A SHADOW.
"In perfect love Is perfect trust,"
So says a maxim old;
And yet the saying Is not fast,
When all the tale Is told.
Thero never yet a love was born
Into this world, without
A silent shadow on Its dawn
The shadow of a doubt
A shadow which Is scarcely seen,
And yet as swiftly flics
As objects which may como between
Our vision and the skies,
And vanish, leaving In their track
No token and no trace,
Nor ever In their paths turn back
To mar the day's sweet grace.
But through the shadows that are past,
Through all love's wavering doubt,
The perfect trust shall dawn at last,
To cast tho shadows out,
Thoughdarkenlng clouds, which ovtrbrood,
Tho sunlight shall appear,
And love's transcendent Interlude
Shall banish every foar.
OH, HEART t
Oh, heart that beats as other hearts
Have beat of yore I
I linger here for her, my love,
Outside of her father's door.
I look and watch, and, waiting, yearn
To see her at tho gates,
And know with lovo's full tidal turn
My being palpitates,
Thero Is a beauty In tho night,
A glory In each star.
I wait hor coming, fur the light
Which bcameth still afar
Tho love-light which shall shed Its rays
Across tho coming hours,
And over all the futuro days
Shall scatter fadeless flowers.
Sho comes I stio comes 1 Tho air grows bright!
Her loving face I see ;
And even night Is no more night I
When sho Is hero with mo.
Oh, stars of heaven I with Joy look down
Upon our perfect bliss.
Sho crowns my life with lovo's pure crown,
And gilds It with hor kiss.
THE BRAMANAT CHURCH-
On the road onco more, with Lebanon
fading away In tlio distance, tho fat passen
ger drumming idly on tho window pane,
tho cross passenger sound asleep and the tall
thin passenger reading Gen. Grant's Tour
Around tho World, and wondering why
Green's August Flower should bo printed
above the doora of "A Buddhist Tcmplo at
Benares." To mo comes tho brakcman,and
seating himself on tho arm of a scat says:
"I went to church yesterday."
"Yes?" I said, witii that interested inflec
tion (bat asks for more. "And what church
did you attend?"
"Which do you uess 1" ho asked.
"Some union mission church?" I hazard
ed.
Now," ho said, "I don't like to run on
theso branch roads very mucin I don't
often go to church, and when I do I want
to run on the mam line, where your run is
regular and you goon schedulo timo and
don't hayo to wait on connections. I don't
like to run on a branch. Good enough, but
I don't liko it."
Episcopal?" I guessed.
Limited express," lie Bald, "all palaco
cars and two dollsrs extra for a scat, fust
time and only stop at tho big stations. Nice
line, hut too cxhauslivo for a brakeman.
All trainmen iu uniform, conductor's punch
and lantern silver plated, ami no train boys
allowed. Then the passengers are allowed
to talk back to tho conductor, and it makes
them too freo and easy. No, I coujdn't
stand tho palaco cars. Rich road, though
Don't often hcor of a receiver being ap
pointed on that line. Some mighty rich
people travel on it, too."
"Universalisl ?'' I suggested .
"Broad guago," said the brakeman; "does
too much complimentary busincs. Every
body travels on a pass. Conductor doesn't
get a fare onco in fifty years. Stops at all
flag Etations and won't run into anything
but a union depot. No smoking car on this
train. Train orders arc rather vague
though, and tho train men don't get along
well with the passengers. No, I don't go
to the Universalis., though I know some

"Presbyterian ?" I asked.
"Narrow guago, eh ?" said tho brakeman)
"pretty track, straight as a rule, tunnel
right through n mountain rather than go

have to show their tickets before they get

there is no stopover tickets allowed ; got to
go straight through totho station you're
ticketed for, or you can't get on at all.
When the car's full no extra coaches j cars
built at the shops just to hold so many and
nobody else allowed on. But you don't of

run right up to the rules."
"May bo you joined the Free Thinkers?"
I said.
"Scrub road," eald tho brakeman, "dirt

the passengers. No, sir, I wasoOered a pass,
but I don't like the line. I don't like to
travel on a road that has no terminus. Do
you know, sir, I asked a division superin
tendent where that road run to, and he
hoped todie if ho knew. I asked him if
the general superintendent could tell me,
and he said ho didn't believe they had a
general superintendent, and if they had ho
didn't know anything more about the road
than the passengsrs. I asked him who ho
reported to and he said nobody. I asked
a conductor who he got his orders from,and
he said he didn't take orders from any liv
ing man or dead ghost. And when I asked
the engineer who he got his orders from, bo
said he'd like to see anybody give him op
tiers ; he'd run that train to suit himself or
be'd run her In tho ditch. Now you see, sir,
I'm a railroad man, and don't care to run
on a railroad that has no time, or makes no

