The Brown, Blue and Gray.
The watchers were weary, and train-time was
nijjh,
There was protest and pleading, and tearful
good-bye;
We laid ihe three gently upon the white oed,
And Undtrly pillowed each sorrowful head.
The lips were all silent, and soft were the sighs;
Tun lashes were hiding the beautiful eyes.
On the right lay the dark waves, that rippled
with geld, a
On the left flowed the silver that never was
told,
And the wing of the raven between.
ihe brown eyes said, dosing: “I hope you U
1e late;"
The blue eves yet trembled, “How long can
you wait?”
The gray, dark -with pleading, were dosing in
prayer;
The hush of His angel was stilling the air.
The brown hands lay crossed and pressed in
their place;
The while hands lay lost in the fold of the
iact;
la velvet nnd dimples the hand that was
stirred;
The breath of the rleeptrs was all that I heard,
And the shriek of the incoming train.
I twice kissed the proud lips; the rnhy lips
twice;
The lips that were pouting, I turned to them
thrice,
7 hen hurried forth blind in the pitiless rain
And into the night on the outgoing train—
Bni I think while I tent over tresses and hands
All my heart-strings were caught by the mo
tionless hands,
For whenever I wait and wherever I roam
They are driving me on, they are drawing me
homo.
While I dream of the brown, bine and gray.

THE MORTGAGED FARM,
“Bix o’clock!” said Marion Hilyard,
looking np suddenly as the tall, old
fashion clock in the corner rang out its
shrill announcement; “six o'clock, and
oh! mother, here is Jenny Lane,
ounctual to the very moment. Now we
shall have good news from Jack, I
hope.”
Bbo ran out to the gate, flushed nnd
eager 1,0 receive the letter from the
country carrier; and returning, seated
herself on a low stool at her mother’s
feet, nnd broke the envelope.
()n the first glance at its contents a
shade of disappointment dimmed her
bright face.
Instead of reading the note aloud she
glanced hurriedly over the brief lines,
and then silently, with a quivering lip,
placed it in' her mother’s hand and
turned yaside to a window.
This is what Mr. Hilyard read ;
"Dear Madam —l saw your son a
few dityn since, when, to my surprise,
lie expressed himself reluctant to apply
his money to the redeeming of the mort
gage, mying that be required it for a
speculation which promises to be more
profitable to him than the holding of
the furm. 1 have, therefore, been com
pelled to dispose of the mortgage to a
gentleman of my acquaintance, who
purposes to take immediate possession;
and I considerit my duty to inform you
thereof, in order that you mny lose no
time in making arrangements for a re
moval. Very wespect fully,
“Abner Habbis.”
Mrs. Hilyard returned the letter to
its envelope with a trembling hand and
a daz, and, bewildered look, as though un
ablo to realize the blow which had so
suddenly fallen upon them.
Her eyes met Marion’s, and the girl
tli rew herself upon her knees by her
mother’s side and burst into a passion
of tears.
‘‘Oli. mother, mother! what shall we
do? What will become of us?”
‘‘ The Lord will provide," said Mrs.
Hilyard, raising her overflowing eyes to
the motto on the wall, embroidered by
Marion’s own ini ml. ‘‘Where is your
faith, my child, that it should fail you
in this the very hour of need ?”
“ Mother, it is not so much the loss of
our homo nor the poverty and trial in
store which grieves me, but that Jaek
your own son, my own brother -should
have so changed. Oh, mother, I know
that, our Father in Heaven will not de
sert us, but to whom on earth can wo
turn when even Jack can become world
ly and heartless ?”
At this moment a little blue-eyed girl
burst, into the room with:
‘‘Mamma—Marion! here is Miss
’M<lia Anderson at the gate, in her
buggy. She says will you step out a
minute, for she w ants to tell you about
old Mr. Millard being sunstruck; and
she daren’t leave her horso without
somebody to hold him.”
