The Old Story.

A number Of members who were
down here to visit the University
and Asylum expressed tho "fear" that
the legislature would not be able TO
finish up its business within the forty
days prescribed by the act OF the last
session. OF course it won't, and We
are looking every day for the intro
duction OF bill repeating the law and
extending the time to the constitu-
tional limit of sixty days. 1t would
have been the same il the constitu-
tional limit was eighty or n hundred
days. The legislature would remain
in session until the last hour of the
last day of either periods, and then
there would be as much unfinished
business as though the limit had been
forty or even thirty days. All calcu-
lations are based upon the longest
time allowed and but little if any i'm
portant legislation is ever effected
during the first four or five weeks OF
tn , session. This has been tie his.
tory of all legislatures since the or
gan'zation Of the State, and it will sc
continue until the end of time, OF
until the Senate and Assembly are
composed Of majority of members
whose time is worth more to them

why a Man Joins q Club.

Within few years the craze for clubs
has extended to all classes of society and
both sexes until almost every man and
boy in the community is a member of
some club, and many ladies have their
clubs at which to meet their friends and
talk over the fashions or more serious
matters. When the craze took the peo-
pie they seemed TO think il was some
thing in the way Of enjoyment which
they had overlooked, while business men
found in it a new and quick way Of com
munication with customers and a con-
tinuance Of business through the evening
as well as during the hours Of daylight.
The club served also to the men of bust
ness as a means Of acquaintance with men
whom they might not otherwise meet
without considerable difficulty, and who
might, by rubbing against each other,
serve each others purposes or profit.
1t is a striking fact that in many cases
the names Of our most remarkable clubs
are misnomers, misleading 10 the unini-
tated, and the real objects Of the gather
ing mystery to the members. A man
joins a club for reasons Of his own,
which are enjoyment, seclusion from the
outer world, independence, conviviality
and select acquaintance. He wants
place at which he may meet n friend-he
wants the tone of the club and the priv
ilege of rubbing against whom he re-
CARDS as his superiors in many things,
particularly business and wealth-and
he doesn't care about the objects of the
organization if there be any other than
what he is there for.-New York Times.
Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1893-02-19

There is painful seriousness about
the pleasures of the American aristocrat
that makes her (for it is generally the
woman who rules in these matters) a
most interesting-nay, entertaining
subject for the social philosopher. She
must seek her comrades, for example, not
so much among those whom she likes as
among those whom she must like, and
she must devote herself 10 amusement
with all the ardor of her soul and all the
vigor of her body.
In the countries where an aristocrat is
born, not made, the members Of the 80
lect body have certain public and useful
functions, and the world is interested in
their play because that Is part Of the
public ceremonies, but in this happy re-
public, where all are equal, the people
whose social affairs are chronicled in tho
press are thus talked about simply be-
cause they play and insist upon believ-
ing that the public is quite as much in
terested in their balls as in the graver
affairs of state, and that it is much more
of an honor to wear the tab Of one Of
their coteries than to win a seat in the
national legislature.
They take themselves very seriously,
and they are partly right At all events
they do the rest Of the world very littis
harm, and occasionally, no doubt, have
good time.-Harper's Weekly.

WHY Foam Is White,

The question as TO why all foam is
white is not an easy one TO understand,
but the fact is that foam is always white,
whatever may be the color of the bev-
erage itself. The froth produced ON a
bottle of the blacklist ink is white, and
would be perfectly 50 were it not tinged
TO certain extent by particles Of the
beverage which the bubbles hold in me-
chanical suspension. As to the cause Of
this whiteness, it is sufficient TO say that
it is due TO the large number Of rejecting
surfaces formed by the foam, for it is
these surfaces which, by rejecting the
light, produce upon our eyes the impress
sion Of white.
If we remember that all bodies owe
their colors 10 the rays Of light, which
they cannot absorb, and all bodies which
reflect all the light they receive, without
absorbing any, appear perfectly white,
we shall be prepared 70 understand how
the multitude Of rejecting surfaces
formed by the foam, and which do not
absorb any light, must necessarily give
the froth a white appearance II is for
the same reason that any very fine pow
der appears white, even the blacklist
marble, when ground TO dust, losing
every traced its original color.-Thomas
Warwick in Confectionery Journal.

LIGHT AT EVENTlDE.

On quaint old cupboards and the long used
things
That in the years drift up, glad morning
leaps,
Plays with the kittens on the floor, and finss
Fierce beams into the hooks where night stlll
creeps.
1t falls where Karl and Gretchen, drawn no
less
By love than they were fifty years ago.
In rugged peace and wrinkled comelinesa,
Sit knee 10 Knee In life's soft afterglow.
Gods blessing on the old romantic heartsl
"ris Ruths sweet story she is spelling out
10 Karl, the while in dreams his mind de-
parts
And Ruth is not the maid he dreams about.
He sees love Graded In the soft blue eyes
OF shy maiden, and his own grow dim
As, like a h0ming bird, his fancy flies
Back to the day when Gretchen came to him.
And thence on wistful wings his mem'ry
sweeps
Over the years that seem an unmarked plain,
But where his soul within each furrow sleeps
And ev'ry footmark speaks of Joy or pain.
That cradle-there are many such; the earth
has many little crosses on her breast;
The peasant starves and has his hours Of mirth
On many fields are soldier SONS at rest,
Though Karl may sigh, his gentle sorrow dies
Stillborn upon the threshold Of his cot,
And SO, as hunger 20 sweet food, his eyes
Turn to the little maid who shared his lot
1t is the voiceless love of years that speaks
In one long look as Gretchen feels him lay
A hand on hers, and what his spirit seeks
She gives, though KARL" is all she finds to
say.
