I mark two cities side by aide.
And daily both arc prowing ;
From morn till night a restless tide
Through all their streets is flowing.
Ia both they break the prairie's sod.
With spade, and pick, and shovel ;
Hoases to build for man's abode,
The mansion and the hovel.
The sunshine on the marble streams
Alike in both these cities ;
And Night s filir lamp, with softer beams.
Their sleeping silence pities.
Twin cities the', and side by side,
With equal thrift they bourgeon ;
One built with toil, and cost and pride.
And one needs to urge on.
For one is the city of Life
Astir with noiseand bustle ;
And one, unwont to noise and strife,
Owns Death a mute a)Htle.
In one the tide of traffic rolls
In Hows and ebbs of passion.
The hoarse bell in the other tolls
A knell of fitful fashion.
Spread, living men, your city wide.
build cottage, hail and malison ;
The other city, by its side.
Must grow with like expansion.
For every house with roof and floor,
That makes Life's city broader,
Of narrow homes there must be more.
Where IVath is speechless warder.
And in the end, my faith discerns
Their mode? of being wary ;
Man's palace to the dust returns,
Life to the cemetery.

'What a lovely night !' exclaimed
a clear girlish voice, as a party of
four descended the bteps of a hand
some house and paused awhile on
the pavement.
How Lai my the air feel?, and
wh.tt a clear deen blue skv! There
are more Ktars out to night than ever
were before aren't there, Harry ?'
'Interesting discovery to report to
the Astronomical Observation Soci
ety,' replied the yoanjr man address
ed". 'See any new cometstamongst
them V
'Suppose we go home by the ave
nue?' eueirested the second lad v.
'Then we can enjoy a longer walk,
and see the moon rise across the riv
er, just under the arch of trees. It is
early yet.'
'We'll go, Nellie, provided you
girls won't get to quoting poetry,
replied the unsentimental Harry.
'Of all afflictions ugh 1 he suddenly
interrupted himself with as he awk
wardly plunged forward, and barely
saved' himself from a fall on the
pavement-
'A stumped toe is the worst,' con
cluded Nellie, laughing. 'I'm so glad
you've had this affliction to com pare
with that of poetry. Teach you to
Le more reasonable next time, Har
ry.' " 'Don't be malicious, Nellie, and
you Jack, take care of yourself and
Rosie. There are more loose rocks
about Wonder how tliev came
here?'
By some singular coincidence, the
6treet lamp was extinguished just
where these obstructions in the way
rendered its light more needed.
The party moved on cautiously,
till Nellie, who was in front with
Harry, exclaimed :
'Somebody has lost his purse.
What a pity.'
Harry unsuspiciously stopped to
pick up the lost article, which lay
brightly shining on the pavement,
in the rays of the 6treet lamp. But
as he touched it, it magically disap
peared in the darkness, while at the
same instance a chorus of suppressed
chachinations was audible from the
other side of the street
'Little roscals I' said Harry. 'I see
through it now. They are out to
night in force lurking in the dark
ness, placing stumbling blocks in
the path of the unwary, and seeking
to beguile the innocent with sudden
visions of vanishing wealth. I wish
I could get hold of one of them just to
make an example of.'
'Oh, let the boys alone,' said Jack,
who was following behind with Ro
sie. 'Let them enjoy themselves. I
know iust what exquisite delight
they are reveling in at our expense,
for it seems but yesterday that you
and I, Harry, were amusing our
selves in the same way. It isn't for
us to find fault with them, and I de
clare I almost envy them their en
joyment.'
And they re ringing the door
bells !' said Nellie. 'What fun they
have.'
'That it is,' said Jack, with unc
tion. ' Ton my word, I've a great mind
to try that trick once more, as a
parting taste of juvenile pleasure be
fore a glorious manbooa exalts nie
beyond reach of such simple and
childlike delights.'
'Oh, Jack, you wouldn't dare,'
said his sister Rosie.
'Oh, do, Jac k please do,' urged
his cousin Nellie, her eyes dancing
with mischief.
