AFTERNOON.
BY 0. C. DAWSON.
Sing, my heart, acheerful song,
Though the shadows, growing long.
Show the sun descending;
Life hath been a joyous day—
Faith and love shall smooth the way
To a happy ending;
Sing, my heart, a song of peace
While the shadows still increase.
Hail, oh heart! the calmer days—
Greet the cooler, milder rays
Of the sun descending ;
If old age should come apace, ’
Welcome it with gentle grace,
Patient wait the ending ,
Sing. my heart, a song of peace,
While the shadows still increase.
From the Advocate and Guardian.
Model Husbands.
Among a number of “ Extracts from Let-
ters” in the Advocate and Guardian-some
months since, I was very much struck with
the heading of a short article, called “A
Model Husband,” in which your correspond-
ent says, “ Inclosed you will find a dollar for
my paper. Ilong to do something to aid
. you materially, but while I have the will I
:havc not the way. My husband, I think,
‘ wishes to be a model husband, but he cannot
understand why a woman should want
money, when she is comfortably clothed and
fed, and has the reading of two political pa-
pers, one Masonic and one on agriculture.
Five dollars a year has been my average al—
lowance of money ever since I was marricr ,”
85c.
Now I wish this matter could be brought
to the minds of “ model husbands ” a little
oftener than it is, in public papers. I can
cite many instances which will corroborate
the words of your correspondent, as I am
often called upon to assist in raising money
for different charities, and for dcfraying ex-
penses for necessary church work. .
One season I was on a committee to pro-
cure help for cleaning the church, and it was
understood that each pew-holder should
share the expense incurred. After the work
was done. loffcred to take the subscription
list myself to some families. My first call
was on a lady who lived in one of the most
elegant houses in the village, where every-
thing denoted wealth and luxury. I said I
wanted half a dollar only, as this lady’s share
toward paying for the work that had been
done. The answer was, “Why, Mrs. P., I
have not a half dollar in the world. I have
everything I need ; my husband pays all the
bills without saying a word, but he says he
cannot see what I can do with money. He
is away now from home, and will not be
back for several days. But stop a moment, I
will borrow it of Nettie, the nurse, and make
itright when Mr. L. comes back.” She went
out and soon returned with the half dollar,
saying, with tears in her eyes, “I have all I
need for food and raiment, but I have not as
much money at my disposal as my humblest
servant.”
On another occasion I went on a similar
errand to another lady, who also had a
beautiful home, and whose husband is in
good circumstances, but a home in which
the most rigid economy is always practiced.
I made known my errand, I wanted the lady
to give me a dollar to pay for some necessary
expenses incurred in church work. She said,
“ A dollar did you say, Mrs. R? Is not that
a' good deal? I'll see if I can make the
change." She was gone from the room some
time. When she came back I found she had
“made the change," indeed. “This is my
milk money,” she said, “and it is all the
' spare change I ever have. Husband pays all
the bills, but seems to think women have no
use for money. We keep two cows, as our
family is large, and sometimes I sell milk,
and he lets me keep that money; ” and she
counted out the dollar in teas and fives and
single pennies, and handed it to me, seeming-
ly thankful and glad to give it, though it
was her closely-boarded “ milk money,” and
> all she had. .
Not long ago I passedtwo or three weeks
with friends of mine,where the same peculiar
liberality was practiced by a “ model hus-
band.” Though it is not proper “to tell
tales out of school,” I cannot refrain from
speaking of my observations at this time.
The lady of the house at the time of her
marriage had a pretty little property, which
at her husband’s suggestion was invested in
buying and furnishing a nice city home,
which of course was a very comfortable thing
to do. But the property stood in the hue-
band's name, and she had not one cent of
her own remaining in her hands. It never
entered his head that his wife was entitled
to any acknowledgment for the money, or
that any offset should be made to her for
giving up everything. At the time of my
visit, the husband held onepf‘the :most lu-
crative offices in the State, and had a fine
salary, paid all the bills, educated his chil-
dren,'and nothing seemed to be wanting in
the way of food or clothing, or comforts of
any kind; but his wife had'literally not one
single cent at her own disposal. I have
heard her say, “ Mr. F., please give me some
money for ear fare this morning, I am going
out on errands.” “ How much do you want,
Mary?” he would say. “Is fifty cents
enough? It is better to buy a half dollar’s
worth of tickets at a time; ” and with great
deliberation take out from a well filled pocket
book a whole fifty cent piece, and hand it to
his wife with as self-satisfied an air as if it
had been fifty dollars.
