The Heavens In the North,

From the last days of May to the end
OF July in the northern part of this land
the sun shines day and night upon its
mountains, fiords. rivers. lakes, forests,
valleys. towns, villages, hamlets, fields
and farms, and thus Sweden and Nor
way may be called the land of the mid
night sun. During this period Of con-
tinuous daylight the stars are never seen.
the moon appears pale and sheds no
light upon the earth. Summer is short,
giving just time enough for the wild
flowers to grow, to bloom and to fade
away, and barely time for the husband
man to collect his harvest, which, how
eves. is sometimes nipped by a summer
frost.
A few weeks after the midnight sun
has passed the hours of sunshine shorten
rapidly, and by the middle of August
the air becomes chilly and the nights
colder, although during the day the sun
is warm. Then the grass turns yellow,
the leaves change their color, wither and
fall: the swallows and other migrating
birds fly toward the south; twilight
comes once more the stars, one by one.
make their appearance, shining brightly
in the pale blue sky; the moon shows
itself again as the queen of the night and
lights and cheers the long and dark days
of the Scandinavian winter.
The time ome at last when the sun
disappears entirely from sight: the heav-
ems appear in a blaze of light and glory,
and the stars and the moon pale before
the aurora borealis. LAND of the Mid
night Sun"

Boarding House Amenitie,

0Oot0ln8 HOUSE Amenities.
They were talking at the boarding
house table about Smith. the lawyer,
who was not present.

OF the table, and who is himself a law

two brown biscuits that the teacher had
her eyes On, Eyes, but that is such .
common failing Of lawyers that ! never
take any account Of it."
And then the other boarders who never
dare TO indulge in such amenities laughed
wildly, while the lawyer said he

his profession was always SO amusing to

The Restless Man.

OF all tireso,ne things a restless man is
the worst. Arestless woman cannot be-
gin to come up to a restless man. She
gets physically tired out after awhile ard
must sit down. But a mamie can go
IN and on forever.
In cafes, railroad trains, theaters-in
fsct, wherever men do congregate-there
also is the restless man. driving every
one distracted with his ceaseless tramp
ing. He goes up. and he goes down. but
he is never weary.-New York Herald.

The Antiquity Of the Lark.

The very first thought suggested by .
study of the migration Of birds is one of
time. In tracing the migratory habit to
its origin we find the history reaching
back to the times previous to man, and
we begin to realize how ancient is the
aristocracy Of the air. The lark did not
come over with William the Conqueror,
but his armorial bearing, if he thought it
worth while to have any, would antedate
those of every noble family in Great
Britain.-Mrs. J. B. Southworth in Al
bany Journal.

His Regard For Himself.

The comfortable. well clad citizen was

Drawbacks to Legal EQuality,

Verify, with the assumption Of their
rights women renounce their privileges.
In one of the western states the wife is
liable to be sued for the expenses Of the
family as the husband Is in this state. A
wife has been held liable for the pay
ment of the family butcher bill when the
husband ordered its items, and in an
other ii the wife has been held jointly
responsible with the husband for a debt
incurred in the purchase Of a carriage
which both used.
These are phases of the perfect equality
between men and women not so greatly
to be desired above the existing state Of
affairs. When a woman becomes rse
sponsible for a husbands debts as thu
lord Of the household is now holden for
mis- lady's obligations, the privilege of
voting for mayor and president will
scarcely recompense for the responsible
ity Of the new dispensation.-New York
