ABSENT-MINDEDNESS AN I'D
MENTAL POWER.

1t is worthy of notice that growth
of the mind is often accompanied
ny an apparent loss of power in par-
tlcular respects and this fact is OK
ceed'ngIy important, especially to
all who desire to estimate the con-
dition of thoro own mind. The
mental phenomenon called mot very
correctly absence of mind is often
regarded by the person experiencing
1T, and still more by those who OBJ
serve it in him as proof of failing
powers. But it often, if not gcncr
ally accompanies the increase of
mental power. Ne on displayed
absence ofmind much more frequent
~, and to II much more marked de.
gree, when his powers were at
their highest than in his youth, and
not only did instanoos become
much less frequent when he was at
al advanced age, but the opposite
quality, sensitivoncss to small an
noyanco, began then to be display
ed Even an apparent impairment
OF the memory is not necessarily
indicative of failing mental powers,
since it is often the result of an
increased concentration of the at
tention on subjects specially calling
for the exercise of tho highest forms
OF mental power as analysis, com.
parlson, generalization, and judg-
ment. L have alreadynotod that pro
found thinkers often refrain from
exercising tho memory, simply to
avoid the distraction of h ell
thoughts from the main subject OF
their study. But this statement
may be extended into the general
rcmark that the most profound
students whether ofphysical science
mathematics, history, politics, or
in fine, Of any difficult subject ot
research, are apt to give the memo
ry less exercise than shallow think,
ers. OF course, the memory is OK
erted to considerable degree, oven
in the marshaling of thoughts be-
fore the theories can be formed OF
weighed. But the greater part OF
the mental action devoted to the
formation or discussion of theories
is only indirectly dependent upon
the exercise Of memory.

A RECENT MIRAGE AS SEEN FROM
DENvEn.-Tho mirage is frequently
seen Oh the plains, and often, in the
early days when people travelled
with oXteams, it presented to tho
weary, exhausted and thirsty gold
seeker the appearance Of water, ap-
pcarantly within easy reach, yet,
alas, IL dclusion and snare, that led
astray, disappointed and disguised
everybody. But probably the most
perfect, picturesque picture, in the
line OF optical illusion, ever seen in
these parts, by either old-timcr or
newcomer, appeared, last evening
" little before sundown. A double
or reversed image of the Rocky
mountains, from Mount Vernon to
the Cache-la-Poudrc, and from the
foothills back to the grandest peaks
was suspended in the mir on the east
of the city, and apparently just be-
yond the outermost houses. The
refraction was SO perfect that the
few who saw tho image was actual
~ puzzled to distinguish between
the real and the fictitious mountains.
The lovely, but unsubstantial pic
ture, with its heaped up beauties in
endless variety was quickly dissi-
pated, the white turban on Lrng's
peak being the last object to
vanish.

SELECTED Story.
From Our Preside Friend.
WHAT CAN WOMEN DO ?
BY MRS. 4. NJ. FREEMAN.

