Come to my sylvan bower,
Come to my cool retreat;
Where the rose leaves ever shower
And the silence is complete.

Where the granite rocks are set

And the ferns with dew are wet.
Climb to the topmost rock and look
Down where the shadows lie,
Where the waters of the running brook
Darken and dimple and sigh
This is the path the Indian trod-

creased. Judge Tailant hHS himself
worked like Il steam tbresher, and has
still been obliged to hire two or three

cents he can store the bicycle for four

A DOGS DILEMMA.
Can't Land on British Soil Nor Stay
on ShfpbOard.


1t has long been the custom of Eng
hshmen to idealize the British customs
and port regulations and denounce
those of other countries as worthy of
the dark ages. But case occurred in
Liverpool the other day which scarcely
fits this boasted perfection. A board
Of agriculture order came into force on
September. IS, whereby dogs are for
b:dden to be landed in this land of free
dom without license from the board. a
full description of the animal, and a
sworn declaration as to its destination.
The board reserved the right of impos-
ing six months canine quarantine at
the owners expense, and the order
bristles with threats and punishments
for infringement or evasion. AT Liver
pool there is also local port regulation
to the effect that no dog shall be allowed
to remain aboard ship within the juris-
diction of the Mersey docks and har-
bor board.
A steamer arrived at Liverpool re-
Gently the captain of which gloried in
the ownership of dog Finding that
he could not take it ashore without it
being seized by the board Of agriculture
myrmido ons sandsubjected to six months
quarantine, the captain kept it aboard
the ship, and was forthwith hauled be-
fore the magistrates and fined fer
breach of the dock boards regulations.
He now wants to know what the devil be
is to do, and the champions of British
perfection are unable to help him. The
only tangible course advised is that the
dog be killed and its body embalmed.
The objections to this are numerous. 1t
is manifest that dead dog is not of
much good, and, as far as the lawyers
can see, a dog is dog whether alive or
dead. Moreover, he cannot put it
ashore into six months quarantine be-
cause it is entered on the ships papers
as live dog and it is treated by the
customs as bonded stores, which have
to be produced whenthe ship clears out
ward Doubtless this worthy captain
before now has cursed the United States
regulations, and therefore his present
dilemma may be regarded as a judg-
ment upon him.-London Corr n. Y.

One OF :'erry-s Lake Erie Fleet.

Buried deep in the sands at the edge
of Spring Lake, near Grand Haven,
Mich, lies the hull of the old sloop
,Porcupine, which was one of Lieut..
Oliver II. Perry's fleet in the battle,of
Lake Erie. The old boat is nearly gone.
She has lain there since 1873, when she
went out of service, and was beached
by a gang of men who had tried to rig
her up as lumber lugger d. NJ. Ferry,
later United States senator from Mich
igan, owned the land where the dis
couraged sailors flung the hull and he
left her there to work deeper and deep
cr into the sand. She is just at the end
of one of his docks now; but he knew
the hoporable part she had played, and
while he lived he refused to move her.

WOMEN PRINTERS.
They Are Not as Well Paid as Men In
England.

1LhG
The occupation was opened to wom-
en- in England by the late Emily Faith
full, when she started the Victoria
Press. Only small proportion of the
number of persons now engaged In
printing are women, and with few eS-
ceptions they are paid much lower
wages than are paid to men. One rea-
son alleged for the exclusion Of women
from the trade is that they are not
able to lift the ''forms" and do not un-
derstand the work beyond simply set
ting up. At the Women's Printing So
ciety in London, which has been 20
years at work, and at a little printing
office started by one of the apprentices
trained by that society," who married
a printer, the girls are thoroughly
trained; they do book and newspaper
work, "jobbing," imposing" and max
ing up" everything, in short, but the
actual machining, which is a process
quite distinct from composing. But
most of the firms which employ women
do not initiate them into anything be-
yond setting up, correcting and distrib-
uting. And then they say, there
are certain parts of the work women
cannot do The only thing women do
not do at &C Whitcomb street the
Women's Printing society is lifting
the forms" Miss Hall comments:
when there are men on the premises
it is, of course, much wiser not to let
women do this work, though, as mat
ter of fact, the carrying of heavy coal
boxes and buffers trays full of crock
cry up and down long flights of stairs,
as hundreds of domestic servants do
every day of their lives, is scarcely less
heavy work, and is much more continu-
ous."
The rapid increase of trade unionism
helps TO keep women out of the trade.
The unions will not admit women I'M
less they receive the same pay as men,
and employers will not employ women
unless they will work cheaper than
men. In Scotland, the unions declare
that they have no objection to enroll
women as members if they are eligible,
that is, receive the same wages as the
men. "They thus throw the on'us on
the employers, or on the inability of
the women to induce employers to place
them on an equal footing with the
men, while masters, even of nonsociety
houses, not infrequently say that they
are afraid to employ women, as the
men would object, and when stress of
work came would fail them. Between
the two the women are placed in an
impasse." e.
In Edinburgh about $50 women COM
positors are employed, larger num-
Der than in any other city or town
in the kingdom. They are paid less
than one-half of the wages paid to men.
One woman. proofreader belongs to the
Scottish Trade society, as she receives
the recognized wages. One woman also
has joined the London Compositions So
ciety. She is the daughter of a late
master printer, and was employed by
the late William Morris at the Kelm-
scott Press and received the same
wages as the men.-Emily Hall, in Lon
don Woman's Signal.
