Tis Morning, and the Days are Long. I had a dream of other dayB: ^ In golden luxury shono the 'wheat, j. In tangled greenness shook the maize; The squirrels ran with nimble leet, I And in and out among tho trees The bang bird darted like a flame, a The catbird piped her melodies, Purloining every warbler'B tame: And then I heard the triumphal song, t " 'lis morning, and tho days aro long." " t Tbey scattered roses, strewed tho palms, ^ And shomtod down the pleasant vales; j, I heard a thousand happy psalms, ] And laughing, wove a thousand tales C 01 mimic revelry and joy; j <They mocking well the worldly great? ' Each tanlaced girl and barefoot boy, j Dear shapers ot ray early ta'te? ' And tbeu again the ^Eolian song, t " 'Tis morning, and the days are long." .. . . . 3 Far winding past the storied town, The river ran through bosky groves, j Its floods we sailed our essels down, r Full freighted with a myriad loves; j Our souls went flouting to the Rales, t With scarlet leaves anil sheads oi bark, f i We namorf them outt?ia, schooners, sails, 1 And watched them lade in shadowy dark: j I t Then down the water flowed the song, j " 'Tis morning, and the days are long." Oh! morning, when the days are long, And youth and innocence are wed, And every grove is full ol song, I r And every pathway void of dread; c Who rightly sings its rightlul praise, Or rightly dreams it o'er again, , " When cold and narrow are the days, j And shrunken all the hopes ol men, I ^ He shall reawaken with his song. " Ti? morn ina* and the days are long." J t S There palpitations wild and sweet, The thrills of many an old delight, And dimpled hands that lightly meet, jAnd hearts that tremble to unite, t Arise upon tho rosy morn, c l'ass down the lovely vulcs and stand, * A picture ot a memory born, Tho mini go ol a lotus laud? j A land where once wo trolled the song, a " 'Tis morning, and the days aie long." ? ?B.

J h % t : S ; * That was a rather cruel, unfeeling re- a mark of Mr. Earle to his daughter Sadie, I or Sarah as she now wished to be called, because, " at least, she wasn't a baby." a " No, sis, you're neither a little girl nor e a woman; but just between hay and grass, n as one may say.'' ^ _ _ t Sarah gave an extra push to her already }' well tied back muslin overskirt, and started a for school with a smoldering spark in her I eye. 'J " It's true what father says," she solilo- t quized as she walked along. " I'm too old v to wear my dresaes short, and too young to <' wear them long; too old to let my hair go o loose and comfortable, and too young for 1 frizzes, pufl's and coils. And as the cows j in il>? snrinp. when hav is cone and srass i .> not well grown, have to put up with odds i ^ and ends, so I have to take all Hat's and | Jen's cast-off dresses and hats; or ii there j is anything awfully unbecoming to them I e get that, whether I like it or not. Then, h in the work, what I have is just what u everybody eke hates to do, like washing the dishes and cleaning the lamps?just c what nobody gets fredit for, either, only blame fotnot doing well." " w By this time this ambitions girl of onrs had reached the school-house; but the c teacher had an engagement, so the card attached to the door-handle told the scholars d Sarah started at once to retrace her steps!; * for it was a two-mile walk, with *nly here and there a few old apple trees to "shield " her from the sun's glare. 11 As she walked her thoughts reverted to the morning's conversation, partly, perh-ips, 8 because the scent of the new-mown hay r greeted her. Like any girl of her age ii struck her as a queer, backward sort of r comparison to speak of childhood as the v time of hay. "Oh, yes!" she exclaimed, aloud as a ? thought struck her; "I see how it is!" aad ' she at once resolved to write the coming c week's composition on that very subject. "I'll say, she soliloquized, ''that child- j hood is cared for by the general love of j father andf mother. That's the hay, ^ou c see! But, at last, the youth goes out into j the world ana gainers love tor mmselt. And I shall give it a moral tuns; for, ^ somehow, I think young people ought not t to be selfish, even if I am so?but ought to j gather love by loving." "What is.the use of talking, though? j. If I really wanted to be useful, I couldn't. t Who'd ask me to sit up and watch with sick people, for instance ? I couldn't even j keep awake all ni;iht. I wish I could be sure I'd be the right sort of woman, and then, seems to me, it might be beautiful to | be wrinkled or gray; for, by that time one is sure of one's self.'' Then she suddenly stepped down from her * mount of moral enthusiasm?a feat, alas! ? so easily accomplished, so kard to account ] for often. " Before I get to be good and gray I'd a like some nice times and some nice things. This muslin overskirt and waist are pretty t enough and, for once, new, but?why? , what!?" . i She sprang quickly out of the road in I ; sudden terror, lor she thought a loose horse | ? was plunging furiously down the road be- j ? hind her. She had not scrambled half way ^ un the st.tp bank before he came in sight, j c. but to !