But all I see Is initio .
The orchard nnd tho mowing field,
Tho lawns nud gardens flue.'
Tho winds my tux collectors nre,
They bring mo tithes divine
Wild cents nud subtle essences,
A tribute rare nnd freo
And, more magnificent than all,
My window keeps for 1110
' A glimpse of blue immensity,
A little strip of sea.
Richer am I than he who owus
Great fleets and argosies
1 have n share in every ship
Won by the luliind brcezo
To loiter on yon nlry road
Abovo tho apple trees.
I fright llic.ni with my untold dreams,
Each bears my own picked crew,
And nobler cargoes wait for them
Than ever India knew
My ships that sail into the East
Across that ouilet blue.
Sometimes they seem like living shapes
, Tho people of tho t ky
Guests in wliitd raiment coming down
1'rom heaven, which is close ty ;
I call them by familiar names,
As ono by ono draws nigh,
So while, so light, so spirit-like.
From violet mists they blooiff
The aching wastes of the unknoiyti
... Aro half reclaimed from gloom,
Since on life's hospitable sea
All souls Bud sailing room.
The ocean grows n weariness
With nothing else in sight ;
Its east nnd west, its nortli nnd rout li,

We miss the warm, caressing shore,
Its brooding shade nud light ,
A pait is greater than the whole !
By hints nro mysteries told
The fringes of eternity

In that bright shred of glimmering sea,

The sails, like flakes of roseate pearl,
' Float in upon the mist j
The waves nro broken precious stonos

Washed from celestial basement walls,
By suns' tinselling kissed,
Out through the utmost gales of space.
Past where the gray stars drift,
To t'10 widening iulinitc, my soul "

Yet looses not her nncliora'jo

IIl TI4J A SERVAXT.
JIv wifo was a dollcntc little womnn'. Sho
was esteemed it grenl beauty wlicn I mnr
l'iod her. Her mother told nie if I would
preserve tho roses in ber chocks, I must he
very tender of her nnd shield her from too
mueh care. For that reason I have always
advocated tho dismisshl of servants who
were not absolutely perfect. Clue morning
last week Juno omitted to put tho large
spoons on the table, and the cruets were
entirely empty. 1 took the matter in lumd,
ns a Kood, kind, considerate, thoughtful
husband should, and spoke sharply to tho
girl. ISho undertook to answer mo back,
and I sent her straight out of the house.
'Tlmt is tho way' to do," I baid. "If ono
girl doesn't suit, try auotlicr."
. "But, my dear, Jane was a good servant

"May bo it's up stairsl" screamed nn old
ctonc from n bed iu the corner of the room.
lis I took out a 'paper to 'Bee if I had not

I ascended n nut row staircase, and pass
ed nlorfg ft dark, gloomy corridor. 1
knocked at ni door, and repeated my In
quiries to ti yellow, .sickly looking woman,
with 11 babe in her arms. She knew noth
ing of any such advertisement, but it
might be iu the next room. At Iho next
room they thought that perhaps it wn3 up
stairs. So I was handed along from one
to nnother until I reached tho Hflli lloor.
J'hero 1 gained the extraordinary informa
tion that it was probably v the back yard,
lieaehing tlrog'ronnd, lloor in safety, 1 pro
ceeded to the rear, where there was n three
story houso on the same lot, with 11 space
of only about ton feet between. An old
man sat 011 tho pavement smoking.
"How many .families are thore in tho
building ?" I nsked.
, Ho cogitated a moment before ho re
plied": .
"Twelve, sir."
II was (rue I Tho hall ran through tho
center of thu building, making four rooms
on each lloor, nnd each room contained a
lumily. One man, n shoemaker, had n
wifo and seven children. I visited every,
room before I found the 0110 the, girl had
advertised from. It was Iho most rckqiect
able looking one oT tho lot, nnd tho occu
pant was a young, tidy, well-dressed wo
man. JNiy spirits two like loam nut went
down as quickly. The girl herself had not
come yet.
I wheeled vcrv abruptly nnd hurried toi
tho sidewalk, tfgly words rose to my lips,
but, 1 did not speak them. I wondered if
Ellio had ever, visited such nn abode. Tak
ing out the paper again I read :
"No. 13.S, West- street a young girl
who understands her business, and is neat
ftivl obliging." .
It was only two blocks off. l'his, timo I
was fortunate unough to hit the right room
nt the tirst knock. Tho girl herself opened
the door. Her manner was a little forbid
ding. I fancy she belonged to tho snap
ping turtle order. . , Nothing daunted, how
ever, I explained my business.
. "How many he's there in your family,
sir V" she nsked, ns sho surveyed 1110 from
head to foot, i dress well, at a, general
rule, but it was a windy day, nnd 1 was in
a part of the city .where the streets wero
not watered. Consequently, tho damsel
before me could not make up her mind on
the instant whether I would answer fttr a
master or not. I gave ler tho number eho
would be expected to serve. , , ,,.
"Do thero bo a carpet on tho girl's
room " .
"1'es. Now pleaso inform mo if you
know how lo take care of the wuolo upper
part of the house nud diuiug-room, nnd will

