And into the waters Of Lethe depart,

And tenderly nurse it,
And give 1t q permanent place In the heart.

And quietly brooding,

How welcome the seeming

Whether ones wealthy or whether ones poor,
Eyes bright as berry,
Checks red az q cherry,
The groan and the curse and tho heartache Cal

Resolved to be merry,
All worry to ferry
Across the famed wators that bid lis forget;
And no longer fearful,
But happy and cheerful,
We feel life has much that's worth living for yet

Female college is go largely patronized:
l, The teachers, in all the departments
arc accomplished in their profession, pains,
taking, laborious and conscientious. They
know what to teach, how to teach, and they
teach it.
2. The course of study, in ito extent and
compreher sveness, is unsurpassed by that Of
any school in the state nor does any out of
the state offer better II includes just what
girl ought to know.
3 The school is properly disciplined and
graded; that secures the best,deportment and
application possible, and this assigns to every
student her proper class End special teacher.
4. The building is the largest and finest of
lis class in the state, and il is beautifully sit
uated in a large and handsome plat Of ground
in a convenient and accessible part of the
city.
5. Our citizens are intelligent, know how
to appreciate such advantages, and therefore
pstronize the institution that affords them.
Bee ,use of these things the school was new
or in so prosperous condition as now.
Every day the large and pleasant
study halls are filed with bright happy
girls intent on the acquisition OF knowledge,
cheerfully submitting themselves TO the
rigid mental and moral drill here Observed
a study and drill that cannot fail of its
splendid result, viz: Throughintellectual cul-
ture and noble character formation.
While there are many pupils in the school,
there is room for more, and the system of
careful grading and classification, together
with the full supply of teachers, will prevent
neglect of any. Patronize home institutions
Let us place at the command of this colleg

"Across the Continent. ,

AT the matinee yesterday afternoon as we'll
as last night, the Oliver Doud Byron troupe
played the famous drama of "Across the
Continent" At both performances the
house was packed, and with delighted audi
ences. This play is not Of the frontier blood
and thunder style like great many Of I'd G
present day although the last scene is an In
dian fight. Mr. Joe. II. Banks, as Dennis
Dwyer, the shoemaker and Johnny 0 Dwy-
or, tho baggage is an exceedingly
excellent comedian and with his musical IN
struments aud his comicsli!ies generally kept
toe house in roar. MIR. James u. Radcliffe,
in his impersonation of the negro character
Ce'ar Augustus, stage struck moke, and
with his songs and dsnceg and hsrmonicon
music, was an eminent success. Master
Charles j. Hagen, is but youthful come
dian, but he is excellent in his speeial!ies.
Mr.. Oliver Doud Byron rs the central figure
of the play, Jos Ferris, "th9 ferret" and
Miss Kate Byron in the dusl roles
OF Agnes Constance, tho broken hearted
wife, and Louise Constance, the adopted
daughter OF The rich merchant, were, of
course, both % periect 30 the characters they
assumed could be made. The scene of tue
dying mother sobbng out her life over her
Starving infants, WAS touching 10 the extreme
and full of a tender psthos, that wen. to tha
hearts OF all and brought up tears
to their eyes. The play as a
whole is interesting, full of thrilling situs
tons and engages ones WRAPPED attention
from beginning to ending. Ittills the largest

ST. Louis, Feb 10, 1881.
In viewing the different manufactures of
ST. Louis, we think none will be more in
teIesting to our readers than a description of
the mammoth establishment of james Gar
nesu 81 Co.'s cracker manufactury.
This well known firm, established in 1882
nearly fifty years ago, have just completed
their new factory, occupying block Of
ground, 130x134 feet. The building is three
stories high and built Of pressed brick and
stone cappngs, rendering it ut once to the
observer tasteful and imposing. Entering
the immense cellar we fud storage room
sufficient for $1,000 barrels of flour, 1000
tielces of lard and 1000 barrels of molasses,
which at present prices they could readily in
voice Sl25,000. Passing on TO the left we
come to a room S0x50 feet, in which are
located two circular and two tongue and
groove saws to prepare lumber for boxes, en-.
Ploying twenty-five men in their making.
the Messrs. Garneau use m.
nually two million feet of cottonwood
lumber for their boxes.
We next come 10 the engine-room. Two
large boilers greet our entry, while the inn
mense seventy-ave horsepower engine ex-
cites our admiration.
Taking the elevator, of which there are
two in this establishment, we ascend TO the
second floor. Here everything is hustle and
business, yet the most stringent order pre-
vailng, every man at his post, and well ls he
aware OF his duties.
Passing to the east side we find
q room of six Mckenzie patent
reel ovens, of which this Arm own the
exclusive right in full operation, accom-
panied by feeders Of ponderous and delicate
machinery side by side. The flour il first
dumped into huge troughs, of which there
are twenty-four in number, together with
other materials for the manufacture of goods
desired. The materials are then transferred
into large fuunel-shaped boxes, where Il is
worked up by six huge iron screws. After
having been thoroughly kneaded 1t runs itself
