When daylight dm kens Ihe skies,
When evening shadows fall,
Alone, I watch Willi dreaming ejes

Alone, I listen to the feed
That In eiinllntious kIiciiiii
Pursue- each tithtr on the street
And mingle with my drcntii.
Nunc ot them slop, with wltt desite.
To enter at my doofi
I dim my lump.andstlr my fire
For homeward feet ho luoie,
Yet, wllh n trick of lightening'
Cnutght long nnd long ago,
I seem to bear tho welrnnio ring
Of some I used to kiiow.
Where are Ihe wnndcilng to-night;
What breadth ot land nnd sen
Lies dim nnd empty of delight
Betwixt my'lovo and me?
Perchance, with green earth ovcn.prend,
flo sleeps n dreamless sleep,
Or toslnjrnves nbovs his head
Their ceaseless mill ninr keep.
Never nn echo from bis heart
Has found Its way to inlue;
Yet, as Ihe red coals drop npnit,
With shifting if(xn and shine,
Ills face loolrt through the dancing lire,
Wild dreams dance through my brain.

And clasps me close again I
O Islon sweet that day dlpcll

That might not envy me,
Sometimes I think -but why recall
A thought too vain to lust?
The flrellgl t nickers on the wall,
The footsteps have gone past.
WHY WOHFN SWIM WELL.
The records of the humane societies on
both sides of Ilia Atlantic show that of lntc
years a fair proportion of their medals fall
to the lot of clrls. Thero were several
notable instances of rescue from drowning
last summer by girls under twenty jcars of
asc. Many women arc accomplished
swimmers. This is but natural. As their
bones are Generally lighter than those of
men, and thilr flesh more buoyant, they
have less difllcnlty to overcome in acqulr
mg the art. Some of them could float at
their first attempt, if the could acquire the
requisite faith in the. power of the water to
hold them up.
Swimming is yery much an art of faith,
for ll Is generally the case that when a
person believes sufficiently in the buoyanct
Of the water to trust to It his precious body,
io; no is a swimmer, mere were young
girls at Newport last summer who could
float on tho surface of the ocean with no
more difficulty than thoy experienced In
ljinit upon a sofa. They could liave floated
for hours If necessary. Some of the most
famous swimming feats havo been ac
complished by very young women.
WE'VE SAID THE SAME. ,
Now and then we see a boy smoking
tobacco In the etrect.
II e saw thrco boys' between twelve and
font teen years old doing so on the Bowciy.
Neir ork. Two of them had 'burning
clgarclles In their mouths, aud one of
them smoked a pipe. They were out
showing off.
Don't learn to smoke, boys!
It Is n poor foolish habit
It Is a wastcf till habit, In which Oo&
money is spent for had weed.
It is an unwholesome bablt, harmful to
tho lungs, which take In thcnlr defiled by It.
It is a habit I bat often gives offense to
the fair sx and to the mothers of many

It Is an unclean habit.
So, dear boys, don't learn to smokcl

lint thn demon of unsatisfied longing to

"(Jlarltiel, ' said he, "are you sure you

from tho old belfry tower, echoing' along

dying slowly away In the great valloys. It
Is the gray dawn of n November day. A
leaden sky bends low above me. and a
heaY mist Is on tho hills. There Is a rustle
of dry leaves under my feet, and a smell of
dead herbage along my path. As tho

an cast wind catches tho voice, and, bear-
Inn It far and wldo, tells to tho dwellers tn

