When Victoria opened Parliament, she
acknowledges the grave meeting of hcl
licgcs by scarcely more than glance of the
eye. The head bent slightly, perhaps, but
! am not sure. She, too, walks slowly:
there Is no vulgar hurry about any part OF
the business. AS she rounds tho corner OF
the dais, her face is turned full toward our
gallery. 1t is the business of courticrs to
say that the Queen looks always well. For
my part, thought she had grown gray
since last | saw her, and that the lines of
the temples and about the mouth were tcu
deeper than ever. 1t can never have been
more than comcly face, and there is moth
ing, strictly speaking, in its contour, and
nothing in the figure, which can be called
beautiful or noble. What strikes you,
nevertheless, is the air of authority and the
air of stern sincerity which sits upon this
royal brow and marks the least gesture of
the Queen. The sadness of the face is pro-
foundly touching; the dignity with which
the burdcn-thc all but intolcrablc burden
of her lfc-s borne, appeals to your re-
spcct She is here, they say, to mark once
more her sympathy with the First Minister
OF the Crown; and with the party which,
under his guidance, has been leading tho
country so strange dance these three years
past But politics are forgotten in such a
presence; and any criticism one has to offer
is put dcccntly aside 30 long as the woman
and Queen is present When she has seated
herself upon the royal robes spread over
the thronc-which she might have worn,
ono would think-thcrc is again pause,
almost solemn, and there is time to observe
tito gown whicii tho majesty vi England
has OH. The Majesty and Beauty of Eng
land arc face to face, for tho Princess sits
nearly opposite; and as the Princess Is per-
haps the best dressed woman in the room,
SO is the Queen almost the worst. Her
gown is of velvet, with broad longitudinal
strcaks of minlvcr or crminc running down
the skirt and horizontal trimmings to match
about the body. But you need not stop to
look at it, the Koh-i-noor glows in her cor
sage, and miniature crown of diamonds
shines above the stony head. The Princess
beatrice, in blue velvet, stands by her
mothers side, with traces Of the womanly
attractivencss which belongs to her sister
Louise, now rcigning over the hearts Of
our Canadian friends. There was some
manoeuvcring with footstoo)s and arrange
ment of trains, and the Queens veil had to
he eXtricatcd from the ncttcd work of the
throne. Then tho Queen said "Pray, be
seated and once more came silence.

Popular Fallacles.

Night air and damp weather are held in
great horror by multitudes of persons who
are sickly or of weak constitutions, conse-
qucntly, bys avoiding the night air, and
damp weather, and changcable weather,
that Is considered too hot or too cold, they
arc kept within doors much the largest por-
ton of their time, and as q matter of course
continue invalids, more and more ripening
for the grave every hour; the reason Is,
they arc breathing al impure atmosphere
nineteen-twcnticths Of their whole exist
ence. AS nothing can wash us clean but
pure water, 80 nothing can cleanse tho
blood, nothing can make health-giving
blood, but the agency of puro air. SO
great Is the tendency of the blood to be-
come impure in consequence Of waste and
useless matter mixing with 1t as it passes
through tho body, that 1t requires a hogs
head Of air every'Shour OF our lives to- un-
loadlit of these impurities, but In proper
tion as the air is vitiatcd in such proper
tion does It infallibly fail to relieve tho
blood of these impurities, and impure blood
is the foundation OF all disease. The great
fact that those who are out of doors most,
summer and winter, day and night, rain or
shine, have the best health the world over,
does of itself falsify tho general impression
that night dir or any othor out door air is
unhealthy as compared with indoor air at
the same time. Air Is tho. great necessity
Of life; eomuch 80, that II deprived Of IL for
a moment we perish; and so constant is the
necessity of tho blood for contact with the
atmosphere that every drop in the body ID
exposed to the air through the medium of
the lungs dvery two minutes and half OF
our existence.

Flowers on tho Table

Set flowers on your table--a whole nose
gay if you can get it, or but tive or three,
or a single flowcr--a rose, pink, daisy,
and you have something that reminds you
Of. Gods creation, and gives you link
with the poets that have done it most honor.
Flowers on the morning table arc especially
suited to them. They look like the happy
wakcning of the creation; they bring the
perfume of the breath of nature into your
room; they seem the very representative
and embodiment of tho very smile Of your
home. the graces of good morrow; proofs
that some intellectual beauties are in our
selves or those about us, some Anrora Of
we are 80 lucky as to have such compan-
ion) helping to strcw our life with sweet
ness, or in ourselves some masculine Wild
erncss not unworthy to possess such COM
panion Or unlikely to gain her.

Close tho western gates of gold.
Then those loving arms Of mothers
Tenderly about tho fold.
Over lip, and cheek, and forehead,
Like shower caresses fail
For mothers kiss at twilight

Two white trembling hands inn risone1,
How tho golden moment flles
Lips that softly press Thy forehead,
All tho rosy bushes oaH;
For lovers kiss at twilight

Happy wifo, thy noble husband,
Moro than half lover yet

On thy smiling lips up''fted,
Full Of love his kisses fall,
For husbands kiss at parting

Weary mother, little CHI dren,
With their dimpled hands no fair.
Passing ovar cheek and forehead,

Where no dreary shadows fall,
For the kiss Of sinless childhood
Is the purest kiss Of all.

Hlnts on Starting q Fire.

