Distant Things.

Oh, white is the sail in the faraway,
And dirty the sail at the dock,
And fair are the cliffs across the bay,
And black Is the nearby rock!
Though glitters the snow on the peaks afaF,
At our feet it il only white,
And bright is the CLEAN Of the distant star,
Though lamp were twice as bright!
The rose that mods beyond our reach
Is redder than rose of ours.
OF thought that turns our tongue to speech
Our fellows leave greater bowers.
The waters that flow from the hidden springs
Are swccter than those by our side,
So we strive through life for the distant things
And never are satisfied!
-Elwyn Irving Hoffman.

A WOUNDED AMAZON.

Standing apart in dumb, deep agony,
With none of all her warning sisters near.
With none to help her or console her here.
She pays the price of those who would be free.
Hast thou, who in thy proud virgnity,
A maid to cope with heroes didst not fear,
Found that such glory might be bought too
dear
When one, who should have shielded, wounded
thee?
Yet, gazing on thee where thou standest now,
He whom no amazonian arms could quell
Before thine unarmed womanhood would bow.
Until your lifted eyes should re-engage
The strife of which our latest stories tell
That he and thou forevermore must wage.

The Minstrels of the Marshes.
They're serenading me tonight. Their voices
clear and strong
Rise through the summer atmosphere in JOY
GUS bursts of song.
The sun has set an hour or more, but bright
against the sky
Flash meteors of yellow light as glowworms
wander by,
And through the reeds down by the marsh
they flicker to and fro
And light my merry Ministries with their magic
lamps aglow.
This evening when the sun went down saw a
meadow lark
Creep down into her grassy nest before the
coming dark.
The long, gaunt shadows of the trees stretched
far beyond my sight
And found one last belated quail who whistled
for bobwhite.
The shadows grew and broadened and spread
out on every hand
Until all We're united and the night had reach
ed the land.
And then they tuned their fiddles, and they
gathered their trombones
And took once more their comets, with their
shrill and searching tones,
And hoarse and foggy basso, which first SEEM
cd to start beyond
The deepest depths of deepness shook the wa
ters of the pond,
And with joyous ecstasy that tided i'll for
sleep
The basso roared his bull from" and the tenor
piped knee Deep
The cricket on the doorpost fddled, fddled for
his life;
The chirping, shrieking tree toad played selec-
tions on his fife;
The countless vagrant insects madly Joined
them in the race
And buzzed a soothing second to the big frogs
sobbing bass,
And night bird, passing over, cried sudden
interlude,
And the players played their maddest in a
wondrous merry mood.
The cricket plays the same old tune as when,
boyish guest,
l listened to his playing when his touch was at
it's best.
The tree toad plays as years ago used to hear
him play.
The basso croaks his lower notes in just tho
same old way.
And that is why listen when tho evening
shadows creep
Down there among the lilies where the tenor
pipes "knee Deep

When Duty Calls.
Hard is his lot, indeed, and sad his life.
Who needs must leave his happy home, his wife,
His babes, his friends-all that the heart in
thralls-
And go to Punishment in foreign lands,
Or go to war and stain with blood his hands,
When duty calls.
And he of different mold is wretched, too,
Who has ambitions, longs for something new.
Who Graves adventures, whom no hap APP
pals,
Yet whom each day brings but the wonted
chore,
The weary task at Office, bank or store,
Where duty calls.
Unhappy both! But wretched more-poor
wight
Is he whom fashion and the world polite
Drag out to nightly dinners, routs and balls.
There be his moods and lenses what they may,
There he must smirk and smile, be perk and
gay,
Tattle and talk, and dance the night away,
Nor then is done, for he has still to pay
His duty calls.

