prise to many of his acquaintance, who

great sufferer from cerebrO spinal men

The Wives of Public Men,

Philadelphia Times.
The death of Mrs. Pendleton removes from
public life the only woman who could at all rival
the wife of Senator Logan as a careful guardian
Of her husbands political interest Mrs Hen
drickss ambitious efforts were halted by the
hand that felled her husband while yet in the
prime of useful manhood, and the beautiful Mrs
Mcdonald was relegated to comparative privacy
by the political tides which swept her husband
from the Senate. For Mrs. Mcdonald there is
still some hope, her husbands leadership of the
Indiana Democracy being undisputed now But
for Mrs. Hendricks there can be no return to the
sphere which she found 80 congenial unless
through the medium of another marriage 1t is
no secret that Mrs. Pendleton felt her husbands
defeat more than the eminent reformer himself
When the couple left Washington it was with
resolution on Mrs. Pendetons part not to return
again until il was in such capacity as became
the ex-Senator's talents The changing condi-
tions of politics might have made that an easy
matter, but should it ever come to pass now she
who would have enjoyed it most will not share
in the triumph. Mrs. Whitney still remains as
the bright particular star of the purely social
armament, but in the broader sky, where Mrs.
Hendricks, Mrs. Logan and Mrs Pendeton shone,
Mrs. Logan now reigns with unrivaled brill
fancy.

Straits to Which Artists Are Reduced by the
Exigencies of Trade.
New York Correspondence Philadelphia Press.
Art and fashion are involved with each other
now as never before. Not only do the designers
of elaborate toilets reasonably claim to exercise
artistic taste, for much originality and beauty
are often put into the work, but genuine paint
Usage in the most preteutious New
York circles authorizes the wearing
of exceedingly fine gowns at dinners,
and the apparel at the best balls hardly shows
such unique garments are seen in dining
rooms on occasions of fashionable eating and
drinking. The aim is to wear something unlike
any ody ese's garb, and to effect this the silk
or satin of dress is often painted by hand in
water colors or oil. An artist acquaintance of
mine whose works canvas have frequently
been good enough to be admitted to the Academy
of Design, was bemoaning the fact that Ameri-
can buyers prefer foreign to native pictures r-
respective Of merits.
When man has to go to painting live
women instead of his own creations. he bitterly
growled, II think it is time for him to throw
down the brush and take up shovel"
He explained that he had taken several COM
missions to decorate womens dresses as a means
of subsistence. and that he was retained by
leading dress-maker for that sort of work But
be declared that he would never again do what
he had done in one instance, which was to use
his brush on fabric that at the time inclosed the
owner. The belle had insisted that the figures
painted on the waist of her dress, though they
looked well in themselves were not shaded SO as
to be effective when she had it on. Therefore,
she wished the artist to come to her house and
touch up his work while it was on her person.
That he regarded as humiliating He could
paint a gown in his studio. but professional
pride forbade him to apply his brush to the per-
son Of the patron.

Twilight by the Wabash.

Ripe color sheaves the red sun reaps
And richly cleaning as it goes.
In golden swirls the Wabash sweeps
While subtly soft in dimpling d eeps
The drowning skies are touched with rose
Slow sinks the west to tender tints;
The water pales like opal stones,
Save where some darker dappling hints
OF tspering trees, whose shadow prints
Tremble in vague elusive tones,
Through pallid light the moon is led.
Rare chords the minstrel river plays;
The evening with the day is wed
While censor stars swing overhead.
And spill the twilights perfumed haze.
w.
o stream, thy benediction lend
And bear it as thy waters flow
To banks where pulsing ripples end
In tangled turf, and willows bend
To kiss tho wave. as 1 do now.
SO gently, gently, may thy foam
Break by the blossoms of my home.
-Eyaleen Stein.

One summer, in California, gentleman who
had just removed from the Sandwich Islands told
me this incident: He said one of the Sandwich
Islands is devoted to lepers. People getting sick
of the leprosy on the other islands are sent to
that isle of lepers. They never come Off They
are in different stages of disease, but all who die
on that island die of leprosy On zone of the
healthy islands there was physician who always
wore his hand gloved and it was often discussed
why he always had glove on that hand under
all circumstances.
One day this physician came to the city au
thorities, and he withdrew his glove and he
said to the officers of the laws You see on
that hand spot of the leprosy, and that | am
doomed to die. / might hide this for little
while, and keep away from the isle of lepers,
but I am a physician. and l can 90 on
that island and administer to the suffer
ings of those who are further gone in the
disease, and should like to go now. 1t would
be selfish in me to stay amid these luxurious sur
roundings when might be of so much help to
the wretched. Send me to the isle of the lepers.'
They. seeing the spot of eprosy, of course took
the man into custody. He bade farewell to his
family and his friends. 1t was an agonizing
farewell. He could never see them again. He
was taken to the isle of the lepers, and there
wr0uoht the sick until nrOsfrated by hJS
own death, which at last came. Oh, that was
magnificent self-denial, magnificent sacrifice,
only surpassed by that Of Him who exiled Him
self from the hearth of heaven to this leprous
wounds. and weep our griefs. and die our deaths,
turning the isle of leprous world into great
blooming paradisacal garden. Whether employ
or or employe, let US catch that spirit.

The Popularity of Logan's Book.

New YORK Mall and Express.
Mr.. A. r. Hart said to-day that the demand
for the Generals book which has now beon out
a week, has far exceeded all expectations. and
that the first edition has been exhausted several
days. Work is being pushed night and day on
new edition in order to fill advance orders,
while not over twentieth part of the canvassing
has been done. An interesting fact about the
book is that large numbers of letters have been
received by Hart & Company. the drift Of which
is in praise of the Generals outspoken way Of
writing and his evident disinclination to varnish
facts.
1.-THE whole canvass is away ahead Of our ex-
pectations." added Mr.. Hart, ''and shows the
greatest interest throughout the country in
everything that Logan does. Why. small towns
which were put down for forty or fifty copies OF
the book are nearly all more than doubling their
ordersn

The Soldiers Dream.

l dreamed last night of the bloody fray,
Of the battles noise and din;
Of a field where dead and wounded lay,
While the gath'ring gloom of the closing day
Drew curtain round the blue and grey.
And tenderly shut them in.
I dreamed of havoc by shot and she'll,
And the flash of crnel steel;
And around me fast the brave ones fell,
Who rushed to the very jaws of he'll,
And like a sea in it's surge and swell,
Met the cannon's deadly peal.
Not only dream was it. but MORE
A memory lived again
An echo sad of the pillows roar
On the sea of death, from whose dread shore,
With spirit and body bruised and sore,
I rose the wings of pain.
Over the track of score of years
I can backward glance to-day,
While mostening comrades grave with tears,
And dreaming of all the doubts and fears
That life in its brightest aspect wears
For the pilgrim on lifes way.
And. looking back, have cause for joy
In this golden age of peace;
I'm glad to have been soldier boy.
Am glad that the hosts in sins employ
Could not our glorious land destroy,
But for slavery brought release.
Go scatter their graves with flowers to-day,
All over this land of ours,
And drop tear for the blue and gray,
And every year, on the last of May,
A worthy tribute of honor pay,
With garlands of fairest flowers.
