I remember, I remember,
The bouse where I was born,
Tbe little window where the son
Came pcepimt in at morn ;
He never came a wink too soon, .
Xor brought too long day,
' But now I often wish the night
Had borne my breath away.'
I remember, I remember.
The roses red and white, .
Tbe violets and the lily-cups, '
Those flowers made of light!
The lilac where the robin built.
And where my brother set
Tbe laburnum on his birthday
The tree is living yet !
I remember, I remember,
Where I was us ad to swing
liiid IhoDK'bt tbeair must rush as fresh
As swallows on the wing ;
My spirit flew in feathers then;
That is so heavy now.
And summer pools can hardly cool
The fever on my brow !
I remember, I remember,
The fir-trees dark and high ;
I used to think their slender tops
WYre close against the sky ;
It was a childish ignorance.
But now 'tis little joy
To know I'm farther olf from heaven
Than when I was a boy.
TAonios HorxL
DECIDED BY A FRESHET.
'Yes,' Louise Raymond said, nod
ding her head so that the golden
brow n hair on her forehead danced
coquettishly up and down 'Yes, I
am pretty, but I don't think I am
sufficiently beautiful to send all the
young men ot my acquaintance into
ecstacies over me ; and yet I know
I am pretty.'
And as she gazed composedly into
the depths of her mirror she took
from her belt a withered white rose,
and a bunch of faded pink hyacinths
and then arched her pretty eyebrows
over them in a puzzled fashion.
'Philip Marion gave me the roses,'
she soliloquized. Thilip is a very
handsome fellow, and I always did
have a weakness for handsome fel
lows ; and besides, they say he is a
rising young man in his profession.
Well, I like talented lawyers, too, so
I will keep the roses a little while.
And here are Max Hubert's hya
cinths poor, silent, awkward Max !
And yet there is something about
hitn that won't let you despise him.
He certainly is not handsome, and
yet bis face reminds you of one of
those old marble creatures one sees
in the Academy of Designs, Well,
I won t throw the hyacinths away,
either at anv rate not till I come
back from Grandma Carlisle's.'
A few days before. Grandma Car
lisle had written a piteous letter to
her step-son up in town, setting forth
that she was not feeling at all well
this winter, and was so lonesome she
did not know what to do with her
self, and begging one of her three
grand-daughters to come down and
stay with herawhile.
And Louise had astonished the
whole familv by . volunteering to go
toGrandma'8.
'My dear child,' Mr3. Raymond
had said, 'you don't know what vou
are undertaking, It is a common
farm house, and so awfully lone
seme!' 'And the old lady is as. full of
whims as an old lady can be,' the
elder 6ister, Augusta, said. 'Indeed
you may go, for all me !'
ell, Louise had declared, I am
tired of balls and dancing, and 12
o'clock suppers, and matinees ; and
I mean to go and try the other ex
tremejust for fun.
4 1 ou will hnd it anything but fun,
my dear,' Mrs. Raymond rejoined,
adjusting her eye glasses upon her
aristocratic nose.
'Well, at any rate, I mean to try.'
Louise persisted, valiantly, 'and,
papa, I want you to write to grand
ma that I am coming.'
.
The scene was indescribably beau
tiful to Louise Raymond that frosty
winter night, as the jolting, lumber
ing old wagon, with a buffalo robe
thrown over ibe seat and the sleepy
old horses trotting along in front,
came into the turn of the road from
which she could see the ancient
farm house, brown with a half cen
tury of suns and rains, while the
brown, wooded hills rose up on ev
ery 6ide, and one ruddy beam of
light glanced from the windows un
der the eaves of the old house, mak
ing very beautiful the brightness
across the road in front of the farm
house door.
4You11 find it desperate lone
some," the rough charioteer said,
who bad been sent to the depot to
meet Mrs. Carlisle's grand-daughter,
'"but she's expecting youll come
lonesome or lively.'
'Lonesome !'. cried Louise, gleeful
ly, as she sprang out ipon the snowy
ground. 4Whv, I thiuk it is splen
did !'
And she entered the cheery kitch
en, all aglow with a roaring fire of
pine logs on the hearth.
