els the doctor in ?" asked an anxious
looking young man, as he paused half
way up the stairway leading to DR..
Stones Office, yesterday. "No, guess
not" replied the person addressed,
"but you can leave an order on the
slate" The young man hesitated mo-
ment. "Well, guess would hardly
have time to wait" he said. "Is it a
very urgent case?" "Well, yes,' the
young man said, rather urgent, /

Scarce One.
PRoN THE GERMAN OF ALPRRD FRIEDMAN.
BY W. l.. SHOEMAKER.

The plough tears up the tawny land,
And burrows follow where it goes;
The sower at the seed-time strows
The grain therein with lavish hand.
Thick springs the golden wheat, and like
Stand in the field each haum and spike,
As dismal days that know no change.
Yet in the midst strange, fair flower Is
blooming.
An alien seed was in the grain
The sower sowed, and thrive amain
Leaf, thorn, and flower.cup fair and
strange.
Of life, Time burrows up the land;
We follow-each his own path goes;
Scarce one finds in the grain he strows
One seed Of love from Gods own hand.

WOman's Inconsistency.

We do not assert that woman is ALSO
lutely fixed in her love loyalty but she
is such compared to men. Were she a
hundred times less stable than she is,
he might we'll honor her in that as his
infinite superior. Love to her means
loyalty, dedication. She is liable to
deceive herself--she is far more liable to
be deceived. But when she gives with
out reserve or stint the wealth of her
affection, she plays the prodigal to the
last, unless his conduct stirs her to
count the cost. The law of her being
is not to swerve where her heart leads
the way, nor will she, save exception
ally. Too often, however, her fai,nful
heart is driven back by him who sum-
moned it from the first-driven back by
neglect and Indifference, rejection
and to shield himself, he calls his
GOODNESS or his cruelty her in
constancy. He is industrious in
finding faults in her that will exc Use
his own. He says she is tickleincon-
slant. She cannot comprehend how Or
why she is so, though she has not she
boldness to dissent from what she hears
on every hand. She discovers in him
extraordinary lapses from loyalty, vio-
lated pledges, sundered ties. These are
not natural to her; but as she, her teach
ers say, was born inconstant, he cannot
be SO, surely. Her divergence from
him helps her in her uprighteous self
condemnation. Her looking at herself
through his eyes draws his defects
and exaggerates her own. He is
her consider and casuist. He always
puts her in the wrong, and graciously
pardops her for the sin he has himself
committed. No marvel her logic is
perplexed, and her ethics are Devil
dered. For such is mans power over
woman. Lady's Journal.

ARrEMUs WARD DYING DAYs.-The
paragraph relating to Charles f.
Browne (Artemus Ward) printed from
lScribner's Magazine in yesterdays 1ri-
Juae, has elected a note from cores
pondent, who says that during recent
visit to London he occupied IN Craven
street tie same rooms which were
Brownies during his stay in that city.
Artemus was spoken of kindly by every
body in the house, and the landlady
was never weary of descanting upon
his atfability and humorous talk. She
said, speaking from personal observa-
ton. that his popularity in the best
social circles of London was something
uncommon, and that she had never
had so many carriages with coronets
on the panels at her door before or
since Yet this success came slowly;
the first nights of the lectures were
failures; but soon there was such a
rush to Egyptian Hall that it was next
to impossible to get in if one was at all
late. Poor Browne was even then dy-
ing of consumption. and was only kept
alive by stimulants constantly admin
istered to him during the night by his
servant.-N. Y. Tribune.

ensued. Side by side went Rowell and
Hart at a ten-mile gait, every moment in

What ll Means.

The New York "Timss" Of to-day r..
fsrring to the action Of the National
Republican Committee which met at
Washington yesterday has the follow
ing:
Senator Cameron has been elected
Chairman Of the Republican National
Committee by the bare number Of votes
%, necessary to q choice, and Col. Keogh
Of North Carolins, has been elected
Secretary. Chicago WAS selected % the
place Of meeting for the National Con-
vsntion by "a votes, and the date to
meet was fixed At Wednesday. June 2.
The nineteen votes for the position
Of Chairman received by Mr.. Averill,
OF Minnesota, are claimed to represent
the strength Of Mr.. Blaine In the COM
mittee, and the friends Of that gentle
man derive considerable encourage
ment from tho fact that the votes were
cast mainly by the Representatives Of
Northern Republican States.
II Mr.. Blsins's strength among the
Republican masses bore any relation to
his strength among the politicians,
there might bs some better cause for
jubilation among his adhsrsnts. But
It happens that since the "Times" can
vassed the political sentiment Of the
country last Spring, the prs-dominance
of feeling in favor Of the then favorite
Republican candidate for the Presidsn-
cy has increased instead Of diminishing.

The Young Man Ne. Q.

Now that the subject Of profanity has
been limited At It may be we'll to think
Of some other ways in which that little
"unruly member" the tongue, which
is described by respectable authority
as difficult to "tame,' too often defles
the course Of young mans life. Have
you ever thought how sadly some abuse
this noble faculty Of speech : 1t is used
to give expression not only to profans
oaths, but to falsshood, Islander, vitu-
peration, ribsldry, filthy and OBJ.
scene discourse, debasing wit and
low testing, scandalous impurity
and . multitude Of evil insinuations
revealing a corrupt state Of the heart
and affections. A clean tongue 1t is
said, is the inseparAble fruit OF clean
heart, while from = heart suroharged
with evil passions there always flows
. stream Of impure communication. The
Indulgence Of passions and affections
which find vent in corrupt expressions
and obscene discourse, will not only
lower ones standing in the good opin-
ions Of others but inevitably diminish
ones own self-respect. He whs does not
respect himself not only forfsits the
repect Of others, but paves his way to
the lowest intamy. How shocking to
hear the conversation Of men who de-
scended into the cssspool and Shiny pit
Of obscsnity. II you respect yourself.
young man, avoid it as you would
shun q den Of vipers. "silence is gol.
dsn," II Is said, when speech can be
used for no better purpose. The
habit of exsggeration begets q
habit Of willful lying and when
one has established q reputation
for habitusl lying We may consider
himself . ruined man. Who would
trust hims If your way has been de-
filed by any corrupt use ofspeech, make
haste to cleanse ii. This is plain advice,
but you will find it to your interest to
follow 1t. Draw before your fancy now
the picture Of q drunken, swearing,
lying man, and let 1t deter you from all
the practices that might make yourself
the realization Of that position.
