THE BLESSED DAMOZEL.
BY DANTE GABRIEL RosETTI.

The blessed damozel leaned out
From the gold bar of heaven;
Her eyes were deeper than the depth
Of waters stilled at even;
b had three lilies in her hand,
And the stars in her hair were seven.
Her robe, ungirt from clasp to hem,
No wrought flowers did adorn,
But a white rose of Mary's gift,
For service meetly worn;
Her hair that lay along her back
Was yellow 1 k ripe corn.
Her seemed she scarce had been a day
One of Gods choristers;
The wonder was not yet quite gone
From that still look of hers;
Albeit, to them she left, her day
Had counted as ten years.
Ito one, it is ten years OF years.
.... Yet now and in this place,
Surely she leaned DER me-her hair
Fell all about my face
Nothing; The autumn fall of leaves.
Thu whole year sets apace.)
1t was the rampant of Gods house
That she was standing on;
By God built over the sheer depth
The which is space begun;
So high, that looking downward hence
She scarce could see the sun.
1t lies in heaven, across the flood
OF ether, as a bri dge.
Beneath, the tides of day and night
With flame and darkness ridge
The void, as low as where this earth
Spins like a fretfui nudge.
Around her. lovers. newly met
Mid deathless loves acclaims,
Spoke evermore among themselves
Their heart-remembered names;
And the souls mounting up to God
Went by herlike thin fame.
And still she bowed herself and stopped
Out of the circling charm;
Until her bosom must AVE made
The bar she leaned on warm. l.
And the lilies lay as If asleep
Along her Bonded arm.
From the fixed place in heaven she saw
Time like a pulse shake fierce
Thro' all the worlds. Her gaze still stroye
Within the gulf to pierce
Its path; and now she spoke as when
Ii SUITS SANG III UQ61E SDQ6r6S.
The sun was rome now, the curled moon
Was like a little feather
Fluttering down The gulf; and now
She poke thro' the still weather,
Her voice was like the voice the stars
Hadawhen they sang together.
(Ah sweet! Even now, in that birds song
Strove not her accents there
Fain to be h~arkened2 When those bells

For he will come, . she said.
"Have l not prayed in heaven ION earth,
Lord. Lord, has he not prayed?
Are not two prayers a perfect strength?
And shall l feel afraid?
"When round his head the aureole clings.
And he is clothed in white,
III take his hand and go with him
To thedeep wells of light;
AS unto a stream we will step down.
And battle there in Gods sight.
wv two will stan d beside that shrine,
occult, withheld, untrod,
Whose lamps are s TIRED continually
With prayers sent up to God;
And see our old prayers, granted, melt
Each like q little cloud.

That living mystic tree
Within whose secret growth the Dove
Is sometimes felt to be,
While every leaf that Hjs nlumes touob
Saith His name audibly.

person is forced to shut behind him
under any and all circumstances. Water
cannot pass through it or around the
casing. 1t is the invention of Alex
ander Kircaldy of Glasgow, Scotland,
and he has labored to bring it to its
present state of perfection for ten
years. Primarily, this door is intended
for vessels, for its chief claim to dis
tinction is that it is water-tight. To
the bulkhead, where the door is fitted,
is bolted hollow, cylindrical casing.
In this casing are two doors, but they
are not opposite one another. Within
this hollow casing revolves hollow
cylinder, and there is doorway to
this cylinder. When it is desired to
pass through this novel door the cylin-
der within this casing is turned so
that the door therein is opposite one
of the other doors in the casing.
When the ingress doorway is in line
with the bulkhead doorway the pas
senger enters and stands on the bot
tom of the casing and revolves the
hollow cylinder by hand until he
brings the ingress doorway into line
with the second bulkhead doorway,
which permits of egress from the cas-
ing.
The remarkable feature of this double
door is that it is absolutely i'm
possible to leave it open, as one
door must of necessity be effectually
closed before the other opens. The
revolving cylinder is hung on ball
bearings, and is easily brought into the
position desired for ingress OF egress.
At the same time no gear, which is SO
familiar to other types of water-tight
doors, is required.