One morning I heard her say, “ Mr. F.,
please hand me twenty-five cents; I had not
money enough to pay the washerw‘oman last
night.” The model husband handed out the
twenty-five cents without a murmur. I did
not say a word, for I knew it was not my
place. Perhaps the wife was to blame for
not speaking more freely of what she wanted,
, but it did seem to me as if a man, who had
any manhood in him, ought to be unwilling
to dole out his money, cent by cent, to his
wife as if she were a beggar.
A spirited friend of mine once said to me,
“ One of the conditions which I would .not
take a negative to, when I accepted my
husband, vfiis this: I said to him, ‘ If we are
ever married, I want you to keep me in-
formed how your business matters stand, so
that I may know how much we ought to
economize. I can live on very little, and I
can spend a good deal; but abovegall things
1 am not willing to have money dealt out to
me as your father always has done to your
mother, by the dollar or the half dollar at a
time, just as she asked for it. I never have
seen him give her one single cent beyond the-
present demand, and I do not believe she
ever had five dollars of her own in her purse
at one time. I want to feel that I have a
right to spend your money, and that you
onght to trust me. I am sure I shall take
the same interest in doing the best I can in
the expenditure, if you will only keep me
informed how far I may go.’ " .
I know of so many ladies who would’glad—
ly and most freely give money to aid in be-
nevolent institutions, as well as to help the
poor about them, and would use all possible
discretion in so doing, but who never have a
dollar they can call their own, the model
husband depriving the wife even of the priv-
ilege of putting money on the contribution
plate in church. “ He can do it, as he sits
nearest the aisle.”
Great‘injustice is done to women by these
model husbands in another way, which often
proves of great importance. He has always
held the purse, paid the bills, kept the ac-
counts, and in case of his death, his widow
is perfectly helpless. She knows nothing

about business, how can she? She knows
nothing of the expenses of a family, or of
the value of money. The estate must be put
in a lawyer’s hands to be settled, and she
never knows whether she has received even
one quarter of what are her just dues.
In many cases. I think,if the husband were
kindly spoken to by the wife, he might see
things in a different light, and trust her judg-
ment. But a woman naturally feels great
delicacy in the early days of her married life,
in pressing such claims upon her husband,
and puts it off from year to year, and he
cannot see but she thrives very well without
“ spending money.” But of her many heart-
aches he knows nothing.
I have said enough on this subject at pres-
ent. I hope every word may set some hus-
band to thinking a little, and that your
most noble and excellent charity. with many
' others equally deserving, may receive gener-
ous donations from bands which have longed
to help you, but which have heretofore, per-
haps ignorantly withhold. o. n. 1:. r.
A Cl ty Underground.
During a visit. to Nottingham his royal
highness Prince Leopold, Duke of Albany,
K. G., spent a day in the Dukeries, so called
frbm the residence of five noblemcn being
all within a few miles of each other. The
most remarkable of these, situated in the
very heart, of Sherwood forest is Welbeck
(Notes), the seat of the Duke of Portland.
The late duke was an extraordinary noble-
man. He lived, iu a large measure, the life
of a recluse, devoting his energies to the
construction of remarkable underground.
works. which are to this day the marvel and
the mystery of the Dukerics, and combine to
make Welbeck the most wonderful noble-
man’s mansion in England. On the occasion
of the prince’s visit only one representative
of the press was admitted, and an opportun-
ity was given of seeing several of the mar-
velous tunnels, underground apartments,
etc., which have been closed against the
public up to this time. The subterranean
picture gallery was the first visited by the
prince. It was built as a riding house in
1623 by the then duke of Newcastle. The
late duke converted it into a picture gallery,
and erected a riding house in another part of
the grounds. The picture gallery is 183 feet
long, 50 feet high and 40 feet wide. The
floor is polished oak, asis the woodwork of
the roof, which is in the style of Westmins-
ter hall. Suspended in line from the princi-
pals of the roof are four magnificent cut glass
chandeliers, weighing nearly a ton each ;;five
sunlights, five feet in diameter, are also hung
from the ridge centre of the roof. From the
hammer beams are suspended 28 smaller cut
glass chandeliers and from the sides of the
wall sprang 63 cut glass brackets, with sil—
vered backs.
