A LEAF FROM REvERY.
MAGGIE A. DOWNING.

Life is garden,spot. lonely and fair, =
Filled with the flowers OF beauty and care,
Garlands to gather of thistles and thorns,
Crowns Of light roses as fresh as the morn.
Rainbows of happiness encircle the spot,
Stars are seen shimmering just over the lot,
Golden sunbeams dance ever anon,
Far away over each crown that ia won.
Clouds Of despair, all hopeless and dark,
Rise to obscure the veriest spark;
But underneath this veil of despair,
Always is hid a lining so far.
Down come the raindr0ps in storm and in hail
Pelting the flowers SO lonely yet frail,
Stealing away from the air its perfume,
Sealing, as 'twere, each messengers doom.
But on the morrow each floweret again
Rises, all bright from the storm and the rain,
Pure as the breath of an angel in hne,
BiushiDgly waiting to be garnered by you.
So it is left to us all il viii
Clean but the roses our vases to FILL
Taking the storms as matter of course,
Only to add to their beauty and force
The raindrops Of tolls anxiety and care,
Falling from clouds Of hopeless despair
Only make dearer each lifes bitter sweet,
Andstrensthens the clouds of pleasures SO feet
Then give me the roses all mingled with thorns,
The raindrops that many would eagerly scorn,
For life is the fairer, the brighter by far,
For the mingling oftborns and want Of o star

Sunday Liquor Selling.

A despatch to the Philadelphia Times
from Cincinnati, Ohio, dated May 18th,
says:
"The order of the reform Mayor to
the saIuon-keePcrs to sell no spirits or
liquor on Sunday has been wholly dis
regarded to-day. So far as can be
learned but one saoonkecper has re-
fused to serve his patrons with all they
wanted and even in his case the drinks
were sold. The Mayor now says that
all he meant by his order was to direct
the attention Of the salOon-keepers to
theStubb's law and warn them that they
would be liable to prosecution. He dis
claims, however, having any intention
of prosecuting them himself, but will
issue warrants for their arrest, provided
criminal information is filed against
them. AS this has always been the
specific duty of the Mayor under the
old law as well as the new, and for of
fenscs committed on week days as well
as on Sunday, the Mayors present
stand is anything but satisfactory to
the temperance and misunderstanding
people, to whom he owes his election.
The theatre managers whom the Mayor
has succeeded in stopping from giving
performances on Sunday were talking
to-day, owing to his vacillating course
tOwarn the saloon-keepers, Of also defy
ing his order, and if arrested of testing
the constitutionality of the law in the
courts.

And in all Donegal you niver could see,

Himself and his wife, his Children and COW,
Slept on the ground-hoor, beneath the hay

And niyer word, did the doctors complain,
About them MT living both neatly and clean;

A mig or dog, lying dead in the street.
Sure Mt home, 1t was nothing uncommon to
How nicely the pigs and the Children agree.
They share the same bed, and together they

Sure its our cutters they'd have Just as neat
As Mrs. rs'" Malone would her crooks for her
cream.
And every bad sniff that they get in the air
Makes them search till its found, (no matter

Then they curse and swear at me, do ye see,
Because I'm boss Of the Street Com mit-tee.
The devil himself, these doctors can't please.
w no ride in fine coaches, and live at their

With the streets of the town, and the Street

And thu newspaper men, (bad luck to

If n rat, or II cat in the cutters they see,
They abuse the Health Board, and the Street

Sure. in old Donegal they would niver com

But they'd wait without murmer, until big
rain
Would wash out the cutters, as neatly and
As the churn in which we'd be churning our

These doctors and printers, if they had their
say,
THEY'D forever he throwing our money away
ON shoyclS, and brooms, and sweeping ma

And forever be trying our streets for to clean.
Sure it's bankrupt we'd be, in u very short

For next they will want carbolic acid and

In the lanes and the cutters all over the city,
At the city's expense, by the Street Com

A Bath Tub for the Eco Elephants.


What will probably prove one of the
most novel attractions yet introduced
into the Geological Garden is the contem-
plated construction of large lake in
which the elephants will be permitted
to take daily baths. The matter has not
received the entire endorsement of the
Geological directors, but it is presumed
it will be favorably passed upon at
the next meeting of the directors,
which will occur in q few days. 1t is
the purpose to locate the lake in the rear
of the elephants house. Referring to
the proposed improvement head keeper
Nash, Of the Zoo, said yesterday that in
his opinion the establishing ofa bath for
the elephants would afford more amuse-
ment to the visitors than all the animals
in the garden. The antics of the ele-
plants in the water, he says, are very
laughable, and besides the pleasure it
would afford the lookers-on, Mr.. Nash
thinks it is something that is really y need.

American Grown Tea.

A number of representatives of the
leading tea houses of New York as
se,nbled in the house OF A. A. Low &
Co., on Saturday, for the purpose of
sampling some teas which were grown
in Georgia by General lie Due, Com
missioner of Agriculture. Cups of tea
were handed around to those present,
who pronounced it equal to the best
India tea. The latter, though the very
best, is not favorite in this country,
because of it's peculiar flavor, but eX-
porters agree that with different treat
ment this home tea would be Of very sup
erior flavor. The Commissioner also
exhibited specimens Of teas which he
had grown under arbors covered by
brush and moss, and which did not
have the benefit Of the sun. Experts
decided that there was no difference in
the flavor or body between shade-grown
tea and that grown in the sun.
