Knee DAep.

They calling ''knee deep. knee deep!" onight in
the marsh below,
Down by the bank, where the rank sw0rdgrass and
calarnuS grow;
Like an army of silversmiths forging bells for the
northern spriteS,
And, keeping time to a rhyme, they work thro' the
summer nights.
Steadily up from their swampy forge, the sparks of
the fire flies rise
In the pool whore the wadng lilies make love through
half shut eyes
To the hpp6or-will who scolds like shrew, at the
fluffy owl;
While the nighthawk shufles by, like monk in a
velvet cowl.
And the bat waves inky weft thro the white star
beams that peep
Down through the cypress boughs, where the frogs
all sing knee deep"
Back through the gates of the years. to the scenes
that used to be.
When the world was fenced from heaven by one rose
hedge, and thro
This bourne the blessed angels looked and the as
phodel odors blew.
So these syllables of the song from the singers
among the reeds,
Have made to walk again knee deep in the clover
meadS
And / see the storm king riding the summer clouds
in state,
With his chariot whip of lvid flame and his thunder
blingsgae;
And watch the strong tawny tide, through the flags
like lion creep
Where the frightened inhabitants cling to the PUSHES
and sing knee deep"
Knee deep bend in the rppled creek with buttercup
blooms oerblown,
Like the gold on beauty's billowy breast in color
half hid. half-shown;
Knee deep in the saffron marigod flowers, that prank
the meadows fair
Like procession of Saxon children, blue-eyed and
with yellow hair;
Knee deep in the woreberries, sunbrowned in the
| stand,
With my torn straw hat half filed and quails nest
in my hand;
Knee deep in the topaz chestnut leaves rustic to-
ward the place
Where the pert and upright rabbit sits, washing her
innocent face. .
Song of the quiverng culms and osers! I am wading
again in truth
Knee deep in the stream of Memory that flows from
from the land of youth

lady physician writes us that many people

what is desired in the premises by the medical
ladies themselves in directing an envelope,
signifed; either by the Dr. preceding
or by the M. D.. following. The medical title
or degree being used, the civil title or Miss or
Mrs should be always omitted In conversation
the medical lady is addressed or spoken of as
Doctor So-and So or Doctor exactly as in
the case of medical man. The title 'doctress
it is never, at least in this country, allowable
to use. Many of the younger professional ladies

correct TO omit the medical title, unless it sh all

GAMBLING AT LONG BRANCH.
Phil Days Rival-Catering to Customers of
the Clubhouse.


the Clubhouse.
Correspondence Philadelphia Press.
Perhaps the most extraordinary spectacle to
be seen at any watering place is now attracting
general attention here 1t is the open and bitter
rivalry of two noted gamesters Singularly
enough, they Of the same name, Philip and
John Daily. Philip-of celebrity in Philadelphia
has since he made his Pennsylvania
clubhouse here so gorgeous, had a monopoly Of
the gambling patronage of the swell mob. His
profits have been so large in the past three or
four seasons and he has been permitted to carry
on his business so openly that there has been
talk Of setting up rival establishment for some
time.
To make the chance of beating him reasonably
successful required the possession of pluck, no.
these was John DAILY, of New York. The latter
is proprietor of sumptuous establishment in
Barclay street and is known to sporting men
throughout the country He operated here last
summer as book maker, and his winnings were
sufficiently large to enable him to maintain his
family in great style at an expensive and fash
ionable hotel.
This season he blossoms forth as the lessee of
a handsome cottage round the corner from the
Pennsylvania Clubhouse. Like the Pennsylva-
MIA, it stands boldly out on the drive. 1t has
been elegantly appointed, and through its open
windows one may eaten glimpse of golden wall
paper and crystal chandeliers. A broad drive
leads up the tower-adorned piazza, and special
police officers are stationed the lawn to assist
in the maintenance OF the decoruIn of the estab-
lishment. The place is called tile Long Branch
Club
John DAILY, when he leased the house, made
no secret of his intention to run as rival to his
namesake. AS the first step in the contest, he
secured the services of the grave and elegant
Major" who had presided at Philip Days table
for number of years. Phil, for fear that IN
sophisticated visitors might confuse the two es-
adjustments in their minds, had big tally-ho
coach built as means Of advertising his estab-
lishment, and he now drives out with four
horses at the fashionable hour every afternoon
Several sporting men ride on top He himself
always handles the ribbons and Mr.. Ike Street,
of Philadelphia, occupies the box with him.
Following his usual plan of making all his ex-
penditures here, he had the coach built by Long
Branch wagon-makerS
John DAILY, on his part, appeals less to the
outer than the inner man, and, Il means Of
attracting patrons, he now spreads bounteous
and dainty collation. every night at H. for
nothing Philip has been getting high prices for
the excellent work of his chef ana Ills restaurant
has served as an excuse for ladies and gentle
men who wished to visit the gaming house lie
making pretense of merely indulginc in an
expensive luncheon Some gentlemen who
were playing faro there the other night
were pleasantly surprised to find champagne

Locking the Trunk.

Her trunk is packed; but yet is she
Not free from all distress;
For down the top to meet the lock,
In vain she tries to pssss,
And then her loving spouse she calls
TO sit upon the I'D;
He scowls, well knowing what that means,
But does as he Is bid.
He sits and bumps himself against
The truuk-lid, but in vain.
It will not meet, although he tries
With all his might and main.
lie stands on it, he jumps on it,
lie lies on it and swears;
And struggles until off he two
SuSpender buttons tears.
And when his eyes are hulging out
And twisted is his neck,
AID when his mails are broken off
And all his clothes wreck,
And when he feels that if he makes
One more attempt he'll burst,
She, too. sits on that lid just as
She should have done at first.

without breaking them, that feat ac-

mine, who related the same 10 me. NV friend
was IN the habit of placing his new-ad eggs in
the tea caddy along with the tea but night after
night they were mysteriously removed, and
very naturally, the servants got the blame. One
night, however. my friend was reading at a late
hour, when he heard the scuiiing of rats ascend,

containing the eggs. The thought instantly
flashed across his mind that he had been, per