> r relief he was not riderless. | ? Sonire Wait'.* Ih>v reined hirn in with l t difficulty, jus: within view, and turning in s his saddle, shouted at the top of his voice, ^ evidently to some one in a neighboring ^ field: _ Li "If Doctor Ainalie ain't to home, what'll! j I do?" I a Sarah could not hear the replay; but the | f boy appeared satisfied, for he quickly set- i ] tied himself in the saddle, applied the whip | ^ to the horse, and was out ?f sight in an in- i t stant. t Sarah hurried up the bank and looked c over the stone on its top. At no great dis- s tance she saw a man lying on the ground, i f and three others standing by him. In a i t moment she saw who it was, and as sh? ran s toward the group she guessed the truth.! s which was that 'Squire Wait himself had j t received at the hands of one of his blunder- j 1 ing workmen a severe ?ut in the leg from a j 1 scythe while mowing. | i The bright arterial blood was pouring;' from the wound, a death-like pallor had j ' overspread the sufferer's face, and his eyes | ^ were already half-closed. Sarah whisked the muslin overskirt over j 1 her head like a flaj?h. 1 " Help me tear a broad bandage out of I 1 this!''she cried. j! The men were dull-looking, plodding 1 laborers, but one of them seemed encouraged j by her air of determination, and in a mo- | i ment from the back of the skirt a breadth j was torn. Without any words Sarah tied a j ; strong knot in this breadth. Then she J ' stooped down, and with one great heart- j ( sinking, cr.e cry of the flesh against the ; ! spirit, she lifted the rent garment from the | ! gaping wound to see just where it was; ( then she pressed the knot just above the ! j wound with ay her strength. "John," said she, steadily, "tie this band- j : age under the leg, and one of you others go \ \ as quick as you can for a stoat, short | stick." The blood, already affected in its flow by her pressure, oozed more slowly from the \ wound. The stick was brought in a trice, 11 and slipped under the bandage where John 1 1 had tied it in a " hard knot." I 1 "Now, John," said Sarah, calmly,"twist; 1 the^slkk till vou tighten the bandage so ' i 'tSat the blood shall stop altogether." ! ! By the time this was done, poor Mrs.: < Wait, trembling and terrified, arrived on ! 1 the scene with a little old-fashioned pocket! 1 battle of smelling salts, and a cruet of M vinegar wherewith to bathe her husband's j 1 head. These restoratives answered well |1 enough till the doctor arrived. ;1 " You're a right sensible girl," said the ! 1 doctor, when he heard what Sarah had ! done. "Any one of you fellows," con- i 1 tinued he, "could have stopped the blood, ] or mostly have stopped it, by pressing the ' limb above the wound with your fingers till help could be got." * j Uext morning, Sarah stopped at the squire's gate to learn how he was. John was spreading hay in a field close by, and , he came out to the road to speak to her. j "I say," he said, contemplating her ( slight form with genuine admiration, " cnch a little creeter as you be to ha' ben ( so knowin' and smart! Why, you can't be , mor'n fourteen or fifteen at the out-ide." j 11 Only fifteen'' answered Sarah, with ft j queer smile. "Just between hay and \ ( grass.'' I "Inever did see the beat!" responded ! \ John. " How'd you know so well what to 11 i \ dew'/that's what I'd like to know!" It ? / , . . ...... " Oil! 1 learned it at school,'' answe Sarah, with a little air ot patronage i motility combined. "You see, John, ilood that cornea straight from the heai iright red, and comes in jete as the h< eats; didn't you notice that?" ' Yes! yes! I see his life was bea iway, but nothin' we could dew woul< uit him; and, in fact, there didn't seen >e nothin'we could dew.'' " Well,'' continued she -finding his v lering thoughts had come home ag : when the blood comes Miat way an iright red like that,you must do some'b it once. You must put your force c :not as 1 dirt, between the wound and leart. Ami, while a knotted bandag ;etting ready, you ought to hold thel lp as high as you can. That will cli he blood. I forgot that at the time.'' "I never did see the beat!"' answi lohu, his limited vocabulary allowinj oore elegant phraseology in which to >ress his wonder and esteem. Sarah was moving on when John ca iter her. " Say, sis, it's a shame! but those n leads went to work and tore that p< nuslin thing of yours all to pieces, th: n* 'cause you asked for one bandage y< (rant twenty more. Miss's Wait was d ul sorry. Said if there had been eno eft for an apron 'twouldn't a ben so b; Sarah laughed and went 011, sniootl lown a dusty alpaca overskirt?an old >f Jenny's cut down.

