reindeer"

You can't do nothin' for me,' answered Bud in the very words his partner had used, *'cause I'm goin' to hav my Krisous wid anther the doctor talled me; an' thero'lt be a big Krismas tree, and lots of toys and things. But I've got a pard; we an' him was in bisness when they hurt mo-Oh, dear

He coughed for a long time and a pro: fuse púrspiration broke out on his cold

forehead.

I ain't worry,' he said at last. Take care of Patay un tell him Bud aint sorry to go to hoven. I hears them-singin' some- we're like it was meatin-saing yer bacta, siri Wy it'e Kienus s'reddy-there's the splendidest tree, an' thera's Mother!

The nurse turned the sheet back reverent ly over the dead child's face, and the geuthswan who eat there took his cap off,

and bowed his head with reverenco for one greater than ho,

That was a year ago. Patsy hag a home and friends now and goes to achont, and up at the Children's Hospital is a bod par uanently endowed for the benefit of strays and waits who may be picked up maimed or helpless in the streets. And it is a memorial office, dedicated to no saint, but to a little unselfish street orphan who ouse occupied it, and whose name was Bud,
