Mc Crcery, an Iowa editor, anrl -were first pub lished in Arthur's Home Magazine of July, 1863. Shortly after this the Farmers' Ad vocate, published in Chicago, printed r.n article written by Eugene Bulmer. who saw fit to attach the poem to the end of it. A Wisconsin editor ci'pped the poetry and credited it to E. Bulmer. Another editor thought "m" should bc "w" and credited it to E. Bulwer, and in tir.e E. Bulwer was transformed ?nto Edward Bulwer, Lord Lytton. After a chase of nearly twenty five yetta Mr. McCreery was able to catch up with the lie and nail it fast. He is now widely known as thc author. There is no death! the stars go down To rise upon some other shore, And bright in heaven^ jeweled crown They shine forevermore. There is no death! thc forest leaves Convert to life.the viewless air; The TDCUS disorganize to feed Ihc hungry moss they bear. There is no death! the dust wc tread Shall change beneath the summer showers, To golden grain, or mellow fruit ' Or rainbow-tinted flowers. Then* is no death! thc Icavca may fall. Thc flowers mav fade and pass away They only wait through wintry hours, . The warm, sweet breath of May. There is no death! thc choicest gifts That heaven hath kindly lent to earth Are ever first to seek again Th-.* country of .their birth. And all things that for growth or joy Are worthy of our love or care, Whose loss has left us desolate, Are safely garnered there. Though, life become a desert waste, We know its fairest, sweetest flowers. Battle With a B South IN the dim and stuffy recesses of the fo'c's'le of the Beluga a silent, sullen company of men of all shades of color sat at their -l.'JO a. m. breakfast. Some munched stolidly at blocks of fat pork and flinty biscuit, others just drank alleged coffee and smoked. And they were thc majority, for few there arc who. after a night of sleep, especially in such an atmosphere, cnn rise and begin the morning meal (and such a meal) in five minutes. But those who did not cat concealed their portions about their persons, usually in the breasts of "jumpers," for there was never more than enough to go round. . Suddenly, with a voice like that of a frantic bull, came the expected com mand. "Now, 'way boats, there." It was immediately followed by a stam pede, each man struggling to be first up the narrow ladder, each man dread ing the sure and painful position of thc last. Reaching thc deck, the rushing, band divided itself in four, on^jtfKvt to each boat, whcrc^t**tltmg gleaming spectrally ngaiw?"the violet sky. None cas(tji^rrTr7^se upward or around, for . -stfne badftime or thought to sparc.-Yet the scene was entirely worthy of man's best notice. The daily miracle of dawn always is-but here! The shin lay mo tionless, anchored apparently upon a lake of transparent ink. in whose still depths strange gloamings occasionally heightened its mystery of utter dark ness. Around rose the solemn tree-clad hills of Hapal, now in deepest shadow. Away to the south, southeast and cast the way out to the broad besom of tho Pacific la: clearly open between the several Islands, and although from the two former quarters there was as yet no lightening of the deep velvety pur ple of the night, there was a something remotely Uko the opening of a door leading from a dark hall into the c.ear air; a little draught of freshness seemed stealing in from thence. But from thc cast there came through that gap a quivering throb of opal-tinted light, just rippling along the horizon and touching the still waters that lay be tween It and us with thc suggestion of glory to come, the first heart beat of that sweet day before which the mod est stars paled and vanished. And overhead the returning legion of flying foxes, fresh from .their long night's raid among the fruit trees, passed like squadrons of dark spirits hastening back to their native gloom at tho ad vent of light, and occasionally from their midst came a wail wringing the heart like a sudden terror. Td most of us all this was but sug gested, hardly realized; yet wc moved with utmost quiet, unconsciously fall ing in with our environment. And when thc rattle of a block, the sharp click of an oar on a gunwale, or a hoarse oath broke thc sacred peace of the.moment, an involuntary "Hush!" rose to the lips. Ten minutes a'ter our appearance on deck we were all In our places and, with thc steady, splashlcss stroke of trained whaling oarsmen, were silently gliding toward the por tals of the day. As the oars rose and fell they lifted overflowing chalices of emeralds, and as the sweet dark crept away great lakes of ever changing color, of infinite and Indescribable va riety, stolf> over the placid surface of the quiet sea. A cool breath crept from the dawn point to meet us; it kissed our heated necks, put fresh vigor Into our strokes, freshened, strengthened, until nt a ringing shout .. f command we flung our oars with one accord and prepared to make sail. Is it of any use, I wonder, trying to describe the scene that greeted us as we did so? I fear not, where so