And all this doleful crying?" -
The maiden sadly shook her head, =
And answered softly signing:
"All yesterday wept," said she.
And then this morning could see
IT was quite without reason;
So now mourn the stupid way
In which 1 spent that lovely day
The fairest Of the season.
o dear-O dear-O dear-O dear
The fairest Of the season."
So there she sat, the silly lass,
And nothing could content her;
The roses and the summer grass
No grain OF comfort lent her;
Nor any word that could say
Would ease her doleful crying.

She answered, sadly signing:
ct was all so foolish-that l see
And that is not the worst" said she:
'''T is not my greatest sorrow;
I can not eat-I can not sleep
And all the day weep, and weep
For fear I'll weep tomorrow

RUM AND CRIME.
The Inevitable Effects of Intoxicating
Drinks on the Physical and Moral Nat
ures of Those Who Use Them.

The Inevitable Effects of Intoxicating
Drinks on the Physical and Moral Nat
ures of Those Who Use Them.
Hon. A. B. Richmond, in discussing
1.-THE Relation of Rum to Crime in
the Chautauquan, says:
II have practiced law forty years,
have been engaged in over four thou
sand criminal cases, and on mature
reflection | am convinced that moro
than three thousand Of thcm originated
in drunkenness alone, and that a great
portion of the remainder could DO
traced either directly or indirectly to
this source. In seventy-six cases Of
homicide in which | either prosecuted
or defended, fifty-nine were the direct
and immediate results of the madden
ing influence of Intoxicating drink,
while in number of the remainder
the primordial cause was this prolific
source of misdemeanor and murder.
So certain are the criminal effects of
the licensed drinks of the saloon and
bar-room, that a chemist in Analysing
them should not be surprized to de-
tect crime in q crystalline form
existing as an original element
in their composition; while it
would not require the microscope
to discover tho monad cells of cvory
sin incident to fallen man in the foam
OF the oeer-mug or the dregs OF tho
wine-cup. 1t is useless to attempt to
!, saIliate the effects of Intoxicating
drinks on either the physical or moral
being OF tho pooplo, or TO find rca-
sonable excuse for the laws that license
their sale as . beverage. No one
truthful sentence can be uttered in
their defense. Tho scalpel of tho sur
geon with unerring certainty has re-
vealed the inevitable germs o. disease
and death in the human system planted
by even moderate use OF intoXicant;;
while tho records Of our crinlnal
courts are stained on every page with
the history of tho crimes committed
through their influence. These arc
not the simple assertions o. mi#akcn
zeal and fan;Ltic;sm, but tru'.ls as
clearly demonstrated BY scionL, ana
proved by evidence as a proposition in
Euclid or q recorded fact IL S:stcly;
and he who dcnics ;ham is either will
fully ignorant of What he nigh: lca?h
or he ignores bo;h truth and or
science in denying what he ices tnows

THE GIRL BACHELOR.

