THE EVE OF HEW WEDDING.
Bash I let m hide my happiness,
A little while lit grief hold sway,
And sweetness hlend with blttornesa,
Before I give myself away.
Boon, noon, must pass for evermore
The scenes of old; now paths I ohooso)
Oh, lot dis count my treasures o'er,
Tbnt, winning love's delights, I lone.
Dear home ! How all In nooks and trres,
Kncall my childhood' Joy and toara,
Mixed with Immortnl memories
Of twouty tranquil, transient years!
Familiar sounds of birds and bees
On summer eevnlngs fair and still,
Bet to the music of the hrmo,
Or twilight tinkling of tlio rill.
Oh, babbling brook s oh, darling glade,
Old church beside thiuu ancient yew,
Where oft my ohlldhh foot Imvo strayed,
I bid you all a Inst adieu !
Mf father smiles, and chides In rnln
Thfl tears my mother's love lets fall
My sister's heart Is wrung with pain
Good-by 1 1 soon must leavo you all I
This little hour I give to grief,
With tender thoughts my oyoi aro wot;
I almost seem to llnd relief
In reminiscence aud regrut t
One little hour ! Mine woman's oyes
With waning childhood's dows are dim.
Away I Love calls ! I must arise.
And huston forth and follow him.
BV CAROLINE FRANCES LITTLE.
It was on Holinn's s eventoenth birth
day, and while sbe was washing the
breakfast dishes, that her mother said
to her :
"Now, Selina, it's about time yon
begun to make your clothes; my
mother began hers at 16 and I did the
me, everything in dozens with night
caps to match, and all the sheets and
pillow cases in pairs. I told yonr pa
and he has ordered piece of sheeting
and another of cotton cloth of lighter
weight, and it's onr birthday present
to yon, for we waut yon to have a
good setting out"
Selina looked surprised, for there
was no prospect of her marrying, but
he said:
"Thauk you, ma, bnt I guess there
ain't no great hurry."
"No one knows, "replied Mrs. Bates,
as she moulded her loaves of bread
and placed them in the pnns; "it's
alters best to be forehanded, but I do
wish yon didn't favor you pa; it's well
enough for a man to hnve red hair,
bnt it looks kinder bold in a woman."
Solina cut out the first garment for
her trousseau thnt very day, and ns
the weoks went by she found a certain
pleasure in it. When each gnrment
or sheet was finished she laid it away
in her mother's, wedding trnnk, pinn
ing a sprig of lavender between the
folds.
There was a grcnt doal to be done
in the farmhouse, so thnt Selina did
not fiud as much time for her new
work as she wished, but then, as she
often Bnid, "There ain't no great
hurry, ma."
When she was 10 a mancntne to the
village and opened a (tinging class in
the schoolhouse; the term was to con
sist of twelve lessons. Seliun and
ber friends all joinod, lutn she hud
the best voice the teacher soon be
gau to show signs of interest in her,
aud during the last few weoks of the
term he called for her and escorted
her home from the cIubs; on Sunday
evenings he frequently dropped, in,
"to take a dish of tea," as Mrs. Bates
expressed it, and go to meetiug with
Selina. The happy girl worked all
the time thnt she could spare from her
duties upou her mysterious white gar
ments. The last night of the singing school
'came, and as he walked home with her
her heart beat fast.
"Seline," he Baid, "I have been a
wantlug to tell you something, but
somehow I never get to it."
Her cheeks grew as red as her hair
as he coutinned:
"I'm going to be married in the
spring."
"You dou't sayl" she ejaculated,
with a little nervous giggle. She
wished that she had begun her "set
ting out" when she was IB as her
grandmother and mother had done.
'"Yes," said he, "she and I have
been keeping company for a long spell
back. Hue's riuht pretty, with brown
hair, but her voice ain't as strong as
yours; she works in the cotton mills
np to Lowell, aud I guess that's bud
lor her throat."
So that romance ended, but still
Selina sewed on, for it takes a long
time to make everything in sets of
dozens with nightcaps to match.
When she was 27 her mother died,
and her last injunction was:
"Don't wear any of them garments;
yonr unbleached is good enough, aud
dd to your stock as you get time.
It's aller's best to be forehanded."
When she was 81 her father died,
nd the farm was hers; but oht the
loneliness of her life. Hiram, "the
hired help," whom her father had em
ployed, carried on the farm for her.
The years came and went until at
last her 87th birthday dawned. She
went up to the trnnk that day (she al
ways aired the contents of it twice a
J'ear, and renewed the sprigs of
avender).
"Tweuty years ago today, "she said
rather bitterly, as she unfolded the
garments, "lent out the first one,
ud they are all done, and have been
for years, with oaps to match I Twenty
years I But as mother said, 'It's
alters best to be forehanded,' and I'm
that if I aiu't nothing else."
When she was washing the few tea
dishes that night she heard s knock
at the kituheu dour. Drviug ber
hand on the roller she opeu'ed it.aud
.
there -stood Silas MoCabe, who had
recently returned from the far west
"Well, Silas, walk right in and set
while I do np my dishes. I am
awful glad to see yon."
"Law, now, Selina, this 'ere does
look homelikel I've come to settle
down and so I'm callin' 'round to see
the neighbors."
"That's right, Silns," she added,
"and yon mnst feel kinder louely now
that Hairy Anu is dead."
"Yes; I lost her nearly a year ago,
and ns we never had no children, I'm
ell alone."
"That's hard lines for yon, Silns."
"Yes, and yonr pn and ma is gone,
too, ain't they ?"
When he rose to go he said: "Well,
I'll drop in again, Selina; I'm staying
nt Cousin Fete's, and it's none too
lively there."
"Do roll again," she said sweetly.
On his way over to tho fnrm the
next night he thought to himself:
"Hairy Ann never had no faculty for
gettin' on and Helina seems real fore
handed; the year is nearly np, and
I'd kinder like to be married whon the
anniversary comes round."
He found everything very neat in
the little kitched and Selina seemed
glad to see him. During the evening
he drew his splint-bottomed chair np
closo to hors and said:
"Hay, Selina, the year is nenrly npj
conld yon got ready by thnt timo?
"How soon is it, Silas?"
" 'Hont ten days, I reckon; I nllors
cared for yon, Holinn, iu school more
than I did for Hairy Ann and I wish I
hadu't minded your hair then; I think
it's real peart now; and somehow
Hairy Ann never seemed to have any
faculty for gettin' on."
"Well, I gness I'm forehanded
enough to get ready in that time," re
plied blushing Selina.
As she' blew ont her ' cnndlo that
night she said to hereslf : "Only ten
days I Well Miss Clark can make
over ma's green silk and I'll got a new
alnpuoa; that'll be all I'll need, for
my trunk of clotber is all ready. Ma
was in the right when she said 'it's
alters best to be forehanded,' even if
pa did say it was gal's foolishness."

