When evening cometh on.

When evening cometh on.
When evening cometh on,
Loosed from the days long toll, the clank-
ing teams
With hating steps pass on their Iostling
Their gearings glinted by the waning
beams;
Close by their heels the heedfuI collie strays;
All slowly fading in a land Of dreams
TRANSPORTED spectreS of the shrOudng haze.
Thus from life field the heart fond hope
doth fade,
Thus doth the weary spirit seek the shade,
When evening cOmeth on.
When evening cometh on,
Across the dotted fields of gathered grain
The soul of summer breathes deep repose,
Mysterious murmurings mingle on the
plain,
And from the blurred and blended brake
The undulatng echoes of some strain
Once heard in paradise, perchance-who
knows?
But now the whispering memory sadly
StrayS
Along the dim rows of the rustling maize
When evening cometh on.
When evening cometh on,
Anon there spreads upon the lingering air
The musk of .weedy slopes and grasses dank
And odorS from far fields unseen but fair
With scent of flowers from many shadowy
bank.
o, lost Elys'u art thou hiding there?
Flows yet that crystal stream whereof 1
drank,
All, .wild-eyed Memory, fly from nights
depair;
Thy strong wings droop with heavier
weight Of care
When evening cometh on.
When evening cometh on,
No sounding phrase can set the heart at
rest,
The settling gloom that creeps by wood
The bars that lie along the smouldering
west
The tall and lonely silent trees that seem
TO mock the grooming earth and turn to
This wayerng flame this agonizing dream,
All, all bring sorrow as the clouds bring
And eyermore lifes struggle seemeth vain
When evening cometh on.
When evening cometh on,
Anear doth Life stand by the great I'M
known,
In darkness reaching out her sentient hands;
PHILOSOPHERS and creeds alike are thrown
Beneath her feet, and question ng she stands
Close on the brink, unfearing and alone,
And lists the dull wave breaking on the
sands,
Albeit her thoughtful eyes are filled with
tears,
So lonely and so sad the sound she hears,
g.. When evening cometh on.
When evening cometh on,
Vain seems the world, and vainer wise
All COlOrS vanish when the sun goeth down.
Fame purple mantle some proud soul
hath caught,
No better seems than doth the earth-stained
gown
Worn by Content. All names shall be for
got.
Death pucks the stars to deck his sable
crown.
The fair cnchantment of the golden day
Far through the vale of shadows melt away
When evening cOmeth on.
When evening cometh on,
Love, only love- can stay the sinking soul
And smooth thoughts racking fever from
the brow:
The wounded heart Love only can console.
Whatever brings balm for sorrow now.
So must it be while this veXed earth shall
roll.
Take then the portion which the gods allow.
Dear heart, may l at last on thy warm
breast
Sink to forgetfulnesS and lent rest
When evening cometh on?

Left Eyes,

And the other:
Il ght Eyes,
Assorted.

Assorted.
The doctor opened the boxes and
there resting on soft beds of tissue
paper, were hundreds of left and right
eyes. They We're Of every shape size
and color imaginable, aud looked
perfectly natural in their upward gaze.
The eye was simply a conco-convex
shell, and the doctor explained that the
natural working and turning of the arti-
fetal eye was not due to improved
mechanism, but simply to the modern
method of operating on the genuine
eye. Instead of formerly only a part
was removed, and the artificial organ
was fitted on the stump, which would
continue to move with the muscles.
do they ever wear out?'
ooh, yes, that's the beauty of them.
The acidity of the tear of the human
eye VIII eat up glass. and itmakes them
rough and honcv-cOmbed like sand
stone. They usually last year and
cost ten dollars apiece. Many wearers
buy two or three at a time to have them
on hand in case of an accident"
Can a person cry just as well with
the artificial eye?"
Yes. The trouble is they. usually
cry great deal more from the I'M
natural irritation. The artificial eve is
made from a bulb of glass having a
slight Quality blown, on the end OF a
rod about the size of a pencil. From
the sphere thus blown a segment is
hattened out for the iris and pupil A
circular patch of black pigment in the
centre forms the pupil. The painting
of the iris is done with delicate enamel
colors. and then bulb of clear crystal
glass is placed over it. The red veins
are traced with fine films of red glass
laid on and fused. Probably over ten
thousand people in the United States
wear artificial eyes"
DR.. William Siemens devised an arti-
fetal eye which is sensitive to light and
to differences in color, gives signs of
fatigue when subjected to prolonged
action of light, and regains its strength
after resting with closed lid and, by an
electro-magnet attachment, may be
made to close itself involuntarily at a
vivid flash. Such an eve would be
worth having. 1t is well-known, too,
that the vibrations of musical tones
may by ordinary conducting wires be
transmitted and delivered to the ear;
and it remains to be seen, SAYS DR..
SemenS, whether light vibrations may
not be transmitted to the brain in the
absence of the natural eye.-N Y. Mail

