man from Woodvllle had been over to visit
her and detained her until it was Late. On
his way home he had brought her in his

John, and had made rs much out of the

The Year That's Coming.

AAV L COL AAoU . 0V~AAA~9'
From the cradle to the grave
The Old Years run his race.
And smiling at the threshold
Stands the New Year in his place.
Give him welcome, for his mission
Hath all elements Divine
He bringeth like the sybil
Scripture-writ for future time.
Each day like prophet shall foretell
What coming days shall see,
And each within itself shall find
The cause of what's to be.
The present makes the future.
The Old Year Shapes the New,
And what shall hap to morrow
Mirrors in what to-day we do.
Give your seed to mother earth
Then work In peace, and wait.
Sunshall shine and rain shah fall
The harvest's. sure as late.
Fill each day with honest labor,
Don't be worried when you've done
The world owes you a living
If you will but work for one.
Time is coin divinely stamped
Above all minis Of earth,
Then be no moment spent but in
The purchase of its worth.
Lands, titles, gold are gilded dust;
Like fire-flies in the night,
They never shine but when there is
The wan of nobler light.
The noblest mans the simple man.
Who says to set Of sun
''Sink as you may, your every ray
Hath seen my duty done"

Grandeur the Court and Body Elephant

Of his abnormal color, is the object of d.
vine worship for the time beng in the
kingdom Of Siam. His Sublime Grandeur.
we regret to learn, departed this life in
highly sensational manner, fraught with
irreparable disaster to the entire staff of
his household. One morning after hearty
breakfast he went mad quite unexpectedly
and trampIed five of his attendants to
death. To shoot him would have been
sacrilege. An attempt to tranquiize his
perturbed spirit by encircling him with
huge ring of holy bamboo, specially blest
by the High Priest of his own particular
temple, proved worse than Intellectual, for
he broke through the ring and all but ter
minated the High Priest s career upon the
spot. He Was then with great difficulty
AA1eo
where, after several furious endeavors to
batter down the walls with his tusks, he
suddenly toppled over on his side, uttered
a last cry of rage, and gave up the ghost.
Naturally enough this heavy calamity was
attributed to criminal carelessness on the
part of one or other of the attendants in

| OREGoN's STRANGE LAKE.-Several of
our citizens returned last week from the
great Sunken Lake, situated in the Cas-
f, cade mountains about Seventy-five miles
Northeast from Jacksonville. This lake
rivals the famous valley of Sindbad the
Sailor. 1t is thought to average 1000 feet
down to water all around. The depth of
the water is unknown, and it's surface
is smooth, and unrufled as it is so far
below the surface of the mountain that
air-currents do not effect it. Its length
is estimated at twelve or fifteen miles and
its width ten or twelve. There is amour
tain IN the centre having trees upon it. It
lies still, silent, and mysterious in the bo-
som of the everlasting hills, like huge

About Pies.

The dependence Of the American cit
izen upon his pie is quite touching.
The amount consumed, if properly ar
ranged with reference to statistical dys-
pepsia, would probably exceed the nor
ror-inspiring figures which reformers
love to cite in regard to the effect OF
tobacco and liquors. From $4,000 to
10000 pies are daily sold in the city OF
New York alone. Multiplied by fifty,
the ratio OF he population Of New York
city to that Of the United States, 1T
would appear that ovcr million and q
half Of pies are eaten every day by the
people Of the United States. This does
not include the pies made by private
families and large hotels in New York !;
so that it is safe to say that at least
third Of pie or pie every three days
is eaten by every family in the land.
One curious feature is that during times
of public excitement people do not eat
as much as usual. One Of the pie man
ufacturers says that during the illness
of President Garfield, especially at the
time Of his assassination and the day Of
his death, including, also, the days Of
great suspense, the business CT pie
eating and pie-buying fell off very seri-
ously. The same is true Of election
times. Pumpkin pie is going out OF
fashion, being superseded by apple and
cuStard.
