JOB'S COMFORTER.
BY CAROI.UI P. MtEBTON.
Ur to the Rye of forty, Job Pendleton
was a hachclor. There were some who
thought he would always remain so, but
in bo thinking thpy did not allow for the
fiipclnatlon of widowhood.
Mr. IV ndluton met Mrs. Gray during a
brief sojourn at Conway, a delightful vil
lage among the White Hills. It might
have been the beauty of the season and
the surrounding scenery that made him
. more than usually impressible.
At all events, certain it was, that he
soon got into the habit of taking a walk
every morning, but not alone. Mrs. Gray,
with her mountain hat half covering her
face, was always ready to accompany nltn.
Before going any further, let me des
cribe Mrs. Gray. She had been pretty as
a girl, and at thirty-seven she was still
a good-loeklng woman. I have incau
tiously named tier age. None to judge of
Iter fresh complexion would have taken
her for more than thirty. She snl.iom or
never spoke of Mr. Gray. Mr. Pendleton
somehow conceived the Idea that she had
not been happy in her first marriage, but
felt too delicate to question her on the
subject. He felt sure If such were the case
it wn not the fanlt of Mrs. Gray.
In the midst of Mr. Pendleton's enjoy
ment, he received a letter from his em
ployerhe was book-keeper of a city firm
summoning him to the city. He com
municated this intelligence to Mrs. Gray
on the next walk. He thought she sighed.
" I do not dare to think you will miss
me," be said.
She put her delicate handkerchief to her
eyes, and, with a voice broken by emo
tion, faltered out :
" Indeed I shall, Mr. Pendleton. Con
way will lose its attraction for me after
you are gone."
Mr. Pendleton brightened up.
"Perhaps I have said more than I
should," said the widow, bashfully look
ing down. ' But it's so seldom that I
meet with a congenial soul that I forget
myself in the pleasure of their company."
"Dear Mrs. Gray," said Pendleton in a
little trepidation, " although our acquaint
ance nas neen onet, to me it lias Deen so
ple isant that I wish it would always last."
"You are very kind," murmured Mrs.
Gray.
"I have never till now met a woman to
whon I felt I could safel v contide mv hai
piness. Our acquaintance ha been most
linnpv. Mrs. Gray, will you become my
wue."
Mr, Pendleton telt an answering pres
sure irom tne nana winch lie new, and
without other response he knew his suit
had been favorably received.
Whether it was at the widow's sugges
tion or his own, Mr. Pendleton could not,
ior tne lite 01 mm tell, but somehow be
lore the interview was over It was mutu
ally agreed that the marriage should be
celebrated that very day. so that he would
return to Ins business a married man. Ac
cordingly they proceeded to a neighbor
ing clergyman, by whom the ceremony of
ciiaugiiig iirs. uray s name was speedily
effected.
There might have been a look of tri
umph in the new Mrs. Pendleton's eyes
but, if so. Job didn't see it. lie was onlv
too happy in the thought of presenting to
ins menus so cnarming a woman as Mrs
Pendleton. He was very comDlacent in
the thought of the surprise and envy he
wuuiu oeeus on.
1 hern was one request made by his
bride that seemed a lirtle singular. She
wished him to go to Boston by himself,
and she would follow in three days. When
heremonstrated.she urged that the change
was so new and sudden that she had not