Solomon Brown had five daugh-
terR- The oldest of these was twenty
the youngest seventeen In some
OF the heathen countries it is con
sidered u misfortune when II girl is
born. Solomon Browns mind may
have been colorcd with this hcathen-
lsm-though he owned q pew in
the church, and contributed con-
scientiously to tho donations-for
he shook his head in solemn disap-
proval as his family increased, de-
claring that girls were, and had
been since the world began, a fail
IRE.
Dear little Mrs. Brown emphati-
cally declared hor slepticism as to
this broad assertion, saying with
some spirit, "that the girls could
not be dispensed with, and as the
great Father had seen fit to create
them, it must have been with the
consciousness that they might be
pronounced good. OF course they
werc good" She would just ask
N[r. Brown, what there was, that
might be said truthfully, in dispar-
agement of their own children?
IF they were boys, Lucy" says
Brown, footing up dry goods bill,
'they would be sclf-supporting. IT,
for instance, Matilda had been
named Solomon--and, you know,
that name has fallen to the eldest
in our family for gencrations-shc,
or he rather, might have learned q
trade, and would now be able, not
only to care for himself, but to ren.
der needful assistance to the family.
L am sure, T never blamed Betsey
Trotwood, though I didn't under
stand her, that she couldnt forgive
David for moi being a girl. I have
.rever forgiven one of my girls that
they disappointed me-.
Dear me, Solomon, Tin sure the
girls are doing tho best they can.
Matilda is very good dress maker
"Bosh II" cries Solomon, ilnpa-
tiently, "the country is over run
with dress makers. T tell you all
, this feathers, fuss and Aummerry is
running us~-that is tho people.
Don't you understand every addi-
tional girl is an additional burden
Ito some one? How much do you
suppose, Lucy, paid out for rib.
bons last year? Only one hundred
dollars q
'But, my husband, there were
five. of tho girls you know, not
counting myself, and that makes
twenty dollars only, for each. l ON
sure that isn't extravagant at all
There's deacon Smart's Sallie paid
that much for ono Roman sash
Our girls are worry handy about
turning their things, and fixing
8 them up as good as new. There
were only twenty.four yards in the
dears' dresses this spring-that il

REASONING IN HARE.

! The following circumstance was
related by II respectable farmer as
happening within his own obseryn
ton, and in illustration of it's truth
it may be proper to remark that in
the country where it happencd-in
Cornwall-the hills, which are steep,
rise SO abruptly and near to each
other that whatever passes on the
side of one may be easily disrcrnrd
on the other. His attention was first
drawn to II hare, which he pcrcGiv-
cl running down Il slope, close to
the hedge i'll n field Of tn: :nips, and
soon afterwards he perceived that
IN pursuit Of her were II couple of
dogs. AS the dogs entered the field
nc saw that the hare stopped for IL
moment and lifted her ears. The
pursucrs pressed on, but when they
had come within little more than
gnnshot of their hope for prey, the
hare stopped, and then ran back
for some distance along its former
track, when by sudden spring it
threw itself on one side into the
midst of the tr,rnips, and there re-
manned crouchcd and still. The
dogs passed onward in their course
Mt rapid rate; and as soon as they
had passed forward on it's track
with another bound the hare sprunp
back to the place it hud quittod,
and ran along the course by which
it had come down, with the evident
intention Of confoundmg together
its upward and downward course.
BY this time the dogs had come to
the lower extent to which the hare
proceeded, and there they stopped
as not knowing what further course
to take. 1t was thus the pcrsocu
ted creature secured it's own safety ::
and my informant wus too generous
to help them out of the difficulty.

There is no death! The Stars so down
To rise upon some taircr shore;
And bright in heavens jcwclcd crown
They shine for eve, more.
There is no death The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer show
crS,
To golden grain or mellow fruit.
Or rAinbow-tiutcd flowers.
The granite rocks diSOrgunizc
10 feed the hungry moss they bear;
The forest trees drink daily life
From out the yicwlcss air.
There is no death The leaves may fall
The flowers may fade and pass away;
They only wait through wintry hours,
The coming Of the May.
There is no death An angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread;
lie bears our best beloved thugs away,
And then we call them "dcad."
lie leaves our hearts all dcsolatc,
lie plucks our farcst, sweetest flowers;
TranSplnntcd into bliss they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The blrG-likc voice, whose joyous tone.
Made glad these scenes Of sin and strife,
Sings now an everlasting song,
Amid the tree Of life
And where lie secs Il smile too bright,
Or heart too pure for taint and vice,
lilo bears 1t to that world of light,
10 dwell in Paradise.
Born into thnt undying life.
They leave us but to como again;
With JOY we welcome them-lhc same,
Except in sin and pain.
And ever near W., though unseen,
The dear Immortal spirits tread;
For NIL the boun1lcss universe
Is life--thcrc is 10 "demd!"