Marion was in no condition t > listen
to Miss ’Media—the greatest gossip in
the neighborhood; so Mrs. Hilyard,
drying her eves, was in civility compel
h-d to see the informal visitor. Marion,
her head resting upon the window-sill
behind the screen of clinging roses,
could have heard every word spoken;
but, absorbed in her grief, she paid no
attention until the name of Wat Hinton
struck upon her ear.
“ It's trno, for curtail}; for Maria bail
it from his own sister, Aggie H'nton.
Hays Maria, in her wild way, •If he
comes back with all that money ’ —yon
know liis Uncle Samnel left him most of
his property last year—says Maria, ‘if
he comes back rich, I mean to set my
cap for him.’ On which Aggie answers,
‘Oh, you needn't; for he’s to be mar
ried before long, and to a real nice,
pretty girl.’ Of course, Maria wanted
to know all about it; but Aggie
only laughed in her, mysterious way,
until Marm says, * I believe yon are jok
giu ?’ when Aggie replies, ‘lf Walter
isn’t married before uHnter I’ll make
you a present of my new earrings which
he has sent me.’ So yon see it’s certain
sure; and no doubt he'll bring his
bride to visit his family, and then, tell
Mariou, we may look ont for a grand
party. When the Hintons undertake
to do things, they always do it hand
somely.”
Marion stayed to hear no more. Glid
ing ont of a side door, she crossed the
garden, passing little Myra, who was
fondliug a snow-white calf, her great
pet aud treasure, aud who called out to
her to “see how fast Snowball was
growing. ”
Poor lit tie sister ! It would be as hard
upon her as upon her nyitht r aud her
self to leave the dear old home, with all
the sceues and objects endeared to them
by the associations of their lives. For
in that ample, pleasant, old-fashioned
farmhouse Mrs. HtlyarJ had been born
aud married, and here her children also
bad first seeu the light.
Two years ago her hnsbaud—who had
been too little practical to make a suc
cessful farmer bad died suddenly,
leaving his affairs in a very embarrassed
state aud the farm burdened with a
very heavy mortgage. Then .Tack, good
son and brother that he was, had thought
it best to go to the city, taking advan
tage of a situation offered him by a dis
tant relative, until the mortgage should
be paid off.
Only two weeks ago he had written
cheerfully that the matter would be
speedily settled to their satisfaction;
and now, just as they were expecting lo
bear that their home was their own again,
came this cruel letter.
As Mariou had said to her mother, not
even the loss of their home went to her
heart with so sharp a pang as did this
evidence of the change in her only
brother.
That .Tack should have grown so world
ly and heartless as to consider his pe
cuniary advantage before the gratifica
tion of his mother's comfort; that he
slionld allow them to be actually turned
out of the dear old house, and go to re
side in the strange city, where they could
never feel at this was the
oitterest pang of all !
So Marion had thought npon .first
reading that letter ; and it was not until
hearing Miss ’Melia’s words to her
mother that she awoke to the conscious
ness that fate could have even a greater
sorrow than this in store for her.
One year ago she had parted from her
accepted lover, Wat Hinton, in mutual
anger on both sides. Wat had become
jealous, and had spoken sharply to her,
and in a maimer which she considered
herself justified in resenting.
Wat was too proud to apologize, and
Marion too proud as well as too delicate
to fnake advances to a reconciliation •
and so they had drifted apart, both
miserable, until Wat had broken the last
link by going off to the West.
She heard of him from time to time
throngh his family, but no word or mes
sage to herself ever came. In all this
while she had looked forward, with a
faint, yearning hope to the possibility
of his some time returning, and of all
being made np between them.
But now this last hope was rudely
stricken to the grmd. Wat was going
to be married. He had forgotten her,
and was lost to her for#er,
“Oh, it is hard—so hard to bear !”
thought Marion, as, with hands uncon
consciously tightly clasped, she passed
slowly under the apple-boughs of the
old orchard: “ Life is bitter. It has
taken all from me; it can have no more
to give. Only my dear, dear mother
and Myra 1 For their sakes I must be
strong and try to bear it all.”