morning she would s'art for the city (it

bade farewell to his wife, and, as in the
solitude of his old bachelor days, wended
his way to the counting-room of Messrs.
Jones & Pendergrast, i is employers.
Arrived in the city, Mr. Pendleton stud
ied assiduously the advertisements under
the head "lo Let." At last he came up
on the following i.otice :
"To Let Furnished. A email bouse containing
Ave rooms. The owner is obliged to move to a
Hcminern cnme ior tne benellt ol his health. Very
desirable ior u small fumily. Immediate posses
sion will be H'veu."
"That will be the very thing," thought
Mr. Pendleton. "It will be much better
to live snugly in a small house than to be
cooped up in a boarding-hou.-e. And I
don't think it will beany more expensive,
which is certainly a consideration, for my
income is not very large."
Mr. Pendleton accordingly sought out
the landlord, and soon concluded an ar
rangement tor the house. He dispatched
a letter to Mrs. Pendleton, it Conway,
which he judged would be sure to reach
her before she left. When the lady received
the letter, she said to herself,
"I only hope the house will be large
enough."
W by there should be any doubts in her
mind considering that there were only
two of them is certainly surprising ; but
perhaps future events will show what she
meant.
According to Mr. Pendleton's pro
gramme, his wife, on reaching the Boston
depot, was to hire a hack to carry her im
mediately to the house provided" for her.
This was because he would te so occupied
by business cares that he would not be
able to spare the time.
About six o'clock, Saturday afternoon,
Job left his couiring-rootn with a light
heart. lie knew that his wife must be al
ready in the city. He ran up the steps of
his modest dwelling, and, without the
ceremony of ringing, entered. He turned
the knob of the right-hand door which led
to the sitting-room. Before he could open
it there seemed a scampering and rush of
many feet. Could his wife have company
so soon? But on opening the door no one
was visible but Mrs. Pendleton, late Mrs.
Gray, There seemed to be a tittle luore
th ui ordinary Hush upon her brow. But
Joo did not notice it. lie advanced hastily,
and bade her a cordial welcome to her
new home. When he had time to look
around him, he noticed a small cap lying
" Mary," said he playfully, " how long
is it since you have Ui.cu to wearing boys'
capsi1"
" By the way," returned his wife, " that
reminds me, 1 have a little surprise in
store for you."
" Indeed !" said Job amiably. Come
I am all curiosity." '
" Excuse me a moment."
Mrs. Pendleton hurried out of the room
but quickly returned too quickly alas I
for her husband's peace of mind. Behind
came, ranging downward like a row of
stair, six children three boys and three
girls the two oldest boys with their
hands iu their pockeis, the. youngest irirl
with her Auger in her mouth.
Mr. Tendieton rose in consternation,
and glar.U wildly at the children.

to cry because he had only one cent, and
tried to get it away from his brother.
Thereupon ensued a pugilistic contest,
which terminated In both boys being
locked In th closet.
"Hoys will te boys," remarked Mrs.
Pendleton philosophically. " It's rather

A Little Virginia Romance.
At Petersburg, In the yellow fever year,
say two decades ngo, when the terrible
disease was brought thither from Norfolk
by a panic-stricken fugitive from the lat
ter city, a certain family had but two sur
vivors from the pest, a little girl, and an
uncle of hers who had dwelt in the house
hold as nurse. The uncle had bravely
remained at his post while his brother
and sister-in-law were dying; but upon
finding himself left in the stricken home
at last with only his little niece to keep
him company, and that, while the fatal
fever yet ravaged all around, he suddenly
suffered a reaction of cowardice, and af
ter placing the orphan in the care of a
neighbor for a day fled hurriedly from the
town 110 one knew whither. Like many
another fugitive at that time, he might
have remained with safety, for the disease
abated rapidly thenceforth. Gone, he
had, however, and when it was apparent
that he would not return perhaps had
sunk and died in the contagion elsewhere
the deserted child's lonely and helpless
situation excited much public spmpathy,
resulting at last In her acquisition of an
unexpected benefactor. Among the be
reaved of the city was a wealthy lady
whom sorrow had made a mother for the
motherless, and she In her sanctified
womanliness, adopted the poor orphan,
without reservation, as her own. Thus
the little heroine entered upon a life in
which all things seem to have been so
sufficient for her every need that, but for
the one ungracious memory . of her
childish trials, there might be no ro
mance, even to the record of her subse
quent years. It chanced, however, that
about 1858 some unkjiown bearer brought
to her a letter without address from her
long-absent uncle, wherein the writer
humbly implored pardon for his abrupt
desertion, informed her that he was aware
of the good fortune that had befallen her,
and with passionate self-reproach, declar
ed that she should never hear of him
again in this world until, by heaven's
blessing, it should be in his power to
make her some compensation for leaving
her as he had. This communication was
wondered at and speculated upon for
some time with thoughts that were only
forgiving : but as months and years roll
ed on without further revelation, it was
nearly forgotten at last. Of course the
old style novel-reader forsees the sequel.
Within the past few days, relates the
Petersburg Index, the adopted daughter,
now a blooming belle in her first twen
ties, has received from China a huge case
of curious and highly valuable gifts, ac
companied by a letter to " My dear niece,"
announcing that her uncle is a rich man
in the Celestial kingdom, and sends these
offerings in token of his risen fortunes
and determination to make the recipient
an heiress in her own right. All sorts of
rich jewelry and wonderfully-carved
caskets are among the treasures ; and
probably the early summer months will
witness the return of the Chinese merchant-prince
for a home visit, to tell the
strange story of his twenty years' ab
sence, invest ins ciepartea brother's
daughter with a munificent dowry, and
claim her pardon for the one unworthy
act of his life, for which more than divine
forgiveness is necessary to his peace. A
little love romance, now, would make the
whole narrative perfect ; and if the Index
can add mat ingredient at any future
time, it should certainly subserve all po
etic precedent and complete the artistic
eltect by so doing. Exchange.