Where it Camq From, Where It la Eaten '6BCh and How It ta Made. jnt Many there are who have heard and read of it; numbers have smelled of and - , sniffed at it, and have sworn they would lasn- jmve no ci03er acquaintance; but they have returned to the charge, and from laped smelling have proceeded to taste, and, as in acquiring the taste for tobacco, ar on opium and other disagreeable things, have contracted a fondness for the arly be tide, and soon declare that it is the best cheese made. Others, and especially favor Germans and Hollanders, need not ac: quire the taste; a fondness for it seems to be a part of their make-up. albe- While the taste of this cheese when ' young is rich and creamy, and the flavor ire of not particularly stronp:, its powerful ad of odor when fully ripened has been likened to everything offensive, and the cheese, r nar- i<s consumers, have by some bewjje come the theme of reviling and ridicule. As its name indicates, Limburger had . its origin in the province of Limburg, in ; JJr Holland, where, with its peculiarity of ' Pat" shapsmell, process of making and curing, it was formerly exclusively made, enal, Thirty years ago its production in the wear United States was almost unknown, it grow being at that time thought, on account of the difference in climate and pasturrich age, impossible to produce it here. The colors same notion in regard to Swiss checse Mrs. prevailed, and consequently enormous quantities of both were imported from right Europe to Bupply the large demand in yraps t^1'9 country. But it was found that rims bot^ can ant* bave been produced in this r the country in such perfection that the very best judges are unable to detect any dif.. ference from the imported article. IrpsB Thousands of tons of Limburger are Himo now produced every season, mostly in *"or tne States 01JN ew x oik anu >v lacuaaiu, ' or at a cost of less than half of the imported article. It finds its market and is conlong sumed mostly in those cities containing ^ of a large proportion of Germans?Chicago, ?ning Milwaukee, St. Louis and New York, cam- It is more profitable to the farmer and Swiss maker than any other kind of cheese; first, because from a given quantity of ill be milk more weight is obtained, owing to i, but the mode of making and curing, and also amed because the price it brings is usually from spen- ten to forty per cent, higher than that rans- obtained for the standard American cheese. In neighborhoods wh*re its manufacture has been commenced it usually spreads to the exclusion of o.her r kinds. ? are rj,^e cbepse is made in factories capa; can ble of working the milk from 100 to 400 co^" cows, rai-ely exceeding the latter nummea; ber< ag more would require a larger area , sol? of country than would be desirable on \ a" account of distance t? the factory, as the .y milk is hauled and cheese made twice a day usually. The makers generally buy firty the milk from the farmer at a price Jrom agreed upon for the season of six months, icoms 5eginning about May 1. The process of tners mHnufacture in its first stages does not differ from the usual way, except that a 10 lower temperature is kept while the curd is forming, the animal heat alone in Pc.r" summer being often high enough. Great lei.r care is taken to use pure milk, free from n?ls*7 taint or filth, and cleanliness is requisite ' a in every sta^e of the making. Upon the race: curd being formed it is slo wly and carcwara fuiiy cut into squares, pieces the size of ig^nt (ijce? ]ow temperature and careful handosom ling being necessary to avoid breaking , . the butter gJobu^s, upon which the nair richness of cheese depends. It is slightly ?| scalded and stirred, most of the whey nany ,irnwn nff ?nH. without being salted. J,ety the curd is dipped out into perforated I ; ana woo(ien boxes or molds about live inches 0VCI square, and left to drain without any pereci pressure being applied. In a few hours V: el" the packages* are carried into the curing llvcr cellar and placed edgeways on shelves, i.una- like bricks set to dry. Every day j?' thereafter they are rolled in salt, and en.yy replaced when they have absorbed r Vie enough salt.