"Only a beggar," then, who has taken
the wings of the morning and fled to the
bores of Eternity? "Only a beggar," who
since last the shades of nisht gathered
about the earth, has gone from the gloom
of a terrestrial sphere whither? Ah, there
lies the mystery. That soul, low and Ig
norant as It may have been, knows more
this morning of tbo mighty enigma of Life
and death more of tho grand secret of
eternity, than a llfo time of study can oyer
teach lis Jt knows to-day, what wc shall
never know until the grim gales which
divide tlmo from eternity shall open and
close for us.
"Only a beggar!" Up from the green
hills of Judea, carried by angels to Abra
ham'u bosom, a soul once passed to glory.
As the shining gates flew back, and the
victorious spirit was borne up to tho great
wbito throne, think you the' angelic wel
oonie was one note fainter that Lazarus
bad come from a miserable pallet at the
gate of Dives?
"Only a begssar!" but the eauie road
over which the beggar's soul has goue.your
soul, my friend, and mine,, will havo to go.
Wealth and position are very pleasant sur
roundings in this life, but wo shall come,
presently, to where a dark river crosses our
path, a river whoso deep waves none of
our earthly devices will help us to cross.
Silver and gold arc not current coin with
the silent boatman who spreads bis white
canvas to the chill winds of that river,
Death never asks whether the trembling
voyager bo a beggar or a king. Standing
far out on that solitary shore, with the
rushing of that mighty tido in our ears,
aud Us cold waters flowing over our feet:
with all of life hut our sins behind us,
and before, au endless eternity, whose very
endlessness Isan Incompiehcnslble mystery
standing on thai Drink and stretching out
weak arms icto the darkness, groping for
aid, shall we not feel that wo are beggars,
and very poor beggars, Indeed?
Gently, thcu cross the tired hands above
the weary breast: there is no more weari
ness for hands or heart to-day. Close soft
ly the pale thin lips, those lips havo asked
an alms for tho last time. Fasten down
the coffin lid, and lap tho poor man away
to bis rest, (rather him to his grave In
peace, that peace denied to none, vouch
safed In mercy to all, rich and poor, who
die In .the Lord. Julia Hamilton.

THE SEDUCER- HIR VICTIM.
The seducer! Playing upon 'the most
sacred affection, ho betrays Innocence.
How? Ily its noblest faculties; by its trust;
by its unsuspecting faith, by Us honor.
The victim, often and often. Is not the ac
complice so much as tho sufferer, betrayed
by an exorcism which bewitch her nobles)
affections to become the suicide of her vir
tues. The betrayer, for tho most Intense
selfishness, without one motive, without
ono prelense of honor by lies;, by a dcyll
Ish jugglery of fraud; by bllnd'ng tho ryes,
confusing tho conscience, misleading tho
judgment, ami Instilling tho dew of sorcery
upon every (lower of sweet affection -deliberately,
heat tlessly damns the confiding
victim. Is there one shade of good Inten
tion, one glimmering trace of light? Not
one. There was not the most shadowy,
tremulous intention of honor. It was a
8ljeer, pi cmed Haled, wholesale ruin, from
beginning Io end. The accursed sorcerer
opens tho door ot the world to push her
forth, bbe looks out nil shuddering; for
there is shame and sharp-toothed hatred
and chattering slander, and malignant
envy, and triumphiug jealousy, and old ro
yeugo these are boru but will not kill,
Aud thero is fur her want, and poverty and
gaunt famine. Thero Is the world spread
out; she sees father and mother heartless
ly abandoning her, a brother's shame, a
sister's anguish. It Is a vision of desola
tion; a plundered home, an altar where
honor and purity and pcaco have been In
sidiously sacrificed Io the foul Moloch. All
Is cheerless tho eye, and her ear c.Uclits
the sounds of sighing and mourning, walls
and laments: and far down, at tbo boiizon
of the vision, the murky cloud for a mo
ment lifts, and she sees the very bottom of
Infamy, the ghnslllness of death, Hie spasm
of horrible departure, tbo awful thunder of
final doom, All this the trembling, be
t rated creature, sees through the open door
of tho future; and with a voice that might
move the dead, she turns and clasps his
knees In awful agony; "Lcayo mo not I
Ohl spare me save me cast me not

ished scoundrel betrayed her to abandon
her, and walks the street to boast bis hell

wolfe, to seek out the bleeding lamb. Oh,
my soul; believe it not I What sight is
that? The drooping victim is worso used
than the Infernal destroyer. Hois fondled,
courted, passed from honor to honor! and
sho Is crushed and mangled under the In
furiated tramp of public Indignation! On
her mangled corpse they stand to put the
laurels on her murderer's brow. H'hcn I
sco such things as those, I thank God there
