ON TEE BRIDGE.

1t was young Robin and his love
Stood on bridge at even-scng;
Nights countless lamps were lit ABOVE,
Below the streamlet slid along.
Across the rail she lightly leant,
And gazed into the quiet stream,
Wherein she saw with deep content
The buried stars reflected CLEAN;
But never stars shone half as bright
AS Elsie's eyes that summer night
Around her taper waist an arm
Her gallant 10 lin's-gently lay;
In place aud hour there lurked a charm
That owned no kinship to the day.
Familiar sounds upon the gale
Were softly waited to the ear,
And from the darkness of the vale
The lovo.lorn mnvis iuted clear;
But sweeter than the song he sung
The words that tremhled on her tongue.
The shadows deepen in the dell;
Weird bats athwars the water play;
And on the fitful breeZe5 swell
The village church bells far away.
Through all the wIndings of the glade,
The stately trees, like phantoms stand
Whilst love was leading man and maid
Far onwards into fairyland;
And neither had on earth part,
Save only in the others heart.
Anon, from yonder wooded ridge,
The cold moon climbs the blue expanse,
She glorifies the rustic bridge,
Her beams upon the brooklst dance:
She softly winds about the twain
The radiance OF her liquid light,
AS though, for lovers, she would fain
Create fairer day from night.
Her silver signet-nOthing 10th
She sets upon their plighted troth

FARMERS ARBITRATE, Don't LTTIGATE -
The law favoTs arbitration as peaoeable
and inexpensive method of settling diff
culties. In many of the States there are
statutory provisions, by which judgment
may be rendered on ths award or finding Of
arbitrators, concerning a matter duly SUBJ
mitted to them. It is almost always poss !.
BILE to take case out of Court and submit
it to referees at any stage of it's progress.
In the absence of any statutory provisions,
1t is always lawful for parties to agree to
submit their differences to arbitrators, and
abide by their decision. The agreement to
do so may be either oral or written, but
the latter Is the better way. the form is
not essential, except that the meaning
should be carefully expressed. It ia Gus

EARLY Noq1oas OF NArURE.

Ia all religions there are two great omni-
present relations-of man to nature, to
God, and of man to man. One is the wor-
ship side, the other the moral side. Con-
fining ourselves to the relation of man to
nature, what has the study of early Aryan
myths shown to be mans first conception
of the nature around him? The Hlndoos
have probably wandered less over the face
of the earth, and suffered less, than any
other Aryan people. Their early religious
records are consequently the clearest and
best preserved. From these it appears
that the earliest religion was what Is now
called animism. This is, as you choose,
the soul, ghost, or spirit theory of nature,
and is supposed TO have had Its source in
dreams, the impalpable nature of whose
visions suggested the presence in the
dreamer OF soul distinct from the body.
If the presence of soul could explain
dreams, 1t could equally well be made to
explain such things in himself as man
could not nationally comprehend. The
idea Of his own soul is followed by the idea
of a soul IN every man. From this it is
but short step to the idea of soul or
spirit in nature, to account for mysterious
powers and properties. Thunder and
lightning become the work of spirit
fire, heat and cold the presence of others
and so on through all nature. Wherever
there is something inexplainable, there is
mysterious spirit.
This is the earliest and simplest amin.
ism. Soon, however, unequal forces of
nature suggest unequal spirits behind and
in them, and gradually great and small
spirits develop, some predominating others.
Throughout, all, whesher equal, great or
small, are worshiped on account OF their
mysterious powers. Besides the spirits In
living bodies and in nature, are the souls
released by death, but imagined still to
wander at times about the earth, and to
have some influence on living men, especi-
ally in controlling the fate of their bodily
descendants. From this conception arose
ancestral worship, and the many cere-
monies at the grave intended TO give peace
fui rest beyond, that the departed spirit
might thus be kindly disposed toward his
offspring. A belief in future life was nec-
essary to strong, active people having
tenscious love OF life.-T"Onr Indian
Mythology" in Popular Scisnce.

have been these schools, and so supe

The Normal Schools.

While the appropriation bills were
being discussed at Harrisburg on sec.
ond reading, in the House, there was
a long debate over the bill appropria-
ting 100000 to the Normal schools.
Mr. Sponsler attacked the Normal
schools in long speech, during which
he said he did not favor them, because
the original purpose of these schools
had been lost sight of, and, as at
present run, they were a disgrace to
the State.
Mr.. Mcnamara made violent at
tack upon these schools, CHASING them
as zone of the biggest thieving
schemes under State patronage that
ever had been inaugurated."
How true these charges may be
againgst schools in other districts we do
not know, but they are not appplica-
BILE in the slightest degree to the Nor
NAL school of the sixth district. These
schools have been in operation for
many years, but 1t remained for these
two statesmen to discover that they
are disgrace TO the State" and
thieving schemes No bill of partic-
ulars is given, but the sweeping charge
is made without any evidence what
ever, to back it up. If anybody be-
lieves what these gentlemen say, let
committee of investigation be ap-
pointed forthwith, and if the charges
are true, let every school of the kind
in the State be closed up and if not
true, the honor of the institutions will
be vindicated. Some men object to
giving any of the States money 10
these schools, because it cannot be
used for any political purposes, and
yet the same men raise no objection
to extending the time of Soldiers
Orphans Schools, and giving them
large amounts of money. The Nor
NAL schools are an honor to the State,
and when their fair fame is assailed by
such charges, the proof should be de-
manded.
