We, Too, Have an Empire on Which the
rni sun Meyer Sets.
Webster's eloquent description of the
British Empire is very readable, but We
doubt whether it is generally realized
that we, too, have dominion on which
the sun never sets. 1t will hardly be
believed, perhaps, without an examina-
ton of the maps, that San Francisco,
instead of being the west line of this
dominion, is only about midway be-
tween our eastern and western limits;
and yet it is fact that the furthest
Aleutian isle acquired in our purchase
OF Russian America. is as far 10 the
west OF that city as Eastport, Maine, is
to the east of il. Between the north
west limit OF Washington Territory and
the southern limit OF Alaska there is a
break of few degrees, but with the
slightest reduction our territory cx-
tends through 1876 degrees of longitude.
or IL degrees more than half way
round the globe.
Hence, when the sun is giving It's
goodnight kiss to our westward isle, on
the confines of the Behrng Sea. IT Is
already flooding the fields and forests
OF Maine with its morning light. and IN
the eastern part is more than an hour
high. AT the very moment when the
Aleutian fisherman, warned by the ap-
preaching shades of night, IS pulling his
canoe toward the shore, the wood
chopper of Maine Is beginning to wake
the forest echoes with tn stirring
music of the ax.-1he Great Ditide.

The clerk or mechanic earning only
moderate wages sees the woman he
would be glad to call his wife arrayed
i'm expensive gowns, which hc knows
could not be bought with the residue OF
his salary when the living expenses OF
TWO people had been deducted there
from.
He naturally asks himself the qucS-
tion. .Would she be willing TO do with
ont these gowns and dress according TO
our means. or would be compelled to
witness tears and lamentations when
ever she may be denied some costly adj
dition To her WARDROBE
II the woman is loving and sensible
he need have no fear She would be
the exception if She allowed her passion
for dress To override every other feeling.
Many a lonely SpinStcr. enjoying all the
myuries which a liberal. undivided sal
arv has enabled her to purchase, would
gladly exchange them for the tender
care of devoted companion, for the
touch Of baby fingers. But think my
fair sisters are largely at fault in cloth
ing themselves as they do. aud thus DIS
couraging prudent lovers.
1t is an astonishing commentary on
the tastes OF men of the present day,
that in the ranks Of the unmarried
females are to be- found 50 many Of the
noble. the heroic, the Self-Sacriiicing,
while those who are led to the hymenial
altar a fair proportion are hated chiefly
for their frivolity and pertneSS' lor
their ability to attract and keep in their
train a string Of bcaus. Why do men,
wise in other matters, seem to prefer
these little butterflies, scores of whom
see daily i'm stores and shops. to their
more staid and retiring sisters?
1t has been more than once broadly
limited to me that to capture some speci-
mems OF the Sterncr sex requires vast
amount Of eXertion, eXcrtion which
these retiring women. from their very
nature. are Incapable Of making. Here
i'm lies one reason for their failure to Sc
