When the rude world hath used thee with despite And care aits at thy elbow day and night, Filching thy pleasures like a subtle thief?. To me, when life besets me in such wise, 'Tis sweetest to break forth, to drop the U1UUU, And grasp the freedom of this pleasant earth, To roam in idleness and sober mirth Through summer airs and summer lands, and drain The comfort of wide fields unto tired eyes. By hills and wat?rs, farms and solitudes. To wander by the day with wilful feet, Through fielded valleys wido with yellowing wheat, Along gray road3 that run between deep woods Murmurous and cool, through hallowed slopes of pine, Where the long daylight dreams, unpiercsd, unstirred, And only the rich-throated thrush is heard; By lonely forest brooks that froth and shine In bowldered crannies, buried in the hills; By broken beaches tangled with wild vine, And log-strewn rivers murmurous with mills. In upland pastures, sown with gold, and sweet With the koen perfume of the ripening grass, Where wings of birds and filmy shadows pass, Spread thick as stirs with shining mar gusrite; To haunt old fences overgrown with brier, Muffled in vines, and hawthorns, and wild cherries, Rank poisonous ivies, red-bunched elderberries, . And pied blossoms to the heart's desire, Gray mullein towering into yellow bloom, Pink-tasselei milkwaad, breathing dense perfume, I And swarthy vervain, tipped with violet | fire. To hear at eve the bleating of far flocks. The mud-hens whistle from the marsh at morn; To skirt with deafensd ears and brain o'erborne Some foam-Ailed rapid charging down it", . rocks With iron roar of waters; far away Across wide-readed meres, pensive with noon, To hear tha querulous outcry of the loon; To lie among deep rocks, and watch all day On liquid heights the snowy clouds melt by; Or hear from wood-capped mountain brows the jay Pierce t be brightmorning with his jibing cry. To feast on summer sounds; the jolted wains, The thrashing humming from the farm near by. The prattling cricket's intarmittant cry, ] , The locus ;'s rattle from th9 sultry lanes; Or in tha shadow of soma oaken spray To watch as through a mist of light and dreams The far-off hay-fields, where the dusty teams Drive round and round the lessening squares of bay, And hear upon the wind, now loud, now low. With drowsy cadence half a summer's day, The clatter of the reap3r3 come and go. Far violet hills, horizons filmed with shad- j OW3, The murmur of cool streim3, the foresi's gloom, The voices of the breathing: grass, the hum Of ancient gardens overbanked with flowers; Thus, with a smile as golden as tha dawn, And cool fair fingers raliantly dlvina. And mighty mother brings us in her hand, For all tired eyes and foreheads pinched and wan, Her restful cup, her beaker of bright wine; Drink, and be filled, and ye shall understand! ?Archibald Lampman, in Scribner. rPTTn T TUTT "P "DTTTr?

Durand's hands bore the marks of honest toil, for he had been a locksmith in his youth, and had by industry and economy raised himself steadily until he became the proprietor of a large business, and secured a competency for his old age. His wife, & quiet, gentle creature, worshiped her husband, and both of them wore on their faces an expression of serenity, which betokened ease of conscience and a life of peace. Durand was past sixty years of age, and his wife must have been fifty, yet in spite of their wrinkles and gray hairs, these two treated each other with an affectionate deference which was a pleasure to behold. While we were engaged in conversa tion just before dinner, Durand ro3e and opened a drawer to take out some trifle which he wished to show to me. "While he was turning over the contents of the draw, it chanced that a little cap, such as might have been worn by a doll, or an infant, fell to the floor. I noticed that it was made of coarse blue linen, with two bits of twine instead of ribbon. For a minute Durand looked at the little cap affectionately; then as be laid it carefully away again, he s-iidin a tone of seriousness: "That is a souvenir." Then we all three sat down to dinner and talked of other matters, but as soon as the repast was finished, and the little maid of all v/ork had put coffee upon the table, my friend said suddenly "How much that baby-cap reminds me ofl'' It was /ident that he wanted to explain his remark and I besreei him to do so. 4,It was a great msny years ago," he said, after a pause, "for I was about twelve years old. I was working in a large factory, and I had a companion, of the same age as myself, whom, on account of his ugly features,Jwe nicknamed Zizi Monkey-face. He was a sly, thiev.ng, mischievious urchin, very much given to filching tarts from the pastry cook's counter, but a jolly little chap, and full of pluck. He was so lazy that he would have been turned out of the fivtory hud it not been lor the indul' '-> *-*-*? ? IV, . '-.V1 : : ' yr^S^TSKj; .. % 1 i ) 'Jfl ? * - \ . I - J - gence of the overseer, who had been a ] friend of his father's and who took an j interest in the boy for the sake of his dead comrade. Monkev-face