The room is paneled about foor feet six
inches high, and above that aline of silvered
glass about three feet deep with cut glass
mouldings top and bottom, surrounds the
walls.- In this room there are nearly 2,000
gaslights. The lobby to it is 12 feet long by
14 high. The inner doors opening into the
picture gallery are entirely covered with
silvered plate glass, as are also the pillars on
each side and the cornice above the doors.
The upper part of the cornice above the
doors is tastefully fcstooned with cut glass
supported by plated pillars. 0n the roof
two turrets have been erected, in one of
which is fixed a remarkable clock. It is
made from the hardest gun metal, and shows
the time on four illuminated opal diols, up-
ward of five;fcet each in diameter striking
the hours, on a 500 weight bell, and chiming
“Cambridge quarters”.on four smaller bells,
repeating the hour after the first, second,
and third quarters, and repeating again the
“Cambridge chimes,” together with the hour
after the fourth quarter. In the other tur-
ret there is another time-piece recording the
time on two illuminated dials, about two
feet each in diameter, and driving onlycal-
endars, showing the month, the day of the
week and the moon’s age and equation of
time on two separate dials.
Under this room are vast wine cellars,
with bins of cast iron. The cellars are con-
nected with the abbey by subterranean pass-
ages. The kitchen is one of the “shows”
of Welbeck. A railway underground was
constructed by the late duke, by means of
which the dinners were conveyed to the
dining room. When he dined his dishes
came along by rail, and were placed auto-
matically on the table and removed in the
same fashion on a signal being given. In the
picture :gallery, the library, and similar
apartments there was but little to examine
the art treasures mainly collected by the late
duke, including the Portland miniatures,
containing works by Hillard, the Olivers,
(Isaac and Peter), S. Cooper, Gibson,
Flatman, sr., etc., the fine paintings by
Raphael, Vandykc, Rembrandt, Guyders,
Gaspar, Poussin, Ruysdacl, Claude Lorraine,
Titian, Rubens, Holbein, Sir Joshua Rey-
nolds, etc. ; the manuscript, including letters
by Charles II, Oliver Cromwell; 'a MS. ac-
count of the regalia, jeWels and plate of
Henry_VIlI., when in the custody of Sir
Henry Wyatt. The latter is in its original
parchment binding, and is signed repeatedly
by the king.
At Welbeck the prince saw the first sub-
terranean library ever constructed. It is
parallel with the picture gallery and of the
same length, 80 feet wide and 14 feet high.
It is built on arches, the walls doubled and
protected with Seyssell asphalt to ensure
dryness. Folding doors divide it into three
rooms, which can be thrown into one when
desired. The roof, which is level with the
surface of the park, is supported with iron
girders. 0n the south side there is a road-
way about 18 feet wide, and the room is
lighted by 15 windows on the side, as well
as by 24 skylights on the top. Red crimson
silk, specially made in Paris for the purpose,
is employed to soften the light as it passes
in at the top. - At the east end of the library
is the anteroom, 00 feet long by 43 feet wide.
It opens into the library through folding
doors 10 feet wide. The total length of li-
brary and anteroom is 256 feet, and these
rooms are lighted at night by gas with 18
sunlights, containing some 1,200 burners.
At the west side of.the library is a sub-
terranean church, 174 feet long and 60.feet
wide. All these are connected with the
house by underground passages. A remark-
able erection is the riding house. built at the
terminus of the great subterranean roadway.
It is 353 feet long, 102 feet wide and 51 feet
high. On each side of this building are 20
cast iron columns, and four at each end. A
circle of gas jets, three feet six inches in
diameter, surrounds the capital of each
column, and each circle is festooucd with
beautiful cut glass. A two inch gas pipe
with jets also surrounds the entire building
at about_25 feet from the ground, and is at-
tached to the columns. There are about
8,000 gaslights in this riding house. The
roof is in three divisions, the‘ centre one be.
ing circular and made of iron and glass of
which it contains about 28,000 feet, and the
two at the side are made of pitch pine, hip-
ped and covered with hopper rails. On a
recent visit paid by the writer a fine crop of ~
mushroons were seen pushing their white
heads avovc the tar which forms the floor.
