Queen Victoria, career is cited as
an instance of what woman can do.
For fifty odd years her preniers and
officers of state succeeded in keeping
her mouth closed, and 50 directed her
official walk As TO keep he best foot
foremost. Being a woman, however,
il was only a question of lime until
she asserted herself. That time came
when John Brown, the tlnnkv, died.
The premiers and mobiles of high estate
could no longer seal those womanly
lips. nor hold that wominly tongne IN
abeyance. She talked, indul ged in
poetry, built cairns and wrote book
full of twaddlr. Since then Victoria
j. regarded AS Il woman with the resi-
of them. In fact she is accused OF
having big feet, and of being fat and
coarse, illtempered and cranky. But
these do moi make her any less model
woman. Are her freaks and cranks
not thoroughly womanish' She
would be phenomenal woman were
she not so.

AnecAOts of Garfield.

as President of the United States, John

Ash,ahula, boarded the train. He bad
been one of Gartield's pupils when the
latter taught in title log scnool. house
in the backwoods. As the teacher
boarded with Mr.. BIS mother, they
had been more intimate than Is usual
with master and scholar.
Many significant stories were told
when they met which illustrated the
hard struggles of the future President
in his youth. One WAS, that on some
occasion he was invited to country
party, but on the very day it WAS to
take place he split al the knee one leg
of his trousers He had but one pair
of very coarse jeans, and no money To
buy another. Garfield had set his
heart on going to tie merry-making,
and was bitterly disappointed.
"You go to bed" said his hostess,
and let me sec what | can do"
The teacher obeyed, and in an hour
| received his trousers so neatly darned

cried out
! Never mind, Mr. Garfield! When
you're IA great man in the Ohio Legis-

The Old HOMESTEAD.


Twas when the sunset flushes
Gildcd the dear old home,
When twllight's 5 solemn bushes
Babe holy memories come,
We fingered, fondly turning
Toward the spot we loved 80 well,
With sad and tender yearning,
To say our last farewell.
No more for us the garden
And love-Wreathed rooms to roam;
The stranger there is warden
No. no. tbs not his nomel
II hath no memories bringing
For him JOY kin to pain;
For him no echoes ringing
Shall bring the loved again.
Sweet homc. dear heme! e'erhowing
With prec Gus memories!

Shall bring more blest than these,
A dear, bria hi plctihe ever
As then, when sunset fell,

Well love; sweet home. farewell!

Nor rescue her from the spray;

We began with little filtration,
For facilities all we're in reach;
There were waltzts without limitation,
And long moonlight strolls on the beach.

Her bright, intellectual look,
Lay pure traits, as shine thro' clear water
The sands In the bed OF brook.
And knowing, soon grew to love her,
:. But the long, golden days passed on
Ere Id courage TO speak; when sought her,
Like leaf In the storm she was gone.
Ny dear little friend Of season-
My sunbeam across lifes pathway
cannot forget her, nor reason
My thoughts Of regret quite away.
Her sweet face Ia ever before me;
hear her light step by my side;
Then wake t.om the dream that IL DER me,
To know that our lives still divide.
I scarcely dare hope that 1t cost her
One moment Of sorrow or pain;
But, alas well know have lost her,
And never may hnd her again.
