' THE D/kY'3 WORK.
Oo thy day's work, my dear, ^
rhoogh fast and dark the clouds are drifting
near,
though time has little left for hope and very
much for fear.
Do thy day's work, though now
The band must falter and the head mod
V--?And
far above the falling foot shows the
-?hnhf anonntain hrsa- '*
Yet there is left as, ,
Who on the valley's verge stand trembling
thus,
A light that lies far in the west?soft, faint,
but luminous.
tVe can give kindly speech.
And ready, helping hands to all and each, 1
And patience, to the young around, by
smiling silence teach.
We can give gentle thought,
And charity, by life's long lessons taught.
And wisdom, from old faults lived down, byi
toil aud failure wrought.
We can give love unmarred
My Hellish snntch of happiness, unjarred
By the keen arms of power or Joy that make*
you cold and hard.
And if gay hearts reject
The gifts we hold?would fain fare on unchecked
On the bright roads that scarcity yield all
that young eyes expeot?
Why, do thy day's work still,
The calm, deep founts of love are slow to
chill;
And heaven may yet the harvest yield, the
work-worn hands to Oil.

^ HE story of that
1 hangs ft t?!o, and
rather a long one.

he divided between Uncle Tom's house
in tho city and Aunt Lizzie's in the
country. I was alwnys with Aunt
L;zzie in the summer, and it was whilo
on a visit to her that it happened.
Kho lived quite in tho mountains, on a
Inrgo farm two miles from tho railway
station, and at. least twenty from town.
The country was thinly settled, the farms
all being large, with few exceptions, ami
ro bad no near neighbors besides the
tenants oil the place. My aunt, an
elderly woman in delicate health, made
no attempt to keep up anything except
the garden and the grounds around tho
house; sho kept only two regular servants,
a girl, tho daughter of ono of the
colored tenants, who wont homo every
night, and a half-grown hoy who slept
in an outhouse.
The house was an old-fashioned brick
olio with a buscuicut, aud cuuolslcd ul ?
hall, entered from a small front porch, a
room on cither side, and an ell with two
rooms running back from it and opeuing

f>ame arrangement was repeated; my
rouin whs the front room upstairs over
the parlor, while my auut's was downstairs
in the ell, with a Bmall, cuclosed
stairway running from it into the room
above, in which hor son, my cousiu
James, generally slept. But at the time
of which i speak James had been away
for a week, and was not expected back
for several days, so that at night there
was no one in the house but my aunt aud
myself. Neither of us was timid, and
such n tiling as robbery was so unheald
of that very ticqucntly the back dcors
were not even fastened by night, and nc
one ever thought of putting away too
silver spoons and forks, nor the old silver
teapot when night came. Coining
from the city, as I did, it seemed to me
rather careless, for I knew how caieful
Uncle 'loin's wife was about her silver