She No Longer Boards, But Takes Rooms
and Lives without a Chaperon.
was counting on my fingers last
evening the girls know in New York
who have set up apartments or in
stalled themselves IN establishments of
their own. l ran over the digits on
one hand, and then of the other, and
repeated the operation so often that 1
lost all track OF my reckoning. The
girl bachelor grows enterprising. She
no longer boards, she makes bachelor
home. She takes rooms. She lives in
them without chaperon. Her con-
duct is unquestioned. There is no
limit to the pluck and the independ-
ence OF the young and unmarried and
perfectly decorous and entirely delight
full unmarried woman. She is no longer
an unprotected female. She has found
out that ;:;ter all a girls best protection
is girl. The last decade evolved a
phrase. The present decade is now
at work evolving another. Bachelor
suites is established in the language.
Maids suites or Dorothy apartments,
as somebody in conversation the other
day christened them, are going to find
place before long.
Yesterday 1 drank a cup of tea with
brown-eyed Dolly. Dolly has a small
fortune and is twenty-five. Her father
died, her relations with her only rela-
tive, an aunt, were strained. The two
did not thrive under the same rooftree.
The kettle sings ON the hearth most
merrily since Dolly has hired a fiat and
butler, and set up a buffet and re-
ceives calls on her own responsibility.
Novel situation. Piquant experience.
Delightful days. No surveillance and
no darkness. Dolly is a lady and
behaves like one. She is careful whom
she entcrtains. She is as demure as a
Puritan damsel, as jolly as a Partisan
bohemienne. She plays at housekeeping
most cheerfully.
Gray-eyed Dolly is young wood
carver. She supports herself by one
of the newest occupations found prac-
ticable for women. She has three
dainty rooms in the last place you
would dream of, over a stable. De-
lightfully pretty rooms they are, whore
bric-a-brac picked up in all manner of
odd places, summer sketches and winter
studies, old plaster casts and new
panels, inexpensive hangings with sud-
den flashes of color in scarlet ribbons,
stained floors and Koula rugs make
one forget that such things as Turkey
carpets, sil1en divans, Louis XVI.
chairs and old Sevres china were ever
by anybody deemed desirable. Gray
eyed Dolly is wholly self-dependont.
She has supported herself since she
was fifteen. She tired of hall bedrooms.
She doesn't like the dreary atmosphere
of the average city boarding house.
She does like her own little nest of a
a stable home where she has a cat and
an open fire and can follow the inno-
cent inclinations of her own sweet will.

Not long since a prominent New
burg divine was called upon by a wo-
man who inquired if he would marry
her. He answered that he would most
certainly. Shortly after this the lady
again visited him and informed him
that she was ready. The dominic said
very well, and inquired where tho
groom was. To his horror the woman
announced that he was the party who
had said he would marry her, and that
she was ready to fulfill her part OF the
contract! Of course. the good minister
explained that he understood she meant
for him to marry her to some other
person. not to take her himself, and
she departed highly indignant.

A WELL-TRAINED OWL.
He Roars Like Little Tiger When Hi
Dignity is RULED.


Dignity is Rufiled.
My own bird is at liberty. This he
uses to the very best of his ability,
making the third member in our small
house. He is by no means the least
important, for he claims and receives
the greatest attention at meal times.
He steps from his perch on to the hand,
sits on the place appointed for him,
and chatters all the time it is in prog
ress. Sometimes, by way of change,
he will run about inspecting all things;
he is very swift on foot and most in
quisitive. Very affectionate, too; he
shows that plainly. He is about more
in the daytime than in the evening or
night. and he will sit in the full light
of the sun. All through the hot sum-
mer of 1887 he has done so as matter
of choice.
His food consists of mice of all kinds,
birds of the finch tribe, old and young.
Starlings. blackbirds and thrushes he
will not cat. nor insects such as Charters
and others of a similar kind; he will
not oven look at them. 1t is not al
ways possible to procure birds and
mice for him; then he will content
himself with tender, lean beef, quite
fresh. He is so particular in that mat
ter, though, that he will not eat fresh
pork. He seldom drinks water, and
never uses it for the purpose of wash
ing, preferring to roll and scratch
about in lump of drift sand like Il
domestic fowl. In fine feather he now
is, and he keeps himself beautifully
clean! His legs are long, and he uses
his toes and claws with the dexterity
Ola monkey; in fact. when at his little
games he is moro like little monkey
than an owl.
His conversation, kept up continu-
ally, is a Groom and chatter, and when
in high glee he will puff the feathers
Of his throat out and look intently at
me with his bright yellow eyes and
treat US with a solo sounding like the
gobble of some unfortunate turkey.
If l ask him as particular favor to
change that tune, he will give a sue
cession of shrill banks like a terrier.
He roars like tiger when his dignity
is ruffied, and squeaks like pig. This
does not occur very often, and when it
does the fault is my own. 1t generally
happens when he is introduced to
strangers, which he hates. AS rule
he is most amiable. If l wanted to
cure man of melancholy and never
smiling grief l would present him with
a little owl, the Punchinellc of his
tribe. Magazine.
