AS they hurried along the man said:
" If the snow-drift is still there we
shall never be able to get around 1T or
into it to find the boy"
"Caspar will attend to that" said the
monk.
He believed in Caspar.
And when the dog reached the snow
drift he did not try to 60 through it. He
had more sense than that. He stopped;
he seemed to be considering the matter.
Then he turned around and ran back.
The monk and the other man waited to
see what he would do. When Caspar
reached place where the bank was low
he leaped down from the road, and kept
on down the mountain. His idea was to
go around the snow-drift. Suddenly he
stopped and glared through the failing
snow-fakes that were whirled this way
and that way by the wind.
He saw something. The men, who
were following at a distance, could only
see little way through the storm.
Then, with a sudden bark, Caspar
rushed over the frozen crusts and
plunged through the deep places, bound
ing and lcaping, caring not for drift or
storm, until he found the boy!
For he was a snow-king.-4St. Nicholas

HARRY IN 4 CLOUD.
BY MARY ID. BRINE.

BY MARY ID. BRINE.
WHY, what is the matter with Harry tonight?
His eyes have lost half of their usual glad
light;
There's cloud on his brow which should
never be there
And scowl on the face which once thought
SO fair.
Well now let us sec if perchance we can trace
The cause of this poor little miserable face.
First, Harry this morning at breakfast was
late,
And raced thro' his toilet at such at quick
That his bonny brown hair, truth compels us
to say,
Was as snaried as his temper has been all this
day.
Reproofs from papa and mamma followed
And Harry felt all the more sullen and veXed.
Then bright little May looked up laughing
and said:
" Dess Hawwie dot out the wong side of de
bedi'
Well, school time arrived and our Harry, you
sec,
Was SO cross that no kiss from his mother
had he,
And perhaps for that reason things seemed to
go wrong,
And Harry was naughty the whole school
time long.
He missed all his lessons and spilled all his
ink
And worked himself up in a terrible kink.
And when he came home for the rest of the
day
He seemed to have nothing but cross things
to say.
He snarled yes" and ono" in so ugly a tone
That mamma and his sister quite left him
alone.
And so all the day nothing seemed to work
right
And Harry grew very unhappy toward night.
So this is the cause of his sorrowful face
His light heart has gone-there's stone in
its place.
He is thinking of bedtime, and what shall
he do
Without mammals kisses SO tender and true
But his proud little lips, they are SO 10th to
speak
And ask for the pardon his heart longs to
Come here, little boy, and jump up on my
knee
And Wen fight all that bad pride away, you
shall see;
Why, how can you sleep if you lie down to
night
Without an attempt to do that which is right?
There are standing beside you, my boy, do
you know,
4 good and bad spirit-now which one shall
And which one shall enter this dear little
heart
That has acted to-day such troublesome
part?
All! now that is right, there are tears in your
I know you are going to do that which is wise.
Go ask mammals pardon and soon this sweet
face
OF all this days trouble will lose every trace.
I'm glad we have found our own Harry again,
For the boy in his place gives us all SO much
pain.
And now mammals kisses come thick and
come fast,
And all the dark clouds have passed over at
last.

Disguised Female Cab-Drlyers.