Just the point at which 'Indistinst Ideas
01 meum and tuum ceae to be "absent'
nun led" and become "rather strange" Is
a difll.iult one to fix upon. Is it books, is
it umbrellas, is it canes, is it overcoats ?
Books are fairly on the hither side of the
mark. A passion even for purloining
literature is rather a humane and elevated
one. A taste for reading can scarcely, one
would think, exist in the same bosom
with so low a propensity as thieving. The
public conscience is generous upon the
subject of umbrellas. But when people
go 10 appropriating truies ot a less nuctu
ating value, the question then becomes
what we call "delicate." There are per
sons in every community who do
"strange" things; their friends never
speak ot It; the secret is kept most ju
diciously by the entire village. The indi
vidual so addicted is said to be "peculiar."
though his friends do not believe that he
"nu ans" anv wronsr. Our readers will
at once identify the character we wish to
designate. Still making a large allow
ance ior the number of such "peculiar"
people, it can not be that there are enough
of them, recognized as such iu the com
munity, to account for the fact that the
man who loses a gold-headed cane or a
nil umnrclla, with his name and address
marked upon it, has nine chances out of
ten that he will never see it again.
Of course, there are. we know, a large
class of professional thieves; there is also a
still larger class of persons who will ap
propriate other people's nronertv whn a
chance presents itself, but society has not
been prepared to believe that the number
of the latter class is so large as the alarm
ing iacts would seem to indicate. Leave
au overcoat wi'h your address in the
pocket, where it is not watched, and, of
course, you must get another. Any cane
or umbrella, however distinctly marked,
will meet the same fate. Now there is a
reason why it is unsafe to leave canes and
overcoats about. If a hundred people saw
the cane, all the honest ones would sup
pose it was put there by its owner and
that it was none of their business and
the honest ones might number ten or fifty
or ninety out of the hundred.
But when you lose money in the street,
the case Is different. Anv man. honest or
otherwise, would stop to pick up a note
or a greenoacK on tne pavement, snouid
a curious experimenter in publio morals
take ten tlve-doliar notes, and put each
of them into an envelope with his name
and address, and drop them carefully at
different points of a crowded thorough
fare, how many of them would be return
ed ! We do not Imagine that any philos
opher ever lived who was sufficiently cu
rious and sufficiently flush to make the
experiment. But our weak faith and our
unlucky experience Incline us to the opin
ion that very few of these greenbacks
thrown upon the waters would be gath
ered after many days. We have heard of
one old gentleman who turned misan
thrope upon being swindled out of some
money, and who devoted the remainder
of his life- to riding up and down in the
omnibus and handing up the fares. In
te turning change to the occupants, he al
ways added a penny more than was due,
and his gratification was Intense when (as
happened nine times out of ten) the trav
eler looked pleased and surprised and
pocketed the money.
1 ne (jmnese nave a very queer notion
that a lost valuable Is by right the prop
erty of the finder. Should a Chinaman
see you pick up bis own lost jewel or
dagger In the street, it would never occur
to him to claim it. IJe would not claim
It, because he could not get It; and he
could not get it, because the Chinese sense
of Justice and Chinese law are not as
thorough as our own. According to our
notion, property belongs to the man who
earns it, or to the man whs has it by the
will of the earner ; hlB own Ill-luck, or
even carolessness, can not alter the fact
that It Is his Of course, we do not mean
to try to prove that a man who finds a
cano should return it to the owner. We
wished merely to express our MrpleXity
as to the number of thoroughly honest
people, and the number of the " Indiffer
ent nontut,' as Hamlet phrases It. Very
unpleasant stories were told abeut the
prevalence of thieving In the army. Very
unpleasant experience would Indicate that
hazy ideas upon property are much more
common than we should like to think.
The subject is a forbidding one ; the fic

