THE VOYAGERS.
Hoi for Dream lam?'? happy harbors!
Who's for I dreamland, by the ferry?
Who's to breast the waves that bind it.
Breast the fairy wavw ami find it.
Rich in flowering groves a uti arbors,
a' the boat's a timerons wherry;
the sailors, vague in feat urea,
i shadowiest of creatures?
Dreamland! Height Dreamland!
f for Dreamland, by the ferry?
rhoSara pale with musing:
sveicrs thal no more are merry;
Maida whose loves were empty anguish;
Lovers that for life most languish;
Patriots passionately choosing
:' AU the old haughty hopes to bary;
Sculptor, painter, bard, musiciar -
With unreached ideals Elysian
These for Dreamland! those for Dream tandi
Straight for Dreamland, by the ferry I
Off they posh, and out they wander.
Faring fleetly toward the very
Midmost heart of that great curly
Cloud that roseate and yet pearly
Haunts the dubious distance yonder
Bound where blossoming sprays of cherry?
AppJeand attsweet trees are vernal
YVtth a sprkigtide pomp eternal!
Hol'for dreamland! Heigh! for Dreamland!
Halcyon Dreamland, by the ferry!

Francis Murphy Treats.
*A short, thick set man, with silver
streaks in Tais bair and Busby mustache,
stood in the rotunda of the Grand Pa
.cificaad talked earnestly to a group of
reporters that encircled him. "Friends,"
be said, **i~ is very warm. Let us go to
my room and have a long drink." This
startled the young men, for the speaker
had never said such sweet words before.
But recovering quickly they followed
the man to his room. Ee nmg for a
beSboy, and when the messenger ar?
rived the host said: "Bring us four nice,
large: sparkling glasses of ice water."
Then, all was quiet. Ton could have

reporter had a different expression on
each side of his face. The host was

Sied Her Nails Every June..
? Neapolitan physician has recently

in one of his female patients. The case
has been prolonged and aggravated, the
peculiarity being in the fact that the

week scarcely elapses before every nail

this curious affection of the nails to a

* The Betel Nut.
B?teT nuts the produce of the Areca
palm, are chiefly used as a masticatory
by the native of the east. They are too
small to be applied to many ornamental
uses, but are occasionally employed by
the turner and wrought into different
kinds of fancy shaped beads for brace