WESTERN SCOUT NO MORE.
Their l'lrtureinnn Calling It u Inert by
4'lvilizatlnn.
About the most pitifully cheerless
men in the west nowadays are those
who have given the greater part of
their lives to scouting for the army,
and occasionally for a cattle compnuy
or.a band of miners, who have endured
a generation of savage hardships and
have braved all the dangers of the
plains, and now, grizzled and gray,
realize that their occupation is gone
forever. There nre scoros of the old
fellows in the Territories. Several
hundred of the younger scouts hnve
become vaqueros, sheep herders, ex
press messengers aud gnnrds, cattle
men, railroad meu, miners and pros
pectors. Electricity and rnilroads
principally have made scouting obso
lete, and nine? the Apaches iu the
Boutbwest and tho Sioux iu the north
went have been b.aten into peaceful
relations with tho white settlers
there has been no demnnd for the
services of the old-time scout. Th'i
war department kept some of the
scouts on the payrolls at the frontier
garrisons long alter scouting had be
come comparatively nsoloss to tho
army, but in 1800 tiie pny of many of
the old heroes wns cut oft", n"d by
18!)(1 less than a dozen white sconts
remained in the employ of the depart
ment in the southwest. In every town
of any size in this region one may see
some of the veteran scouts poor in
purse, tattered of person loafing
about the saloons, telling visitors from
the east of the glories of the frontier be
fore civilization and railroads spoiled
it all, and half heartedly building
hopes of the day when something un
expected may transpire and scouting
may be called into demand again.
There are a dozen scouts of 25 and 30
yenrs' service spending their Inst dnys
iu poverty aud melancholy in Phicnix,
Arizona. At Prcscott, Arizona, a
score of old-time scouts live on tho
bonuty of cattlemen aud gold miners.
As years corse and go and the sconts
see not the least sign of a revival of
their departed occupation, they be
come more touchingly glum.
Like the knight in the band of
Iticbard the Lion Heart, who thanked
God he was not a clerk, the true scout
of the Western plains has few if any
counterparts. Along with the Bang
ers of Texas he is one of America's
most characteristic and picturesque
types. No wonder he was soil ed upon
bo unanimously by authors and paint
ers as material for romance and pic
ture. The wilduess aud at the same
time the peculiar tenderness of the
scout's life, the adventurous charac
ter of his daring, his coolness and sa
gacity in the midst of danger, his use
of simplest facts in nature to gain his
ends, his roamiugs iu regions hitherto
untrodden by white meu, his thor
ough knowledge of the ways of red
men, and especially his craftiness, are
all features in the life of a genuine
scout of the plains that stimulate the
imagination of story tellers aud pic
ture makers. It is hard in these
days to realize how great a part the
scouts of the forties and fifties played
in the settlement and the civilization
of the plains and the Pacific coast.
. Kit Carson was the earliest aud he
till remains the most famous Allien
can scout. The way he guided the
Fremout exploring expedition through
the Hooky mountains in 1811, and
thence, in 1848, spine 1700 miles aoroBS
the trackless desert pluius, abounding
with Indians, past Salt Lake iu Utah,
through the snow and ice of the passes
of the Sierras to California, is as thril
ling chapter as may be found in
fiction. From that time till ten years
ago ths war department constantly
employed soouts in ths Western army
service.