Other interesting parts were inspected by
the prince, including the hunting stables,
which contain stalls for 96 horses, and are
fitted with Mipton’s enconstic tiles, the doors
and mangers finished in polished brass, the
dairy, lined with glazed tiles and kept cool
by an ever-playing water jet in the centre;
the timber yards where the shaIting works
under the door, and the machinery is driven
by asteam engine of 35 horse power; the
tan gallop, for the exercise of horses in win-
ter or bad weather. in the form of a glass
arcade. 1,270 feet long, and containg upward
of 64,000 feet; the hot house, 860 feet in
length; the glass covered south wall and
Wire-trellised arcade for the growing of de-
sert pears and apples, each of them 700 ,feet
in length.
One of the greatest of all the works in-
spected by the prince was the subterranean
roadway through a portion of the park and
under the lake, in place of an ancient high-
way which cxisted before it. It is arched
with bricks and lighted from the'top by
circular lights of polished plate glass one
half inches thick and 12 yards apart, with
intermediate gaslights, which are used night
and day to ensure safety, to passengers
through it. The entrance to this roadway,
which is of wrought stone, is opposite the
south lodge, on the Workshop manor estate,
and it terminates at the new buildings, near
Holbcck, a distance of 1;} miles. Gas is
supplied to the subterranean roadways,
stables, ofiiccs, etc., from extensive works,
erected near the new Workshop road. Loss
by fire was carefully guarded against by the
late duke. Water towers and underground
cisterns around the abbey provide ample
storage for water, and nearly every room is
supplied with hydrants and other me ans of .
apylying without delay the means thus
provided. Steam fire engines and othea eu-
gincs are kept in readiness. It may be added
that there are 50 longes on the estate; each
costing over £3,000. All the out-houses
connected with them are underground,bcing
lighted and ventilated by large circular plate
glass lights. The late duke insisted on hav-
ing all the outbouscs, including piggeries,
cowsheds, etc., out of sight. The general
public may be interested to know that there
is a prospect of Welbeck, which has been a
mystery and a marvel for ycers, and zeal-
ously guarded against intrusion, being opened
to the public as one of the “show houses of
the country. The late duke of Portland is
believed to have spent several millions of
money on underground works alone.

some THINGS non nousnwrvns TO PUT IN
SCRAP-BOOKS. '
A pcultice of fresh tea leaves moistened
with water, will cure a stye on the eyelid.
For earache, dissolve assafoetida in water ;
warm a few drops and drop in the car, then
cork the ear with wool.
The true physiological way of treating
burns or scalds is to at once exclude the air,
with cotton batting, flour, scraped potato, or
anything that is handiest.
Use fresh“ water. Water which has stood
in an open dish over night should not be used
for cooking or drinking, as it will have ab-
sorbed many foul gases.
Mix a little carbonite of soda with the
water in which flowers are immersed, and it
will preserve them for a fortnight. Common
salpetrc is also a very good preservative.
Take a new flower pot, wash it clean, wrap
in a wet cloth and set over butter, will keep
it as hard as if _on ice. Milk, if put into an
earthern can, or even a tin one, will keep
sweet for a long time, if well wrapped in a
wet cloth. _
Common soda is excellent for scouring tin,
as it will not scratch the tin and will make it
look like new. Apply with a piece of moist-
ened newspaper and polish with a dry piece.
Wood ashes are a good substitute.
To cure bunions, use pulverized saltpetre
and sweet oil. Obtain at a druggist‘s five or
six cents’ worth of saltpetre; put into a bot-
tle with sufficient olive oil to dissolve it,shake
up well, and rub the inflamed joints night
and morning, and more frequently if painful.
Flies may be effectually disposed of without
the use of poison. Take half a teaspoonful
of black pepper in powder, one teaspoonful
of brown sugar,and'one teaspoonful of cream.
Mix them well together and place them in a
room on a plate where flies are troublesome
and they will very soon disappear.
Red ants may be banished from a pantry
or store-room by strewing the shelves with a
small quantity of cloves either whole or
ground. The cloves should be renewed oc-
casionally, as after a time they lose their
strength and efficacy.
The following drink for relieving sickness
of the stomach is said to be very. palatable
and agreeable: Beat up one egg very well,
say for twenty minutes, then add fresh milk
one pint water, one pint, sugar to make it
palatable; boil, and let it cool ; drink when
cold. If it becomes curds and whey it is use-
less.
