Where arc oil those young ambitions, framed In

With halo mist OF glory woven from the sun

Gone before their realization, like effects with.

Vanished in tho misty limbo OF the Land Of
Where arc NIL those toppling castles turrct.

Gay with youths and laughing mnidons thro'
their echoing porticoesr
Where are those aerial brownstoncs with their
garguylcs OF red mist,
Touched with sardonyx and topaz and with gold
md amehysti
They have foated on the summer clouds that
never wait nor pause,
Down below the dim horizon OF the Land OF
Noverwasl
Where arc all those golden gallcons floating on
the tideless seas,
With their sendal sails distended bound for the
Hesperides,
Sailing thro' tho dancing dolphins, thro' the
Hrchipelagoes.
Where each tHHed breeze is heavy with tho
cinnamon and rose!

sails have turned to gauzo,
And, .liko dream ships, they have vanished in
the Land OF Neverwasl
'Tis the purple land OF rainbows on IN island
far away,
None but little folks and babies meath its

Never does bird of passage land upon its tow

THE suANETiANS.
A Peculiar People Iniablting u Portion of
tho CaucHsus Country.

A Peculiar People Inhablting u Portion of
tho Caucasus Country.
Each community is made up OF sew
eral villages, originally consisting each
of members OF the same family or gems,
but now including several families.
Members of the same family can not
intermarry. Women and pasturage
rights have been occasions of many
feuds and vendettas. Whom woman
changed hands or husbands, the parties
concerned could not always agree on
the value in cattle-the Suanetians
had no moncy-of the lady exchanged.
Hence arose assaults OF persons and
batteries OF towers. The affairs OF tho
hamlet. 80 far as they were not settled
by appeals to arms, were regulated by
an assembly OF adult males, in which
unanimity was required for valid de-
cision. The foreign relations of the
Suanetians consisted, for the most part,
in predatory excursions into neighbor's s
pastures. They were arrant sheep
stealers and cattle-lifters. Strangers
met with no hospitality. On tho con-
trary it was the custom to exact a pay
ment from them for passage, and the
custom still survives in petty demands
made for hating in a remote village.
The Suanetians may fairly be de-
scribed as reverted pagans. Some
Christian rites-fasting in Lent, and
the use OF the sign OF the cross-they
have doubtless preserved. But these
survivals seem 10 me no more 10 en-
title them to tho name of Christian
than our own midsummer night 6ros
constitute us sun-worshipers.-D. w.

WOMEN IN EUROPE.

Important Omces.

They Win Degrees and Are Filling Many
Important OGlces.
The 210 ladies who hold degrees In
arts and sciences are entitled to write
the letters b. A. after their names. or
these 144 matriculated ut the London
University, IS at the Royal University
of ireland, and II at the Victoria Uni
vcrsity. Twenty ladies have obtained
the degree of B. Sc, while IA have OBJ
tanned that of NJ. A. Only two are
privileged to write B. Mus. after their
names, and both of these degrees wero
conferred at the Royal University of
Ireland. Two others enjoy the honor
indicated by the letters ID. Sc.
Nearly one hundred women are now
serving on school boards in England
and Wales. Boards in four country
districts have women as clerks. Fifty
eight women are serving on boards OF
guardians in England, and seven in
Scotland. A few instances are on
record of female overseers, church
wardens and parish clerks being ap-
pointed. Four ladies are on the Metro
politan Asylums Board, one is n poor
law inspector, one an inspector OF lace
manufacture in Ireland, and Mt least
six women are filling the Office of reg
istrars OF births and deaths, in each
case the woman having assisted hus-
band or father in carrying on the work,
and at his death succeeded to the post.
In France there is female delegate
general for the inspection of infant
schools. This is as it should be. The
lady lacks one qualification, however.
She is unmarried. 1t is possible that
she may rectify this. Three married
women are members of the committee
of consultation of primary instruction
in Paris. Another is inspector OF
schools Of design in that city, and a
fifth is not only inspector of Ecoles
Maternelles, but was elected to the
Council OF Education last year. In
Holland only one woman holds pub
lie office, that of Conservator of the
Museum of International Art ut Am
sterdam. The inspector OF normal
female schools at Naples is n lady. and
Queen Margherita of Italy has a lady
physician. An English woman fills the
post of curator of the Natural History
Museum in Hawaii, capital of the Sand
wich Islands. London Truth.

wha, Constitutes a Tree.