was an orphan, and the only relative he had ever known was the wom:;n who brought him up, a cousin of his mother's. This woman was a fish peddler, a brawling, brutal creature, whose affection for her young charge was manifested only by blows. Perrhaps if he had known a parent's love he would have been less perverse. One afternoon, the lad took it into his head to run away from the factory, and go vagabonding about with a gang of young ruffians like himself. As they were coming slowly home after nightJail, they heard, to their astonishment, the cry of an infant. The sound seemed to issue from a long, narrow, dirty ally which opened on the street, and at the other end of which hung a dimly flickering lamp. After a short consultation, the street boys ventured softly into the passage, and one of them espied, behind rlnew ft lif-f.ln hiim'll/> nf rncra whirVi VUV, VAVV4, ^ ~ --C*W struggled and wailed. He seized hold of it, and the whole party ran into the street, triumphant, stopping under a lamp to examine their capture. It proved to be a baby-girl a few weeks old, wrapped up in a series of dirtv cloths, a poor little innocent abandoned to the charity of strangers. A council was held to decide what should be done with thp booty, and the young captors gave free play to their mischievous imaginations. One said to put the baby back where they had found it; another, to hide it in a half-empty prune-box which stood at a grocer's ^ o Twnnnoo^ fn nlimK UUUi y U vuuu j^/IV^WWU vv v up to a second story balcony and leave the youngster there, and how astonished the people would be next day! But Zizi Monkey-face scouted all these ideas and declared that the baby must be given ^to the gypsie3. There was a band of thtsa people near by, who practiced jugglery ar.d fortunetelling,and instances of kidnapping were by no means rare. Monkey-face's decision was hailed with enthusiasm, and he claimed the right to carry the treasure-trove in consideration of his having made the plaD. "Give us the kid," he said. The baby had, all this time, been screaming piteously, but it stopped suddenly when Monkey-face took hold cf it, and while he walked alone: with an air of triumph, it fixed its great blue eyes upon his ugly face, and smiled, at the same time stretching its tiny hands out as if to cares3 him. "She is laughing!" cried the boy in delight, "see how she looks at me.'' Then a new impulse seized him. 4,I will not give her away," he said, "I will keep her myself." His companions protested indignantly, but in vain, for as they well knew Zizi Monkey-face had at the end of each arm an argument so strong that it would be useless as well as unsafe to oppose his wishes. "When he reached home with his burden the fish peddler exclaimed furiously. "Do you think I have not enough to do to nil your mourn, you lazy imp* j Take that brat to the police?quick now!" Pif, paf I A box on each ear showed the boy that she wa9 in earnest, and he fled from the house. That night he did not return, and the next morning he was in the factory as soon as it opened, for the first time in his life. 4lMr. George,1' he said timidly to the overseer, "how much will you pay me if I work hard all day?" 4'I have already told you, twenty cents," answered the man in surprise, and Monkey-face worked indefatigable until night. The overseer, amazed and delighted at the change, paid the boy for his work and gave him twenty cents in advance, in order to encourage him. That night Monkey-face was again absent from his home, and his cousin, the fish peddler, went to the factory the next evening, lay in wait for him, and dragged him home in spite of his struggles, administering a thrashing on tae way. But it wa9 no use; as soon as the old woman turned her back to cook the soup for dinner, the boy slipped out of the house and did not return. The factory overseer having been informed of the state of affairs made np his mind to settle the matter at once by finding out where Monkey-face spent his nights, and for this purpose watched the lad as he left the factory. Mr. George, in company with, one of the workmen, followed the wanderer at a short distance and observed him enter a bakery and buy a small loaf of bread; next he went into a dairy and came out carrying a bottle of milk, and then turned his step3 towards a lonely deserted quarter near the river. Suddenly his followers saw him plunge into ? muddy alley; the place hAvinc no lanms was as dark as an oven, O * but Monkey-face was dimly visible as he stopped before a board fence. The next minute he had scaled it with the ag"Iiity of the animal that was h'i9 namesake, and was lost to sight. The two meu determined to discover his hiding-place, climbed over the wall and found themselves in a large vacant lot, surrounded with weeds and rubbish, but of Moukey-facs there was not a sign!. At last they espied in the farthest corner, a low wooden shed whici had evidently onca served as a fowl-house, and througn the cracks of which a faint light was shining. They approached it noiselessly and peered through a crack. Great was their astonishment.