According to La France Medicale borax
has been employed with advantage in cases
of hoarseness and aphonia occurring
suddenly from. the action of cold. The
remedy is recommended to singers and
orators whose voices suddenly become lost,
but which by these means can be recovered
instantly. A little piece of borax the size
of a pen is to be slowly dissolved in the
mouth ten minutes before singing or speak-
ing. The remedy provokes an abundant sc-
cretion of saliva which moistens the mouth
and throat. The local action of the borax
should be aided by an equal dose of nitrate
of potassium, taken in warm solution before
going to bed.
A thorough qualified medical man has re-
cently, in the course of his practice, come
upon what he believes and uses as a specific
remedy for smallpox. The remedy is the
bitartrate of potash, the common cream of
tartar of the drug store ; two ounces dissolv-
ed in boiling water, with the juice of a
lemon and sugar added. Let the patient
drink as much as he likes, but not less than
a wine glassful every hour. In some of his
cases this medicine has exhibited the most
remarkable curative effects. It will purge,
but as it is perfectly harmless this will not
matter; and it does not appear to be the
cause of cure, the remedy acting specifically
on-' ' virus, the pustules collapsing, leaving
1: its, and a perfect cure following in a
[rt time.
All kinds of burns, scalds, and sunburns,
are almost immediately relieved by the appli-
cation of a solution of soda to the burnt sur-
face. It must be remembered that dry soda
will not do unless it is surrounded with a
cloth moist enough to dissolve it._ This
method of sprinkling it on and covering it
with a wet cloth is often the very best.
But it is sufficient to wash the wound re-
peatedly with a strong solution. It would
be well to keep a bottle of it always on hand
made so strong that more or less settles on
the bottom. This'is What is called a satu-
rated solution, aud really such a solution as
this is formed when the dry soda is sprinkled
on and covered with a moistened cloth. It
is thought by some that the pain of a burn is
caused by the hardening of the albumen and
relieves the pressure. Others think that the
burn generates an acrid acid, which the soda
neutralizes.
A Scrap of Paper.
A friend of mine said to me yesterday:
f‘Ail the money you ever handled couldn’t
buy that little piece of paper.”
With that he handed a manifold soiled
scrapbu which I could at first see nothing.
At length I deciphcrod in rude disjointed
letters the two words, “dear papa.” He had
discovered it in the play-house of his little
daughter who died only a few days ago.
Some time when, in the midst of play, her
little heart had turned toward him she had
scrawled tliose two words—and then having
born testimony of her love, threw the paper
away—Atlanta Constitution

railroad managers:
The Tribune has had Mr.Vanderbilt inter-
viewed and comments in a free way upon
the raiIWay kings views and remarks, as fol-
lows:
Railroad Kings in Trouble.
Mr. Vanderbilt’s remarks reported in the
Tribune yesterday have an important hear-
ing upon a great political question. For
the first time, we believe, Mr. Vanderbilt
leans to the idea that the disputes between
railroads may have to be settled by public
authority. True, he does not in terms ask
interference by the Government. “The city,
the business men," should decide, he sug-
gests. But the terms of his statement, if it
is to be rigidly construed, cannot logically
end anywhere, but no regulation by the
Government. For he says, “I have studied
this railroadimatter pretty thoroughly, and I
am not sure that the railroad managers
should settle this question of differential
rates between the different cities on the
seaboard. Of course the railroads are vastly
interested in the settlement of these rates,
but what affects us affects the whole com-
munity." The business men of a few towns
The civic
authoritites of four cities are not the whole
community. Whatever else Mr. Vanderbilt
meant, he certainly did not mean that the
question should be left to the Common
Councils of New York, Boston, Philadelpia
and Baltimore. The whole community is
newhere represented except at Washington.
If Mr. Vanderbilt invokes any restraining or
regulating :power whatever, he really in-
vokes the power of the United States Gov-
erument. _
Certainly he seems in the mood to call for
interposition from some quarter. He admits
that there is no doubt the railroad war is a
very foolish thing” and adds gloomily, “At
any rate the railroads cannot prolong the
fight forever; they are paying heavily
enough for it now.” If they “cannot"
prolong the fight forever, it is because they
are carrying for the present at ruinous rates.