On the verge of the orchard, where
the high bank sloped abruptly to the
meadow, she came to a mass of tangled
honey-sack]**, fashioned into a rustic ar
bor. Wat had made it for her, and here,
in fact, it was that they had last parted.
Down in the meadow ran a little path
way, leading by a short cut to Wat’s
home, a couple of miles away. How
often she had sat here of an evening and
watched for him !
She could scarcely look back upon any
time of her life, or upon any object now
before her eyes, which was nor con
nected with some association of Wat.
There was the walnut tree which he
and Jack used to climb, and there the
clear, laughing brook in which he had
taught her to steer the little boat which
he had made for her, laden with grain,
down to Jack’s famous water-mill, at the
roots of that old willow.
Further up waR the real “grist and
saw mill ” which Jack had always been
so desirous of owning, and which every
body said would be such a good invest
ment for one who could manage it prop
erly.
And then Marion, seated on the bench
: n the rustic arbor, turned and looked
long and yearningly at the old farm
house peeping from the great beeches
across the orchard. No other place on
earth could ever be home to her. And
her mother I Oh, it would be harder
still for her, whose whole life of fifty
years had been spent under that roof.
A sudden sound aroused Marion—a
pharp whistle, as of someone calling a
dog, and she saw throngh tear-dimmed
eyes the figure of a man hurrying along
the pathway in the meadow. She drew
back behind the screen of honeysuckle.
The path led past the arbor, but at
the foot of the steep bank; and she
would not be discovered in her retreat.
So she thought; but a moment or two
after there was a sound of footsteps as
cending the bank, a rustle of the honey
suckle branches, and Marion saw stand
ing in the entrance of the arbor the
fignre of a tall young man, who looked
almost as much startled as herself.
For an instant they gazed at each
other—Marion pale, and the stranger
with a flush rising to his handsome face.
Then h,e said, as he held out his hand,
“ Marion, don’t you know me?”
She gave him her hand in silence. It
was Wat. And suddenly, with the sight
of him came the full bitterness of her
sorrow, in the consciousness that he
was lost to her forever. b..e was noth
ing to him now, and he must be nothing
to her. *
“I am glad to have so unexpectedly
found you here in this dear old spot,”
he said. “I arrived at home only an
hour ago, and could not rest until 1 had
seen you.”
She met bin eyes, bent upon her with
a stifnge earnestness, and her pale cheek
faintly flashed, but she could not have
spoken a word.
“Marion,” he said suddenly, “have
you no welcome for me! Is it possible
that vou cannot forgive me ?”
“ Forgive jou ?”
“ Yes; for all my absurd jealousy and
pride and folly. I have never had a
happy moment since I parted from you,
Marion, and I have conite back at, last to
beg your forgiveness, and to beg, too,
for the love which I forfeited, but which
I cannot live without.”
“Ido not understand you, Wat. I
do uot know why you should speak thus
to me, when—when you are going to be
married.”
“ Who told you that of me, Marion ?”
“It came from Agnes, your own sis
ter. ”
Ho smiled.
“ Aggie knows my wishes. It. was
she who em ournged me to come back.
She thought you would forgive me.
Will, you, Mation, darling ?”
She had averted her face to hide her
tearful eyes, but he now took both her
bauds, nnd as he drew her toward him
a great tide of unspeakable joy rushed
over her, nnd she could only murmur
faintly: “Oh, Wat,!”
When they were both calmer she told
of the heavy grief that had just fallen
upon them. They must leafe their dear
old home, which had passed into the
hands of strangeis Do you call
“Of strangers, Marim
me a stranger ?”
“ You, Wat ?”
He looked surprised iD his turn.
