MISSING.

Missing, no more; dumb, dead wall
Of silence and darkness stands
Between us and they who left us here,
In the golden morUing of the year,
With hope and promise and parting cheer,
Wet eyes and waving hands.
Never omen told our hearts
How fate lurked dim and dark;
Fresh and sweet smiled the April day.
Aud the trecherous waves in sunlight lay,
Kissing the sands of the sheltering bay,
And laughing round the bark.
Like molten silver shone her sails,
As she glided from our gaze;
And we turned us back to our homes again,
To let custom grow DER theyearning pain,
And to count by the hearth-ah, labor vain!-
The lonely, lingering days.
Never letter from loving hands,
Never n message came;
We knew long since should the port be won;
We knew what the fierce north gales had
done;
terror we would not name.
All, me! those weary mornings,
When out on the great pier-head
We strained Our sight Ger the tossing seas,
And studied each change in the tltful breeze
And strove TO answer, in tones of ease,
Light question coldly said.
All, me! those weary midnights,
Hearing the breakers roar;
Starting from dreams OF storm and death,
With heating pulsesand catching bre ath,
To hear the white surf "call" beneath
Along the hollow shore.
Never flash down the wires,
Never word from the East
From the port she sailed for-hOw long ago!
Why even spar one would weep to know,
Tossed on the wild waves ebb and flow,
Were something real at last
Missing, missing, and silence.
The great tides rise and fall;
The sea lies dimpling out in the light,
Or dances, all living, cleaning white;
Day follows day, night rolls on night;
Missing and that is all.
The bark crossed out in the log book,
The names dropped out of the prayers;
In many household a vacant place;
In many life vanished grace.
We know our cost in the long life race,
But only God knows theirs.

The H. 81 EUDOer boot

There is nothing better for farmer or out.

ing SO exasperating as a bad one. Competi-
ton among manufacturers has led to such a
cheapening of quality that until lately it was
a hard thing to find rubber boot really worth
the money asked it. The Candee Rubber Co.
of New Haven CT. however, has put on the
market boot designed to meet the call for
real good, substantial article, and to denote its
freedom from adulterative mixtures 1t is called
the "95 Per Cent. Sterling Boot" 1t is made
on honor, as pure as can be made, and is war
ranted three months. By an ingenious con-
trivance space is provided at the top of the
leg for recording the date of the sale, by
punching holes in the space provided-like a
railroad ticket-so that fhere may be no trou
bic about the warrant. The upper and leg of
the "96" Boots are doubled, and the soles are
one-half inch thick, of solid rubber from toe to
heel. Ordinary rubber boots are barely a
quarter inch thick in the thickcst part, and
only one-eight at the shank. A descriptive
circular can be obtained by sending postal
direct TO the company; or the 90" Boots can
be found at most of the stores.

The Kiss Of Death.

In Titusville, Pa, few days ago, Mrs.
Joseph Bushnell died from the effects of
kissing the dead body of her father ten
days ago while attending his funeral in
Pittsburgh. Her father died Of erysipe-
las, and at the time mentioned she had
sore on her lips, through which her
blood was poisoned. Her little daugh-
ter, Ella, is not expected TO live from
kissing her mother.-EIch0Rge.
The kissing Of dead bodies is a relic Of
barbarism, as clearly so as are any and
all other modes OF treating dead bodies
as il the spirit still dwelt in them. Ma
ture, by inaugurating immediate dissO-
luton and rendering contact Poisonous,
is peremptOry in her mandate that We
no longer respect the dead body as the
abode Of the living person. Yet this
worship Of the dead fingers everywhere,
aud everywhere carries its punishment
with it. In New Orleans, the dead are
buried in ovens above ground because
the superstition of the people leads
them to think il sacrilege to bury the
dead In moist ground, oFin a grave that
fills with water. Hence, every atom OF
the bodies returns as eflluvia into the
atmosphere, sooner or later, aud doubt
less aids in generating the pest of the
Mississippi Valley-yellow fever. In
Arabia, millions Of pilgrims gather an
nually to adore the dead relics OF MahO-
met, and, being inadequately provided
for, on their journey, and while stop.
ping at the tomb of the prophet, they
generate Asiatic cholera, aud send il
over the world as punishment for su-
perstition. Perhaps behind these pun
ishments nature may have some impor-
tant scientific revelation to make
known, which shall give us a clearei
knowledge Of the means by which bott
the germs Of death and the germs of lif,
operate. Meanwhile, however, thos,
who are most natural aud unaffected
In letting the dead alone will outIiv,
those who allow their grief to beeom,

tieularly dowdy, and some Of the Tory
ladies are reported 70 have expressed q
spiteful wish that she would buy new
one in time for the ovation in prepara-
tion for the Premier. She has two sons
in Parliament, and takes deep interest
in Mr.. Gladstone's political fortunes.
While il was still q mOOted question

Harrington or Granville to accept the
responsibility of forming q ministry,
Mrs. G.. said: "Wllliam shall be Premier
or nothing" The aforesaid William is
himself the reverse Of foppish in his

PHOTOGRAPHS THAT WINK. The
last new kink in photography surpasses
the ingenuity Of the man who invented
the spirit photographs, and suggests
how handy il would have been had that
crafty person added this to his devices.
A Frenehman takes one negative of a
sitter with open eyes. Then he makes
the sitter shut his eyes and remain in
exactly the same position while another
negative is taken. The two negatives
are printed on the same paper, one on
each side exactly cOineiding. When this
double-faced picture is held in proper
position before the lamp, and the lamp
i rapidly moved or caused to flicker,
the curious effect is produced Of long
continued winking. It is.not claimed
that a person looks more beautiful when
be keeps winking, but it cannot be de-
nied that IL gives one very interesting
appearance.-PtilddelPhid Record.