"Do theic bo nny Arcs to make V"
"Ouo or two, I think."
"L guess tho placo wouldn't suit mo. I
never makes fires, lioys always docs that
where I lives." .
I was afloat. I didn't fold and put iny
newspaper iu my pocket nny more. 1 read
ns I walked. According to my printed in
formation, the most desirable person for
me lo visit was a "smart, capable niid will
ing girl," in tho neighborhood of Myrtle
Avenuo. Quito a stretch from the west
part of tho city, but I went, ll was a live
story tenement houso again'. I gave a
dirty boy a quarter to run up stairs and
make inquiries for me, nnd he never came
back to report. iNcar the .third landing I
found tho maiden, r'ho wa? .staying with
a 'friend," in a little room twelve by four
teen. Tho "frieud" was a dealer in old
clothes, and was just sorting over a cargo.
Tho smart, capable, willing girl had seen
sixty-live summers, nud her hair was as
white as snow. Sho was sitting .with her
feet iu a pail of water, trying to cure corns,
so she said. I left.
1 was getting slightly out of temper when
I reached the sidewalk. A dog harnessed
into a small cart obstructed the way. I
raised my foot and removed thu whole es
tablishment into tho street. After that I
felt better'. Turning for comfort to the
paper, I found "Situations Wanted" by
several in the immediate vicinity, and 1
rendered unto all the light of my counte
nance. One girl had jusl "engaged." An
other did not like to go where they did not
keep a "full set of help." A third seemed
qualified for our purpose, but her cotuin
was ueatl, anil sue couiil not con o lor u

Tho fifth made very pointed inquiries about
the number of girls we had during thu last
year, uud then declined engaging where
they changed help so ofleu,. The sixth

taking n chair.
"Oh, nothing extraordinary, Tho girl

iicd with the place, but iu the course of tin
hour we heard Iho lower door slam, and
saw her running down tho street. Toward
evening Juno came for her money nnd iot
having enough by mo, I detained her until
you should 'come in. .She went lo work of
her own accord, has put the house in order,
nud nssisted me in every way possible."
"Keep her if she will stay. I will pro

Mep, I'ulnlliig, Apoplexy.
"When a man is asleep, his pulso beats,
his lungs play, hut he is without sense, and
you cnu wake him up.
If a person faints, ho loo, is without
sensf, hut ho bus no pulse and docs nut
breathe.
Apoplexy is between the two; the heart
beats, the lungs piny ns in sleep, nnd there
is no enso, a? In fainting, but you ennuot
shake lift man buck to ltie.
In sleep, tho face is natural; in a fiiint
ing lit, il litis the pallor nt deutli ; in apo
plexy, it is swollen, turgid nnd fairly livid.
li u man is asleep, let him alone ; nature
will wake him up as soon as he has got
sleep enough.
When a person faints, nil that is needed
is to lay him down ou Hie llour nnd he will
"coniti to" in double quick time. He faint
ed because the heart missed a bent, fuilid
for nn instant, failed for only once in send
the proper nmount of blood to the brain.
If you place the .patient in a horizontal po
sition, lay him on his back, it dues not re
quiro much force of the heart to send the:
blood on a level In tho head ; but you set
a man up, the blond has to bo shot tipiv;u:d
to the head, and this requitvs much more
force ; yet in nine eases nut often, if a per
son faints ami' fulls lo the tlior, the first
thing done is to run to him and set him ou
a chair. . .,'
I u anoiilexy, as there is too much Wood
in the head, every one can see thai the. best,
position is to set n man up, and the blood
naturally tends downward, ns much so ns
water will come out of a bollle when turn

Too Many Miudi.i: Mkn Not
FxoruH PitoiH't'Eiis. The question of the
policy of supporting a class of men known as
commercial travelers or middle men, is oi.u
which is attracting much serious attention.
AVo,. havo referred to it in general terms,
showing that tho wholcsalo merchant,
could iusuro a more profitable and more,
satisfactory intercourse with his country
traflc, iiirougli tlio medium ol advertising
then by the aid of tho commercial borer.
There is no question of this among men
who havo examined Iho subject fairly.
The other view of the business, establishes
the burden which the system imposes on
those who are iu the retail trade. 11 it
estimated l.hat New York'city alone keo'pc
in pay an army of 25,000 drum iners, with
an average salary of SI, 500, or S-o7,000,0U0
in all. Allowing for traveling expenses
4 jier day for 150 day iu the year, nnd the
total expense amounts to ?5:J,001,0J,
Dividing . this sum among !?00,l)OO retar!
stores deriving their supplies from New
Yjrk, and wo laid that they pay an aver-
nge tax of 55175 per annum; fur this nust
ultimately come oil tlio retailer, and to
must make it off his customers. Heiu,
then, is a tax of $5:2,000,000 levied iu New
York alone by the. imperfect and unjust
workings of our trading svstcm for the
support of a class of unless nonproducert:
Such calculations show nt once the folly if
not suicidal policy of nny longer adhering
to such a system. What tho wholeslp
merchant requires, is liberal advertising.
He can do this at one third it now costs lo
employ middle men, and at the same timo
