•AS
THY DAYS. SO BHAL.L. THY
STRENGTH BE.”
By Mrs. Sigourney.
When adverse winds and waves ari«e,
And in my heart de*>j*oiid« n'-t- si^lit;;
When life*her throng <u' t are reveals,
And weakness o'er my spirit steals;
Grateful I hear the kintl decree.
That "as my day, my strength shall Ik-.”
When, with sad footstep, memory roves,
’Mid smitten joys and buried loves;
When sleep my tearful pillow flies.
And dewy morning drinks my sighs;
Still to thy promise. Lord, I nee.
That “as niy day, my strength shall be.”
On# trial more must yet be passed;
One pang—the keenest and the last;
And when with brow convulsed and pale,
My feeble, quivering heart strings fail.
Redeemer, grant my soul to see,
That "os her days, her strength shall be.”

8TAKTLIXO THE KINO OF BLASTS.
General H. F. Sickles, of the United
States Army, was telling some friends a
short time ago about his first glimpse of
of a mountain lion. He said, “We
were living up in the mountains in
Colorado, and had qui te a herd of cows,
among them one old cow who wore a
beil. The cows had been missing for
several days, and the boys were out
searching, and one afternoon I thought
I would try what I could do. So I
mounted a pony and rode quite a dis- *
tance, when I thought I heard the cow's
bell. I dismounted and started to prowl,
around among the rocks and bushes.
It had been raining during the early j
part of the afternoon, and I had an um- j
Irella. I tied the pony to a tree and
started. After I had gone a short dis
tance, I oaught a glimpse of the cows.
As I started toward them, suddenly they
all lifted their heads, crooked their tails,
and started away on the dead run. I
was just wonderingw hat frightened them,
when I heard a rustling in the bushes
behind me. I turned around, and there,
not ten feet away, was a big mountain
lion, standing on a rook staring at me.
I assure you I never felt so bashful in
all my Ufa I hadn’t a gun, or even a
jack-knifo; and there was that beast
staring and getting ready for a spring !
All at once I thought of my umbreUa,
and as quick as thought I raised that
much-borrowed article and spread it
right in Mr. Lion’s face! He didn’t
stop to examine, bnt made one great
jump clear across a gorge, and when he
lighted gave a yell that shook the hills.
I saw no more of him. When I got
home, the cows were there.”

ORIGIN OF WRIST.
The origin and dite of the first play
ing of whist have of late been much dis
cussed, particularly in England, where
the game receives a degree a;d study
well nigh religious. Edmund Hoyle,
the earhest writer of any note on whist,
commonly called the father of the game,
published his first “Short Treaties”
about 1743, in his seventieth year.
Though educated for the law, he loved
cards passionately, and was so skillful a
player that he used to receive a guinea
a lesson for teaching different games.
He spent his days and nights at the
card table, which so agreed with him
that he lived to be ninety-seven. Whist
is supposed to be a development of
trump or triumph, played in England
at least as early as the reign as Henry
VIII. Tramp is mentioned in a ser
mon by Latimer, the Sunday before
Christmas (1529, and by Shakespeare
punning on the word triumph, in "An
tony and Cleopatra.” Whist is not
named by any writer of the Elizabethan
era. The earliest reference to whist is
in 1021, in the poems of John Taylor,
the water poet In the first edition of
Cotton’s “ Complete Gamester ” (1072),
no allusion is made to whist, but in the
second edition, issued six years later, it
is mentioned as a game “ commonly
known in England.” Cotton’s saying
that the game geto its name from the
silence observed iu playing it, although
generally accepted, is by many regarded
as incon ect The proper name is proba
bly whisk.
One night a young doctor of Newton
Center, Iowa, escorted the daughter of a
prominent and wealthy citizen to church.
The father of the girl had forbidden her
to accompany the young man. When
church was out the father lay in wait
behind a tree for his daughter’s com
panion and jumped out upon him as he
passed. He seized the young man by
the throat and tore his collar off and the
bosom out of his shirt. The old gen
tleman then ran away. The doctor
went on home with the young lady as
though nothing had happened. When
she entered the house her father took
her to the parlor, and pointing to the
doctor’s shirt bosom, which be had
tacked to the wall, said : “I intend to
have it framed.” On Monday the doctor
saw the old gentleman passing his office.
The story of the shirt bosom was already
known about the village. The young
man rushed out, dragged his Sunday
night assailant into his office, and com
pelled him to take off his white shirk
Attaching to it this placard: “A con
tribution for a coward, ” he fastened the
garment to a pole and hung it out of his
office window. Since then the father of
the young lady has apologized to the
doctor and invited him to call on his
daughter as often as he pleases.
WHY SHE WAS LOVED.
It is related of Mme. De Circourt, at
one time a reigning belle in Paris
society, that her mother once said to her :
“My poor child, you are too ugly for
any one ever to fall in love with you.”
From this time Mme. De Circourt began
to be very kind to the pauper children
of the village, the servants of the house
hold, and even the birds that hopped
about the garden walks. She was al
ways distressed if she happened to be
unable to render a service. This good
will toward everybody made her the idol
of the city. Though he'* complexior
was sallow, her gray eyes small and
sunken, yet she held in devotion to her
the greatest men of her time. Her un
failing interest in otLefs made her, it is
said, perfectly irresistible.
