before Gll-llvlllc‘s “Human" Society.”
It. was not. a Very old Society, truly, but
it, was made up of the the wealthiest.

and its laws as laid down by the young
minlster, Ruv. Harold Dlsbrow, were
good ones, nevertheless. The members
met every two weeks to discuss the bes‘

which Glcuville was plentifully aupplled,

the intervening time. In fact, it was a

would do in the near future. 'At Marjorie
Led _\ ard’s passionate outburst somo'lookcd
shocked, others regarded her pitylngly,
while young Dr. Grey turned toward bcl

“Yes,” she continued, Wllll an emphatic

“Why, I—" the girl faltercd, 'a deep

“But, Mlss Ledyard," the minister said
gravely, “that is the end and aim ‘of our
society—to enter and teach the inmates

laws ?"
“Oh, no, not. at all—if you enjoy them,”
She answered with a light laugh. “Only
let me be pu't on the sick list, and free
to do as I like.” '
“Not at all, Marjo‘rie," Cornie West-
brooke joined in sweetly.‘ “We will
place you in the Poet’s Corner of our
little paper, or give you charge of the
Lecture Department, your speech was so
ardent.”
“Was it a good speech ?" queried
Marjorie, raising her eyebrows cooly. “I
am glad you liked it, Cornie, and hope
you will profit by it."
Then she arose and walked over to the
piano, but not, without catching the re—
mark ~,-;Flora Courtney made to Harry
Grey.
“Marjorie is so peculiar,” she murmur-
ed, wilnaaoft little laugh. “How can
she say such thlnga about the poor
people? Why, for my part, I just love
to go among them. Au'd.sonle of their
mites of homes are so quaint‘and ro-
mantle.”
And the fair-haired young doctor smiled
brightly at the delicate little lady beside
him, and answered,—Mllrjoric did not
know what, and perhaps did not care.
Tcmpusfugita—“timca fliel,’f and true
to the wise old saying, the week. and
months flew by and winter had ~aettled
down in a dreary fashion.
Smallpox had broken out in ~ Glenville,
and there was great excitement and
terror. It had started in some of the
poor, close shanties, and spread and
widened through the beautiful
village. Households were broken up,
friend fled from friend, many died for
want of careful nursing, grave ‘er grave
was added in the churchyard, and a let-
rlblc deatroyiug angel seemed brooding
over the desolate homes‘ of the rich and ‘
the buts of the poor.
One raw, cold afternoon Dr. Grey
drove elowly up the long hill toward the
tumble-down but of old Mother Brown’s.
Theleills bung loose over the back of
the jadcdlooking horse, and the doctor
leaned back in the carriage, hia cap pulled
low over his eyes that, just then, were
“gloomy with thought." _ .
“It is well," he said to himself, “that

quilt and smoothed it.
But, are he could make out. the mom:

