An Eccentric Princess

Close to this place I saw two Arabs AMI
a woman building rough wall along the
road. There was an air of intelligence
about the wonlan'S face not in accordance
with her occupation. apparel, or soiled
hands. TIE impression was confirmed
on conversing with her, and I was aston
ished to think she could not gain living
by some higher occupation than Blu ilding
a wall.

her name for me 2
Yes. Would I walk into her house 2

was now more puzzled than ever.
She produced large book and'asked me
to write my name. I glanced over the
pages, ana saw French Counts, Germa n
Barons, Russian Princes, Irish and Eng
lish Lords and Dukes, and Francis Joseph,
Emperor of Austria. She wrote her
name on card, the Princess de Ia tour d

NapOleOn's Secret.

Mr.. Angel writes from Paris-Ths
Emperor of France has made this city the

millions of whose money are brought from
other countries and capitals to earich this.
What is the secret? Broad. beautiful

and because SO paved, such saving in
carriages, harness ard horses, that carri-
age hier is cheap; beautiful gardens and
public grounds, many of these streets,
gardens and grounds made, by almost in

houses fitted with apartments for families;
convenient bakeries and cookeries public
amusements streets safe at all hours of
day and night F.; carriages so regulated that
strangers are protected !; buses never per-
mitted to take more than they can seat;
articles of food and drink carefully looked
after by the police, bad and adulterated
articles destroyed, the sellers fined, anu

How the Quaker's Ram was Cured o.
ButtinE.

An honest Quaker farmer in Berkshire
county, Massachusetts,, had raised fine
large mastiff which he valued highly.
One day Tanbark that was the dogs
name, unfortunately got into bad CON-
pany, and engaged in sheep-killing ex-
petition. Having thus acquired taste
for the exciting sport, and for the fresh
mutton thereby obtained, the dog, like all
his race, Gid not possess enough self-denl-
al to let thorough good whipping pre-
vent his indulging in it occasionally.
The Quaker was greatly grievcd, for he
ated to destroy the ANIMAL Presently
his hired man, Jones. suggested an in
genious plan to cure the dog Of his sheep
Killing propensities. which the tender
hearted Quaker joyfully adopted. We
will let Mr.. Jones tell the rest Of the
story
sTbere was on the farm powerful old
ram somewhat famous for butting, and ]
tried in vain to break him of this bad
habit. I concluded if shut up the two
togetber-Tanbark and the ram-one OF
the other would surely have to give in
and either the dog would get sick of sheep
killing, or the ram of butting and was
right. I shut them up over night in the
COW stable, and when I went out in the
morning. I found poor Tanbark effectuallJ
cured. The ram had avenged the mur-
der of his brethren by breaking every
bone in the body Of the unhappy dog
And wonderfully uplifted was the pugnac'
| ious animal BY bis exploit. Instead o
being tanned by the dog. as had hoped
his batting propensities increased SO tina
his insolence became intolerable; he wa.
sure to pitch into whomsoever or whatso

where Flowers Came From.

Some of our flowers came from lands oil
perpetual summer. some from countries all
ice and snow, from islands in the ocean.
Three of our sweetest exotics came origi-
nally from Peru; the camella was carried to
England in 1880 and few years after
wards the heliotrope and mignionette. Sc
veral others from the Cape Of Good Hope;
a very large Gala was found in bitches
there, and some Of the most brilliant
geraniums. or Fairgrounds. which are a
spurious geranium. The verbeaa grows
wild in Brazil; the marigold is an African
flower; and a great number are from
China and Japan. The little Daphne
was carried to England by Captain Ross.
from almost the farthest land he visited
toward the North Pole.
Some Of these are quite changed in form
by cultivation !; others have only become
larger and brighter while others, despite
all the care Of florists and the shelter Of
hot houses, fall far short of the beauty and
fragrance ofthe tropics.

THE DAY DREAM.
BIZ PAUL MuRNIE.
There's low, sweet dream of melody,
IT'S the song ofsa bird eternal
A snowy bird, with luminous wings--
Like an angels breath 10 its voice as it sings
In golden cage it sits aud sings,
And the golden wire responsive rings
With an ecstasy supernaL
fksresa mystic dream Of euphony-
IT'S like holy hymn to mo
Like dream of prayer-and velvet strain
Responds in melody again,
A thrilling, shsdowy refrsin.
In matchless melody again,
Responds with ceasefsss symphony.
Thus the bird will sing for aye,
In ripples low-and rsagly
The murmurs come with magic swell,
Like shadows of silver the gurglss we'll,
And the note Of the stainless bird, spell
Throws over my spirit soothingly.
The cage is the he~rt sad Love is the bird,
That sings so pure andsacredy;
The cadence that thrills the treasulous chords
Is the eager tone and yearning words
OF loves young dream, which ever aeeords
With music high and heavenly.
The shadow is gone and | am alone
Spectres dim and Sauha Owe reck lessly-
A bat far down q gloomy aisle,
'Gainst cobw ebbed chords that moan the while,
Drags out wiz zard wail-and wild
A mourning heart sobs hopclessly.
A girlish laugh rang through "Lang Syne,"
Like a silver stream in the plains of life
1t rang win ripping mtlulatian,
1t tuned the dancing hesrt's pulsation-
All now to me is desolafon-
Agony and peaceless strife.