'Why, the police might carry us
all to the station house,' remonstrat
ed Rosie.
'Oh, uobody'll suspect you. and as
for myself I can outrun any police
man. Jnst wait and see.'
'Go ahead.' said Harry, lauehing
ingly. 'I will take care of the la
dies" We will stroll past, in a leis
urely and dignified manner, just as
the door opens, and you can double
and rejoin us when you've won the
race.'
The. house they were just passing
was brightly lighted, and the in
mates were evidently entertaining
company.
Jack, after a cautionary observa
tion, walked lightly up the flagged
approach, ascended the steps and
gave a vigorous pull of the bell.
Then he sprang down, and had just
time to rejoin his companions, when
a foppish young man, with a com
pany simper on his face, opened the
door with a graceful flourish.
His expression changed instantly
to one of blank surprise ; he stepped
out and looked carefuily on each
side of tie porch, then passed swift
ly down the short walk to the gate,
where, suddenly finding himself in
tbe presence of two couples who
were leisurely passing, he assumed
a dignified air, as if anxiously ex
pecting a friend. ,
'What fun,' exclaimed Nellie
again, with a laugh, as soon as they !
were out of hearing. Do, Jack, ring
one more bell, please I had no idea
how nice it was. Now, this is the
very house for it, with the gas turn
ed down, and no lights in the parlor
windows. You'll have plenty of
time-to get off.'
'It's Mr. Jessup's house' said
Harry, Hhe rich bank director. Fan
cy his indignation at the presump
tion of those rascally boys in daring
to take such a liberty with his door
bell.'
'Well, I'll try it, just to spite him.
In fact, I owe him one, lor a poke in
the back wi'.h an umbrella which he
gave me, about seven years ago. It
was at a lecture, and 1 was talking
to a pretty girl with whom I had
scraped acquaintance. And she saw
it: and 1 was hlteen, with a visible
shade upon my upper lip. Can such
an injury ever be iorgotten, or shall
it pass unavenged ? Perish the
thomrbt!' '
He walked quite leisurely tip to
Mr. Jessup's front door, and firmly
and deliberately puued the bell.
! But hi, hand had scarcely left the
last I t ll V
knob, when the uoor new open, ana
out darted Mr. Jessup himself, with
vengeance glaring in his old epecta
cled eyes.
'So 1 ve caught you, you young
villain ! and now 1 11 make such an
example why, bless me!'
And he let go his iron grip on
Jack's coat lapel, and started in
amazement as he took in the tall
proportions of his visitor,upon whose
face and figure the now upturned
gas jet cast a cruel light
'I beg your pardon, sir indeed I
really beg your pardon !' resumed
Mr. Jessup,' gazing keenly upon
Jack's embarrassed countenance. 'I
unfortunately mistook you for one of
those mischievous boys who have
for some evenings past annoyed us
by the low and contemptible trick of
surreptitiously ringing our door bell
It is but a lew minutes since one
of them left, and knowing that he
would repeat his performance, I re
solved to lie in wait. You'll excuse
me, I am sure, sir. Tray walk in.'
Jack looked for au instant as if
meditating an uncere nonious re
treat. But he saw that Mr. Jessup,
though not a personal acquaintance,
had recognized him, and he was
forced to summon his presence of
mind to his aid.
'1 can excuse the mistake, sir,' he
said with rather a forced smile. 'I
was aw may 1 inquire whether
Mr. Smith lives here?' ,
it was the hrst name that occur
red to him, and he calculated by this
clever expedient to make an easy
escape.
Mr. Alexander Smith ? inquired
Mr. Jessup, with his searching gaze
still bent upon Jack. . .
hy, no, 1 think not Mr. John
Smith in, I think, the name,'
Just here a suppressed feminine
giggling from the sidewalk was dis
tinctly audible.
'Oh, Mr. John Smith ! He resides
not far from here, on the next block.
As you appear to be a stranger in
this neighborhood, pray allow me to
show vou the house.'
