"ABsENCE CONQUERs LOVE
The Judge.

The Judge.
First, when ! went away.
She wept each long, long day
As time won't slowly by.
She took weekly cry.
My absence longer grew:
Then once a month would do.
And now Just once a year
For me she drops tear.
A year. that pearl may be
Dissolved by times decree.
Then Joy my heart receives
That she no longsr grisyes.

Who was Bella
on her breast dahlia nestled.
Deep maroon in pink and white;
In her dimples graces wrestled.
In her eyes dwelt heavens light.
And her lips, Who could discover
Two such treasures side by side:
Closed, they would distract lover
When she opened them she lied.
This was Bella.

COLOR MUSIC.

Suppose, by q wild stretch of imag-
inatiOn, some mechanism that will make
a rod turn round one of its ends, quite
slowly at first, but then faster and faster,
till 1t will revolve any number of times
in a second which is, of course, per-
fectly imaginable, though you could
not find such a rod or put together
such mechanism. Let the whirling 90
on In dark room, and suppose a man
there knowing nothing of the rod how
will he be affected by it? So long
as 1t turns but few times in second
he will not be affected at all unless he
is near enough to receive blow on
the skin. But rs soon as it begins to
spin from sixteen to twenty times a
second, q deep, growing note will break
III upon him through his ear and as
the rate then grows swifter, the tone
will go on becoming less and leas grave,
and soon more and more acute, till it
will reach a pitch of shrillness hardly
to be borne, when the speed has to be
counted by tens of thousands. At
length, about the stage of 40, 900 revo-
lutions a second more or less, the shrill-
ness will pass into stiffness silence will
again reign as at the first, nor any more
be broken. The rod might now plunge
on in mad fury fer a very long time
without making any difference to the
man but let it suddenly come to
whirl some million times a second.
and then through intervening space
faint rays of heat will begin to steal
toward him, setting up a feeling of
warmth in his skin, which will again
grow more and more intense, as now
through tens and hundreds and thous-
| ands of millions the rate of revolution
is supposed to rise. Why not billions
The heat at first will be only so much
the greater. But, 10! about the
stage of four hundred billions there is
more-a dim red light becomes visible
in the gloom and now, while the rat g
still mounts up, tAe heat in its turn dies
away, till it vanishes as the sound van
ished; but the red light will have
passed for the eye into a yellow, a green,
a blue, and, last Of all, a violet. And to
the violet, the revolutions being about
100000, 100000 a second, there will
succeed darkness-night, as in the
beginning. This darkness, too, like
the stiffness, will never more be broken.
Let the rod whirl on as it may, its
dOings cannot come within the ken of
that mans senses.

IEE1Ts JONES. MISSIONARY.

Department Commander John Smith,
of the Salvation Army, appointed me
and Jane, that's my wife, missionaries
to Dakota, we payin' our own expenses
out Our salaries, he said, would be
sent from Headquarters in Hingland,
DIV.
Well, we got there, and a horrid wild
country it was, with cowboys, miners,
Indians and road agents, all mixed in so
you'd hardly know one from another,
What money we had left to carry us up
Jane carried inside her corset among the
whalebones and strings, and it was lucky
she did, for the very day after we got to
the first camp was told to:
"Halt! Hold up hands? We're goin'
through you p
didn't dare do nothin' but stop, and
Jane she stood and squealed and begged
'em to be "marciful to me a sinner, for
I was her only husband with no pros
poets of not any more !"
The boss or head man was a yaller
skivered Indian chief with his face full
of war paint and his belt full of knives
and revolvers, and lie smelt of whisky
like an old still.
And two white men and half dozen
Indians grabbed me, and the old chief
he cackled and told 'em to clean me out
an shuck me, whatever that last meant
I didn't know, but 1 thought they'd tear
me all to pieces.
And Jane she screamed out
"Jeems. Jeems, where's the kertridge
O. dynemite Mr.. OFossl gave you.
Use it, use it, or you're lost to time and
etalnityr r
My hand went down into the depths
of an inside pocket and them creeturs
fell back, all but the chief, and he just
howled:
"Stan to himl Stan to him p
By this time had that kertridge in
hand and let him have it as hard as 1
could heave baseball style, right in the
stomach. The next second he departed
for unknown parts, about two-thirds fo
him goin' down in a direct course for
China, the other third goin' up toward
the clOudless hevings.
One instant his benighted followers
looked at the hole in the ground and
the next day they fled, leaving Jane and
me in solitary blessedness, rejoicing to
think that the power of dynamite would
convert the heather when salvation
songs were of no account whatsomever.
We have BE- ii in Dakota long enough
to have chills and fever, measles and the
mumps, but we haven't received any sal.
