that an inexpressible, indefinable, but
very valuable, sentiment may depend
ON some patience, anxiety, canonical
delicacy. conventional reserve on
the one side, to meet action, judg-
ment, choice. decision, initiation on
the other.
1t may be that an equal, unre-
strained, similar and open access to
each other for initiative or confes-
sion of love might wear away much
bloom, wonder, sanctity, which is
preserved by the difference of rela-
ton of the two to the beginning and
avowal.
A seeker and sought, proposer
and a considerer, a leader and a fol-
lower, petitioner and giver may
be fairer sight and more whole
some to love than two who may
challenge each other equally, who
therefore have no defined duties or
sweet reciprocities regarding each
other. who perhaps may delay for
each other-the stupid situation-or
may strive to get the start of each
other-an utterly demeaning and un-
doing rivalry-or may scramble to
forestal others-a profane haste
which often is bad enough now. st.

Whore Leeches Come From.

The large leeches, such as those of
Japan, which reach two feet in
length, are not in common use, nor
are certain poisonous sorts, such as
the small black leechos of Australia,
The thick, fat, fierce worms of Hun
gary, Sicily and France are preferred
by practitioners who use leeches, and
it is from those countries that the
rest of the world is supplied. The
San Francisco leech farm is formed
by placing quantities of the ooze of
the Bordeaux swamps, especially i'm
ported for the purpose in large boxes
with tight covers.
The leeches bore about through
the muck until wanted for sale,
when they are counted out, washed
off and disposed of, ready to bite any
living thing, and hang on until they
are swollen to eight or ten times
their ordinary size. Then they drop
off and lie dormant until assimilation
shall have been finished and hunger
again arouses them. San Francisco

Mans Inhumanity to woman.

There is a young married woman
in this city who declares that mer

that her own husband is the most
heartless of his race.
She and her husband went down
to the seashore one Thursday morn.

little boy of three years, and nurse,
and after seeing the Others comfort
ably fixed the husband returned to
the city.
On Friday afternoon, as he was
seated in his Office chatting with a
medical friend. he received q tele-
gram reading:
Dear Harry Jack has swal-
lowed silver five cent piece. am
almost distracted. Telegraph me
what you think had better be done. "
The dispatch was handed to the
doctor, who said: "As there's no
danger at all, it will be all right if
the youngsters given a dose OF oil. {"
With sigh of relief the relieved
father thereupon wired:
Dear Edith--Don't worry. Ihave
sent another five cent piece by this
evenings post"
Later on he telegraphed about the
oil, but the awful mockery of his first
dispatch was too much for the young
mother, and she declares she will not
forget it for long while, IF ever"

On one occasion our mothers pres
ence of mind saved tie life of the
child Laura, then baby of two years
old.
We were all staying at the institu
ton for some reason, and the nursery
was in the fourth story of the lofty
building.
One day our mother clne into the
room, and to her horror saw little
Laura rolling about on the broad
window sill, the window being wide
open; only a few inches space be
tween her and the edge. and then
the street, fifty feet below.
The nurse was--I know not where:
any where save where she ought to
have been. Our mother stepped
quickly and quietly back out of sight
and called gently: Laura, come
here, dearl Come to mel | have
something to show you
A moments agonized pause and
then she heard the little feet patter
on the floor, and in another instant
held the child clasped in her arms

and probably would have fallen and
been dashed to pieces. St Nicholas

Rindoo witcbcraft.

All Hindoos believe in witchcraft,
and, in strange contrast to the old
believers in witchery, they believe
that young and pretty maidens are
the chief actors in such uncanny
mummery. If crops arc blighted or
II a general sickness prevails they
write the names of all the young
women of the vicinity on separate
tree branches and then immerse the
stems of the twigs for four hours and
a half in a solution of holy water and
aromatic herbs. If one or more Of
the twigs wither during the specified
time the young women whose name
or names is attached thereto is i'm
mediately put to death. Thus the
influence of the witch is counteract

stored. st. Louis Republic.

The PopuIist retain control of the
Farmers Alliance by the re-electin of
President Loucks. G. w. Macune,
the Democratic Leader, has will
drawn from the order, and declares
his intention to start an Alliance of
his own by organizing the cotton
planters of the South into gigantic
trust, which will enable the planter to
sell direct to the manufacturer. This
it is thought, means the complete di-
vorcement of the Northern and South

The service should include the an
cient forms of religious observance.
The tabernacle psalms may appropri-
ately be read, and the old Watts's
hymns may be sung.
The festival should be, as of old, one
of service to the poor. On Thanks
giving Day, as at the Roman S@cu-
lum and Saturnalia, and at the old
English Christmas, all people should
be equal, and should share their bless
ings in common. The most unfortu-
nate, tempted and ignored should be
made to feel the warmth and constrain-
ing influence of the day Of charity.
In this year of 1892, old New Eng
land history may well be revived.
We are making new era; we are
winding up the clock of the new CEN
tury. 1t has become custom to un-
dervalue the local poet: it is an I'M
worthy thing; nearly every town and
neighborhood has some one who has
the gift OF writing poems well, and
who feels the local inspiration. We
as nation should honor ourselves by
the recognition of these rural singers.
Let Thanksgiving this year be day
in which the poets shall be called upon
to interpret the past. He who loves
the poetry of nation will never be
untrue to the nations traditions.
Let this year be seculum, a
Thanksgiving of a hundred Thanks
givings.

l can recall but one Thanksgiving
Day on which rain fell, or when the
atmospheric was anything but genial
and balmy. About San Francisco
Bay, and extending back into our two
great centrae valleys, Thanksgiving
time is combination of in-gathering
and out-putting; it is both harvest
home and seeding time in one. The
early rains have served to clean the
dust from trees and shrul berry, have
washed the brown haze out of the air
and softened the summer-baked soil
sufficiently to allow The ploughs to
move.