Grandma Carlisle bad evidently
expected her, and as evidently be
stirred herself for the occasion, for
the tabl? was spread with hot short
cake, baked apples fairly smothered
in rich yellow cream, quivering
quince jelly and homemade cottage
clieese, while the old lady herself, in
fresh cap and ribbons, came forward
on her crutches to welcome her
grand-daughter.
Why, my dear,' she cried, taking
a long survey, 'you are pretty as a
picture !'
Yes,' Louise said, blushing and
laughing, h, Grandma, what a
glorious fire you haTe got, and what
a darling, old fashioned tea urn, oh,
bow good everything does smell ! I
haven't had such an appetite in an
age.'
And before Louise Raymond slept
that night, she had taken Grandma
Carlisle's heart by storm.
She had been an inmate of tbe
farm house for a few days when a !
storm came on, which made the old j
lady's rheumatism grow so much
worse that she was obliged to keep
her room, but Louise went about as .
light hearted as ever, doing the whole
work of the house, with such assist
ance as John, tbe hired man, was
able to render her.
The rain bad fallen all day. stead
ily, blown hither and thither by the
set

SOMERSET. PA., WEDNESDAY.
wind, that howled lugubriously
through the gorges of the hills, and
at last, aa twilight was settling down
on the stormy earth, and Louise was
sitting thoughtfully and restfully be
fore the fire, John came in with a
message : ' '
'MiBS Louise,' said he, 'there's two
gentlemen, rain bound, outside,
'pears they've missed. their way, and
their horses are clean tuckered out,
and it's full ten milea Vound, bein'
as the Chestnut Bridge is washed
away on the main road, .and they
want to know if we cant give them
a night's shelter. I told them Mrs.
Carlisle was sick, and I wasn't boss,
but I would ask the young woman
who does the work.'
Louise involuntarily winced a lit
tle, and then laughed at John's un
polished language.
40f course they may come in,' she
said. 'I would not turn a dog away
from the door such a night like
this.'
But imagine her amazement when,
turning to welcome the strange gen
tlemen, she beheld no strangers in
them at all, but Mr. Philip Marion
and Mr. Max Hubert, literally
drenched with rain, their noses red
dened with the cold wind.
They stood blankly regarding her,
but Louise, fully mistress of the sit
uation, went forward with the grace
of a young duchess.
'Good evening, gentlemen ! Pray
come a little nearer the fire. I hard
ly supposed that in the storm bound
strangers who sought shelter here, I
was to welcome old acquaintances.
I am glad, however, to be of service
to you. John, will you Bee that the
gentlemen's overcoats are attended
to at once ? They are indeed drench
ed.' 'Oh, Miss Raymond ! exceedingly
glad to see you, I am sure,' stam
mered Mr. Marion, as he awkwardly
permitted his frog-like hand to touch
hers. 'but. if I may inquire, what
may you possibly be doing in such
a place as this?'
Didn't John tell you?' she asked,
with demure innocence, 'I am doins
the housework here.'
'Miss Ravmond !'
Well, why not?'
But Mr. Marion had no reply
read v, he only rubbed his hands and
smiled feebly, as he advanced toward
the grateful red blaze, while Max
Hubert was in turn exchanging his
greetinz.
4It is a surprise, Miss Raymond,
to see you here, he said, lrankly,
'and a verv agreeable one.
And away down in her heart
Louise wondered what new kind of
irallantrv had taken away all Max
Hubert's awkwardness.
4It's as good as a play,' she felt,
gleefully, when Mr. Hubert had ex
plained that unexpected business
had taken them across the country,
thus bringing about such an entirely
unanticipated meeting.
She had gone into the kitchen to
get cream for the table, and as she
stood there skimming off the golden
accumulation, she heard Marion's
voice.
'Of course old Raymond nas failed,
and they have lost everything, else
she wouldn't be here. What a pity,
for with that face of hers she might
have married well.'
And what is to prevent her from
marrying well now?' Max Hubert
asked, deliberately.
'My dear fellow, we must all look
out for the main chance. In fact, I
was once a little gone myself, but of
course mats out oi me question
now.'
