A MOUNTAIN GIRL.

TITS morning The rising sun just tops
the crest of that portion of the Appalachian
chain Of mountains between the northern
and southern boundaries of the state OF
Kentucky, tinging its peaks and craGs
with a grayish vaguencss. From every
ravinc ard gorge hugo clouds of smokelike
mist arise, assuming wondrously odd and
fantastic forms in the uncertain light.
The stiffness engendered by tho natural
environments and time OF day is unbrokcn
save now and then by the farof bay OF
foxhound floating family from some
mountaineer's cabin or the whistle of a
doves wing as it flies swiftly by to the
sedge fields.
The sun climbs higher and, conscious
of It's might drives back to earth the
quenching mtsts. Tho rear guard shadows
Of the night arc mysteriously disappearing.
The smoke of the numerous cabin Chin
neys can now DO distinguished rising in
curling columns of blue. Along the rutty
clay road, or rather mountain path, and
huggirg tho worm eaten rail fence for
safety, q red fox sinks under cover of the
alder bushes, his whiskers ard brush bris-
Ting with pendant drops of morning dew.
A mother quail and her brood that have
been pluming their feathers on topnost
rail, with an affrighted whir, fly to cover.
Presently a soldier in his uniform comes
galloping furiously down the road. He
passes at full speed. The sound Of his
steeds hoof beats grow fainter, and 81
lence for few minutes again rcigns, only
to be broken by q dozen or more men in
uniforms of the other side, who break coy
er and almost come down the road like
mad their horses rocking with sweat and
blood. Tho first man, farther down where
the road forks, has turned to the right.
These others take the left hand branch. In
a few moments shots are heard, and pres
emily q horse, the ono ridden by tho first
man, comes galloping back to be met and
caught by slim, dark eyCd mountain girl,
who comes. suddenly out OF the bushes
from somewhere. She stands there hold
ing the bride reirs in her right hand.
Tho left is pressed hard against her heart,
as if to ward off an unseen blow. Her
eyes, stony in their intensity, look off far
up the valley to d break in the mountains
where Gods good morning dis lays it,
bright rays. Her gaze finally turns toward
the pursuers, who at the sound Of the
shots have ridden back to the forks, and
catching sight Of the GiTl and the horse
come excitedly up the road toward her.

TRUE NOBILITY.

For this true nobleness l seek In vain.
M.woman and in man find 1t not.
l almost weary of my earthly lot
My life springs are dried up with burning Pain.
Thou fndst 1t not pray thee look again
Look inward, through the depths of thine
own soul.
How is it with thee? Art thou sound and
whole?
Doth narrow search show thee no earthly stain;
Be noble, and the nobleness that lies
In other men, sleeping, but never dead,
Will rise in majesty to meet thine own;
Then wilt thou see it CLEAN in many eyes;
Then will light around thy path be shed,
And thou wilt never more be sad and lone.

placed at the we'll and during the hght

as near amidships as possible. Is al
ways left open for the passing down OF

no call on his services. but the rule in
every quarter of a battleship is, BE

the best" When everything is ready
the officers move to their stations. II
the ship is a monitor the battle matches
are closed. and the men at last hear
the final command. for which they have
been impatiently waiting-"Action!
At that moment, the doors Of the mag
azine are opened. and the men who
form the different chains of scuttles
begin to pass the cartridge cases up
to the deck. The delivery Of ammu-
milton is in charge Of the gunner. In
modern naval fortunes the gunner is
not. as many landlubbers suppose, the
man who fires the cannon. He is a
warrant officer. and his position is
most responsible one in time Of action.

The Casters Marching On.


Do We hear the song of triumph,
Breaking DER the brink Of dawn
Hear the gladness and the glory
OF the casters marching on?
Hark! The universe is throbbing
To its sweet, unbroken chime.
Lo! The ages are resounding
With its choral strain sublime!
Do We hear its echoes ringing
Down the centuries long gone
Do We mark the rhythmic football
OF the casters marching on?
Do We see their banners cleaning.
And their serried cohorts bright.
And their standards high uplifted.
Radiant with celestial light?
See sin skulking, shadows scatter,
Conquered death grow weak and
wan.
Terrors fleeing from the highway
OF the casters marching on
See the grave, so dark and dreaded.
Now become a royal bed
Which the King of Kings hath hal
lowed
Where is neither Death. nor dead!
Do We know the holy joying,
Breathing blissful benson,
Sorrows keenest dart destroying
OF the casters marching on?
Feel We not the wings Of healing
Chase afar the clouds of gloom,
AS earth thrilled with glad rejoicing.
Bursts to bright and beauteoua
bloom?
With one mighty song victorious.
With one glorious antiphon,
With one watchword. are the legions
OF the Casters marching on.
Christ hath risen. hath abolished
Satan's disinherison!
Life immortal. life eternal"
Shout the casters marching on!