Strikes.
" Uhln the last year there have been
numerous attempts on the part of the
workingmen to better their condition by
demanding higher wages or shorter
working hours. Usually this demand is
strengthened by the men ceasing to work
until such time as their requests be
acceded to. These strikes have
proved 01 loss both to the cap
italist and men. Minions of dollars have
been taken from the pockets of both par
ties, Desides much ill will engendered b;
such proceedings.
Strikes in reality do not better the con
dition of the workingraan lor this reason
because the man has an interest in the
business of his employer. The machine

hand, in having his machinery lie idle,
sustains also a heavy loss. The profit
that accrues to him from the sale of his
products stops, while ho has still to pay
his taxes, etc. The capitalist and laborer
are bound together in indissoluble bonds
Without the one the other is powerless.
1 here is a mutual exchange of services
from the one. wages: from the other, la-
bor. It is true that the laboring classes
are often oppressed; but it is not needful
for them to try to right the matter them
selves, except in extreme cases. It is to
the benefit of the capital st that he hav
skilled labor, and only can he obtain this
with high wages. Moreover, bv vlnor
high rates for labor, he will stimulate his
men to do their best. Let the capitalist
rememoer mat tne skiumi artisan will
not work for a small remuneration, and
their places will be supplied bv those who

Let the laborer bear in mind that wages
tend to rise as the business is profitable,
and vice vena. Capitalists should be al
ways willing to pay for labor well and
tney wid lose nothing, but rather eain a
great deal. Workingmen should be slow
to engage In "strikes" for their grievances
wiu surety ue ngiueu in time, strikes
only occasion sorrow and misery, and
sometimes threaten the ruin of whole

tnis point, and surely they will see the
fallacy that underlies all "strikes". Ex

in the coal region and along the coast.
It must be sought in steep hills, In lime
stone or steep rocks. A surface cut by
frequent ravines, or covered by vegeta
tion in lines, indicates mineral crevices.
The galena from the slate Is said to con
taid more silver than that from the lime
stone. The purest specimens of galena
are poorest In silver : the small veins are
richest in the more precious metal. A
lead vein is thickest in limestone, thinner
in sandstone, and thinnest in slate.
SEARCHING FOR SILVER.
This metal is usually found with lead
pre and native copper. Slates and sand
stones Intersected by Igneous rocks, as
trap and porphyry, are good localities.
Pure silver is often found in or near iron
ores and the dark brown zinc blende.
The Colorado silver lodes are porous at
the surface and colored more or less red
or green. Any rock suspected of con
taining silver should bepowdered and dis
solved In nltHc acid. Pour off the liquid
and add to it a solution of salt. If a white
powder falls to the bottom, which, upon
exposure turns black, there Is silver in it.
Silver mines increase in value as in depth,
whereas gold diminishes as we descend.
SEARCHING FOR GOLD.
The paving localities of gold deposits
are the slopes of the Eocky and Alleghe
ny Mountains. Gold need'not be looked
for in the anthracite and bituminous coal
fields, nor in limestone rock. It Is seldom
found iu the beds of rivers. The thing
itself is the surest Indication of its exist
ence. If soil or sand is washed, and the
particles of gold are not heavy enough to
remain at the bottom, but float away, the
bed will not pay.
Among streams rather higher up among
the mountains, and In the gravelly drift
covering the slope of the valley below, are
the best prospects. Where the steam
meets an obstacle in its path, or makes a
bend, or has deep holes, there we may
look for "pockets" of gold. Black or red
sands are usually richest. Gold-bearing
rock is a slate or granite abounding in
rusty looking quartz veins, the latter con
taining iron pyrites or cavities. Almost
all iron pyrites and silver ores may be
worked for gold. When the quartz veins
are thin and numerous rather than mas
sive, and lie near the surfacethey are con
sidered most profitable. Few veins can
be worked with profit very far down. As
traces of gold may be found everywhere,
no one should Indulge In speculation be
fore calculating the per centage and the
cost of extraction. Gold hunting, after
all, is a lottery, with more blanks than
prizes.
The substances most frequently mis
taken for gold are' iron pyrites, copper
pyrites and mica. The precious metal is
easily distinguished from these by its
malleability (llattening under the hammer)
and its great weight, sinking rapidly in
water.
SEARCHING FOR IRON.
Any heavy mineral of a black, brown,
red or yellow color may be suspected to
be iron. To prove it. dissolve some in oil
of vitrol and pour in an infusion of nut
gall or oak bark ; if it turns black, iron is
present. If a ton of rich magnetic ore
costs more than $4 at the furnace, good
hemttite more than $3, and poor ores
more than Sl.oO or S2, they are too ex
pensive to nay. unless iron is unusually
iiigh. Deep mining for iron is not profit
able. Ueneral speaking, a bed ol good
iron ore, a foot thick, will repay the cost
of stripping it of soil, etc., twelve feet
thick. Bed and yellow earths, called
ochers, contain iron. Magnetic ore is
easily found by a compass. Underground