And Louise, as she stood there
with burning cheeks, was glad some
how that Mr. Hubert made no an
swer.
When she came back to preside at
'he tea table, with John democratic
ally seated at the lower end, she was
as composed as ever.
For two days the rain storm con
tinued with unabated violence, dur
ing which time Philip Marion yawn
ed over the week's old newspaper,
and systematically ignored Miss
Raymond's presence.
'For a fellow must not get himself
entangled,' he reflected, mentally.
But Max Hubert reasoned quite
otherwise. He haunted Louise's
footsteps with love like persistency,
and somehow, although Louise de
clared "he was a nuisance," she
rather seemed to like it.
On tbe third day the weather
cleared, and John brought around
the guests' horses.
'Come, Hubert,' Marion said, im
patiently, 'are you going to stand
there all day making your adieu ?'
"You can be off as quick as you
like,' Hubert returned, calmly. 'I
am not going.'
'Not going? But business '
'What do I care for business ?' was
the unaccountable reply. 'Miss
Raymond has promised to be my
wife, and my business is here, just
at present'
And Mr. Marion rode away, ejacu
lating under his breath :
'Did I ever see 6uch a fool in all
my life?'
And then Louise told her lover
the truth, and the whole truth.
'But I did'nt want to marry an
heiress,' Hubert said, biting his lips
almost vexedly.
'Perhaps ; but you want me, Max,
don't you?' Louise said, with the
prettiest coaxing little wav in the
world.'
'Well. I guess I do,' be said, 'but,
my darling, I have had a bright
dream ot love in a cottage.'
And it shall all come true,' Louise
said, lightly, 'in spite of the detri
ment in the shape of the fifty thou
sand dollars youll bave to take with
me.'
A little later the two lovers trav
eled back, tete-a-tete, to New York
just as soon as John's wife could
be induced to come and take Louise's
place in Grandma Carlisle's house-
i hold and what Philip Marion's
ifeelines were when he learned the
t "tat of tbe case, we leave the
readers to conjecture.

Harrisbcrg, Sept 3. General Si
mon Cameron has received the fol
lowing letter from his son, Senator
J. D. Cameron, who is driving
through England and Scotland :
Worcester, Eng., Aug. 3, 1883.
Dear Father : We have now been
two weeks on the road, and I am be
coming more and more pleased with
our experiment The moderate fa
tigue gives one a healthy appetite
and'good sleep, and the country is
so very beautiful that one cannot
help but be in good spirits. vVe
spent last Sunday at Bath. Tbe
bathing arrangements there are per
fect, but the place has ceased to be
fashionable, royalty and their fol
lowers now going to the German
springs, where 1 don't believe they
can be half so comfortable. From
Bath we went to Bristol, but only
stopped there to lunch, and drove
on to Chepston, crossing the river
Severn by a steamer, near its mouth,
and then up the valley of Wye to
Chepston, which is a very old and
interesting town. The remains of
the old castle, which cover about
three acres of ground, are well worth
a visit
On Tuesday we drove down to see
an old ruined abbey at Tintern. It
is perfectly beautiful. Both it and
the old castle belong to the Duke of
Beaufort, who seema to own the en
tire county. We drove the same af
ternoon to Monmouth through a
beautiful country, and remained
there all night, and, on Wednesday,
went to Hereford. When we arrived
there, it happened to be market day
and the place was filled with farm
ers from the surrounding country.
The cattle market, which is said to
be very fine was over, But the gener
al market was in full blast We
went through it, and I was surprised
to find a well dressed and very in
telligent loooking lot ol people sit
ting behind the stalls. The cathe
dral at Hereford ia a very fine one,
and has been much restored during
the last century.
England's rural beauties.