the dalntyhun‘dkcrchicf from the youm

sank back panting on the pillow.
Dr. Grey's face was full of astoniah.
mental the act, but. he laughed softly' a.»
he :quericd still in _the calm
light tone: “Come, come! What‘s al
the uecrecy about? Is there really a
little fairy mixed up in 'the wonderful
t unuformation of this mom? I believe-
evcn you are looking better, llIl's.gBrow n."
I‘be woman made no answer, but
hugged the scented lace still closer to he:
breast. . .
As the doctor drove down the hill or. q
the way 'to another patient», he said to
himself :
“Can it. be that. Miss Courtney has re.
turned to aid in caring for the nick ? Has
she willingly hlid down her prettinesa to
do il—for she could hardly fail to catch
the disease. If she has done this one can
casil y oVerlook her aficcleddigbt manner.
On my way home I’ll just stop and
enquire.” ~
Wllicb he accordingly did, only to
learn from her mother that “dear Florry
dare not return until all danger was OVcr;
she was so afraid of smallpox."
And the young doctor went on to his
lonely, hurried dinner, .wondering ex-
ceedingly who could be the owner of that
handkerchief.
' As he had few calls to make the next
morning, Dr. Grey decided to go up to
the old shanty on the hill and see how
Mother Brown was getting along. It was
seldom he had no little to do, and he
must take advantage of it.
Evidently Mrs. Brown was greatly
surprised to see the doctor that. time of
day, as his visits were usually in the
afternoon. Once more be detected the
fragrance of violets in the room, but was
too wise this time to mention it.
He knew the worn old woman could-
ncver get. well, but he thought she
appeared belt8r that morning when he
entered; however, just an hewas about to
leave, she was taken decidedly worne,ano
the physician’s practiced eyes saw that
the was dying. ‘ .
Al be bent over her, raising her head
higher so she could breathe more easily'
she lifted her hollow eyes to hm face and
endeavored to_speak, but her voice dicd
outin a whisper. _
“You wish to tell me something ?"
queried the doctor gently, kneeling beside
the bed so that. the woman’sllead could
rest on his arm. “Never mlnd, you will
feel better presently.”
“Tell her—to—come in. I—want her.
She needn’t—mind—you, now," panlcd
the faint. voice.
“You wish to ace someone ?” he asked.
“Where is she.”
'l‘ne woman could not answer, but the
young man Saw ller glance at the door. in
the rear of the hut.
“Is she there ?" he enquired. "Shall i
call her? I will go away if sue does do:
want to see me.”
Gently laying her head back on the
pillow, the young man crossed the room
and opend the rickety door.
Tlerc, just beyond the little patch of
ground the old woman had for a garden,
stolld a slender, gillisb figure with arms
CI'OSSfid on the me dow bars, and dull;
head resting on them.
Dr. Grey started back, pausing an in
stunt at the .aighf, then went down the
dreary walk and stood beside the gill
laying his strong, fair hand on her
shoulder gently.
“Min Ledyard," he said gravely, “why
are you standing beref' You will surely
get. sick with this raw east wind blowing
over yon;and certainly there is enough
llckness now} without anyone trying to
make themselves ill."
The girl raised her head and brought
her hands together in a quick pretty little
way all her own, as she answered him.
"‘Ob, why need you trouble yourself
about me, Dr. Grey? I came out here
simply and lolcly became I did not wish
to meet. you! liave you any objections? ’
"Surely, Miss Ledyard," he said alcrnlyp
“I hope it is not my fault that you are
out here this cold, grey morning. If so,
you may go in directly, and I will remain
here myself. Mm. Brown is dying and
wishes to see you—at least. I suppose it is
you ?" half inquiringly,the deep blue eyes
watching the bright young face gravely.
“Oh, yes, it is I." she replied, lightly,
“Too bad Flora isn’t here to put her
theories into practice, isn’t it, Dr. Grey?
She does so love the poor."
And Harry Grey steed in the garden,
pondering her little sarcastic speech long
after she disappeared into the house.
Presently she came to the door and
called him, and as he entered she was
abodt to leave, but the old woman called
out to her to return, no together they bent
over the dying woman.
- "Doctor,” murmured the weak. voice,
as the longuhin band ofth poor creature

joining their hands together, “Be. ’ee

sank back on the pillow. Old Mother
Brown was dead.

death, and tried to withdraw her hand,
but Harry Grey held it firmly. .
“Mun Lcdyard." he asked gravely, “do
you know that you will be likely to lake

“I know it," she answered, her voice
steady, but the while quivering a little.
"Are you not afraid f" gently scanning
the brave young face.
“I am not,” quietly.
“Why did you come here of all places?"
“Because I wished to. ’

“And you were willing to come here

From Omaha to Denver—Plants of Interest
Along the Route—Preparing for a Trip

in 11. n. raowrr'r.
The route from .Omaha to Denver is a
gentle upward grade ol about. 4,200 lee-t
.u the whole dlstullcc, but. as these two
cities are scpal'alcu'by 516 milcn, the rise
is not perceptible. Some lucguailthS of
grade however, all: noticed, more-particu-
larly tn the start, as for instance on the
first. inlet: miles, in which the tram
mounts SummlLISiding, 1,142 feet. above
tide water, bclng 176 feet above Omaha,
wnlcb ls-960 feet. above the sen. After
eatcblng a glance at the tel-beyond, it
descends from its lofty belgut and at. Gll-
more, Len mllrs from Omaha, it. is only
ten feet higher than it was at the starting
point. Numerous small towns and
stations line tnle'road, and it in surprising
to see how inlanew country is [upldly
lune-miles from Omaha, the tram is agaln
at. 1,150 feet elevation. Here we notice a
town that is quite flourishing, and which
does a large busmeaa ln grain. At Water-
loo, only two mllcs from the last station,
a few years since a train was thlowu from
the budge which crosses the Elkhorn
rlver, in consequence of a fresbct. In
one of the calls inert-appears to buy: been
a quantity of young fish, or fish eggs, all
of whlcu were lost la the river. From
that time the Ezkboru l'chr has aboundcd
ln plke, bass and perch. Fremont, forty-
flt'en miles ”of.“ Omaha, is a town of
3,000 population, and in the county seat of
Dodge county. Tbls town has several
churches, an elegant School house, two
banks, several elevatola and some manu.
mcturmg establishments. Wbllc tl‘aVel-

