A great fire blared with a dariling light On tho hearth ot solid rock; Hie brighter it glonined tor the hl.irkne.-n ol storm And the sound of the ocean's shock. While he sat and talked, a bird tlew in, And over the monarch's head; llionout through the open casement again. To the wilil, dark night it sped. ''Such is lite," said the king, "from ilarkncss . to light, From sunshine to storm, without rest;" '•Yes, sire," a courtier replied, "yet the bird - Has somewhere in safety, a uost." —W. Emerton. THAT GOLDEN CURL. Perry Dayton sat in Ida stuffy little office, busily glancing over a heap of letters which that morning's post had brought for the establishment of Messrs. Park A: Ilaily. He came to one addressed in a peculiarly daintv feminine hand, and opened it with a little more curiosity than he had de signed to bestow upon the others. "Inclosed please tind invisible hair net color of hair sent. Ad dress Miss Ella Terrell, t )akha\ en. vt cetera." "Miss Ella Terrell has very lovely hair," thought the young man. ex amining the long curl attentively. It .was golden-brown, and shone radiantly in the beams of sunlight which at that particular moment came pouring in at the little window. "Perhaps, though, it is n >t !cr own nair." However, he laid the letter and soft coil aside, resolving to match that in visible net himself. It was very strange, but a vision <>f a young lady with golden-brown hair would keep intruding itself between his eyes and the remaining letter-. {Sometimes brown eyes a<■■ -ompanicd the hair, sometimes blue.

Why, •Perry, nM Ih>v, you're cb'on gone!" to 'exclaimed, tossing the offending mis sive into the waste basket. Inclosing the article in a wrapper, rie addressed it. and 1 lid if with simi lar parcels on a shelf, at the same time consigning the etirl to his vc-t pocket. "Of course you are aware, Mr. Day ton, that some one must go north shortly to attend to that business in Liverpodl; and as we have found you faithful in the discharge of yourduties, and place the utmost confidence in your judgment, Mr. Ilaily and myself have decided that you are the one to go." Thus spoke the senior partner, com ing into the office where Perry was sitting. This happened a few months later. Perry's beaming face fully ex pressed his appreciation of this mark of esteem. • He was to start in two ,U; s. This was Thursday. The next Wednesday morning found our friend taking breakfast at the Adelplu hotel, Liver pool. The business would probably keep liiin there a month or so. He had plenty of leisure time, ami devoted it to viewing the sights. One evening he enter-sl the office of a young fellow connected with the business house of Park \ Ilaily, and 1 found him making an clalHirate toilet. "Why this unusual and unnatural regard for thy appearance, o Treve lyn?" he exclaimed, advancing into the room w here liis friend stood. J "I am going to a party. Don't you vvant to come?" "Yes. Where is it "At Old Swan, four miles away. We will take the cab at eight pre cisely.** Trevelyn was well-known and liked 1 at Old Hwan. He had livtsl there several years, and so it was that Perry was presented to some of the nicest ' people in the place. He was talking with Mrs. Langdon when lie discovered that Trevelyn was dancing with a very pretty young lady. Bhe had dark eyes, a small oval face, and was dremieri in some airy, floating material. Hut Iter hair attracted his attention particularly. It reminded )iilit of a curly lock which lie hail car ried ulmiit for several months. And then slie wore an invisilijc net, which was probably what caused him to mm on Ist that other lock. "Don't, you agree with me, Mr. Day ton ?" "Oli, yes, indeed!" he said, having not the slightest idea of what Mrs. Langdon was talking about. The waltz came to an end at last, and the two found their way to where our friends were seated. "Won't you introduce me to the fair dancer?" Dayton asked at the earliest opportunity. "Was Miss Terrell engaged for the next dance?" A glance at a dainty programme proved the contrary. "Might he have the pleasure?" "M." "What a delightful turn that was! Dayton had never enjoyed anything so much. He had some thought of tell ing Miss Terrell that a lock of that mass iif wavy hair was at that moment lodged in Lis pocket. A propitious fate permitted him to dance again with Iter during the evening, strut even to accompany tlu-ir party to supper. The text day Trevelyn and Dayton called to pay their respects at the Terrell mansion. This was not the la-t time. And then Perry I<dl Into the habit of going without Trevelyn. The weeks slipped awav ipiietly, and at length Perry discovered that lie was madly, wilillv, hopelessly in love with the lair owner of the fateful net. One day there was to lie a picnic. Nature extended herself to the utmost on till- particular occasion. No one had ever expericncisl a more delight, fully pure atmosphere. How fresh everything looked' how sweetly the birds > mg' A uncling road through the trees lisl them at length to just the place they were looking for. Then came the bustle of alighting and col. lecting the baskets, and all sat down for a general i hat before going off in exploring parties. The ddights of pienies were being warmly discussed, when a find gentleman on horseback was seen appr • a hmg through the tree- at one side. He -seined in no wise disconcerted by numerous pair- of eyes bent Upon ti i in. "Why. I'eggy. where did y>>u i rune from ?" cried