Away out Gratiot avonuo, far from tho din and turmoil of tho business centre, there nro many attractivo homes. Tho intersecting streets are wide, clean and shadoJ by large leaf-covero I trees, and tho peoplo you moot arc typical of industry, oconomy and honost toil. Thoro aro many pretty residences, but nono more inviting in Its neatness and home like com'ort than that of Mr. Levi Elsoy, tho well-known builder anl contractor, at 71 Moranstreet, just oil Gratiot. Mr. Elsey is an old resident of Detroit, having movad hero about forty years ago. lie has orecto I hundreds of houses In different parts of tho city, and points with pride to such buildings ns tho Nowborry fc McMullan an l Campaw blocks, in which ho displayed his ability as a superintendent. "I have soon Datroit grow frm a village to a city," ho observed yosterday in convor r.atlon with tho writer, "an I I don't think there nro many towns in America to- lay equal to it in point ofboauty. I knowalmost tverybo iy in tho city, n1 an Incident whieh recently happenod in my life has iulorestod all my friends. "It is now about olght yean ago since I was stricken down with my first c.aso of ill ness. Ono col J, blustering day I w.as down town and through my natural carelessness at that time I pormitto I myself to got chlllo.l right through. When I arrived home that evening I 'oit a Ro r * o 'm piin in my loft log. I bathed it that nig'if, hut by morning I fouu iit hud grown worse. In fact it was so serious that I sent lor my family physician, nn t ho informed mo that 1 was suffering from varicose veins. Mv log swelled up to double its natural size and the pain Incr -aso-l In vo'umo. Tne agony was simply awfiP. I was laid up an I never left my bed fot eight weeks. At times I felt as though I would grow Irani e with pain. My leg was ban daged an l was propped up in the lied nt an angle of thirty degrees, in orier to keep the b'oo.l from flowing to my extremities. "J had several doctors attending me. but I believe my own judgment helped me hotter than theirs. After a siege of two months I could move arouu ?. still I was on the sick list .and had to doctor myself for years. I wu< never really cured and suffered any amount oi anguish. "About two years ago I noticed nu article in tho Keening \cir.t about my ri*rnl, Mr. Northrup the Woodward AVHDUO mere ban t. In nn interview with hint ho stated that ho had used I)t*. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People and that they cured ltlm. I knew him very well, having built his house out Wood* ward Ave., tinri I thought I would follow his suggestion. I must • oufess I did HO with marvelous success. From tho time I began to take the Pink Pills I lelt myself growing to bo a new man. They acted on mo like a magical stimulant. The pain departed nnd I soon was an strong and healthy HH ever. Before trying tho Pink Pills I had used any amount ot other medicine without any no ticeable benefit. But the Pills cured mo and 1 was mysolf again. "When a person finds himself relieved and enjoying health ho is apt to expose lilmselt again to another attack oi illness. Some three months ago I stopped taking tho Pink PiIIH, and from tho day I did so 1 noticed a change in my condition, A short timo sinco 1 renewed my habit of taking thorn with tlu* same beneficial results which met me for merly. iam again nearly as strong as ever, although I am a man about fifty-six years o. age. J mil juti, ir. the Pink Pills are a most wonderful medicine, and it tlioy do as well in other cases as they did in mine they arc the best in tho world. 1 freely rocommon I them to any sufferer."

On tho floor, by tho side of his chair, tho ru/alito had deposited a small car petbag. As he sat waiting for bis or der tho city chap thought ho noticed the grip move. Ife regarded it closely for a few moments and then felt sure that it moved. "What have you there—imps?" he asked tho hoosier. "Naw, they ain't pups," replied the old fellow, as ho proceeded with liis lunch. Tho grip rolled half over from the mysterious force inside, and the city man's curiosity got tho better of him. "What have you there, anyway?" he asked. "Wall, I'll tell ye," said tho grangor, deliberately. "I'm takiu' home a cou ple of gamo cocks. What? Yaas, I know cock-flgliting is agin the law, hut I ain't got 'em for flghtin'. It's just like this: My ol' lady has chickens an' I hev a garden. We're each proud uv our departments.