While traveling through Switzerland, re
cently, with his wife, a physician, resident
ofGratz, witnessed a small railway station
within tho Helvetian frontier a truly tragi
cal and thrilling episode of domestic life,
which he has imparted to tlio leadingjourn
al of his native town. A young doctor, re
cently appointed to tho post of town phy
sician in tho Swis3 bourg, which became
the scene of tho tragedy, had for somo years
carried on a liaison with a married lady.
Shortly after his appointment, however, ho
contracted a matrimonial alliance with a
young lady of respectable family, and was
just starting upon his wedding trip with his
bride, when his former mistress appeared in
tho station, and flung herself down upon
the rails as the train commenced to move.
Tlio engino passed over her body, mangling
it horribly, and the bridegroom was sum
moncd iu his medical capacity to tho spot
where the uufortunato woman's remains
had been deposited. Unnerved by tho ter
rible sight, ho uttered a loud cry and fell
upon tho platform in a state of insonsibility.
Somo of the bystanders acquainted his bride
with tlio cause of the suicido committed al
most bofore her eyes, whereupon sho turned
with loathing from tho senseless form of
her husband, and at onco went back to her
father's house, leaving Dr. to tlio in
dignation of tho crowd assembled in the
railway station. A spirited endeavor was
made to lynch him, from which he was res
cued with great difficulty by tho polico and
station officials. To rompleto the horrors of
this dismal story, the husband of tlio un
fortunate lady who perished under the
wheels of the locomotive went raving mad
upon hearing of her awful death and its
cause, and is at present the inmate of a
lunatic asylum.

Not long ago a well-known collector of
curiosities In Tarls, who had devoted con
siderable sums of money to tho gathering
together of bank notes of all countries and
all values, became the possessor of a Dank
of England five-pound note, to which an
unusually strange story was attached. This
note was paid into a Liverjiool merchant's
oflico In the ordinary way of business Bixty
one years ago, and its recipient, the cashier
of the firm, while holding it to the light to
test Its genuineness, noticed some faiut red
marks ujwn it which, on closer examina
tion, proved to be semi-effaced words,
scrawled in blood between the printed lines
and upon the blank margin of the note.Ex
traordinary pains were taken to decipher
these partly obliterated characters, and
eventually tlio following sentenco was made
out : "If this note should fall into the bands
of John Dean, ofLonghill, near Carlisle, he
will learn hereby that his brother is lan
Euisliing a prisoner Iu Algiers." Mr. Dean
was promptly communicated with by the
holder of tber note, and he appealed to the
Government of the day for assistance In his
endeavor to obtain his brother's' release from
captivity. Tho prisoner, who, as It eubso
quently appeared.had traced tho above sen
tenco upon the note with a splinter of wood
dipped in his own blood, had been a slavo
to the Dey of Algiers for clevon yearj, when
his strango missiye first attracted attention
in a Liverpool counting-house. His family
and friends had long beliovcd him dead.
Eventually his brother with tho aid of a
British authority in the Mcdltorrauean, suc
ceeded in ransoming him from the Dey, and
brought him home to England, where be
did not long survive his release, bis consti
tution having been Irreparably injured by

Somo two years ago a physician In town
was called to visit a patient Hying out of the
village. Ho drove out, and as ho was hitch

woman with a child in her arms came out.
They greeted each other, and she said,
"Oh, you are tho doctor como to seo grand'
mother. She's pretty tick. You'll find her
In (he house." Ho went in and found a
woman about -10, who said : "You will find
grandmother in that way." In tho room
to which ho was directed he found an aged,
white-haired lady lying on the bed. She
was quite deaf, and did not notice his ap
proach until he sat down and began to feel
her pulse. She turned and said, "Ob, you
are the doctor. I am not sick. It's mother
you waut to see. You will find her in the
next room." So into the next room he
passed, and at last ho was in tho presence
of his patient, whoso daughter, grand
daughter, grcat-grand-daughter, and great-great-grand-daughtcr
bo had encountered.