Jack protested : he would not hear
of the gentleman giving himself the
trouble, but Mr. Jessup insisted
that it would be a pleasure, and seiz
ing his hat, escorted his unwilling
companion up the street to the next
block, where he passed before a very
handsome house.
'This, sir, is the residence of Mr.
John Smith. The adjoining man
sion is that of his brother, Alexan
der,' and the polite banker opened
the gate, and stood aside for Jack to
pass.
'Thank you, sir; I am sure I am
greatly obliged,' said Jack, betraying
no haste to enter.
'It is rather dark here in the shad
ow of the piazza; I fear you will
have some dilliculty in finding it.
Allow me to ring.
Jack A-rvently wished he could
wring the ears of the officious bank
er, and he iooked wildly around as
a resounding peal rang on the still
ness. A moment later i light step was
heard within, the door opened, and
he found himself confronted by a
graceful figure, with the prettiest and
most piquant brunette face that he
could imagine.
'Ah, good evening. Miss Flora,'
said Mr. Jessup, politely. 'This gen
tleman is anxious to see your father,
and being a stranger, I have taken
the liberty of showing him the place.
Good evening!'
And with a malicious gleam in his
sharp eyes, the banker took his de
parture, and left his victim to his
fate.
What could Jack do? There was
the young lady holding the door
open, and inviting him to enter, and
there was Mr. Jessup skulking into
the shadow at the gate, to enjoy his
discomfiture, and the same giggling
that he had before heard now again
greeted Ins ears, with a sure premo
nition of what awaited him in the
future, unless he could manage to
extricate from this most embarrass
ing dilemma.
In desperation, and if only to dis
appoint the outside lookers-on, Jack
stepped across the threshold.
'Pray, walk in, sir,' said the young
lady' opening another door. 'Papa,
a irentleman to pee vou.
The visitor's face was very red as
he found himself ushered into a very
brightly lighted parlor, where sat
two gentlemen plaving chess.
Mr. John Smith, a portly figure,
with iron gray hair, rose to meet
him, and the young lady placed a
chair for him ; and some remark
was made Jack hardly knew what
after which followed a solemn si
lence.
Clearly, Jack must eurely say
something.
'I I beg pardon,' he stammered ;
'but I fear there is some mistake.
May I inquire if this is the residence
of Mr. Alexander bmith I
'No, sir,' briskly answered the
trim little gentleman, who had been
Mr. Smith's partner at chess, 'but if
you desire to see Mr. Alexander
Smith, I am he, and at your ser
vice. This is the residence of my
brother, Mr. John Smith.'
Jack looked at the two gentlemen,
and then glanced at the young lady.
He felt himself run to bay at last
Mr. John Smith seemed to pity his
embarrassment 1
'What can we do for you, sir?' he
inquired, courteously.
'No, thank you, sir that is in
fact, sir,' said Jack, in desperation,
I must really apologize for this in
trusion.' ' And then he summoned all his
self possession, and in a frank,
straight forward way, confessed the
truth, and explained how he had
been betrayed into his present most
embarrassing situation.
The gentlemen listened, at first
with much gravity, and then with
some doubtful twitchings about the
corners of the mouth and an odd
twinkling of the eyes.
As to the young lady, Jack scarce
ly dared glance toward her, until
just as he explained how he
had been forced by Mr. Jessup s be
nevolent anxiety to intrude upon
his present host, he was startled by
the clearest and mot silvery burst
of laughter, and looking around saw
the beautiful gipsy eyes of Miss
Flora Smith, fairly dancing with
merriment
And then her father and her uncle
joined in ; and Jack himself, con
scious of the Iudicrousness of the
whole affair, was compelled to laugh
also, and for a few moments a mer
rier party could scarcely have been
seen.
'Oh, isn't it too funny !' said Flora.
'Only think of grown up gentlemen
going around ringing people's door
bells J W ho would have suspected
it?'
And she looked at Jack such an
arch look, mingled with just the
slightest suggestion of admiration of
his manly appearance, that he was
charmed.