On Thursday we drove to Mal
vern, and stayed there til night at
one of the most attractive hotels I
ever saw, the grounds of which slope
very abruptly from the building, and
are laid out in excellent taste. The
view from the top of the hill of Mal
vern is grand. You see up and down
the valley of the Severn for many
miles, and every way you cast your
eye the scene is beautiful. V e leu
Malvern, which is only eight miles
from here, at 11 o'clock this morn
ing, and reached here in about an
hour. I hired a one-horse trap this
afternoon and drove sixteen miles
to see the mother of John Paget, the
gardiner at my Lochiel farm, at
Harrisburg. I found her living with
a daughter in a little brick cottage
along theroaddide. The old woman
was overjoyed to see me, and did
nothing but thank God and praise
me for coming to see her. The
daughter, a very intelligent woman,
told me about their affairs. They
have a good garden and plenty of
flowers, make just enough to keep
them, anl are happy. The people
everywhere through the country ap
pear to be contented, and all look as
though they had enough to eat, and
I am very Eure they have plenty to
drink.
This is a great apple country, and
the trees are loaded down with fruit.
Many young orchards are being
planted, and I am told they make
great quantities of cider and that the
orchards are profitable. The culti
vation ol hops is a profitable busi
ness. I intend to make further in
quiries about it It seems to me
that we ought to raise them with
equal profit in our country. I am
very sure that if we had persons
who thoroughly understood taking
care of sheep that we could make it
pay, and at the same time improve
our lands. I intend to hunt up a
shepherd in Scotland and try it at
Huinmelstown. My friend. Lord
Kincaid, whom we are to visit when
we eet to Scotland, I am sure can
get me a good man.
THE SENATOR'S HEALTH IMPROVING.
Every day that we travel I am de
lighted that we thought of this trip.
I feel that it is doing me good in
every way. I wish you were here ;
you would enjoy it To-morrow we
do up the cathedral here and visit
the royal orcester China orks,
which are said to be interesting. On
Monday we go to Birmingham and
from there to Derby, and then north
to Iancaster, Carlisle, and on to
Scotland. So far we have been
traveling west from LondoD, but I
am not sorry that we have lengthen
ed tbe route, for every foot of it has
given us pleasure. I have not seen
an American paper for two weeks,
and have forsotten all about politics.
I saw a notice in the London Time
of Montgomery Blair's death, and
was very sorry to see it ; I liked him
very moch. Remember me to all.
Your affectionate son,
J. D. Cameron.
Time to Stop It.
It's too bad. Sir or Madam, but
don't get frightened. Your hair is
falling off that s certain. A glance
in the mirror, or an investigating
committee of fingers tell the dismal
story. We won discuss the possi
ble cause. It is enough that f arker s
Hair Balsam used now will prevent
further destruction. Is your hair
somewhat gray, too, and crisp?
Alas, ves. The Balsam will give
back the original color, softness and
gloss. No, a dye, not oily, elegantly
perfumed' a perfect dressing.
The Abenakis Indians believe that
meteors are the souls of the dead.
Once a young Indian girl died, and
tbe meteor which maraed her death
settled on the earth. But it was not
content with the prairie or the forest
and found a resting place on the
surface of a lake. If one doubts the
legend he can visit the lake and see
the water lilies still growing there.

Burning ofHsmin Ilair.
"Hair Singeing 25 Cents," is the
somewhat novel sign displayed in
the window of a South Broad street
barber's shop, Philadelphia. The
interior of the shop is decorated with
half a dozen more of the signs, and
two knights of the razor and a color
ed boy fanned themselves and wait
ed for customers. The reporter had
jnst made known his errand when
two youths of the variety popularly
known as "toughs" entered, and one
of them, notwithstanding the lavish
display of signs, inquired if "this
here s the place the teller was wot
burned yer hair off?" Being assured
he had reached the right place, the
youth inquired if it "hurt yer?" and
when the barber said it was a pain
less operation, seated himself in one
of the chairs and told the barber to
"bring on yer blaze and do it up in
style." He added that he wanted
a "regular summer cut, short all
over." The first step taken by the
barber was to cut the youth's hair
in the regular way with the scissors,
and this being finished, the act of
siogting began. Taking a long wax
taper, such as are used in any house
hold, he lighted it from a gas burner,
and with a comb lifted what remain
ed of the young man's hair into
ridges, the tops of which he deftly
burned off by applying the blazing
taper, and a halo of smoke encircled
his head, and a faint odor of toasted
wool floated about in the room and
out into the sultry night vith
great skill he soon had the entire
top. back, and sides of the youth's
head completely singed, that worthy
in the meantime staring at the oper
tion as reflected in the looking-glass,
momentarily exclaiming: "Well,
I'll be blowed !" His companion was
similarly impressed, and made con
stant remarks of a like nature.