A 1.IO of General Natfinnael Greene.
General Xathanael Greene was the
son of a Bhode Island Quaker and was
born at the town of Potowomut June
(!, 1742. Kathanael's father supported
his family by farming and blacksmith
work, doing one when thore was no
chance of profit in the other. He
expected his son to bo a blacksmith
and taught him the trade, bnt the boy
was bright and ambitious, and man
aged by much reading at night to learn
a good deal about history, tho law anA
mathematics. When he w as 23 he so )
up a forge for himself at Coventry, ami
was elected to the Khode Island
Legislature. He, of course, was bit
terly opposed to the English oppres
sion of the colonists, and when the
war of the Involution broke out iu
spite of the protests of his family,
who, like all Quakers did not believe
in fighting, he joined the army of
Washington as commander of the i000
volunteers from Rhode Island. He
was made brigadier general and sorved
with honor nt the battles of Trenton,
Princeton, Monmouth and Springfield.
In 1780 he took command of the south
ern branch of the American forces,
the battles of the Cowpons, Guilford
Courthouse and Entnw Springs, free

He died from sunstroke at his estate
in Savannah on June 19, 1786. Tren

The Fairy Mercury.
In her dress of silvery white, Fairy
Mercury looked so much like silver,
and could move about so quickly, that
a great many people called her Quick
silver; but thnt was not hor renl name.
Thnt was the fairy, Mercnry.
She lived in the queerest kind of a
house. Thero were only a glass ball
about as large as a pea, for the base
meut, and a slender glass tube above
it for the secoud and third floors.
This odd little house was fastened
in a frame, and hung outside the front
door of a cottage.
The people who lived in the cottage
seemed very fond of the fairy Mer
cury; at least they came and looke.i at
her ovory day. She imagined it was
because they thought her so pretty,
but you and I know better, do we not?
The fairy Mercury was something
like a worm iu one thing; she conld
stretch herself until she reached away
up the glass tube, and could also
shorten her body until her head was
not far from the little ball. I think
she disliked cold weather, for when
winter came she never climbed very
high in her glass tube, aud when it
was very cold, she drew nearer and
nearer to the glnss ball.
Then the people seemed to think
more of her than ever, and tho fairy
Mercury was often greatly puzzled t
know why they said such strange
things when they looked at her.
Sometimes they called ont "Freez
ing!" "What do'they mean by that?"
said the fairy Mercury. Do they
think I'm freezing? Well, I'm not.
It takes a great deal to freeze ine, I
can tell them."
Then again, when it was very, very
cold, and everybody was hurrying to
get indoors, almost every one who
looked nt her said, "Zero," or "Five
below." Even people on the street
ran np the cottage stops, took a peep
nt her, and went o.T saying the same
thing, "Zero," "Three below," "Five
be'ow, " It wns very strange the fairy
Mercury thought, but as no one hurt
hor she didn't care how often they
looked.
When Rpring came, with its warm
breozos and blue skies, sho g.ew live
lier, and crept up to the second floor
of her house, where she spent the
most of hor time looking out.
She enjoyed watching the birds
build their nests, the leaves come out
ou the trees, and the man planting
seods in tho flower bed before the
cottage door. As the weather grew
wanner, Rhe climbed higher and
higher, and the higher she went, the
more people noticed her.
Then came the summer, It wns
very hot, and so dry that the grass,
the lovely rones, and even the great
elm trees were all crying for water.
Gentlemen went past with large um
brellas over their heads; Indies sat on
