Fast he held her hand in his'n,
In a sort of love-locke@prison,
While he told the burning story of the love
That rent his breast.
And the maiden sat and listened,
While her eyes with triumph glistened,
AS his all-consuming passion he in trem-
bling tones confessed.
But she tenderly repu.sed him,
How her words with pain convulsed
him,
But he'd often heard that fainting heart
ne'er won fair lady yet.
And with eyes upon that beacon,
Hoping that she yet might weaken,
Every point of her objection he with val
liant vigor met.
Yet the maid was unrelenting,
Gave no token Of repenting,
Though the burning words he uttered
seemed to almost SINCE her ears!
To his every plea emphatic
She would shake her curl-topped attic,
And his feelings overcame him till he al
most burst in tears;
Then a thrill of hope ran through him
AS a happy thought came to him.
And the bells of joy within him rang a wild
and merry peal
As she fell upon his bosom,
Rugged him as in fear she'd lose him
He had promised that his bridal gift would
be a chainless wheel.

ARTIFICIAL OYSTERS.
They Are Sold I'm Large Quantities in
European Cities.

European Cities.
A gentleman who has just returned
from Paris says that the most wonder
full thing he saw while in that city was
artificial oysters. Not mock oysters
meat done up in patty-but bivalve
to be served raw. In looks they appear
to be genuine American oysters, but
where one is eaten the difference is at
once perceptible. The usual price paid
for them is three cents each, or 80 cents
per dozen. At cheap restaurants they
may be procured for two cents each,
but are apt not to be fresh at that
price. When brought on the half shell
they look as nice as any oyster, and one
who is not judge of oysters would eat
them without question. The only gen.
uine thing about them is the shells.
The manufacturers buy secondhand
shells at a small cost and fasten the
spurious oysters in place with paste.
Only half shell is used In that shape
they are packed in tiers and displayed
in windows. Others to be served With
out shells are put up in jars of 25 to
100. The limitations are consumed in
such quantities that dealers urge keep
crs of hotels and restaurants to destroy
their shells and even pay cooks and
walters literally to pound them in
pieces.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

The WeaVer.

Beside the loom OF life stand
And watch the busy shuttle go;
The threads hold within my hand
Make up the filling; strand on strand
They slip my fingers through, and so
This web of mine fills out apace,
While stand ever in my place.
One time the wool is smooth and fine
And colored with sunny dye;
Again the threads so roughly Irvine
And weave so darkly line on line
My heart misgives me. Then would I
Fain lose this web-begin anew
But that, alas! cannot do.
Some day the web will all be done,
The shuttle quiet in its place,
From out my hold the threads be run;
And friends, at setting of the sun,
VIII come to look upon my face,
And say: Mistakes she made not few,
,Yet wove, perchance, as best she knew

Lately the secret of some of their COM
positions of alloy has been revealed.
Sinchu, the finest japanese brass, con-
sists of ten parts of copper and five Of

Evening Prayers.
A precocious small boy left at home
by his mother was taken in hand by his
father, who proposed with real mascu-
line tact TO make a man of him" dur
ing her absence.
After experimenting in various ways
with but little result he tried to slim
ulate originality and independence of
form in prayer The child recited the
Lords Prayer and Now lay me, after
which he sprang up to be kissed and
blessed. His father ignored such ex-
pectations, and said: "Now that your
mother is away, my son. it is a good
time to show your independence of
thought in prayer. Ifthere is any bene-
fit you desire, for yourself or others, ask
God for it. He will hear you, and if it
is best for you He will send it,"
The child wrinkled his brow and bi,
his lip. Then, slowly sinking to his
knees, he cried out fervently:

The fresh air excursion arranged for the present week is for the benefit of the little children of the county home on Shelton avenue in this city. There are now about 175 children under it's sheltering care, though many of them are boarded at present in families in the country. Those who are cared for at the New Haven home will be given their usual annual excursion to Savin Rock for an all days outing under the direction of the superintendent of the home, Mr Willard Mathews, and his assistants.
 Rev. MT. Mossman, who has charge of the city mission fresh air work, has secured from MT. Israel A. Kelsey, gen. eral manager of the Winchester Ave nue Railroad company, the free use of one or two cars, as may be needed for this purpose. The cars will be run up on the Winchester avenue branch to Bassett street, not far from the home and take the children and all their pie nic packages to and from the Rock without change of cars. This is one of the most enjoyable of the fresh air excursions, as everyone at the Rock seems desirous to give these little peo- pie of the poor the full and free use of everything there.

 Mrs. John Stock.
 During the eight months that station A has been established about twelve hundred money orders have been is- sued, and something like $1,SO0 has been transmitted through the same. About fifty money orders a month are cashed at the station, the average paid being about $175 per month, although the amount has reached as high as $500. There have been many inquiries at the office as to why all the New Haven money orders cannot be cashed at the station. Only orders drawn on station A can be paid there, for when the ad- vice accompanying the order Is receiv- ed at the New Haven office the money order must be taken there for compar- ison. Stamps of an average amount of SIS are sold per day It is estimated that on an average 5,600 pieces of mail matter are delivered per day, o~ 800 pieces for each carrier. The outgoing mail, when business is at it's best, aver ages nearly 1000 pieces per day. One firm has mailed as high as 10000 pieces of matter in single day.
