beauty.

Not en- the earth
Hath beauty bloom, hath beauty power;
This Is alone its natal hour
The chamber of its birth;
Here the germ dwells,
And prone to silence, and to- night
It burns. to love and life and light
6 A. daisies in our dells.
But not on earth
Hath beauty growth beyond the flower
The life that in a day or hour
Goes to another birth;
And all we see
OF beauty is = glimmer bright
Is but the promise of night
i The glory that's to be. ts
When, in the skies,
The spirit doth unfold and find
Life's hopes grown perfect to the mind,
For beauty then it signs;
And beauty there
Compares with beauty here below,
As mornings golden skies aglow
With murkiest clouds compare.
The forms we love
And cherish for each faultless line,
But shadows are of those divine
That we shall know above;
10, let us live
In love of Nature, not of Art,
That each may then, with reverend heart,
Fit homage have to give.

A DEFENCE OF THE SIDE-SAD'
DIE.
How the Girls. Must Ride, If the HOr
ses Ever Get Well.

How the Girls Must Ride, If the HOr.
ses Ever Get Well.
a writer in Turf, Field and Farm says:
What are the American wemen coming to?
From long experience in fox-hunting, l
can vouch for the safety and ease of a wo-
mans seat on a well built English side-sad
die: but the saddle must be an English
hunting saddle, properly fitted to the back
of a well. broken, highly bred saddle horse
if possible, an animal that has been rid
den to fox hounds, and the rider must not
be encountered with long, loose habit
skirt, She must be attired for hard work
in a close setting, comfortably fitting cloth
habit, the skirt of which should not
do more than touch the ground
when the wearer stands; also,
the stirrup should be a plain steel one,
neither lined DOR padded, and fully two
sizes too large for the riders foot. If these
proper precautions are taken, there is no
more danger in riding on a side-saddle tn IN
there is in sitting on an ordinary chair.
Where the danger now arises is that the
riders have no more seats than mere sacks,
and no more hands than if Nature had on
ly supplied them with fins. In reference TO
a letter signed delaware" be says his
Oaug 0UcE , lOllB ShLtS C1No1u q holoO W oA =
and in shying he threw out ef their carriage
a gentleman aud his wife and child. Why
did lis daughter allow her skirts to fly loose
and brighten the horse? Yet to me this is
far better than kill him outright, as l ina
CINE so susceptible brute would be by the
unlovely and novel sight of a female
riding en- cGUGlieT. In central Europe
/ have frequently seen peasant women II
ding astride on mules and donkeys, perched
ND between their market baskets; but l
never saw and never want to see, wo-
man of education and refinement riding
astride, on the road, in the park, or in the
hunting field. In the British Isles, where
women ride as forward as the men, there
are, propOItionally, far less serious accidents
among female riders than among male, and
this is TO be accounted for mainly by the
fact that, being compelled from the nature
of their seat to ride chiefly by balance, they
become more scientific in the handling Of
the reins, and less likely to bully horse OF
rough handle his mouth. Fighting horse
and rushing him at his fences, is just the
correct way to bring him and his rider to
grief.

KISS, BUT NEVER TELL.

A world of bliss lies IN kiss, T 10
When snatched from lips that love Is well;
SO indulge your taste In every case,
But, mind you, never kiss and tell.
Like mornings ray the smile may play
Round lips where Cupid loves to dwell;
Then take a"smack," or pay one back,
But, mind you, never kiss and tell.
II You have pressed the hesving breast
Where loves warm passions gently swell,
And from the lip the nectar sip
Have taken, mind you, never tell.
Weep, if you please, your heart to ease,
AS did old Jacob at the well;
But never say in any way
That you have kissed; so never tell.

THOSE dry but useful people who delight
In statistics have been investigating the eff
feet of marriage and celibacy on mortality.
They have demonstrated to their satisfac-
ton the beneficial effect of marriage upon
longevity. The last person who has devo'
ted his attention to this SUBJECTS M Bertll,
Ion. His statistics cover the states OF
France, Holland and Belgium. According
TO NJ. Bertillon, between the ages OF 20 and
35, out Of 1000 married men there are o
deaths; out of 1000 bachelors 10 deaths,
and 900 widowers % deaths. Between
80 and 80 The deaths 10 the same number
are: Married men Z, bachelors ii, and Wild
overs II. Between IS and 40 years Of age
the mortality per 1000 is: Married men z,
bachelors l3, and widowers II. Contidu-
ing these calculations through different Sc

1t lies there alone; it is rusty and faded,
With a patch on the elbow, hole in the side;
But we think of the brave boy who wore it, and
Look on it with pleasure and touch it with
pride.
A history clngs to it; over and over,
We see proud youth hurried off to the fray,
With his form like the oak, and his eye like the
How gallant he rode in the ranks of ''the
Gr8yi"
1t is rough, it is worn, it is tattered in places,
But love it the more for the story it bears
4 story Of courage in struggle with sorrows,
And a heart that bore brayely its burden Of

In thetilkiest sheen when he wore it away,
And mis- smile was as bright as the glad summer

There's rip in the sleeve, and the collar is tar

The buttons all gone with their glitter and

'Tis thing of the past, and we reverently lay il
Away with the treasures and relics of old,
As the gifts of love, solemn, sweet and UNI
Are cherished as leaves from long vanished
We will keep the old jacket for the sake of the
loved one
Who rode in the van in the ranks of "tht

Shot through with bullet-rlght here in the
And down there the pocket is spHntered and

Charging down in the battle one deadliest daE
When sQuadrons of foemen were broken asunde
And Victory rode with the ranks Of ''th

It's memory is sweetness and sorrow eommingleG
To me it is rrecious-more precious than gold
In the rent and the shOt-holes volume is writ

In the stains on the lining is agony told.
That WAS ten years ago, when in LIES sunni

And the old coat he wore aud the good sword Ii
