A Bird's Eye rie,r or the Derby.

1t is one o'clock before you leave the cul-
tivated lands behind, and toll slowly up
the steep hill to the downs, where the white
dust rises suddenly like mist and shuts out
the rest of the world, leaving you in white
cloud which blinds and suffocates you. II
makes you understand the mosquito nets in
front Of the hansoms and the blue aud green
wells around the mems hats.
II is dust which conceals everything
from view except the rear Of the coach just
in front and the flashes of light where the
sun strikes on piece II brass mounting
1t is like moving though fog at sea. One
hears the crack offthe whips and the creak-
ing of wheels and leather all around, aud
the half-hearted protest of some guard on
his horn, but one can only imagine what
the dust hides, and comes out of it on the
top of the downs as out of Turkish
bath, gaspiug and fearful, and wondering IL
those other people know how white and be-
draggled and haggard they look. The top
OF the downs is one vast encampment-an
encampment without apparent order or goys
ernment, with every dust.covered hedge in
sight lined with picketed horses and DON
keys, and with hundreds more grazing along
lines Of rope which early risers have stretch
ed for your convenience and their possible
profit. You must pass through mile OF
this impromptu stsbling before you reach
the race-track proper, and between rows and
rows Of carts resting upon their shafts, and
hanson. cabs with the drivers seat pointing
skywards, and omnibuses abandoned for the
time to gypsies and hostlers. It's biyouac
as great as that Of any army corps. In the
centre Of these open.air stables rises the
grand stand with its back towards London.
1t is the highest grand stand in the world,
and the people on the top Of 1t cannot be
recognized from the ground even with sn
opera glass. II faces one end Of horseshoe
track-a turf track with stout rails on eth
er side of IT, In the centre Of this horseshoe
track is valley, and this valley, and the
track, and the downs beyond the horseshoe
track, are covered for miles with what looks
like succession of great and little circuses
and their accompanying side'shows. There
is not row of booths here and bunch Of
tents there. but long, irregular avenues and
streets built Of booths and flag covered tents,
with canvas pictures for walls, stretching on
beyond one another for mile, like fight
ing line of old battleships with all their
canvas set and all their signals flying and
in amongst these are thousands oil peo-
pie pushing and showing and moving in
black blocks and streams and currents with
a soldiers scarlet coat or gypsy's yellow
shawl showing for an instant, and then dis
appearing again in the ocean Of black heads
and white faces.-Hdrpers Mdgd<inc.

Read this, Husbands.

A certain amount of social life is nec-
essary to us ALTO the old as we'll as the
young, writes Edward B. Box in a per-
linent article on mans inability to see
things as others see them. A woman
never grows so old that she ceases to en-
JOY the company of others, and generally
the older she grows the more she enjoys
it.
1t is always pity to see man fall
into state which he explains by saying
ooh, we're getting old, aud dent care
for so much variety in our lives" In
the pure unselfshness of his soul he al
ways speaks of "us" and Eve" as if it
naturally follows that because he is get
ting antiquated his wife must keep pace
with him in his decline. Men all too often
make their wives too old. 1t is a greater
credit to husband to keep his wife
young than to make her grow old. His
actions and his habits necessarily inhu-
ence those of his wife. Let him keep in
touch with the world, and both he and
his wife will be the better and younger
for it. like to see man proud of his
wife because she keeps young.
Old age is beautiful and has its advan-
Iages, but man makes a great mistake
when he rushes woman unnecessarily
toward it. And he does it most perfect
ly when he deprives her of those
enjoyments which every man should
give his wife. No economy so false,
so hollow and SO misguided as that which
seeks to withhold one pleasure from the
life of a good woman, true wife or low
ing mother. The best home man can
give a woman becomes "poky" as one
woman | know expresses it, if she is ask
ed to live in it 365 days out of every
year. The good Lord knows that wom-
ans life in this world is hard enough
She travels a path of enduring and suf-
fering, to which man, be he ever so heav-
lily afflicted, is an entire stranger.
1t was given to man to make that path
as pleasant, and easy and as bright as
possible. Every dollar which man
spends for the happines of the woman Of
his home will come back TO him in dou-
bic, yea, in fourfold measure.

Kept HIS Promise.

