stimulates ever digestive agency, and
cold liquid has the reverse effect. That

it needs to be assisted rather than ham,

A FARM IDYL.

Thro' the barn lot, to the meadow, singing sweet
~, Katie came.
Thro' the fragrant hawthorn hedges, that out
lined a long green lane,
To the spring OF running water. where the cattle
come to drink
Where the blue forgetmenots grow and nod up
on the brink:
Katie came with pals a-swinginR.
Calling up the cattle, singing
'H'Coo-e, coo-e, come up Brindle, come up Sukey;
-''Coo-e. cooe,' like flute the notes ring
clear.
While /. listening, linger. hoping more Of those
sweet notes to hear.
Now / wonder II, with pencil, I her image could
portray,
So that IL you chanced to meet her, you would
know her any day;
All her pretty airs and graces, and the color OF
her eyes.
That need not tell you-you can see 1t in the
skies
When the day is bright and clear, like the one,
with pals a-swinging
Katie came to call them singing,
"Coo-e, coo-e, come up Brindle, come up
Sukey,
~Coo-e cooe," like flute the notes ring
clear
While the wild birds listen wondering il some
strange bird is not near
There she stands, pretty picture, with her
curling golden hair.
While its rings and tanYles almost hide her
forehead fair;
Like peach her checks are blooming, and her
mouth is like rose,
Holding pearls in rows full even; with slight
tip-tilied nose.
And q chin, soft round and dimpled like
baby's, holds q charm
While her sleeves tucked up to elbows show
her softly rounded arm.
This is Kate, with pals a-swinging,
Calling up the cattle, singing,
"'Coo-e. coo-e, come up Brindle. come up
Sukey.
Coo-e, coo-e;' like a flute the notes ring
clear.
And the cows come slowly up, knowing milking
time is near
As the cattle come up to her, Katie pats them
with her hand.
For she knows a little petting makes them all
the gentler stand.
Now she stoops; the milk IS flowing in steady
stream and white,
While th- pail is swiftly filling, with foam like
snowdrift light.
All the while is Katie singing,
Soft the fiute-like notes are ringing
Out upon the air: "Coo-e, coo-e time 10 ny
ing,
To their nests the birds are hieing,
Robin soon will come to carry
Back the pals we must not tarry,
Coo-e. coo-e. Robins come, and my work is sl.
most DONE
Then she leaves the cattle standing, as she
quickly turns to go.
Stoops and picks a little daisy, laughing says:
My f1te I'd know
Robin leaves the pals to help her count the
leaves as down they fall.
First. he loves me. loves me truly; last he
loves me not at all;
els that So" says Katie laughing. "Well, I'm
not at all alarmed"
For all answer Robin takes her unressting in
his arms
So they 10Th go home a-singing,
Mingii Z notes like sweet bells ringing,
~Coo-e, coo-e, come up Brindie come up

one person who had passed through ar
experience of this description, and he
was an adventurous youth, named John
Miller, whose home was in the State OF
New York.
remember Johns appearance dis
tinctly. He was tall, slim lad, with
muscular limbs, and not an ounce of
superfluous flesh. No exertion seemed
to tire him; he could run like a grey
hound, and appeared never to get out of
breath.
He was q matchless wrestler, too: as

When about nineteen. in company
with three other lads from his neighbor-

some other occupation with spice of
excitement in it. The excitement he
certainly found, although not precisely
in the manner he could have wished.
The four youths speedily learned that
neither as cowboys nor miners could
they stand much chance of arriving at
sudden fortune. In the expressive phrase
of the region, they were merely ''ten-
.derfeet." At the mines hundreds of
disappointed men were before them:
while the cattle ranges swarmed with
more cowboys than could possibly find
employment.
In the intervals of prospecting, our
young Eastern friends spent their time
in hunting; and this they greatly en-
joyed, as all had Winchester rifles and
considering their limited experience,
were very fair shots.
While living in state of uncertainty
as to their future course. they erected a
log hut foi present convenience. and
proceeded to make themselves as much
at home in it as circumstances would
permit.
From this they made wide excursions
into the surrounding country, and hav-
ing purchased an old mule with por-
tion of the money they had brought
with them from home, they were enabled
by these means to convey their game to
the mining camps. where they were sure

GAMES OF YOUTH,
Exercises Which Benefit and Games That

InJure Children.
Playing marbles and all games that
bring the face and hands forward and
down tend to degrade children in many
ways. In the first place, the position
cramps the vital organs, narrows and
shortens the front thoracic cavity, and
widens, lengthens and bends the back,
which is just the reverse of what is de-
sired. 1t also makes the head shoot for
ward, all of which are injurious to health
and morals. Then, too, these games be-
get in children a slovenly habit and a
fancy for ''chancing." Jumping rope
should be vigorously excluded from the
girls games. 1t possesses not one single
merit, and is always attended with in
jury. A little later in life woman's
modern ailments are attributed to the
climbing Of stairs, but truly spring from
rope jumping.
Flying kites is good for the boy land
the girl, tool as that brings him into the

he may use his poor neglected left hand.
This erect position gives expansion to
the entire torso. and healthy activity to
the vital organs and bronchial tubes,

THE COLOR OF WATER.
why Some Lakes and Rivers Are Blue and
Others Green.

