THE ENDLESS JOURNEY.

when our feet become heavy and weary
On the valleys and mountains Of life,
And the road has grown dusty and dreary,
And we grOan in the struggle and strife,
We halt on the difficult pathway,
Glance back over valley and plain,
And sigh with 4 sorrowfuI longing
To travel the journey again.
For we know in the past there are pleasures,
And seasons Of Joy and delight,
While before all is doubling and darkness,
And dread Of the groom and the night;
All bright sunny spots we remember
How little we thought Of them then 4?
But now we are looking and longing
To rest in those places again.
But vain Of the vainest is signing,
Our course must be forward and on:
We cannot turn back on the journey,
We cannot enjoy what is gone.
Let us hope, then, as onward we travel,
That oases may brighten the plain,
That our road be beside the sweet waters,
Though we may not begin it again.
For existence forever goes upward
From the hill to the mountain we rise,
On. on, DER invisible SUBMITS,
To land in the limitless skies,
Strive on, then, with courage mistaken
True labor is never in vain
Nor glance with regret at the pathway
No mortal can travel again.

LeprOsy in the United States.

When we remember that leprosy
prevailed in Great Britain and other
countries, now nearly or quite free
from it, in comparatively recent times;
when we take into account the con-
sideraleb amount of Scandinavian
immigration to our shores now going
on; and above all when we reflect
that the policy of isolation pursued
by communities in which the disease
is rife, is not an ostracism of the leper
merely on account of his loathesome-
ness, but wholesome precaution for
general safety, founded on the con-
viction that leprosy is contagious,
which conviction is forcing itselfmore
on those who have made the matter a
subject of scientific study-when we
take all these things into considera-
ton, and couple them with the grim
fact that leprosy leads infallibly to %
death in a few years, we may well
ask if tits not desirable for us as apeo-
ple, and if it is. not incumbent
on the Government, to take steps to
prevent the spread of the disease IN
this country. To be sure the con-
tagiousness of leprosy is not the rank
communicating of the accute infec-
tious disease, but that it is contagious
to such degree as to make it unsafe
to allow its victims to go in and out
among their fellow-men year after
wear, seems to admit of little If any
question. Certainly, the community
should give itself the benefit OF what
ever doubt there may be in the case
and ruthlessly isolate the leper, and
as regards the leprous Immigrants
forbid them landing on oar shores

shanty saloon, covered with inscrip-
tons in an amateurish lettering,
stands alone little distance from the
track. Surely the keeper of it must
consume his own drinks, and lead A
melancholy existence unprecedented
by bar-keepers. No; a horseman in
Mexican accountrements dashes
across theplain where musthe
dash from, and how he should be rid
ing anything but the mummy of a
dolphin or seahorse here in the very
bottom of the sea itself, lisa mystery
and pulls up there, and enters. And
it further appears that from this place
a stage starts every other day for
points on the Colorado River, and
for Prescott, the remote capitol of
Arizona Territory. This is but a
faint survival of the hustle which once
reigned before the day of the railroad,
when the route of the southern over
land mail was hither, and long trains
of emigrants and freight wagons,
carrying water in casks for two or
three days supply, passed continual
ly over these wastes east and west.
Nothing would appear more de-
pressing on general principals than
such a country, but as a matter of
fact it is entertaining instead. 1t is
stimulus to the curiosity, and ends
by having a real fascination. One
would not wish to be abandoned
alone in it without resour ces, it is
true, but he does not tire looking at
it from a car window. Its blazing
dryness is in it's favor. 1t is disin-
fectant and preservative. Perhaps
there can never be the most poignant
extreme of sadness in the scenes with
out the element of decay by damp
ness. 1t is chemical and not botan-
ical processes that are principally 60
ing on. Wonders of almost any sort
may be expected. Phantoms might
fit about over it, hiding among the
frequent mlrages.
A considerable part of Arizona as
we'll is of the same character, but it
is estimated by competent authority
that with irrigation thirty-seven per
cent. can be redeemed for agriculture,
and sixty per cent. for pasturage. 1t
may be called to mind that even the
apparently hopeless bottom of the
Colorado Desert, below the level of
the sea, is also below the level of the
Colorado River, and that water from
this copious stream might be spared
for it, and spread over it with com
parative ease. The truly patriotic
resident of Arizona is by no means
ashamed of his encompassing desert,
and with reason. 1t is in reality a
laboratory of useful products. Paper
is made from the yucca, or Spanish,
bayonet, which abounds in certain
parts of it. There are tracts of salt,
borax, gypsum, sulphur, asbestos, and
kaolin, and quarries of pumice stone,
only waiting for shipment. 1t is
maintained also that it har deposits
of the same precious metals which,
mined in places where water is more
accessible, have given the Territory
the fame it enjoys.

