Oregon and Washington.

No section of the country is to-day attracting as much attention as Mon- tana, Oregon and Washington; Mon- tana, because it now ranks first in the production of precious metals; Ore gon, because of its rich valleys, and Washington Territory by reason of it's mild climate, timber, coal, minerals and wonderful productions of fruits and cereals. The rapid growth of Spokane Falls, with a water power exceeding even that of Minneapolis ]; Tacoma, on Puget Sound, the termi- nus of the Northern Pacific railroad, with 2,00O inhabitants; Seattle, thirty miles distant, an energetic and thriv- ing city, mark this section of the Pa- cific Northwest as one that offers pe- culiar inducements to those seeking new homes.

"HFE GRACE OF oAUZE." :"
BY STANLEY WATERLOO.

Rella's
 Dark face IS sweet
 And her two fitting feet Are more attractive far than Cinderella's- What imagery too rich in commendation Of the seductive, rhythmic undulation Of the 1.-the figure that those feet sustain, With fall as soft as fall of summer raln9 How she floats above the footlights, something beautiful in gauge, With lightness contradicting all of gravita- tion's laws, And a smile the while she hovers-surely something of the grace To those two feet appertaining has crept up ward to her face In perspective over baldheads sec her hutter to the fore, A Titania laughing over beaming Bottoms by the score, Tangling up their old affections in an allen circling net, Weaving meshes new about them with each instant's pirouet. But front rows not alone the fairy captures, Those who have hair exhibit equal raptures; She's charmed the bald and all the restl What simile shall suit her best, What neat comparison enhance, Praise due the Spirit of the Dance,
 Who from the stage's sIde, Floats like lilly on a coming tide! Each touch of foot is but light caress; She steps on velvet like the leopardess; She has such art we may not know her arts' And drift on tilted toes into our heartsl

"Ah, thought SO. And I may say that you'll find mighty fine young lady when you get her. Pve known her folks"
 On the following day one really must resume his travel. Not only is there business ahead, but if one re- mains in town he will be married out of hand by the good people, regard less of the engagement the minister's daughter has already entered upon, but with which it is not deemed wise to acquaint the villagers. The belle of the town is gracious enough to drive out to the train next morning for an airing, and it prevents the stranger from passing lonesome hour while awaiting the delayed train. But it does make him the observed of half the village, who have somehow been attracted out to the station.
 Why it was that the stranger never returned and that another stranger appeared suddenly at the parsonage one day and carried off its especial prize to great city is, of course, plain enough to the villagers, but the in- formation never came from either "Miss Kate" or from the "beau" W whom Pomp drove into town. The explain ation was made in part by the inn- keepers boy himself and in part by i the village postmistress.
 There are some officeholders to whom change of presidents and cab- inets sinks into insignificance when compared with the strange handwrit- ing on letter. Their terms of office are so secured by their small compen- satiof that they find time to devote themselves to weaving romances out of the initials signed to postal card.
 The postmaster of New York might well learn points from the village postmistress.
 "l could have told you so all the time," said that worthy functuary, as the village watched young Dash drive out with the golden haired maiden. "I knew something was up when sec letter or two coming to Miss Kate in strange handwrite. There wasn't nothing to say who they might be from, but one day see letter in Miss Kate's handwrite go through my office directed to this same gentleman and then he sent her newspapers and things"-and the oracle in all matters, "mental and communicate" regarding the tender passion in this riverside hamlet, magnified into ten der correspondence the exchange of two or three formal letters which had passed between the ex-school girl and her friend, chiefly about some new music or novels he had some time promised to find for her. The post mistress had been expecting the stran- ger all the time, and she was quite familiar with his name. But when the parsons daughter married another fellow the postmistress confessed to no fault of penetration. There had been only another vicissitude of poli- tics and she fell to wondering what the next batch of postal cards would reveal in the nature of gossip.
 The village editor had whole week in which to construct 6 fitting para graph, and here is what the next Olive Branch had to say:
 "The amiable and accomplished Col onel G. Archie Dash, from the city, paid nasty visit to one of our bellies last week. He appears to be the most intelligent young man we have ever had the pleasure to meet. It is rum ored that there is to be wedding be- fore the snows again cover Cemetery Hill. Come again, Colonel Archie"
