THE WHITE rio IFFR4S iS7OR Y.

A sweet pure flower, white the snow without
| or Nv and bl,ssomed i'll the scented air,
And dreamed + ull many a dream of life and love.
heard young lovers whispering all about,
Ami thought that soon |. too, should have my
share.
The sunshine wooed me gazing from above.
Twas then opened out my perfect flower,
Until the whole place owned It's TOndrous power.
With soft sad eyes, watched my lady come,
And as she drew me toward her heaving breast
deemed my time drew nigh to SEE the world,
That void of which heard the veice.ess hum
Go on fore er, with curious vague unrest;
And wider yet my pure white leaves unfurled.
" My lady wears me at the ball tonight;
lonce shall see scene OF rare delight!
With shaking hand my lady cut the stem,
And pressed me to her lips, and in her eyes
! saw the large tears slowly gathering there;
Yet did not fall. She did not notice them.
And looked through mist beyond the pale blue
skies
AS if she saw a mystic vision fair.
- My lady gives me" said /, whispering low,
" To him to whom her sweet heart longs to 60"
Slowly she carried me with tagging feet
Into anot her room. There, on the bed,
Lay something white and wonderful and grand,
Upon the lips lingering smile. SO sweet
] knew that was with the blessed dead
Whose work was done. who could no longer
stand
With weary eyes. watching the daylight die
TcO swift away across the winter sky.
My lady placed me on TIL indicating heart.
BY the crossed hands, and sighed with bitter
pain,
And yet methought she envied me my place.
She TUNED away then, as if forced apart.
Her lips just breathed her lover name again;
Yet came no sign upon that silent face.
Twas then knew it alldeath is llfes best,
And he wins most who earliest goes to rest

forces, Or have dulled them into weari-
ness and repose. To mention renowned
American authors only, we find that
Longfellow, Lowell, Holmes and Tick
nor have filled Professors chairs for
many long years; that Bryant, Whittier,
Howells, Curtis, Warner, Bret Harte,
Aldrich and Bayard Taylor have done
great share of their best writing in Fours
after their routine newspaper work had
been performed; and that Hawthorne,
Irving, Motley, Hildreth, Marsh and
Bancroft have fulfilled onerous oblic
tons in posts of public service. Not a
few of our American writers also have
filled clerkships, as did Charles Lamb,
or engaged in banking, as did Samuel
Rogers, or even conducted a mercantile
establishment, as does William Morris.
The rule bears wholly in one direction,
and the exception is rarely to be found.
The nearest approach to an exception OF
the sort, among our chief writer's, is to
be found in the case of Prescott; but
Prescott, though removed from the ne
cessity of money-making, was also re-
moved from its possibility by physical
malady which surely was as exacting as
any ordinary drudgery, and as likely to
impair or destroy good work by man
less resolutely determined to overcome
all obstacles. Another American his
torian, Parkman, has also, like Prescott,
been obliged to work despite a serious
affection of the eyes, which, in his case,
prevents his writing more than five min
utes at a time.
Thus it is, not only in literature, but
in every department of good and help
full work, that those succeed who,
though busy with humdrum tolls, or
otherwise hindered, make success by
taking what little time they have for
higher labors, instead of refusing to
take it because it is little. Better is an
hour well spent than twenty-four hours
occupied in idleness, or, what is little
better, in grumbling over our enforced
occupations. And no one is so busy
that he is obliged really to waste his odd
moments, simply because he thinks he
is wasting his even ones. Just as air
cannot be all oxygen, or a house all win
dows, or day all sunrise, or plant all
flower, so life cannot be devoid of
large proportion of elements which
seem neither bright nor beautiful, but
which are essential to the excellence
or rather to the very existence-of its
highest achievements IS. S. Times.

On the Nebraska Ranges.

It is estimated that the Tiff estate now
owns about $4,000 head of cattle of all
ages. 1t includes eight ranches, the
principal one being one hundred and
sixty miles In length by sixty miles in
width: They are situated between the
Union Pacific Railroad and the South
Platte River, and reach westward to the
foot hills, including portions Of Colorado,
Wyoming, and Nebraska. Within the
past two years there have been added
to the herd by purchase, $4,000 cattle
from Texas, while the calves branded
within that time number about 5000
head. Within the same period 25,O2l
have been marketed for beef, and II, 900
will be marketed this year. The value
of the estate is estimated at 81, 100000.
The drive of cattle from Texas will be
heavier this year than ever before, and
has been estimated at 800, 1000, of which
Nebraska will get large percentage.
Many Of the stockmen Of Western Ne
braska are now making preparations to
add largely to their herds of Texas cat
tie. Ogallala is the natural terminus of
the Texas cattle trail, and will be the
objective point this year. Of the cattle
coming to that immediate vicinity, the
Sidney Telegraph mentions the follow
ing: Pennsylvania Stock Company, g.
900 head; Jones Bros, $500 head James
Reed, Texas, 5000 head; John Dawson,
Texas, 5000 head; Andrews Bros,
Texas, $500 head; j. W. Camel, Run
ming Water, Neb., 5000 head; D. r.
FAINT, Texas and Nebraska, 5000 head.
Millett, Mabry, and many other we'll
known stockmen, will also bring cattle
up on the trail for disposal in that vi
entity. Not only Cheyenne County, but
nearly all of Sioux County is now being
used for grazing purposes, and our cat
tlemen are even converting portions OF
Dakota into stock ranges Omaha Her.

