led man, possessed Of sufficient intelligence
to warrant his becoming candidate for an
elective Office, entered the race with full
determination to win. He ran 20 well his
opponent was barely one vote ahead. That
single vote left Bridges without the Office
he had spent every available dollar to gain.
Instead of accepting the situation like .
philosopher and going bravely to work to
replenish his exhausted exchequer, while
comforting his wife with the assurance that
where one man gains another must lose, he
has ever since sought to drown his dissp-
polntment in the winecu His sensitive
spirit could not brook defeat, his heart was
wounded to the core. That was one year
ago. Now his little daughters, children
whose piping treble should be heard 10 the
nursery alone, are facing the world he fed
from and singing their poor little songs to
earn bread, while he is at home drunk a.
boiled owl.
Were Scion, he and all others Of his
iIk should be marched into an establish
meut partaking of the nature Of Washing
tonian Home, with hard labor, solitary
confinement amendment to its bylaws.
Competent physicians should constantly
treat the inmates, competent taskmasters
should direct their labors, . proportion of
the proceeds to 60 to their families. Then
if after reasonable period their o'erween-
ing taste for liquor was supplanted by q
love for responsibility and manhood, I
should judge their sensitive retiring spirits
sufficiently strengthened and allow them to
face the world and their families. Wise
men say 1t takes seven years to mako u
over but should be merciful and begin
with five, the length of the term to be in
creased with each repetition of the offense.
Maybe am visionary out here in this

Christmas Musing.

CACHE, Dec. IA, 1884.
DEAR BUILETIN:-On again We are
upon the eve of Chr stmas, that season
which to the seniors seems oft recurring,
but to the Juveniles a long way apart, a
period favorable of old to slippers burden
ed with impossible flowers and dressing
gowns without any fit for the gentlemen,
| and French bon bons for the ladies.
Nowadays the friendly little tokens CIV
en- 10 memory of the great gift to the
world over eighteen hundred years ago are
in most instances more practical. Beauti-
full cards and exquisitely illuminated poems
are but two of Hundreds Of dainty things to
be found by those in search of souvenirs
that will not melt away. That the en-
broidery fever RACES, am now we'll aware,
to be sure, having met with it's effects the
last time was at Wetaug. Every woman
in the town has given up washing her
children's faces and combing her own hair
for that dear delightful arrasene and that
charming new Kensington stitch.
The Kensngton work looks to me very
like the silk embroidery l used on some
slippers for Darius the first Christmas l
knew him. And the arrasene looks as
though the women had torn up their air
castles and worked the pond.lilies with the
material. You know they were made of
muslin stripped up fine and raveled out to
few threads, twisted enough to look pretty.
Darius niece made me one have kept for
years and think a great deal Of But OF
course Mrs. BULLETIN has one in her best
room too, they make such nice fly roosts.
No doubt the arrasene has reached Cairo
by this time, so need not say more.
I did not start out to tell all know
about fancy work anyway. What l aimed
to say is this: While we are busying our
selves with ove-tokens for those near and
dear to US, let US not forget that there are
those for whom there 10 no such affection
ate thoughtfulness, or rather, no such proof
Of thoughtfulness. Let us not fail to un-
derstand that 10 the first instance onr Civ
ing is a specie Of seishness after all, since
in doing so it is often to please ourselves.
For it Is pleasure to witness the height.

cipients Of our kindness, as well az to be
able TO bestow their favors where their
beauty or fitness are constant reminder to
US Of our generosity.
ut is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive." Therefore let US not employ all our
time and means 10 such ways as to entirely
exclude the needy. once heard an old
gentleman say that Of all the dinner parties
ever given In his house the most satisfacto-
ry to him were those TO which INDECENT
widows and orphans alone were invited.
Most of US are forced to be more modest In
our giving, but many basketful, many q
substantial favor could be sent out from our
supplies If our hearts throbbed with the
right impulses. "The roor 20 have with
you always"
What a strange world this isl Better

occurred to me while listening to the baby
voices Of the Bridges children 10 St. Louis

The swallowtail Point Lighthouse.