Spiritual Selection.
Not mucn more than a year has elapsed
since there was given here an account of a
marriage, m a western city, between a
widow ot tome lortune and spiritual ec
centricity, and a poor young man in
whom, at their first meeting, she had rec
ognized and greeted the husband assigned
to her by spiritual influences. When,
therefore, the Louisville Ledger chronicles
what seems to be a violent dissolution of
the same hastily formed partnership, the
average reader may not perceive therein
mucn occasion ior surprise, it appears
from the account of the husband, a Mr.
Saterfleld, as given before the City Court
oi Liouisviue one day last week, in answer
to a charge of misdemeanor preferred by
his wife, that In-January, of 1872, while
he was sick and penniless in Chicago, a
widow bearing the distinguished name of
Mrs. David Paul Brown, Jr., from Phila
delphia, became acquain'ed with him in
his calamity and assured him that their
marriage was the Imperious dictation of
tne spirit-world, rue lady's age was at
lenst double his own, yet she was not un
comely ; ami as lie had not a cent in ins
pocket, and felt particularly desolate and
uviiiiL.q in mo eiunJlCOOt nil 1 caiuiiCDQ iu
endow him with her hand and compe
tence looked like a benencent providence
not to be refused. They were married in
February, and removed to Chicago,
where, until last November, Mr.Saterlield
managed to live in passable harmony with
his providential helpmate. In the latter
month, however, occurred an episode to
which the spiritual family circle is eter
nally liable. Mrs. Saterlield fell under
the influence of a u medium" hostile to
her husband, who made he' believe that the
latter had poisoned a certain loaf of bread
for her exclusive benefit. Thereupon the
alleged " Borgia " was incontinently ar
rested, and, although himself devouring
a portion of the slandered loaf in court to
prove his innocence, exhibited so much
wrath against the "medium" that the
Judge saw fit to place him under bond to
keep the peace, though in his own recog
nizance. For the next five or six months
the spiritual household preserved at least
the outward signs of peace ; but on Mon
day of last week the husband was again
before the court, upon the wife's charge
of profane misdemeanor. Mrs. Sater
field'8 accusation was. that on Sabbath
morning, just as the prisoner was rising
from bed, he remarked that he thought
he would " make himself a toddy." To
this she opposed the sacred character of
the day : and. in order to prevent his sin
of desecration, seized the family bottle
and poured Its contents upon the floor,
whereat the prisoner, after a sickly de
monstration of shaking his fist and in
forming her that he was his own master,
went elsewhere for his beverage. Upon
his return she warned him that he should
be arrested next day for his violation of
the Sabbath, and. in the meantime, should
expect him to be " perfectly sober " when
she came back herself from all-day church.
She bad never known him to be intoxi
cated, she said, nor had be ever ill-treated
her seriously; but It was her desire for
tbo court to tnflict some penalty for the
Irreligious offense she had described. Not
only did the magistrate marvel at thU ap
peal, out, Mr. Suterneld was Deside nimseii
with anguish at, such persecution, and
besought Of the law deliverance from his
intolerable matrimonial bondage. He was
treated, he said, far more like a son-in-law
than like a husband, and should certainly
commit suicide If things went on in this
manner. The bewildered Court finally
placed him under nominal bond of $1,000
for one year, to make the best that he
could of his situation, and he went off in
custody of his wife, with a countenance
upon Which the frhastlv smiln of enforced
resignation was rather less cheerful than
,iarl'96t scowl of despair. Mi York

