t AN OLD MAN'S DREAM. ' O for one hour of youthful Joy 1 Give buck my twentieth spring I'd rather laugh a brlght-halrcd boy Than reign gray-balred king I Off with the wrinkled spoils of age I Away with learning's crown 1 I Tear out life's wlsilom.-vrltten page, And dash lia trophies down I One moment let my life-blond stream From boyhood's fount of flame I Give me one giddy, reollug dream Of life all lore and fame t My listening angel heard the prayer. And camly smiling said, "If 1 but touoh thy silvered hair. Thy hasty wish had sped. ' But Is there nothing In thy track To bid thee fondly stay. Whllo the swift xeasons hurry back To flud the wlsbed-fur day ?" Ah, truest soul of womankind Without thee, what were life 7 One bliss I can not leave behind, I'll take my precious wife 1 The augol took a sapphire pen And wrote in rainbow dew: The man would be a boy again, And be a husband, too 1" 'And Is there nothing yet nnsaid Before the change appears?

And be a father, too. " And so I laughed my laughter wok The household with Its noise And wrote my dream, when morning broke, To please the gray-haired boys. Oliver Weudell Holmes. LYDIA'S SACRIFICE. Lytlia sat on the porch looking down Into the orchard, all pink with apple blossoms. A warm May wind blew the curls on her forehead to and fro, and made her feel too drowsy to read. M Middlemarch" bad sunk into her lap, with one finger between the leaves ta keep the place, and she was half asleep when the sound of voices from the sit ting room behind her floated out and became a part of her day dream. "Seems to me," said a high-pitched tone, whioh she knew to be that of a neighbor, ' seems to me you ain't look in' jest up to the mark this spring, Mis' Marcy." "Well, I don't know as I am feelin' any too spry," returned the gentle old voice of Lydia's grandmother. " I ex pect it's this dreadful hot weather com in' on all of a sudden so. I've been thinkin' I'd start in takin' some brim stone and molassos three mornin's and then skip three. Anybody needs a little medicine in the spring. I don't seem to have much of any appetite, and I'm weak as a rag." Maybe it's the cookin' of that hired girl from the city, that you ain't used to," suggested the neighbor. " How docs she take hold ? Is she much of a hand ? " "Well, Lyddy's satisfied with her, and she knows more than I do about the way they do things nowadays. She's visitod the Governor's folks and round among her schoolmates a good deal, and she's seen just how things ought to be. I guess they set a pretty good table to Governor Cobb's." "I guoss they do," paid the neighbor. "But it's kind o' hard for an old woman like mo to get used to new-fangled ways. There ain't nothin' relishin' to me in such little warmed-over messes. I declare, I'd like nothin' better for my dinner than a good rye and Injun cake and a nice, hot cup of tea 1" "I'd like to know what in the world there is to bender your havin' it ?" cried the neighbor, sitting np straight. "Well, Lyddy she nays it ain't the fashion to have tea for dinner, and I give in to her sooner'n to make a fuss. You see, Mis' Seavey, young folks is young folks. When Lyddy come home from boardin' school last Fall I oould ee 'twas hard for her." The old lady paused. "The house ain't new," she resumed. "Why I've lived here myself, Winter and Summer, goin' on sixty year. Our ways here ain't like city ways, and she wanted to ask some of her mates up here; but I could tell 'twas mortifyin' to her to think of their coming to suoh a poor old place, and to me, too, so far behind the times. "So I just says nothin', and let her go ahead her own way fixin' things np. Good land, Mis' Seavey t I just wish you could see the best parlor 1" "What has she dona to it ?" asked Mrs. Seavey. "Why, the chairs and the tables is all twisted every whioh way. Looks as if a high wind had been blowin' through. The blinds is all left wide open, and the sun streamin' in, a-fadin out the car pet like everything. Body Brussels, too, Mis' Soavey 1" "Good land 1 " said Mrs. Seavey. " She's got out some of the best chiny and stood up the plates on the mantel piece, aud more of 'em hangin' on the wall. There's old shawls a dangliu' in the doorways. That picture of lather, painteu wuen lie wa a young man, she's took down altogether. Shu Bays it's awful." , " Dear suz I " cried the neighbor. "But I'm sure the minister used to set a sight by that picture I never come in when he was here but I found him lookin' at it. She's stood some plants on the floor by the windows. She's well, I can't tell you all. She wants wo should set there common every day. I don't know what her grnmlfiither would say if he could see it. 1 