Zizi 31onkey-face transformed into a ! nurse! "What are you'doing here?" asked | the overseer, throwing open the door of i the cabin suddenly, and the boy startled ' at first by the intrusion soon recovered himself and answered slowly. 4'Haven't I got a right to have a little ' sister?'' Then after a pause he added grandly, "I earn twenty cents a day. That is enough for us both, and we don't ask atiy one for anything!" The narrator paused, smiled softly and J added: "The next day the awner of the factory being informed of the matter raised my pay to forty cents?just double." "What?" I cried, "it was you?" "Ah, I have betrayed e my self," said Durtnd. "Yes. I was the young rascal who was in a fair way to come to the , gallows, and thanks to the blue eyes of that little girl,-1 become a good workman, and afterwardB set up for myself. Now you understand why I keep that little blue cap; she had it on her when we found her." "And what hu become of her?" I asked eagerly. The old man a?3wered: "We have never parted;" then smiling, he looked at his wife and added: "Have we, my dear?" She smiled in return, but her eyes were moist as she looked at him, and under her eyelids I saw a tear drop glistening. ?From the French,in Epoch. A Picture in a Horse's Eye. Some rare and unaccountable freak of nature has made a natural wonder of an unassuming white horse at Spokane Falls, Washington. The wonder is not ^he horse himself, but in a picture which covers the front part of the left eye of the animal. Anyone who has ever had the pleasure of a visit to Spokane will remember the falls which give the city its other name; that is, tbe name of Spokane Falls. The picture in the horse's eye is a perfect miniature of the falls, island, mill and all. The animal's optic has been examined by hundreds of persons, including photographers, scientists, opticians, etc., and the miniature in the eye has been carefully compared with photographs and engravings of the falls, and all have concurred in pronouncing it a wonder of wonders and a most remarkably correct picture. rni? 1 me uwuer Ul I>UU> nuuuciiui i.icatuic, a Mr. Peakin, has been offered all the way from $5000 to $10,000 for his curiosity, but bo far be has refused all offers, seeming to prefer being pestered to death by sight-seers, who come by the thousands to view the uncanny picture and ask questions. A traveler, C. A. Dillman, who took a peep at the wonder of the "Wonder of the Rockies" last summer, has the following to say in regard to the horse and the picture: "Mr. Deakin sent the horse around to the hotel where I stopped, in order that I might see him. The animal is white in solor, and of medium size. I was somewhat sceptical about the story of the picture until I had looked into the horse's left eye. Judge of my astonishment when I saw therein depicted a perfect reproduction of the falls of the Spokane River, as true to life as any photograph." ; The part of the falls shown is from the water works across to the mills. The island upon which tho water works buildings stand is also shown. The picture is absolutely perfect in every detail. The horse is on? of a Dumber bought in by horse dealers, and has been the property of the present owner (who, by the way, was the discoverer of the picture) but a short while.?St. Louis Republic. Muscle Without Meat. The generally accepted idea as to meat-eating being indispensable to physi* cal welfare is confuted by hundreds of reports of personal experience, several of them appearing in Food, Home and Garden. A Michigan vegetarian's wifefsays 1 1 -1 ao ComcAn OnH ner uuyuuuu. js "sbivu^; uo uauiouu^ muv? doesn't know what it is to be sick." Another correspondent, "a vegetarian for forty years," although advanced in life, "is exceedingly active and healthy." "The longer I abstain from the flesh-pots, the less I feel inclined to return to them," writes a third; among other advantages he finds that of more freedom from rheumatism. A second instance of this painful disease is noted as due to "voracious appetite for meat." The most interesting case 13 reported by Mrs. H. S. Lake, Norwich, Conn., whose family bill of tam onnsiata mnstlv of fruit, vegetables and bread of entire-wheat flour?nc other kind ha9 been used on her table in five years, and under this system hei health is steadily improved. What she says further?in the appended excerptshows that such diet is amply sufficient, even under the double demand for support and growth: 4,My son is seventeen, weighs 160 pounds, is six feet tall, well proportioned, in best of health and spirits, no bad habit of any kind, and quite a musical genius; can play on most anything that blows with the mouth, and that without any instruction. He is an engineer, and has sole charge of the engine and boiler for a large silk-ribbon manufactory. It is quite amusing to see him strip up his Bhirt-sleeve, display his well-developed muscle, and say 'That's entire wheat,' or often making nearly his whole meal of bread and butter, take up a slice and look at it with so much affection, and say; 'That's the humming stuff, mamma; that's what I grew up on.' We are all much happier and healthier, and we owe it all to right living." Some Lofty Mountains. Iu all books on geography published during the latter part of the last century and the first two decades of the present it was plainly stated that Mount Chimborazp, a