A TROUBLESOME HERD.
Story of Slow Train and an Ex-Gov-

Story of Slow Train and an Ex-Gov-
ernors Comment Thereon.
The slow train is indigenous TO all
sections at some stage of their devel-
opement, and has at some period OF
other in the history of every common
wealth invoked of her helpless citizens
that righteous Indignation which,
half-smothered, we term impatience.
Among others relating to this appar-
emily indispensable fixture, they tell
n good story down in East Tennessee
of Ex-Governor Taylor at the expense
OF little short line, commonly known
as the marrow Gauge" running up
the Watuga Valley from Johnson City,
Tenn, to the famous Cranberry mines
of North Carolina.
The road having been built almost
exclusively for the transportation of
timber, mineral and building stone,
instituted instead of regular passen-
ger service what is familiarly known
as the "mixed train" or ''jerk-water,
about one-third passenger and two
thirds freight The time made by
such trains is necessarily limited or,
speaking rather in railroad parlance,
not limited, and in consequence the
many tourists who some years ago be-
gan to frequent the springs and other
such resorts along the line indulged,
without reserve, in many quaint and
cutting witticism as they logged along.
Setting out one morning with
number of nervous and impatient pas
sengers aboard, among them "Our
Bob, as the sturdy sons of the noun
tains in their pride delighted to call
him, they had not proceeded far when
herd of cattle was discovered on the
track short distance ahead, The
whistle was blown wildly for few
moments, but the train being some
time in nearing them, they fled with
ont giving any serious trouble.
This little diversion from the mon
otonous routine of stops and starts
gave the fretful passengers topic for
their pungent utterances and sarcastic
filings for few minutes, but the nov
city soon died out and they all, one
by one, lapsed into state of medita-
tive silence. Continuing this for few
miles (for several hours at least), they
were suddenly aroused by another
similar series of wild, frantic shrieks
from the engine, giving emphatic and
effective warning to another trespass-
ing herd.
The Ex-Governor, who had hitherto
been saying but little, now grasped the
humor of the situation, and, with a

confidence he had shown her; and
then she spoke to him of his family
and himself and other things they had
only dared to vaguely hint at in the
past
They sat long together, talking as
old friends do, openly, intimately,
without restraint. There was a new
sense of rest in both their hearts now I;
a vague thing that people recognize
and call happiness when it has become

read by Professor Mendelssohn, of the
Berlin university, at II meeting of the
Medical society in Berlin. The paper
is just beginning to attract wide at.
tention in Germany, although it was
delivered as far back as January, 1896.
The author condemns all excess in
riding as harmful or absolutely dan.
gerous. Besides the danger from ac-
cidents, inflammation of the knee
joint, inflammation resulting from
pressure of the saddle, ETC., DIR. Men
delssohn points out other dangers.
Constant excessive exertion produces
an increased atomic and molecular
change throughout the body to such a
degree as to weaken the individual
and cause special susceptibility to
infectious diseases. The tendency to
catch cold is great, and the heart is
subject to the greatest danger in cases
of excessive riding. He says that
wheeling should be prohibited Q)
where there are existing heart LESSONS,
(2) arterial calcifcation, (3) albumin,
uria, (4) old age, and (5) childhood.
Bicycling is beneficial, he contends, in
the following cases: (l) When ex-
cessive uric acid and gout exist, (2) in
certain mild forms of chronic disturb
ances in the respiratory organs, ex-
cept absolute lung dilation. The Con-
sui calls attention TO the fact that the
remarks do not include important
points relating to the advisability Of
bicycling by boys and girls and women
OF certain temperament, but OBJ

the conclusions as stated by DR.. Men,

Hostile legislation is named as the