L am ashamed to coniess he
commenced, but Mr. John Smith in
terrupted him :
Lome, mv young friend, there is
nothing to be particularly ashamed
of. Many a time in my college days
have I done the same thing, and
even added to it the enormity of car
rying off iron gates, or exchanging
tradesmen's signs. I can testify to
the enjoyment of such forbidden
deeds. It is human nature, I sup
pose, and I will not blame you too
severely; especially since Mr. Jes
sup has taken your punishment into
his own hands.
And again Mr. John Smith laugh
ed, and the rest joined him. The
laughter, however, war as nothing in
comparison with the burst of merri
ment which awaited Jack on his re
turn home.
Nellie screamed with delight, and
even gentle Eosie laughed until she
cried. But when Jack related his
experience at Mr. John Smith's they
became interested.
'So Flora Smith has come home
from that long visit to her aunt in
England ?' said Nellie. ; 'I am so
glad, for she was one of the sweetest 1
girls at Miss Booker's boarding
school, and we all loved her. Ill go
to see her, Jack, and introduce you,
as some reward for this evening's ad
venture. Who knows,' she added.
archly, 'but that your ringing that
door bell was the beginning of your
good tortune r
And so indeed it proved, as Jack
often remarks at the present day.
And in remembrance of that advent
ure and its pleasant consequences.
Jack's pretty wife wears, attached to
her bracelet, a tiny golden bell, set
with jewels, with which, on their en
gagement, he presented her.
Ijove in the Depot.
Digging I'otatoca.
Potatoes are often greatly injured
for table use by needless exposure
in digging. It should be kept in
mind that a potato is an under
ground stem. It lias the bark (skin)
of other stems, but in a modified
state. When a potato grows so near
to the surface that a part of it is ex
posed to the light, that portion as
sumes the green color and general
character of the ordinary stems. It
is well known that the stems or vines
of the potato contain n narcotic prin
ciple, which is poisonous and has
unfortunately a most unpleasant
taste. When a tuber is exposed long
enough after digging it becomes
green, and with an unpleasant fla
vor that unfits it for food. Kven be
fore the green is manifest, potatoes
often develop this flavor, which we
have heard described as 'cut throat'
When potatoes are dug, they should
be allowed to dry a little before they
ire stored for the winter. To ac
complish this they do not need direct
sunshine. They should be thrown
out in shallow heaps and slightly
covered with vines and weeds. These
will keep off the sun but will not
prevent the air from reaching and
drying their surfaces. Those who
buy potatoes at city stores and
markets, often find them with a very
bad flavar. due to exposure to the
light. It is best to dig the potatoes
in dry weather, and whether they
are to be pitted or stored in a cellar,
keep them serened from sunlight as
much as possible.
A woman arrived here the other
forenoon from the east with seven
children in tow, and at almost the
same hour a man reached the same
depot from the north with five off
springs of various ages and sizes.
She was a widow and he was a wid.
ower, and the children had not been
whipped more tbtn 'once around
before there was a mutual sympathy
that begot admiration and then
friendship.
One of the widow's boys offered
one of the widow's girls a bite of his
fried cake, which was accepted in the
spirit tendered, and a ten year ol
girl belonging to the man made up
with the two year old belonging to
the woman and soon secured the
privilege of wiping its nose and
combing its hair. Presently tbe wid
ower made bold to inquire of the
widow:
'Madam, am I wrong in believing
that you are a widow r
I have been a widow fourteen
months to-dav.'
"Great Scots ! but its just fourteen
months today since uiy Hanner
died ! Which way be you going.
madam ?
'To Illanov.'
'That's just where I am going, too.
Did you promise your husband ney
er to marry again ?'
'No.'
And I didn t promise mv wile,
either, ract is, I believe I shal
unite as soon as I find some gooi
woman.'
'And my children need a father's
care,' she sighed, as she pulled John
Henry oft the window sill and put
him on a seat
The man got up and walked about
the waiting room and took a closer
look at the children. Then return
ingsaid:
'I suppose vouv'e got a few hun
dred dollars, belong to some church,
can wash and bake and mend, and
are ot a very mud and forgiving dis
position?'
