Henry Of Navarro Before Paris.

SIXTEENTH CENTURY.
Down upon the 'leaguered town
With forty thousand men ne rode;
The fields were bare, the meadows brown,
The starving cattle family lowed.
But conquering hero he rode down
As II to hawk and bells he rode
While fields were bare and meadows
And starving cattle family lowed
And just without the 'leaguered town
They pitched their tents along the road.
Or in the fields and meadows brown
Where starving cattle faiptly lowed.
Day after day they stormed the town;
Day after day he laughing road
Across the fields and meadows brown
Where starving cattle faintly lowed.
One day from out the 'ieaguered town
There faltered forth along the road,
And by the fields and meadows brown
Where starving cattle family lowed,
A wretched throng. The 'leaguered town
Has cast aside its useless load.
And by the fields and meadows brown
Where starving cattle family lowed.
They falfered up. they isltered down,
Then by the fields and meadows brown
Where starving cattle family lowed,
The hero who had stormed the town
Day after day, and careless rode
Day efter day by meadows brown
Where starving cattle family lowed,
With swift sharp strokes came riding
down
Along the white and dusty road,
Unheeding still the meadows brown
The starving cattle as they lowed.
His face was set beneath frown;
His laughing eyes that had bestowed
No glance upon the meadows brown
Where starving cattle family lowed.
Now fierce yet soft looked shining down
Blind 10 the meadows bare and brown
Deaf TO the cattle as they lowed,
His great heart suddenly bore down
The conQueror's pride, and back he road,
Past all the fields and meadows brown
Where starving cattle faintly lowed;
He fed the people OF the town
Those famished groups that ihronged the
And through the fields and meadows
He called the cattle as they lowed.
And fed them all. Then from the town
He turned away and lightly rode
Past ali the fields and meadows brown,
With face that shone and eyes that
glowed.
"V1ue Dieu, he cried. "II take no town
BY famine's scourge; q fairer road
Must Henry OF Navarro ride down
To find his triumphs we'll bestowed" I"

The fact Is that the days of the Repub

1876, they have get retained power dur.
Ing the last four years, partly through
fraud and chicanery, but chiefly through
the patriotic feeling Of the Democratic
party, which led them rather to suffer

Substitutes For Beer.

When harvest operations begin
we shall very likely have the great
controversy concerning the use of
beer in farm work reopened. AL
ready contributions are being made
to the literature of the subject, and
one of the most interesting of these
is a letter from Sir Philip Rose to a
Mr.. Abbey, of Oxford. Sir Philip
some six years ago, resolved to stop
beer-drinking among his harvesters
while they were at work. He did so
it appears, because he found that ac-
cidents happened sometimes, and.
that the men got sullen and stupid,
"the boys noisy and rough with the
horses,' and the women excited
All this mischief he found traceable
to the enormous quantity of beer
which the field hands drank. But as
some liquid refreshment was neces-
sary for them, what was to be SUBJ
stitutedP Sir Philip ingeniously hit
upon weak infusions of cold tea made
up with milk and sugar, and his
workers took to it keenly. Since
then he has had better work done by
his laborers at harvest time, and the
women have been grateful for the
change, because, as Sir Philip says,
they are able to save more money
than formerly. Supplying cold tea
to his friends cost Sir Philip f5 a
year, and he considers the money
we'll spent. We may remark, how
ever, that many other substitutes
for beer are used. In Scotland, un-
less the thinnest of "table beer" is
drunk, the favorite liquor of the
harvester is buttermilk. Then, in
other places, a weak Cruel of oat-
meal and water, kept in cool place,
is found most refreshing and palat-
able. Either is better than beer for
the men, and as for the boys, it is
the height of folly to let them drink
stuff that flies to their heads as the
day wears on, and makes them, as
Sir Philip says, noisy and rough
with the horses" ."--London Telegraph.

Getting Fat ON water.

It mag seem strange to some people
that DR.. Tanner can increase his size and
weight while taking nothing but wster.
but there really is nothing wonderful
about it. Water has done great deal of
fattening In its time. A we'll salted OK on
his way 10 the butcher will increase his
weight many pounds by drinking a few
gallons of water. Corporations of all
sorts and everywhere, but particularly in
the United States have greatly increased
the size oftheir capital stock by watering
it freely. Some of the strongest railroads
in the country have grown absolutely
pursy on water, while our city's special
incubus, the Manhattan Elevated Rail-
road Company, consists so largely Of
water that it is hard to distinguish any
thing else in it. II DR.. Tanner can only
teach people to fatten on water as rail
way companies do the HERALD will
withdraw all it has said about his ex-
pertinent proving nothing, for the faculty
of subsisting on Croton water would
keep the wolf from the door of any
family with strength enough to crawl to
a public drinking fountain.