porches, fanning, aud all the childrou
wore their very thinnest aud coolest
clothing to school.
The fa'.ry Morcnry kept on climbing
and was noticed more than ever. In
deed, there seomod always to be some
one looking at her; nnd they said just
as queer things as they did in whiter.
For a whole week she hoard them say,
"Xinoty!" "Xinety-two!" or "Xiuet'y
five!" nnd one very hot day they said,
"One hundred-two in the shade! how
can we over stand it!" nnd they
groaned and wiped their faces agaiu
aud again. ,
"These are strange people," said
the fairy Mercury; "they really act as
if I had somothiug to do with the
weather; but I haven't. Yet, some
how, heat always makes me waut to
climb, aud cold makes me shrink."
When autumn ca ne, with its fruits
aud nuts, she dropped down to the
first floor of her little house, whore
she had speut the springtime. Now
she looked out upon the leaves as they
fell, aud the gardener as he gathered
his seeds. One day she heard the
robins chirping "Good-bye."
"Ah," said the fuiry Mercury,
"summer has gone, sure enough."
Then the days grew colder, and she
dropped lower and lower iu the glass
tube, until another winter came.
So you see, that as both beat and
cold moved her, she went up and down
iu her little house a great many times
each year. Did you ever see the fairy
Mercury or her glass house? Did you
ever watch her move? Do you kuow
what we call the fairy and her house?

and center-back seams, an underlying
box plait laid at the end of the back
earn just below the waist line to give
necessary fulness to the skirt. The
fronts close with buttons and button
holes, a gray and yellow cord finished
with tassels tied in front forming a
girdle around the waist. The pointed
hood is shaped by a single seam and
may be lined or not, as preferred. It
may be made adjustable or included
in the neok seam with collar, or omit
ted if not desired. The two-seamed
sleeves combine style with simplicity,
as they fit the arm closely aud are ex
tremely comfortable. All kinds of
flannel and Turkish toweling, camel's
hair, merino, soft serge and cheviot,
as well as the lighter weights of double
faced cloths, are used to muke wrap

lined throughout with bright plaid to

To make this robe for a lady of me

Separata Wsliti a Permanency.
Separate waists continue in favor
and give evidence of having taken a
permanent hold. The simple design
shown in the large engraving is both
smart and eomfortuble, being snug
without tightness aud embodying the
suggestion of the sailor style, which
is always admirable for informal wear.
As illustrated the material is a blue
and white stripe, with collar of plain
blue banded with biaid, but a plain
color is equally suitable, and various
combinations can be made. Where,
as in this instance, the vest matches
the waist, it is effective of white pique
or cloth, and where the collar is bluo
the rest can be made white, and if de
sired the skirt may mutch.
The foundation, which is a fitted
lining, closes at the oentro front, but
the waist proper is fitted with shoulder
and under-arm seams only, and closes
invisibly at the side. The slseves,
while snug enough for style, are not
over tight, aud are finished with cuffs
that matoh ths collar.
To maks this waist for a woman of
medium size two and one-quarter
yards of material thirty-six iuohes
wide will bs required.

prove advantageous to other women.
She had a stylish black hat, trimmed
with huge bows of black taffeta and a
fold or two of the same about the
crown. This answered for ordinary
wear. Bnt the cleverness of the
woman was that she so arranged her
ombre trimmings as to admit the ad
dition of a black and white tulle pom
pon, an extra fold of white silk veiled
with black lnce, and a small bunch of
white victets at the back. A con
