Fashionable Smuggling.

There is great deal more of this
fashionable smuggling than wonld gen.
orally be supposed, says a New York
letter to the Chicago HraH. While
it is not all confined to very rich peo-
pie. yet tits certain that they do a great
deal more than thci. share of it. The
experience of the officials also bears
out the general impression that it is
almost as natural for a woman to smuy.
gle as it is for her to breathe. 1t is
hard for her to realz, that bringing
In 5onnets and everything else which
can contribute to her wardrobe when.
ever the chance is pres ented to do so
without paying duy is not both her
right and her duty. Consequently the
women inspectors at the Custom House
have great deal more work to do
than their fellows among the men.

The Heights and the YJilcy,

He stood in the valley with eager eyes
Turned 10 the peaks where the sunshine
lay,
30, for the heights that are near the skies,
The glorious heights that are far away
He cried, and ever his longing grew
To climb the sleeps till the heights were
won,
And ever a wild unrest broke through
The daily tasks that must be done.
1T must be lonely on those far heights"
Said the friend he told of his wild desire.
Better the valley of old delights"
But the heart Of the dreamer was all on
fire
With the thought Of reaching the bills afar,
And he would not tarry with friends OF
old,
But followed the flash of ambitions star,
AND climbed up the mountains bleak and
cold.
There were rocky places where feet must
bleed;
There were awful chasms where danger
lay
Through nights of darkness and days of
need
Towards the peaks he longed for ne took
his way.
And nearer, nearer the peaks OF snow
Each day the climber in rapture drew,
Forgetting the valley that lay below
And the valley friends who were kind ard
true
At last the terrible heights were scaled:
Alone on the desolate peaks stood he
In the moment of triumph his courage
failed,
And his heart turned valIeywaTd longing
ly.
o, to hear the voices of friends again.
To clasp hand that was warm and true.
o, to love and be loved, and to share with
The little Joys that the valley knew.
Better the valley with peace and love
Than the desolate heights some souls at
tain.
Lonely is life on the hills above
The valley lands and the sunny plain.
What is fame to love? Can it satisfy
The longing and lonely hearts of men?
On the heights they must hunger and starye
and die
Come back to the valley of peace again

A Bear Killed with a Marble.

Mr.. Austin Moore, a mining engineer
of Scranton. Penn, was walking the rail-
road track Il mile below Pleasant Valley,
at dusk, when he was startled by the
crack of a rifle and by the almost stimuli
taneous appearance of bear and two
dogs that came rolling and tumbling
down the steep bank to the railroad
track. The bear had been wounded.
The hunter who had fired the shot did
not appear on the scene. One of the
dogs got in front of the bear and the
bear knocked it out of his way and broke
one of its legs. He also disabled the
other dog in short order. Mr.. Moore,
meantime, had got out of the immediate
neighborhood
The bear had been chased from the
Spring Brook woods down into the Lack
awanna Valley by two hunters. They
had lost sight of him Just before be
plunged down the embankment near
where Mr.. Moore was trudging along,
and, as 1t became dark soon afterward,
they gave up the chase. expecting that
the dogs would find their way home next
day.
The wounded bear passed the night in
a small piece of woods less than a quarter
OF mile from where he had disabled
the dogs. Between and : on the next
morning the night Waterman at the
breaker took short cut through the
piece Of woods % his home. and saw the
bear sitting on his launches with his
back braced against tree. He was lick
ing wounded paw, and he didn't seem
to notice the Waterman at all. The man
ran home after his gun and found he had
no shot. From box Of marbles that |
belonged to his children he selected one
that fitted the gun and rammed it down
on top of big charge of powder When
he got back to the woods the bear was
still licking his paw, and the watchman
stole up within three or four yards and
blazed away. His aim was good. and
the tear tumbled over dead He weighed
229 pounds, and when they cut him open
they found that the marble had lodged
in his heart.

The Atlantic has been in very bad
humor for the last three months.
Nearly all the voyages of European
steamers to the westward during that
lime have been troubled by tremendoSs
seas and by constant storm, and fog in
places where one is usually met with.
But the opinion is confirmed By all this
bad weather that the modern steamers
are practically proof against the wors,
that the Atlantic Ocean can do; they
have only collisions with other steamers,

Natty went to the lecture with her
