years is only 40 per year. The average

only Al per year for II months,
and the record includes all
days on which one hundredth

LIFE IN THE COUNTRY.

It is never real morning except in the
country. In the city in the early part of
the day there is mixed color that climbs
down over the roofs opposite and through
the smoke of the chimney, that makes
people think it is time to get up and comb
their hair. But there is real morning in
the country.
Morning descending "from God out
of heaven like bride adorned for her
husband" A few moments before 1
looked out, and the army of night shad-
ows we're striking their tents. A red
light on the horizon that does not make
me think, as it did Alexander Smith, OF
"The Barren Beech OF He'll" but more
like fire kindled on the shore by him
whom the disciples saw at dsybreak stir
ring the blaze on the beach at Genesa-
reth. just now the dew woke up in the
hammock of the tree branches, and the
light kissed it. Yonder, leaning against
the sky, two great uprights of flame,
crossed many rundles of frel Some ia
those FURNISHED gates flaming chariot
rolls. Some Elijah must be ascending.
Morning / wish had q rousing bell
to wake the whole world up to see If,
Every Leaf a psalm. Every flower CEN
ser. Every bird chorister. Every sight
beauty. Every sound music. Trees trans
figured. The skies in conhagration.
The air as if sweeping down from
hanging gardens of heaven. The foam
of celestial seas splsshed on the white top
Of the spiT@a. The honeysuckle on one
side Of the porch challenges the sweet
brier on the other. The odors of hello
trope overflow the urus and food the
garden. Syringas with bridal blossoms
in their hair, and roses bleeding with
very carnage of color.
Oh, the glories Of day-dewn in the
country My eyes moisten. Unlike the
flaming sword that drove out the first
pair from Eden, these fiery splendors
seem like swords unsheathed by angel
hands to drive us in.
We all need the refreshing influences
Of more out door life. Almost every ma
ture, however sprightly, sometimes will
drop into minor key, or subdued mood
that in common parlanee is recognized as
.'the blues"
There may be no adverse causes at
work, but somehow the bells of the soul
stop ringing, and you feel like sitting
quiet, and you strike off so per cent from
all your worldly and spiritual prospects.
The immediate csuee may be northeast

spleen, or picked oysters of II O'Clock

In such depressed state no one can af-
ford to sit for an hour. First OF all let
him get up and go out of doors. Fresh
air and the faces of cheerful men and
pleasant women and frolicsome children
will, in fifteen minutes. kill moping. The
first moment your friend strikes the key

HUNTING WITH FALCONS IN

hawks are hooded and jessed exactly as
in the old knightly days. We make up
party OF eight or ten cavaliers, while
the rear is brought up by two or three
servants armed with guns for defence as
well as offence against the eagles who
sometimes pounce on the falcons. Sud-
denly rises the cry "Wahp from one OF

IDEAL HOUSEKEEPING.

In the house of the ideal housekeeper
verything is in order all the time. No
dust is visible anywhere, no finger marks
are to be seen, the windows are always
clear as crystal, nothing is ont of place,
savory meals are served at stated hours,
and all the table appointments are SIM
ply perfect; washing, ironing, scrubbing,
and mending are regularly and promptly
done. The ideal housekeeper, in addi-
ton to keeping her house in immaculate
order from Sunday to Sunday and from
May to May, in addition to spring clean
ing and spring sewing, to fall cleaning and
fall sewing, to putting up fruit, tending
plants and rearing children, finds time
for reading, painting, music, the study Of
the languages, and for society, without
neglecting the nurture of her own family.
This is beautiful picture, is it not?
and many woman in trying to realize
it Ill her own case has laid herself in a
premature grave, or made life burden,
release from which was gladly welcomed.
"The life is more than meat and the body
than raiment." The householder is more
than the house, and she owes it to herself
and to her household so to adjust her
work that care of herself and her house
hold may be appropriately divided and
applied. 1t is possible to pay too much
for even gold, and it is possible to pay
too high a price for immaculate house
keeping. The more we simplify our
mode of living the easier does it become
to live. There are those who prefer cob
webs in their houses to cobwebs in their
minds, who prefer to polish their facuI-
ties rather than their silver, who choose
embroidery for their intellects rather
than for their garments, who enjoy ele-
giant style in diction rather than in equi-
page. Those who have made their choice
deliberately must not allow themselves
to regret the absence of what they have

AN ANEcDorE OF WEBSTER.

One of the very best anecdotes of Dan
iel Webster, as illustrative of that exalted
and exslting character which his mind
prominently possessed, was told by the
late ST. George Tucker Campbell of Phil
adelphie, himself lawyer of good and
deserved distinction.
Mr.. Tucker said that having been re-
tanned in somewhat famous case at the
time with Mr.. Webster, who was detained
by his senatorial duties at Washington,
the conduct of the case through all the
prelimiD aries developed upon him, it be-
ing agreed that Mr.. Webster should de-
liver the closing argument. "But," said
Mr.. Tucker, "dsy after day went by with
out bringing the great expounder, until
the very last day before that on which the
closing argument was to be delivered, and
Twas in despair. was sitting in my room
at the hotel, debating with myself what to
do, when Mr.. Webster was announced.
After the little civilities had passed, he
asked me to tell him about the case"
"Why, Mr.. Webster" said I, sis it pos
sible you know nothing of the case?'
"Nothing whatever" said he, TELL
me about it."
was utterly dumbfounded, and point
ing to pile of testimony foot deep on
the table, said, SHOW am to convey all
that to you in the little time that is left
us?'
He said" Oh, never mind details.
Give me the case generally and the sal
lent points"
He sat down at the table opposite me,
and gave him rapid synopsis of the
case, which took two hours and more.
One point especially called to his atten-
ton. The opposing counsel was bent on
securing continuance Of the case, while
our interests demanded an immediate de-
cisiun. AS reas on against granting the
continuance, I cited the fact that the
other side had protrscted the cross. exam
inatiop expressly, occupying six days in
the case of one witness.
Mr.. Webster babe me good night after
1 had concluded, and went to bed. The
next morning he came into court as Sc
rene and majestic as Jove himself, while
was nervous and apprehensive to the
last degree. He began his address to the
court with that slow, ponderous gravity
that was so characteristic of him 10 the
outset of his fore nsic efforts, then gradu-
ally warmed and quickened. I listened
spellbound, for in essence it was nothing
but what I had pumped into him in the
two hours and half talk of the day be-
fore. But how transmitted and trans
formed. To give you an idea of the
transformation, I will take the point to
which L have alluded. He rendered it
thus:
"They ask for a continuance Why,
may it please the court, they have taken
at this hearing as much time in the cross
examination as it took the Almighty to
create the universe"
That represents the difference between
his speech and my talk; my simple six
days grew to the colossal figure have
described under the magic touch of his
genius, and this instance was Characters
tic of the whole.
