DRIVING HOME THE COWS.


Out of the clover and blue-eyed grass
lie turned them into the river lane:
One after another he let them pass,
Then fastened the meadow bars again.
Under the willows and over the hill
lie patiently followed their sober pace;
The merry whistle for once was still
And something shadOWcd the sunny face
Only boy! and his father had said
He never could let his youngest go;
Two already were lying dead,
Under the feet of the trampling foe.
But after the evening work was done,
And the frogs were loud in the meadow swamp
Over his shoulder he flung his gun
And stealthily followed the tOotpath damp.
Across the clover and through the wheat,
With resolute heart and purpose grim,
Though cold was the dew on hurTying feet,
And the blind bats fitting startled him.
Thrice since then had the lanes been white,
And the orchards sweet will, apple-bloom:
And now, when the cows came back at night
The feeble father drove them home.
For news had come to the lonely farm
That three were lying where two had lain;
And the old mans tremulous pal>ied arm
Could never lean Oh Il sons again.
The summer day grew cool and late,
lie went for tile cows hen the work was done
But down the lane as he opened the gate,
lie saw them coming one by one.
Briudlc, Ebony, SpCcklc and BesS,
shaking their horns in the evening wind;
Cropping the buttercupS out of the grass
But who was it following close behind?
Loosely swung in the i, l. air
The empty sleeve of the army blue:
And worn and pale, from the crSping hair
Looked out Il face that the father knew.
For Southern prison will sometimes yawn,
And yield their dead unto life again;
And the day that comes with cloudy dawn
In golden glory at last may wane.
The great tears sprang to their meeting eyes
FOrthe heart must speak when the lips are dunn
And under the silent evening skies
Together they followed the cattle home

Three or four closely-written pages of
gossip and clever satire followed, but
Reuben Russell never paused TO glance at
these. He sprang from his chair with
an exclamation of relief.
",That Providencer' he exclaimed.
"that l am no longer bound to that
false-hearted, hollow pretenderl Lit
tie Pennie is worth ten thousand of

He tore up the letter of confession.
and went straight to spend the evening
at the Joyce farmhouse, and innocent
little Pennie never knew how nearly that
season at Saratoga had cost her her
lover.
AS for Reuben Russell, he is wiser if
not sadder man. And he wants no
more lessons in human nature.

A Remarkable Surgical Opera ton.

For about a year, little girl. ten years
Of age, has been patient in the county
hospital, Chicago, suffering from burn
80 extensive that the ordinary treat
nent by skin grating hopelessly failed
to effect cure. 1t was therefore de-
cided to try the experiment of trans.
planting large section of skin partially
detached from healthy object, the girls
twelve-year-old brother conserving to
be f1ayed for his sisters sake. Drs
Lee and Feuger conducted the operation,
which is described as follows by re-
porter Of the Chicago Tribune: A curl
GUS box had been constructed under tie
supervision of DIR. Murphy. 1t re-
sembled nothing more than pair OF
scissors opened out, except that one
part was about four inches higher than
the other. On one face of the cross the
little girl was laid face downward. On
the other the boy lay on his side so that
his leg crossed his sister, the part OF the
thigh from which the skin was to be
taken being just over the burn on the
girl. The children were kept uncon-
scious during the entire operation by
the use of ether, and two assistants con-
stantly directed the vapor of carbolic
acid on the wounds of both the boy and
the girl. The surgeons then cut from
the boys thigh leaf of skin four
inches wide, five inches long, leaving it
attached by the under side. The wound
of the girl was then cleared of its de-
caying matter, The flap of the boys
skin was then laid on the wound and
stitched to tile outer edge of the skin
about the wound, without cutting the
edge, which rendered it still part of
the boys fieshy covering. This was
done to secure the vitality of the boy for
the skin which is expected to grow to be
part of his exhausted sister. The
boys wound was ugly in appearance,
| but the skin had been separated, or dis
sected, so neatly that it will be easy to
heal over by the usual process of graft
! ing. The children, as they lay in this
position, were so bandaged that they
cannot possibly tear the flap Of skin or
move from their position. Thus their
dual existence was begun, which will
| last for about three weeks. By that
time the success of the operation may
be known. During that length of time
| the boys vital forces will be in q
measure transferred to the assistance Of
his sister, and, at the end of that time.
it is hoped that the transplanting will
be complete and the skin firmly grown
on the burned portion. The flap is not
quite large enough, and, before the skin
is finally severed from the boy, still
further portion will be dissected and ap-
piled to the remainder of the wound
The little girls pulse dropped con-
siderably toward the close of the opera
ton, but she was revived by the appli-
cation to the nostrils of cloth dipped
in brandy. The operation was success
as far rs it went, and, if nature takes
Lold in the manner expected, the brave
boy can cor gratulate himself on having
/ saved his sisters life.

