KEAR, A poem in seven cantos. BY Rev II, a
'wARniNBR Philadelphia; ]. D. Lipplncott q

Co.
The introduction prologuos the story, the theme
being taken from the legends of the Indian tribes
who dwelt along the Susquehanna. and among the
hills of Pennsylvania. Some of the imagery ia
beautiful, and clothed in true poetic verse. The
introduction which l. fhir sample of the verse of
the entire poem, Is as follows;
o God Existence, Natures soul and law,
First unto thee my heart lie homage pays;
For as from thine our conscious lie we draw,
80 nom thy glory springs enduring praise.
Thou art the Light ofllghts, the Day Of days;
Thou one In All, to thee my face raise
o Father, Brother Spirit let not pride
Nor aught untrue In me my life from thee divide
Kear. TO whose gloomy spirit meath the pines

Thou priest, who minstered at natures shrines,
which heavenly life and love and wisdom wrought,
BE still, my teacher, as ~ years gone by,
When daily sitting at thy feet sought
The lEe' and darkness blend and all things live and
Souls hid from sight but once TO flesh allied,
Who throng the silent dell, the lonely wood,
The pebbly paths where sylvan waters glide,
Draw near, nor from my eyes your presence hidei
The legends of your outward lines reveal
For l. who to thy parents my footsteps guide
Would know the truths which outward forms con-
The freedom, love- and Joy that deathless spirits
feel.
List in the waters sweetly murmurlng,
In the low breeze and rustling leaves, hear
The soft vibrations Of a hidden string.

Whose names and deeds to other days belong

a Few Words About Sergeant Mason and
His Crime.

To the Editor ofTHE REPUBLICAN,
There has been great deal of loose talking and
writing about the case of Mason He was tried
and punished not merely for tho offense of at
tempting the life Of the wretch. Guiteau Thou
sands had at the time the same excusRbe impulse,
and II was precisely to prevent such summary
vengeance that the guard Of which Mason was an
officer was stationed over the jail by request of
the civil authorities 1t was Masons sworn duty
as a member of this guard to have died, II neces-
sary, in resisting an attempt to wTeak tho popu-
lar vengeance on the prisoner. Instead,

sxmnathx With nhildren.

A p r mt should try to sympathize
with the various irregular growths of
a child's nature. Sensitiveness as to
peculiarities of dress is a very strong
element, and it ca~not be laughed
down. The late admirable Lydia Ma
ria Child said that she believed her
character had been p %rmancntly in
jured by the laughter of Ter school,
mates at a peculiar short-waistcd gown
Which her mother made her wear to
school. And u very sensible mother
who would not allow her little daugh-
ter to wear a hoop 10 dancing school
when loops were the fashion, said that
she W : certain that by the mortifica-
ton she had caused her, and the un-
due attention which had been given to
the SUI icct, she lad made love of dress
a passion with the child, On all these
questions n certain wholesome inatten-
ton is perhaps the best treatment. Try
to allow your child TO be as much like
his fellows rs you can; and above all
things do not make him too splendid,
for that hurts his feelings more than
anything and makes the other BOYS
laugh at him. The ragged jacket. the
poor shoes, tue forlorn cap, the decid-
nous pantaloon which has shed the
leaves Of freshneSs-these are not
laughed at; they do not move the youth
full soul to ridicule. 1t is a lovely trait
in the character of boyhood that power
ty is no disgrace. But a velvet jacket,
a peculiar collar, hair cut in a singular
fashion. long hair especially-these are
cruel guide-posts to the young bully.
He makes the picturesque wearer whose
.prettiness delights his mother suffer for
this peculiar grace most %fearfully.

How he Escapad the Rrigapds.

The brigands of Thessaly have vowed
eternal vengeance upon the person and
descendants Of n ~natnralized British sub
ject- Janni Boyardji by name. who
recently played a very pretty trick up
on two OF their number. Having fall
len into their hands he was offered his
liberty upon the prompt payment of
300 liras. He made no objection to
their demand. but told them that he had
mot the money about him, adding that If
they would be good enough to come to
q small retired village. they should at
once be paid; and in order to save
them the fatigue and danger of discov-
cry involved by going on foot, he Of
fered to take them TO the place he
named In his boat, which was not
far off. The brigands graciously ac-
quiesced in this arrangement and tho
four accordingly stepped into the boat
and set of together. When at some
little distance from the shore the willy
Boyardji managed to upset the boat,
and swan ashore with his man, who
was as good q swimmer as himself,
leaving theI two brigands to reach the
land as best they could. They were
both drowned and Janni Boyardji has
applied to the British Yice-Consul for
protection.

