pead1x Prussic Acid.

Prussic acid is composed of such things
as animal refnse and blood solids, with
large quantities of oil of vitrol. Even
the smell of the acid produces pain in
the throat and in the region of the heart,
and there are few poisons for which there
is such little opportunity for an antidote.
If there is time, and there seldom is, for
the poison is almost instantaneous in its
action, ammonia inhaled very freely may
give relief and reduce the absolute GER
tainty of death to o grave probability

Power of Short Words.

Power of Short Words.
Think not that strength lies in the big round
word,
Or that the brief and plain must needs be
weak.
To whom can this be true who once has heard
The cry for help, the tongue that all men
speak
When want or woe or fear is in the throat,
SO that each word gasped out is like shrek
Pressed from the sore heart or strange, wild
note
Sung by some fay or fiend2 There is a
strength
Which dies II stretched too far or spun too
fine,
Which has more height than breadth, more
depth than length.
Let but this force of thought and speech be
mine,
And he that will may take the sleek, fat
phrase
Which glows and burns not, though IT CLEAN
and shine
Light, but not heat-a flash, hut not a blazel
Nor lie it mere strength that the short word
boasts;
1t serves of more than fight or storm to tell,
The roar of waves that clash on rockbound
coasts,
The crash of tain trees when the wild winds
swell,
The roar Of guns, the groans of men that die
On blood stained fields. 1t has voice as
well
For them that far Off on their sick beds lie,
For them that weep, for them that mourn
the dead,
For them that laugh and dance and clap the
hand;
To joys quick step, as well as grief's slow
tread.
The sweet, plain words we learnt at first keep
time
And though the theme be sad or gay or
grand,
With each, with all, these may be made to
chime,
In thought or speech or song, in prose or
rhyme.
-Joseph Addison Alexander.

The Saddest Part.


When little Bess was but child,
She came to me ono day
Aud laid her head upon my cheek
In her sweet baby way.
Papa" she said, II want doll"
What could her papa do?
With heart quite full of parent love
straightway bought her two.
The years sped on. The crown of youth
Lay on her maiden brow.
Again she came unto me and said,
II want pony now"
The pony came. How glad was
To see her happy face!
And on my wrinkled heart there lay
No blighting sorrows trace.
Alas! how easy it's to give
Our treasures of the heart
To those we love, but, oh. how hard
1t is from them to part.
For yesterday she came again,
Just as child Of three,
And blushing said, Hes there down
stairs,
Papa, and he wants me-"

Praise.

Praise.
Though praise is verv sweet to hear
And human hearts are prone to love it,
Yet, If unmerited, l fear
IT'S scarce thing for sense to covet.
The friend who, Drawing all my wrath,
Holds yp mirror to my vision
And shows me my Ill chosen path
Will never lead to fields Elysan;
Who marks my blunders, probes my faults,
While | with shame am inly quaking,
Though my affection for him halts
He is my friend and no mistaking.
But he who ever smiling comes
With honeyed words and flattering glances,
Whose every praise all dissent shuns
And chimes with all my vagrant fancies--
He fans, tits true, my self esteem
And gives free reign to dreams conceited,
And in his presence it would seem
That friendships mission Is completed;
And yet cannot make it so,
Howe'er | strive with logic clever,
For in my Utmost heart know
He is my enemy forever.

der Mr.. Biaine's management did vigor-
Gus service for that expiring cause In
1887, just after the first convention of the
Republican party, he disposed of his in
terest i'll the Journal and assumed edi-
torial charge of Portland, (Me) Adver-
tiser.
Almost from the day of his assuming
editorial charge of the Kennebec Journal,
ut the early age of twcnty-threc, Mr.
Blaine spranB into Il position of great in
fuence i'll the politics and policy of
Maine. At twenty-five he was IL leading
power i'll the councils of the Republican
party, SO recognized by Fessenden, Ham
lin and the two Morrills, and others then
and still prominent in the State. Before
he WAS twenty-nine he was chosen chair
man of the Executive Committee of the
Republican organization in Maine a
position he has held ever since, and from
which he has practically shaped and di-
rected every political campaign in the
State, always leading his party 80 bril-
liant victory
In 1850 he was elected to Congress.
An attempt to pursue his course step by
step during the long term OF his service in
Congress would be wcarisome. He spoke
upon every important measure, and
briefly discussed many petty j ~ about
which none but scdulous reaAcrs of the
Congressional Record Will ever be per-
fectly informed.
Mr. Blaine had served six years in Con
gress and WAS still young man, having
only reached the age of thirty-nine, when
he was chosen Speaker of the House by u
highly complimentary vote, the ballot
standing 81 for Mr.. Michael C.. Kerr, of
Ipdiana. md l3J for Mr. Blaine.
Nothing that could be said of his
public career would meet with reader as
sent from both his enemies and his friends
han the statement that he was one of
The best equipped men for the position
who have occupied the Speakers chair.
This, in the long space during which he
presided over the deliberations of the
House WAS not denied on any hand, and
even his Democratic opponents yielded
their admiration to his discharge of the
difficult duties of presiding officer. His
least reasonable detractors have always
admitted his eminent fitness for the post,

