AN EVENING REVERE.
While gazing into the cheavens,

While gazing into the cheavens,
one evening, wrapt in thoughts Of
the past present, and failure, star
Of Seculiar brightness attracted my
attention, and it set me to thinking
Of the grandeur of these heavenly
bodies; and, while wondering what
vas beyond them, suddenIy my
thoughts became disturbed, as the
star faded slowly cut of my sight,
leaving dark space before me.
Wondering what was thu cause,
I determined to know the reason OF
its disappearance. While waiting
for its return, | thought how desolate
would be our lives, if, like the star,
the bright things should fade away,
leaving only darkness. A. ~sa9a ~
My watching was rewarded before
long. for slowly as the star had dis.
appeared from my view, so SLOWLY
it came again TO sight, tor the cloud
which had Obscured the star had
rolled away, leaving it more bright
than before #t III
Thus it is I thought, with life
We imagine now that we see our
Fathers plans for our future, and il
seems pleasant to know what il
expected of us. but slowly the
knOwledg. of these plans depart
from our ntalyision, aud We are
left in gloom, And in our dreari
ness, we see nothing before us but
darkness, uncheered by single star
Of joy. Still, though the star OF Joy
has faded from our vision, we are
determined even in our gloom tc
await its temperance.
But the return of this st r is very
different from that of the other.
Then, we had only to look into z the
sky and patiently watch for its com
ing; but when the atar of Joy departs
from our lives. we can only bring ii
back by faithfully performing every
pres ent duty, and implicitly believ'
ing in Him, ''who doe h all things
we'll" Then, and not till then
will this beloved star return to US
to light US on our journey TO tina
land which needs not the light o
the sun, moon or stars, for the glory
of God giveth light to it.

Some time ago, Gov. Stanford,
the owner Of the horse Occident,
which was made famous from having
been bea Ell in race with the Gold
smith Maid, desired to have a pho
tograph of the animal taken while
SAID animal was going at tull speed.
Mr.. Muybridge, the artist, was ap-
piled to, but he expressed his doubts
that it could be, done. He began ex-
perimenting, however, and after a
while was able to catch objects on
the wing with great success. ,.-
A few days ago he announced to
the owner of Occident that he bellev7
ed he could keathe picture. He
procured allthe sheets to be had in
the stable, and with these made re-
fiecting back ground. Over this o.
cident was trained to trot, and every
thing was then in readiness for the
trial. The great difficulty was to
transfix an impression while the
horse was moving at the rate of thir,
ty-eight feet to the second. The first
experiment of opening and closing
the camera on the first day left no
result; the second day, with increas-
ed velocity in opening and closing.
a shadow was caught. On the third
day, the artist, having studied the
matter thoroughly, contrived to have
two boards slip past each other by
touching spring, and in 50 doing
to leave an eight of an inch opening
for the five hundreth part of 4 Sec
ond, sas the horse passed, and by an
arrangement of double lenses cross
ed, secured a negative + lat shows
Occident in full motion--a perfect
likeness of the horse. The space Of
time was SO small that the spokes of
the wheels of the suIky were caught
as If they were not in motion. This
Is probably the most wonderful sue
cess in photographing ever YET
achieved, and the artist is as proud
Of his discovery as the Governor is
OF the picture taken. San FranciS-

NEW HEELS IN OLD SOCKS
