Willimantic Journal: As stated in the Journal last week recent purchases of land by the New York, New Haven and Hart ford railroad company have put that cor poration into possession of all the land ly- ing between the tracks of the New Eng land road and the river from the Air Line Junction easterly to the line of the Wind ham company, which is about 800 feet from the latter's office. The Air Lines main track will be extended to that point and sidings built to afford additional yard room. The work of grading began yester, day. The railroad company are desirous of obtaining from the Windham company strip of land so as to continue their tracks down to Bridge-st., and have negotiated for the same, but as yet unsuccessfully If they shall succeed it will necessitate the removal of the office of the Windham com pany to another site. If the New Haven company succeed in getting through to Bridge street will they be likely to erect g depot at that point

My engineer found that his hot water pipe would not work, and after puttering at it for an hour sent for machinist. He both cred with it half day and concluded 1t must come apart. I was much annoyed, for that meant the stoppage of my factory for long time. Before I gave the order to take it 10 pieces some one suggested that neighboring engineer be sent for. as he was a sort of genius in the matter of machinery. He came, and after studying the pump awhile he took a hammer and gave three sharp raps over the valve. ] reckon she'll go now, he quietly said, and putting on steam she did go.

 A pretty sight often seen on St. Charles avenue, New Orleans, is little boy riding his bicycle with his black -and-tan dog standing behind him. The dog holds on by holding his front paws on his masters neck, and appears to have no fear, no mat ter how rapidly they travel. The Pica- yune says that the other day the dog grew weary of the sport before the boy so, without any ado, he tucked his head down on the boys shoulder and went to sleep. A Methodist church at Lowell, Mass has decided to use water instead of wine | in the communion service. One of the members, who had been drunkard, ac- cording to his own statement, and had twice returned to his old habits through the temptation placed in his way at the communion service, was the cause of the change. The minister said he could never pass the wine to him again, aud the church unanimously consented to use water in- stead.

THE BEAUTY OF THE MATRON.

At What Age Does Woman Reach Her Full
SplendOr?
The notion still held by certain shallow
women that maturity is ugliness is one of
the most incomprehensible pieces of non
sense of the time. Here is a fair muddler in
one of our contemporaries complimenting
Nine. Albani on having overcome her ma
tronliness and on the renewed girlish-
ness of her appearance. From this l
should judge that women who live on pub
lie exhibition fear nothing so much as de-
velOpment. If they can only stay all their
lives in lisping and glutinous sweetness
and not grow they are satisfied. To get on
in appearance, or in character, or in
strength is calamity. In this extraordi-
nary view of things green coddling is bet
ter than ripe pippin. Women who ex-
hibit themselves have only one standard of
merit, and that is youth. Poor creatures,
they do not know that the pretty girl
ought to become the handsome woman,
and never reaches her full splendor until
she is matron. They cannot comprehend
the fact that fixed beauty has no existence
except in death. and even then only when
the emhalmer has got in his work. The
law of beauty in life is the law of develop
ment and attainment. and the beauty of a
matron and the beauty of a miss differ
from each other as one star differs from an.
otner III glory-and, curlously enough, the
older the star the more beautiful it be.
comes.
Women who think of nothing but how
they shall stay young are women of char
acterless minds. All things considered, tn,
greatest woman is she who can grow ole
gloriously and defy time with something
better than enamel. But your woman VIII,
is professionally on exhibition has got t.
bring to the market what the public mos
desires. And it is a patent fact that the mol
would rather look at the pastryness of you'll
than at the perfection of personality. 1t il

When on my day of life the night is falling.

Leave not its tenant when its walls decay;

Be near me when all else is from me drifting,
Earth, sky. homes picture, days Of shade and

And kindly faces to my own uplifting
The love which answers mine.

Be with me then to comfort and uphold;
No gate of pearl. no branch of palm merit,
Nor street of shining gold.
Suffice it II, my good and i'll unreckoned,
And both forgiven through Thy Astounding grace,
find myself by hands familiar beckoned
Unto my fitting place.
Some humble door among Thy many mansions,
Some sheltering shade where sin and striving

And flows forever through heavens green expan-

The river of Thy peace.
There from the music round about me stealing
fain would learn the new and holy song.
And fnd at last beneath Thy trees of healing
The life for which long.
