The Frost.

The frost looked forth one still, clear
night,
And whispered: Nov I shall be out
of sight.
So through the valley and over the
height,
In silence I'll take my way.
| will not go on like that clustering
train,
The wind and the snow, the hail and
the rain,
Who make SO much noise and hustle
in vain;
But I'll be as busy as they
Then he flew to the mountain, and
powdered it's crest
He lit on the trees, and their boughs
he drest
In diamond beads; and over the
breast
OF the quivering lake he spread
A coat of mail. that it need not fear
The downward point of many a spear,
That he hung on it's margin, far and
near,
WHERE IOcK could rear It's mead.
He went to the windows of those who
slept,
And over each pane like fairy crept.
Wherever he breathed, wherever he
stepped,
By the light of the morn were seen
Most beautiful things There were
flowers and trees;
There were bevies of birds and
sWarms of bees;
There were cities with temples and
towers; All these
All pictured in silver sheen!
But he di done thing that was hardly
fair.
He peeped in the cupboard; and find
ing there
That all nd forgotten for him to pre-
pare,
Now, just to set them a-thinking,
I'll bite this basket of fruit said he,
'This costly picture T. burst in three;
And the glass of water they've left
for me
Shall 'tchick.. to tell them I'm
drinking!'

CHAPTER XII.

well, now there will be peace
said my step-father with satisfaction,
as he ate his first breakfast after the
recei~t of this news. Dear Otto,
there is a proverb: 'Whomsoever the
devil wants to aff1ict, to him he gives
a pretty daughter but that is non
sense, is it not, Anneliese? I say, to
him he gives a garrulous old woman
in his house. Good radiance to her,
and may we never see her more!"
At mammals request I presided at
this meal The ladies had not yet ap-
peared, mamma was in bed with a
headache, and Frau Sellmann had
ordered her tea to be brought to her.
for she was in the habit of drinking II
in bed. I had been rudely awakened
from my short sleep. The cousin was
gone, the gracious madame was i'll,
would see to the breakfast BILE.
| cannot describe the sense of lonelf-
ness on this morning upon which nv
old guardian angel was not sitting at
the stove to light fire for her 'slittle
Anneliese," who lay so cozily il her
bed and dreamed while it cracked and
burned. Then the fire1iobt danced up-
on papa's picture and lent the beloved
face an almost life-like look: without.

focks of hungry sparrows. tomtits and

There was leak in the patent office.
A man who had filed his application
some months before called and with

despite the best he could do AlHhe
got was right to collect royalties on
certain parts. He profited by this for
a time and was then fooled out of it.
His recent plan of invention EN-
braced a conviction that electricity
can be produced without extraneous
aid, such as steam. He insisted that
the energy obtained from coal through
steam will be turned directly into
electricity. He claimed that too much
of the latent energy is lost in the
roundabout transformation, and that
the direct results will be sooner or
later obtained without the waste Of
force.
Time and time again he tried to
utilize the electrical currents in the
air. He abandoned that theory. He
said that the force manifested in the
air is the result of conflict of natural
force, and exists in the air as form
of energy. 1t may have been light or
heat before 1t was changed to cleo
tricity. He did not think it could ever
be turned back into electricity for the
generation of power. Boston Trans

PNEUMONIA OF THE AGED.
Course of the Disease and Why 1t Is
so Fatal.

Course of the Disease and Why 1t Is
so Fatal.
The fatal character of pneumonia
in aged persons is strikingly verified
in the death of former Secretary of
State William M. Evarts.
Although in declining health for
several months, he was only critically
i'll from the lung affection for few
days, when sudden collapse occurred.
The initiatory symptoms were those of
grip, and when that sickness develop
ed into the more extended inf1amma-
tory trouble there was necessarily
very little hope for his recovery.
In elderly persons the pneumonia
complication is so often associated
with influenza that the two processes
may almost be considered as con
shutting different grades of common
disease.
The reason for such an assumption
may be based on the well-known
tendency of the mucous mbranes of
old persons to invite attacks of in
f1ammation and to succomb easily to
such morblfic influence. The heart
also having lost it's vigor on account
of degenerative changes is incapable
Of bearing ~he strain of an impeded
pulmonary circulation and gives out
early in the disease. Thus it is by ms
means uncommon in such cases to
learn that death occurs long before
the so-called crisis has been reached.
The ominous signs of danger are
difficult breathing, weak pulse and
tendency to faintness caused by
combined gripping of lung and heart
power. The general system is sur
prised, SO to speak, by the sudden
overwhelming odds against it. Dur
ing the early stages of grave attack
of pneumonia the bronchial tubes are
so rapidly filed with catarrhal
effusions and the breathing space is
SO much curtailed that even the in.
halation of oxygen and active stimula-
ton are of no avail. This is par
ticularly the case in the pneumonia
OF the aged, and in a great measure
accounts for its frightful morality

THE CHURCH DANCE.
Curious Annual Custom Held in Old
English Churches.

The ancient custom of dancing in
church is still practiced in the parish
in England, in connection with the
ancient rite of rush-bearing. On May
Day each twelve young maidens Of
Brough, approved by the vicar Assem-.
BILE at the foot of Brough Bridge, with
flowers and fresh garlands on their
heads. Accompanied by a band, they
proceed through the fields to Mus
grave, the band playing and the rush
bearers dancing. The girls are led up
the north aisle of the church, and
they hang their garlands at the side.
there to remain until the next year.
The gospel is read by the clergyman,
prayers are offered AMI the psalms
sung, after which the clerk and vicar
retire. A space is then cleared near
the altar and fiddle produced.
Dancing begins ana continues until
the afternoon.
Dancing is also frequently seen in
continental churches. During the
Corpus Christi octave a ballet is
danced every evening before the high
altar of Seville Cathedral by boys
from II to II years of age. They
wear plumed hats and the dress Of
pages of the time of Philip III. To
this day dancing procession chant
ing curious carol takes place at
Echternach, in Luxembourg, on Tues
day in Whitsun week 1t is called
the Procession of the Jumping Saint.
1t consists of long train of pilgrims
dancing three PAGES forward and then
backward. They are headed by the
clergy, all dancing. They dance from
the bridge over the Saur to the church
round the altar, and then separate at
q cross in the emetery.-Louisyille

able summer resorts pretty belle

They were of deep red roses fastened
