TRYIN TO THE BAsrE.-A llibernian
fresh from the ''green isle" having
sufficient means to provide himself
with a horse and cart (thc latter a
kind he probably never saw before),
went to work on public road.
Being directed by the overseer to
move a lot of stone near by and de-
post them in gully on the side of
the road, he Forthwith loaded his cart
drove up TO the place, and had nearly
finished throwing off his load by
hand, when :he overseer told him that
was not the way, he must tilt or dump
bis load ut once Paddy replied that
he would know better the next time.
After loading again he drove to the
chasm, put his shoulder to the wheel
aud upset the horse, cart, and all into
the gully Scratching his head, and
looking rather doubtfuIly at his horse
below him, he observed "Bedad, it's
a mighty quick way, but it must be
tryin' TO the baste."

A Few Maxima for Girls.

Never make your-appearance in the
morning without having first 5aihed,
il only with sponge and quart of
water brush and arrange your hair /;
dress yourself neatly aud completely.
Keep your clothing, especially your
underclolhing, in perfect order New.
er ls' pins do duty us buttons, or
strings take the place ofproper bands.
Examine every garment when il
comes from the wash, and, if necessa-
ry, mend it with ncatness and preci.
sion. Do not sew mp the holes in
your stockings, as we have seen some
careless, untidy girls do, but take in u
broad margin around tho hole, be it
small or large, with a fine darning
needle and darning cotton, and cover
the fracture with an interlace stitch,
so close as to be as strong as Che body
of the stocking, and fine enough to be
ornamental. Stockings monded in
this way need darning but few times
the course of their existence.
Never carry coarse, embroidered or
lace hankerchiefs. Fine plain ones
are much more lady like.
Avoid open worked stockings and
fancy slippers. Fine plain hose and
black kid slippers, with only strap
or rosette in front, are far more be.
coming.
Train yourself to useful occupation.
Remember il is wicked to waste time,
and that nothing gives such an i'm
preston of vanity and absolute silli.
ness as habit of idling and never
having anything to do.
If you are in your fathers house,
take on yourself some department of
the household labor, and a part of the
sewing, and make it your business to
attend TO it. Do not let q call from
this idle girl, or a visit from that, or
an invitation from the other, interfere
with the performance of your duty.
Let pleasure come in as recreation
mot Us the business of your life.
If you can, cultivate some art by
which you can gain an independent
livelihood Do it, whether there is
necessity for it or not DO il quietly,
if you will, but do it. There is no
telling when, or under what circum.
stances, you may need Demorest

Wake up, Little Bessie"

Past six o'clock in the morning,
And Bessie is still sound asleep
OF this wonderful rosy dawning
She's had not so much as n peep.
The birds meath her window are wild
With their efforts 10 waken the world !;
They think It's an indolent child
Under the cOvcrlld curlcd.
For they have been up since the dawn,
With rosy touch painted the east,
And from hillside, meadow and lawn
Have gathered their morning least
Have poured out the joy OF their hearts
In many sweet roundclay;
And now they are lonely for Bessie,
And arc calling her out to her play.
"Wake up. little Bessie r' they cry,
And spring from your soit, doWny nest,
The sun is far up in the sky,
The fresh air out here is the best.
AT the very first glimmcr of light
That tipped the gray hills far away,
We sung goodbye to the night
And welcomed the fair, rosy day.
ave flockcd to your window in crowds,
And tapped With our bcaks on the pane;
We gave you grand matinee,
Then back to our home flew again.
We bathed in the brook meath the hill
And dressed all our feathers with care,
We are back TO your window, and still
Find you sleeping so lazily there.
"The robin is picking his berry,
The wOodpccker taps on the tree,
The thrush on the bough of the cherry,
Calls loudly for you ana for me
Then wake, little girl, in the morning,
When the flowers are all bathing in dew,
When the wonderful beauty belonging
To young life is fresh, bright and new"

Giant Geyser.

Our search for new wonders leading
us across the Fire Hole River, we ascend.
ed a gentle, incrusted slope, and came
suddenly upon large oval aperatule
with scalloped edges, the diameters Of
which were eighteen and twenty-five
feet, the sides corrugated and covered
with grayishwhile silicious deposit,
which was distinctly visible at the depth
of one hundred feet below the surface
No water could be discovered, but we
could distinctly hear it gurging aud
boiling at great distance below. Sud.
denly it began to rise, boiling and sput-
tering, and sending out huge masses OF
steam, causing general stampede Of our
company, driving us some distance from
our point OF observation. When within
about forty feet of the surface it became
stationary and we returned to look down
upon it. 1t was toaming and serging at
a terrible rate, occasionally emitting
small jets of hot water nearly to the
mouth OF the oritice. All at once it
seemed to be seized with fearful spasm.
and rose with incredible rapdity, hardly
atfording us time to flee to "A sale distance,
when it burst from the oritice with ter
rifle momentum, rising in a column the
full size OF this immense aperture to the
height of sixty feet aud through and
out of the apex OF this vast aqueous
mass, five or six lesser jets or round
columns Of water varying in size from
six to fifteen inches in diameter were
projected to the marvellous height OF two
hundred and fifty feet. These lesser Jets,
so much higher than the main column,
and shooting through it, doubtless pro-
ceeded from auxiliary pipes leading into
the principal orice near the bottom,
where the explosive tolce is greater. If
the theory that water by constant boil
ing becomes explosive when freed from
air he true, this theory nationally ac-
counts for all irregularities in the erup-
tion Of the geysers.
This grand eruption continued for
twenty minutes, and was the most mag.
nificent sight we ever witnessed. We
were standing ON the side of the geyser
nearest the sur, the CLEANS of which
filled the sparkling column of water and
spray with myriads of rainbows, whose
arches were constantly changing-dip-
ping and futtering hilher and thither,
and disappearing only to be succeeded
by others, again and again, amid the
aqueous column, while the minute glo-
6ules in which the spent jets were diff
fused when falling sparkled like shower
of diamonds, and around every shadow
which the denser clouds of vapor, inter-
rupting the SUMS rays, cast upon the
column, could be seen luminous circle
radiant with all the colors of the prism,
and resembling the halo OF glory repre-
sented in paintings as encircling the
head Of Divinity. All that VIC had pre-,
viously witnessed seemed tame in com.
pdrison with the perfect grandeur and
beauty of this display. Two of these
wonderful eruptions occurred during the
twenty-five hours we remained in the
valley" WonderS Of the Yellowstone" "
