A SHORT ROAD:

A SHORT ROAD:
BY MRS. W. W. THOMAS.
Slow toiling up the hill at close OF day,
The faithful steeds kept their accustomed pace,
The white the sturdy sun-browned yeoman
smiled
with tenderness upon u pale faced child
Beside him, and with strong arms round her
said,
While earnest gazing through tho purplng
gloom,
"Cheer up, my daughter Now, It's but short
We watched the numbering wagon as
1t wound away from sight, bearing its freight
OF love so like a mother own and lost
Within the dream OF beauty, given by
The dying day, that seemed the years last
smile,
Thought of another road that led away,
From Times dim uplands at the Mountain
= Hight
Where In Home Eternal is rePosc.
Shsrt is the road, cen though 1t lie beyond
The grief and burden OF fun three score years,
Beyond the frosts and storms that kindly fall
Upon life's eve to hide the glory and
The bloom OF earth from view. Short is the
And traversed Oft with bleeding feet while
brave
Hearts counting DER each loss and pain, look
out
Beyond their broken hopes and sadly long
The portal to uncasp OF endless calm.
There lies our destiny; where angels wait,
Where truth and goodness never fade, but God
Shall wipe away all tears. oh blessed words |!
Whose silver meaning sweetly flows adown
The track of centuries, the anchor and
Rejoicing Of so many human hearts!
When on our brow the last bright days have
shone,
Whose green trees wave in whispering winds,
whose birds 49,
Have chantcd evening gospels In the boughs-
When yearning human love avails us not
tSave but a couch to fashion In the vale y
Then, all the landmarks passed, will ind how
short
Indeed. the road that leads to Paradise.

Zebina Spaulding of Bethel says in the
Woodstock Standard that so much is said
about Jersey cows that he would like to
say something about his half blood Dur
hams. He has three, seven, Ave and two
years respectively, from which he made
forty and ne-half pounds of butter in sew
en- days, besides using milk for family of
four having hulled corn in the meantime.
He thinks if it had not been for the "hulled
corn" that the average would have been
fourteen pounds per head for the seven
DAYS.

The Picturesque in CrOckery.

In no branch OF decorative art is there
greater opening for originality and improve
ment than in that connected with the service
OF our tables. Absence of body color has been
the greatest defect in modern pottery, which
Is mostly dead white, toned against dead
white linen; or, if there is pattern, it is uni
form with the chill uniformity of silver
Happily change is gradually coming. Our
merchants import decorated dinner and
lunch and tea sets, and at the same time in
trOduce tinted wedgewoOd and majOlica in
Egyptian colors, red and black, coralline,
rich purple, and vivid green's, for entrees,
fruits, ices, salads, tartes, pickles, flowers
There is the dead glaze of Worcester pottery
covered with dull red flowers and butterflies
for tea sets, and the quaintness of Japanese

q lunch by sunlight is serious ordeal.
silver Is undeniably ugly by daylight, and
beauty Is preferable to display, glass is al
ways pretty, and the first impression upon
seeing a table so decorated is that OF fairy
land. And so NenItian and French glass
dishes and epergneS are becoming very fash
ionable. Alternate dishes of red and white
glass have an excellent effect, or pink and
white, with jugs for water at intervals. A
lovely tripod for flowers comes in cut glass

are antique jugs, pitchers jelly plates, and
nttle saucers and Ovals in glass for small cut

standards of sea monsters; the handles to
goblets and pitchers are coiled snakes. So
low in price are all these pretty things that
the simplest home can be Frightened with a

exhausted before the close of winter led old
Gottleib Hatterich, of Milwaukee, to spare
the sticks, though the thermometer ranged
p below zero, and his howell was so ricketty
that Ii afforded little comfort. Gottleib was
a miser and, when he was unable to be about
was provided for by the family of Mr.. Adolph
Sueizer, who resides near by. On Saturday
morning last Mrs. SueiZer brought him a cup
OF hot coffee and warm toast, of which he
partook. The lady offered to build him a fire

Early sunday morning IL transpired that the
wood had lasted, but that Gottleib had not.
Mrs. Sueizer called with more coffee and
toast, but was not welcomed by the old man.
He was found frozen dead. Old Gottleib
buried the funds he had not intrusted to Mrs.
Sueizer. He made the latter the custodian

in times of illness, il Is hoped he has left