Pleasant for Smokers.

Another of the humble industries of
New York is the collection of cigar
stumps from street and gutter. Some
half dozen Italians make business OF
buying them from the scavengers who
live in the italian quarter of this city.
An active boy or girl will collect half q
bushel of stumps in an hour or so, the
work being done from daylight to eight
o'clock, and during that time all the
principal streets in the heart of the city
are CLEANED. The children receive no
fixed price for the stumps, but ten or
fifteen cents is usually paid. The buy
ers wash the filthiest and spread them
out to dry. A day or so later they
are crumbled into shreds, and are al
lowed to dry twenty-four hours longer
before being packed in flour barrels
and shipped to New York. A barrel OF
this stump tobacco is worth two dollars
and a half, but few years ago, when
there was a strong demand for 1T IN
Philadelphia, the italian dryers recelv-
ed a little more for it. The stumps
were formerly made into snuff in Phila-
delphia, but this filthy grade of tobac-
co is now bought by manufacturers OF
cigarettes and fine cut chewing tobacco.
A wholesale tobacconist of many years
experience declares that when the
stump tobacco is ground, bleached,
favored and made up, into cigarette pa
per, no one but an expert can detect the
difference between it and new leaf. All
of which must be exceedingly pleasant
for the cigarette consumer.-ItdUeTty

WHITE OAK, Tex, March being
at the house of Mr.. Franklin in Titus
county, mention was made of the
Texas giant, and l learned he was
near neighbor of my host. Mr.. +.
kindly consented to accompany me to
his house. After entering, / observ-
ed the windows and doors were as
low or lower than usual, but the loft
was quite high, being laid cross wise
with the floor, the ends of the planks
resting upon the side plates of the
room and two joists, which rested on
the end plates, the house having the
gables weather boarded. s
THE GIANT SAT SMOKING HIS PIPE:
While l ruminated on the'mode of
approaching him, 1 took notice that
he did not appear very tall as he
sat, yet my friend who sat next to
him, man of usual height, seemed
only as half-grown boy. Pencil in
hand, l said to him:
"Mr. Franklin said you would be
willing to give me items of interest in
regard to yourself in which the public
will take an INTEREST,""
"Oh, certainly: l was born in

Missouri, Morgan county, in 1888.
In 1850 went to California by Over

Chagres to New Orleans on the Fal-
con. From New OrleansI returned
to Missouri, and was busy farming
mostly until the war broke out. March
8, 1858, l married Miss Mary T.
Thurston, my first cousin. She has
borne me four children-all boys.
Only one is living. One lived to be

"Mr. Thurston," said I, "You are
of course, posted about tall men?"
Somewhat so. I think there is a
man near Greenville, Texas, who is 6
feet Sinches. Isaw the Norwegian giant
in St. Louis, I think, in 1857. He was
keeping bar. 1 asked him to measure
with me, but he declined. I treated
him, stood close to him. 1 think he
was no higher than my eyes. 1 saw
Jim Porter, the Kentucky giant. He
was not as high as I am, l think he
lacked an inch and a half. Mrs.
Briggs, the low woman who Travelled
with him, said he was not as high as
I am. The New York Sun says the
