WANTEO-A CAREER.

20 10 do something, my heart kept repeat
ing
Something so beautiful, noble or fine
That bright ii should bloom like flower in the
desert;
That clear like star in the night it SHOULD
shine"
Then l looked in the sky; twas a.quiyer al
ready
With star upon star, through the glittering
night;
I looked DER the land, twas a-f1utter with
flowers
what need of my wee one to make it more
bright?
Then ! looked in my heart, and saw mid its
motives
What from my own vision gladly would
hide:
Commingled with longings for art aud for
beauty,
All. much of ambition, of envy, Of pride,
Then / looked where no star-beam e'cr comes
penetrating,
Where the fow'rs are crushed out in the un-
ceasing strife,
The pitiful struggle for merest existence
That moelSery makes of the thing we call
life
And gave to child that was waiting with
hunger
The comfort, the beauty OF everyday bread:
To a soul that was starving for sympathy s
music
a commonplace word of encouragement said
O. rich this new field for my thought and my
labor,
And soo,hed was my longing for beauty and
art,
Eor flower sweetly bloomed on my own bar
rem pathway.

Aerial Navigation.

Germany has society for the pro-
motion of aerial navigation, which is
patronized by the emperor. The first
experiments are to be made with col
ossal gas balloon ffty-six feet in di-
ameter and correspondingly tall, and
with improved equipments calculated
to give it longer floating qualities. 1t
is believed this monster can be made
to travel at height of six miles. 1t
seems strange that. after all the scien-
tifc effort in aerial navigation, moth
ing better than a bag of gas can be de-
vised Such an apparatus can never
be guided to any considerable degree
but must go with the wind. 1t would
seem that machine Of sufficient light
ness, lifting power and safety could be
coutrived. Until that is done the Gues-
tion of navigating the sea of atmos-
phere will not be satisfactorily solved
Perhaps when the storage of elec ctricity
for purposes of power is fully developed
we shall have such machine. We
must have strong steady power ap-
piled to light apparatus. AT present
the combination of electricity and
aluminium for the material works is
the most practicable in sight -Cincin-
matt Commercial Gazette.

A Judge of the Massachusetts SUI
perior court has habit. when making
a charge to the jury, of allowing his
voice to drop SO that his words can
with difficulty be caught. While sent
encing prisoner at Lawrence, he fell
into the habit, and a man in the court
room shouted: Speak louder, your
honor, Speak up.'' Send that man
out, Mr.. Officer said the judge; and a
friend of the individual, knowing the
penalty which might be inflicted upon
him for such contemptuous proceed
ing, advised him to get out of town at
once. SO the man hurried out, and the
court went on. Call the next case"
said the Judge when he had finished
with the prisoner in whose case the in
terruption had occurred. Terence
O'Flynnl' called the clerk; but no
O'Flynn arose. The crier called him,
but there was no answer, and the
officers of the court began to look
about. 1t was discovered that Prisoner
O'Flynn had disappeared that morn
ing, and his absence could not be ac-
counted for, until some one said: May
it please the court, Terence O'Flynn

Education Late In Life.

The story of Fraulein Grain, propri-
etor of girls school in Berlin, is full
of interest and encouragement for
women who have missed opportunities
for study in early life. Fraulein was
the daughter of an invalid mother,
to whom she devoted all the earlier
years of her life as nurse and house
keeper. At thirty-six she found her
self without home. without family.
without means and without sufficient
education to obtain teachers certifi-

to secure a certificate; and, with less

Jack, quietly. And then, taking the tin

But instead of stopping ut Lawyer

the old homestead, where Mr.. Belchers
and bradford had taken up their abode.
The lawyer and his son, having re-

HIDDEN TREASURE.
Uncle Sol Found a Fortune, But
Not as He Expected.

ure again last night, Jack" said old
Skipper Maxwell, resting his oars bit
to draw his sleeve across his weather
beaten face, which was moist with
perspiration.
Don't doubt it a bit, Uncle Sol,
laughed Jack Belchers, who sat in the
stern sheets Of The dory, sandpapering
some macllercl jigs to proper degree
of brightness.
IF you'n !, no0, could only be lucky
enough to find it. Jack, think of the
good the money'd Go Us, | wouldn't

left you his property, as folks always
calc'lated he would do"
Il shall never understand why my
adopted father did not make a will be-
fore he died Jack responded; never,
for he spoke of doing so very freely
che last time was home on vacation.
You don't s'pose, Jack" said Skip
per Maxwell, involuntarilv lowering
his voice, ''that Squire Belchers might
"a made one, after all, and that air
sealy brother of his-Lawyer Belchers
got hold of it an hid it away?'
Nonsense, rather sharply inter
rupted Jack. Lawyer Belchers is too
shrewd to commit crime that would
send him to state prison. No. that sort
of thing is done in stories a great deal
oftener than in real life"
I'D believe anything that's bad of
Thurston Belchers, or his boy either"
the skipper returned, persistently.

Skipper Maxwell drew in his oars and
dropped the killock a buclletful of

motion peculiar To the maciSerel

few moments the fishermen we're busy

their hands could fly.

Maxwell, as once more the lines tended
downward through the intense green
ish-black water. There's the Spray

Jack involuntarily frowned.
The Spray was the stanchest and
handsomest boat in yarmouth harbor.
Squire Belchers had her built for his
adopted son only the year before.
But after his death no will was found,
so his brother Thurston, as next of kin.
took out letters of administration and
coolly limited to Jack that his room in
the great old-fashioned house, so long
his home, was better than his COM
pany.
Rather than be idle when he was
laying plans for his future actions,
Jack, dressed according to his work,
accompanied Uncle Sol down the har-
Dor in his trips for the fresh fish with

mer hotels, which were just then full