Starting fire is familiar daily exercise
for thousands Of Thousands throughout the
United States at all times; but there are
many who do not know the best way. Con-
ccntrntion is the leading feature in this lit
tic, but very important domestic duty.
1st, the fuel should be concentrated, that
is, put together in compact heap; and
I'd, in place on the grating where the
draft can be concentrated upon 1t. These
two points gained, it is an easy matter to
produce brisk fire. When the kindling,
which we have presupposcd was dry and
in sufficient quantity, Is. we'll started, the
wood or coal, as the case may be, is 80 put
on that the draft and flame will pass directly
through the fuel. In starting a fire, all do
pends upon having the conditions all right,
and great lose of time, and even patience,
is incurred II they arc not provided.

Fifty Miles of SI!ods.

On the Central Pacific railroad, in the
Sierra Nevada mountains, are near fifty
miles Of snow sheds. They arc built with
timbcrs from IL to l3 inches square, to
support roof Of 8 inch planks, laid two or
three inches apart, the opening to let in
light and let out the smoke Of the locomo-
tives. In some places for hundreds of feet
they are built upon the sides of pcrpcndicu-
lar or sloping rocks, and protect the track
from the immense masses OF snow and ice
that slide down the mountain side from
hundreds of feet above. The compare
lively small amount of snow that passes
through the apertures between tho planks
of the roof is easily removed by the snow
plows and the shovcls of the men who arc
constantly Oh duty in these sheds. Were it
not for these sheds along the grand mountain
peaks Of the Sicrras and the great canons tho
track of tho Pacific railroad would Of
ten he covered with snow and ice for miles,
at depth of twenty or thirty feet. But
while protecting tho railway tracks, these
massive sheds hide from view Of passen-
gers some of the grandcst views of those
majestic mountains. A few weeks since,
an immense snow slide down tho steep de-
clivity above portion of the sheds crush
ed in the massive timbers and covered ND
| several workmcn. 1t did considerable dam
age. A San Francisco writer tells of the
way an approaching train dashed into the
pile of snow and crushed timbors as follows:
Shortly after train No. came dashing into
the debris and tore down moro sheds, in
juring the engineer, George Hamilton.
Three other men, who were buried for
quite time, were finally pulled out and
found to DO slightly injured. The snow
plow from Truckce, which reached the
wreck soon aftcrward, took that portion of
the train which remained intact back TO
Ciasco. On Saturday morning, early, five
hundred feet moro of hedtumblcd together
and threw more obstacles in tho way of de-
| laycd trains. At TamarGck nearly thou
| sand feet of snow sheds succumbcd to tho
heavy weight Of tho snow which the ter
rifle gale had blown upon them. The storm
has been the most destructive one which
ever occurred since the opening of tho over:
land route. Tho passengers who arrived
from the scene further stated that they
were astoundcd OH seeing the hugo masses
of snow piled as high as tho housetops on
either eide Of the track. The big timbcrs
of the snow sheds snapped like matches
when the irresistible avalanches came roll
ing down the mountain sides and tore
down everything In their way. The wind
is said to have blown d q terrific rate and
has done an immense amount of damage
among the timber"

a Swimmers Peril.

Th aas Coylc, laborer in Roach's ship
yard at Chester, Pa, who will be ronlcmb-
cred by the sporting world, as the opponent
of Johnson, the English swimmer, In the
race on the Delaware, from Chester to
Gloucester, August '24, 1876, and for his
various swimming exploits, boastcd recent
ly that he would enter tho river in March
and swim a distance of two miles without
injury. The feat was set down for the 8tn
Of March, and at half-past five, amid a
large crowd of people who had collected at
the ship yard to witness 1t, Coyle entered
the water. The course was to DO up the
Delaware to Chester Creek and thence up
stream to the Beal House. Coylc started
out evidently in good trim, but before he
had been in eighteen minutes signs Of ex.
haustion and cramps indicated that he
would not be able to hold out. His condi-
tion soon became 80 alarming that he. was
picked up and conveyed to the Beal House,
where he remained In an insensible and
precarlous condition for some hours. Coyle

Tho Secret OF Success.

A few days since | met IL gentleman
the owner OF large lper-inills. He took
me through tho mil ., and showed the great
vats Of pulp, and tic great piles of paper
ready for the market; and a world of things
which did not comprehend. After seeing
all the machinery, and hearing his praises
Of his men, and how they sent for United
States; stocks, fifty and hundred dollars at
time, every time ho went to the city, l
said, y
ttWill you please sir, tell me the secret
Of your great success7 For you tell me
you began lfo with nothing"
II don't know as there is any secret about
it. When 10 years old l went to S. to
work. l was to receive forty dollars year
and my food, no moro and no less. NV
clothing and all my expenses must come out
of the forty dollars. 1 then solemnly
promised the Lord that / would give Him
one tenth of my wages, and also that l
would save another tenth for my future
capital. This resolution carried out, and
after laying aside onc-tcnth for the Lord, l
had at the end of the year much more than
a tenth for myself. I then promised the
Lord whether He gave mo more or less, I
never would give less than onc-tenth to
Him. To this VOW have conscicntiously
! adhered from that day to this; and If there
bo any secret to my success, attribute 1t
to this. feel sure am fur richer Oh my
ninc-tcnths Qhough hope that don't now
limit my charities to one tenth) than if /
kept the whole"
| 'ItoW do you account for it2"
In two ways: First. bclive God haa
blessed me-, and made my business to pros
per; and secondly, l haye so learned to be
careful and economical that my nine -tenths
go far beyond what tho whole would. And
believe that any man who will make the
| trial will find it so.
