The Image Vendor.

Some years ago when | first saw him
he had number of small plaster busts
of a smiling child's face. The work
manship was much better than the or
dinarv character of such articles. and
the face was repeated with sufficient
faithfulness on half a dozen busts to
show that they were all copies of some
model.
Are these likenesses of any child, or
mere fancy heads?' was asked of the
image vendor.
'.Eet ees my little girl Tita," said
he, and he laughed and showed set
OF wonderfully white and perfect teeth.
Does it look like her?n
"Oh. yees," he exclaimed, with an
earnest protest in his tone against the
imputation that his art was faulty.
A few days ago | saw the same man
with basketful of small casts on his
arm. Stopping him from idle curiosi-
ty, one of the heads was taken from the
basket and examined. 1t was Tita
again, just as it had been years ago
the same smiling, happy child-face.
You still copy your daughter face
as it used to be?" said the writer.
The man looked surprised, and then
his face clouded.
You told me once long ago that
this was your little girl Tita, whose
face you modelled. Has she not chang
ed, and does she not look older?"
He took off his tattered hat. and his
voice trembled as he answered:
..Tita ees dead, bat see re face in
re clouds, signor. She ees dead, and

Kissing Shadows.

was coming up from Cedartown on
the East and West one afternoon not
long since, writes correspondent. In
the rear of the coach | saw a young
couple who seemed to be very deeply
Interested in each other. The young
lady was well dressed and had nice
manners. Her eyes were bright, her
cheeks rosy, and her lips vermillion.
The young couple appeared to be much
pleased with each other, and in spite
OF their surroundings, were indulging
in soft speeches and melting glances.
Alter while the young man suggest
ed that they 90 out on the rear end OF
the coach and enjoy the beautiful
scenery. The afternoon was bright
and the sun was shining across from
the west in genial way, casting long
shadows toward the east. The train
sped along through fields, over bridges,
ana around curves, and in my admira-
ton OF the fine farms to be seen from
my window | had almost forgotten the
young couple on the coach. The train
was gliding through an open field,
when my eyes fell on the young couple
reflected against the embankment on
ting. | could distinctly see the out
lines of their figures and the profles of
their faces-even the motion of the
young mans lips and the shadow of
the young lady's eyelashes could be
seen. 1t was amusing to look at, and
l called the attention of nv neighbor
on the next seat to il. Soon almost
every one in the car were watching the
shadows. The young man seemed to
be very earnest and the young lady
very attentive. Gently and as if by ac-
cident the shadow of the young mans
arm glided around the shadow of the
young lady's waist and the shadows of
the young mans lips were seen to
quicker" and dive at the space be-
tween the shadow of the young ladv's
chin and nose. The passengers in the
train became deeply Interested, and as
the shadows would meet time after
time litter would run up and down
the line inside the car. '.Dippin' su-
gar said one old fellow down in the
corner. 1t seemed that | could almost
see the sparks of electricity fly out of
the shadows on the bank as the lips
came together.
About that time the whistle blew for
town and the young couple came in
looking harmless and innocent-like
and the young lady remarked, Wasn't
that scenery just too lovely?" Sweet
would have been better word" said
the old fellow in the corner in quiet
undertone, and everybody laughed like
he had SAID something funny

C0iOring Il Meerschaum.

The most common complaint is that
their meerschaums will not turn from
their natural yellowish-whit color to a
rich brown, even after the smokers
have smoked themselves into the color
of a dried mummy in the effort. After
the artist has finished cutting the de-
sign and has shaped the bowl, the fin
ished bowl is boiled in wax. Why in
waXP Because the wax penetrates the
pores for short distance beneath the
surface and serves to keep the coloring
matter in the pipe, The coloring mat
ter is the oil of tobacco not nicotine.
as many enormously suppose, and it
sinks into the meerSchaum, which is
simply very porous clay, and is
stopped by the wax before it is driven
out at the outer surface by the heat
inside. II it We're not fop the wax the
coloring matter would pass out and oct
rubbed off and the pipe would never be
colored. A glazing of glass would do
as well as wax, but wax is the cheap
est material that has been found for the
purpose, Now when over-anxious
smokers try to hurry the process of
coloring the pipe, by smoking pipeful
after pipeful of tobacco, the wax is
driven out, leaving the pipe raw and
dry. The nearer to the top of the
bowl the wax is kept the finer it will
look when colored. The smoker should
take long, slow pulls at the pipe, and
after one pipeful is exhausted the pipe
should be laid down TO cool off before
it is filled again. Cincinnati CONNER

VOLUME XXVI.-NO. 80.
I'm Hurried, Child.

'oh. mother, look. I've found butter
Hanging upon a leaf. Do tell me why
There was no butter. Oh, do see its wings.
] never, never saw such pretty things
All streaked and striped with blue and brown
and gold,
Where is its house when all the days are
coid?''
''Yes, yes" she said, in absent accents mild,
I'm hurried, child''
Last night my dolly quite forgot her pray
And when she thought you had gone down
stairs
Then dolly was afraid; an so said:
just don't you mind, but say em in the bed,
Because think God is just as near
When dolls are 'fraid do you spose he can
hear?'
The mother spoke from out the rufHes piled:
I'm hurried, child!'
"Oh, come and see the flowers in the sky
The sun has left; and won't you, by and by,
Dear mother, take me in your arms and tell
Me all about the pussy in the well?
Then tell me of the babies in the wood?
And then, perhaps, about Red Riding Hood?
'Too much to do! Hush, hush, you drive me
wild,
I'm hurried, child!'
The little one grew very quiet now,
And grieved and puzzled was the childish
brow;
And then it queried: Mother, do you know
guess the hours are iittle-er than i,
So will take my pennies and will buy
A big clockl Oh. big as Il can be,
For you and n1e!'
The mother now has leisure infinite;
She sits with folded hands, and face as white
AS winter. In her heart Is winters chill.
She sits at leisure, questioning G eds will.
MY child has ceased to breathe, and all is
night!
Is heaven so dark that thou dost grudge my
light?
o life! 0 Cod must discover why
The time drags BY
o mothers sweet, if cares must ever fall
Pray do not make them stones to build
wall
Between thee and thine own; and miss thy
right
To blessedness, so swift to take its fight!
While answering baby questionings you are
But entertaining angels unaware;
The richest gifts are gathered by the way
For darkest day.