to think she was right, although my
floor was always bolted at night and 1
saw that tlie front floor was fastened.
Uncle had scut tne a check several
days before the day of which I am going
to tell you, and although not for a very
large amount, it was larger than utual,
f<>r 1 was going to nay a visit to some
friends in L. before going back homo.
On that never-to-be-forgotten day 1
rode over to the station to get my check
ruined, for 1 needed sotuo ready money
before going away. The postmaster and
ticket agent was a sort of general
factotum, and kept a store of general
inetchandise, as well as attending to his
other business. He always cashed my
checks for me, and did so on that day as
usual. As he county oia an l
tn0 stWrK ana 1 noticed his
eyes dwell particularly on the money,
and on the oi imor.d rings which sparkleo
on the fingers of my ungloved hand, my
glove having been drawn off to indorst
the check. The rings were my mother's, i
! have always worn them, nud still do
so.
f put the money carefully inside my
1 r.bit, and mounting my horse, rode oil
without tiiiiikinu again of the man, an
j roi> d ly would never have given him
another thought if. iust us we rose from
li e dinner table. a tramp bn<i not wnlkc<mi
at the front gate and that traiu^
I roved to be the man I hud seen at tin
rtution. I wondered ho'.v it had happened
that lie had taken to the highw ay
instead of the railway track, but said
nothing us 1 obeyed auntie's injunction
to give him some dinner. Aunt had a
profound sympathy for any one who
might be hungry and had had too little
experience with tramps to be anything
but benign and charitable where they
were concerned.
1 had an uneasy consciousness thn>
the man hud seen my money, and wished
it had becu otherwise, but he proved
quite inoffensive, notwithstanding hi?
looks, and nfter thanking me politely
enough for his dinner, walked off up the
load. Consequently by night I had for
gotten all about the matter, though I did
lake care to set that the buck door wa?
fastened as well as the front, which half
the 'iine was foigotten.
Y"ii must remember that fastening
lint back door shut me off entirely from
the rest of the house, as auotie's room
was in the ell opening on the porch
downstair*, while mine was upstair* in
front.
I undressed, went to bed, and slept
quietly until some time in the night,
when 1 was awakened by the furioui
yelping of ''Frisk," a littlo black an<]
tun torrier, which was in the habit o
steslingly slyly under th* ?!: lU IU<
ball downstairs, before the door wai
shut, in order to spend the night on il
when atl was quiet; I bad forgotten tc
look for him, and had fastened htm in.
Then J heard voices outside of my door,
ruen's voices, and some one said :
"Confound that cur I he would raise
tho dond; tho trirl must be awake."
The head of my bed was just at the
door, and I heard distinctly. I rat up
in bed, instantly, my heart beating
loudly, so loudly, that it seemed to me
I could heat it, ''or the unexpected bad
happened, and these were certainly
burglars. My first thought was for
something to pul against tlio do or, but
tliero was nothing 1 coul'l move except
a small tabic full of books, which whs
on the other side of tlie door froin the
bed. I knew it would uot bo much
hindrance, but concluded that the over*
turning of the table and the books, in
case the door was opened, might embarrass
and delay them for a few niin.tcs;
being top heavy, it was certain to
overturn if pressed against.
Tho knob was turned as I uiovod it,
and the door shaken heavily from the
outside.
"Open the door,'' said a rough voice,
"or I'll kick it down,''suiting the action
to tho word by a vigorous kick.
Another voice said:
"Hand out that money and them
diamonds, little gal, and wc won't hurt
you."
How iny courage was screwed up I
don't know, for I was too frightened to
speak, but I remembered a little pistol
which had been givcu me, and which,
being very pretty, I kept lying on my
bureau, it was so small as to be nlmoat
a toy, but it carried ono good-sized
cartridge. 1 knew where to put my
hand on it in tho dark and seizing it, 1
placed it against tho door panel, just
where the voico seemed to be, and tired.
There was a loud oath aud a cry, and
a voice exclaimed:
"Tho little vixen has hit moi jnst
let mo get at her and I'll twi9t her
neck," while the kicking aud shaking
were renewed so violontly that I knew
the door could not possibly hold out
mnny irinutcs. I did not wait for it to
hurst opcu, but rushed to the front window,
and threw open tho blinds; tho
night was a bright, moonlight one, and
looking out I could see that ono blind ot
the parlor window below was open, and
the top not so far below that my f sot
could not reach it while holding to the
window sill above.
1 swung myself out, holding on to my
own blind as 1 did so, and after several
efforts steadied myself on tho lower
blind. 1 d ired not let go, hut swung
there for a momvr.t, sick and dizzy.
Then I saw that tho edge of the roof
nrrr ll.n ...no ....I ........ ...... t i
. .... .... * > *? ??"?'
beyond the ? Ji?o ??f the blind when wide
open, and up tho aide of the porch wero
stout, wooden strips, nailed across to
support a honeysuckle, which had been
crowing (here so munv voars that. its
stein was almost as large as inar or a
small tree.
I don't know how 1 ever did it; iD
the day time, and in cold blood, it would
have been impossible for mo to do it
again, but I managed to catch tho
turned up edgo of the tin gutter around
the porch, aud swing myself so that my
feet caught on one of tho supports to the
honeysuckle, and, step by step, managed
to clumber down. As the ground was
reached there was a crash upstairs, tho
door having given way, and, with it,
down came the tabic and hooka.
I waited to hear no moro, but, half
crazed with fright, tlew across tho lawn
towards the side fence, a few yards beyond
which stood the house of one of
the tenants. In order to get to it 1 had
to leave the shelter of the trees and come
out into the bright moonlight, toy white
night-dress making me conspicuous as I
did so.
There were two windows to my room,
one on the side as well as ono in front,
(Kit), ^'Yfiero she goes; shoot her down
before she rouses the country on us."
There was tho sound of a shot, and I
felt something like a cut on my arm,
which, all at. once, became wet. I did
not realize that I was shot, but rushed
on over the grass in my bare feet, tumbl
ing over the fence in some sort of
fashion, and finally falling against the
window of the tenaut's house I cried
with all my strength :
"Oh, Mr. Jones! save ine, save me!"
Fortunately the bouse was low to the
ground, and the windows within easy
reach, and I fell with such force against
the bedroom window that a pane of gins:1
was broken and both Mr. and Mrs. Joned
awakened.
I remember nothing more until I
woke to find myself on the lounge in
Mrs. Jones's room, while she stood by

Extraction of Perfumes.
Six methods of extracting perfumes
are known: The first is expression, bj
means of a special press, ^hich is appli
cable without too great loss to fruit
skins rich in essential oils, such as orange
and citron peel, previously grated. An
other method is that of distillation
whieh consists in heating flowers witt
water in a boiler. The essential oil L
volatilised and is condeused with the
rapur ui nawi iu a nuiai au-.i a *-?viuu
tioe receiver. The water usually goos t<
the bottom and the oil floats. The oils
ot neroli, rose, patchouli, geranium, lav
ender, caraway, etc., arc obtained ii
thin way. The process is not applica
ble to the delicate perfumes of tho mig
nonette and the violet; and for them re
course is hau to maceration of thi
flowers in animal fats or mineral oils
which have the property of absorbinj
odorous substances, and are then washei
in alcohol. The flowers are usualb
heated in the fat or tho oil for a variab!
number of hours. For perfumes whic!
can not endure a high temperature th
petals are placed between two frames o
glass coated with fat. This is the pro
cess of enfleurage. The pneumatic pro
reas- which consists in causioz a curren
absorbed by coatings of lard on glaa
plates, appears not to have given satis
factory results. Another process con
slsts in dissolving perfumes iu very vola
tile liquids like sulphuret of carbon
chloroform; naphtha, eluer, or chloridi
of methyl, and volatilizing tho solvents,
which can be done at a low temperature
in a vacuum. The last method bai
given very satisfactory results in the ex
treme delicacy and great accuracy of it!