acteristic Ienacity.
Tho sturdy friends who three times
urged Mr.. Blaine's nomination were
among the most Jealous and persistent
that sustained any public man i'll the
history OF American politics twice re
pulsed, they chung to their candidate
with remarkable tenacity.
On June ~, 1876, just before the meet
Ing of the first convention at which his
name was proposed, Mr.. Blaine exper-
fenced II sunstroke in Washington which
caused alarm ut Cincinnati, and. indeed,
Tor II time seemed serious matter
At Cincinnati the reports of his con-
dition were greatly exaggerated 1t was
telegraphed that he had been stricken with
apopexy, and the statement stirred such
of the delegates in his interest as had ar
rived in the city with grave fears Tho
midnight bulletin indicating that thu
danger was passed caused great relief.

MS conversational powers were ncces-
sarily, from what has been said, of IL high
order. His fund of information, while
not rs thorough or as accurate as he no
doubt would have liked, owing to his lack
OF early advantages, was most extensive
and there were few subjects OH which he
could not converse cntertainingly Asa
man of business, he was remarkably sue
ccssful and his Judgment respecting in
VeStments was almost infalliblc. This
capacity in this direction gave great
weight TO many of his ideas and sugges-
tions respecting the commercial policy Of
the country.
MIR. Blainc's position was unique. BY
his friends and admirers he was esteemed
man of stern integrity, statesman of
far-seeing, prophetic vision, an orator of
matchless eloquence, leader without
fear and without rcproach. His enemies,
and he had many, both political and per-
sonal, called him crafty, INSCRIPTIONS
and corrupt in money matters, II scheming
politician with no elements of greatness,
an orator who dealt in words and phrases
only, IL leader who was for himself first
and always. 1t is probable that he was
by no means without fnults and certain
that he had many qualities of greatness ;
in other words that the truth lies some
where between the lavish enconiums of his
friends and the bitter characterization of
his enemies. One who knew him we'll
said in 1884:
Mr.. Blaine with those who know him
Is the most popular of men. The charm
of his manner is beyond expression, and
nobody comes within the circle of his

Brownsville proper the visitor is still
shown the residence of his grandfather,
colonel Blaine, wooden building to
which brick addition has been made in
later years. The mother of General
Sherman's wife happens to have been
born at little distance from Colonel
Blaine's home. On the hills above West
Brownsville the curious inquirer may also
see the house in which Ephraim Blaine
ana Miss Gillespie were married, and,
finally, the half-dozen houses which
quarrel for precedence as the birthplace
or this sketch's subject. Mr.. Blaine has
himself disposed of this interesting con-
test by fixing upon n certain dwelling
among these rs the scene of his earliest
recollections. The building is of wood,
two stories in height, and removed, in nc
cordance with the inscrutable Pennsyl-
vania custom, as little as possible from
the road.
Ephraim Blaine was careful to give all
MS children an excellent education, and
when james had completed at home his
early studies in the elementary principles,
he was sent to the home Of Il relative at
Lancaster, Ohio. This relative was Thomas
Ewing, then Secretary of the Treas
ury James Blaine was eleven when he
went to Lancaster, and he began at once
to prepare himself for college, studying
with his cousin, Thomas Ewing, Junior,
now General Thomas Ewing, and once
member Of Congress. The boys studied
under especially advantageous conditions.
