An old torn wilton sheet Of large
fashioned letter paper was lately re-

are ragged like taoseof an old book.

THE MOORLAND.s

The moorland lies a dreary waste; ts
Tue night is dark with drzz'lng rain;
In yonder yawning cave of cloud
The snaky lighting writhes With pain.
o sobbing rain, outside my door,
ssOswailing phantons, make your moan;
Go through the night in blind despair
Your shadowy lips have touched my own
No more the robin breaks its heart
os music in the path less woods!
The ravens croak for such as |,
The plovers screech above their broods.
All mournful things are friends Of mine,
That weary sonnd of failing leavesf
All, there is not kindred soul
For me on earth, but means and grieves.

The ghostly rain goes by in haste,
And, further than the eye can reach,
The moorland lies dreary waste.

The Vulgarity Of Ladies.

cleaner more sensitive and more re-
fined creature than man. It may be
so, but lady will do many things
.ich \ gentleman could not bring
himself to do There is no gentleman
in Springfield. for instance, who could
walk through Main street dragging
part of bis raiment on the ground after
him. Any gentleman would consider
himself defled by such a performance.
and probably would find himself in the
hands of policemen and arraigned be
fore commission de lunatieo. No
gentleman would care to parade the

would be constantly employed 10 reef

present time Americas gentlemen at
tach the charac'er of gambler to a
man who wears jewels and rings. and
recognize cognate vulgarity in the
lady who similarly overloads herself
on occasions when personal adornment
is not in keeping. What we mean is
that there is modesty and sobriety OF
attire aud even Of bearing among re-
cognized gentlemen with the recogniz-
ed lady has not yet attained. The mat
ter has its practical bearing in the in
te:>aurse OF men and women as stran-

protected. As they seek more and
more diverse fields of livelihood they
will be driven moro aud more to mingle
with the human race regardless Of their
sex 1t is not necessary to construct q

conclusion that the tendency OF civil

and place woman on the same footing
with man and under the necessity Of
constant intercourse with him, and un-
protected except by her own powers.
Under these circumstances it becomes
the real lady or the new lady. as VIC
may call the latest product of Ameri-
can culture and refinement, when she
is making her way in the world and
among strangers, to distinguish herself
as lady as much as possible. There
is sobriety and decorum of dress.
even of rich dress, which to the prac-
tical eye bespeaks modesty and he
dignity of worth in the wearer. The
new woman, the woman of refinement
and independence, making her way in
the world has not generally brought
her attire to represe1;: the modesty,
sobriety and culture which are hers,
nor adapted it to the serious purpose
which she has in view. -Sprinqfeld

An Irish girl who was very anxious
that her scattered brain brother should
not be refused by the den,ure young
English woman with whom be had
fallen desperately in love implored him
to try to propose with the seriousness
becoming the occasion. He vowed
solemnly that he would behave as if
he were acting as chief mourIsr at hir
fathers funeral The demure yong
lady in imitation of many Of the eoun-
try women, graciously accepted her
wild Irish lover. She, however, con
fded to her bosom friend that Ed
mund had proposed in rather an odd
way. He had taken her after church
to see the family vault, and had there,
in eepulchral voice. asked her if she
would like to lay her bones beside his
bones. This be evidently thought
was proper way to fulfil the promise
made to his sister of tresting the matter
with becoming seriousness. - London