Tomato-Soup. Boll one pint canned
tomatoes for twenty minutes In one pint
water, then add ono pint milt very grad
ually, that it may not curdle ; season as
for oyster-soup, and serve with hot crack
ers or squares of toasted bread.
Children's Bins. Do all mothers
know that children's bibs, made of light
rubber cloth, and pinked, or bound with
ribbon, are very serviceable for table use,
only needing to be cleaned by rubbing
witn a damp cloth ?
Suet Pudding. Take one teacup of
chopped suet, one of sour milk, and one
of molasses i also a teaspooh of saleratus.
Add flour to make it stiff. Use one teacup
of raisins, one of currants, one teaspoon of
each kind of spice, and three eggs. Boil
three hours.
Mountain CaEk. Take one pound of
sugar, one-half pound of butter, one
pound of flour, six eggs ; beat the eggs
separately. Add one cup of sweet milk,
one teaspoon of soda, two of cream-of-tartar.
Make a frosting of three eggs and

M arblkd Veal. Take some cold roast

beat it in a mortar. Skin a cold dried
tongue, cut it up, and pound It to a panto,
adding to it nearly its weight of fresh but
ter ; put some of the veal into pots, then
stow in lumps of the pounded tongue.
Put in another layer of veal, and again
more tongue ; press it down and pour
clarified butter on the top. This cuts
very prettily, like veined marble. The
dressed white meat of cither fowl, rabbit,
or turkey, will answer for the purpose as
well as veal, Ohio Journal.

Early Lambs. We do not mention the
subject of caring for early lambs because
farmers are not aware of their duties, but
as a reminder. It is well known that for
market an early lamb is worth more than
a late one, and it follows that extra care
should be taken of the first. It is not
economy to attempt to watch the flock
in the field, and assist the lambs as they
appear, but provision should be made for
their protection beiore mat period. .t,wes
that are soon to suckle should be sepa
rated from the flock, and put where they
will not be subject to exposuie, even it
the lambs should not come on a stormy
nignt. Mieep nave again Decome valua
ble, both for the wool and meat they fur
nish, and these should be incentives to
watchfulness, if humanity does not lead
to it. Whers lambs become chilled, take
them at once to the house, and after being
in a warm room lor hall an hour, put
them under the fctove where it is quite
hot, and give them milk from the mother
until they become able to walk, and then
take them back to the sheep. If the
mother is not inclined to her own off
spring, shut the two up In a small pen or
box together for a day or two, and hold
the ewe a few times for the lamb to draw
his rations. Ohio Farmer.
Fruits and Vegetables. In fruit
growing, remember that fruits are like
grain and vegetable crops, in this, that they
must i:ave manure to keep up iertuity
Unlike vegetables and grain, however,
their feeding roots are mostly at the sur-
tace, it is best, tnereiore, annually to
top-dress fruit trees. If manure cannot
be had, any fresh earth from ditches or
road sides, spread half an inch or so un
der the trees, will have a wonderful effect
liii eed, we do not know but that for the
peav tree a thin layer of road sand is one
ot the best oi manures, v e nave seen ap
ples thrive au.azingly with a coating of
coal ashes. In vegetable garden culture
it must be remembered that we have to
operate the reverse of what we do in fruit
culture. A woody growth is what we
require for fruit trees ; but we need for
vegetables a soft, spongy, succulent char
acter, tne very reverse oi tins, r or tnis
end the ground cannot be too deep, too
rich, or too much cultivated. The hoe
and the rake should be kept continually
going, loosening the surface and admit
ting ' air and light," as the old books used
to say. There is not only an advantage
in tins for the direct benefit of the plant,
but an early use of those tools keeps down
the weeds, and thus we save labor. It Is
a great thing to be "forehanded" in the
weed war. Gardner Monthly.
A Curious Climate.
The climate of Peru is set forth by a
correspouucnii us eAceeuiugiy peculiar
and strange. It never rains there, we are
told, but during certain seasons, and
when the atmosphere is filled with
clouds, "dew falls so thick, heavy and
continuous that it will saturate the heavi
est clothing in less than half an hour."
The coming and going of the clouds that
distill this dew is another strange thing
connected with 1'eru. The changes are
reported so rapid and violent as to startle
the stranger. One may be walking along
the street, glorying in the rich warmth
of the sunshine, and admiring the deep,
clear blue sky. when suddenly, ana al
most imperceptibly, a change takes place,
"and from the southward a mass of dark
clouds come rolling swiftly across the fir
mament, and soon the blue sky is re
placed by a somber pall, and to the glor
ious sunshine succeeds a drizzling, pene
trating mist." And this is also as sudden
ly changed again; even while one is pre
paring to guard against the mist, the sun
light and the sky re-appear in all thiir
brightness and beauty.