Mis- Ella, prettily, while the pater et mater shook him warmlv by the hand. "I found my-elf able to In- with yoit earlier than I expected. They told me you were all booki-d for tin- day -o I determined to follow -siut." "It is s i nice that you happened to rone-,n this part c olor ilay' We are going to have such a nice day!" -aid Mrs. Terrell. "I'm let - i sure of that." soldo <pii/ed Dayton, gloomily, remarking 11 o w plea si-1 Kiln seemed at the advent of this stranger. "Mr. Dayton Mr. lir ydon."i auie at last, and our friend found the keen gray eyes giving him a searching look during the process of a graceful low. "I think Princess would thank me for a drink of water." And tirevdon pr.xeisl.sl to lead the handsome animal to the stream a few steps off. Ella, excusing hi'self, gracefully accompanied Mr. Lreydon. Already daggers of jealousy seemed piercing Dayton's heart. "When is tlm wedding to come off?" lie heard some one ask Mrs. Terrell. "It is not (Jlllte deeded Vet; not lief ore August." "Then they are engaged! Why didn't soliie one tell lite liefore I made siuli an utter fool of myself?" Day ton groarc-l Everyone thought this precise moment a suitable time for exploring tours, and separated into groups. The p'ir fellow* wamlerisl off by himself, he did ret care whither. His brain seemed on tire. lie was desper ately in love. Why had -lie always seemed so p|e.l-s| fo see hiIII ? lie had thouglit s*i differently of lier! What an idiot he was to go on loving the girl' t Hie who could act so falsely was not worthy of Ids affection. These were .some of bis cxcitisl thoughts. . He would go back. He would show Iter that the stranger's presence made not the slightest difference to him. He turned hastily, and discovered that he had wandered some distance- Arrived at the spot, he found Miss Ella, evidently much fatigued, alone. He approached, ami made a remark atmut the weather. O, common place young man! "I was just wishing for some one to come, and had a vague idea that the nymph of the stream might venture to show* herself if no one else ap peared." she said, languidly, fanning Iter (laming cheeks. "I will retire in favor of the nymph." "No; I would rather see you now, having no energy left for the con templation of naiads." Dayton's face lighbsl up for an in stant, and then resumed its gloomy expression I "Mr. (Jreydon has gone, and I stip |Kwe every one else is off enjoying ; themselves," continued KUa. "I thought Mr. (Jreydon was a tlx ; tare; had eoine on purpose to see you —that is " '"Dear nil', no!' laughed Kiln, "lie Is on his way to my Aunt lluttie's.who Uses at Liverpool. He is to marry my cousin in August, and only stopped here tocoasult papa about something." "Miss Terrell Klla dear Klla! I have been such a fool!" Of course no right-minded person would like to intrude on the con versa, tion which followed; suffice it to say that two weddings came off in August instead of one, and one happy pair ! consisted of Klla Terrell and Mr. Kerry Dayton.

Tho compendium of the "Tenth Census," a volume of 17<JD jiagen, con tains, among other things, a summary of tlio rejxirt of Mr. Frederick 11. j Wines upon the defective, dej.cndcnt, and ilelinquent classes. The most striking result of the work was the aj>- | jiarently great increase in the niiml.cr of those included in the three classes j named. The number of insane persons idiots, blind jtersons, and deaf-mutes, ' as shown by the several censuses, was 50,'J94 in iH.Mt; r.H,4.M in ISM; DH.SS4 I in IH7<, and 'Jol.'i'JH in IHH<. In other words, although the population has a | little more than doublisl in thirty years, the number of defective jieraons rcturm-d is apparently nearly live tim*s as great as it was thirty years ago. The increase of pojmlution between 1 h7o and IHHi was only thirty j.er cent., while the apparent increase of j these defective classes was l.V'i per j cent. While there wi-re only 2.V.4 d-- fis-tive jiersotis in each million in IH7", there were r"18 in each million in I**o. Mr. Wines says that it is iin- j jH.ssjble to believe that there lias, in ] I.let, l.een sogreatati increase. Kitlier tin* enumeration in lis*o was excessive or the enumeration iti l*7'i wimlncom* j p|etThe bureau was assist.-.! in the I work by *",(** i physicians, and Mr. Wines Im lieves that a much more jier fcet enumeration of the defective .lasses, csjns i.iUv of the insane and idiotic, has l.een secured than was ever M-forc )ir.~-efit.sl in tli- fci-dnry .f this or any othi-r nation, Of the in sane persons forty-four j r < enb were in h.rsj.itaU ami asylum-; of 7i,ny!i ! idiots three | r cent, were in training schools f■ >r tin- fe'-lil.-.mill.lc| ; ..f til.'.rjh I blind j.ers..ns, b->- than f• >ur and a half p.-r cent, w. re in schools and Indus* I trial lioim - for the blind, and .TI.H7* inut.-s, nearly sixteen j..-r e.-nt .were mi Schools established for tin 111. I'f the deaf p.r->.us, one-half were M-twcen the ages of tive and twenty-one, but j not more than one sixth of th<* lilitei were Is-twcen those ages. It appears that insanity atta- ks women more fr.spieutlv than it d.s-s 1 men, but men <>n the other hand are more lial.le to Im- idiot j. . blind or deaf. ■ The negro imputation is mudi in-.r.- j liable to Idiocy than insanity. Ih-th the m-gr-. and tto* foreign |*pii!atmn are singularly more liabb t-. blindness than to deafin-ss. The tendency of the foreign |M>pu|ati.>n to insanity is especially w-.rthy of atti'tiion.