When the vouth's head had been
sufficiently toasted to suit the bar
bers s artistic eye, the taper was put
out, and the customer requested to
step down to the wash-basin, where
his head was thoroughly washed, to
clear awav tbe "ashes" that remain
ed at the end of each hair, and when
the operation was finished the youth
gazed in the glass at as beautifully
clipped a cranium as ever left a bar
ber shop, raving his quarter, and
remarking that it "wasn't such a bad
racket, alter all, the yonng man
gave a parting glance of approval in
the mirror, and with his companion
departed. "This is the only place
in this country where you can get a
regular "singe," said the barber after
the youths bad gone, "but it's a pret
ty common thing in England and
hurope, and in Canada, too, I be
lieve." In conclusion, he stated
that it was said to be a capital thing
for the hair, and would cause it to
nourish like a cornfield after a sum
mer shower; but he added in con
clusion, "It aiut any good for bald
headed men, for thev haven't any
hair to be braced up."
The tint hers.
The Luthers, Luthers the name
is the same as Lothair were a fam
ily of peasants at Mohra or More, a
village on the skirts of the Thuring
ian forest, in the Electorate of Saxo
ny. "I am a peasant's son," Luther
wrote ; "father, grandfather, great
erand father, were all peasants."
The father, Hans or JoLn, was a
miner. He learned his trade in
a copper mine at Mohra, but remov
ed in early manhood to Eisleben,
where business was more active;
and there, being a tough, thrifty,
industrious man, he did well for
himself. The Mohra people were a
hard race what the Scotch call
"dour" and Hans Luther was one
of them. He married a peasant
woman like hinseif, and from this
marriage, now just 400 years ago, on
the 10th of November," 1483, came
into the world at Eisleben his first
born son, Martin. Six months later,
still following bis mining work,
Hans moved his family to Mans
feld, a few miles distant, in a valley
on the slopes of the Hartz Moun
tains. He worked himself with his
pick in the mine shafts. The wife
cut and carried the wood for the
cottage. Hans, steadily rising, be
came the proprietor of a couple of
smelting furnaces: in 1491 he be
came one of the four Church Elders
what we should call Church War
dens. He. drew tbe attention of
Count Mansfeld himself, whose cas
tle overhung the village, and was
held in high esteem by him. Me
lancthon, who knew loth liars and
his wife, admired and honort-d lioth
of them. Their portraits weretaken
afterward by Cranach the ft-atures
of loth expressing honesty, piety,
and clear intelligence. Martin was
the eldest of seven children ; he was
brought up kindly, of course, but
without special tenderness. He
honored and loved his parents, as he
was bound to do, but he thought in
his own latter life that they had been
overharsh with him. He remember
ed that he had been beaten more
than once for trifles, worse than his
fault deserved. Of the village school
to which he was early sent his recol
lections were only painful. He was
taught to read and write, and there
was what pretended to be an ele
mentary Latin class. But tbe school
masters of his childhood, he said,
were jailers and tyrants, and the
schools were little hells. A sense of
continued wretchedness and injus
tice weighed on him as long as he
remained there, and made his child
hood miserable. But he must have
shown talents which encouraged his
father to spare no cost on his son's
education that his own scanty means
would allow. When he was 14 he
was sent to a more expensive school
at Magdeburg, and thence, after a
year, to a still better school at Eisen
ach, where he was taught thoroughly
ell, and his mind began to open.
Religion, as with all superior lads, ;
t . A? a A a- A l A t- a. T I
became the first thought with him
He asked himself who God was,
what he was, and what God requir
ed him to do ; and here tbe impres
sion of his home experiences began
to weave themselves into what he
learned from books.
It is certain that the wreck found
on M t Ararat is the reamins of the

Dolly Payne.
