Evening Shadows.

Surely the day is donel
Long fall the shadows from the snowy hills;
Not yet have walked the sleepy little rills ;
But softly fair
Float everywhere ''
Although the day is done.
All, yes, the day is done; .-
And one by one
The ghosts of twilight fit across the sky 4;
indoors, the fire-elves on the carpet lie.
Tired of the play,
The children say,
Because the day is done.
We know the day is done
Our feet have run
Unresting in the path that duty made,
Treading on thorns of dangers not afraid F;
And rest is sweet
Though nigh hours fleet;
And day again comes on.
The day of life is done
And set the sun
Eyes dim to fairest lights that each can show,
Ears needless, though enhancing music flow,
And marble brow
Unwrinkled now
Indeed, the day is done
But is the day not done,
And set the sun
When seas of amber light transfuse the air,
And Paradise flowers bloom everywhere :?
Der purple hills
The sunrise thrills
Heavens day is just begun

She held out two pistols. He look

thing in the voice or expression had
suddenly impressed him as being
strangely familiar. But the jaunty
cap, the muffling cloak, the trim mus

impenetrable. He took one of the
weapons without a word.

Gossip about George Washington
His House and Habits IN PhiIadeI-

phia.
| From q contribution to Hearth and Home
| by Grace Greenwood
A while since, in looking over a
P Philadelphia directory for 1897, my
heart gave great bound as 1 came
upon this entry: i.-
Washington, George, 100 High street
To the disgrace of Philadt lphia that
house, second only in historic interest
to Independence Hall, was many years
ago demolished. But for few charmed
hours of midsummer evening that
mansion has stood again for me, and
Washington has walked before my
eyes Sin his habit as he lived;" and
yet the only magic conjuration was the
clear memory of a gracious old man,
who, in his early childhood, was a
neighbor of Washington, his parents
living, 1 believe, on Sixth street, near
High. sy-- ,l.. Sc ,, i'e,At .,.'l
At the house of friend in Phila-
delphia 1 was so fortunate as to meet
Mr.. Robert E.. Gray,@a gentleman
past forescore, but wonderfully well
preserved - lookingH much younger
than his years-a gentleman of the
old school in courteousress of manner,
in elegance and neatness of dress,
stately'oin figure, with a fresh and
handsome countenance. In person
and demeanor he reminded me strong
ly of Walter Savage Landor, as 1
saw him in his eighty-frst year.
When 1 asked this noble relic of
the past for his recollections of Wash
ington, he said: "Bless you, I have
little to tell. was so very young at
the time when knew him that have
only childish recollections, mere trifes,
which will scarcely interest you" On
my assuring him that these were Just
the things l wanted to hear, he talked
modestly, and with much Questioning,
of the old days of Philadelphia, and
of the great President and his house
hold. ...-t /,
In his childhood, he said, the place
where we then were-on Tenth street,
near Arch, with the roar of the great
city about us-was quite in the rural
districts. He remembered going to
bathe in the little pond near the cor
ner of Sixth and Arch streets, a Sc
cluded and shaded spot. High street,
the fashionable avenue, was only paved,
up as far as Ninth, but it was planted
with rows of the Lombardy poplar
nearly out to the Schuylkill, and was
the favorite Sunday promenade of the
citizens 7s -. ,s.' .-s.
"Washington'sl house," said Mr..
Gray, twas thought very fine man.
sion. 1t was what was called "a house
and half-that is, the half was not
in the middle. but had two windows
at the right and one window at the
left. 1t was two stories and half
high, with dormer windows. It was
rented for the President, of Robert
Morris, but originally belonged to
Galloway, the Tory"
"Was Washington the stately and
formal parsonage he has been repre-
sented?"