“ Did you not know that it is I who
have purchased the dear old farm ? Did
you not receive Jack’s letter ?”
“ Oh, Walter, it cannot, cannot be
true I”
He took from a pocketbook a paper,
which he opened and placed before her.
It was the mortgage whioh her father
had given to Mr. Abner Harris.
“ And the plaoeis really yours now ?”
she said, looking up radiantly through
sudden tears.
“ Not mine, but ours, darting!”
She was too happy to speak a word in
answer.
“ You see, dear,” Wat said, “Jack
and I talked it over the other day, and
we agreed, as he was so anxious to pur
chase the mill ami lind not means suffi
cient for both, that I should take the
farm, and leave him at liberty to invest in
the mill property. It is the very best
thing for Jack and for his mother, as I
explained to her, if only she had re
ceived his letter. Jack is' not fitted for
a farmer, aud could never have made
much of the farm, as he will certainly do
with the mill. He came up with me, in
order to attend to the matter. Forgive
me that I neglected to inform you, but I
left him behind in the maple field, talk
ing with Aggie."
Mmion started up with a glad cry.
Coming down the opposite declivity of
the meadow was somebody, joyously
waving his hand, and in two minutes
she was sobbing in her brother's arms—
sobbing from a fullness of joy snob as
she had never in her life before known.
They hastened to the house, all three
eager to gladden the heart of the mother.
Jack sprang up the steps and took her
in bis arms, while Wat lifted Myra, who
had run to meet them in frantic delight.
As Marion crossed the threshold, the
old clock rang ont a welcome chime.
“ Seven o’clock !” said the girl softly.
Here heart was full, and she turned
away and went quietly up to her own
room. As she passed the clock, she
looked up at it with an expression almost
of awe.
“ What a lifetime of misery and hap
piness in one hour ! ’ she murmured.
The Eagle as a Military Emblem.
How old the eagle is as a military
emblem—who knows ? The eagles of
the Tenth legion bad landed in Albion
long before the embroidered raven flap
ped its wings on the Northman's stand
ard; the ecgle superseded the lark,
which was the cognizance of the Gallic
levies, and outlived all the birds and
beasts of the early Banian militia, as the
woodpeeker of the Piceni an i the wolf
of the H'.rpini. The division of the em
pire gave the eagle two heads, one for
Borne and one for Byzantium, and when
the empire fell the imperial cognizance
was adopted by Austria and by Bussis,
claiming through the female line the
honors of the Pal® ole gi. Prussia and
Poland had their eagles, and it was only
natural that Napoleon, who considered
himself the successor of Charlemagne
and the Ctesara, should have adopted
the bird of Jove as the emblem of his
empire.

A Day in Havana.
He is wise who adapts himself at once
to the leisurely modes of the natives.
This fervid climate will not be trifled
with. Rise at six. The early morning
is delicious. Take only a enp of coffee
and a hard biscuit, and start out for a
walk to one of the many churches whose
discordant chimes ring oat a noisy wel
come. Then visit the That
upon the Campo del Marto is the most
picturesque. Here all the products of
this fnuty isle hang in masses of rich
confusion.
Close by the battery at the end of the
Prado a 'peculiar and exciting scene
may be witnessed every morning. Here
the surf rolls up with free stride against
the shore. Just where a little bay is
formed in the coral rock several hun
dreds of horses are undergoing an in
spiriting sea bath, or awaiting their
turns in long lines, tied head and tail,
npon the shore. Without this refresh
ing process the horses soon droop under
the ciimate, and even with it they are
all sleepy and sad. Perhaps it is partly
owing to the preposterous Btyle of har
ness in use.
At nine or ten o’clock breakfast is to
be eaten, beginning with fruits. Then
a ride until mid-day. Your guide will
go to sleep while he talks. Somnolence
is the normal condition of everybody in
waiting. Take the hint and indulge in
a siesta until about three. Then, if a
naan, you may smoke the soothing ci
garette until dinner, which must be con
ducted in a leisurely style, cheap red
wines taking a prominent place.