Canary colorin1.

Nothing is more curious in the history
of canary breeding than the remarkable
processes of artificial coloring, which
are among the great discoveries of very
recent times. Caparies were brought
up for exhibition which showed
quantity fancifui variations in their
plumage. Those variations were sup
posed at first to be mere incidents in
breeding; and it was understood that
the way to.perpetuate or improve upon
any particular hues was to be careful in
selecting suitable parents. Even then,
and under the most favorable condi-
tons, it was obvious that the colors of
the offsprings must be very much a mat
ter of chance. 1t occurred, however, to
certain intelligent fanciers, that color
might be Influenced by notifications of
the diet. Many prescriptions were tried
with that object-among others, mari
gold flowers, strong solutions of saffron
cochineal. port wine, beet root, mustard
seed. etc.-but with very imperfect
results. when suddenly exhibitors came
into the field with success that startled
envious rivals. Suspicious were aroused
and accusations freely INDUCED in. 1t
was said the colors were the result of
skilltul dyeing, though the very au-
dacity OF such an attempt should have
raised a strong presumption for the
innocence Of the exhibitor. To satisfy
the DIRECTORS as far as possible, the un-
fortunate birds were subjected to severe
ordeals, being half stripped in the pro-
cess of testing their feathers. But ex-
perienced judges like Mr.. Blackston
were satisfied, and gave their awards in
favor of those phenomena. Finally,
one Of the breeders of rich red birds,
who had undertaken to multiply them
almost to order and successfully, pro-
claimed his secret to the world. 1t con-
sisted simply in feeding on cayenne
Some birds will color readily, others,
apparently will hardly color at all, and
by supplying food from which color
can be secreted, we ascertain what birds
have and what have not the capacity OF
doing that, the manifestation of which
constitutes their distinctive quality in
fancier's eye.

Tired.

we are so tired, my heart and ],
Sweet is the swell of the poets sigh;
Sweet is the ring of the minor chords;
Sweet IS the chime of the measured words
But, oh! when life is so hard and dub
We miss the joy of the beautiful,
And echo it back like bite cry
fWe are so tired, my heart and l."
Tired OF sowing the barren grains,
Tired OF taking the useless pains
OF the futile faith, the UNDECIDED word,
And the weary sickness of hope deferred;
While the counted sands drop fast away,
Through the feversh night and the restless
day,
And the reeds we lean on break, one by one,
And the sad, ungranted prayers go on.
The winds swept over the covering plain,
Through the creeping mist sobs the ceaseless
rain;
The chill and heaviness all around,
Like chain the aching temples bound;
Dream, fancy, sacrifce-what is it all
Climbing, struggling, slip and fall,
Ger the dull gray sea stoops the dull gray sky;
We are so tired, my heart and I.

Afrer MANY Years,

Some excitement was ca used Mt
Mahoney City, Penn, recently, by she
discovery by some boys of number Of
old coins in field. A very old man
living there accounts for the coins as
follows: In 1910, when the country
was wilderness. country inn stood at
what is now The central part of the
town. A peddler stopped one day at the
inn in question A hunter from New
Jersey, named Bailey, was also at the
house. When the peddler alighted,
Baily carried in his saddle bags for
him. While doing this he heard the
jingle of money, and, as the bag was
heavy, he concluded that there was
considerable gold and silver in it. He
accordingly proceeded up the mountain,
lay in ambush for the peddler and shot
him through the heart. Persons going
along the road found the body and it
was inferred by the roadside. A small
mound marks the spot to this day, and
people from adjoining places never pass
the place without referring to the fate
which the peddler met. Bailey was
traced to New Jersey by the authorities,
arrested, found guilty and subsequently,
hanged. Before his death he made a
confession in which he told where he
buried the saddle-bags, but the exact
spot never could be found.
