Not a Poor Mans Land.

A private letter from citizen of So
lano county, California, to friend in
Illinois, contains the following: "You
ask me about the propriety Of laboring
men moving to California. As COM
mon-place remark, will say that it is
great big country--lots of territory
the choice pieces of which are in the
hands of farmers or spectators. AS
result, farming does not pay at the
present time. 1t is almost wholly cereal
country, and the raising of wheat. does
not pay. Millions of bushels are on
hand now, for which there is no market.
We grow plenty of fruit, but that is
perishable and can't be exported. La
borers' wages here on farms range from
$50 to $40 per month, with board; but
O man must be skilled teamster or
plowman to command $40. They plow
with gangs-three or four plows fastened
together-using six or eight horses in
the team. One who can manage one of
these teams can command $50 and $40 per
month. Common hands, owing to the
Chinese, who are very apt at all light
work where no animals are to be ham
died, can only realize $50 to S25 per
menth. would not advise any poor
man at the East to leave $50 or $25 per
month to come to California. We are
situated thus: The Greeks, Italians,
Portuguese aud Chinese do our fishing,
the Portuguese and Chinese our garden
ing, Irish girls and Chinese our house
work AMI washing. the Mexicans our
shepherding, the jews our storekeepiug,
the Changers our big farming, and the
Americans our railroading, boating,
speculating, banking, ETC., and, together
with the Irish, talk politics and hold the

Pacific Coast Shin.Building.

Ship-building is going on with un-
abated activity on the Pacific coast, quite
a number being already on the stocks.
In 1875 a feet of sixty vessels was
launched aggregating 900 tons. The
great majority OF those already out are
engaged in trade with Mexico, Central
America, the Pacific islands, the fish
cries and domestic Pacific ports. The
more important features are the speed,
strength and endurance shown by near.

had been when he began.

with laugh at her surprise, "but for
accounts. I won it to please grand
father, because, after all, he was very
good to put me to school, though he will
not personally notice either of us. 1t is
almost like giving me fortune, isn't it 1?
and therefore better than If he asked me
to his house, although that would show
he had forgiven my father for-settling
here"
"Almost a fortune-yes," she an
swers, gravely stroking his brown curls.
"But try to think less of being rich than
of being good and true-hearted, my own
child"
81 do, mother" he says earnestly,
"only I talk more of the one. And
when I think things over, neither, I feel
sure that mans occupation need make
no difference. My father had nothing
harder to battle with than the ignorance
of lot of boys who, after all, loved him,
and tried to please him but may be
just as good man battling with the
world-which seems so far from us, and
30 unreal to us yet-as he was in this
dear little quiet nook. Don't you feel
this, mother9"
Yes, she feels it. Small as her know
ledge is, she knows of One who walked
unspotted through the world and poor
as she may be, she is rich in her great
trust in Him.
The sunset light is dying now, and the
pother and son sit watching it, in a
silence which is sweet with love and
sympathy-and when those, fair, pink
clouds fade and vanish from above the
sea, they rise and go into the cottage to-
gether.

earns what he has earned at first.
"And 30" he writes, little sadly now,
the home with you is still out of my
reach, for poverty here, mother, would
be to you hundred times worse than
poverty at home."
When he has been absent for year
he comes home to spend his birthday
with his mother: summer day which
they have spent together for all the
eighteen years of David's life. Then
he goes back to his work, still hopeful
of the rise which his earnest and untir-
ing servitude is 70 win.
Six months pass, and then, one Sun
day night, David walks Unexpectedly
into he cottage kitchen, where his
mother sits beside the fire, softly sing
ing to herself hymn which she has
heard in church that day. When she
starts up-her face, in that moment OF
surprise, white as death-David sees
how little able she is to bear any shock
where he is concerned. But her delight,
one minute afterward, makes up for all,
and that Sunday night is one which both
will love to remember.
"Can you not stay one day." the
mother pleads. "Must you really go
back tomorrow, Davy?"
To-day you mean, mother. Look,
we have chatted till after midnight,
already. Never mind, we have four
whole hours more, thanks to the new
railway. Don't go to bed, mother 1
cannot spare you for that time"
She has never thought of leaving him !;
so beside the cheerful fire they sit and
talk first of the lives which they have
separately led, and then of that life
which they are presently to lead to-
gether-for David has come home on
purpose to bring joyful tidings. The
long-talked of home will be ready soon,
for he is earning high salary now, and
all the old bright plans are to be carried
out.
"But, Davy," Mrs. Sullivan says,
when she rises to at last to prepare the
early breakfast, show Veyy hard you
must be working only to be spared for
one day, after whole twelve months of
service |"
CT could have had one holiday be-
tween," he answers, "but l would not
take it. It was wiser not, mother, as
this is an expensive journey, even now
that we have the railway"
"And you have been sending me
your money, David.
"But I am earning so much now," the
young man says, with q bright excite
ment in his eyes.
"And are you happy, David 2"
every happy, Notwithstanding how
soon everything will be as planned it
long ago."
"But for yourself alone, are you hap
py, dear?" she asks wistfully.
"I!" Oh yes, mother, quite happy"
Another good-by-" But the last, "
David says, as again and again he kisses
his mothers shaking lips.

