cOt.-.,iy. and the last trembling EN-

TO the village station, as if his great
heart halted midway between his love
and iadi:rnation- For il was fools
crrand. was it not? \ hcadstrong in
clination to desert n good home and its
duties for n whim- But his boy had
not ran away at least, and he would

heart most of all. as with frantic skurry
he bayed the train away.
Wen, we'll. the great town opened its
arms and took the young man in, as
the myriad lamps of night laughed and
winlIed at his conccit, twinklcd and

long boulevarlS of darkness, till they
seemed to change to fiery scrpents with
many a coil Kissing Here comes an
other. What shall we do with him?'
And now the dull roar of the streets
gave answer: 1--WE know what to do
with him" To all of which the boy re-
piled: Have / not read all about it? |

come to prey, not to be preycd upon"
But it must be confessed again that
one is not quite so confident, standing
in the actual presence of the vast me-
tropolis, as among the mountain paths,
looking thitherward. The city opened
its jaws ana took him in.
1t is not for us to tell all that the city
did with the aimless and pitiful fool.
He was not without a welcome. Many
welcomed him He was strong, and
could give much strength away. His
veins were full, and it took many
moons to suck them dry. He was
mountain fed, and his fat wasted slow

fires were kept burning, and Gods laws
We're enforced.
We saw the end this summer. It was
in this wise. We were riding down
from the Tip-top house as the sun went
down, and sat beside the loquacious
driver. AS we stopped to untrig the
wheels in a farmhouse yard. an old
man sat by the wall, his white hair
roseate in the days farewell, and un-
utterable sadness in his fine old face.
\ few ncighbors loitered about the
tidy gateway, and a cheap Grape knot
fluttcred at the door beneath the porch.

And we were silently attentive at his
reply, while he went on to explain
You see, sir. the city had him about
a year. He had good time; too good
The doctors wrote from the hospital
His father went after him They
thought the mountain air would revive
him. But the fool hath said in his
heart there is no God, and"
And driver, the city ground him up

Decline of the Banjo.

The professional manicure is lament
ing the decline and fall in New York
Of the banjo, which truly delightful in
strumcnt sent many a bright dollar in
her direction. Banjo playing is ruin TO
the finger tips. 1t makes them sore at
first, but after a few weeks of practice
they become hardened and equally un-
lovely. That little airy flip of the
fingers across the strings that looks so
pretty is trying on the nails, and hang
nails often become chronic. For the re-
lief of all these ills girls were wont to
appeal TO the manicure with gratifying
regularity. Now, however. mandolin
playing is the proper thing. and the
little steel thinble worn is ample pro-
lection for the most delicate fingers.
There is certain romance about the
mandolin that the banjo never had. and
for evening music on piazza or q
yacht its possibilities are boundless

Something New In England.

One of the recently-deceased mem
bers of the Royal academy has defied a
longest ablished precedent and be-
queathed a double portion of his estate
to his daughters, leaving his sons, even
the adored eldest son, with less gen.
erous provision The usual pleasant
and convenient custom in our mother
country is To devote the family income
to sending the boys to a first-class
school, and later to establishing them
in life advantageously, and, finally, to
leave the poorly-educated girls practi-
cally destitute at the death of the father,
that the property may go the sons; in
all of which may be detected decided
suggestiveness of the custom prevalent
in some barbaric countries of killing
nearly all of the babies at birth which
are unfortunate enough - be girls.

men repaired to an alderman's office,
where each swore out warrant against
the other for illegal fishing. They
were promptly fined twenty-five dollars
each, and each received the informer's
share of the fine. one-half. thus re-
ducing the penalty fifty per cent. When

Having read recently Il very inter
esting article about 'Four-footed Fun
Makers" said gentleman, Il won
der whether any naturalist has ever
made a special study of the number of
quadrupcdS and birds that will freely
imbibc alcoholic liquors / have fire.
qucntly seen it stated that enormous
doses of whisky are administered to
elephants afflicted with lung troubles,
and / infer that the huge creatures
rather like that kind of medicine.
Grows are said to become grotesque-

grain is scattered for their benefit by
farmers who desire to wiring their

in which n dog, goat or some other
animal (besides the human) is exhib-
tied as confirmed tippler. Indeed, un-
less the goat is grossly ibelled, he is
depraved and chronic topper.
Il want to spin you an authentic
yarn about pet squirrel that owned
some years ago, and that acquired
voluntary jag on one occasion, but
never again. Benny had the freedom
of the house most of the time, and
big, fat, pran1ish fellow he grew to be.

he understood il all.
''One Saturday evening, Just as some
nice now ale was served, Master Benny
must have been extremely thirsty, for
out he frisked upon the table and calm
ly proceeded to drink from the nearest
glass until he was satisfied. For
youth of his size he drank pretty CO.
piously, too. Shortly afterward he was
put into his cage for the night
Next morning when | approached
his cage he did not jump up nimbly as
usual to greet me, but lay lazily in
corner and yawned, yawned, yawned,
once and again rubbing his ears with
his paws. 1t was as plain a case OF
head and remorse as | ever exper-
l mean, witnessed. About noon time
he began to brighten up, and was soon
as frislly as ever, but thenceforth until
he died the very odor of ale oholic
beverage would send him skipping
away. One dose cured Benny."-N. Y.

a SONG OF REST.

Oh. sing me n song OF evening,
A song OF peace aad rest.
When, weary with useless flying
The wild birds seek the nest;
When the lamps OF home are lighted
And III Sc we love draw nigh,
And overhead the kindly stars
Are smiling in the sky.
The day has been dark and dreary,
The shadows fall thick and fast,
And my limbs ana my heart are weary
From battling with the blast;
And now as the shades of evening
Creep darlzly o'C- the land,
/ sigh for "A breath OF peace and rest
And the touch OF friendly hand
My thoughts turn back in the twilight
To scenes long passed away,
When. frcc from the tirau OF labor
Wandered in childish play;
see the viuc-CIad doorway,
Where eft rSy II thcr stood.
And the thoughts OF home know no more
Come DER me like flood.
Then sing me q song Of evening,
or peaceful love and rest;
/ am weary of useless striving
And / long for the shc,tering nest.
The rugged shadows of evening
Are filling all the land,
And sigh for a breath Of love and rest
And the touch Of 4 mothers hand.

The coming Institute at South Bloom

provemcnt and recreation combined to

We expect that real estate in Island
Pond will have quite boom in a short
time, as the proprictors of the York pas
ture, c. M. Dyer and G. E. Clarke have
decided to lay it out in building lots, and
have already built road through it con-
Meeting with Mountain street at one end,
and the westerly part of Middle street at
the other end. There has been quite a
demand for building lots of late and now
that available lots are offered we expect
to see them rapidly taken by shrewd in
vestors and buildings erected thereon, for
the locality is all that could be desired,
in fact the securing Of one of these lots
must of necessity prove valuable invest
ment. The owners have decided that the
new street shall be named after the man
who first commences building operations.
We see no reason why the development
and improvement of Island Pond should
be confined to any one portion, but OIL
the contrary should be general, and thus
contribute materially to the towns val
uation,