Not Quackery bat Humanity.
The Chicago Tribune, in commenting
; pu Dr. Brinkerhoff s case, says pertinent?
ly and forcibly: "The purpose of an
advertisement is to bring those who want
something in contact with those who
have that something to dispose of. The
physician's advertisement would answer
the same purpose. The patient wants to
be healed. The advertisement would
acquaint him with the doctor who could
heal him. and who had the skill to deal
with his special case. This is not puffery
or quackery. On the other hand, it looks
very much like humanity."
Minister Egan Blamed.
LONDON. Dec. 15.-The correspondent
of the Tines at Santiago de Chili tele?
ga ph* that the entire newspaper press
of Chili places the responsibility for the
d'fteolties DOW existing between Chili
and the United States npon Egan, the
United ?fates Minister. None of the
f spf rs made any attack upon President
Harrison
Allen's Brown Beard.
John Allen, of Mississippi, has
spent the long recess of congress
in enveloping his face in a rich
brown beard. Nobody would ever
recognize the mirth inspiring head of
the humorist behind the disguise, and
it has enabled him to play all sorts
of pranks upon his old associates and
cronies. During the long prelimin?
ary struggle for the speakership
everybody missed the Mississippi
joker, with his inimitable wit, and
many were the attempt? to account
for bis inexplicable tardiness in ar?
riving on the scene of action. When
he arrived at almost the last moment,
his old friends were mystified as
completely as ever. There is a new
member irom his State named Beeman
whom nobody had. ever heard of,
much less seen, and it pleased the
humorist to assume his colleague's
name and made the rounds. The
experiment was a complete success.
Ile visited the headquarters of the
candidates in turn and pledged his
support to each, so that the arrival of
the new congressman was the sensa?
tion of the hour. Not one of the candi?
dates suspected his identity, until he
came toMills,and the keen-eyed Texan
I pierced the disguise at once. Sprin?
ger, who was engaged in building air
castles, discussed the situation with
him for ten minutes, and placed him
well up in the ranks, of the faithful
band of fifty-seven on whose sup?
port he knew lie could surely count,
in spite of the iibes of the opposing
camps ; and after he had taken the
measure of the new reciuit, the Illi?
nois Mark Tapley called General
Palmer in to be introduced and help
to establish the .inexperienced mem?
ber's conviction.
One of the Mississippians most
intimate friends in the bouse is
Owens, of Ohio, who was a brave
Union soldier, who takes great pride
iu his military record* "1 beg your
pardon, said the supposed Beeman
after the introduction had taken place,
"but I did not catch your name 17
''Ohio." "Democrat or republican ?"
continued the questioner. "Demo?
crat, sir," stiffly replied the Ohioan,
amazed at the ignorance of his very
fresh interlocutor. The two engaged
in conversation, in which Allen asked
all manner of foolish questions con?
dering his new duties, which his
friend answered with all the wisdom of
long experience. As they were
about to part, the humorist, struck
with a thought inquired whether his
new friend served in the war. "I
did," was the reply. "On which
side?" "I was an officer in the
Union army," was the proud response.
"Then you wiJI have to excuse me,
sir," said Allen, stiffly, "but I don't
care to have anything further to do
with you. I served four years on the
other side, and I can't get over it."
"But that was a good many years
ago,"said the veteran,in a conciliatory
tone. "I can't help that," was the
reply. "I have always felt very
bitter about it. I liave my prejudices,
and ?omehow I never feel the same
toward a man who served against me
in that war."
The Ohioan bridled up at this and
hinted that he wasn't sure he didn't
harbor prejudices himself, The two
were fast on the way to an acrimoni?
ous dispute, when "Beeman" pushed
back his slouch hat and exposed the
familiar bald pate. "Allen, confound
you," said Owens, "that's what 1 call
a very mean trick," aue he turned on
his heel and walked away, more
angry at discovering his friend's
identity titan he had .been at the
sectional feeling which his supposed
acquaintance had displayed.
The next victim was Senator Coke,
the big, bluff solon from the Loue
Star State, and as typical a Texan as
ever sat in congress. "Beeman"
looked at him curiously.' "Senator
Coke, of Massachusetts ?' he inquired.
"Not by a blamed sight !" retorted
the Texan as he turned away.
But the climax was reached when
?.Doc" Fisher, one of the candidates
for post master of the house, who
handed out the Tupelo statesman's
mail every day since he had been in
congress, came in. "Beeman" was
inti od need, and Fisher gazed at him
curiously. "Ah, yes," he said, "you
are the gentleman Mr. Allen, of Mis
sissipi, is passing himself off for."

Trick Stallions Fight
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Deo 15. 1891.
-There was soa?e excitement among
the animais at Barnum's winter head?
quarters last evening.
! Trainer O'Brien is drilling eight
I s tal HOD s, six of which are said to come
from the royal stables of Austria, Russia
j and Turkey, and the others from Arabia
After an act by all, the Arabians have
I a boxing match, striking each other
I with their padded forefeet,
j As they were being led into the ring
j last night the Arabian horses began
j their fight without signal. Thereupon
[ all of the others joined in the fight
The two Russian hordes are very fierce
and were soou trampling on the others,
while all were bittiug and striking each
other and shriekiog with rage and
pain.
The alarm spread among the other
animals and they added to the confu?
sion and noise. Most of the employes
fled and Mr O'Brien was left alone to
conquer the horses, which be did after
much trouble.
Although some of the horses were
badly cut, none was fatally injured.

instructions on the culture of tobacco,
from the preparation of the seed bed to
the curing of the leaf and preparing it
for market. The book was prepared by
Mr. Rogers to meet the thousands of
demands made upon him by letter for
information on the subject, the inquiries
having become so numerous that be
found it impossible to answer them.
The book contains all the information
necessary to the knowledge of succesful
