American Girls Marrying in Europe.

\ New England man Of my acquaint-
ance, whose daughter was travelling in Eu-
rope received word that the daughter had
become engaged to be married to French
man, reported TO be Of high social position
In time the father went over to France
to assist in completing the marriage
He found on reaching Paris that the bride
groom demanded that there should be q
settlement upon him by this father Of a
large amount of money before he would
take the daughter The tather was indig-
nant, and finally succeeded in cXtri-
eating the daughter from her con
tract and out of the hands OF the
French fortune-huuter and getting her
home in safety. 1t is quite well under

SUNDAY EASY CHAIR.
Coming.

Coming.
AT even. or At midnight, or at the eock-crow
ing, orin the morning"
1t may be in the evening
When the work of the day is done.
And you have time TO sit in the twilight
And watch the sinking sun,
While the long, bright day dies slowly
over the sea-
And the hour grows quiet and holy
With thoughts of me;
While you hear the village children
Passing along the street.
Among those thronging footsteps
May come the sound OF my feet;
Therefore tell you-Watch
BY the light of the evening star,
When the room is growing dusky
As the clouds afar:
Let the door be on the latch
In your home,
For ii may be through the cleaning
will come.
It may be when the midnight
Is heavy upon the land,
And the black waves lying dumbly
Along the sand
When the moonless night draws close,
And the lights are not in the house,
When the fire burns low and red,
And the watch is ticking loudly
Beside the bed
Though you sleep, tired out, on your couch,
Still your heart must wait and watch
In the dark room,
For il may be ut midnight
l viii come.
II may be at the eock-crow
When the night is dying slowly
In the sky,
And the sea looks calm and holy,
Waiting for the dawn
OF the golden sun,
Which draweth nigh;
When the mists are on the valleys shading
The rivers chill,
And my morning star is fading, fading
Over the hill;
Behold say to you-Watch
Let the door be on the latch
In your home,
In the chill before the dawning,
Between the night and morning,
may come.
II may be in the morning
When the sun is bright and strong,
And the dew is glittcTing sharply
over the little lawn
When the waves are laughing loudly
Along the shore,
And the birds are singing sweetly
About the door,
With Il long days work before you,
You rise up with the sun.
And the neighborS come in TO talk little
OF all that must be done;
But remember that may be the next
To come in nj the door.
To call you from your busy work,
For cVermOre;
As you work your heart must watch,
For the door Is on the latch
In your room,
And it may be in the morning

Milk Diet.

Milk should enter largely into the diet OF
children. 1t contains caseine, or flesh
forming materials; cream and sugar, which
are heat producers; mineral salts, for the
bOny structure, and water as a solvent for
all the cher materials necessary in nutri-
ton. 1t should be used with discretion
however not drunk immOderately. but
taken slowly as food, after the pattern given
by nature. Milk as taken is a fluid, but as
soon as it meets the acid of the gastric Juice
1t Is changed to soft, curdy, cheese-like
substance, and then must be digested, and
the stomach is OvertaSked if too much be
taken ut once. \ large glass of milk swal-
lowed suddenly will form in the stomach a
lump of dense, cheesy curd, which may
even prove fatal to 4 weak stomach. Under
the action of the stomach this checsy mass
Will turn over and over like heavy weight,
and as the gastric juice can only attack lis
surface IL di@cstS very slowly. But this
same milk, taken slowly or with dry toast
light rolls or soft, dry porridge, forms po-
rous lump through which the gastric juice
can easily pass, and which breaks up every
time the stomach turns il over. Milk
should be slightly sailed and eaten with
breadStutis or slipped by the spoonful
Cow milk produces less heat than human
milk; child would grow thin upon it Jn-
less little sugar We're added. Wheat tiouI
has such an excess OF heat-producjng mate
rial a. would fatten a child unduly, and
should have cow milk added to il 10 re
duce its fatJeniug power.

THE LOST TREASURE

We were sitting in the twilight,
Just at the close of day,
And the clock upon the mantle
licked the weary hours away
The night, dark and dreary one.
The wind blew bleak and wild,
As we kept our lonely vigil
Ger our little sleeping child.
Just six years this little sunbeam
Our lowly cot had blessed,
But now Death the snowy eyelids
Der the hazel eyes had pressed
In the past her merry laughter
Was heard through room and hall,
And upon the porch and stairway.
Lightly did her footsteps fall.
But the sweet voice, with its laughter,
LIS hushed in silent rest,
And no more are heard the footsteps
In the home that once they blessed
And still sad hearts must long and wait
The cruel turn of fate,
While she has gone from out their sight
Beyond the Heavenly Gate.
But when our days on earth are gone,
And we are freed from care,
And through the Golden Gate we pass,
We will meet our darling there.

The number OF American ladies in London
society steadily increases, but it is not often
that American gentlemen allow 50 gifted q
lady 10 wed in England as the one | am
about to mention. This is Mrs. NS,anton-
Batch, a daughter of the distinguished
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, OF New York.
This lady, recently married to gentleman
in Basingsto!le, recently made her first ap-
pearance in London as n public speaker.
1t was a tea-mceting held to promote the
success of M Woodais amendment to tie

suffrage. Professor Hunter, Mrs. Ashton
Dixie and other practjced speakers had add

when this girlish and lovely young wife
arose and for about twenty minutes held
the audience cntrauccd rs if by some strain
Of Music. Her voice Is at once pathetic
