A maid reclined beside a stream, At fall of summer day, And half awake, and half a-dream, She watched the ripples play ; She marked the waters fall and heave, The deepening shadows throng, And heara, as darkened do^yu the eve, The river's bubbling song; And thus it sung, with twinkling topgue, That rippling shadowy rivpr? J4Youth's brightest day will fade away, Forever and forever 1" The twilight past, the moon at last Rose broadly o'er the night, Each ripple gleams bepe.ath her beams, As wrought in silver light; The heavjpg waters glide along, But mingling with their vqice The nightingale now pours his song, And makes the shades rejoice; A?d thus he sung with tuneful tongue, That bird beside the river?

Danger in the Sewing Machine. The frequency and character of f the hurtful effects of sewing-machine \ Work havo been investigated at differ- ( ept times by medical observers here ( aud abroad, but never so satisfactory ( }y as in a report of the State Board of Health of Massachusetts, embrar ( cing a wide range of careful inquiry. * prom this it seems evident that exist- * ent uterine and ovarian maladies arc f almost invariably aggravated by even c occasional oxertion at the machine; c c.,r.u mn!,./I!(ia orrt rnmmcnlv in- ^ llUib OUV'll lit^iuuivw M>?-V -<? ? ^ dueed In tho delicate by steady em- i ployraent of this sort; and, even as regards the sttong, that ''this unnat- ( tiral movement of the feet upon the s ' old tpeddle for eight or Dine hours ^ daily tends to produce in a large pro- , portion of women fatigue, pain, and cramps in the limbs, back, and loins, 1 the degree of which will depend upon c the physical capacity of the individ- c ual and tho material which is being s made up. If this labou. is persisted in, tho result is that a physical detc rioratioh may be induced, the constitution being insidiously weakenod, in which condition certain specific dis- , eases, particularly those peculiar to women, ma}* be developed and aggra- " vated by the abnormal amount of } blood forced into the pelvic organs, or 1 I if no snccial disease is developed, their 1 reduced condition is mado manifest ] by tl?e decided manner in which triv- I ial illnesses affect them." To obviate these difficulties steam s power has been introduced in many { factories whero numbers of sewing- ( machines are kept running, and with highly beneficial results; but there still remain to be provided for the , weary hundreds whose toil is per- 1 formed at home. For these/' various 1 1 expedients have been devised. First, 1 . modifications of the treadle, whereby t the power might be applied with less ( fatigue; then an electro - magnetic ( motor of ingenious construction, but ( somewhat above tho ken of the un- } nhilosonhical, a series of radiating , electro-magnets being connected with { a galvanic battery, the current from which is alternately interrupted and completed by the revolution of the shaft; and last, but not least, a toylike steam engine which could bo car- 1 ried in one's pocket, and yot is capa- < ble of generating a surprising amount of force.