'Windluills arcflfrequently seen pumplng
water.
Passing by some of the towns and
villages our attention is next. drawn to
the town of .Scbuyier and as we hear
this name the mind reverts to Hon.
Schuyler Colfax. On making an inquiry
relative to this place Wt: are informed that
this is the county seat of Colfax county,
seventy-live miles from Omaha, with an
elevation of 1,335 feet. The Valuation
of property in this town and county is
laid to be assessed for about one and
three-quarter millions of dollars. Here
are seen several stores, hotels, churches,
school houses and elevators. It is said
that this is the third town west of Omaha
that has a bridge across the Platte river.
The farmers of this county are turning
their attention to stock-raising. Again'al
Columbus, ninety-two miles; as the train
stops here for a few minutes we find a
very neat appearing place with broad
Itreets, large stores, and chamber, of
which there are seven or eight in this
town of about 2,500 people. This has a
large» back country, not: in agricultural
productions. It is located at. the junclion
of the Loop Fork with the Platte river-
lt in also said that the men who first Eame
tothis place were all poor, 'and that the
place has been built out of the capita
they have acquired by their industry.
In fact, most of the farms in Nebraska
are occupied by people from the east,
who came here with little or no cash
capital, and who, by homesteading or
purchase on time, have made nice homes
and are doing well. But there is another
thing to which the attention of travelers
is specially directed, and that is to large _
groups of trees that are frequently noticed,
and here the reader must be prepared to
understand that on this naturally treeless
prairie land anything of the forest up
,pearancn attracts considerable attention.
These are cottonwood trees, a tree that
grows very quick, and. is abundant in
foilage, and one which seems to be more'
adapted to'the coil than any other. These
are planted as a protection from thIl fierce
winds and storms anti are a great. shelter
for fru't trees. Persons coming to Na-
braska make it their flrstnim to plant'a
piece of ground with corn ; and the next»
thing is to put. in a large number of trees
for shelter. . Ill this state we are inform-
ed that there is a special day in spring
called Arbor day. on which day the whole
papillation, abandoning everything else,
devote their attention to tree planting. in
which a great spirit of rivalry is manifest-
ed. It is by schedule time, 10:59 p. m.,
as the train reaches the station called
Plum Creek, 231 miles from Omaha.
Passengers are all reeling quietly. How
great a contrast a few yeara have dee.
It is no further back than 1867 when this
was one of the most dangerous places on
the road. It appears to have been the
favorite Ipot for attacks from Indiana.
Stages were waylald, trains wrecked, and
the victlmn scalped. Al. Willow Island,
220 miles frOm Omaha, is the place where
the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia, when
on his visit. to the United States in 1872,
enjoyed the‘cxcltement of a buffalo built.
his first'buffalo, telegraphed to his father,
the Czar of Bosnia, that he had killed the
first. wild hornl-d monster that had met
his eye in America. Now there is not. a
buffllo or an Indian to be seen in this sec-
tion.
We arrived at Denver a little behind
achrdule time on Wednesday morning.

in waiting at the depot, we were soon

"A God-Send.”
The children of Israel were once fed by

undoubted case of “God-30nd.” The amel-
ioration of human illa and ailments cal been
often undertaken, and an often failed. Ely‘n
Cream Balm, however, “has been weighed in
the balance and not found wanting.” It is a
sovereign, appedy, certain, and pleasant
cure for catarrh, and . cold in the .bead.
Thousands of persons have attested this fact.
“Ely’a Cream Balm is a. go4 send” wrote
Mrs. M. A. Jackson, of Portlmoutll, N. H.,
on May 22d, 1883. "I had catarrll for there
years; had tried nearlv all remedies, but to
no purpoac. Two or three times a. week my
nose would bleed quite freely, and I thought
the sores in it would never heal. Your balm
has cured me.” This preyaration is not a
liquid or a snuff, and is easily applied. _Can