Why Some Lakes and Rivers Are Blue and
Others Green.
What is the color Of pure water? Al
most any person who has no special
knowledge of the subject will reply at
once: 1T has no color" Yet every
body knows, either through hearsay or
by the evidence of his own eyes, that
the ocean is blue. Why the ocean looks
blue is a question that few who have
crossed it have ever sought to solve, and
there are. probably, many travellers who.
though they have seen most of the IA
nous rivers and lakes in the world, have
failed to notice the remarkable differ
ences in color which their waters pre-
sent. Even the ocean is not uniform in
color; in some places its waters are
green. or even yellowish. Some lakes
are distinctly blue; others present vari-
GUS shades of green, so that in some
cases they are hardly distinguishable
from their level, grass-covered banks; a
few are almost black. The Lake Of
Geneva is azure-hued; the Lake of Con-
stance and the Lake of Luzerne are
green; the color of the Mediterranean
has been called indigo. The Lake Of
Brienz is greenish yellow, and its neigh
Dor, Lake Thun, is blue. New York has
both green and blue lakes. The cOlors
of rivers differ yet more widely. The
Rhone is blue, and so is the Danube.
while the Rhine is green. The st. Law
renee is blue. These various hues are
not caused by mud, or any Opaque sedi-
ment, such as that which makes the Mis-
sissippi coffee colored. but belong to the
waters, like the golden color OF tea,
without greatly impairing their trans
parency. The cause of the difference
in the color of lakes and rivers has en-
gagged the attention of many celebrated
Investigators of nature, such as Tyndall,
Bunson, Arago, Sainte-Claire Deville and
others. Recently Prof. Spring, OF the
University of Liege, carefully investi-
gated the question of the color OF
water, and has reached some interesting
conclusions. According to him, abso-
Lutte pure water, when seen in masses OF
sufficient thickness, is blue, and all the
varieties of color exhibited in lakes and
streams arise from the presence in the
water of mineral salts of different de-
grees of solubility and in varying guam
titles. Water containing carbonate OF
lime in state of almost complete solu-
ton remains blue, but if the solution is
less complete the water will have tinge
of green. which will grow stronger as
the point of precipitation is approached.
Prof. Spring concludes that, if lime is
added to blue water in which so much
carbonate of lime is already dissolved
that the point of saturation is ap-
preached, the water will become green.
In proof of this he cites the fact that
the water near the shores Of lakes and
seas, where it comes in contact with
limestone, is generally OF greener hue
than elsewhere.-Nature.

THE ORSINI CONSPIRACY.

Attempt Of the italian and His Friends to
Assassinate Napoleon III.
On January IA, 1858, Paris was thrown
into a whirl of excitement by the at
tempt of Orsini and his companions to
take the life of Napoleon III. The con-
spiracy of which this was the culmina-
tion was carefully planned. A manu-
facturer in Birmingham, England, was
induced to make six missiles of a pecu-
liar shape. Each was oval in form, and
provided with twenty-five nipples near
one end. with percussion caps to fit
them. The greatest weight was at the
end on which the csps were. Conse-
quently, when the bomb was thrown it
was pretty sure to strike the ground so
that an explosion would follow. A
Frenchman living in Lond0n bought
alcohol, mercury and nitric acid;
made decorating compound from these
materials, and filled the shells with it.
The bombs were smuggled to Paris by
the conspirators with the greatest eau
tion, and the authorities were success
fully eluded. On the evening of January
IA, 1853, the Emperor and Empress were
to 60 to the opera, and Orsini and his ac-
completes prepared for the occasion. At
night, while the carriage conveying the
Emperor was passing the point where
the conspirators were lying in wait,
three loud explosions were heard.
Several soldiers were wounded; part of
shell passed through the Emperor's hat;
General Roquet was slightly wounded
in the neck; two footmen were struck by
the flying fragments while standing be-
hind the imperial carriage; one horse
was killed; the carriage was shattered,
and most of the gaslights in the vicinity
were extinguished by the explosion.
The Emperor took the matter calmly,
and proceeded to the opera as if nothing
had happened. The police did their
work rapidly and effectively. They ar
rested Orsini, Pierri, Rudio and Gomey,
who were all on the spot where the ex-
plosion occurred. Three of the hand
grenades had been thrown. and two more
were found on Orsini and Pierri. The
fragments of the three shells had
inflicted no less than five hundred
wounds, and Orsini himself had been
struck by one of the pieces. Rudio and
Gomey were sentenced to the galleys,
while Orsini and Pierri paid the penalty
of their crime on the guillotine.-Chi-
cago News.