I. W. Higgruson on the Health OF WO


With the influx into cities has come
an increasing habit Of spending a third
or q quarter of a year in the country,
this being the time when country life
Is most available, and perhaps the only
lime when 1t Is essential. Tnere is q
great deal to enjoy in the country In
winter; but on The whole. for physical
training, the city offers q better oppor-
tunity in winter. 1t has miles Of side
walk for walking, at the same time
when our rural villages are half buried
In snow; and in all gymnastic advant-
Q there is no comparison. The
finest physical types in New England
are ordinarily to be found, not among
the farmers daughters, bat among the
well-to-do families In our cities and SUI
burbs-families who spend as n mn. ter
of course, their surnme vacaii ms on
the seashore or among the mountains.
All improved habits as to diet, bathing.
ventilation are carried with the sum-
mer boarders into the country. Don't
you think / know" said a resolute
landlady in Vermont, what kind OF
folks are willing to sleep or feather
bedsP' and she added. !'We have few
er and fewer of 'em every year"
Middle-aged people can recall the i'm
mems increase Of physical freedom
given to young girls. first in the cities,
then in the country, by the introduce
ton of rubber boots and waterproof
cloaks. OF course the country is the
place for long free walks and for CLIMB
ing, but who takes the walke AS q rule,
the city boarders.
So in regard to healthy outdoor
games that are doing so much for the
young girls. Croquet was first known
in cities and then in the suburbs I; il
now sets up its wickets in every farm
house yard. II is the same with archery
and lawn-tennis. These exercises pro-
seed from the city outward. not from
the country inward. When they have
eeased, like croquet, to be fashionable,
they may turn out like that to have
established a firm hold in regions where
people do not care whether q thing is
fashionable or lot
1t is not the experience of our public
schools that the children OF emigrant
parents are healthier, on the whole,
shan the more comfortable Of our native
born. Consumption has been regarded
IS the special scourge of New England,
but a physician told me lately that no
class among us seemed to have so little
stamina to resist it as the young girls
of foreign parentage. A worthy poor
Irish widow living near me has lost one
of four grown-up daughters by this dis
ease, and two more are rapidly sinking
under it, leaving her but one. In the
presence of such facts L doubt whether
even the tonic influence of poverty can
counterbalance the good effects Of care
and nursing and the ordinary comforts
of life.

THIRD-"While the medical frater-
nifty is 10th to acknowledge itself bafled,
it cannot be denied that with the ex-
ception of one proprietary medicine,
there is no known cure of Bright's dis
ease.-lCraigj.
What that remedy is has been fully
explained in this article, and in com
mending it to our readers, we appeal
not to their credulity, but to their judg-
ment and common sense. 1t is not only
pure and vegetable in its nature, but it
has proven so effective hat it is used
more extensively than any other known
remedy now before the people. 1t has
cured ven the most pronounced cases
of Bright's disease, and it is IN absolute
specie for all kidney difficulties which
are the first stages of this most terrible
complaint. These are facts which
every one of forethought can appre-
ciate, and by the observance Of which
all can avoid the misery of "a fatal neg
lect."

Don't Lace.

Do you think a small waist beautiful
Look at the Greek statues. We have
no more perfect standard for beauty.
Imagine what they would be had they
worn q tight corset Why, we should
turn away our eyes. shocked at the
painful angular lines that would replace
the graceful majesty of those flowing
curves. Avoid tight lacing. therefore.
Stupid as is the mistake OF the tight
shoe, 1t is wisdom compared with tight
lacing, which, less painful, Is more un-
relentingly INDUCED. and, like a pain
less poison, saps the beauty, the grace
the life, from its unfortunate victim
For, beside running the figure, 1t de-
stroys the complexion likewise.