many master hands have failed, so let me say simply that tho pass ahead, leading seaward, was ailood with molten ruby, amethyst and opal, with a background of flaming gold, before which the shrinking eyes closed. "And the glory of the Lord was revealed." Ila, ha! how raptur ously the blood, so sluggish before, courses through our veins as the boats, birdlike, skim over the sparkling waves on the lightsome way to windward. But the business of th Jay needs re membering. We are ov. after whales, and unto him who can first report the presence of one, afterward caught, shall be given ?10. So a keen lookout is kept for a while, until the wonderful beauty of the scene obtains the sway over our minds again, and the boats glide swiftly along the steep shores of the outermost island. "Ah-blow-w-w-w-w!" almost In a whisper and several hands are pointed to where, against thc dark green of thc cliffs, yet in shadow, three vapory spir als of varying heights show clearly. But what can three mean? Two of them we can account for-thc broad, bushy one and the tiny jct only four or five feet high. The third, however closely associated with the other two, and of great height, puzzles us-does not delay us, though, for with paddles unshipped we urge the progress of our craft toward those vast unconscious mammals so pleasantly sojourning in the shade. We are abreast of them, helms arc put up, and all four boats bear down upon them with the swoop NO DEATH." Transplanted into paradise Adorn immortal bowers. The voice of birdlike melody That we have missed and mourned so loni Now mingles with the angel choir In everlasting aong. There >s no death! although we grieve When beautiful, familiar forms That we have learned to love are torn Fro.n our embracing arms Although with bowed and breaking heart, With sable garb and silent tread, We bear their senseless dust to rest, : We say that they are "dead" i AThcy are not dead! they have but passed Beyond the mists that blind us herc, Into tlie new -ind larger life ? Of that serener sphere. They have but dropped their robe of clay To put their shining raiment on; They have not wc-ndcred far away *. They are not "lost" or "gone." " Though disenthralled and glorified, ' They still ar? herc and love as yet; .The dear ones they have left behind They never can forget. And sometimes, when our hearts prow faint Amid temptations fierce and deep, Or when the wildly raging waves . Of grief or passion sweep Wc feel upon our fevered brew Their gentle touch, their breath of balm. Their arms enfold us, and our hearts Grow comforted and calm. And ever near us, though unseen, Tho dear, immortal spirits tread For all the boundless universe Is L:fc;-there are no deadl H f IQftX l? W?ale in the Seas. of gigantic hawks. When but a shlp't length away, sails arc rolled up as If automatically. Noiseless ns fish we glide into the shadow and-strike. What an awful uproar breaks up that sweet solitude; the shoutings of excited men, the furious struggled of wounded levia thans, whose mighty tail strokes rever berate in hollow thunder along the echoing cliffs. The heretofore .placid sea hisses and boils, and the boats toss as in a maelstrom. What cnn be amiss? Not thus is the humpback mother wont to meet an attack unless her youngling is Injured. Ah, that is lt, surely. Her calf must be dead, and, if so, then heads must needs be cool and hands skilful or there will be many numbers lost from our good ship's messes. Two boats disappeared to windwjyr4> in a smother of spray, ajiiLjp^HTiib re main dimly imagmo^kfTome disinter ested fnsliioiy^?HTac manner of hump backthgs4nay be fast lo. But not for ,/leT?gTior 'suddenly toward us comes rushing a faintly outlined black mass piled high with snowy foam, and we must needs exert every muscle to avoid that terrible onslaught. We do just succeed-the mighty one passes, and disappears. Oh, for some shelter, If only a shallow reef! But there ls none. Crash! and like an earthquake shock cerno the maddened mother's flukes against tho side of the other boat, hurl ing her and her disintegrated contents far shoreward. Never again will that boat molest a whale. And also, oh, sorrow and shame! never again Hallett Winslow, best, brightest, ?Br^ est of harpooners, see the blessed sun rise. His neck is broken. Now, while she is venting her fury upon the float ing fragments let us escape. But there are our shipmates, and as swiftly as our slinking limbs allow wc pick them up, expecting every moment to go even as they went-and then? The next few minutes passed like' some hideous nightmare, frantic, joint wrenching endeavors to keep out of the way of tho monster beut upon our de struction, and sudden eruptions, up< hen va ls of the sea, so close to us that destruction seemed impossible of avoid ance. And all this time, wherever we went In the turmoil, we never lost sight of the calf whale. As if to cal.4 our crime continually to remembrance it kept us company, tossing helplessly upon the tormented waters. At Inst and although I feel sure