Only Il Dream.


The doctor had gone away at mid
night, saying he would look in again
early in the morning. and the tired
watchers had sought few moments of
rest while the sick man slept, but they
were in reach of the faintest call.
The light burned low and out of the
gloom strange shadows, evolved them
selves into almost human shape and
lowered about the bed whereon the
dying man lay.
Suddenly the white head lying on
the pillow moved, the sunken face grew
less pinched and worn in the titful
light, and the eyes of the old man
opened wide with a troubled, wistful
expression.
"Millicent," he called feebly, "Milli-
cent, have had bad dream"
The shadow of an old woman with
white locks and q form bowed by
age, came in swiftly at the open door;
she sat down beside him and held in
hers the helpless hands. There was
sob in the voice that said tremblingly:
1T was only dream, Reuben"
"But such dreadful dream that
my hair was white and l was old-an
old man-and that we had graves.
Millicent, what did it mean?"
Sob-sob-sob.
She bent over him tenderly and
stroked the veined and wrinkled hands
with loving touch. But she could not
speak; strong hands they had once
been, and tireless to do her bidding.
And in that dream you were old,
too, my bonny Millicent. Your hair
was snow-white instead of golden, and
your young, soft hands-dear hands
were hard and withered. And the chill
dren, dear, the little ones, were gone.
Are the children safe. Milicent?"
AYE, Reuben" sobbed tlfe shadow,
"the children are-safe."
THANK God, then, it was only a
dream. and your hair is not white and
1 am not old. 1t was only a dream,
after all.
"Only a dream, Reuben"
With his hand in hers he slept again,
and glad smiles crept over his wan
face, and look of his youth trembled
on his closed eyelids. Tender words
escaped from his pale lips as his soul
drifted among the argosles of the I'M
known seas.
"Hark!' he cried, with the fervor of
immortal youth, "They are singing in
the church. L hear my Millicent's
voice."
He broke forth in strain of devo-
tional music that rose and fell in waves
of rapture. The watchers stole in and
looked at him and at each other in
troubled surprise. He did not see
them. His eyes were fixed beyond
beyond-as he sang:
NO chilling winds nor poisonous breath
Can reach that healthful shore;
Sickness and sorrow, pain and DEATH
Are felt and feared no more"
"Millicent-my wife, till death do us
part-we are not old. 1t was only q
dream"
AS the daylight shone into the room
it touched the pillow with the gold of
eternal youth. The old man had
ceased to dream. Detroit Free Press.

They decided on Tuesday morning that
The fits continued throughout Tuesday, and

Amateur Photography.

There is, therefore, no reason what
ever why any young lady may not in a
few weeks produce really excellent
and artistic photographs. A camera is
simply small wooden box. having q
bellows at one side, and so arranged
that the box can be extended at will.
In the front of the box is lens, and
at the back sheet of ground glass. On
placing the box in the window with the
lens toward the light a vague image or
picture will appear upon the ground
glass. BY moving the bellows forward
or backward a point will be found
where the shadowy image on the glass
will appear sharp. clear, and distinct.
Whatever is to be seen out of the win
dow will be found inverted on the glass.
Every movement of the camera, how
ever slight, will affect the picture on
the glass. The lens may now be
covered over to exclude the light, and
the ground glass removed from the
back of the box. We have near a
small wooden box containing a sensitive
camera, and little slide in the box is
drawn out. Now take the cap off the
lens for a few seconds. Return the
slide to the box and take the box from
the camera. This is the whole of the
work, and any bright child ten years
old can be taught to do it correctly in
fifteen minutes. Any lady can surely
do this, and if she does no more she is
practically photographer.
The purchase of prepared plates,
putting them in the holders, setting up
the camera, etc, are merely matters of
detail that no one would be willing to
admit they could not do. While this
work is extremely easy, it gives field
for the display of the highest artistic
skill. The selection of the view, the
arrangement of the lights and shadows,
the pose of the subject, and countless
other artistic details, might well fill a
lifetime devoted to the study of the art
The point is just here; the sensitive
plate copies whatever stands before the
camera. 1t is for you to deci what
it shall copy, and upon this depends
your success or failure. -DemOresfs

Dress Reform.

DIR. Hamilton says in the North
american ReUieiC: 1 can quite con-
ceive that man thoroughly imbued
with the prejudices received from a
biased education, indisposed to-accept
new ideas, and deeply endowed with a
love for the beautiful, might be reluc-
tant to pay his addresses with view to
matrimony to q woman wearing trous-
ers. Still, under the influence of ia
miliarity, with the idea of change in
the neither garments of her sex, and es-
pecially should they be generally
adopted by pretty women, it might rea-
sonabiy be expected that change of
opinion and emotion would ensue, and
that perhaps in time he might be brought
to regard trousers as filling more
completely his idea of the beautiful
than do skirts of the present day.
There is another point that requires
consideration, and that is the practice
of wearing the gown cut low in the
neck, and without covering for the
arms. 1t is doubtful if this leads to
any i'll consequences. 1t has been con-
tinued for many generations without
apparent injury. 1t m ght be sup
posed at first thought that bronchitis,
pleurisy, pneumonia, and many kinds of
rheumatism and neuralgia would be
the result of the custom, but such is
really not the case, all of these affec-
tions being much more frequently met
with in men who cover the chest and
arms with several thicknesses of wooden
material in addition to shirt of
linen or cotton. 1t has been
strenuously urged by many So
called sanitary reformers that women
should support their skirts by straps
passing over the shoulders, and some
few have been induced to adopt the
method. A woman's hips are proper
tionately wider than those of a man,
and there is no better way of keeping
up the many petticoats that it is some
times necessary to wear than by fasten-
ing them with strings or bands around
the waist. Shoulder-straps hinder the
movement of the chest and tend to
make those who wear them round
shouldered. Besides, they could not
well be worn with low-neck dress.
Even if trousers should come into gen.
eral use for women, it would be better
that they should be kept up by the sup
port of the hips than by suspenders
passing over the shoulders.

THOMAS M. WALTER, architect of the
United States Capitol extension and of
Girard College, lives in Philadelphia,
and is described as the most methodic-
al of men. He is now engaged on the
new City Hall in that city. Although
verging closely on to eighty years of
age, he is yet able to produce drawings
the details of which are as carefully
prepared as though he were half as old
as he is. Punctually every morning,
ct 9 o'clock, his tall figure can be seen
entering the City Hall, and just as
punctually at A 80 in the afternoon he
leaves. A watch can almost be regu-
lated by his movements. His penman-
ship, too, is indicative of his character

utmost care, and each word is separat-
ed by precisely the same sized blank
space All his expenditures, even for
postage stamps, are carefully noted

State Rights.

The doctrine of State supremacy or
State sovereignty made its appear
ance very early in this republic. Iti
adherents were generally the oppo-
nents of the National Constitution, and
they opposed laws made by the General
Government, and sometimes went even
further and dehed them. Negotiations
were set on foot by the General Govern
ment in the spring OF 1893 with the
Cherokee and Creek nations. In spite
of the remonstrances of the Secretary
of War, Gov. Telfair, of Georgia, per-
sisted In leading body of militia
against warriors in an unoffendIng
Greek town, killing several of them and
capturing women and children. Tel
fair declared that he would recognize
no treaty made by the United States
