SOLITUDE.
ELLA WHEELER.

Laugh. and the world laughs Slth you. Weep. and you weep alone. For the sad old earth must borrow is miTih, But has trouble enough of it's own. Sing. and the hills will answer; Sigh. il IS lost on ihe air. The echoes bound to joyful sound, But shrink from voiclng care. Rejoice and men will seek yor; Grieve, and they turn and go. They want full measure of all voar pleasure But they do not heed your woe. Be glad, and your friends are many, Be sad. and you lose them all. There are none to decline your nectared wine But alone you must drink iife's gail. Feast, and your halls are crowded Fast. and the world goes by. Succeed and give, and II helps you live, But no man can help you die. There $ room in the halls of pleasure For large and lordly train, But one by one We must all hle on Through the narrow aisle Of pain.

A Busy Journalist.
Chicago Eye.


 Mir. Wing Ching Foo, editor of the CAiaeSe- fWeyifan, Is said to be one oi the busiest journalists in New York city. We are not surprised at this. for those familiar with the makeup of a Chinese printing shop, know we'll the multifarious miracles of the heather case single one of which covers the side of house. Every type in their Ian, guage means word. and when the Chinese compositor gets hot and wishes to use some virulent expressions, he gets a hook and ladder and erasls up to the ceil- ing of his case. and pulls down some pure heather talk that is calculated to make a nervous mans har stand like sixty. When he wishes to convey particularly expressive tone, he pours pint of red paint on the types. and supplements the article with a few stars and 'laggcrs. II Is no wonder that Mir. Foo Is the b, siest newspaper man in New York city. il would keep mos, any of us hustling pretty lively if we had te hop up ladder and walk over the roof of house every time we wanted an NJ quad or thin space. NIT. Foo's paper is held in high esteem by the American people as authority on tea and hre-crackers. We never fully appreciated the worth of the heather un- til now. Poor John, if he must go he carries away with him our kind regards. our money and our lost shirts.

A Costly Painting.
Chicago Cheek.

Chicago can felicitate itself upon being the unfortunate possessor of a painting that cost SI 100000. IL is done in oil, and is no larger than well-developed rose and, strange to say, this wonderful painting is living and moving canvass. as is were. It took over thirty years to complete it, and when done it was not even beautiful. At night it looks like a symphony in crushed-s,rawbery style : time, Arthur l. The owner would not pant with his work of ar, for love or money; so you can see that he values it very dearly. He was at one time a mill lionaire. He conceived passion for an eminent artist by the name of Al. Cohol. whom he engaged to paint a picture for him. The artist, being rather eccentric, concluded not to paint for his friend on canvass. but upon his friends body. that he might have with him constant re- hinder of their friendship. But. still more strange, he chose his employer $ nose for background. Day after day the millionaire sat for his artist friend. and day after day new streak Of cor nelian hue was added to the figure. until the subject had grown old and gray, and his money had slipped through his fin- gers, and was gone forever. Of his mill lion dollars he had not cent, but of the picture they could not rob him: thatll stick to him like a hungry girl to church festival. The oil in which it was done was fusil-oil. and the brush was the touch of nature. And now. as he wanders of through the backyard of memory, how he must kick himself. metaphorically. for making such an old mule of himself We live to learn that we may learn to live.

 The average American citizen is no, happy unless he has some kind of a boom on hand. He do,es an booms. No sooner does the Hon. John Jones achieve victory over his opponent for mayor of rodunk, than some excited par tisan rushes 10 the iron, with the name of the illus,rious Jones coupled with the presidency. or the governorship, at least. The Hon. William Brown. of Yelltown. from his place in the senate, split the ears of the groundlings with tremendous speech in favor of the old flag and an ap- propriation, and the next day the disain- guished gentleman's home organ. the lsllsova Seyeeelsy. nails the name oi Brown to its masthead, and, ia double leads, extols the virtues of its hero, en- larging with splendid enthusiasm upon his eminent fitness for the presidential of flee, and his manifest superiority to all opposition. This sort of thing is quite common. We have done some ot it our self. The Voorhees boom for president, in 1878, was an inspiration of this depo- nent, and other booms of a more or les successful character may be traced to the same humble source. Our own indul- geuce in the dissipation, however, has not blinded us to its folly. A little of i, IS exciting, but daily indulgence pro- duces disgust.

 "I have suffered. sir; and yet have been greatly blessed. Heaven hath sent 10 me friend who has been a helper and comforter indeed. An , few are the friends like him.' "Is he 2 relatiyef" asked Mir. Ral- com.
 Mo- replied the widow. He is ours by no tie of k;n-only by the ties ol love and goodwill. He was lacks play mate and chum. His own mother died long ago, and often, when Jack was a, home, he made our cot his home for weeks at time When Jack went away the last time, he said to his friend-it seems as though he had a premonition of coming evil. even then-he said Casper, if anything happens to me, you will be kind to my mother?' He prom issd, and, O! how faithfully the prom ise-"
 Here the widows feelings overcame her, and she bowed her head 10 wipe away her tears.

 Does he live in our ,own?" asked Balcom.
 .Yes. You should know him. He is employed at the mills. His name is Cas- per wellfieet.
 Alter a li.ile reelection, Mir. Balcom said 1:
 Il am glad we have found you, Han nah and am glad Casper is you friend can make his labor of serving you lighter

 Casper tried to speak, but his words were ineoherent. "I mis)udged you, my boy, pursued the agent. My standard was at fault bu, my eyes have been opened. Las, even- ing 1 called upon Mrs Athoott. She was my schoolmate in the other years
 And then Casper understood: and the gathering moisture in his clear blue eyes told how grateful he was.
 And during the day NIT. Balcom found himself many times repeating the words of holy writ-they came unbidden 10 his lips:
 .' Pure religion and undehled before God and the Father, is this: To visit the fatherless and widows in their affiictions and to keep himself unspoited from the world. .'-Erfhangf.