Who was Dolly Payne, the wife of
James Madison, President of the
United States and a gallant soldier
of the Revolution ? A Quaker girl,
around whom clusters all that was
romantic and poetic in Madison's
life, except his tender devotion to
hia mother. He fell in love with
her while he was in Philadelphia
attending the session of Congress aa
a representative from Virginia. She
was born in North Carlina but when
quite young her parents removed
to Philadelphia and joined the So
ciety of Philadelphia and joined the
Society of Friends. When Madison
first met her she was Mrs. Dortha
Payne Toddy, the widow of John
Todd. Still 6he was only twenty
three years old, and aa pretty in
features as charming in conversation
His suit was successful, which ia not
ts be wendered at, for he was a man
of wealth and with a wide reputa-
tion. ith her he retired to
With her he retired to his
country seat to enjoy her society,
and the comforts ofhoem
Seven happy years were
spent at Montpelier and then in
1801, Madison was appointed secre
tary of State and removed with hia
beautiful wife to Philadelphia.
Afterwards, when Madison became
President, she shared the White
House with him. It ia said of her
that she presided with more bril
liancey over the Executive Mansion
than any other woman before or
since. Her beauty, her charming
manners, her quiet refinement, and
her dignity and grace let a charm
before unknown to the White House
entertainments.
And she was as brave as she was
beautiful. During the exciting davs
of the war of 1812 she showed such
deqotion and bravery that she was
no longer simply a queen of the
drawing-room, but a heroine. The
21th of August, 1814, witnessed the
entry of the British into the Capitol
after defeating our army at tiladr-i.r
burg. On the day prevmu-, Mr.
Madison wrote thus to ht-r fister at
Mt Vernon: "My husband left me
esterday to join General Winder.
Ie inquired anxiously whether I
had courage or firmness to remnin
in the President's house until hi3 re
turn on the morrow or succaeding
day, and on my assurance that I had
no fear but for him and the success
of our army, he left me, beseeching
me to take care of myself and of the
cabinet papers public and private.
I have since received two dispatch
es from him written with a pencil ;
the last is alarming, because he de
sired that I should be ready a4 a
moment's warning to enter my car
riage and leave the city. I am de
termined not to go myself until I
see Mr. Madison safe and he can ac
company me, as I fear much hostil
ity towards him." On the following
ofternoon she adds a postscript :
"Will yon believe it, my sister, we
have had a battle or a skirmish near
Bladensburg, and I am here within
sound of the cannon ! Mr. Madison
comes not ; may God protect him !
Two messengers covered with dust
come to bid me flv, but I wait for
him."
At last she consents to depart, but
even then delays, at the risk of cap
ture, to order the demolition of the
heavy gilt frame around Stuarts por
trait of General Washington, so that
the valued picture may be taken out
and carried to a place of security.
Dolly Payne is a demure little Qua
ker girl no longer, but a brave wo
man of whom the whole nation may
well be proud. It is a pleasing inci
dent of her husband's love that in
after years, when writing his will,
he always mentioned her as " my
dear wife." With all her beauty and
with all her bravery Dolly Madison
had her share of trouble. John
Payne Todd, pon by the first hus
band, was a wild, profligate fellow,
who inherited none of the eood
qualities of his mother. When
Madison sold his manuscripts and
papers to Congress for $20,000
young Todd managed to get niost of
the money from him. Afterwards
wben Madison made his will he left
land and other property to all his
-relatives, but to John Payne Todd

Dolly Payne, as she ia commonly j
called, resided in Washington during;
tbe last years of her life. In her old
age she was baptized and became a
member of St. John's Church, in
Philadelphia.

with great respect by all of them.
But Mr. Clay would now and then
indulge in compliments to her beau
ty, and on one occasion playfully
solicited from hera kiss. Of course
he was refused the favor ; but in re
lating the incident to bis associates
he could not forego a joke on Mr.
Adams, who had what are known
as watery or tear-suffered eyes. As
jrr- clay repeated it, the conversa-
. . a a, a
tion following the refusal of the kiss
ran as follows :
"I presume you would not deny
Mr. Adams that favor ?"
"Indeed I would," she replied.
"I have just done so, and left him
with tears ia his eyes."
