Orr FOR DANCING SCHOOL.

tThose words can ho sung TO the Elizabethar
air, "To all you ladies now on land" etc.l
We started of for dancing school.
My sisters twain and !.
The night WAS lovely, clear and cool:
The moon was I'm tho sky.
/ woro gown OF sarcrnct blue,
And Madgo and Kitty had them, too,
For TO trip and to skip
And to skip and to trip
And be merry all tho glad time through.
The girls were prankcd gay and bright
As poacocks in their pride.
The parsons Rose was all in white,
Most like nm April bride;
Qor sister Nell in gown of green
Good lsckl She thought herself II quoen-
For TO trip and to skip
And to skip and to trip
And DO merry all the glad time through.
The lads in corner huddlod close,
Just like n flock of sheep.
Beneath their lids at Nvll and Rose
They scarcely dared to peep.
But yet, "HOw fair SO Ger they be"
Mothought, "thcrc's ono will como for me,
For to trip and to skip
And TO skip and 10 trip
And be merry nll tho glad time through"
Tho master tapped his fiddle bow
And babe US rise to dance.
The girls stood pcrEirg in n row,
All waiting for the chance.
And up comes Ned with beck and bow
And says, "win DO my partner now
For TO trip and to skip
And to skip and to trip
And bo merry all tho glad time throughr'
dropped my curtsy wide and deep
And gave 10 Ned my hand.
Pit, pat, my feet tho time did keep
Tho while we took our stand.
Then ting, tang, Ia, the notes did play,
And Ned and / set quick away
For 10 trip and to skip
And TO skip and to trip
And be merry all the glad time through.
Now, hop, hop, hop, We all did 20;
A slide and then bounce,
And Rose flow by, a wreath of snow,
And Nell did nuunt and fOunCC.
"But best, cried Nod, 81 like the blue.
And, oh, there's none of them all like you
For to trip and to skip
And to skip ind to trip
And bc merry all the glad time through"

rible night before us. The rain has
already begun. You may hear it on
! the pond. Will you not go to the
hall for some rest and refreshmentp"
II thank YOU" said tho man, re-
plying in almost the words he had
used to the lsborer. II have all l
need. " And again his eyes seemed
to gaze into the darkness beyond the
stile.
There was the sound of u rumble
of wheels on the road, and two lights
shono out through the dimnoss. The
lights frightened; the sound cleared !;
n brougham and pair drew up at the
turning.
My carriage meets me here, ="
said the squire, and l am some
what pressed for time. But you
have laid mo under deep obliga-
ton. Is there no way in which l
can serve your"
There is one" said tho man. ~
should like to shake you by the
hand"
The squire hesitated. 1t was only
momentary. But flush rose to the
hollow cheek of the stranger. 1T is
my hands, he said. II will wash
them in the pond. y
But the squire had drawn off his
sealskin glove, and no held out his
soft, white palm. The other olutohed
it in his bony hand, and for mo-
mont the eyes of the two men met
in the light of tho lamp. The squire
started and released his grasp.
There was q look in his face that
held something of fear. When he
entered his brougham, the look re-
manned still on his face.
And the man sat again on the
stile. In the darkness the lights from
tho hall shone brightly, and he gazed
at them. Then he turned his eyes to
the trees that were dim round the
pond and again from the pond to tho
lights. Was there happiness at the
lights? Was there peace in thepondY
So the man crossed the stile. In the
hush before the storm there was
great cry. 1t was a cry of despair,
yet cry of hope, of joy.
The squire heard it and stopped
his brougham. The laboror heard it
as he entered his cottage and lin
gered at the door till his wife called
out for the draft. The children
at the hall heard it as they sat at tea
and dropped their spoons askance,
listening to hear it again. But the
trees at the pond bent closely, the
circles melted away, and tho storm
burst, Louis Post-Dispatoh.

When the Earth Was Top Shaped.

After people dropped the old fash
toned idea that the earth was as flat
as a pancake" they did not immedi-
ately grasp the globe of spherical
idea as it is applied to worlds. The
people of the time of Columbus be-
lieved that the earth was body
shaped like top or cone, the sur
face rising from the north to the
south. There arc several letters
written by Columbus and still in ex-
istence which go to prove that such
was his conception of tho shape of
the earth. The top shaped idea of
the earth seems to have originated
with one John Blauvis about 1470
and to have i:nmcdiatrly become
very popul"r.-St. Louis Republic.

AN ARCHITECTURAL WIZARD.
The Emperor Constantine and His Won
derful Transformation of Byznntiuin.

The Emperor Constantine and His Won-
derful Transformation of Byznntiuin.
Constantine created his new Rome
in $50 as never ruler before or since
created city. 1t WAS made a mighty
and Respondent capital within IA sin
gle decade. Italy, Greece, Asia
Minor, Syria, Egypt and Mauritania
were despoiled of their treasures to
adorn the new metropolis. Con-
stantine built churches, theaters,
forums, baths, portiooes, palaces,
monuments and aqueducts. He
built, adorned and peopled a great
capital all at stroke and made it,
after Rome and Athens, the most
splendid city of the ancient world.
Two centuries later Justinian be-
came the second founder of the city.
And from Constantine down to the
capture by the crusaders, for nearly
nine centuries, u succession of em-
perors continued to raise great sa-
cred and lay buildings. Of the city
before Constantine little remains
above the ground except some sculp-
lures in the museum and foundations
of some walls, which DR.. Paspates
believes that he can trace. Of Con-
stantine and his immediate success
sors there remain parts of the hippo
drome, of walls, aqueducts, cisterns
and forums and some columns and
monuments.
Of the emperors from Theodosius
to the crusades we still have, little
injured, the grand Church Of Sophia,
some 20 churches much altered and
mostly late in date, the foundations
of palaces and one still standing in
ruins, and, lastly, the ID miles of
walls with their gates and towers.
The museums contain sarcophagi,
statues, inscriptions of the Roman
age. But we can hardly doubt that
an immense body of Byzantine relics
and buildings still lie buried some
10 or 30 feet below the ground
