GOLDEN DREAMS.
By S. J. SREET.

By S. j. SKEET.
Kind dreams of the past come fitting
Like glorious scenes In bright sum
mer sky,
Filling my heart with its raptur"us
beauty
And blending Lies sweetness In
charming reply.
The mirror of youth, rejecting minds
treasure,
Portrays in Its CLEANS the thoughts I
hold nearest
NV dear angel mother-soul's sweet
est pleasure
All on this earth / hold sacred and
deares+,
Like sun beams that dimple the dark,
angry ocean,
Soft bursting the bonds of storm
clouds overhead,
1t gives wormth and grandeur, still
ing lite's motion
While burying cares with the sepul-
chred dead,
What is existence without the pure
traces
That memory links in our lives after
years,
Bringing before us the dear happy
faces
While tenderly calling our smiles
and our tears?
Who can look back to the love of a
mother
Without thoughts divine, joy melting
in beauty,
And as> his warm heart If there Is
another
That gave half the love, help, kind
ness and duty?
Or, If from the grave, where silent,
reposipg,
The shades of our dear ones come fit
ting to mi I'd,
Sadly, yet sweetly, we find hearts
disclosing
The crystals of love for those left be-
mind,
Yet dreams Of the past in memory
yelling
Come wildly picturing Times blast
ing shores,
Where signs for the past, with
smiles of foretelling,
Point Hope to that place where we
meet evermore.

REFLECTIONS.

Honesty and policy are the essen
tial servants of worldly, prosperous
business man. The trouble Is with
many, they engage policy at an enor-
nous salary TO rule the firm, he being
a sharp wittpd trader, while plain,
manly and straightforward honesty
is usually engaged for mere pittance
to sweep the store.
Many religions place a grand and
majestic sun o glory 30 elevated in
the heavens that thousands cannot
see it without the powerful telescope
of human reason. Morality lights q
wax taper upon earth Ito guide
humanity over the dark, rugged and
dangerous paths of life. But when
the glorious sun OF eternity's morn
ing breaks upon mankind's over
joyed heart, proclaiming his
heavenly destination, tits accep-
ted with rapturous alteration
and gratitude. Morality's taper
dwindles into insignlficance, and
Religions beautiful and holy light is
enthroned, worshiped and followed
in It's place.
While conflicting human passions
and interests are in existence upon
earth, we should never bask in the
Utopian idea of becoming immaculate.
The very best we can do is to
ameliorate and hold in check the
cause and effect of the evils attending
life, and assist those who are sLrug
Cling bravely to attain the pinnacle
of the glorious hereafter, where all
may seek redress.

BEFORE THE CAMERA.

Oliver Wendell Holmes is always ex-
tremely bright and pleasant, and he takes
a good picture.
Mrs. Mary Livermore is very brief and
businesslike, and she let's the artist use his
own Judgment.
Edward Everett Hale is abrupt and
trife nervous, but very businesslike, and
takes good picture.
As a rule, General Butler makes sugges.
tions to the photographer, and his manner
is little bit dictatorial.
General Russell A. Algeris very courteous
and easy going, and he poses well, and the
results are always excellent.
Nine. Albani won't sit for a picture the
day after she has appeared ON the operate
stage because she thinks the work tells on
her expression and eyes.
Salvini is the ultra polite Italian, dis
penses bows and smiles, and scatters COM
pliments right and left. Photographers
never have any trouble with him.
Miss Frances Willard is difficult to take
and to please. She talks all the time In
front of the camera, and she usually makes
the photographers work hard.
Rev. Joseph Cook is not an easy subject
He is brusque and sometimes irritable, and
his wife, who superintends the process Of
photographing him. is extremely difficult
to please.
Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage rushes into the
photographers like good sized breeze.
He Is always pleasant and sprightly, and
he pours out an uninterrupted torrent OF
interesting monologue from the time he
enters until he leaves the gallery.
Governor Russell, of Massachusetts,, is the
ideal sitter to a photographer. He is ex.
ceedingly affable and friendly, and to the
photographer he is, so to speak, as clay in
the hands of the potter. Nevertheless, the
governor doesn't take good picture His
face is "hard to get" as the picture takers
say.
No photographer can do anything with
Bishop Phillips Brooks. He can't be per
suaded to sit for picture that will be ex.
hibited or sold, and the story is told of him
that he gave fifty dollars to some young
ladies who had asked him to sit for his
picture, that copies might be sold at
church fair, In lieu of the money they could
make out of his photograph.
w. d. Howells invariably sits for his
photograph in the afternoon, because he
works in the morning. He walks about
gallery and asks pointed questions, and al
ways presents the impression of an incor
rigible quiz" His pictures are too heavy,
and photographers say that they convey
an appearance of stolidity In the subject
that Mr.. Howells never has.
