I wrer passed a hail.

The hoes are fast and angels wait

A Little Coward.
Jimmy Itoward was 12 years old,
^nd away from home for the first time
ia his life.; His mothet was an iuva
gC* lid, amt his parents had sent him to a
|-V boarding fcxhool. He had expected it
would be grand fun, and he had en
J; joy^the first day very mach, bnt it
^ yr^jsn?e?,. and here he was in his
|| room with four other boys, and he had
J^rbtnised his mother to read a few
Torses in his Testament and pray
night.
> ; ->l canV he said to himself. I know
r^:;t?ese fellows never pray ; see how
? : iuSfof fun they are/
r*B?it you promised/ Conscience
' /wfSspered.
l^^pM?ther never half knew how hard
?it would be, or she never would have
J ; *sked me. Why, I shouldn't wonder
??-they throw their shoes at me. There
?TV -wjMilto't-be any comfort praying that
? . wayr*-^U jost jomp into bed and say
; : iny prayers there, and I'll read my
%y Testament to-morrow when they are
% o*^^bg.'
?0^S?tiie quieted the voice of con
|^;^?e?e?ce and slipped into bed, polled
the clothing over his face to shot ont
:'V; the clatter and tried to pray. Bot he
. was not happy, and the words would
?etcome Presently it grew quiet,
^and he heard one of the boys say,
v -*John, it's your tum to read to-night/
;*/ ;*S? 'tis/ was the answer.
And. then he listened as John read
I *?oed taie &tk chapter of Ephesians.
>> *3%iais my verse, boys/ John said,
as h% finished:
/Be Isot drunk with wine, wherein
is-excess, but be filled with the
/ spirit.'
/li?t one about 'redeeming the
/time* is mine/ said one of the others.
-^Seems to me that one about 'fool-i
tah talking and_ jesting* comes home
i : to ??pfettjrwe?l, I uever knew that
>- V?tat was i? the Bible, did yt a ??mT
."-*Ycs> ??t?ter read it to nie once,
?mHt ?s an awfel hard one to rive up
fi *What is your verse V he asked of -j
: a. lazy-look i ug boy who was lounging j
O? the foot of his bed.
4Lhaven't any/ he drawled oat.
r 'Where's the new boyV asfced j
John. Then, seeing where he was :
- *t. sjay, Jimmy Howard, a?u^t you
ashamed of yourself to go into bed
-without saying your prayers ?'
;"Xes, I am, sure as you're alive/
the boy said, rolling out. 'Pm a reg
nlar little coward ; I tbooght you'd
all laugh at me, and I couldn't stand
it?*
~ - Arid as he dropped upon his knees
with the others he remembered a Sun
* day-school lesson of several months
..-Before, about the Prophet Elijah, un?
der the juniper tree, bewailing the
seppposed fact that he was the only
one who did not wot sh ip Baal, when j
there were thousands in Israel who
Bad not bowed the knee to that falte
U Cod
.Tbe next day Jimmy Howard wrote
io his mother a full confession of his
Vrong, not forgetting to tell how he
had been comforted, while begging
lor forgiveness, in the thought that
the great Prophet Elijah had at one
/time been just as weak and cowardly
as he.-St. Louis Republican.
Origin of Phrases.
Bishop Fleetwood says that 'dandy'
coin?s from a silver coin of small value
circulated in the reign of Henry Viii , j
sod called a -dandy-prat' 'Bombait'j
has an odd derivation. Originally the j
word (from the Latin bombast cotton) j
meant nothing but cotton wadding used j
for : Siting and staffing. Shakespeare j
I ' employs it in this sense in 'Love's Labor ?
* Lost* : *As bombast and as tining to the j
time/ The phrase, 'a featner in one's j
, cap/ is accounted forby the follewingj
passage in an old book, a'Description of j
Hungary/ printed in 1599. The wri?
ter says af the inhabitants:'It bath
been an ancient custom among them
that none should wear a feather bat he
Tho had killed a Turk, to whom onlic
yt was lawful, to show ye nuoiber of
' bis slain enemys by the number of fea- !
Ibers in his cappe/ The origin cf the
convivial word 'bumper' is traced to the
* phrase au bonpere, a toast drank to the
pope in old times in England.
Mr. J. S. Nixon, of this place, while
in attendance at Presbytery at Newport, j
last week, engaged in conversation with !
the young Indian whom the Presbytery j
took under ?ts care. Io speaking of the j
Indian names this young man said :
.Now, the river Su>qoehanna received j
its name in this way : Au Indian stand?
ing on one side of the bank called across
to the other, 'Sosqne?' which means,
*Are you there V His friend replied.
Hanna,' which, interpreted, means, 'I j
au? here ' A white man standing near
heard it, and named the river accord?
