NORWALK GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY JULY 24. .1889.“

 

ONE THING SADDER.

0, ye mothers with empty arms,
u; . veryearein the world tonight,
Imaytell you something to comfort your hearts.
Andmslne, by a trifle, yourburden more light.

Itissali. I know, for a mother to feel,
Nohead onher breast, where once one lay:

'llo hes-rue patter of footsteps, no noise,
Where once her darlings shouted at play.

But adeadlysiience through all the house,
Unbroken, save for the clock‘s low tick;
A chair in this corner, a toy in that,
Anda raging steed made from a stick.

It is sadder yet when the day is done,
To sit alone in the twilight‘s glow,

And wonder whose arms those children are in—
To wonder and wonder, yet never to know!

 

But, 0, ye mothers of bawa I say,

There is one thing sadder—by far-«than this
To have never felt wet lips at your breast,

Or pressed on your own child‘s face a kiss.

There are mothers and mothers in heart and soul,
\Vho go uncomforted year unto year,
With that yearn ing, unsatisfied void in their
breasts,
Deprived of the blessings that women hold dear.
' —Ella Higginson.

 

THE ACIDEMY BOAT mar.

 

A jolly breeze came rollicking over the hills
and tossed up the water of the Kennebec
river till each little wave had put on a white
cap to protect its head. It was all very good
fun for the breeze, but no joke to the forty
Academy boys who had looked forward for
months to this very day as the time for the
races. If ever smooth water was in demand,
now was the time. But with a whoop and a
whistle round danced the merry wind, and
the boys actually stamped with impatience.

Do you suppose that college men are to
have all the glory as far as boating is con-
cerned? Orantsoak Academy shook its head
and, said, “No!” Miss Belinda Crockett shook
her pretty head and said “No” also.

Who was Miss Belinda Crockett?

Why, she was the very loveliest young lady
in Maine—some say in all the world. There
was not a. man or woman from eighty years
old and downward who did not say, “Bless
her!” when Miss Belinda appeared. It was
Miss Belinda who got up all the picnics; who
setup at night with sick people; who wore _
theprettiest gowns in the village; who sang
in the choir; who took two babies home and
kept them a month till their mother could
get well of a fever; who made her father
flood the pond so the boys could have steady
skating, and then gave half of them skates,
“rockers" at that; and who always came to
the baseball matches with a dozen lemons
for. the players.

No wonder the lads all adored Mim Belinda
Crockett Tom Tyrrell, aged 14, in a frenzy
of gratitude and affection, had even “made
up” a poem in her honor, and had presented
it to her on gilt edged paper:

Oh, lovely Miss Crockett!

Your eye in its socket

Is bright as n. rocket
Just taking a start.

When shyly you cock it,

Ah, me! what a shock it

Right through my vest pocket
Sends into my heart! -

Perhaps it was because she was plowed by
this tribute, that, one evening in March, Miss
Belinda tooktthe youthful Thomas into her
confidence.

“Do you ever row, Tom?” asked she.

Observe, MissCrockett never called Tom
Tyrrell “Tommy," as so many thoughtless
persons did. Sometimes she even addressed
him as “Tyrrell,” upon which Tom seemed to
grow an inch.

“Because I have a plan, Tom, in which I
need your help. Would you please give me
your arm? This hill is hard to climb. You
row, did you say ‘é”

“Yes,” panted Tom, quite breathless with
the honors thrust upon him. “Yes, I do,
sometimes in my father's punt.”

“Do you suppose there are enough acad-
emy boys to form three crews of, say, four
oars each, if my brother would train them
when he comes from Europe in May ?”

“Miss Belinda!” gasped Tom, “how good
you are! Why, there are twenty who’d go
crazy at the thought, and there are one, two,
three boats, I know of to hire. Do you sup
pose your brother would ‘coach’ us?"

Mis Belinda nodded.

“I think so. What’s more, you shall have
asupper after the race. And there shall be
three prizes, too, Tom, so no one need feel he
has. rowed for nothing. You arrange mat-
ters, will you, and make out a list of the
crews?”

Every boy in town knew of Miss Crmkett‘s
offer the very next morning; and long before
noon three “picked crews" had been organ—
ized.

Tom Tyrrell was captain of one; Solomon
Gibbs, the celebrated woodchuck trapper, of
the second; while the third was under the con—
trol oiineodore Elder,more commonly known
as ‘W Elder.

Theariver being at that time frozen, as well
as under several feet of snow, the (rows,

' ’ with enthusiasm, resorted to Mr.
Gibbs’ barn to exercise onseveralsets of hotl-
zontalbars. Here they turned and twisted
daily, to raise their muscles, against mead-
vent of Mr. H. Algernon Crockett.

There was some doubt as to whether 80 au-
gust apex-eon as H. Algernon, Esq, would
condescend to train a dozen country lads.
But when Mr. Crockett at last' all
fear vanished. He fairly took the crews by
storm.