The light in the lighthouse on Swallow
tail Point, on the northern end of Grand
Manan, is the highest and most powerful in
the Dominion of Canada. The lighthouse
is situated on the rocks, eighty-fve feet
out of water. 1t is of wood, painted white,
and is fastened down with heavy cables.
1t is 80 feet in circumference at the base,
and 60 feet high, making in all 145 feet
above the level of the sea- The light con-
sists of eleven lamps, placed against silver
plated rehectors, and consumes about 1000
gallons of oil annually. 1t is expected that
large fog-bell will soon be added to the
station. Some idea of the fury of the
storms which rage around Swallow-Tail
Ledge in winter, can be formed from the
fact that, although the light is las feet
above the seas, the spray dashes over the
lantern and flies white like snowdrift
across the path leading to the keepers
dwelling, so that he has to watch his op-
portunity to run from one point to the
other. The light was finished in 1860,
and but one keeper, Mr.. Kent, has been
in charge ever since, he being only 20
years old at the time of his appointment

oh, the radiant joy that beamed over his
poor, wan face as he murmured
"Thank God, thank God, you are all my
own, my Ste"
L stole away then. l wanted to hide
myself from their sight How dreadfully
had wronged her. Could she ever for
give me?
Well, did the most sensible thing |
could; l made clean breast of everything,
and Ste forgave me fully and freely, with
her slender arms around my neck, and in
her great black eyes an honest affection,
and she laughed in her own elfsh, merry
fashion as she said
$50 you thought could look at any one
else in the world when had Ger, my own,
own Ger, to look at and love, with all my
might and main ?"
Gerald is quite resigned to the will of
heaven now. True, he cannot put his
thoughts ON canvas, but he tells them to
Ste, and she, in her charming manner,
weaves them into romances that win her
fame and give us luxuries in our home that
we never had before.
How much she gives us, does little Ste,
and the best gift of all is her love-it is so
true, SO unselfsh.
She has given us something else, too, to
brighten the old house. 1t is tiny boy,
with golden curls and large, serious blue
eyes, like Gerald's, and the sweetest smile,
like his mother. They have christened
him Raymond, after Ste's father, but he is
snatch of sunshine to us all, so we call
him Cray"
My life is devoted to him. love him
with love devoid of selfshness-a love
purified by experience and suffering and
remorse.

Railroads up Mountains.

From Demorest's Monthly for February.
America is the scene of many notable
railway enterprises. We have such di-
versity of surface that great engineering
difficulties have to be overcome which are
not thought of in other countries. One
of the most difficult feats is to get to the
top of mountain in steam car. This
has been accomplished frequently, how
ever, and by different devices, At Mount
Washington the railway climbs the uprise,
advancing toward like cat climbing tree.
The iron clamps or claws are pulled up by
main force 1t isa novel sensation to ascend
Mount Washington, while the descent
seems still more perilous. At Central City,
Colorado, different method obtains. The
cars move forward, then backward, but
each change switches them off to higher
elevation. After plying to and fro, like
bobbin in weaver's loom, the cars at length
reach the top of the mountain. 1t is now
proposed to build railroad to the top of
Pixies Peak, the summit of which is IA 900
feet above the sea level-that is, 5000
feet higher than Mount Washington. In
this case the road will run around the
mountain, in a sort Of spiral path until it
reaches the top. The entire distance from
the base to the summit will prabably be
forty miles When completed, the road
will be one of the wonders of the country,
for the traveller in ascending Pixies Peak
will meet at every mile new scene, the
one more picturesque than the other.
The first twelve miles will be of surprising
beauty. Camping grounds will be located
at various points, where people can live in
tents enjoying the pure air and weird
grandeur of the Rocky Mountains, while
in constant receipt by railway of all the
necessities and some of the luxuries obtained
in large cities. Another mountain railway
will be up the Catskills, which will carry
travellers TO some of the grandest and most
picturesque scenery in the world. An in
genious dreamer predicts the construction
of railway extending from Alaska to
Patagonia and running on the top of the
mountain ranges of North and South Amer
lea. Who dare say that even this wild
scheme may not some day be realized?
