sARThoLDps STATUE.

Even as a mother, when the twilight falls,
With flaming candle high above her head
Peers from her cottage door and softly calls
Her lettering children who too far have strayed
And smiles to hear their shouts come through
the gloom,
Waving her haring light to guide them home
So standest t~hou-great statue from thy height
Streams out one constant welcome DER and
DER
While alien serfs and exiles catch thy light
And pull with eager hands for freedoms shore.
Their homes are founded on our prairies free,
They build their fanes within our mountains
shade
Or, southwark, nestle meath the orange tree,
Free to abide where'er their feet have strayed.
No more we see the singing lash cut deep
The dusky flesh Of supplicating slave,
No more through cypress swamps the blood
hounds creep
To hunt him to his master-or his grave.
Though black. though white. of high or low de-
gree,
The hand that feeds thy watch fire now Is free.
Great. grand, majestic monumen of love,
A burning altar by the sounding sea-
Mizpah-imploring God to watch above
Between our banner and the fleur-de-lis.

A Custom That Is Very Old Indeed.

A bride made the confession to group
of young women who gathered around
her after the wedding ceremony and the
congratulations had been said and
owned up to having worn "a yellow gar
ter for two years, that she had counted
the stars and carried out the various
bits of lore that are prophetic of aspeedy
marriage and happiness eve after.
She wore something old and something new,
Something borrowed and something blue.
IN her wedding night, and, moreover,
wore a silver COMA Columbian half
dollar-in her shoe. She was showered
with the usual amount of rice when it
came time to get into the carriage and
drive away for the honeymoon trip, and
had old shoes and good wishes enough
sent after her to make the after years
joyous n if they all hold good, and,
moreover, when she opens her trunk and
travelling bag and the bridegroom opens
his umbrella enough rice will come to
light to make their first rice pudding, and
the shoe strapped on the outside Of the
trunk will tell its own tale.
1t is strange how much enjoyment one
gets out Of such harmless things, but the
custom lasts, and the older it grows the
more rigidly it is adhered to.-Buffalo

Where Frank r. Stockton Lives.

Follow the Morristown road, past one
country seat after another, for a quarter
of a mile, and you come to'Kitchell ave-
nue.. You are in Morristown now, but
in reality nearer Madison. Turn to the
left, and the first place you come to is
surrounded by a low stone wall. Through
iron gates a graveled roadway leisurely
turns, and passing beneath huge ever
green's reaches a yellow and white frame
house, with a veranda in front and a
tower at the farther end. Opposite the
doorway, beneath the great trees. is a
rustic seat and a rustic table.
Between two of the trees is swung
a hammock, and in pleasant weather
Frank r. Stockton lies in the hammock
debating his fanciful tales to his wife,
who sits on the rustic settee. It is an
ideal home for an author, situated upon
an eminence commanding miles of coun-
try, removed from the main road and
surrounded bya grove.-Newark Adver-
tiser,

EARTHQUAKE Phenomena.

The wild, unframed earthquake is a
terrible thing to encounter. The 'quak-
ing" the rending of the earth's surface
and the other incidental accomplishments
usually described are only a 1.-THE of the
real terrors of a seismic shock. To some
the noise which precedes the real shock
is more terror inspiring than the
quake" itself. Father Kircher describes
these sub%verranean rumblings as "a hor-
rid sound resembling that of an infinite
number of chariots driven fercely for
ward, mingled with the noise of crack
ing whips, neighing of horses and the
cries of victory and despair on the part
of the charioteers."
The sounds which preceded the great
Lisbon earthquake are said to have re-
sembled 'the rumbling of empty omni-
buses, chariots and barrels, the noise in
creasing in volume until it equaled the
roar of a thousand cannons." Another
popularity is the gyratory motion that
is frequently impaired to sections of
earth of greater or lesser area. At Co
lares in 1866 several stone houses in the
lower quarters of the city We're turned
completely around, this, too, without
rendering them uninhabitable.-St.
Louis Republic.

Interesting People.

what makes a person interesting"
1t cannot be intellectual brilliancy, for
we have all known men whose minds
were stored withthe best thought of the
world, yet wholly failed to interest us;
women whose brains were developed
by the widest culture, yet were unable
to appear other than dry as dust cata-
logues of knowledge. Thinl, of the peo-
pie who interest you and study their
qualities, and how few you find possess
ing just the same traits.
1t is all a matter of magnetic soul cur
rents possibly. Why not? We can
hardly dispute that some human bodies
convey electricity much more readily
than others. In almost any gathering
of a dozen persons at least one will be
found who possesses this strange power,
the touch of whose hand can u a
sensation like that of touching an cleo
trio battery.
Is there anything impossible in the
theory that souls have their electric cur-
rents, which pass more or less freely to
and fro according to the individual pow
er as conductor? Then we have but to
assume that the person who interests US
is one whose soul current mingles freely
with u own. This is perhaps q more
satisfactory explanation than the more
commonly received one of animal mag
netism, a quality on a lower plane and
infinitely less subtle in character .-Bos-
ton Advertiser.

His Plaintive Plea.