FLEETING JOYS.

Time goes in for funny freaks,
Mans toy he likes 10 play with;
Notice how he lines our cheeks,
Mark what glee he makes us gray with.
Pleasure comes TO soothe our hearts;
Often, like the rose, tis prickly;
Soon its radiance departs
Happy moments vanish quickly!
supposing you, by fate's decree,
Love girl and long to greet her,
Don't the minutes seem to be
Leaden-winged until you meet her?
When the hour arrives at last,
And all care away you Danish,
Then the tyrant travels fast
Happy moments quickly vanish!
Here upon this earthly ball
Joy awhile will make us gayer,
But when sorrow gives q call
Oftentimes'sh proves "stayer."
Hope, thou swiftly oldest on
Fragrant are the flowers thou pickest
Soon, alas, their bloom is gone
Happy moments ny the quickest!
Never mind, we needn't groan;
Tear-drops, showerlike, refresh us;
After all, we're bound to own
Joy is like q neutrality-suspicious..
Cast away regrets and sighs.
Though our cares beset us thiekly,
Happy moments let us prize,
Even though they vanish quickly!

CHAPTER III.
"AH, POOR HUMANITY !"


David had said that he would spend
his birthday at home-that June day
which has always been the one holiday
of the year to the widowed mother-but
on the morning before arrives letter
which tells her that he is obliged to de-
lay his coming. London is very full, he
says, and he is very busy ; so he cannot
get that days holiday.
In every line of this letter the mother
can read his disappointment, as well as
the sorrow it gives him to disappoint
her aud tears come and blot out the
loving words, as well as the proud de-
scriptions of the home which is all ready
for her now, out in one of the pleasant
northern suburbs. They blot out even
that simple request at the end" Think
of me more than ever tomorrow,
mother, and pray for me just at night
fall at that very hour when we have
been used to sit together in the porch on
other happy birthday nights.
There is the present of money which
most letters bring her now, and it is
while she holds this money in her hand
that she forms sudden resolution,
which comes to her at that moment as 80
natural one that she wonders where il
has been hidden before.
She is on her way from the village
postoffice when the plan suggests itself,
and when she reaches home Cher steps
quicken in the new excitement) she sits
down in her old seat on the porch and
makes it all clear to herself. David is
working very hard, and is to be lonely

him. All how his face will brighten
when he sees his mother come in How
he will start up with outstretched arms to

for any trouble she may have in reach
ing him.
When once the resolution is formed
it holds her tenaciously, and she begins
her preparations at once, glad and ex-
cited as q child. She packs her basket,
putting in chicken and butter and eggs
and cream, because David has said that
he never enjoys these things in London
as he does at home; and she smiles as
she ties dainty white cloth over them
all; for she is picturing her boys de-
light when he shall unpack these luxu-
ries which she has brought him from
his own village. All that night she lies
awake, yet rises brisk and active, almost

CHAPTER ii.
"FOR HER DEAR SAKE"

The first vacation of David's has
passed like dream to his mother, and
now that the last day has arrived, she
feels as if only a week had sped, though
she had so regretfully and hungrily
counted (each morning and each night
both the days that have been spent and
spent and those that are to come.
Another long absence follows; anoth-
er bright homecoming (in the frosty
Christmas darkness now); another alb
sence; and 80 on, and on, and on, until
David comes home from school for the
last time of all.
He meets his mother just within the
porch, where the flowers bloom that
summer as they have bloomed through
every summer of his life, and he has no
cloud upon his face. But, later
on, his mothers anxious question is an
swered little sadly.
"Yes, mother; heard from the law
yer yesterday. Grandfather's will does
not mention either of us. He has given
me all the help he meant to give. Well,
he has been very good, and now / am
ready to make my own start in the world.
But I must go at once. One delicious
day with you here, then fer London |
Don't look 30 sad, my mother; this shall
not be long separation; not even SO
long as the old school terms, for I will
soon come back to fetch you"
So after this one day he goes, laugh
ing over his scanty purse, because his
hands are strong. he says, and his for
tune, hope and courage. But when he
looks back, it is only through mist of
tears that he can see the little cottage
where he leaves his mother in her loneh-
ness.
After David's departure the days pass
for Mrs. SulEvan just as the old school
days have done, except that now she has
