the roads are in one sense great nuisance for they totally ohstruet the view for hun dreds of miles; but am not going to tell what he saw in his California trip and will come back to Eysnston. Starting from Mir. Browns house we first drove through street after street Of tastefuI homes, mostly of gentlemen whose busi- ness keeps them six days ill the week in Chicago, while their families live here, apart from all it's discomforts and in reach of all it's comforts. Their children have as good educational advantages as 1t is possible to have, and Evanston is grow ing more and more popular. As we drove toward the college grounds, 'sNow," said Mir. Brown, ''see the yankee invention for opening the gate. That was invented in Connecticut. Your yankees know how to make things, but we know how to use them" As he madethe remark the wheel of tho carriage struck an iron six or eight inches high, which as we rolled 1t over opened the gate, but it 80 remained till we had made the tour of the grounds, when 1t was reversed and the gate closed Qn Cleveland saw similar springs each side of gate, so that carriage would open a gate and after passing through, close it). Barbara Heck has here an en- during monument, the principle college building being named from her, and bear ing the inscription ''Heck's Hall" It is built near tho centre of a natural grove of large trees that extend quite to the waters edge, the beach affOrding delightful drive. A student need have nothing to distract his attention from his books, whiie a"saite i4e can-entoy the advantage of the most refined society. My friend invited us to attend her reading circle" with her that evening, but as my time was limited, and Washington lady resided ill Evanston, excused myself, preferring to spend the evening with her. However, my sister-in-law attended, and said she had fine intellectual treat. The ''circle' was large and Mir. B said there were four other reading societies as we'll attended. T mention these little facts because the prevailing impression East is that Vest ern people lack cultivation, and that 'sBud Means, in the Hoosier schoolmaster, is a type of the young men one usually meets at the West, whereas the dramatic yankee is just as correct a representation of the race, as Bud Means is of the Western in- habitants. There are extremes in all communities, both East and West After leaving Evanston made but short visit in Chicago, before revisiting La Safle county. How that county seemed after a dozen years absence, will tell in my next communication.

to you, and as was naturally working in mothers interest, and thougt you would rather not have the joke go beyond the family, said nothing to him, but just copied it, with few variations. And oh, father and mother both, I ana strong and healthy, and can work if need be; and you were poor when you married. And so, added this irrepressible young female, 'tyou know how it is yourselves.
 'sHave your own way, replied these ridiculous parents. "And now about Julia; and here, of course, she comes.

You little know Q mothers sym pathetic heart if you suppose that such state of things could exist without her cognizanee." her usual serenity, ''to spare you any far ther excitement this warm weather, will state that neither the great fortune nor the small habits of the gentleman are of the slightest importance to your daugh- ter, who does not intend to marry him. This indifference may possible result, continued the imperturable young female, ''from what Mir. Weller would call 'pri- ory attachment. .E
 "Awhats" cried the much-tried parents. again in terror.
 ''Priory attachment: party of the name of Tillinghurst, we'll know to you both as sober, honest, and sufficiently wel-to- do."

 ''I little know a mothers sympathetic heart, quoted the delighted father.

For the Last Time,

There is touch of pathos about do
ing even the simplest thing ''for the
last time" 1t is not alone kissing the
lips of the dead that gives you this
strange pam. You feel it when you
look last upon some scene which you
have loved-when you stand in some
quiet city street, where you know that
you will never stand again. The actor
playing his part for the last time, the
singer whose voice is cracked hopeless
ly, and who, after this once, will never
stand again before the sea ofsupturned
faces, disputing the plOudits with
fresher voices and fairer forms, the
minister who has preached his last ser
mOn-these all know the hidden bit
ternSss of the two ords, ''never
again. How they come to US on our
birthdays as we grow older Never
again young, always nearer aud nearer
to the very last-the end which is uni
veasal, the ''last thing" which shal
follow all last things and turn them
let us hope, from pains to joys We
put away our boyish toys with an old
headache. We are too old to walk
any longer on our stilts-too tail to
play marbles on the sidewalk; yet
there was pang when we thought we
had played with our merry thought
for the last time, and life's serious,
grown. up work was waiting for u.s.
Now, we do not want the lost toys
back Life has other and larger play
things for u.s. May it not be tha
these, too, shall seem in the light O.
some far off day, as the boyish game:
seem to our manhood, and we shall
learn that death is the opening of {
gate into the new land of promise.