'Yes, that's me.'
'Well, I'm kinder religious, even
tempered and am worth about two
thousand dollars, i ra 6ort o struck
on you. there s something about
your eyes that reminds me ot Han
ner.
'And you look like Alonzo around
the mouth.'
Then he bent over and whispered
something about Chicago and get-
tine married, and she nodded her
head.
He gatherrd his children under
his wing, took them into the corner,
and solemnly and impressively ob
served :
'Children, I'm going to get mar
ried to that woman over there and
give you a new mother. It any ol
you is going to kick and boohoo
about it, begin now, so that I can
tune ye down before the train goes.
Henry, vou are the oldest. Are you
going to declare that you'll run away
or commit suicide? Let me know
right now, for this is a good cool
piace to prance ve around with a
shingle.'
Henry said he guessed it would
be all right, and the rest of the
crowd seemed to agree, and ten min
utes later the widower and widow
sat holding hands and trying to eat
peanuts, and the twelve children
were biting and pulling hair and
kicking to see who should have a
seat on the steam heater.
'This is kinder the work of Heav
en !' chuckled the widower as he
hitched a little nearer.
'You bet, love !' she replied, as
she shucked another peanut with
her teeth.
Making Indian Tobacco.
' Another cake of tobacco readily
enlisted a red man to show me how
to nrenare Indian tobacco. We
went together down to the stream
and cut a hand full or two of red wil
low twigs, while the boy who was
with us picking a handful of sumac
leaves, and another of wire grass.
Thua provided we returned to the
lodge, and the ashes of a cedar char
coal fire being fanned into a red
heat (with my hat, by the way,which
one of the Indians unceremoniously
took off my head for the purpose),
the process commenced. The outer
red bark of the willow twigs was
first of all peeled off and thrown
aside It is generally supposed that
the Indians smoke this bark, out
this is a mistake and then the un
der yellow bark was peeled upward
in strips, but left attached to the
twig at one end. As each twing wa
peeled it was stuck into the ground
at the edge of the tire (sloping slight
ly over the embers), and the strips
of yellow underbark hanging down
craduallv curled up with the neat,
crinkling themselves into a kind of
rosette round the top ot the twig.
When they had shrivelled up as
tightly as they could do the twig was
pulled up, and the crisp bark crum
bled off between the bands on to a
clean spot prepared for it "on the
hearth." The result was the "kin
nikinic" of travellers, a pale yellow
pile of stuff resembling "granulated"
tobacco. Meanwhile the wiregrass
had been roughly plaited into a lit
tle mat about the size of the palms
of the two hands, and on this a layer
of sumac leaves has bten spread out
As soon as the latter began to wrin
kle up with the heat they were turn
ed over, and eventually, when they
had ceased forming into blisters, and
when, therefore, the moisture was
all dried out, they were taken oil
and powdered between the hands,
aud the result mixed with tbe ''kin-nikinic."
I was now informed that the to
bacco was ready; so, having clenr.eiJ
my pipe as thoroughly as possible,
and fastened ray cigaretin holder
over the mouth-piece, I tilled Puk
wana up to the muz.le with tin
ndian mixture and smoked i.
What was it like? Well, it was very
ike willow bark and sumac leaves,
but not a bit like tobacco. It was
neither narcotic nor stimulant, but
rather pleasant, mild and aromatic
to the taste, giving out a profuse
smoke of acrid smell.
Marrying tn Jrtt. .
A Miss Flora Hastings an estima
te young lady of San Francisco, sev
enteen years of age was induced by
her male companion a youn man of
eighteen named Kelly to go through
a marriage ceremony with him jusl
forlun. It was a pleasant October
afternoon ; they were waiting at a
railroad deot for a train and as
they had plenty of time oa their
hands no doubt the mock marriage
ceruuony proved la- Vferyagiatable
diversement to themselves and their
friends.
