THE JUST JUDGE.
Palmam qui meruit tera'

PutnlGm ga meTait JeFdt.
BY INGoMAR.
The Goddess of Justice smiles when he draws
near,
And surrenders her scales without dread or fear;
A halo of glory encircles his brow,
And JUSTICE exclaims-I am satisfied now!
A just Judge is rare, and my heart oft doth grieve,
For to tell you the truth I really believe
That the people are mad, else they never would
send
To my Temple of Justice, nor countenance lend
To the miscreants vile, who're infinitely worse
Than some victims they sentence; for O., it's a
curse
To have drunkards and villains, whose names
know not,
Sit on nv Bench and I oft blush with shame
AT the mock'ry of Justice such vipers proclaim
AS the law of the land for if 1 had my due,
O, foully wrong'd victims, they'd change places
with you:
But this Judge, intelligence beams from his eyes,
And his soul is as pure as the light from blue
skies!
NV DEGREES be will temper with mercy mostkind,
And to worldly allurements he is ever blind:
NV white robes of ermine he ne'er will betoul
Like the Vampires, the Furies, the Gnomes and
the Ghouls,
Who mock at my blindness while 'decrees'
they do SELL
They are fit only for the meridian of hell!
His locks they are ven'rable-hoary with age
And in his long record there is not a dark page
To befoul or to tarnish, or bring blush OF shame,
And I bow when I hear his glorious name!
I bow with glad thanks for this one noble son,
And his name would embalm forever in song.
I know that when he takes his seat on my Bench
No reeking foul odor,-no vile, filthy stencil
Will eXhale from the ermine his shoulders upon
That he'll frown upon vice and THAT is wrong
That my scales he'll suspend like a feather
weight,
And no countenance give to the lordly or great,
But Justice mete out to the rich and the poor
His DEGREES will be justice simple and pure.
So I smile in his face, and greet him with JOY,
Whenever my Temple my fav'rite draws nigh
I greet him-All hail o, my glorious son!
Thou art s~potless and pure as the rays of bright
sun!
O long may you live, and with wisdom adorn
The tribune of Justice !-you're my Temples
charm!
O, would that all Judges were like unto thee!
No more from my Temple in shame would flee!
No more cloud my face with a mantle of woe
To hide shame's suffusion, which burning doth
glow
Which tells that I'm stihed my own Temple in
| And I mourn and weep for the g%rievous sin
That is done in my NAME, whilst I'm tied mana
and foot
By a miscreant vile, or a base, drunken sot!
But YOU, noble son !! my Temple adorn
Like the first flush of light from a glad Summer
morn!
Then hail to the just Judge! O long may he
live!
Green laurels he's won,-I the crown to him
give!
Entwined laurel and palm are as fadeless as time,
So round his pure brows Them lovingly Irvine!
Then, rejoice Carolin'ans, when his name l now
mention,
This, my glorious son, is-CHIEF JUSTICE S1Mp-
SON

A Man of Grief!

HIS RELIEF AND JOY!

TNHE Doctor says When Mr.. James Edwards,
of Senoia, Ga, began to take "GUlNN'S
PIONEER BLOOD REVIEWER" I saw him.
He was covered, body and eXtremities, with a
characteristic syphillitic eruption that seemed to
have baffied all treatment. I saw him a second
time in about ten days, when he was so changed
in appearance by having the scales removed and
the eruptions healed, that l barely knew him,
and in a remarkably short time he was relieved
of all appearance of the disease.

CONDIMENTS IN THE TEA.-It is related
that when Judge Wright, of Cincinnati,
and Mr.. Corwin were travelling together
during a recent campaign, stopped to stay
over night at the home of a prominent citi-
zen in the central part of the State. At
supper the hosts daughter waited on the
table, and'knowing the distinguished char
acter of their guests, was inclined to put on
some style; and before pouring tea inquired,
first of Judge Wright:-"Do you take con-
diments in your tea?" The old judge was
too polite to say anything but Eyes" and
let her fix his tea as she pleased.
When she came to Mr.. Corwin, she re-
peated the same question. The chance for
Joke was so good that he could not resist
the temptation to improve it, and he re-
plied:-"Pepper and salt il, you please, but
no mustard"