, The celebrated German organist, Martini
(Esau, while on a visit to England, chanced
’one day to attend Dr. Bobbins’alchuroha in
company with a friend and countryman,
Iwho was a member of the choir. The char-
acter of the visitor became known to, the
singers, and they were eager to hear the
German play. , The chm-later whispered to
the old organist Winder that he must let
(Faun “play the congregation out." This
was simply a voluntary which the organist
was in the habit of performing while the
Icongrega' tion were retiring at the close of
the services. The old organist turned up
his nose in disdain and disapproved ;. but
the promure came schard that lie at length
gave in, and the German good-naturedly
consented, to give a'tast‘e of his quality. The
closing anthem had come to ti conclusion,
the benediction with pronounced, and Winder
reluctantly arose‘from his, seat and allowed
(Esau to take his place. ' (The people had

in the clia'r'acter 5! those' alone who are no-
torious drunkards that such tendencies ap‘
pear. They are bften distinctly-seen ‘in the
lives of men who—ardhéver drunk. Sir Henry
Thompson’s testimony is emphatic to the
afiect that» “-tlle’hhbitual use of fermented
liq'udrs, to an extent for short of whilt ii nec-
eSSary to produce; intoxication; injure the
body and diminishes l the mental power."
If, as he testifies, a large. proportion of the
most painfuland dangerous maladies of the
body-arc due «to “ the use of ferment/ell liq-
'uors, .fnkeuiufhmquaufity which is conven-
tionally'deemed’mollerate,” then it is certain.
that such‘use of them mustrcault also in scr.
ions injuries.to the mental and moral nature.
Who does not. know reputable gentlemen,
phym'cians, artists, clergyman even, who
were never drunk in their lives, and never
will be; but who revealjn conversation and
in conduct,'- certain melancholy effects of the
drinking habit? The brain is so often in-
.flamed with alcohol that its functions are im-
perfectly performed, wind there is a pr-rcepo
tible lous'bf mental power and of moral tone.
The drinker is not conscious of this loan;
-bufnflmlwhu know him butane spamiullly...
aware that his perceptions are less keen, his
judgments less sound, his hamper- less 3. r n i,
his spiritual vision less clear. because he lar-
ries every day a little too long at the wine.
Even those who rvfusc to entertain ascetic
theories respecting these beverages may be
able to see that there are uses of them that
stop short of drunkenness, and that are still
extremely hurtful to the mind and the heart _
as well as the body. That conventional idea
of moderation, to which Sir Henry Thomp-
son refers, is quite elastic; the term is
Stretched to cover habits that are steadily
doapoiling the life of its rarest fruits. The
drinking habit is often defended by reputa-
ble gentlemen to whom the very thought of
a debuuch would be shocking, but to whom,
if it were only lawful, in the tender and just
solicitnde of friendship, such words as these
might be spoken : “It is true that you are
not drunkards, and may never be ; but if
you could know, what is too evident to those
who love yon‘ best, how your character is
slowly losing the firmness of its texture and
the fineness of its outline; how your art de-
teriorates in the delicacy of its touch ; how
the atmosphere of your life seems to grow
murky and the sky lowers gloomily above
you—you would not think your daily indul-
gence harmless in its measure. It is in just
such lives as yours that drink exhibits some
of its most mournful tragedies."

Every observant traveler who visits Etna
and Versuvius admires the wonderful fertil-
ity of the country around the valonnoes.
The defeat of Hannibal has been ill lrlbuted
to the enervating influence of n sojourn on
the luxurious plains of (Japan. The expla-
nation of this is afforded by some analyses ,
made by L. Bicciardi of_ ashes ejected from
Vesuvius on the 25th of February, 1882.
He foundin them four and one-third per
cent. of phosphate of lime and more than
five and one-half per cent. of potash, and
that the ash evolved a sensible quantity of
ammonia when treated with caustic potash.
These and other constituents indicate a vul-
lmble fertilizer provided it is distributed in
a pnlv. rized condition, and such distribu-
lluntflkes place over ll. very large area. of
country during an eruption, for the masses
of lava-crust ejected perpendicularly from
h a crater fell back toward it, and on their
way down encounter other pieces coming
upward, and thus they are so continually
crashing together that they grind each other
into dust, which is blown as soon at the par-
ticles become small enough to yield to the
wind. At the great eruption of Tomb'oro,
on the island of Sumbliwa (east of Java),
which continued from April 5. 1815. to the
beginning of June, some of the dust thus
formed travelled' to Tara and Celebes,
a distance of 300 luilcs,. and caused ll dark-
nessdescribed by Sir Stamford R’lfll s as
more profound than that of the darkest
night. This dust was -lepositetl over'an area
estimated at about 2,000 miles in circumfer-
ence, and in some places was so' deep as to
do serious mischief. This, of course, is an
extreme instance, but during or linury erup-
tions 11 deposit of some» inches in depth is
spread over vast areas, supplying a f‘top