I must away to woodod hills aud vales, Where broad, slow streams flow cool and silently, And Idle barges flap their listless anils— For me tho summer sunset glows and pales, And green fields wait for mo. I long for shadowy forests, whero tho bird 6 Twitter and ohirp at noon from overy tree. I long for blossomed leaves and lowing herds. And nature's voices say, in mystio words, "Tho green Holds wait for thee.'* I dream of uplands, whero tho primrose shines, And waves her yellow lamps above the lea ; Of tangled eopscs, swung with trailing vines, Of open vistas, skirted with tall pines, Where green fields wait for me. I think of long, sweet nftcrnoons, when I May Ho and listen to tho distant son, Or hear tho breezes in tho reeds that sigh, Or insect voices chirping shrill and dry, In fields that wait forme. These dreams of summer come to bid mo find Tho forest's shade, tho wild bird's melody, Whtlo summer's rosy wreuths for mo are twined, While summer's fragranco lingers on the wind, And green Holds wait for me. —George Arnold. DARKEST BEFORE DAWK. BY IIEBEN FORREST GRAVES. § HERE'S nothing in tho paper," said Au rora Clymer— "abso lutely nothing!" Slio throw down the printed sheet as shnspolto— a tall girl, with wistful blue eyes and hair droop \ >ng a In Psycho over her forehead. 'C "Then," said Mir inm, "that's three cents wasted. And there aro not many cents left." "Oatmeal and coffee for breakfast!" sighed Aurora. "And it was coffee and oatmeal yesterday ! Ob, dear, how wretched it is to be poor ! How sick oue does get of things!" "Try to remember that it's always 'darkest just before daylight,' " en couraged Miriam. "Sit up to the table, dear, and eat something. It's nice and hot!" Miriam was a sweet, fresh-faced girl of eighteen. Not, perhaps gifted with Aurora's beauty, but when you looked at Miriam Clymer once, yon always wanted to look tho second time. _ "Where is Polly?" fretfully ques tioned the elder sister. ' 'lt doos seem to mo as if—" At that self same moment, however, tho door flew open and a rosy, flushed damsel burst into tho room like a southwest gale. "Breakfast tiuio alroady?" cried Polly. "My goodness mo, how tho time docs fly?" Polly Clviner had very blnok eyes, which laughed at you like a sunboam, a crop of short black curls, and tooth which, although rather irrogulnr, were milk white, and her two cheeks were like two roses nowly bloßsomod. "Girls, I've been so busy I" said Polly. Aurora frowned n littlo. "I wish I was busy," said she. Miriam helped her younger Bister to oatmeal. 'T should bo busy too," said Mir iam, "if thera was ntiything to do." "How perfectly ridiculous all this i"!" cried Polly, waving her spoon. "As if thero wasn't always something to do 1 Of courno Aurora would rather do typewriting, because that's tho trade she's learned—" "Trade?" echoed tho scandalizod beauty. "And Miriam knows more about music lessons than anything else; but if one can't get what one wants, one must wnnt what ono can got, And I've onruod a dollar this morning al ready, " "What!" cried Miriam. "Moro oatmeal, please," said Polly. "Oh, yos, I've washed and dressed a dear littlo girli'o in tho fiat downstairs, and packed hor littlo doll'e toy of a trunk for tho train. You seo, the nurse got angry and wont away. Tho mother was that pallid consumptive who was buried last week, and tho father is a sort of ne'er-do-well, who plays tho cymbals iu Jones's Theatre and don't pay any of his bills. And tho janitress was at hor wits' end what to do, and I stepped into the breach. It mado mo think of tho good old times when I played with a doll almost as big as I was." "But where on earth is tho child going?" asked Miriam. "To her friends I suppose. I loft her asleep in the crib, and tho land lady's littlo girl watching her. I'm to go back after my breakfast. There, Mirry"—aH sho tossed a big silver dol lar to tho housokeeper-sister— "take that to buy moro oatmeal. And look hero, Miriam, Doctor Puttitt has got a big ordor for the Rosebud Balm to go to a watering place somcwhoro on tho Jersey const, aud wants some one to paste on labels and tio up tho bot tles, without loss of time. Thero'B n chance!" Aurora drew herself up. "I don't think George Beldon would like it," said she. "Oh, Oeorgo—bothor Qoorgo I Ho's nothing but a <lrng clerk himsolf. It s none of his business one way or the other I" cried Polly. "Well, perhaps if you won't men tion it, said Aurora, timidly. "One has one s professional reputation to maintain, yon know." "Stuff! said Polly. "Doctor Puf fit's a good-natured old soul, and I reully think if some one don't rally to his assistance, he'll get an apoplec tic fit.' 1 "And," suggested Miriam, "since there's nothing in tho 'Wanteds' to day, you might as well bo earning a little in some way, Aurora." Doctor Pufßt was in tho front base ment