There nre shrubs so tall and 80
vigorous that they may we'll be con-
sidered trees, and there are trees so
low and OF such feeble growth that they
hardly deserve the name OF trees.
Really there is no hard and fast line
which separates tree from shrub,
and any classification OF plants which
attempts to separate trees from shrubs
must be purely artificial, and, there
fore, unsatisfactory. The best defin-
ition of tree we have seen, and ono
that goes long ways towards answer
ing this perplexing question, was pre-
sented by Mr.. B. L. Fernow to the Bo-
mnical Club OF the American Associa-
ton, at It's recent meeting at Columbus.
Trees are woody plants, the seed Of
which has the inherent capacity Of
producing naturally, within their ma
tive limits, one main erect axis, not
divided near the ground, the primary
axis continuing to grow for number
OF years more vigorously than the
lateral axis, and the lower branches
dying off In time" is Mr.. Fernow's
definition OF tree, and 1t is sound
and philosophical one.-Forest aud

AUTOMATIC TOYS.
European Novelties Recently Imported by
q PhilRdeIphih House.

The latest arrival is an Egyptian
harpiste, or Moorish queen, accord
ing to taste. She is little body, only
two feet tall and automatic, but she
knows more than some people twice
her height and alive. She is elegantly
dressed in Oriental finery. When she
is wound up she plays the harp with
great skill and accompanies the exer-
else with appropriate expression and
gesture.
A handsome, dark-skinned trouba-
dour came over with the harpiste. He
is Just as accomplished as his compan-
ion. When he started and begins to
strum his guitar his eyes roll in &C.
stacy. just before he runs down he
is overcome with emotion. His hand
goes up TO his eyes and his tongue rolls
out OF his quiyering mouth.
A figure no less noteworthy and no
less talented is little blonde Parisian
lady dressed with all the latest art.
She is wound up by turning key in
her hustle. Then she turns her head
gracefully, rolls her eyes coquettishly,
puts up her Eyeglasses, fans herself
with the air of belle and flirts with
everybody abont her.

A PATHETIC STORY.
Prof Ressicr's Long and Unavailing Search
for His Lost wife.

for His Lost wife.
Many of our people see a gray-haired
and bearded old gentleman walking
along the streets, with sadness about
his countenance which, though, can
only be detected after close observation,
for as soon as he seesyou smile lights
his countenance in token OF recogni-
ton. He is German and a musician,
and is seen every night at the opera
house when there is an entertain
ment. His name is Prof. Ressier. He
came to this country some sixteen
years ago, from Germany, to make his
home here, leaving his wife behind un-
til he could get settled, when he would
send for her. Having secured this de-
sired end, a letter was dispatched home,
telling his wife of his success, and bid
ding her to come. 1t Is said that she
sailed from her native home with a
glad heart, in anticipation OF meeting
with her husband after an absence OF
two years. Every vessel that came
over was eagerly looked after, the
newspapers were scanned for intelli-
gence of her arrival, but nothing could
be heard OF her. The ship on which it
is said she sailed arrived at Baltimore,
and the wife landed there. The
professor, with joyous heart, went
there, but 10! no trace of her could be
found, and the days, weeks and months,
untll fourteen years have passed with
out his knowing OF her whereabouts.
From city to city has he gone in the
search. His head was black then; now
it is white, but there is tenderness in
his face, made with sorrow, and a
ranking in his heart, but he goes on
and on, with the hope of finally meet
ing his long-lost wife.-Athens (Ga.)
