GOODNIGHT AND GOOD.MORNING.
Goodnight, for the shadows are falling at

And the faint tinge Of day in the far =, :

It buddod and bloomed and it blossomed in

Good-night-for the stars that above US are
set
Have ranged their bright squadrons along
the dark sky,
And the red clover tops with the dew-drops
are wet,
While the night wind goes murmuring,
whispering by,
Goodnight
Good night, for the glow-worms their Ian
terms have lit,
While afar the lone whip poor-will plain
lively calls,
And as bats thro' the darkness slow zig-zag-

From the gloom that divides us your dear
answer falls,
Goodnight
Good-night-the door closes, you shut out
the stars
bandclasp-a liss-for the best friends
must part,
'Tis the coming that makes and the going
that mars
And last echo lingering says to my heart,
Goodnight goodnight
We parted at dusk, yet we're meeting at
dawn,
When the day in his might puts the dark
ness to scorning,
For the sunlight pours down and the shad.

They fled far and fast yet they whispered,

HGood-morning.
The film on the clover, the dew on the wheat
That shone in the moonlight, the night

The first breath Of day as it murmured
good-morning,

An Ancient Umbrella.

An umbrella that was brought to this
country from Holland in 1850 has been
on exhibition in Albany, N. y. Ii bears
the name of an italian maker 1t has
been asserted that umbrellas are a later
invention than 1880 and that an English
man first appeared in the streets of Lon
don in the last century with one 10 pro-
tect him from the rain. The fact is,
however, that umbrellas were in use by
the Egyptians 1000 years ago. The um-
blelas seen sometimes attached TO a
yoh cle in the streets are seen pictured
upon the wall paintings Of ancient
Egypt.

Taste in Furnishing.

While it is not esSe B4ial that the carpet
should match the furniture and curtains,
there should be no violent contrasts, nor
should it be so brilliant as to produce an
unfavorable effect on the furniture. If the
furniture is all of one color, say crimson,
q carpet of white and crimson, or wood
color and crimson, will look well. Sim
pie colors and patterns in carpet are
preferable to the brilliant and showy.
Very dark carpets are undesirable from
the fact that every speck of thread that
falls upon them shows. Tapestry Brus-
sells carpets, now in vogue, are not al
ways desirable, as the coors are apt to
wear off. A real Brussels is dyed in the
wool, while the tapestry Brussels has the
pattern stained in, after weaving, and al
though whe1 it looks we'll it does
not wear. lie semi-neutrals, maroon
is best adau for carpet. Either much
white or m black is an error. Some
'orsons objt,sr to furnishing in one color
as not affording sufficient variety. Yet
a parlor was recently furnished in Grim
son of several shades, the effect being
pleasing. The carpet was deep Grim
son, while the satin brocade of the furni-
ture was ~ a lighter shade, the blending
being perfect. Pc curta ms were like
the damask ohe chais $, relieved by

of white in such cases is very desirable.

coRNED BEEF AND CABBAGE

Spring chicken, roast partridge,

Takes always theprize.
The beef, streak o fat,

Cut crosswise the grain
And as tender as bread,
With cabbage cooked with it
And mealy potato
Boiled right in its jacket,
Served on the same plate, o,

An appetite knows
Can beat any dinner

And when he has emptied
His plate heaping high
He never has room for
A pudding or pie.

Your praises we sing.
For a solid, square meal
You are truly the king.
You make us unbuttou
Our vests every time
And fill us with huge
Satisfaction sublime.
We pity the people
Who dwell in-the flats
- Who, thinking about you,
Get hungry as rats,
And can't, for thy fragrance,
Which heaven doth seek,
Enjoy you but only
One day in the week.

Upon two recent occasions, the Post
of this city has charged that Hon. II.
A. Hicklin was q high tariff man and
that there was practically no difference
between his views and those of the
most pronounced republican. Feeling
assured that the charge was unjust, a
representative of the Intelligencer last
Saturday took occasion to interview
Mr.. Hicklin upon the subject, when he
distinctly and emphatically denied the
charges of the Post and said that he
stood with President Cleveland i'm his
tariff message, and that his only objec-
ton to the Mills bill was that it did not
60 far enough and put wooden manu-
features as well as wool upon the free
list.

A BIG STRAW.

At the last meeting of the Indepen-
dence, Kansas, Cleveland and Thurman
club people were surprised at the
Hon. S. II. Pettibonc, a very prOmi,
nent attorney and q life long aud
active republican declaring his intention
to leave the republican party and
become a member of the Cleveland
and Thurman club. He served in the
union army and lost both legs just
below the knees. The republicans
are very sore, as they were relying
upon him for a considerable amount
OF wire pulling and stump speaking
during this campaign.

THE DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET.

The state democratic convention has
come and gone, and its work is before
the people of Missouri for ratification
or rejection. That it WILDE triumphantly
elected admits of no debate, and is
questioned by no one. Omitting the
secretary of state, as it is his news
paper that submits these comments,
the ticket may be said to amount to an
inspiration. 1t has only to be scanned to
SEQ that 1t Is representative of all p0r-
tons of the state, and ofall the interests
Of our grand and glorious common
wealth.
In the candidate for governor a
gentleman is named who stands for the
great commercial interests of our state.
Young, yet his name is connected with
big events. Delegate at large to the
national convention which in another
moment of inspiration selected Cleve-
land as our standard bearer; mayor of
the city of st. Louis, always true to
every trust; uninfluenced by wealth or
power doing his duty to the body of
the people in a manly, plain and I'M
ostentatious way; defending always
the good name of Missouri; proud of
his city, proud of his state, and proud
of his country cultured, polite broad in
all his views, full of energy and life,
David Il. Francis is o typical candidate
of the re-awakened democracy, which
has put behind it dead issues and the
"reminiscences of past conflicts, to do
battle upon never-dying principles tor
the men and women of to-day.
In Stephen ii. Claycomb the people
are offered a man experienced as a
legislator, true to their interests,
honest, fearless, and conscientious. In
the revising session of the legislature
he may be depended OIL to form COM
mittees which will protect the interests
of the people, while doing injustice
to no one.
.Messrs. McCulloch, Seibert and
holland have already proven their
trustworthiness in state offices and we
need not dwell upon their names.
Each is a tower of strength to the
ticket.
In John M. Wood for a~ttorncy-gen-
eral we have a man who, though young
in years, will come TO his duty well
equipped. A sound, well-read lawyer,
all eloquent advocate, all experienced
legislator, once speaker of the house of
representatives, Mr.. Wood will do
honor TO the office.
Tho nomination of Timothy j.
Hennessey for railroad commissioner is
a recognition for the place of an honor
able representative of practical rail-
road men, taken from the ranks of q
guild which in its Independence ac-
knowledges no master but reason and
no king but right. He comes indOrsed.by
all who know him as the peer of any
maj upon the ticket in integrity, in
telligence and democracy.
The most aacred duty of the demo-
cracy was to give to the state an abb Q,
a pure and all i~ncorruptible judiciary.
How well this has been performed it is
only necessary to mention the names of
the nominees. With a Barclay for the
supreme bench, and Ellison. Gill,
Smith and Biggs for the appellate courts
the democratic party of Missouri may
claim that it has done its entire work
even more than well, and il n con-
fdently appeal to the people for sup
port at the polls.

Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts
did not always entertain the views that

he said in September, 1884: "Grave
public questions confront us. Therelis

but By freeing entirely those great
necessaries of life which enter into the

these taxes should not be abolished in
preference to reducing Or abolishing

case different in 1888?
