The alleged "reciprocIty
treaty" with SPAN gwen out in
Nj. Hairison's proclamation is
mere synopsis of the Spanish
tariff te be enforced for Cuba and
Porto RICO. How much re-
ciprocity" there is IN il for
American farm products may be
easily inferred from The following
samples of duties charged by
Spain under the "permanent
schedules:
10. Corn or maize. DC per 100 kilegrams.
~. Corn meal. 25c per 100 kIIogram ms
~. Wheat 30c per 100 Kilograms.
43. Wheat iiour, u per 100 Kilograms.
As kIogram IS 2.2 pounds
this Is a lax Of 81 LEVIED against
the entry Of every 220 pounds Of
Western -four shIpped to Cuba or
Porte Rico. This sort OF thing
may be Mr.. Harrison idea Of
reciprocity, but It will moi
awaken any great enthusiasm IN

Goethe at Marienbad.

Marienbad, the favorite watering place
Of those who are overburdened with their
quantity Of "toO, too solid flesh" !" is at the
height Of its season, and, as usual, "full
up" One Of the chief subjects Of interest,
discussion and general conversation just
now Is the discovery Of an old visitors
book" at one Of the hotels situated on the
place in front Of the church. It used to
answer to the name Of "Zur Goldenen
Taube," but has recently been dubbed
Goethe HAus" In cOmmemoration Of the
fact that seventy years ago the poet staid
at It during his first visit to Marienbad.
He was then seventy-One years old, and re-
peated his visit the two following years.
In the old visitors book, which the pres
ent proprietor has unearthed and which is
now being gazed at by batch after batch Of
visitors, the following entry is found un-
der the date Of 1873: 81. JUL bis 90 Au-
gust, Herr Johann Wolfgang Y. Goethe,
aus Weimar" The num-
bers Of the four rooms occupied by tho
Minister Of State" are also given, to-
gether with the sum he paid for them.
Those who are acquainted with Marienbad
prices Of the present day may be interested
10 know that GOethe's rent for four rooms
which he retained about eight weeks
amounted to 400 gulden.
Another interesting entry in the same |
nusty tome from which the information is |
gathered tells Of a visit from the Comte de |
,t. Lou, brother OF the Emperor Napoleon |
king tolland and father Of the Em-
'ero~ n III, who staid at the

Davdnvn An tbe Countrv,

do not think that It is ever real morn
ing except in the country. In the city, in
the early part Of the day, there is mixed
color that climbs down over the roofs op
posite and through the smoke Of the chin
ney, that makes people think It is time to
get up and comb their hair But we have
real morning in the country. Morningl
descending from God ont Of Heaven like a
bride adorned for her husband" A few
moments ago looked out, and the army
Of night shadows wero striking their
tents. A red light on the horizon that
does not make me think as 1t did Alexan-
der Smith, Of 1.-THE barren beach Of hell. I"
but more like unto the fire kindled on the
shore by Him whom the Disciples saw at
daybreak stirring the blaze on the beach
Of Genesareth.
Just now the dew woke up in the ham
mock Of the tree branches and the light
kissed It. Yonder, leaning against the
sky, two great uprights of flame, crossed
by many rnndles of frel Some Jacob
must have been dreaming Through those
FURNISHED gates flaming chariot rolls.
Some Elijah must be ascending. Morningl
wish had a rousing bell to wake the
whole world up to see it. Every leaf a
psalm. Every flower a censer. Every bird
a chorister Every sight, beauty. Every
sound, music. Trees transfgured. The
skies in conhagratiOn. The air as if sweep
ing down from the hanging gardens Of
heaven. The foam of celestial seas FLASHED
on the white tops Of the spir5ea. The
honeysuckle on one side of the porch chal-
lenges the sweetbrier on the other. The
Odors Of heliotrope overflow the urns and
food the garden. Syringas, with bridal
blossoms in their hair, and roses bleeding
with a very carnage OF color.
Oh, the glories Of day dawn in-the coun- |
5ryi Mypen trembles and my eyes moisten. !
Unlike the flaming sword that drove out /
,he first pair from Eden, these fiery splen-
iors seem like swords unsheathed by angel |
lands to drive us in.-Dr. Talmage in