But Mr. Vanderbilt professes that he sees no
chance of' of settlement by the railroads
themselves: For he says of himself and other
“We have done what
we could with the railroads, and the question
Is not decided. Why Ishould not the com-
munity, which has a deep ,interest in it have
a voice determining this problem '1’” If this is
not a confession that railroads cannot agree,
and yet are sure to be ruined unless they
agree, what is it ? If it is not meant as a plea
for interference by the General Government
to save the railroads from themselves, at any
rate it will be so understood and quoted in
Congress within the next thirty days.
Now “the community” does not altogether
share the railroads feeling in this matter.
It does not look upon low rates with horror.
It remembers th it rates may be so low that
the roads cannot earn 8 per cent. on all their
nominal stock, and yet may be high enough
to afford a handsome interest on all the cap-
ital actually invested in the roads. More-
over “thc community” regards with much
satisfaction the reduction of nearly 50 per
cent. in average freight rates during the past
ten years, and is perfectly aware of the fact
that this reduction has been brought about
in every instance by quarrels and wrangles
among the railroads themselves. Many
other improvements, of incalculable value
to the public, have been brought about in the
same way. At this hour fast trains between
New York and Chicago are bearing passen-
gers and mails over Mr. Vanderbilt's own
roads at a rate of speed which would never
have been adopted had it not been pushed
into the step by rivalry with another road.
Observing all that it has gained by war
among the railroads, the public fails to see
why it should interfere for the purpose of
preventing wars. ’
Indeed, “the community,” if it interferes
at all, is quite likely to interfere in a man-
ner which railroad men will consider par-
ticularly foolish and unjust. We can judge
in some measure what, as at present repre-
sented, the community would do by the
measures which are already pending. For
example, it would be likely to put a stop to
the practice of charging higher rates for lo-
cal than for through freight; or higher rates
where there is no competition with water
routes than Where there is such competition.
Dressing for a. Photograph.
SOIDETIIING THAT WILL INTEREST EVERYBODY.
“ The question is often asked,” said an ex-
perienced photographer, “why actors and ac-
tresses take the most pleasing pictures. It is
because they study the principles of art and
good taste in their profession, and under-
stand how to dress. Moreover, they usually
bring a selection of veils, flowers, curls,
braids, laces, and sometimes costumes, to
give the photographer a choice of accesso-
ries. They come when they are wholly at
leisure, and are not flustered. A red face
takes black, and they know it. Then they
do not load themselves down with gewgaws
and haberdashcrics, to show all that they
have got in worldly goods. Few persons
know how to dress for a picture like an ac-
tress. The best materials for ladies to wear
when about to sit for a photograph are such
as will fold or drape nicely, like reps, wln-
ceys, poplins, satins and silks. Lavender
lilac, sky-blue, purple and French blue take
very light, and are worse for a picture than
pure white. Corn color and salmon are bet-
ter. China pink, rose pink, dark purple,
pure yellow, Mazarine blue, navy blue,
fawn color, Quaker color, dove color,
ashes of roses and stone color show a pretty
gray in the photograph. Scarlet, claret, gar-
net, sea green, light orange, leather colorL
light Bismarck, and slate color take still
darker, and are excellent colors to photo-
graph. Cherry, wine color. light apple green,
Metternich green, dark apple green, bottle
green, dark orange, golden and red brown,
show nearly the same agreeable color in the
picture. A black silk always looks well, and
it takes well if not bedecked with ribbons
and laces that will take white. Dark Bis-
marck and snuff brown usually take blacker
than a black silk or satin, and are not easy to
drape. A silk, because it has more gloss
and reflects more light, usually takes lighter
than nwoolen dress. Ladies with dark or
brown hair should avoid contrasts in their
costumes, as light substances photograph
more quickly than dark, and ladies with
light hair should dresa in something lighter
than' those whose hair is dark or brown.
Few ladies understand how to arrange their
hair so as to harmonize with the form of the
head, but blindly follow the fashion, be the
neck long or short, or the face narrow or
broad. A broad face appears more so if the
hair is arranged low over the forehead or is
parted at the side, and a long neck becomes
Stork-like when the hair is built up high,
while a few curls would make a most agree-
able chaugc in the effect. Powdered hair
gives good effect, and powder should be be-
stowed upon freckles.”—-lee Capital.

Tread lightly l Tread lightly! Disturb not
his sleep,
His pains are all over and nations now weep;
Speak softly! Speak softly! For he whom we
love
Has gone to the regions of glory above.
Tread lightly! Tread lightly! Move gently
around,
'Tis a hero who aleepth; oh, breathe not I
sound; .