A WOMAN mas recently been detected
in England who has been driving cab,
in the guise of a man, for the past ten
years. She was born, it seems, at Taun-
ton, Somerset, where her father was land
agent to n nobleman. She had Il great
liking for handling the ribbons" and
learned to drive horses while very young.
When little more than fourteen years of
age she was married to an army surgeon
by the name of Honeywell, and her
name, as a married woD.an, is Margaret
Honeywell. The two lived SO unhappily
together that at length she ran away
from home and went to London. She
there met with a woman who had former
ly been farm-servant to her father and
who had married a cabman, and, from
what she heard in regard to the cab
driving business, she resolved to earn an
independent living in that branch of in
dustry. By wearing her hair short, and
by a judicious use of clothing, she man
aged to present the appearance OF a
short, stout man. Her face being of a
masculine type, her complexion tiorid,
and she having an impeachment in her
speech caused by defective palate. con-
spired to render the illusion perfect. For
three wears in London and six in Liver
pool she piled the whip as a cab "man,"
her sex being unknown and unsupported
by all. Mrs Honeywell states that
during the time she acted as "cabby"
she saw a notice in a newspaper that her
husband had failed in business. In all
probability the public would not have
heard, for some time, of this female cab
driver, had it not been for her unfor-
tunate share in theft, which caused her
arrest and discovery.
A similar instance has occurred in
Paris. Some months ago the driver of a
cab died suddenly, and was replaced a
few days later by a quiet, delicate-look-
ing confrere, who was rather remarkable
for his civility to his customers and for
his singular unsociable and silent man
ners. The other coachmen dubbed him
Little Louis" and troubled their heads
very little about him, though, in spite of
his silence and unsociability, he was al
ways obliging, and ready to render serv-
ice to anyone. The other day poor
Little Louis" was missing from his
stand. He had fallen sick, and had been
taken to the hospital, where it was speed,
lily discovered that the quiet little coach
man was in reality a woman. 1t appears
that she was the wife of the cOachman,
who had died suddenly. Being left with
an infant few months old, she had
formed the desperate resolve of taking
her dead husbands place, and thus sup
porting herself and her child. So she
put her infant out to nurse, dOnncd male
attire, and for some months endured al!
the hardships and exposures of cab
drivers life. AT the end of that time her
child fell sick and died, and then the
poor mother broke down, too, and be-
came seriously ill. A few days of fever
and delirium in the hospital, and then
the end came, and the poor creatures
tolls and sorrows were ended. A strange,
sad little romance was this out of the
many that stud the annals of the poor of
Paris.

make money, to become forehanded'-
this is the whole of life to agricultural
multitudcs, discouraging in their num-
bers to contemplate. To them there is
no difference between living and getting
a living. Their whole life consists in get
ting living; and when their families
come back to them from their schooling,
and find that, really, this is the only pur-
suit that has any recognition under the
paternal roof, they must go away. The
boys push to the centers or the cities
and the girls follow them if they can. A
young man or young woman, raised to
the point where they apprehend the
difference between living and getting
living can never be satisfied with the
latter alone. Either the farmers chill
dren must be kept ignorant, or provision
must be made for their social wants.
Brains and hearts need food and clothing
as well as bodies; and those who have
learned to recognize brains and hearts
as the best and most important part of
their personal possessions will go where
they can find the ministry they need.
What is the remedy? How shall farm
ers manage to keep their children near
them? How can we discourage the in
flux of unnecessary-nay, burdensome-
populations into the cities? We answer:
BY making agricultural society attract
I've. FIJI the farm houses with perlOul-
Gals and books. Establish central read
ing rooms, or neighborhood clubs. En-
courage the social meetings of the
young. Have concerts, lectures, anna
teur dramatic associations. Establish
a bright, active, social life, that shall
give some significance to labor. Above
all, build, as far as possible, in villages.
II is better to go a mile to ones daily
labor than to place ones self mile
away from a neighbor. The isolation
of American farm life is the great curse
of that life, and it falls upon the women
with hardship that the men cannot APP
preciatc, and drives the educated young
away-Dr. j. g. Holland, an Scrtbner's

The Chign0n.

