from it ever since. About four

sis, which kept me in bed six
months, and the best doctors

live. Isuffered fearfully from
indigestion, and for over two
years could not eat solid food

TWO NYMPHS.

When turns the year a crescent face Upon the world as spring draws nigh, And rosies OCT the morning slopes, AHd stirs the depths of de~y sky, Floats a form of phantom grace Along the shores. before the breeEe. And from her boat full many a note She breathes along the morning seas, While clouds of swallows, blithe with youth, Tn the mild light sail up the south. Calm mountains fiecked with rainy green Above the wheaton plains are seen. Slowly the rivulei's bubbles pass Through raln-scattered blades of sun arm
 grass;
 The oak-wreath on the alter lies, With milk and honey, cake and wine: And hamlet folk beneath iis smoke Whose pillar bluely scars the skies. With gladsome feet and carols sweet Circling, praise the spring divine When autumn $ yellow leagues of shores, And quiet sul,ry harvest time In fields through which the sickle scores. And erimsoning orchards-nears its prime Comes a nymph out of the wood. Where amber glories siit and cross. And apples sleep on golden moss Who.e cheek, flushed dark @.ih deep stunned
 blood,
 G.ows, pacing down beneath ] crown Or ~allfio~ers streaked @th yellow and
 brown,
 Eyed ike Arabia $ tsil ghi, rolled ln garments fich 6anges' gold S,ll seen where broo3s ihc slumhfoas rly ln,i the broad sin down he bay Has dipped m cbasms oi cooling day. Then floats on mellow wind afar. To sleep in gimmering rooted cave Bcs .e the long luxurious Aase. Beside her dusk and splendid star.

Of Minor Consideration
Detroit Ckaf.

Distance nowadays is a minor con- siderauon-in Iact eNcep, as a matter of expense ii IS not taken into consideration al all, or al bes, only makes a small figure in the calculations of business eyes. The Presiden, of the United States and the Emperor of Brazil held a con- versation with each other. by telegraph. the other day. the one being in Newport and the other in Rio Janeiro. From Brazil the poin, of connection which puts the line in communication with the Western Unions system, is at Galveston, Texas, which IS the northern terminus of system of cables representing ,.6io miles of submarine cables and ,67 miles of line in exclusive connection with 10000 miles of wire in Mexico, Central and South America. It is expected that this American company will get a large share of the European traffic. as the Atlantic cables are interested in bringing European messages via the Galveston route Messages have been transmitted between Galveston and Valparaiso inside of an hour, and it is expected ,ha, Brazilian messages will be transmitted inside of two hours.