peak of the Ande3 in Old Peru (now Ecuador), with an altitude of 21,420 feet, was the most lofty peak in the world. The reputation of Chimborazo received a severe shock when Mr. Pentland, a British scientist, began his explorations in the Bolivian Andes, where he soon found two peaks, Sorato and Illimani, whose respective altitudes * AAA -1 C% O AAA r 4 were Z4,uuu ana ??,uuu ieei. But while Mr. Pentland was making his historic observations in the Ando3, others with observing miada were exploring the cloud-clapped peaks of the Himalayas and measuring the heights of the principal summits. Forty peaks of that chain were measured, none of which were less than 20,000 feet in height. One of these, Daawalageri (White Mountain) has an altitude of 26,762 feet, and, till the height of Mount Everest was computed, was believed to be the highest mountain peak in the world. Three others in the same range besides Everest and Dhawalageri are higher than the highest mountain in America. They O.K TAQ fnnt <~!!i.imalari. tire; uttvvum*, ?w,? , 26,000 1 eet even, und Gossingthar, 24,740. Add Everest to the four above enumerated and we have five mountain peaks in one chuin, almost in sight of each other, which are all over 24,000 feet high, Everest being the most lofty, its height being reckoned all the way between 29,002 and 29,700. For nearly half a century Mount Everest, or Gauri: sacker (as it is known in Europe and j Asia), wa? thought to be the apex of tho world. In 1881, however, a Captain Law*on, sent out by the British Geographical Society, discovered a peak on the Isle of Papna which is 32,763 feet fti height. He named it Mount Hercules. ?St. Louis Republic. m-n wfw : r ' ' <''' ' '.; % \ j J ., % j? . - ~ ????????? Vlio Heaviest Metal Known. The metal tungsten hitherto has had no use in the arts, and has been merely one of the curiosities of mineralogy. But recently it has been discovered to have some verj useful properties oue of which is that when added to steel it imparts an extraordinary elasticity to it, and or that account is now being used in the manufacture of heavy artillery. It is a rnrimie fart tViot. crime nf the most Slir prising discoveries now being made are connected with warlike purposes,and not in the arts of peace, unless we may look upon the preparations of war as necessary to secure the pcace of the world,and thus properly and usefully advance the practice of the useful arts. This metal is one of the heaviest known, having a specific gravity of 18.60, gold having a gravity of 19.26. It has been a very scarce metal, probably because of the want of any practical use for it, but now it is being ?earched for it is being discovered where it was not expected. It has hitherto been found mostly in Sweden and in the States of Connecticut and Maiue. But recently large deposits of it have been found in New Zealand. It is found in combination with lime, iron, and lead, and this ore has been called wolfram. As it has not so far been of any use in the arts there is at present no established market price for it. The most common ore is that known as wolfram, which appears as a soft yellowish or greenish earth that is very heavy, and contains 79.3 per cent, of tungsten and 20.7 per cent, of oxygen.?New York Times. A Storm in the Forest. The Seattle (Washington) Post Intelligencer publishes the following account of a storm in the Clallam forest as seen by an eye witness: "Large trees, giants of the forest, from three to five feet through, commenced to fall around us without apparent rouse at first, but soon the storm in its fury and graDdeur burst Upon us. The wind was terrific, accompanied by a blinding rain,and trees fell by thousands on the hills and surrounding country, and sounded like a continuous roar of artillery. We were camped in a deep valley behind a point of mountain which broke the wind for a short distance around us, but the tree3 from the hills would almost reach our camp, and the air was full of flying limbs, and we could hear them drop around us, but not being able to see them we could not try to avoid them. " l nus we passed a long uour wauiug for light, now hearing a fearful crash, and uselessly dodging and running in the small place occupied by our camp. Finally daylight broke, and to our pnxious minds the dawn was never more welcome. But what a scene it presented! Nothing ipore grand could be imagined. The storm could be seen sweeping over the mountains, carrying trees by the thousand before it. Accompanied by the rain and terrible roar, it lasted until about 8 a. h." Look Out.

Kesling, and must say it has helped me wonderfully, as I now walk without pain. It is the only medicine that has done me any good, and has been a great benefit in invigorating and building up my system, greatly assisting the liver, kidneys and digestive organs. This is the first recommendation I have ever given a medicine and it affords me pleasure to call the attention of the public to the merits of this wonderful specific. Those who try Swamp-Root have generally first employpd the family physician, or used all the prescriptions within their reach without benefit. As a last resort, when their case has become chronic, the symph\ma mmnlinated and their constitution run down, then they take this remedy, and it is just such cases and cures that have made Swamp-Root famous and given it a world-wide reputation.