MARRIAGE MAXI.HS

Better wait than sever.
It's never too late to wed.
Rule by appearing to submit.
A hungry husband is hard to coax
Let husband loose in fenced
field.
The shor'er the bill the sweeter the
fare.
A husbands wrath spoils the test
broth.
Govern youself, and you will govern
each other.
One kind thought spoken is worth
two unsaid.
A sullen silence works more mis-
chief than a royal row.
The proof of the temper is in the
unexpected guest.
1t isn't every wife that can laugh at
her husbands jokes.
It's cross grained wife that will
scold in new bonnet.
Always remember that you have eye
lids as well as eyes.
1t takes man to talk economy-a
woman to practice it.
Bitter marry a praying sinner than
preaching saint.
If you've picked up crooked ick.
don t tell everyone so.
Man is the head of the house, but
women the reck that turns it.
An ounce of tobacco calms more
trouble waters than ton Of oil
A sensible husband in hand is worth
dozen heroes in Greenland.
If you feel like pair of scissors,
don't choose penknife to live with.

FENCING FOR WOMEN.

Fencing is very inexpensive past
time, and it is quite Independent of the
barometer. Toe indispensable but
simple "kit,' or outfit-foils, masks
and habilimerts- the first outlay,
and the last, when one is out of the
hands of the Instructor; and after that,
the fencer needs nothing but bare
floor, wide enoush h to measure the
weapons. AS Lady Colin Campbell
says, fencing is, perhaps, the only sport
that 'sowes nothing of its absorbing
faclnation to the accident of surround
ings. x * = A strip Of kamptulicon

nifty of as great enjoyment as the most

Again s'What makes fencing so pc
culiar,y appropriate to is the fact
that unusual reng'h is not only un-
necess ary, but is almost a drawback to
proficiency IN this great and serlors
art" The muscles need little get
ting into condition at the outset, for
fencing is an exercise that taxes the
whole frame in the who!esomest and
most enjoyable manner; but an occasion

Lightness and agility of movement, {
nice balluce Il supple wrists a hanl of
exquisi de.icacy-these are the phys
cal gifts that go to the making of the
fine fencer, and they are gifts witt

A SPRING SONG.
WILLIAM STRU THEIRS,

A solar Iaan for the eyes,
Chanted in tins so dazzling bright,
The golden glory of the light
Floods all these early spring'ime skies.
Through boughs of maple, spruce and larcl,
Through beech and oak, the winds descart
With notes Of joy, the dying rant
And angry shout of Viking March.
While, issuing from frost and dearth,
More wondrous than the pGonix change,
This tlossomtide flows, swift and strange
How young you glow, dear Mother Earth.
So long had Doubt, on dismal wing,
lowered round hearts in wintry chill,
Scarce quelled by any force of will
That would, despite it, strive to sins.
But now the fragrant, living air
Breathts cen in shadow, covertly,
The truth of Immortality,
The sudden doom of Giant Despair.
Behold his castles baleful halls
Loom dreamlike through the bloomy haz',
Then sink mid whirr of glad blue lays
Whose wings conceal the crumbling WALL
And listen! In his dungeon grim,
Where poison mould the pavement STAINS,
His prisoners strike off their chains

AYLSW0RTH'S WILL.
1t Contains Only One Public Bequest
-Annuities to Relatives.

The Will OF Judge Eli Aylsworth was
filed today in the Municipal Court. 1t is
lengthy document and drawn with a
care characteristic of the deceased.
There Is but one public bequest, and
that Is of s100 to the town of Foster for re-
pairs on Christian church ut Foster Center.
Other than that there are no direct bs-
quests. The Judge has stated in his will
that he wished to leave his property in
such q way as to insure his children
and Crane children against want unless il
should be the res ult of their own folly.
Then follows long list of annuities vary
ing from s22 to 1890, to bo paid out of
the interest on the property.
Hiram b. AyIesworih, the eldest son of
the deceased, and his grandson, Harry c.
Aylsworth, are not mentioned among the
benefciaries.
The executors are Gilbert A. Phillips,
George A. yepherson and William G.
Angel.
The will gives to his wife, Eliza s., and
his daughter, Eliza A., the exclusive right
of occupancy of his Broad street house.
In case any descendant mentioned
marries, gift of $50 is to be presented
out OF the surplus rents.
The will is dated Jan. 10, 1892 and a
number of codicils cutting down bequests
were added Oct. IL, 1893.
