CHRISTMAS DAY.

When Christmas morning comes, they say
The whole world knows IT'S Christmas day;
The very cattle in the stalls
kneel when the blessed midnight falls,
And all the night the heavens shine,
With lustre Of light divine.
Long ere the dawn the children leap
With MERRY Christmas !" in their sleep;
And dream about the Christmae..ree,
Or rise, their stockings filed to see.
Swift come the hours of Joy and cheer,
Of loving friend and kindred dear;
Ofeiits and bounties in the air,
Sped by the MERRY Christmasl" prayer,
While through II ALL sweet and strong,
Is heard the holy angels song;
"Glory be to God above
On earth be peace and helpful lovel'

Blue EYES.

At MONDAY In the crowded street
walked. with absent mind and far
Unnoting aught, till suddenly,
A face flashed by me like a star.
A moment seen-then swift the throng
Closed jealousy about its prize,
And all the memory lett TO me
Was this-she had blue eyes.

They were too shy, too fall of spring,
And in their timid depths | saw
A girl-soul's April blossoming.

And still, though lost to me, keep
Their color in my heart.

GLOVE LAUGHS AT LOCKSMITHS.,

Hillsburg is pretty little village,
somewhere on the eastern side of the
Alleghanies, but / won't tell exactly
where, and Mollie Dane was one of the
prettiest girls in the village. At least,
SO thought Mr.. Charley Abbott, and
nothing in the world would have made
him so happy as to be the owner of one
of the neat cottages on Main Street, in
q joint partnership with pretty Mollie
Dane.
Now Charley Abbott was a manly,
good-looking young fellow, with frank
smile, clear, bright eye, and heart

TIRE TWO ANTS.

Extremes IN friends will often meet;
so oddly did they in these twain
That shouid yon sec them In the street
scarce from smile could you refrain
One day poor Mrs. Gross exclaimed
To Mr. spare, GOOD news To tell
You know now long I've been ashamed
AT making such a horrid swell;
Snow, don't you think, they advertise
A medicine for such rs /,
OF course good papers tell no hes,
One bottle | shall surely try.
"would you be kind enough, my dear,
To get il for me, you're so thins
I am so fat. 'twouid look right queer,
And surely make the shopman GRIM

As much as your obesity.

A sronsirons cure for Esanness found,

For its supply. 'fis hard to ask;
And II for mine you'll later go.
Then yours shall be my instant task"
SO Spare went straight for Anfi- Fat;
And Gloss then went Tor Anti Lean;
At thinking, where's the need OF that!
Twice had the clerk a smile to screen.
Sow both these ladies' feared the eyes
They had ut home-how keep this dark
One 10 the other quick replies,
Lets strip the labels right on starkF'
And so they did ut edge of night:
These foxy friends while homeward bound,
Tore every mint from fireside sight
In hintless tattcrs on the ground.
They mad exchanged without look.
With countless thanks for favors done;
Asto the dose-why each one took
What seemed the most effective onei
Well, did these Ants prove cheat?
Oh not at ali-the truth was this,
Our chemist, being quite discreet,
Supposed the ladies asked amiss,
Not knowing Latin. Each had blushed
And stammered over fat and lean,
So with hid smile his Judgment rushed
Letting no question intervene.
Bat settling from the looks of her,
With what she wished to be supplied;
(For one may lose customer
If luckless asking hurt the pridel;
And trusting he should see it back
/; well read label proved il wrong.
The clerk, with eyes politely slack,
Wrapped, tied and passed the thing along.
They drain the bottles in a week;
They hasten for an interview
With horror blanching either cheek,
But fiery tongEed as any shrew.
For Mrs. spare had parted then
With her one pound in sne weeks dose,
While lot the scales had added ten
To the gross weight of Mrs. Gross.
You'd ike to hear, have no doubt,
Whether the wiser grew the clerk;
Or Ladies spare and Gross found out
What came of dosing in the dark.
But really here Pm at n loss
Until see the two-and then
II Gross is spare and spareis gross,
BE sure they have exchanged again.
Pros for the .4nfis! Good or bad,

For Mrs. spare lost al she had.

here for recuperation. If IL was
the only spring in the State, it
would become famous. But in II
State where there are at least u
Thousand mineral spiings, how can
any one have more than a local
celebrity? There are marvellous
cures of rheumatism, gout neuralgia
and other distressing complaints.
But outside of California these
springs aie very little known.
There are Geysers Springs of inky
blackness, hot springs where the
temperature is high enough to cook
an egg, strong mineral springs at u
temperature of ll0 degrees running
out by the side of cold springs hav.
ing not the least trace of mineral
water, groups afsprings which con-
tain about every mineral salt in
solution known to the world.
So abundant are mineral springs
In this State that 1t is quite COM
mon incident to fini them men,
toned in the description of farms
offered for sale. The owner sets
forth that there is one or more min
eral springs of sulphur, iron, or
other desirable qualities. Some of
the strongest and perhaps the best
mineral springs in California have
never been improved. When the
State is settled up with five or six
million people, these springs may
become famous. AT present they
are hardly considered of enough
Importance for newspaper article.
But let the eXcursionist go to any
one of the counties in this State,
not composed exclusively of valley
land, and he will find on inquiry,
that there are from two to three TO
dozen mineral springs in that
locality, and he will hear of as
many more in more remote dis
tricts. Fashion has done much to
make the Saratoga Springs fla.
nous. The Hot Springs of Ark
ausas are regarded as one of the
wonders by thousands in the West
ern and Southern States. Fifty
years hence, perhaps, the great
sanitary resorts of the United
States will be the mineral springs
of California.

A Land of Mineral Springs'
lBulletinl.


Eastern papers frequently have
long descriptions of mineral springs
which have been discovered in some
one OF the Territories The last
number of the Scientific american
has long account of mineral
spring discovered in Colorado.
These springs have ceased to be u
novelty except, perhaps, as one is
hotter than the rest, or is stronger
in some one of the mineral
elements, or pours out larger vol
ume of water. There are probably
a thousand mineral springs in CAL
ifornia, of which number perhaps
one hundred are more or less known
to the public, and fifty of these have
more or less local reputation. There
Is hardly any natural mineral
water found in the Atlantic States
or in Europe, which cannot be very
closely duplicated in California.
Nearly every county in tho State
has from one to half a dozen min
eral springs. Contra Costa county,
we thought, might be an excep.
tion. But one of the strongest sui
p'-ir springs In the State is that on