A Long Journey For a Lover.

The Alexandria (Minn Post tells the
following romantic story: In the sum-
mer of 1859 regular mail service was es-
tablished, and early in 1860 Burbank &
Co. put in a line of stages. At this Pc
Rod in the history of Alexandria an in
cident occurred of a peculiarly romantic
character. With the first trip of the
stage coach came two lassies from Scot
lands rugged shores, one of whom was
on her way to Winnipeg or Fort Garry
to wed her Highland lover, who, in the
employ of the Hudson Bay Fur Com
pany, had crossed the sea before her,
and whose home was in the far-off wilds
of British America. This Highland lad
die had travelled some 1000 miles from
the northwest of Fort Garry, at which
place he expected to meet his lady-love.
And here again is the truth of the old
proverb-that the course of true love
never runs smoothly-verifed. From
some unaccountable delay of the stage
or Red River steamboats,, his loved one
failed to reach her destination at the
appointed time. and after waiting sew
eral days in anxious suspense, the young
Scotchman came to the conclusion that
his Bonnie Annie Laurie" had either
forgotten her plighted VOWS or bestowed
the affections of her heart upon another;
and when his heart by hope deferred
grew faint within him, he turned his
face sadly in the direction from whence
he came, to drown thoughts and feel
ings in the deep, dark solitude of forest
wilds. Painful, indeed, must have been
the thoughts of that young girl, to find
on her arrival at Fort Garry, and after
thousands of miles of travel, that he for
whom she had sacrificed home, friends
and country, to brave the perils of ocean
and the dangers of wild and almost
endless wilderness, had kept faithfully
his tryst, and believing her inconstant
to the VOWS plighted SO far away, had
returned to his forest home without her.
Such constancy and devotion in a young
and timid girl aroused the sympathy Of
those around her and special express
was dispatched in pursuit of the wan
dering lover, who at the end of two or
three days was overtaken with the JOY
full tidings that she whom he had tray
eled so far to meet, awaited with anx-
ious heart his coming. Let us draw a
veil, as the novelists say, over the event
Of that happy meeting. 1t was too
sacred in its details for the eye of
curious mortals to behold or the pen of
human to portray.

Brain Work and Bad Habits.

Bad habits, impure air, unhealthful
food, neglect of exercise, the use of to-
bacco and whisky, have killed thousands
of students, where hard study has killed
one. More people die, l think, from
want of sufficient brain-work than from
too much of it. When school-g girls die
from tight corsets, heavy skirts, heating
chignons and other unnatural infections,
it is very kind in gentlemen to say,
"Killed by hard study but women
know better Some years since had a
hired girl who suffered almost constantly
from headache, but she wore continually
heavy chignon, supported by wire
pins in her hair. Her headache was not
caused by hard study. This same girl
often spent forty minutes at night put
ting up her hair, and as many minutes
in the morning taking it down again.
But the worst of it all was that after all
her care, she was sick, and consequent
ly ugly. Young ladies can't safely study
during school hours and then spend the
hours allotted to exercise and recreation
in the exhausting labor of altering old
dresses into the latest fashion, or even

A Skeleton in q Tree.

A startling surprise, after the fashion
of the story of Ginevra, was experienced
not long ago by party OF Syrian WOOD y,5
cutters in the forest of Drommling. 1hey
began to fell venerable oak, which
they soon discovered to be quite hollow.
Being half decayed it speedily came to
the ground with a crash, disclosing a
skeleton in excellent preservation. Even
the boots, which came above the knee
were almost perfect. BY its side was a
powder horn, porcelain pipe bowl,
and silver watch on which was en-
graved the name, H. Won Krackowitz,
1872" The teeth were perfect. 1t would
seem to be the skeleton of a man be-
tween thirty and forty years of age. It
is conjectured that while lee engaged ga sdn IN
purpose. and slipped incautiously into
the hollow trunk, from which there was
no release, and he probably died OF
starvation.
