FAN0Ts MASQUERADE

WANDERING sunny meadows o'or,
Came a pretty child to me,
And q golden bow he bore,
While as bllthe Ms any bee
Rang his voice across the lea,
Follow, follow, follow meW
Who, then, art thou, dear, my childS
Sure, I've seen that shining bow;
But that laughter, sweet and wild,
Sounds not like the voice know.
That is ever sweet and low
Follow, follow, where Igor
"I am Love, thy lord and king,
See you not my arrows herep
Harkl their bar6ed pointlcts ring
In my quiyer crystal-clear.
Come, II Love 10 thee be dear,
Follow, follow, all that hearW
"sweet my child, I know thee now;
Thou art Fancy, fair and freel
Thou msyst mask that sunny brow,
But thy rainbow wings | sec.
Vain thy masking, dear, for me,
Well know true Love from thee!
lie hath eyes rs bright as thine,
But they wear q softer sheen,
And q sadness half divine
Wells the sweetness of his micn;
Yes, whoe'er his face has seen
Knoweib It from thine, ween.
All the voices of the efrth
Call him excellent and great,
But grief, hand in nand with inirth,
Still doth on his footsteps wait,
And the shadowy wings Of fate
Darken DER his royal statcl
"0n his left hand and his right
Pain and pleasure ever 90;
And before his eyes the sight
OF the anguish and the woe
That his dearest ones must know
Maketh still his laughter lowl
"Vain thy petty masquerade,
Fancy heetl on Love alone
Can those constant carts be stayed
That have once his secrets known;
When thy facile wings have flown,
His sway has but stronger grownw

g Powder Tea.N

THE Pal Mall Gazette has the following:
Something new to drink is one of the
chief requirements of the day, and it
might be worth the consideration of en-.
terprising tea-dealers to import some
powder tea,' which, according to Consul
Robertson, in his report to the trade of
Kanagwa, just issued, is esteemed a
great luxury by the Japanese. This tea
of two kinds, known as 'kiocha' and
'usucha,' is made from very old shrubs
selected from the best grounds or planta-
tions. These shrubs are very freely
manured some ten times in the year for
kiocha' and some six times for usucha.
About the end of March the shrubs are
surrounded on all sides in addition to be-
ing covered with bamboo screen.work,
so as to protect them from the frost.
This screen-work is removed as soon as
summer has we'll set in. When the
leaves have been picked they are
steamed for about half minute, spread
out on the mating and cooled. Then
follows the same process as with oIdi-
nary tea-namely, firing first over quick,
then over slow fire, the only difference
being that the leaves are turned about
with a stick, and not with the hand.
When about half dried the leaves are
placed on trays and dried gradually be-
fore light fire, after which they are
passed through bamboo selves; finally
they are spread out on sheets of paper,
each leaf being picked out singly. Great
care is shown in the mode of storage OF
this particular kind of tea. The leaves
are placed in tin or white-metal jars,
which again are inclosed in wooden
boxes and packed with a certain guam
tity of common leaf. This preserves
the scent and flavor for a long time.
When about to be used for drinking a
sufficient quantity is taken out of the
metal jar, placed in a small hand tea-mill,
and slowly ground into very fine
powder. This powder is then removed
with feather and placed in an air-tight
jar. Boiling water is then got ready,
and, when just at boiling point, about
one.quarter of an ounce of powder is
put into teacup aud boiling water
poured on to suit taste. The whole is
then rapidly stirred with bamboo stick
especially made for the purpose until a
good froth is produced, when the tea is
ready for drinking. Much ceremony is
observed in the drinking of this particu.
lar tea"

The blood being the source from which our
systems are built up and from which we de-
| rive our mental as well as our physical capa-
biiities, how important that it should be kept
pure? II 1t contains vile, fostering poisons
| all organic functions are weakened thereby.
Settling upon important organs, as the lungs,

blood in perfectly healthy condition, and
more especially does this apply at this partic-
ular season of the year than at any other. No

does he SO recommend it; on the contrary

claim is this: That there is but one form OF
blood disease that it will not cure, and that
| disease is cancer. He does not recommend
his Discovery for that disease, yet he knoWs
it to be the most searching blood cleanser yet
discovered, and that it viii free the blood and
system of ell other known blood poisons, be
they animal, vegetable or mineral. The
Golden Discovery is warranted by him to cure
the worst forms Of Skin Diseases, as all forms

still standing against the prices offered by

Whatever the ideas entertained by labor
reformers As to the action Of the Cincin-
natl Conference, there can be but one
opinion when We come to choose between
gigantic monopolies and .monied despotsms
on the one side, and anti monopoly, law
int rest and legal tender greenbacks on
the other. 1t is to be hoped that the
greenback movement will disintegrate and
break up the existing parties, and usher
il new principles and policies. 1t ls Ger
tam that nothing is to be hoped for from
The old parties aud their fossilized polIti-
Clans. During the long reign of republic
ism, every thing has been done for capital
and nothing for labor, and it is not to be
supposed that the democratic politicians
would have done any better for the people.
When the democracy has proclaimed the
greenback issue, ,hev have done It IN OPP
position to, and in despite OF their poll
tlcians. 1t seems as If a victory Tor the

interest as tailors.
The meeting partook more of conversa-

the course Of the meeting. Mr. Murphy, Of

was listened to very attentively, and elected
a good deal of applause

The German Savings Bank.

We again call attention to the admirable
management Of this institution. Through
the discreet and judicious investments of the
funds placed at their disposal the directors
have been enabled to secure to their deposi-
tors regular ard increasing dividend upon
all deposits, fact which in these panicky
times speaks volumes in their favor We
would advise our people who have any sur
plus funds on hand to avail themselves Of
the opportunity which this institution offers
them. They must remember that under
our present financial system, interest is the
key that unlocks the doors to fortune, and
the only way our working people can obtain
interest on small amounts is through the
Savings Institutions.

Gated, being on Fifth avenue, near Randolph
