MIRROR LAKE.

There are certain excursions made
by all tourists who spend any reason
able length of time at Yosemite, and
one of these is the drive to Mirror
Lake. The average tourist appears
to take it for granted that the lake is
a broad sheet of water reaching up
the valley for miles, and is according
ly disappointed when he finds that it
is only an expansion of Tenays creek
shortly before its confluence with the
Merced river.

this long journey to see Mirror Lake,
when there's good deal bigger lake
not half q mile from South Jones'
vile. Let's 90 back to the hotel, pa,
and get ready for our ride to Gla-
zhure point
The peculiar charm of Mirror Lake
lies in its surroundings. Its counter
part in an ordinary locality would be
only a tranquil, willow-fringed sheet
of water. But while the clear depths
of Mirror Lake continue to reveal
such marvellous pictures, it shores
will be enchanted ground to nature
lovers. The reflections are best
seen before sunrise, and each morn
ing carriages leave the hotel in am
pie season to reach the lake while it
is still in the shadow. The drive is
delightful going up one side of the
river and returning by another road
on the opposite shore; but even in
summer the crisp morning air makes
/ plenty of wraps and carriage robes
a necessity at that early hour. The
road is smooth until you near the lake,
there it is very rocky, and about
June 1, when the river is high, it is
frequently two or three feet unde
water.
1t was on a cool morning in April
that [ first saw Mirror Lake. We
left the carriages a short distance
from the shore and climbed upon a
large rock that sloped the waters
edge, favorite point of view, as /
afterward learned. The dense forest
encroached on the uttermost limit of
the banks, and the air was chill and
damp. We were in the shadow of
the Half-done, directly under that
rock-marvel rising straight up into the
air nearly a mile above us, while in
the water lay its mirrored counterpart.
Tissaack's proud crest barely escap-
ing the rock on which we stood.
Sometimes there is dscernible cur
rent near the middle of the lake, but
that morning the water was clear and
smooth as glass, and mountains of
forests were pictured with absolute
fidelity Vich;'s Magazine.

Beyond Recall.

Could 1 call back the days I've spent in vain,
Or lent to errors that vainly chide,
AS the great Sun recalls the rushing tide,
To sift and freshen for it flow again,
Should 1, like him, with strides of heat and pain
Cleanse from my life the stains which now
abide
Too deep for interposing wells to hide
As it flows swiftly to the shoreless main?
Question, and 1 doubt; nor would I dare
To play the Suns high part on my past hours
And mould their vaporous breath to fresh
young days,
Only to run, perhaps, more foul than fair,
Let their one flow suffice, and Heavenly
powers
Distill and cleanse them to my Makers praise.

The Impossible.

Man cannot draw water from an empty well,
Or trace the stories that gossips tell,
Or gather the sounds of pealing bell.
Man never can stop the billow's roar,
Nor chain the winds till they blow no more,
Nor drive true love from maiden's door.
Man cannot o'ertake a tieeting lie,
Change his wheat to a field ofrye,
Or call back years that have long gone by.
Man cannot a cruel word recall,
Fetter a thought, be it great small,
Or honey extract from drop of gall.
Man never can bribe old Father Time,
Gain the height of peak that he cannot climb
Or trust the hand that hath done crime.
Man never can backward turn the tide
Or count the stars that are scattered wide,
Or find in tool a trusty guide.
Man cannot reap fruit from worthless seed,
Rely for strength on a broken reed,
Or gain a heart he hath caused to bleed.
Man never can hope true peace to win,
Pleasure without and joy within,
Living a thoughtless life of sin.

A Lost Day.

How many tasks planned at dawn,
1 said, "When this fair day has gone
And I sit down at eventide
To count the work my hands have done
Between the rise and set of sun
shall be fully satisfied"
And then wove web of dreams,
And hours slipped by like sunny streams
Unnoted in their rapid flight.
And when reused myself at last
To act, found the day was passed,
And sunset fading into night.
Oh, foolish dreams, oh, wasted day!
This and this only, can say
"Notone good deed my hands have DONE"
How much I might have done, had
But used the hours as they passed by
But have squandered every one.
God gives his days for us to use
For some good purpose. five choose
To squander thom, how great our sin!
To shudder when 1 think he keeps
A record of them all, and weeps
To see the misspent ones therein.
Oh, ye who give to dreams Gods hours,
A serpent turks beneath the flowers,
Of idle moods and weak delay;
Rouse make to-morrov7's record fair
Be this the angels entry there,
sTo-day atones for yesterday"

LETTER EROM MASSACHU-
SETTS.

Friend Blake.-I have been a sub
scriber to your spicy paper while liv-
ing in Orleans County, and speaking
in general terms | like 1t. As [ am
a sturdy. unfinching, old line demo-
crat, and out-spoken, fearless free
thinker, and an enthusiastic admirer
of Herbert Spencer and Col. Inger-
sol, of course its politics and theolo-
gy are and must be "biled crow to
me. But 1 recognize the right of
freedom of thought and opinion to
all men on all subjects, and | know
full well that an editor must write in
a great measure to suit his patrons,
even if the general tone of his paper
conflicts to some extent with his own
better Judgment. However that may
be in your case, / must say in frank
ness that in offset to my political and
religious prejudices, find much in
the MONITOR to amuse, enlighten and
interest me-; more especially since l
came to my new home in Massachu-
sets; in fact I feel as if could not
do without the MONITOR: | am a
stranger in strange land, and when
1 get the paper and read its locals
and spicy paragraphs it seems as if
an old friend had called to see me
and tell me all the news. / sold out
and left my own beautiful home
among the green hills and fertile val
leys of the old Green Mountain state
to come here and take charge of the
agricultural department of an insti-
tuition in South Boston called ''The
Massachusetts School for the Feeble
Minded" I regard it as one of the
grandest humanitarian projects of
the age, for which Massachusetts is
so justly celebrated. 1t was start
ed in a small way some forty years
since by the well known philanthro-
pist, DR.. Howe, in private capacity
and has steadily grown to its present
size and usefulness and is rapidly in
creasing. 1t is not altogether self
sustaining, but is literally assisted
by state aid, and private charitable
bequests. They take unfortunate
feeble minded boys and girls and
teach them to work, read, write, etc.
They have workshops and foremen
where the boys learn various useful
trades, and the girls are trained in
all useful, and some ornamental
work. There is well regulated
gymnasium where the boys are in
structed in performing various feats
of agility and gyrations too numer-
Gus to mention. Many of these chill
dren when brought to the institution
did not know enough ''to get in out
of the rain," and now they bid fair
to become useful, ,.self-sustaining men
and women. am proud to say that
/ have been employed to teach these
unfortunate boys 'what L know
about farming" and if succeed in
improving the mental, intellectual
and moral status and condition of
those fellows by teaching five of them
in five years TO properly cultivate a
crop of potatoes shall feel as if
had done as great service to the
world of mankind and accomplished
as much for the moral upbuilding
and improvement of suffering human
ity as Talmadge or Cook. There is
a large farm and fine buildings with
all modern improvements, except
silo, which 1 am instructed by the
superintendent to build this summer,
with capacity of about one hum
dred tons. j. j. ii.