THE reign of the chignon is over; its
glory has departed; its name is Ichabod.
No more do the fields of the far Indies
send their long fibers, which Hindoo
women sit in the sun and spin, to coun-
terfeit the browning charm of woman.
The anathema has gone out against the
bravery of the cauls and the round tires
like the moon, against the head bands
and wimples and crisping pins. 1t has
been pronounced anew that instead of
well-set hair there shall be badness, and
burning Instead of beauty"
The chignOn was the open foe of
poetry and romance, as all artificial
things are that have not in their construc-
ton the elements of beauty. 1t was
born of hard era, where everything
was being reduced to the commonplace
level of money-making and the display
of money, an era that would have as
sured us that money was so omnipotent
it could even purchase the bloom of
beauty and make it transferable. But
the long and silky hair itself, in its native
grace and simplicity, belongs to poetry,
is one of its haunts, indeed, for it loves
to linger in its perfumed locks and to do
homage to its compelling charm; paint
ers have painted it, poets have sung of
it, the curious have preserved it, till one,
looking on the golden head of LucreZia
Borgia's hair, feels all the splendor, the
temptation, the luxury, the crime of
that Italian age that produced her; or
touching silken lock of Keats feels the
sweet nature throbbing with the love of
beauty beyond it's power to bear, as
if some shepherd lad had met the sun
god on the mountain-side and died Of the
glory; or holding dark, soft lock of
Byron's hair, finest and most lustrous,
sees as if in a vision the passion and the
power that lifted him on strong wings
out of soil and slime and among the gods
themselves. "Only woman's hair"
wrote Swift upon a lock of poor Stella's,
and the world has ever since reviled him
for heartless wretch, never pausing to
think whether it was not the very depth
of tenderness and sorrow hooking at it
self. AS though one said, "Only a
woman's hair nothing, nothing to you
but once it was all the world to mer
Let us be thankful, then, that at last
the right to wear our hair as it grows, and
as it is remembered of most OF the wom-
en- of history, has come back to US; that
natural braids and curls in supple deli
cacy instead of cumbrOus clumsiness are
finding their way out from beneath the
mass of rubbish that hid them; that
once more we may be picturesque, and
even sentimental if we will, and need no
longer present the appearance, it'll our
tucked-up skirts and huge capital struct
ures, of costermongers' women crowned
with baskets of their wares. Let us be
glad that the day of the chignon is over

The amount of deterioration which
coal undergoes when long exposed I'M
protected to the air and dampncss has
recently been investigated by Warren
strass. He found that in many cases the
loss due to oxidation and development
of gases, which form the most valuable
parts of the coal, amounted to one-third
Of the original weight, while in this case
the caloric or heating power of the coal
little as AZ per cent. of the original heat
ing power. The same coal kept under Il
shed protecting it against the rain lost
much less, while when placed in "A closed
warehouse, but exposed to the air, it lost
in the same time scarcely p per cent. of
gas and 10 per cent. of the caloric power.
He found further that in general btu
minous coal changes more rapidly than
anthracite.

LIKE 4 CHILD.
By LOUISE CHANDLER Mou LION.

By LOUISE CHANDLER MOU LION.
PLAYING there in the sun,
Chasing the butterflies,
Catching his golden toy,
Holding it fast till it dies;
Singing to match the birds,
Calling the robins at will,
CHANGING here and there,
Never a moment still
Like child
Going to school, at last,
Learning to read and write, %
Puzzled over his slate,
Busy from morn till night;
Striving to win prize,
Careless when it Is won,
Finding his joy in the strife,
Not in the thing that's done.
Busy in eager trade,
Buying and selling again,
Chasing golden prize,
Glad of q transient gain;
Always beginning anew,
Never the long task DER,
just as it used to be
The butterfly before.
Seeking q woman's heart.
Winning it for his own,
Then, too busy for love,
Letting it turn TO stone.
Sure 81 his plighted truth,
What more had a wife to ask?
Is he not doing for her
Each day his daily task?
A child, to pine and complaint,
A child, to grow SO pale!
For want of some foolish words
Shall a woman's faith fail.
Words. he said them once
What need Of anything more?
Does one who has entered n room
Go back and wait at the door?
Baby Mary and Kate
Never can climb his knee;
Motherly arms are open
Father is busy, you see."
Too busy to stop to hear
A babble of broken talk
To mend the jumping jack,
Or make the new doll walk.
So busy that when death comes,
He pleads for little delay,
II not to finish his work,
At least q word to say
A word to wife and child,
A sentence to tell the truth,
That he loves them new, at last,
With the passionate heart of youth.
The kisses of Death are cold,
And they turn his lips to stone;
Out Of the warm, bright world
The man goes all alone.
Do angels wait for him there,
Over the soundless sea?
He goes, as he came, helpless wight,
To new worlds mystery
Like a child.
