By ADELAIDE PROCTOR.
Without one bitter feeling let us part
And for the years iii which your love has
shed
A radiance like a glory rouad my head,
I thank you, yes, I thank you from my
heart.
! thank you for the cherished hope OF years
A starry future, lin. and Yet divine,
Wingins its way from ~Ifeaven to be mine,
Laden with joy, and ignorant of tears.
i thank YOU. yes. I thank YOU even more
That my heart learnt not without love to
live,
But gave and gave, and still had more to
give,
From an abundant and exhaustless store.
l thank you. and no gricfis in these tears.
thank you. not in bitterness but in truth
For the fair vision that adorned INV youth.
And s%loritied so many happy years.
Yet how much more l thank you that You
tore
At length the veil your hand had woven
away,
Which hid my idol was a thing Of clay,
And false the altar ! had knelt before.
I thank you that you taught me the stern
truth,
(Noue other could lave told and l be-
lieved.)
That vain had been my life and deceived,
And wasted all the purpose CT my youth.
THANK you that your hand dashed down
the shrine,
Wherein my idol worship l had paid
Else had l never known IL >oul was made
To serve and worship the Divine.
I thank you that the heart l east way
On such as YOU, though broken, bruised
and crushed,
Now that its fiery t%lFohbing is all hushed,
Upon Il worthier altar l can lay
I thank youf for the lesson that such love
Is a nerverting Of Gods royal right,
That it is made but for the Infinite,
And all to great too live except above.
l thank you for a terrible awaklng,
And ii reproach seemed hidden in my
pain,
And sorrow seemed to cry on your disdain.
Know that my blessing lay i'll your forsak
ing.
Farewell forever now: in peace we part !;
And should an idle vision of my tears
Arise before your soul in after years,
Remember that l thank you from my
heart!

LETTER.

From. Our Regular Correspondent.
Washington. D. C. November. 9th, 1892.
The Star-Route Cases will be opened in
the District Court neNt week, and, prepa
ratory to their prosecution, the judicial at
mosphere has been purified by the light
ning-like removal of q number of govern
ment officials known to be in active sympa
thy with the defendants. The announce
ment Of the removals produced SO much
excitement here that the principal paper
of the city issued an extra. The excite
ment IN official circles is still intense, and
other removals are expected to follow.
District Attorney Corkhill. it is said, will
be superseded by Special Attorney
George Bliss. 1t does not seem probable
that Bliss would relinquish his present
salary of 500 per day to accept a posi-
ton that only pays $1,000 per year, and
one that would entail upon him much
more arduous duty than he is now called
upon to perform. The annual report of
the Acknowledgement will show that the
claim of Mr.. Bliss as special attorney in
this connection will amount to more than
Thirty Seven Thousand Dollars, a great
deal more than the yearly compensation
of the Acknowledgement.
The most prominent candidate mention
ed for the m%arshalship Of the District is
Thomas Murphy, of New York, who is also
q candidate for District commissioner upon
the retirement of Major Morgan.
Another rumor is to the effect that First
Assistant Postmaster-General Frank Hat
will resign from the Postoffice Department
and confine himself to journalism.
Now that the axe begins to fall the
friends Of others in danger are uneasy in
consequence. If the President intends to
turn out all of those under him who have
been intimate with star route people and
dined and wined on the proceeds of their
alleged corrupt transactions, heads will
fall very thick into the basket. Several
of the officials who are mentioned, as liza
BILE to be dismissed, as we'll as the rest that
were dismissed Saturday were personal
friends of the late President Garfield. and
already it was openly intimated that this
fact is the handspring of the Presidents
action. There is most probably no ground
for this assumption, but the officials who
are affected protest most vigorously that
they have been treated with marked inius
tice, and will undoubtedly seize upon this
idea to help them out. Mr.. Henry, the
United States Marshal for the District of
Columbia was one the most intimate friends

Mems Names.

The study of meas names is as curious

or residence of their original bearers; as
Burgoyne. from Burgundy; Cornell or
CORVALLIS. from Cornwall; Fleming.

from Gascony; Hanway from Halnault I;
Polack, from Poland Welsh. Walsh and
Wallis, from Wales; Coombs. Compton,

Camden, the antiquary, says every vii
lage in Normandy has surmamed some
English family. Dale, Forest. Hill, Wood.
and the like, are derived from the charac-
ter or situation of those who first bore the
names.
The prefix latte" or sat-" softened to
"av or .an." helped to form number OF
names, Thus, If a man lived on a moor.
he would call himself Afternoon or At

Such names as Baxter and Bagster are

that when men began to take them up
they for sometime kept the feminine
names.

A Grave Mistake.

Many father makes a grave mistake in
not getting acquainted with his sons. The
mother usually knows her daughters much
better. and is in more cordial sympathy
with them. If young men were taken
more fully into the confidence of their
fathers. and made their companions at
home and abroad. in all pastimes and
amusements, it would be abundantly bet
ter for both. Fathers, if You do not
know your boys, set about it at once. II
you do not. be sure somebody else less
desirable will. Fathers and mothers
rarely make any mistake in cultivating the
confidence and affection of their children.
If they deny any reasonable request more
pains should be taken to explain to the
children the reasons than il they were
strangers. A parent should never cease
to be polite to children. While they have
a right to order and be obeyed, kind
request and IL thank you" will nine
times in ten accomplish the same far
more eflectuallv. The earliest lessons at
home. taken from the father and mother.
fix the status of the man and woman in
the future in thousand things that tell
for good or i'll. The most beautiful scene
on this earth is well ordered home,
where every wheel is turned by love, and
where each member yies with the other
contributing to the happiness of the
other. OF such homes we cannot have
too many. and their influence for good
cannot be Over-eStimated.

NOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

1t will be apparent to any one, who will
examine SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside
from the necessary thickness for engraving
and polishing, large proportion of the
precious metal used is needed only to stitien
and hold the engraved portions in place and
supply the necessary solidity and strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless SO far
as utility and beauty are concerned. In
JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH
CASES, this waste of precious metal is over
come, and the SAME soLIpirY AND STRENGTH
produced at from one third to one-half of the
usual cost of solid cases. This process is OF
the most simple nature, as follows: r plate
Of nickle composition metal, especially
adapted to the purpose, has two plates OF
SOLID GOLD soldered one on each side. The
three are then passed between polished steel
rollers, and the result is strip of heavy
plated composition, from which the cases,
backs, centres, bezels. &c, are cut and
shaped by suitable dies and formers. The
gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to adj
init of all kinds of chasing, engraving and
cnamelling; the engraved cases have been
carried until worn perfectly smooth by time
and use without removing the gold.
