a modest maiden, yet wise,
Win chestnut hair and hazel eyes,
Whose glance one always liked to meet.
90 oeep lts gaze, so calm and sweet;
Clear beaming with quiet gladness,
Subdued as by an unknown sadness;
Too truftsul in its holy love
For aught than purer worlds above.
A low, broad brow, with dreamy thought
And noble aspirations fraught,
A subtle mingling in the whole
" earthly clay and heavenly soul.
A face, that meet it where might, Z.
In joy to-day. in woe tonight,
Would cause (and why cannot tell)
The hot tears to my eyes to swell
Twas so, one day she crossed nv path.
half believed her not of earth
So sweet that wistful gaze: in vain
turned away, for look again
must: and then knew too well
ny that, in which cen lay the spell,
Ihat hidden something told too true,
mat ne'er in heavenly gardens grew,
AS yet, this blossom, all too rare
For earthly soil and earthly air.
Al An! sweet, shy flower, twas not for long
That thou didst mingle with the throng:
Yet thou, unconscious, shed'st raw
OF purity athwart their way,
AS thou their guardian angel vert
Though now with heavenly armor girt,
I'd not recall the, though my eyes
Are dim with tears; though choking signs
Fill my sad heart with many an ache,
ia still them all for thy dear sake.

ALONE. /.

l am standing tonight where the sea-winds
And the waves come laundering up to the
shore,
And dash and break on the sun-bleached sands.
With low, deep moan, and passionate
roar.
SAD songs they sing, with lips afoam,
~ roaring gale, and that helpless band
Whose pale, cold faces upturned to the sky.
Like shadows rest on the waTe-washed sand.
They chant of those who shall watch and wait
Till Time has silvered the dark-brown hair.
Win hearts ever wrung with cruel doubt.
Ana lips ever moving in silent prayer
o God! if only the white foam wreaths
Flashed glistning spray upon my breast,
VI the hungry waves had closed over me,
How sweet would I sleep-how softly rest!
o Tide! creep back to the Oceans breast,
Where cold forms rest on its Shiny bed.
ana bring some tidings; for truth is best,
though you sadly murmur, Your love is
For dream, some day wanderer may come,
Drifting over the seas from a foreign land
And my dead heart shall beat at his sorrow
full call
And my eyes unclose at the touch of his
hand.
But 0 the slow death of the heart that waits
~ the laundering sea or peaceful bav! IL
. for just one touch of his passionate lbs
Ere my soul drifts out DER the darkened
way!

They, too, went to the Soldiers Home.
But how differently it seemed, with this
listless lump of mortality beside her in
place Of q man! At one slightly eminencei
she asked HIM to stop and look at the
panorama before and below them. He
admitted thatit was very nice in as en-
thuslastic tones as he would have admit
ted the superiority of a prize pumpkin at
a county fair. While they were stopped,
the horse reached down for bite of the
green grass beside the carriage path; his
master gave him sudden jerk with the
reins and sharp cut with the whip. The
lady demonstrated at whaG seemed to her
the uncalled for cruelty; the man seemed
somewhat ashamed, and answered apol-
ogetically that "anything that obeyed
him would get along we'll enough, but
anything that disObeyed him would have
to suffer the consequences" The woman
unused within herself that ssany thing after
he was married, would undoubtedly in
clude his wife.
In due time came the sunset, and the
twilight-and the expected "proposal."
But for the assurance gained the preced-
lng1 day that real, faithful, fervent, long
enduring human love had not died out of
the world and become entirely thing Of
history, poetry and romance-but for the
confidence that she could so love some
man who was worthy, and the hope that
some day some worthy man might so
love her-but for the contrast Of that
husband with this person who offered
himself as her husband-she would have
said eyes" AS it was, there was an al
most sharpness in the promptness and
emphasis with which she answered "No.'
That Sabbath evening, If one had
asked the gentleman who accompanied
the lady to the Soldiers Home on Satur-
day what influence he had exerted for
good that day, he might have answered
truly that he knew Of none. If one had
| asked the lady she could have answered
that by his manifestation of manyly
character, his utterance of no.
bic sentiments, with no thought of put
ting himself or them on exhibition, he
had given her new and larger and more
correct ideas Of genuine manhood, and
saved her from loveless marriage and a
blighted life.
If seem to be writing these as facts
that | know all about, it is simply be-
cause they are facts, and do not know
all about them. They but illustrate
again the tremendous truth that, uncon-
sclously to ourselves, influences Tor good
or i'll, as our characters may be, are con-
stantly radiating upon and affecting all
| about us:
mo star ever rose
Or set without influence somewhere Who
knows
What earth needs from earth's lowest crea-
ture? No life
Can be pure in its purpose and strong in it's
strife
And all life not be purer and stron ger thereby y

Getting Rid Of a Canvasser.

