Castles in the Air.

A wonderful palace is building:
The bricks are of molten gold,
Caught when the clouds OF sunset
Their yellow glory unfold,
Bright as the hue of the rainbow
Turret and bastion STAND,
And hope is the strong foundation
OF this palace in fairy land.
The windows are crystaled dew-drops,
Pieced together with care,
And it shines like a mine of diamonds,
This castle built in air.
Royal and rich are the hangings,
Draped with satin the walls
Merry and sweet is the music
That echoes throughout the halls.
Never sound of weeping,
Never thought Of sin,
Nothing that speaks of sorrow,
Shall enter its gates within;
Never shadow of dark ness,
Never The giant despair,
Shall dare to enter the castle,
The castle built of air.
And two shall dwell in the castle,
And the joy of lite shall be
To keep it as free from evil
AS fairy palace can be.
They will dwell in the airy fabric,
Faithful and fond and good,
And bind on the gold escutcheon
Two monsters from the wood.
These warders will guard the portal,
While bear and forbear are there,
No harm can reach the castle,
The castle in the air.

HOWE LESSONS The banes Of domes-
tic life are lttlencss, fhsity, vulgarity,
harshness, scolding, moderation, an in
cessant issuing of superauous prohibi-
tons and orders, which are regarded as
impairment interior noes with the gen
eral liberty and reposc, and are provoca-
tive ofranklng aud explosive sentiments.
The blessed antidotes that sweeten and
enrich domestic life are refinement, high
aims, great interests, soft voices, quiet
and gentle manners. magnanimous tenn
pers, forbearance from all unnecessary
commands of dictation, and general
allowances Of nutual freedom. Love
makes obedience lighter than liberty.
Man wears noble allegiance, not as n
collar but as a garland. The graces are
never so lovely as when waiting on the
virtues; and where they thus dwell to-
gethcr, they make heavenly home.

NOTICE TO STREET CONTRACTORS.
Chief Engineer Hoxie has sent notices to
all the street contractors stating the imper-
feet character of their work and the condi-
ton of the streets paved with wood and con-
crete. and that If the work of repair be not
completed, II will be done by the engineers
office and the cost charged to them. This Is
to be strictly enforced in all cases. There are
about seventy-nve of them.
WORK ORDERED
FOot-walks have been ordered and parking
directed TO be done on Rhode Island avenue,
between eth and 9Th streets; and 10 and 18th,
and eth ard Boundary streets; also, man.
holes al the corner of G and 7th streets north
east, same at intersection of g and sth streets
streets northeast and the laying of q Pinch
pipe sewer on G, between sth and 9th streets
northeast. Complaints having been made
of the practice Of the contractor for sweeping
the streets In dropping dirt on G, between
14th and 18th streets southwest, Chief Engi-
Deer Hoxie has rotified him to discontinue
the practice and remove the dirt. Two gas
lamps have been ordered on Washington
street. Georgetown, at the Canal bridge.
CONFERENCE WITH HEALTH OFFICERS.
Messrs. Bliss and LangstOn of the Board of
Health were before the District Commission
ers to-day TO confer upon several matters.
They stated that the Board of Health are
constantly receiving complaints about the
filling up of the wells and the neglect of the
officers whose duty 1t is to repair pumps.
Another matter OF complaint is the dirty
condition of cutters in streets and alleys.
AnOtner is the failure OF the parties whose
duty IL is TO clear out sewer traps. to attend
properly to that duty, whereby the air is
poisoned with offensive eifiuvia. Another
subject of much complaint is the condition
OF a sewer on Louisiana avenue, between 9th
and 10th streets, which runs under private
lots, and for some distance is open, never
having been covered. This subject is to have
prompt attention by the District author
tiles. Another matter which gave the board
much trouble is the her,iing of domestic
animals on the public squares and private
lots, which has become a nuisance over
which the Board of Health has no control.
1nasmuch as these animals are not at large
having boys or women, and sometimes men,
TO guard them. They ask the District Com
missioners to interpose by an order for a
remedy OF this evil The subject of the ex-
tension of the b street sewer beyond 18th
street northwest was then laid before the
Commissioners, DIR. Bliss stating that II
continued as at present il would lead to Sc
rious results, as the focal matter is dis
charged all over the KidwelI meadows at
high tide, to ferment at low tide, and diffuse
poison in the air. The Commissioners lis
tened TO these matters, and some were re-
ferred to subordinate officials, and upon
some others they asked of the Health Board
communication in writing for considera-
t1on. Among the latter were the subjects of
the herding and grazing of cattle and the ex-
tension of the b street sewer.

on to the bow Of the eight, and then dived
after the man, who had gone down the sec