A MoHAMMEDAN JoKE.-It is the belief
among the Mohammedans thatif early pray
ers are said forty mornings in succession at
the mosque before any one else arrives, the
person so doing shall have good luck and
prosperity. There was Il poor mar in Con-
stantinople who was the picture of bad luck
and improvidence. Every morning early
he repaired to the great Mosque of st. So
phia and invariably found some one ahead
of him, thus breaking the charm. One
morning, as usual, he discovered the earlier
devotee, and, as he proved to be the same
one all the time, he thus spoke: "My friend,
l am poor and need good luck. For many
mornings 1 have come hither to pray, each
time earlierthan before. Give mes chance ;

Gathering himself up, he managed to climb

HE DID NOT KNOW HIM.-Mr. Potter
Palmer, the veteran hotel man, has such
an army of employees about the Palmer
House that he doesn't know half of them
even by sight. Recently he ran across a
man who was cleaning windows-at least
he was supposed to be doing so. In reality
he was trailing the semblance of a human
face in a thick coat of soap with which
he had covered the window pane. Mr..
Palmer abhors trifing and laziness. $50

torily commanded the man. The fellow
put on his coat and got his pay and was
just going out of the Monroe street entrance
when Mr.. Palmer spied him. He took a
fancy to his appearance at once.
"My man." he exclaimed, benevolently,
would you like a job?"
The discharged employee was too much
astonished to do else than murmur Eyes,

BAYARD TAYLoR's NORTHUMBERLAND
Taylor always insisted that animals recog-
nize and remember the speech of their
native land, and it is related of him that,
noticing q ~hippopotamus in Barnum's mu-
scum that looked detected, Taylor spoke to
it in English, but the beast did not move
its head. Then, going to another corner
of the cage, he said in Arabic: 81 know
you; come here to me-" The beast at once
turned its head and listened. Taylor re-
peated the same words, when the animal
to him and rubbed its head against
the bars and looked in the face ofthe speaker
with evident delight. 1t was probably
homesick, and a sound it had heard in its
natl We land was vastly comforting.

Before I left the United States some eo-
pie said to me that Persia was a very hot
and unhealthy place. l pointed with tri-
umph to a statement in Mr.: Beptapicia

mate was delightful, and stole upon your
senses gradually, like the zephyr, laden
with the fragrance OF myriads of flowers
or words to that effect. Alas, 1 have been
sadly disabused. There is a Persian pro-
verb as old as the hills which hath it that
"Iran hattie ktun dared" Il. Q. sPersia has
seven climates") and, as most proverbs, it's
true. Thus, while along the shores of the
Caspian, hundreds and hun.ieds of miles
in length, the climate Is moist, fever-laden,
o oppressive in summer, up in the mou
tains in the Mazanderan district in the
north 1t is quite raw.
In the central portion, up In the plateau
1000 feet above sen level, from Teheran
into Isphan and way beyond, the climate
on the whole Is mild and moderate, with
the exception Of the late hummer and
early fall, when ~dysentery, intermittent
fever, and cholera, prevail. In the south,
In Faristan, Arabistan, and Luristan, and
in a still higher degree along the Persian
gulf, Busheer and Mohammerah included,
the heat is extreme, aud 1t Is said that
there are places there which come right
after that other place hat must not be
mentioned to ears polite, in point of torrid
comfort. In Bender Abbas, for instance,
the inhabitants -amuse themselves diving
the long heated term by lying still, in the

When a troop of friends invade some
lonesome hacienda, then great indeed is
the rejoicing. Not only is the fatted calf
slaughtered for the occasion, but fire.
quently the finest bull the estate affords
is sacrificed upon the alter of hospitality,
in the way OF a private bull fight for the
delectation Of any who may care t ethus
diverted. The court yard in the center OF
the square of buildings Is transformed
into a temporary plaza de torros. or bull
pen. Professional matadors are sent for,
and word goes to all the adjacent ham
lets that a free show-such as is dearest to
the creole hearts, about to t%ranspire.
At the appointed hour a crowd is col
lected, whose surprising numbers-consid-
-ering the apparently empty country lying
all around-incline one to believe that the
NEUROLOGICAL sowing Of the dragons teeth,
from which an army sprang, has been re-
peated- With that graceful hospitality
which Is the direct heritage Of this gentle
race from their Moorish ancestors, all are
. welcome to. come in and make merry with
the lords of the land. A bull fight costs
no more than a fashionable ball, although
the best torro on the place Is slain and tine
paylof the professional fighter Is about the
same that skilled musicians would receive
for rendering dance music. Afterward
the slaughtered animal serves as the
.t~loavesand fishes" to feed the multitude,
INC nothing 30 stirs the blood and affords
that excitement for which their stagnnnt
lives are longing as the national Spanish
American sport.-Fannie B. Ward In Kan

and a bottle of the drug-only so cents.