The following novel way of getting rid
OF book canvasser is valuable to know.
Besides this, there is a pleasant feeling in

The subject is Danbury photographer.
The canvasser is a woman. The work is
valuable, as matter of course She said
she came to sell him copy. He told her
he didn't want to buy. She said the
book was just adapted to him in his bust
ness, and he would gain its value hun
dred times over. He told her that he had
no time to read it. She suggested that
he buy it for his wife. It was lust the
work for a woman. A woman would be
benefited by it to a degree beyond COM
putation. He answered that his wife had
more books now than she could read.
She asked him if he had son. He said
yes. She told him that if this book was
chiefly noted tor one thing above another
1t was in shaping and inspiring the mind
OF young man.
Several customers had now arrived. and
the artist was plainly showing marks Of

"Well, madam, I don't want the book.

Words Of Wisdom.

A hopeless person is one who deserts
himself.
Ignorance has no light; error follows
false one.
a fine coat may cover fool, but never
conceals one.
There is no grief like the grief which
does not speak.
He who blackens others does not whit.
en- himself.
Genius is sometimes arrogant; kuowl-
edge is always difident.
We are never SO proud or SO humble as
when we are being praised.
What is styled timidity is probably
nothing but the fear Of showing too little
merit.
A good constitution is like money
box-its full value is never known till
it is broken.
Good taste is the medesty of the mind;
that is why it cannot be either initiated
or acquired.
In general, there is no one with whom
life drags so disagreeabl as with him
who tries to make it shorter.
If the shoe of monarch could do an.
much as the monarch himself; the court
would be divided between his majesty
and his shoe.
he that is warm thinks all so.
He that is out Of debt grows rich.
Light burdens long borne grow heavy.
What three know, every creature
knows.
Where the will is ready the feet are
light.
Talking comes by nature; silence by
understanding.
Constantly choose rather to want less.
than to have more.
Broken friendship may be soldered, but
never made sound
No man ever yet looked on the dark
side Of life without finding it.
How can we expect harvest Of thought
who have not seed time of character.
Stifed sigh IS the name given to one Of
the new shades of gray.
Open-work silk stockings are worn
over plain ones of solid gray.

A new glove lately shown fastens with
a cord which winds in and out of a doub-
lie series OF little hooks.
Those who have little are always ready
to strike an average with those who have
much.
1t is better to be doing the most insigni-
fcant thing in the world than to reckon
half an hour insignificant
Don't despise the small talents; they
are needed as well as the large ones. A
candle is sometimes as useful as the sun.
The greatest evils in Life have had their
rise from something which was thought
to be Of too little Importance to be at
tendedto.
Luck is good thing, but one cannot
always afford to wait for it. Pluck is a
better thing, because it is always ready
to begin.
Modesty in your furniture, equipage

world looks black to you, you ought to

Living in Hopes.

There is no particular reason WHY a
tramp should wear abolished white shirt,
but they had one at the Central Station
yesterday with a shirt so terribly in want
OF soap-suds bath, that the oldest men
on the force gathered around the fellow
and declared that they never saw any
thing like it under the blue canopy Of
heaven. When asked how long he had
worn it without washing, the man seemed
hurt, and replied:
"Glve fellow a chance, won't you?
You see, ! mad this shirt on seven months
ago when ! broke my arm. couldn't
get It off then, of course"
but your arm got we'll, !" protested one
of the officers.

died.,
"What of that?';
"Why she made this ere shirt with her
own blessed hands, and kinder felt as if
1t were my duty to wear it in memory of
her awhile. I'm a hard looking pill,
know, but love my sister. Poor SARAH
She's up there where they don't need
clean SHIRTS and never have their hair

"Well, haven't you worn.it long enough
to ease your sisters spirit2'
Gentlemen, should have got this shirt
washed some time this week, but last
night ! lost my dog, an animal which
had stuck by me for over three years"
"And what had the dog to do with it?,
III should get washed up and
cleaned up and seem to be somebody. and
should come across that dog, he'd look
at my hair, give one sniff at nv clothes.
and then he'd turn tail and keep up the
search till he fell in his tracks. I don t
want to go back On my. own dog, do I?
I don't want to play any contemplate
trick on canine which has turned to
and eaten single nails and old oyster
cans when we was on the tramp and I
couldn't GIT nothing for myself but
shelled corn. How I'd look going back

me at night without hunting around to

After you find your dog you can wash
up" suggested an officer.

dubious reply. Life is but span, you

Fashion seems to have at last very sen
sibly decreed that for ladies who are in
circumstances that permit them to own
two or more dresses, one of them at least,
for street wear, shall be short enough not
to mop off the pavements or sidewalks.
Those, however, who possess but single
gown, and have to wear that long, may
utilize the same for performing the labors
OF street scavengers without compromis-
ing their gentility thereby.