A Workman'* Terrible Experience in a Caving Well?Fastened Under a Fall of Sand Thirteen Feet Deep Over lOO Feet Below the Surface-Brave and Sklllfal Beionerii ? bfl Last Friday, at noon, says the Neils- w ville (Wis.) Republican, a well being lo dug at the fair grounds caved in at the he bottom after it had reached a depth of 118 feet, buiring William Selves, a gi workman, under about thirteen feet of sb sand, measuring from his head while he w: was in a nearly upright position. The well had reached a depth of 100 fett sc when a stratum of loose white sand was p? reached, whicli made curbing necessary, th An upright curbing in sections four feet m long was used. While putting in the fourth section the caving in of the well sti took place, first crushing in the lower w section, not yet finished, and pinning f11 Selves in solid sand nearly to his arm- 111 pits. It was instantly followed by the three sections above,which were crushed ?n tlia r>pntr>r (in RPfiine' it start Selves had instinctively raised a section of the " curbing over his head, bending backward, face up, with the arm supporting ^ the piece of curbing stretched above his p, head. In this position the sand settled at about him, completely binding him. ex- si cept his head and one arm, which he R could move at that time. The section tc of curbing which he had raised above R his'head created a vacuum which for a n( time communicated with the vacuum P' through the center of the well made by lr the coming together of the barrel-like curbing tl As soon as possible, a gas pipe for the tt purpose of pumping air to him was in- i{( serted through the opening, Selves, n who then had one hand at liberty, plac- el ing it as near his mouth as the boards e: over him would permit. Soon after tl this was accomplished, the sand settled el solidly above him leaving only the P1 vacuum under the board, which soon filled so close as to imprison the arm H1 that had been at liberty, and to also ^ render Ins head lmmovaoie. in mis t| situation, plainly depicted by himself in tj sepulchral tones through the air tube, j. and perfectly audible at the top of the u well, William Selves, then six hourf a without food, and cramped and chilled by the cold sand, said he would hold on <j to life if there were brave hearts enough a; above him to undertake his release, A knowing full well the danger to those H who might attempt it in a hurry. 91 The task was to remove from thirteen J to eighteen fett of sand from the bottom ^ of a well 116 feet deep, by putting in a Cl new curbing while taking oui the sand and debris of the old curbing, and to do it all so carefully as not to fill the little vacuum above his face. Coupled with 3 this task was the appalling danger to the n workmen of a fresh caving of the well, now mor. imminent than the first, for cl above the ominous vacuum made by the a caving of the sand hung the hundred k feet of clay wall with no support but its own adhesion, its natural foundation of si sand being gone. The bore through the ? clay being but twenty-seven inches in " diameter, could not, for lack of both " time and space, be curbed. g In the face of these discouragements ? were brave hearts enough found to work B night and day,'never slacking except for b a short time on Saturday morning, when for a time lutlier attempts seemea sui- a cidal by reason of the caving in of a n small portion of the clay wall. But p soon new precautions were devised, and h the almost hopeless work went on to sit d practical conclusion at one o'clock this (Sunday) morning, when a friendly h hand raised the planks and brushed the B sand irom the now nearly unconscious d face. He had retained his mind per- t> fectly up to a few moments before, when 0 the tenderly cautious hand3 above him, 8 in spite of their care, had so diPturbed a the sand as to cover his face, and interrupted the supply of air from the tube. "J lie returned to perfect consciousness * in a few moments, and, his head released, the work went rapidly on, he " himself helping materially . after his R arms were released. At 3:30 o'clock, ij nearly forty hours aftev his incarceration, William Selves stepped firmly r from the mouth of his living grave and 0 was received in the arms of his young t wife amid glad shouts of the throng who t had so long shared his suspense.