Young girls wear sailor hats this fall;

Everybody takes considerable in
terest in his eyes" said a prominent
oculist, land | don't think any other
portion of the human anatomy is
worthy of more attention. Yet it is
more abused than any other organ.
From early infancy it is treated shame,
fully. The baby's knuckles poke it
and the lids are frequently made to
open to expose it to the view of admir-
ing relatives and friends. Boyhood's
days bring books to be read and lessons
to be worked into the brain through its
medium. Youth fills it with tobacco
smoke in the one sex and needlework
and novels in the other. In maturity il
is abused of necessity by the use of
spectacles. A poor eye is better than
no eye at ali. Science has made the
deaf to hear by means of various little
instruments. Manufactured teeth often
serve the purpose better than the origi-
mails, and patent working arms and legs
often replace the natural members.
An eye once lost to its sense of SIGHT
can never be replaced by anything that
will restore that sense. Artificial eyes
have existed as long as there has been
any demand for them. Step this

The fame like purpeshadowed clouds arise;
Cooler and bamierdoth the soft wind sigh,
LOvelier lOnelier to our wondering eyes
The sottenng landscape seems. The swal-

Swift through the radiant vault; the field

His thrilling, sweet farewell; and twilight

When evening cometh on,
Deeper and DREAMER grows the slumber-

Darker and drearier spreads the bristlng

Bluer and heavier roll the hills that swell
In movclcss waves against the shimmerng

Out from their haunts the insect hordes,
that dwell
Unseen by day, come thrOnging forth to hold
Their feeting hour of revel, and by the
pool
Soft pipings rise up from the grasses cool,
When evening COmeth on.
When evening cometh on,
Along their well-known paths with heavier
tread
The sad-eyed, lettering kline unurged return;
The peaceful sheep, by unseen shepherds

Where Natures hand their wholesome

IUEEPH PULITZER.

The success of Joseph Pulitzer is
striking example OF what pluck and
perseverance will do. Coming to
America from Germany twenty years
ago, lie WAS not only without great
means, but was handicapped by being
unable to speak a word of our Ian
guage. In the face of all this he has
managed to achieve a success almost
unparalleled in the annals of journal
ism. Not only is he the owner of the
St. Louis Globe Dispatch, a most
valuable newspaper property, but he
has acquired the proprietary right in
tho New York World, and in one year
after his acquisition he transposed
that paper from one of the poorest
and most Improbable to ono of the
best and most rcmunerative sheets Of
the metropolis. In the Blaine Glove
land campaign Mr.. Pulitzer espouscd
the cause of Cleveland, and did most
effective work in his behalf. The
great success Of the World is without
question due to the illustrations that
appear in it's Saturday and Sunday
editions. Mr.. Pulitzer, with his usual
keenness, saw that pictorial repre-.
sentation of a subject, or a portrait
OF prominent man, possessed far
greater interest to the public than a
mere pen picture, aud he accordingly
embellished his pages with the por-
traits Of local and national celebrities.
In 1884 Mr.. Pulitzer was chosen to
represent New York in Congress, and
he will doubtless make record there
during the next session. But what
brings him most prominently before
the public at this time is his connec-
ton with the Bartholdi Statue Pedes-
tai Fund. Since the statue Of "Lib.
erty Enlishtening the World" was
presented to the people Of the United
States by the sculptor, Bartholdi,
spssmoaic efforts have been made t.
collect enough funds to complete the
pedestal. Concerts and entertain
ments have been given, the aristocrats
Of New York appealed to, and al.
though considerable funds We're raised,
there still lacked some 100000. This
Mr.. Pulitzer set to work to raise, and
with the aid of the people through
popular contributions Of small sums,
raised between $4,000 and $4,000.
This was a veritable triumph for the
people, aud the pedestal is in fair
way to completion.
