an old Physicians effort to produce, for his

4 Promising Pupil.

Some years ago benevolent lady
of this city took little negro girl in
to her family. Intending to give her
very thorough moral and religious
training. Unfortunately, the child
was much given to lying; and though
the mistress strove necessarily by pre-
cept and example to eradicate this
vice, her efforts were far from success
full. One day, returning home after
some hours absence the lady was met
at the door by her sable handmade,
who, with many tears, informed her
that she had broken very valuable
china pitcher, an heirloom in the
family.
Here was light in the darkness at
last, strict truthfulness in the face Of
reprimand or punishment, and the
good mistress was delighted. Such
an opportunity to reward and strength
en- virtue must not be lost so the la
dy magnanimously forgot her annoy.

blow out the candle. After fruitless
efforts to induce some one to get up,
the Judge proposed that they should
put it out by splitting at it. 4 can

cold weather and the dirty floor were

After Years.

Where once We walked together
walked again to-day.
And shadow from beside me
Went with me all the way
A hand that was white and slender
Held mine in close embrace,
And eyes that were true and tender
Were lifted to my face.
Yet mine were the only footsteps
That rustled in the leaves,
For the other form was airy
AS the mist that twilight weaves.
And never word was spoken,
And never whisper heard,
But thrill, like strain of music,
Through all my being stirred;
And down in my heart an echo
Went singing to and fro,
And the words it breathcd had in them
A tone Of long ago
OF time when the summer sunset
Empurpled all the land,
And adown the shady yistas
We wandered, hand in hand,
With never thought Of sorrow
And never dream Of fears.
All, little we guessed the burden
OF all the coming years
Or that, over the mystic river
should stretch my empty hands,
And only the waves could answer
As they whispered to the sands.
But at last, from out the silence.
have now sweet reply;
When the sunset gold and crimson
Fades from ont the western sky,
Then presence walks be side me,
And voice within my heart
Murmurs, "They who love 80 truly
Even that river cannot part"

Dress Material.

!, seems TO be settling down to GER
,.;n,v that the brocaded imaterials are
20 ne the height of the mode. not only IN
damask and wool stuffs, but in silk as
we'll. Black imported costumes come al
most entirely with brocade over-dress,
and more especially when the over-dress
assumes the form of polonaise. Some
times il is a leaf or flower which is bro
caded upon the silk, then again it is the
tiny scale pattern. But, whichever it is.
It is made over the costume or gros-grain
for petticoat, and trimmed with lace or
fringe. sometimes with both. They are
cut in close habit fashion, with the favor
lie Marguerite back, and usually have
sashes ending where the drapery is joined
Black silks for dinner parties are some
times brocaded in ecru, and have the loops
bows and ends of plain silk lined with &C.
ru. Cream and brown are also used in
connection with black in brOcadng and
trimming. Most of the dresses are made
in the princesse style and trimmed with
silk galloon in elaborate patterns. For
Young ladies. cardinal red is used in con-
nection with black silk as lining to bows,
etc. There is a great tendency TO decided
coIoring with brilliant and picturesqe eff
favor, and has brought other rich
shades into notice-such as myrtle
green, dark blue, plum and damson
Even the browns are warm, living shades
with sunshine and fire running through
them, rather than the earth orxdead-leaf
brown. The seal and beige browns are
the favorite shades. The wool brocades
come in lighter textures, and may be
used in combination with velvet, silk or
plain wool of the dark shade, although the
silk is decidedly preferred as basis.
Cheney Brothers are making specially OF
the costume Of colored silks, and there is
no doubt that for real wear and service
the American silk of this brand is the best
for the combination of costume. better
quality of silk can be got for the same
price, and SO great has been the improve
lnent in the manufacture of these silks
that they can scarcely be told from the
imported article. They have lost the

and are now what they should be, soft,