Mr.. Samuel Blackwell, of Alabama,
the newly appointed third auditor of the
treasury, is an instance of what genuine
man can do in curbing his appetite or
shaking off a dangerous habit when he
makes up his mind for long, running
fight.
He returned to Selma at the close of
war, a young and very attractive fellow
of strongly social disposition, and
promptly fell in love with one of the
bellies of town that is noted in the
Southland for its beautiful women. The
affection was mutual, but Blackwell, like
so many other youngsters in the ranks,
had acquired thirst which he proceeded
to slake whenever the humor seized him.
The lady of his heart finally told him
that she would marry him, but upon one
condition only.
"What is that ?"
"That you will not swallow a drop Of
intoxicating liquor for ten years."
"That is long time between drinks"
said he.
81 know it," she said, "but---"
"WilI you wait that long, he inquir-
ed.
She replied that she would. He re-
sponded "All right" and went out
They we're faithful during the decade of
probation. At the end of the time they
were married Mr.. Blackwell has rig
orousIy refrained ever since the day
when he set his hat squarely on his head
and walked out of his sweetheart's par
lor.- Washington Pot.

odd Things About Money.

There are ll9, 900 old copper pennies
somewhere. Nobody knows what has be-
come of them, except that once In while
single specimen turns up in change. A
few years ago 100000 bronze two cent
pieces we're set ahoat. Three million Of
them are still outstanding. Three million
three cent nickle pieces are scattered over
the United States, but it is very rarely that
one is seen.
OF 300, 600 half-cents, which correspond
in value to English farthings, not one has
been returned to the government for recoin-
age or is held by the treasury. Congress
appropriates from 500, 900 to $3.50, 900 year.
ly for recoining the uncurent silver coins
now in possession Of the treasury. These
are mostly halfdollars, and are not circua-
ted, because there is no demand for them.
Not long ago the stock Of them amounted
TO s26, 200, 900, but it is only about half that
now. The money set aside for reeoinage Is
not intended TO pay for the cost Of minting
but is required to reimburse the treasurer Of
the United States, on account Of the loss OF
weight which silver pieces have suffered by
abrasion. This loss amounts to $50 on
every 81 900, and il has to be made good.
in order TO set the treasurer's accounts

of n former hired man in his employ, re-
marked quietly "He's a pretty good

What He Would DO

"What a lovely boy" she exclaimed,
bending an enraptured gaze on pretty
year old playing ON the turf of the river
side: The whole party paused and pet
ted him and fat little pampered poodle
nosed the youngster jealOusly. Aud the
lad with his golden curls, blue eyes and
aristocratic features was certainly a pret-
ty sight. He was dressed i'll velvet
Eton jacket aud cooked hat with an os-
trich feather in it, aud his fond mama
sitting ON the nearest bench, drank in the
glances of admiration aud words Of praise
as sweetest incense to her soul.
"Oh, you dear child," cried another Of
the ladies.
"COme away Fido. He won't bite you
DEAR" Still the lad looked on the pud-
gy dog doubtfully.
"What would you do if you had a nice
little dog like thatg" inquired the lady
at the end of the ribbon.
"I'd knock the everlastin' stuffin' out
of him." promptly responded the little
chap. Whereat his fond mamma turned
crimson.
"Come on FidO," said the owner Of the
dog stiffiy. But the rest of the party
looked as if in hearty approval of this
sentiment, especially the solemn young
man who was with them PiH.bTg Die

The Chimney s,caIIor.

They have come far TO rear their
broods in this northern cline; farther
perhaps, than almost any Of the birds now
here, for they come from the sunshine OF
the far Central America and the West
Indies-regions which are part Of the
worlds kitchen, always warmed by the
kitchen fire-and these happy birds leave
it for their chosen breeding places in the
green spring fields far north, On
the borders of the of the worlds refrige-
rator. Only they do not seek the green
fields for their nesting they build their
queer nest in unused chimneys. All the
ioy. all the life of these remarkable birds
is in the air, and in fight. All their
vital functions are performed "on the
wing !" even the dead twigs Of which their
strange built nests are constructed are
shipped off from the tree without pause
in their fight. Their happy chirruping
voices are heard in the pleasant evening
twilight of May and June, as they dash
forward in their zigzagging flight in pur-
suit of swarms of the minute insects in the
air. In several respects they are peculiar
and interesting birds.
