In that strange and mystic land,
Whore the skies are soft and bland,
And never blight or sadness comes aucar,
Where JOY ruleth endlesaly,
And all things are glad and free,

Ihave wandered near and far,
Grasped all wonders that there are,
Climbed the pinnacles that touch its friendly
skies;
Wrapped in its perfect ease,
l have heard its melodies.
Rise and rise.
In that land of calm divine,
All things l choose are mine;
For its treasure houses open wide TO me
The choicest of all time
The spoils of every cline,
Vast and free.

Whose gilded turrets crowd the spicy air {,
Land of unfailing streams
oh, magic land OF dreams,
Thou art fair

Neal DoW's Rat story.

Neal Dow, the temperance leader.
tells this rat story in letter 20 Bos-
ton paper: Ny home is supposed to be
rat-proof, and was 50 when quite new,
but at one time. more than twenty
years ago, we had large colony Of the
rodents, greatly TO our annoyance, and
1t was with us a matter Of daily
wonder where they found a weak spot
in our defenses against them. One
evening young Lady from friends
family, living in large, fine house
nearlya mile away was with us, and
the talk turned on rats, as we heard
ours gallopinR in the ceiling and
scampering up and down the walls.
The young lady said that none had
ever been in their house. and she did
not think there was any point at which
they could enter. Ny eldest daughter,
"A great wit, said: I've heard that, il
politely invited 10 do so in writing.
rats will leave any house and 60 to any
other to which they may be directed,
and | will tell oars that at your house
they will find spacious quarters and an
excellent comlnissariat.
At the moment. before us all she
wrote most fgrandiloquent letter 10
the large family Of rats that had 50
long favored us with their presence,
pointing out 10 them that at Gj Pearl
street WAS large, fine house which
had never been favored with the resi-.
dcncc Of any Of their family. where
they could find ample quarters and a
fat larder. When finished, she read
the missiEe 10 the company, and We
had a great laugh over il. As an old
superstition. she then put lard upon it
and carried it into the attic, where il
would probably be found by those 20
whom II was directed 20. A few DAYS
after the young lady was at our house
again, and burst into laugh. exclaim-
ing: "Our house is oyerrun with
ras," This recalled to Us that We had
heard none in our walls. Ny daughter
went to the attic and the letter wa
gone, While wc were talking and
laughing over the curious affair a friend
came in, and hearing the tale said that
two evenings bcfoEe, in the bright
moonlight, lac saw several rats running
down Chestnut street, which was the
straight road 10 Pearl street. We
have never been troubled with them
since, but ! have not heard how it has
been with the house to which our ben.
choiarlcs were directed.

The respirator has tape strings which