of the big flat where the Clymor sisters dwelt, surrounded by gallon jars of "Rosebud Balm" aud moun tains of bottles. Ho looked despair ingly up from this chaos. "The order goes out on tho three o'clock express,*' said he, "and that wretch Alphonse, lias not been near me to-day. I will discharge Alphonse. I won't put up with his nonsense au other hour. My dear young lady, you don't say you will actually help me? Then my business character is saved ! Tho Silver Beach hotels will know of tho greatest discovery of tho age, and I shall vindicate this great prepara tion—which is not a cjsmetic nor a drug, but a marvel!" Polly went back to her baby, who was awake now and smiling like a mediroval cherub in an altar painting. "You darling 1" said she, with a hug and a kiss. "How any ono could go off and leave you, I cannot— Oh!" with u sudden stiffening of hor rosy features, "so you are Dolly Temple's father, are yen?" For a middle-aged gentleman stood in tho doorway, look ing fpiestiouingly at her. "Well, j'oti needn't come back here. The child's mother's friends are to take her away at once. And perhaps, if you hadn't been so dissipated and neglectful of poor Mrs. Temple, slio might have been here now. I can't help it; some one ought to tell you what tho people in this house are saying about it. I don't want to bo hard on you," she added, "but if you were to sign the plodge, and try—really try to do hot ter for tho future—" "I really think that is unnecessary," interrupted a composed voice, "for I am already a strict temperanco man. You are mistaken, young woman. I mil not Sergius Temple, but Mr. Cnr thow, the father of tho Into Mrs. Tem ple. Tho telegram was delayed, and I linvo only just received tho summons to come." Polly blushed to tho very roots of her curly hair. She had not a word to say for herself. "Oh, why couldn't I hnvo minded my own business," thought she. "It's just as tho girls are always telling me. My tongue is a deal too long." "Are you the nurse?" io asked, sternly. But the jauitress, hurrying up at this moment, speedily enlightened him as to the exigencies of the case. "It's a young lady, sir," said she, "from ouo of tho other npartmeuts, and what wo should have done without hor I'm sure I don't know. The dear little miss has took to her so kind." Tho sternness of Mr. Carthow's benring abated somewhat. "She is very good," said ho. "As I hnvo no one to take charge of my daughter's child, I shall bo pleased to engage her servioos for the prosent." "I know that other woman wasn't good to her," observed the janitress. Polly lookod at the baby, tile baby held out its little hands, with an in distinct, cooing sound, like a bird in tho hedgos. "I'll go," said Polly. "The train leaves in twenty min utes," said Mr. Cnrthew, looking at his watch. Polly rushed up stnirs for her hnt and shawl. Hbo left a scribbled note on the tablo for her sisters, neither of whom was in the room, and with Mr. Carthew and tho baby just caught the train. "I— I don't know where we are go ing," stammered Polly. "How neglectful of ine not to hnvo mentioned it," said Mr..Carthew. "To my country sent at Silver Bench." "Oh," thought Polly, "if Aurora only knew ! Ho has got a country seat, has lis? I do hope Mrs. Carthew will be good to mo. I woudcf if thero are auy daughters, aud if thoy Would like a musical govornoss? Booauso if Miriam could get a place, I think wo should be pol'fectly happy," But she glanced surreptitiously at Mr. Onrthew's grave, handsome face, aud lneked the conrngo to nsk any lnore questions, "He must have mnrried very young," thought she. A stout lady, iu a blnok silk gown and white muslin npron, mot them on the steps of a pretty seaside cottage, with a belt of piue trees iu tho rear, aud the curling fringes of tho Atlan tic Ocean in front, and welcomed the now treasure warmly. "This is my housokeopor," said Air, Carthew. "Mrs. Mott, Miss Clymer is tho now nursery governess for Miss Temple. Make her as comfortable as you can," "Mrs. Carthew is not at home?" Polly vontured to nsk, as the blnck silk matron led the way down a long corridor covered with cool, cheeked matting. "Bless your heart-," said Airs. Alott, "there ain't nny Airs. Carthew. If slio'd been living, my young lady would never have mado that foolish, runaway match." "Nor any Aliss Carthnws?" "Nor any Aliss Carthowß," nodod Alt's. Alott. Polly took tho bnby out on the bench for n walk next day, It seemed more like tho doll-playing days of her childhood than ever, or else like a pleasant summer dream. "I'll walk as iar as the drug store," Baid sho to herself. "There's quite a settlement of houses around the hotel, and some very pretty stores. I've a great mind to walk in and ask for a bottle of Doctor l'uflitt's Rosebud Balm for the Complexion." Sho did so. Polly Clymer was never lacking in cool