The young lady thought no more
of the jest until nearly a year later
when to her surpise and consterna
tion her mock husband of the pre
ceding Autumn claimed her as his
lawful wife on the strength of the
ceremony which she had consented
to take part in "just for fun." She
applied to a New York court for a
decree setting aside the mock mar
riage but being so little convinced
of its binding character she while
her suit was tiii pet-ding was mar
ried in orthodox fashion to General
Kepes of San Francisco. The latter
learning altera while of the former
mock marriage and the New York
divorce proceedings has himself
ap plied lor a divorce on the ground
that his wile has another husband
living and that in fact when he
thought he was marrvini Miss
Hastings he was really marrving
Mrs. Kelly.
Yeung people who amuse them
selves with mock marriages exhibit
about as little good sense as that
other class of humorists who find
entertainment in aiming pistols at
their friends which they do not
know are loaded. A marriage cere
mony may be a very "irorrV- thing
but it is usually loaded and should
never be trifled with.

Planting Trees.
Deep planting is one error to
plant a tree rather shallower than it
formerly stood is really the right!
way, whilst many plant a tree as
they would a post Hoots are of two
kinds the yougand tender rootlets,
composed entirely of cells, the feed
ers of the trees, always found near
the surface getting air and moisture;
and roots of over one year old, which
serve only as supporteis of the tree
and conductors of its food. Hence
the injury that ensues when the del
icate rootlets are so deeply buried iu
the earth. Placing green or fresh
manure in contact with the young
roots is another great error. The
place to put manure is on the sur
face, where the elements disintegrate,
dissolve and carry it downward.
Numerous forms of fungi are gener
ated and reproduced by the applica
tion of such manures directly to the
roots and they immediately attack
the tree. It is very well to enrich
the soil at transplanting the tree,
but the manure, if to be in contact
with or very near the roots, should
be thoroughly decomposed.

1 he mackerel catcher has a some
what peculiar experience. Vessels
of this class are of the 6ame rig,
tonnage and lading as the cod fish
except in them the sein takes the
place of the trawl. The scene of
their operations is rather wider, too
as they meet the mackerel on their
appearance in the spring as far south
as irginia and followed them to
the shores of Greenland and Iceland.
George's bank, io the open sea about
one hundred and fifty miles off
Cape Ann, and the Dominion water
are however the favorite hshsing
grounds. When one of these ves
sels reaches the spot where her prey
may lie taken, a sharp watch is kept
for the schools which may be seen
playing about on the surface; old
salts aver that they can smell a
school of mackerel as well as men
haden. When one is sighted, tbe
listlessness of the crew gives away to
animation. The purstine, coiled on
the alter hatch is hastily thrown in
to the seine-boat, which has been
towing astern since. the vessel left
port. Two dories are let down and
in company with the stine boat, row
out toward theschool. At the prop
er time the seine boss gives the word
the two dories take each end of the
seine, some two hundred and fifty
fathoms in length and in three min
utes enclose the school. The seine
is "passed," and the schooner is
signalled to come alongside. There
are five hundred barrels of large fat
mackerel in the"purse. The method
of transferring them to the vessels
is much like that practiced by the
menhaden steamers. A large dip
net with long handles worked by
tacking is let down into the strug
gling mass and throws them on the
I vessel's deck by the half barrel.
This done the operation cf "dressing
down"begins by throwing the catch
into a square trough twelve men of
the crew of fourteen then attack
them with knives dexterously open
them by a slit down the back and
clean them at a stroke; they are then
washed asorted into various grades
according t3 the size and fatnees and
packed in barrels one barrel of Liv
erpool salt being required for four
barrels of fish. So rapidly do they
work that fortv seven barrels have
been cleaned and packed in two
hours and a half. Meantime two
men have been overhauling the
scene repairing it where a shark or
bluefish has made a rent and the men
are ready for another haul perhaps
to work for hours rithout securing
a barrel.

mode of comparison is the light

amount of current flowing so that
the number of amperes gives the
degree of illumination. The stand