expect he would turn over in liii grave." i'oov Mrs. Marcy was quite out of breath as she poured out her soul. To have the sacred best parlor profaned had boon n sore trial, which it took all her love for Lydia to bear. To sit there common" would have been to her as wicked as to carry her knitting to the meeting house. " She want I should dress up every afternoon in my best black silk and the white net cap Sarah Sheldon made me. That silk's too good to set around in. It's only been turned twice, and I've kep' it nice for funerals an' when I do go to moetin', though that aiu't often now. Why, it'll get all shiny in no time if I go to puttm' it on every day, let alone my feelin' like a fool all rigged np no when there ain't no occasion. Lyddy, she's different. Young folks ought to rig. "Now, Mis' Seavey, I don't want yon to think I'm complainin'. At my time o' life it's hard work tryin' to git into new ways. But land! you can git used to anything. It makes Lyddy happy. Poor child I It's hard for her to be penned up here in the country. There ain't a prettier-appcariu' girl in New York or Boston I'll be bound." Mrs. Soavey bounced up in wrath. Tretty appearing 1 What's pretty appearing, I'd like to know, when she's pestcrin' your life out, and just as sel fish as she can be t I've got to ran back now, for John's comin' homo to dinner, but I'm goin to stir you up a mess of rye and Injun cakes, and if you don't have some for your dinner, and a dish of tea, too, I'll come in bimeby and give your Lyddy a piece of my mind. Good-by " Off she trudged, burning with a sense of the old lady's wrongs, and trying to peep into the reconstructed best parlor as she went through the entry. The village did not think much of Lydia since she roturned from school, a tall, stylish girl, "with more airs than a music-box," as the ladies doclarod at the sewing-circle. Lydia sat quietly after tho voices had died away, no longer sleepy, but half amused, half sad. She had boon thor oughly discontented ut tho homely old farmhouse after her very modern home at school. It really seemed to her that she had shown nobleness of soul in choking down the despair in her heart and trying to make the best of things. The parlor especially she looked upon quite as an artistio triumph. But no amount of talking and scolding could put the Marcy household on a stylish footing. Flain and old-fashioned it was, and so would it remain in spite of all her efforts. " Grandma is so obstinate 1" Lydia had groaned in her own room. The little talk she had now over hcrrd put a new aspect upon it all. She saw as if a veil had fallen from her eyes how her grandmother had been sorely bewildered by tho new ideas, and how the sweet old soul had struggled si lently to come into harmony with a strange order of things with an un selfishness that made Lydia's trials seem trifling. Then she flew to the best parlor, and in a very little while had brought back its old prim order. She pushed the hair-cloth chairs back stiffly ngninst tho wall, closed the blinds at the windows and took away every J3thetic touch she liad given. Last, but not least, out of the closet nnder the stairs she dragged tho de spised portrait of hor ancestor in tho gaudy militia uniform. Laughing quietly at its grotesquenoss, sho hung this work of art up on its old nail, where it was easily tho most prominent thing m tho room. When all was done a gloomier aud more forbidding apartment had never been seen, but, just as it w.i-, grandma loved it. When the old lady aweko tho snn was streaming in across the killing-room floor and the boll was ringing for din ner. Lydia appeared in the doorway with a bright smile, prcltn'r than ever. "Come, grandma," she called, " din ner is ready, and Mrs. Seavey has just sent in little Kitty with some delicious cakes for you." A great pleasure flitted over grand ma's face as she stepped eagerly to wards the dining room, leaning on her cane. "I do believe they're rye and Injun," she exclaimed, as dolightedly as a child, helping herself from the well filled plate. " I thought perhaps you might liko a enp of tea, too," added Lydia, getting np from her place to put the cup down by her grandmother, and trying not to see the scorn of the hired girl from the city, who had a great contempt for dinner at noon and tea at dinner. Lydia laughed and chatted cheerfully until the meal was ended, and Mrs. Marcy breathed a long sigh of satisfac tion. " I declare J " Mrs. Marcy said, rising from her seat at last. " I don't know as I've ever had an'thing taste so good to me. Those cakes of Misy Seavey's were just beautiful, and I do enjoy some hot drink in the middle of the day. It kind