The Two Armies.

AS life's unending column pours,
Two marshaled hosts are seem
Two armies on the trampled shores
That death flows black between.
One marches to the drum beats roll
The wide-mouthed clarion's bray,
And bears upon crimson scroll,
"Our glory is to slay."
One moves in silence by the stream,
With sad, yet watchful eyes,
Calm as the patient planets CLEAN,
That walks the clouded skies.
Along its front no sabres shine,
No blood red pennons wave;
It's banners bears the single line,
"Our duty is to save"
For these no death beds lingering
shade;
At honor's trumpet call,
With knitted brow and lifted blade,
In glorys arms they fall.
For these no flashing falchions bright,
No stirring battle-cry;
The bloodless stabber calls by night
Each answers, Here am !"
For these the sculptor's laureled bust,
The builders marble piles,
The anthems pealinG Ger their dust
Through long cathedral aisles.
For these the blossom>sprinkled turf
That floods the lonely graves
When spring rolls in her sea>green
surf
In foworyNfoaming waves.
Two paths lead upward from below,
And angels wait above,
Who count each burning life drops
flow, ~

Her pulses freedom drew,

To sit beside the throne!

Origin of the AJs.rs of the Week
and the Months

Sunday was so called because it
was dedicated to The sun, or to its
worship.
Monday was moon day, or made
sacred to the moon.
Tuesday, from the Mars of our an
cestors, the god Of war.
Wednesday, from Wooden, the god
of the Scandinayians.
Thursday was originally dedicated
to Thor the god of thunder, an
swering to the Jove of the Romans.
Friday, from Fria, the goddess Of
marriage, equivalent to the Tartar
Juno, the wife of Odin, Or Wooden.
Saturday, from Saturn's day.
Coming now to names of the
months in common use, wo find that
January comes from Janus, an old
Italian deity, the god of the sun and
the year, to whom the month of
January was sacred. He was repre-
sented with two faces, looking in op-
posite directions. His temple at
Rome was never closed except in time
of universal peace.
February comes from the Latin
Februarius, the month of expiation
and publication, and was held by
the Romans as festival to purify.
March, from Mars, the god of war.
April, from the Latin ayoerire, to
open, as the month in which the earth
opens to receive the seed.
May, from the Latin Maius; so
named in honor of the goddess Maia
daughter of Atlas and mother of
Mercury.
June, from Juno, because it was
sacred to that goddess.
July was so called from julius, the
surname of Caius Cesar, who was
born in that month.
August, from August Caesar, on ac-
count of his victories, and his having
entered on his first consulate i'll that
month.
The other four, September, Octo-
Der, November, and December, come
from the Latin numerals, but are
misnomers as now used, because sep>
tenn means seven; octem, eight !;
novem, nine; decem, ten.

lave been carried on, on, and ON, till
the wants of the present population
have been exceeded. Building is
0Serdone. Some towns and cities
have more houses and stores than are
wanted for years. individuals, towns,
cities, states, and the United States
have incurred debts which the pies
ent generation viii not cancel, Now,
OF necessity, comes retrenchment ard
suspension Of expenses and work,
and this is the dull times about which
so much is said.
This rush OF building and extension
was a harvest time to labor. From
1863 to 1878 was a golden harvest,
and fortunate are they who so con-
sidered it and made good use OF it.
The natural result of this reaction
upon the laboring classes is, they are
not wanted at any price in certain
directions, and in such numbers.
The decline would have come
sooner, had not some extraordinary
events interposed to postpone the
day. In the spring Of 1879, there
were unmistakable opidencfs Of q
stagnation in business, wien the
German Franco war suddenly burst
fortlF. and inspired new hopes and
fresh life. into our capitalists aud
leaders of enterprise. The influence
Of this had hardly gone when the

One Cause of the "Hard Times.

One Cause of the "Hard Times"
During the past ten years, the
labor of this country has been con-
centrated in our cities and villages,
building up these and extending our
public works. Now there has been a
panic in this rush OF building; the
real grounds for extending our
capacities for doing business can be
seen and also, under recent de1ele
opments, the manner in which it has
been accomplished,
Men, with and without capital,
have extended their business, and
built themselves palatial residences,
apparently forgetful of the word
failure; manufacturers have res
modelled, enlarged their works, and
multiplied their machinery, until the
question rises like snectre, where

Harvest Home.

Into the harvest fields to- day
Singing went
Ths fields where once L met the Nav,
All flowers and scent:
And there rich Autumn, warm and
sweet,
Went laughing through the windy
wheat
In glad content.
Both hands were full of grass and
grain,
Both feet kept time
10 some low murmuring refrain,
Some breathing chime,
That blew through golden ears and
leaves
The promise of the full ripe sheaves
In quaint old rhyme:
"This is the happy harvest time:
Then cut the corn and press the wine,
Gather the sheaves, and load the vain:
And bring the 'haryest-hOme' again. +"
And was glad as glad could be
To meet her there;
80, Queen, said, "give unto me
My harvest fail
My splendid lover, strong and true,
Whose witching eyes of tender blue
My heart ensnare.
The golden corn, the ruby wine,
Is not the best:
A richer Harvest Home is mine,
Sweeter quest.
Give me my lover In his kiss
| have rounded world Of bliss;
Keep eli the rest"