The low, mufiled drums and the manhslled
array
In friendship do gather to bear him away.
Brave GARFIELD, beloved, thy memory shall
twine
As close ’round our hearts as some evergreen
vme;
For sweetly, and gently, thou sank to thy
rest, -
A spirit by Deity called to the blest
Tread lightly! Tread lightly! In silence all
keep;
His life work is over, let GARFIILD now
sleep.
No sound can awake him, the, bosoms may
swell;
"We pause at his casket, and bid him—Faul-
‘ warm.
A Tomboy.
She comes! she comes! with song and glee
She leads her train o’er lawn and lea!
And fieecy scarf, her careless dress.
Her sweet girl-voice, that bird like sings,
Her merry laugh, that tireless rings
High o’er those booming sounds of sport—
All hail! wild queen of madcap court!
No daisy chain will this gay girl
E're weave to deck her dancing curl;
No wreath entwine of bad or bell,
Though both, she wots, become her well;
Not hers to guess of joy or grief
By conning of a holly leaf;
She tempts not fortune’s smile or frown
By puffs of dandelion down;
No necklace frames of rowan gems,
Nor fragrant, flower-wrought diadems!
No poet she to doze and dream
Long, lazy hours by haunted stream!
If small the brook, she’ll head her train
And leap it o'er and back again;
Or if her boys will but away 1
She’ll wade it, maybe—I can’t say.
Her boys—all boys—around her press
For love of her sweet winsomeneu,
And dogs that bark for very glee—
A harum-scarum company 1
She’s o'er the lea, she’s won the wood,
This dainty bud of maidenhood I
Those joyous peels, I trow, bespeak
The gay,-glad mirth of hide and seek,
As hazel dell and brackened glade
Her graceless band in turns invade;
Little she reeks rents or shreds,
But boldly breasts the bramble beds?
:Tis she has bade them rig the swing,
And wood for fires unhallowed bring;
’Tis she the torch illicity waves,
And leads her trcops through mirky caves;
’I‘is she hath crossed the pine trunk thin,
That, rocking, bridges yon dark linn—
With joyous cheer and wild halioo
Hounds on her host to derring-do!
’Tis she has taught those nimble feet
To scatter wide the windrows sweet;
On fragrant hay-ricks led the foe,
And long hours’ work at once laid low;
Yet Farmer Swan, who from the stile
Had watched it all, ne’er ceased to smile—
" God bless her party face! She be
A regular Tomboy, ssrtinlee l',"
HARVEST HOME.
BY sans. A. H. ruauzn.
Most grateful we gather
The fruitage of the year,
And offer our thanksgiving
With heart and voice sincere!
The rowing and the planting
Have brought their blest reward ;
Lo, would we place our offering
Low at Thy feet, 0 Lord—
Oar Harvest Home
What wealth of treasure amt! til. .
To bless the labor done!
How hard the work and watching,
How sweet the triumph won!
What golden gleam of beauty
The ripened fruitage yields!
With songs of joy and gladness
We glean the fragrant fields.
Sweet Harvest Home!
0 Lord, when Thou dost gather
Thy sheaves of golden wheat,
And from the worthless masses
Select the pure and meet—
When, all earth's harvests over,
Thine own is just begun—
0 grant Our Heavenly Father,
We hear Thy lcall. “Well Done ! "

Yes, God has made me a woman,
And I am content to be
Just what He meant, not reaching out
For other things, since He 1 .
Who knows best and loves me most has or
dered this for me.
A woman to live my life out
In quiet womanly ways,
Hearing the far of battle,
Seeing as through a haze
The crowding, struggling world of men fight
Through their busy days.

The young men of this country who have
been financing the edge of their sisters
with the mud from their ,heels, will be
pained :to learn that it is not a street or
walking garment at all. English authority

origin of the ulster, should be final—says '
that it is purely and simply a traveling coat.

the coach or carriage, or inside the railway
carriage when the air is tripping." The
mortification of the gilded youth of Ameri-
ca over this revelation will be equal to that

covered that high silk bats were intended to
be worn on the head, and not, as he first
supposed, to break the violence of, his fall,
should he be so unfortunate, as be some.

of the colored Episcopalians in Washington,
and contributed liberally toward. liquidating
the debt of the church. His presence there
was entirely unexpected by the congrgstion,
and was a cause of general congratulation
among the members.