To be sure his mustache, with its waxed
ends, waswonderful to behold, and a ring on
his little finger was a vision beyond any that
Orantsoak had hitherto imagined. It was
well known, moreover, that Mr. EL Aketnan
had actually taken oif his hat to Queen Vic-
toria; that he had played billiards with a full
blooded Minn count; that he had been
“hand and glove” with all “the. old masters”
(whoever those worthies might be), and. that
he hadeven taken a trip to Egypt to ration-
ize the sphinx.

But in spite of all his superiority and
clothes, Mr. H. Algernon Crockett was s
cordial, good natured young man, with a
great hearty voice, and a laugh as con
gious as the measles. ~
- Retell in with his sister's plans, and un-
' datook to “coach” her boys with much good
. will.

1 Trainthem he did, and that with no sham.

Hemdetbmrunmnd hemadethem pull.
He insisted on their eating meat, and he for-
Z bade their even looking at a. pie or a dough-
f: n ut. Indeed, he turned one boy right out of
' Twig Eider’s crewbecause hepartook of a
.n'ca. trimmer. Hewould not allow Tom
_ yrrell to row “stroke," but put him in as
' “No. 3," which would certainly have broken
om’s heart had not Mr. Crockett “mnsulted”
"iimat sucharatethat Thomasactmlly be-

' 'eved.he had proposed the change himself.

i wig Elder’s gave out at the end of the week.

balls; thethlrd, four bhmcapa-mdfuirbiufi
shirts for rowing costumes.

All the country folk, from near and from
far, hadheardof theraoeend moommg
to See it.

Philemon and Romeo Am Gibbs (Sol-
omon’s younger brothers) had urn-sped their
throats raw rehearsing a new fashioned
cheer, something between a sneeze and a
how], for the occasion.

All the academy girls haddocked'them-
selves with red. white or blue ribbons, the
color depending on which craft each lassie
favored.

The race was to be the event of the season.
So it was very provoking that that breeze
should choose this very day to churn the
water inio froth.

Mr. ll. Algernon Crockett looked grave.

“No race today,” said he.

The rowers were in despair. So, it seemed,
was Mr. Crockett, senior, Mr. H. Algernon
and Miss Belinda’s father. He was a hot
headed old gentleman, and it was he who
had ordered the supper. He declared the fes-
tivity could no: and should not be put off.

“But, the waves will (wrtuinly

"r 'I.. on
lullidl ,

i
. swamp the boats,” argued his son.

“Tut, tut: nonsense!” cried Mr. Crockett.

“if the bouts do swamp, haven’t those rascals

pluck enough to swim? Do you think that ice
cream is going for nothing? Let the race
take place, I say.”

"Hurrah l” shouted the boys.

“Hurrah I" shouted the bystanders.

Mr. H. Algernon again looked grave; but
he might as well have tried to turn the plan—
ets from their courses as to attempt to make
Mr. Crmkett change his mind; so the boats
were made ready.

The boats were pulled into the middle of
the stream. There was a breathless pause,
disturbed only by Romeo Augustus Gibbs,
who, overpowered by his emotions, broke
into the new fashioned cheer and was prompt-
ly choked by Philemon. The cars were held
suspended. Every ear was strained for the

“Are you ready? GO!”

Inaflash oif darted thebonts. Twig El-
der’s crew began to pull wildly, but soon
came into order. _

Tom‘s boat Solomon’s by six inches.
Twig’s came h a length behind.

Staid old farmers broke into a trot, and,
headed by the village doctor, followed along
the bank, keeping pace with the boats

There were cries of “Now then, Solomon

Gibbs!” “Go ahead, No. 2!” “Pull, Twig,
pull!”

And pull they did, valiantly, swinging
round the turning stake, Solomon now a boat
length in advance, briskly pursued by Tom.

Now came the tug of war, for wind and
wave were both against them, on the home
stretch.

Oh, that mischievous breeze! It tossed the
water against their bows. It caught their
oars and tried to snap them in two. It blind-
ed their eyes with spray; until, suddenly,
there was a cry of terror from the shore—
Twig Elder’s boat had gone under.

There was a brief moment of fear, and then

, all four boys scrambled to the shore.

Never for a moment did Solomon or Tom
falter, though Tom’s boat was heavy with
the water in its bottom. In five minutes it
was of no use to struggle.

“Bow to shore and ball out!” shouted Mr.
H. Algernon; and there was no choice but to
obey.

Just then Solomon‘s boat was seen heading
for the opposite bank. She was full also.

Was there over such a ridiculous race?
Even Mr. Crockett, 812, said, "Give it up;”
but the boys were too excited to do that now.
It was a tussle to see which crew would be
ready first to start afresh.

