The kellogg case, so far as testimony goes,
IS closed. To those who wish to think well Of
human nature this will be gratifying intelli
genee. Senator Kellogg asked on Thursday the
privilege OF introducing another Louisiana wit
ness, but the committee decided to close the
case, giving the attorneys Of Messrs Spoffard
and Kellogg two weeks in which to file printed
arguments Senator Kellogg might as easily
haze proved OF his witnesses. il he had decided
do 50, that he was elected President as Soma
stnr. The only pointin his favor is the fact that
Senate has elected him by formal vote

beside the bed, attentively listening to the
poor widows tale of want and suffering, was
handsome gay. careless Tom Chandos.
Nellie's face grew crimson, and the hot
tears sprang unbidden to her eyes, but Tom
did not seem to notice her confusion. He
bowed politely and arose to go, but detain-
ed him.
"Well, really, Mr.. Chandos, this does sur
prise me; for of all places under the sun,
this is the very last where I'd ever thought
of meeting you.'
"Thats because you believe me to be
thoroughly selfish and so 1 am as a general

claim on my benevolence, and came to do
what could for her in her present sore dis

held out was quickly put aside.

Strengthen my husband, and may his faith
and his money hold out to the last.
Draw the lamb's-wool of unsuspicious twi-
light over his eyes, that flirtations may look
to him like victories. and that my bills may
strengthen his pride in me.
Bless, oh fortunel my crimps, rats and
frizzles, and let thy glory shine on my paint
and powder.
Enable the poor to shift for themselves,
and save me from all missionary beggars.
Shed the light of thy countenance on my

point lace and my necklace of diamonds. and
keep the moths out of my sables, l beseech
thee, oh fortunel -
When bow myself to worship, grant that
may do so with ravishing elegance, and
preserve unto the last the lily-white of my
flesh and the taper of my fingers.
Destroy mine enemies with the gall of
jealousy, and eat up with the teeth of envy
all those who gaze at my style.
Fill both of my eyes, oh fortunel with the
plaintive poison OF infatuation, that may
Law out my victms-the men-as numb as
images craven. 81
Let the lily and the rose strive together on
my cheek, and may my neck swim like a
goose on the bosom of crystal water.
Enable me, oh fortunel to wear shoes still
little smaller, and save me from corns and
bunions.
Bless Fanny, my lap-dog, and rain down
hailstones of destruction on those who shall
hurt hair of Hector, my kitten.
Smile, oh fortune most sweetly upon

ness of spirit over my two lily white mice

the Beautiful Church.
From the Stories of Venice.
Beyond those troops of ordered arches
] there rises q vision out of the earth, and all
the great square seems to have opened from
| it in a kind of awe, that we may see it far
away-a multitude of pillars and white
domes, clustered into long, low pyramid of
! colored light; treasure-heap it seems,
partly of gold and partly of opal and mother
| of-pearl, hallowed beneath It into five great
vaulted porches, ceiled with fair mosaic, and
beset with sculpture of alabaster, clear as
amber and delicate as ivory, sculpture fan
les, and grapes and pomegranates, and birds
clinging and huttering among the branches,
all twined together in an endless network
of buds and plumes, and, in the midst of it,
the solemn forms of angels, sceptered, and
robed by the feet, and leaning to each other
across the gates, their figures indistinct
among the cleaning of the golden ground
through the leaves beside them, interrupted
and dim like the morning light as it faded
back among the branches of Eden, when first
its gates were sngel-guarded long ago. And
round the walls of the porches there are set
pillars of variegated stones, Jasper and pOr-
phyry, and deep green serpentine spotted
with flakes of snow, and marbles that half
refuse and half yield to the sunshine, Cleo
patra like, "their bluest veins to kiss7-the
shadow as it steals back from them, reveal
ing line after line of azure undulation, as q
receding tide leaves the waved sand; their
capitals rich with interviewer tracery, rooted
knots of heritage, and drifting leaves of acan-
thus and vine, and mystical signs, all begin
ming and ending in the Gross; and above
them, in the broad archivolts, a continuous
chain of language and of life-angels and
the signs of heaven, and the labors of. men,
each in its appointed season upon the earth;
and above these, another range of glitterlng
plnnacles mixed with white arches edged
with scarlet flowers, a confusion of delight,
amid which the breasts of the Greek horses
are seen blazing in their breadth of golden
strength, and the St Marks Lion, lifted on
a blue field covered with stars, until at last,
as if in ecstasy, the crests of the arches break
into marble foam, and toss themselves far
into the blue sky in flashes and wreaths of
sculptured spray, as if the breakers on the
Lido shore had been frost-bound before they
fell, and the sea nymphs had inlaid them with
coral and amethyst.

Always complain of being tired, and re-
member that nobody else gets tired.
Your wife should have everything in
readiness for you, but you should not do
anything for her.
When your wife asks you for money, give
her a nickel, ask her what she wants with it,
and when she tells you ask her if she can't
do without it. Then 60 down town and
spend ten times the amount for cigars, for
they are necessity.
Go down town Of an evening. stand
around on the street corner and talk politics
it's more interesting than to stay at home
with your family.
Charge your wife not to gossip, but you
can spin all the yarns you wish. =.
Have your wife get up and make fires bu,
don't get up yourself till the rest ofthe family
are eating breakfast as you might take cold
Wear old clothes and make yourself a
untidy as possible until your wife's health
fails, then it would be best for you to fix VI
some, for in all probability you will not wan
another when she is gone.
Have smile for everybody you meet, bu
get frown on before you go home.

THE STRAWBERRY STAIN,

- .
You were laughing, romping girl,
merry urchin l.
And We wandered thro' the Summer fields
Beneath the Summer sky
We sought ripe and glowing fruit, "a
MILO grasses damp with rain,
Until your little fingers wore
crimson strawberry stain.
And now and then a Bird nest -
Wefound with childish glee-s -
The whole wide world, my little one, -s1t
Seemed made for you and me.
Then, by the laughing brooklet's side,
You sang a sweet refrain,
Until your own red lips outblushed
The crimson strawberry stain. n
We laughed and loved the livelong day,
With merry childish din;
held bunch of buttercups
Beneath your pretty chin.
The hoary forest trees looked down,
With joy upon US twain,
And sunbeams kissed the cheeks that wore
A crimson strawberry stain.
oh, darling, don't you sometimes wish s
To wander forth once mere,
As sin the happy days of youth,
Among the fields Of yore?
I'D give the work and wealth of years,
To see my love again TE
The little girl whose bushes shamed
The crimson strawberry staini,