that half an hour had not passed, yet the time seemed interminable-we found our selves, almost exhausted, close to tne rocks, where an overhanging ledge, thickly clothed with drooping branches, jutted out above deep water, but only about throe feet above the surface. With one last' Cash of energy -we all sprang for shelter, scrambled like mon keys into the tangle of the trees, just as the uhbreathed parent rushed nt our deserted boat and crushed it into matchwood, returning again and again to the fragments until they were al most ground Into splinters. All the while we hung precariously, fearfully, just above the terrible tumult, pos sessed with the idea that even here we were hardly safe from so redoubtable a foe. And then into the blazing sunshine, which had now crept up to our refuge, there sprang the other whale, towing behind him the two surviving boats, still uninjured. Upon our almost be numbed brains fell a deeper fear. Were we about to witness the destruction of all that little company, s wlftly near ing this place of utmo. langer? No long suspense, for out from the shadow of our cliff sprang the vengeful mother to meet her spouse and finish her great work of retribution. But as she came we saw the bull whole slacken speed, saw the two boots' spread out fnnwlse behind him, saw the cow rush between them fully exposed. A puff of white smoke, nnd presently n tiny report as of a revolver shot. Then for a few mo ments our view was obscured by tumb ling waves raised by the two monsters In their Surry, the one of death, the other of escape. And out of that boll ing vortex emerged our two boats, still uninjured, a large black mass floating between them in utter immobility, while far to the windward a tall jet ns of steam from a high pressure waste pipe showed where the agile bull was making his utmost speed from the place of death.

Ways In Which Prevarication May Be Developed. How does one become a liar? That ls to say, how does the child dis cover a lie and habitually make uso of lt? We can admit that at the begin ning there is absolute sincerity. Tho child through all its first years neither lies nor dissimulates. Its sentiments, Its desires, translate themselves into words and into acts. Its body is thc constant and perfect expression of its inmost being. Such ls the starting point-sincerity,, absolute transpai ency. There is a multitude of little lies toi. erated which wo treat as pardonable. We tell the domestic to say wc arc not at home when we are; we compliment people to their faces and criticise them when they are go::c; we say vre are happy -to see some one and di rectly after speak of having boen an noyed. No more is necessary. Tho example has been given. We lie to thc child himself; we arc pressed by his many embarrassing questions and in order to free our selves from tho embarrassment re ply with what is frequently a false hood. Some fine day he discovers the truth, and thc evil is done. Thc gravest case is when the child is taken as an accomplice in a lie, or when his mother tells him, "Above all, do not tell this to your papa." This is the ruin of morality. The third stage is the first encounter of the child with society-thc first shock with social life. The child who tells all he knows, sees and hears, all that he would better have left unsaid, is called the "enfant terrible." His parents do not tell him to lie, but they tell him It is not necessary to tell all he thinks. This ls extremely serious, as it teaches thc child that he cannot show himself as he is. This is the revelation of the lie obligatory. Abovo all, among his comrades he is naive expresses all his joys, pains, desires -they make sport of him-nay, worse, they abuse his confidence; the hopes, projects which he has confided tu them he some day secs used against him. Thus the impossibility of living with out lying is revealed to him Society excuses certain forms of lying which are inspired by a feeling of polite ness, modesty, shame. The child becomes a liar becauso all th?; world about him Hes. The dis tinction between the liar and thc man of sincerity is only relative. There are in reality only two categories those who content themselves with the lies exacted by social lifo am? those who have habituated themselves to lying more thaj}^-3ek4y wishes^to ^iSjl?G?l-HSe^i^sonie personal interest. An Important cause in the develop rcent of lying in children is the em ployment of excessive and ill advised punishment. Th.? child who becomes a liar is the one who lives in perpetual terror of reproaches, humiliation or strokes. The lie for him is a supreme resource.-Chicago Tribune. Women and the Food Supply. Manufacturers appeal to housewives by every advertising channel practi cable to "ask your grocer," or "send us the name of your grocer." for ar ticles newly put upon the market, it being a recognized fact that though grocers are always ready to order anything asked for, it is not easy t& awaken the housewife's Interest in .^anything out of the beaten track of "staples."
