SOME DAY.

They'll all come back again" she said,
That by-gone summer day,
The while we watched the goodly ships
Upon the placid bay.
"They sail so far, they sail so fast, upon their
shining way,
But they will come again, know some day
some other day"
Some day SO many watcher sighs,
When wind-swept waters moan,
With tears pressed back still strives to
dream
OF the glad coming home.
Good ships sail on DER angry waves. meath
skies all tempest gray,
For quivering lips so bravely tell; "They'n
come again-some daym
Some day! We say it DER and DER,
To cheat our hearts, the while
We send our cherished ventures forth,
Perchnnce with sob or smile;
And tides run out, and time runs on, our life
GIBBS fast away,
And yet with straining eyes we watch for
that sweet myth-some day.
Full many true and heart-sped bark
May harbor find no more,
But Hope her beacon-light win trim
For watchers ON the shore;
And those who bide at home and those upon
the watery way,
In toll or waiting, still repeat: "Some day
some blessed dayn'

THE TRUSTING PLACE.

Westward over the pale green sky
The rosy pennons of sunset fly;
Westward slowly the great rocks HE,
With cawling and labored tapping;
The bushes blend in a vagueness dark,
And the further trees stand tall and stark
] hear the rushes Whisper and shake,
As flutter Of wind begins to wake,
And louder grows
In the quick repose
The sound of the rivers tapping.
Stiil half an hour, by the abbey chimel
come to the tryst before the time;
| hearken the rivers rippled rhyme
And the sedge's rustled greeting;
And cheat my heart with feigned fears,
And sigh as / wait for no one hears,
TO make the joy more rich and vast
When feel his lips on my own at last
And hear no sound
As the world goes round
But the throb of our two hearts meeting.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.

Surplice waists Of thin dresses have the
fullness from the shoulders prettily shaped
into pointed yoke by drawing ribbon
through casing made Of facing an inch
wide strip from each armhole to a point
lower down on the edge of the front.
The ribbons meet at the point of the bust
and are tied in bow. Surplice waists
of embroidered muslin have their front
edges straight from the shoulder down,
then edged with Valenciennes lace frill,
and crossed at the waist line. This
leaves aV space at the top, disclosing
the pretty plain white lawn lining, with
its tiny thread buttons, and above is a
turned-over collar of the embroidery and
lace, which is first sewed on high
standing collar of the lawn.
Eight or ten rows of shirring around
the waist line are employed by French
modistes to hold the fullness of blouse
waists Of sheer white lawn. The mate
rial then falls two inches below the shir-
ring, and lace or embroidered edging.
also two inches wide, Is sewed to the
edge of the muslin.
Full straight skirts Of lawn are gath
efed to belt of lawn, and the ribbon
belt and sash are then set permanently
outside of this lawn belt. The skirt is
put on after the waist is on, and there is
no ugly opening between the waist and
skirt. A French fancy is new way of
using ribbons on white lawn skirts. The
skirt is straight, and is deeply shirred be-
low the belt, having six rows of shirring
done in pairs, leaving space an inch
and half wide between these double
rows. Ribbon an inch wide is then
passed in and out in the spaces between
the pairs of shirring - C0urier-Jomnal.

AUGUSTA, Me, Jan. 2G-The
statement in the New York Herald
that Mr.. Blaine had been appoint

here and aroused much discussion.

us adopt the same line of policy
that has made them rich, and

as one OF the most favored in the

| think may safely say that no
section of the Union is making as
rapid strides in development and
in the establishment of factories OF
all characters as the Southern
States.
Without the protection afforded
by the tariff laws, this rapid de-
velopment would have been i'm
possible. Therefore no section Of
/ the Union has been for a number
of years or is likely to be as much
benefited by protection as the
Southern section. No section has

tinuation of protection for its
future prosperity and development.
