THE DAYS AND THE YEAR.

What is the world, Iny little one?
Our world belongs to that clock, the sun.
Steady & spins: while the clock beats true
Days and seasons for me and you
And tick, tick. took, goes the mighty clock.
While time swings on below,
Now left. now right, now day. now night,
With tick, took To and fro.
The pussy willow in cost of fur,
A sweet pink rose in the wind astir,
A maple leaf with = crimson blush.
Then falling snowflnkes and winters hush.
While tick, tick, took. goes the mighty clock,
And the world swings on below,
Budding. blowing. shining. showing.
With a tick, tool, to and fro.
A little song when the heart is glad,
A little sigh when the way is sad,
Whether the shadows or sunbeams fall,
Sweet rest end dreaming at last for all,
While tick, tick. took GOES the mighty clock
And the world swings on below,
Smiling, signing. singing, crying.
With = tick, tock to and fro.
So is the way, my own little one,
Our world belongs to that clock, the sun,
And the hand that somewhere keeps the key
Is the same that holtleth You and me,
While tick, tick, took goes the mighty clock
And the world swings on below,
Now left, now right. now day, now night.
With tick, took to aud fro.

Napoleou's slight to Plus VII.

In due time the venerable traveller
reached Fontainebleau. As the pope had
come to Paris and the emperor had not
as of old gone to Rome so by another
reversal the prodigal son had this time
come out to meet his spiritual father.
He was in hunting costume, and seemed
by accident to meet the pope's carriage
as it traversed the forest. Against his
loud protestations the successor of st.
Peter alighted with satin shoes and robes
Of state upon the muddy ground. But
the emperor, though prodigal, was not
repentant, for after his first ELUSIVE
greeting little acts Of contemptuous dis
courtesy-such. for example, as himself
taking the seat of honor in the carriage
which they entered together-showed
that this late successor Of Charles the
Great was no second Henry w, who
thought q crown we'll worth a mass, bu,
an Otto or Henry III, determined tC
assert the secular supremacy against any
assumption recalling the pretensions OF

How Wall Paper II Made.

It is very interesting to go through
wall paper factory and follow the proc
esses Of manufacture. The designs are
the first things observed. Formerly
there was scarcity of these, but now
there is a flood, and q manufacturer
must exercise much artistic taste and
business ability in making selections.
One was submitted to New England
manufacturer recently by q woman,
who stated that it was dictated by spir-
its. The least that can be said of it is
that it was not desirable.
Various designers have different spe-
cialties-some flowers, others architec-
tural ideas, etc.-and of recent years
architects have devoted many of their
spare moments to originating wall pa
per designs.
A complete design consists of three
pieces-side wall, border and ceiling.
The general width of patterns of the
side wall and ceiling, as used in the
trade and manufactured by American
machinery, is IS inches, and, the length
of the repeat in the pattern is either
113 or l434 or l13. inches, as suggested
by the character Of the design, the shorter
repeats being the most satisfactory to the
trade in general.
Many of the best effects are produced
in papers containing only four to six
colors, but as many as 20 or % are
sometimes used. Each color and shade
in q design means "a separate roller to
the manufacturer -Philadelphia Times.

A Travelled Check.

A merchant at Ionia, Mich, paid q
debt due a Detroit merchant with a
check on the First National bank of To-
mia. The Detroit merchant deposited the
check in his Detroit bank, which hap
pened to have no Ionia correspondent
The Detroit bank sent it to its Chicago
correspondent. Why? Probably because
their Chicago balance was low and they
would collect it at par. The Chicago
bank sent it to a Muskegon bank, its
nearest correspondent to Ionia. The
Muskegon bank sent it to its Grand
Rapids correspondent. The Grand Rap
ids bank had no Ionia correspondent, but
saw that its Detroit correspondent was
the correspondent Of the First National
bank Of Ionia, ON which the check was
drawn, SO it sent it again to Detroit.
The Detroit bank then forwarded it to
Ionia, its destination for payment. ]
find this check passed through six banks,
being in transit / days and travelled
$3.50 miles. Taking into consideration
the postage paid IL times by the differ
ent banks, the stationery used and the
time occupied by clerks in doing the
business, it would seem that if a short
cut for the collection of checks can be