o' goes to the spot." Lydia drow her gently along until, through the open door in the parlor, her glance fell upon grandpa's piolure back in its place on the wall. ,Why, Lyddy," she whispered, with a Itart of surprise. "Why, Lyddy !" "Yes," answered Lydia, merrily. "I suppose the parlor is better tlio way you used to have it. It goes Lot tor with the rest of the house. So I put all the things bank again as they were." Grandma's eyes wandered luiugly over the stiff and solemn room. A, mist came on her spectacles, and, as she took them off to wipe thorn, her thin old hands wore trembling ho that the could hardly hold them. "Somehow," she said to herself, with a sort of a sob in her throat, "somehow I can't help feeling as if I'd been off on a visit and was just a-gettin' home." Lydia threw her arms around her grandmother, giving her such a hug that the glassos flow across tho room and the black cap was hopeles ily un settled. "Oh, grandma!" sho criod, with a deeper meaning than grandma knew, "we've both got home, and like the peo ple in the fairy tales we're going to stay here and be happy ever afterwards." Exchange. "Bound about town" the suburb". Vegetable Dos Constrictor. Portions of the South Purine ocean produce a wonderful ppeclrs of the sea weed called the "vegetable boa constric tor." They are likely to be met with at any point botweon the lower point of southern California and tho Sandwich Islands on the one side and between Chili and Australia on the other. These vino like stf anglers are frequently found tightly entwined about the body of a dead whale, shark or porpoise, but wheth er they had fastened upon the bodies of those dead sea animals before life had become extinct or had only ventured to attack tho remains after tho vital sjiark bad fled are conumdrums which of course cannot be answered. Experiments made with this curious vine and tho car cass of a porpoise washed ashore in the harbor at Apia tend to prove that tho vino, like that of our common lean, will not entwine itself around anything dead, whother that thing be of vegetable or animal creation. Dr. Chadboumo, in his "Annals of tho Caroline Islands," says: "I have often soon monster specimens of macri cystis (tho giant seaweed) with every vestage of life squeezed out of them by that ocean demon, the constrictor vine, which is itself a species of seaweed. Macricysistis often grows to be roni 20 to 80 inches in diameter and 1.BO0 to 8,000 feet in length, while tho constrictor vine seldom exceeds 100 feet in length and is never larger in diameter than a pound and a half salmon can. It is the 'squeeze snako' of the ocean, however, and woe to the unlucky man, animal or plant that comes within its reach." St Louis Republican. The Mahdl. The mahdi's outward appearance was strangely fascinating; he was a man of strong constitution, very dark complex ion and his face always wore a pleasant smile, to which ho had, by long practice, accustomed himself. Under this smilo gleamed a set of singularly white teeth, and between the two tipper middle ones was a V shaped space, which in the Sou dan is considered a sign that tho owner will be lucky. The mahdi was well versed in the art of winning over people. His unruflled smile, pleasant manners, generosity and equable temperament, though at times somewhat severe, all tended to enhanco the popular idea of him. He attributed the execution of Said Pasha and All Bey Sherif (the vali ant defenders of El Obeid) to the Khalifa Abdullah, and whon tho two little sons of the latter were brought to him the smiling hypocrite wept for their futher's fate. The popular belief in him and his cause almost amounted to worship. Women especially raved about 1dm and thought him the moBt handsome of men. His virtues were extolled in poems, and constant reference was made to liu good looks, wisdom, stature and to his re peated victories over tho Turks. Tho beggars used to learn off by heart special laudatory verses, and by reciting them from house to house they were suro to be given alms. "Ten Yeara' Captivity in the Mahdi's Camp." Ho Threw Away the Cigar. "George," she said softly, as Bhe looked trustingly into his eyes. "Wh.".t is it, dearest?" he aaked ten derly. "Don't you think, George," she said slowly, "that you had better throw away that cigar'!1" "Do you object to einoko, pet?" ho asked. "Oh, no, George, dear George; not at nil," sho replied quickly. "I rather like the smell of a good cigar, but but" "Does yonr mother object to cigar t moke in the house?" "Oh, no; papa smokes here all tho time, but but" "But what, dearest?" "But you are so forgetful, George, and r.nd if you should forget to toko tho cignr out of your