He had loved her very tenderly and
for a long time, but she had scorned
him. He was no worm either, for he
would have turned when trod upon, but
she rocked not this. It was enough for
her that she did not care for him. This
is usually enough for any woman; also
for any man when the boot is on the
other foot, for of such is the kingdom
of Cupid.
His condition had at last become I'M
bearable to him, and he resolved to win
all or lose all. 1t was late one evening
when the fateful moment came.
"Will you marry me% he asked her
in pain, untrimmed English, for he could
trust himself to nothing in the orna-
mental line.
She spurned him s~cornfully.
"No!" she replied, with sarcastic, hate
full, cruel emphasis, "Now
The word pierced the heart in his bos-
ON. His lips quivered, and at first he
could not speak.
"Have you no mor to say" he asked
at last plaintively.
mo, sir" she replied. "What more
could I say?"
Again he shrank at the cruel thrust.
81 didn't know" he murmured tremu-
lousy, "but I think you might have said
No, I thank you"
Then he fled away SO weary with dis
@asters, trigged with fortune, that he
would set his life on any chance to mend
it OF be rid of it.-Detroit Free Press.

Legerdemain That Failed to Work.

The bright young man-who isn't 50
very young either-wasfortunate enough
to secure a seat right in the midst Of
Deacon Huggum's young ladies' Bible
class and by their arch manners was SO
far decoyed from his usual staid indiffer-
ence as to try and make himself agreea-
Bile.
The speaker of the evening pleaded
most earnestly the cause of sweet chart
ty and made the last remaining quarter
and nickel burn in the scribe's pocket.
When the deadly contribution box be-
gan its gyrations in his isle, the news
paper representative began to chuckle
under the mellowing influence Of a hap
py thought. He would execute a neat
little piece Of legerdemain with that
quarter and 5 cent piece, and whilo
properly impressing his fair neighbors
with the larger coin would really drop
in the smaller.
He held the quarter daintily between
his thumb and finger and pressed the
Scent piece between his third finger and
his palm. There was a click of a coin
in the bottom of the box, a rather I'M
usual twist of a large cuff and a bland
smile on the reporters face.
A second later the young man started
as if he had been shot and turned ex-
citedly toward the deacon, who was now
| two seats behind him.
He had dropped in the quarter!
The deacon mistook the gesture as a
sign that the young man had been over
looked, and again he thrust the box I'M
der the reporters nose.
What did be do?
Just what GU would.
He put in the nickel.
And walked home.-Boston Herald.

The dwarf palm, which furnishes con-
siderable quantities Of fiber, grows in
great profusion in Algeria and is one Of
the principal obstacles to the clearing of
the land, so thickly does it grow and so
difficult to pull up. Its roots, in shape
resembling carrots, penetrate into the
ground to the depth of a yard or more,
and when its stem only is cut it sprouts
out again almost Immediately. AS its
name indicates, this palm is very small,
and can only attain a certain height
when protected, as in the Arab GENE
t@eries, for ex~ample.-Monde Econom-

Tragedy of Literary Disappointment.

An English periodical says disappoint-
ment in authorship over there sometimes
has tragic results. Recently a gentle
man committed suicide because he had
had al article rejected, and a confec-
toners assistant shot himself because,
though he had written several books,
they were all rejected. The article goes
on sagely: yet he went on writing to
the last, unable to see that he was pro-
ducing what was not wanted. Nova
days there is a market for what is good
in any class of literature, and the writer
who cannot secure a publisher may rest
assured either that he is not ready for a
public appearance, or that he has been
denied the gifts with which he fancies
himself to be endowed"

rhe Conductor. Large ACQUAINTANCE.

when I was out in Chicago at the
opening of the Worlds fair" said a
friend Of mine, II had occasion to make
a call or some old acquaintance on the
West Side. The streets in that portion
of the city had many of them the bep-
tismal names of women, and AS | lived
there at one time the calling Of them by
the car conductor sounded familiar to
me, although it seemed to puzzle an old
countryman on board, who was doubt
less visiting Chicago for the first time.
There were a number of ladies among
the passengers, and US the conductor
called out Elizabeth the car stopped,
and one of them got off. A few squares
farther and there was the call Ada,
followed by a stop and the exit Of an
other lady.
1.-THE old c%ountryman began to look
interested, and when the next call came,
May and he saw u lady gather up her
bundles and walk down the aisle, he had
q puzzed air. In quick succession there
came Pauline Roberta and Augusta
followed by the departure of a passen-
ger. The old man could not stand it
any longer. His eyes bulged out, and
making q rush for the platform he said
in a stage whisper to the conductor.
Great snakes, mister, do you know the
names of all the women folks in this big
town.
"He had been under the impression
that each woman who left the car an
swered to the name that was called out"

about my heart, and 1 was afraid to draw a
full breath. couldn't sweep a room with
God, by the help of New Heart Cure all that
is past and I feel like another woman. Be
fore using the New Heart Cure I had taken
different so-called remedies and been treated
by doctors without any benefit until 1 was
both discouraged and disguised. My husband

copies of the Lick negatives of the moon,
has discovered in M of the Lick pho
tographs a crater which is not to be
found on Schmidt's map. This object,
which is estimatedto be about a quarter
of a mile in diameter, is of sufficient size
to have been seen by Schmidt, and it is

Forewarned of Her Child's Death.

A few months after my fathers death
the infant son. who had been pining him
self i'll for papa" was lying n night
in his mothers arms. On the next
morning she said to her sister, "Alf is
going to die" The child had no definite
disease, but was wasting away, and it
was argued to her that the returning
spring would restore the health lost dur
ing the winter. No" was her answer.
"He was lying asleep in my arms last
night, and William Cher husband) came
to me and said that he wanted Alf with
him, but that l might keep the other
two" In vain she was assured that she
had been dreaming; that it was quite
natural that she should dream about her
husband, and that her anxiety for the
child had given the dream its shape.
Nothing would persuade her that she
had not seen her husband or that the in
formation he had given her was not true.

when in the following March her arms
were empty and a waxen form lay life