At one and the same moment they pushed,
once more, into the stream, Solomon still a
trifle ahead. The crowd on the bank called
out eucouragingi’y. The boys tugged. The
breeze, evidently think' itagameallgotten
up for its especial hen t, whisked up and
down, blew high and low, and threw pailfuls
of water into the boats. ,

It was in vein that Tom took oil? his cap to
bail. That boat was doomed. Deeper and
deeper it sat in the river. At last under it
went, when only fifteen lengths from the goal.
In fact it turned completely over, and when
it rose to the top was bottom upwards, while
thecrew wereall adrift in the midst of a tre-
mendous spashing. Tom remembered that
Dod Axum, Who pulled “bow,” could not
swim, and caught him h the collar.

“Get holdof the boot, " hecx‘ied. “As
for the nest of you—mind, now—haul the
craft along and swim like whales—eVer-y one
of u!”

A pint of warm water in the morning, on
an empty stomach, is now recommended as
the safest and surest of all remedies for habi.
tual constipation. It dissolves the fecal mat-
ter andstimulates peristaltic action, thereby
giving a normal action without pain. I! the

Shamanism-(lat.

“You-can’t tellwhatawoman will do in
thecaseofaburglar.” The erwas an
licecaptain, and his twinkled "as
hethOught of the many told him by

the victims of burglars and by the burglary
themselves. “A burglar," he continued, “18
lost when he getsmttled, andawonnm in the
(rise of a burglar raid-ls apt to do the unex-
pected thing, and in this way disconcert even
thelooolest professional. To the unprofessional
who desires above all things to conceal his
identity the impulssve woman isa holy terror.

“Not long ago it happened that the wife of
one of our prominent physicians was alone on
the parlor floor of her residence. The house
had never been burglarized, and no one
thought that it would be or could be. On
the night in question the lady was awakened
by sounds in the parlor, and calling out to ask
who was there she heard retreating footsteps.
Half awake and wholly under the influence
of the thought that one of her servants or
some member of the family was in the parlor,
she jumped out of bed, and without a mo-
ment’s hesitation started in pursuit, intent
only on learning what was the matter. In
the hall she came face to face with a strange
man, and even then she was not wide awake
enough to be afraid. The thought that the

 

stranger was a burglar did not come to her 1

until she had asked, in an anxious way, what

1 was the matter. 1

The burglar, who, it was afterwards dis-; ,',
covered, had made preparations to carry Off i ’ ‘
the silver and certain other articles which he i

had collected, was so confused that he made
a single exclamation, stepped to the front
door, opened it and walked quickly away.
He said afterward that the idea of a small,

delicate faced woman following him up close: ,

1y made him shiver, and when she spoke to
him with the commonplace manner of one
asking his welfare, his muses deserted him
and there was nothing for him to do but to
get out. ”<—Chicago Inter Ocean.

locomotives Run by Soda.

Four locomotives to be run by soda, which
takes the place of fire under the boiler, have
been built for service in the streets of Min—
neapolis, Minn, where steam engines are for-
bidden. The engine is about sixteen feet

long, entirely boxed in, with no smoke stack ’

or pipes as there is no exhaust or refuse.
Inmde the boiler will be placed five tons of
soda, which, upon being damped by a jet of
steam, produces an intense heat. In about
six hours the soda is thoroughly saturated,
when the action ceases. A stream of super-
heated sicam from a stationary boiler is then
forced through the soda, which drives out the
moisture and the soda is ready for use again.

The exhaust steam from the cylinders is
used to saturate the soda, and by this means
all the refuse is used. These engines are the
first of their kind that have been built in this
country. They are said to have the same
power as those used on the New York elevat-
ed roads. Soda engines are used in Berlin
and other European cities and they also trav-
erse the St. Gothard tunnel under the Alps,
where sufficient ventilation cannot be had to
carry oif the noxious gases which would be
generated by a steam engine—New York
Commercial Advertiser.

About the Teeth.

A physician remarked to me, the other day,
that he did not suppose that 1 per cent. of
the dentistry is being done that should be.
He attributed the cause to ignorance, and
wonderecuf in time the press would not be
used 353 means of educating the public to
the importance of dentistry. One source of
a great deal of suffering among children of
parents who desire to save the teeth of the
rising generation is the ignorance regarding
the cutting of the second or permanent set.
The first teeth of the permanent set to erupt
are the first, or six year molars, which take
their places back of the last molars of the
first, or milk set. These teeth are more sub-
ject to decay than any others, and they are
also very important, as they do the principal
part of the mastication between the sixth
and twelfth years. Parents frequently mis—
take. these teeth for members of the milk set,
hence neglect them, thinking that when they
are lost new ones will take their places. Air
other source of suffering is the ne lect of the
milk set. These teeth should be ed and re-
tained in the mouth until the second set is
ready to take their plums Toothaches can
be avoided by proper attention. —St. Louis
Dentist.