audacity, whatever might have been her other deficien cies. "Why, Tolly, is this you?" dc manded a familiar voice behind the countej "Goodness me f" cried Polly. "It'i George Belden!" "Yes," aid the tall, straight young druggist. "Why, didn't you know it? I've bought out this business, and I've telographed for Aurora to come down and marry me. We may as well spend our lionoyin oou by the seaside att-md ing to business. The dear little girl, ouly to think of her pasting on all them labels herself! Pufiitt told me about it. Puflit supplies the capital, you see, on condition of my pushing his specialty. I've taken a cottage, and telegraphed Aurora to bring yon and Miriam along, too. Silver Beach is a rising place, and there's plenty to bo done here.'' "I'm awfully obliged to yon George," said Polly, holding up the baby, "but I'm a nursery governess at present, and can't leave my situa tion. But I'll call nnd see you and Mrs. Belden as often as possible." And she strolled buck to the Car thew cottage along the edge of the Atlantic, talking soft, unintelligible nonsense to tho baby as she went. Three months afterward, George Beldeu shut up the "seaside branch" to return to the New York store which Doctor Puttitt had purchased and dec orated in Alger iull - Moo r esq a o style with moro gold-leaf and peacock plumes than would have seemed possi ble to tho uninitiated mind. "The Rosebud Balm has been a suc cess," cackled Doctor Puttitt. "And I owo it in no small degree to Beldou's enterprise. Belden's is a genius." Mrs. Belden had decided to assist her husband in the store. "It'B a great denl nicer than type writing," said she, "and twice as profitable. And Miriam will keep house for us. You haven't ventured to ask Mr. Cartliew whether he'll bo returning to that Madison Avenue pal ace of his, Polly?" "Oh, I have asked kiin!" said Polly. "I'm not afraid of Mr. Car tliew any longer." "Notwithstanding his princely wnyr,," for Aurora stood in great awe of the statoly gentleman. "And you will be continued on?" "No," Polly nnswored. "Mr. Car tliew has engagod a new nursery gov orness for Dotty." Aurora clasped her hands tragic nllv. "Oh, Polly 1" she criod. "And you will lose your place?" Polly lifted tho roguish eyes which had been temporarily hidden behind Dotty's yellow curls. "I am going to bo baby's grand mother," said she. Tlio Matador's Last Thrust Tlio nrt o£ the matador is not to rnn up to tlio bull uiul stab him, but to hnve him como to you and fling liiin solf upon tho sword, whilo you direct his movemonts this way and that with tho scarlet capo. Ho will follow a rod capo anywhere, and the cliulas arc busy from tho beginning of the fight to tho end, leading tho bull away from tho fallen picadors or tho imporillod bandcrilleros or tho matador. Even after tho sword is thrust into his ucck up to tho hilt, it takes the bull a long tiino to die. A harrowing sight it is. Tho noble creature—tho only noble creature, as it seems, in tho ring— stands up as long as ho can, vomiting forth torreutß of blood, as all his en emies crowd around him, stinking to it until ho drops trembling against the fender. Then in como the teams ol mules, gsvly decorated with flags ami ribbons, to carry tho bull and the horses around tho ring at a gallop, leaving a bloody track behind. They nro not content with removing tho bodios by tlio nearest possible exit j oh, 110 I Theso gay teams go gallop ing around tho whole arena, each drag ging its bloody coronas, while tho baud plays another quickstep. They nro hardly out of the ring bo fore the drum rolls and the next bull bursts into the arena. So it goos on, until six bulls aro dono for.

With Mr. A. was a largo dog, which at once attacked the tiger, and di verted him from Mr. A. After drlv -1 ing off the dog, tho tiger returned to Mr. A., and commenced worrying him, but was again attacked by the dog. Tho dog was driven oil three or i four times, but the tiger was all the whilo losing strength, and finally • died. Tho dog was uninjured. Now ■ comes the curious part of the story.

He would not allow anyone to como near Mr. A. except his own special servant, and lay under the lied with 1 his nose sticking out, keeping close guard. When Mr. A. was carried to tho doctor, some thirty-live miles awav, the dog went, too, and on the doctor s applying carbolic acid and setting tho 1 bones, which caused the patient to 1 cry out, the dog at oneo seized tho doctor by the leg.

After that the dog lost ; all interest in him, and returned to his master; and if he met Mr. A.by j chance, merely acknowledged his • recognition of him by tho faintest ; wag of his tail. A year afterward, happening to , meet tho doctor, whom he had not , seen in the meantime, he at once I Dew at him and sei.ed him by the I trousers. For the Superstitious. Are you superstitions?