mouth you might even a slight burn on my cheek, you know, vrould cause comment." The cigar went into the grate, and a minute later thero was nothing but a blush on a fair cheek to indicate that George would take a broad hint. De troit Free Press. Longevity in England. The death rate in the Peak of Derby shire is so low that tho district rivals in salubrity the American village which was so extraordinarily healthy that the inhabitants who wished to "shuffle off this mortal coil" had to migrate into a neighboring town. The mortality at Buxton is nine per 1,000; at the adjacent hamlet of Flash it is aaid that death takes only the very young and very old, the infant and the patriarch. The sexton can almost tell whose grave he will next dig. In a similar manner at Edale, nn der the shadow of Eindcrscout, death goes by seniority. At Tideswell, also in the "Peake Coun trio," thero was, quite recently, the fu neral of a m.".r- sixty-four years of age, whose father and mother were still liv ing in the parish, having been married sixty-seven years. Sala's Journal. Mot to lie Outdone. Governor Turuey, of Tennessee, tells a good story aud has a keen appreciation of fun. Once while his regiment was in winter quarters with a Georgia regiment a religious revival was started in camp. An officer told him one day that twelve of tho Georgians had been converted. "How many of our men professed Christianity?" ho asked. "None, bir." "What! what!" ho said, "none of my men converted? It will never do for Georgia to get ahead of Tennessee Ser geant, detail eighteen of my men for bap tism at once." New York World. Merely a Ilyjiotlieils.

Great Cnre Klimilil Do Taken That Injury Dot's Not ltenult front It. Dr. E. B. Turner, in considering the question whether young children be tween the ii.-ros, say, of six and twolve, should bo allowed to cyclo, and if al lowed how nmch they may indulge in tho pastime without incurring the risk of injury, maintains that the subject is one on which no man can pronounco dogmatically or lay down strict and in variable rules concerning. What for rmo small boy or girl might bo merely liealthy and bcucfh'ial exorcise, for an other might mean physical ruin. But while each case must bo judged on its merits, ono fundamental principlo must bo clearly cnunciutod namely, that no young child with any organic weakness, whether of heart, lungs, joints or nerv ous system, should bo allowed to mount a machine under any circumstances whatever. Setting osido such natural disqualifi cations, tho exercise of cycling, properly regulated and adjusted to tho capabilities of the individual, is unquestionably ono of the best forms of recreation that can bo partaken of by children of both sexes at an early ago. It develops the body, and the self reliance and resource en tailed by the management 4)f a lnachino tend to strengthen and enlarge tho men tal and intellectual faculties. A few simple precautions, however, may insure good and avert evil results. As to the ago that a child should begin, for most children six is quite early, and even for some six is too early. Great care should be taken in choosing and fitting a ma chino to a young rid r. An old, ill fitting crock may produce deformity or disease. Two things that must be insisted on in buying either a bicyclo or a tricyclo for a young rider are that the peak of tho saddle should bo two inches behind tho crank axle, and that tho handles should be to brought t; round and back that the child can Kit perfectly upright on the machine. As to tho distance tho child may nun no nlisoiuto rule can De laid down. Overexertion must Iks carefully guarded against, and a sleepless night and a distaste fur food is one of the indi cations thnt tlio system is poisoned by the products of its own waste. It must bo remembered that excessive speed ia moro injurious than excessive distance, and excessive hill climbing than either. The conclusion arrived at by Dr. Tur ner is that a sound child, six years old, properly fitted with a machine, and rid ing in proper form and position, may cyclo within tho limits of moderation and derive benefit and suffer no harm from tho exorcise. St. Louis Globe Dcmucrut. Suprr-.tltlons of Scotrh Fishermen. Some slill existing superstitions among fishermen are communicated by a resi dent. At the beginning of the herring season tho crew all try to seize the her ring fir; t on board to see if it be a male or female. If it is a male their fishing may lie er.peeted to bo a poor one; if a fenude :i i;oid one. Sometimes, how ever, tho skipper secures it and hides it away, e.dti:ig it and laying it aside for tho season. Tho boat must notba turned against the sun.