(3IIEAT n.oop.
One morning waler for washing wai
brought to Manu, and when ho had washed
himself a fish remained Ic his hands, and
it addressed theso words to him i "Protect
mo and I will save thee" "From what
wilt thou save me 1" "A deluge will sweep
all creatures away ; It is from that I will
savo thee." "How (hall I protect thee ?"
Tho fish replied : "Whllo we are small wo
run great dangers, for fish swallow fish.
Keep mo at first In a vase; when I become
too large for it, dig a basin to put me into.
When I shall havo grown still more, throw
mo into the ocean ; then I shall bo preserved
from destruction." Soon it grew a large
fish. It said to Manu: "The vory year
I shall have reached my full growth the
deluge will happen. Then build a large
vessel and worship me. When the water
riso enter tho vessel and I will save thee."
After keeping him thus, Manu carried tha
fish to the eca. In tho year Indicated Manu
built a vessel and worshipped tho fisb. And
when tho Delugo came bo entered tho ves
sel. Then tho fish came swimming up to
him, nnd Manu fastened tho cable of tha
ship to the horn of tho fish, by which meant
tho latter made it pass over tbo Mountain
of the North. The fish said, "1 have saved
thee ; fasten tho vessel to a tree that the wa
ter may not sweep it awoy while thou art on
tho mouutaiu; and in proportion as tho wa
ters decrcaso thou shalt descend." Manu
descended with the waters, and this is what
is called tho descent of Manu on the Moun
tain of tlio North. Tho Deluge had carried
away all creatures, and Manu remained
alone.
A CIIAiniED SOLDIEU.
Ex-Sergeant Ignaco Hofl,tho well-known

Ho is now, and deservedly, tho most popu

ed every distinction and substantial recom
mendation which it is In the jwwer of a
thankful nation to bestow, and is to bo pre
sented with a splendid rifle by publio sub
scription. But it is none tho less a fact and
a painful ono that when he wus made a pris
oner by tbo Germans, at tho battlo of Cham
piguy, tho rumor obtained currency that he
was only a Prussian in disguise, who bad
found at last a convenient opportunity of
making good his escape. At that time, bo
i( noted, tlio man had been for more than
six weeks .footing, upon an average, one
German a day. In view of tho crowds of
Parisian admirers brought to tho outposts
by Iho renown of his prowess, ho had him
self received more than 20 bullets in hit
uulform, to thoextcntof havingslx or seven
times to petition fora new suit, without ever
being wounded. There was In his extra
ordinary good luck, as well as his unerring
skill, something truly wonderful, which
caused for him iu a few, days quite a repu
tation. HE wOK THE ItliT.
A mesmerist at Hartford found a orowd

that ho could eo place him under mesmeric
inlluenco that, with his finger on his nose,
ho could not leave tbo room without taking
his finger down. Tbo other man took the
bet. Tho mesmerist made him shut his
eyes, made a few passes about him, put the
victim's arm around an iron post, nnd made
the hand grasp tho nose of tho man. Then
with a few more mystic passes, he told him
to open his eyes. Tbo crowd awarded the

A RAKE FEAT OF COURAGE.
A brave lad has just performed a rare
leat of courage, common sense and prcsenco
of mind in Berlin, in tho presencoof very
few observers. A milk cart, containing no
ono but a littlo girl about three years old,
was being wildly dragged along the Muh
lcnstrasse, by a furious horse, and no one
da red to rush at the bridle of the galloping
beast. A boy, apparently not more than
thirteen years eld, sprang forward, and roll
ing a large empty tub, which was standing
at a shop door, into the center of tbo road.
This brought the horse to an instant's pause,
and when be tried to pass at Its side the boy
seized the bridle and hung on, at the same
moment throwing up bis legs, and clasping
them tightly round tho horse's neck. This
heavy burden in so unusual a placo brought
the terrified horso to a stand still, and the
bystanders hurried up, and Jjfted the little
girl out of the cart. While all manner of
questions and soothing speeches were being
addressed to her, the hero of tho action
quietly slipped away, no one'knowing his
name or dwelling.
. DIFFERENCE IN WOMEN.
A young married woman from England,
who had remained long enough in this
country to feel perfectly at home, told a
lriend that English timidity so clung to htr
that sho could hardly go into Boston, five
miles, to do her shopping, without having
ber husband or brother to escort her on tha
railway. Tho difference between her and
the American woman who,t a call of duty
or even pleasure, would take her traveling
bag and set off for Colorado without fear of
harm is hardly greater than tbe difference
between tbo tongue-tied women of fifteen
years ago, in reform meetings, and tho vot
ing women of to-day.
ANECDOTE OF HOVALTV.
The lady who Is now Crown Princess of
Germany was, as tbe child Princess Royal
of Britain, a veritable "little witch." A
certain distinguished physician, who was
often called to Windsor, was always famil
iarly addressed by tbe merry child as
"Brown." In vain tho Queen tried to In
duce ber small daughter to grace Brown'
name with some sort of prefix. At length
she was peremptorily informed that if she
ever again ventured to maka use of this un
ceremonious style of address, the punish
ment would be an instant dismissal to bed.
The physician reappeared In a day or two,
and was greeted by the young lady with
these words t "Good morning, Brown, and
good night, too, Brown, for I'm off to bed,"
and tha at onco "beat a retreat."