Business hours with merchants cease
by general custom at an early hour.
After four o’clock in the afternoon the
Prado and avenues leading toward the
Cerro present the gay effects we North
men ascribe to festive occasions only.
Our countrywomen may be distin
guished in the throng by their hats.
The Cuban ladies disdain the use of
further ornament for the head than that
afforded by an elaborate coiffure. Their
forms are swathed in light muslins, and
many are seen wearing the lace scarf of
Castile pendent from masses of dark
hair knotted at the back of the head.
The real social life of Havana is best re
vealed, however, after dark. Then a
motley crowd surges through the cano
pied streets toward the cafes, the thea
ters, and the public squares, where
splendid military bands discourse stir
ring and, to us, novel Spanish music.
Iu the brilliantly-lighted cafes one must
wait often for a vacated chair. Stupen
dous and straDge-looking bibular com
pounds are placed before the drinkers.
The leading theater, as all the world
has heard, is the “Tacon,”the audi
torium being not unlike those of many
of our American play-houses. It is very
large, having three galleries. The play
being conducted with rapid movement
upon the occasion of our only visit, our
limited stock of Spanish proved inade
quate lo the duty of criticism.
An odd custom prevails at another
theater of the vaudeville stripe. The
writer was one of a determined quartette
which held its own with a crowd in front
of a wicket for half an hour or more.
Having purchased the requisite tickets,
we were compelled to breast the outflow
of humanity coming down the one nar
row stairway at the end of the flrst act.
Having gained our box, wa wero per
mitted to enjoy a single act of a farce,
in which the leading dramatis personae
were a superactive soldier in very red
and baggy pantaloons and an irate ma
tron of muscular tendencies. This act
lasted twenty minutes. The fate of the
heroine remains shrouded in mystery,
for we shortly discovered that our term
of lease had expired, and our box was
wanted for another party. We should
have gone down to the ticket office and
engaged our places anew for the ensuing
act. —Frank H. Taylor, in Harper's

Snails as Food.
We take the following from a curious
paper Entitled “In a Snailerj,” con
tributed to Scribner by Erueet Inger
soll:
Snails, being great eaters, meet their
just reward in being eaten. The palu
dine forms are sought after by all sorts
of water birds, particularly ducks and
rails ; while the thrushes and other birds
crush the shells of the land snails and
extract their juicy bodies. The wood
land birds, however, will not eat the
naked-bodied sings ; the slime sticks to
their beaks and soils their feathers ; bat
the ducks seem to have no such dainty
prejudices. Some mammals, like the
raccoons and wood-rats, also eat them ;
insects suck their juices, and the car
nivorous slugs prey upon one another.
Lastly, man, the greatest yiemy of the
brute oreation, employs several species
of snails for culinary purposes. By the
Romans they were esteemed a great
delicacy, and portions of plantations
were set apart for the cultivation of the
large, edible Helix pomatia, where they
were fattened by the thousand upon
bran sodden in wine. From Italy this
taste spread throughout the Old World,
and colonies are yet found in Great
Britain where the Roman encampments
were. They are still regarded as a deli
cacy in Italy and France, the favorite
method of preparation being to boil in
milk, with plenteous seasoning. Frank
Buckland says that several of the larger
are excellent food for
hungry people, and recommends them
either boiled in milk, or, raw,
after soaking for an hour in salt and
water. Some of the French restaurants
London have them placed regularly
upon their bills of fare. Thousands are
collected annually and sent to London
asj food for cage-birds. Dr. Edward
Gray stated, a few years ago, that im
mense quantities were shipped alive to
the United States “as delicacies but
I am inclined to think this an exaggera
tion. The same author records that the
glassmen at Newcastle once a year have
a snail feast, collecting the animals in
the fields and hedges on the Sunday be
fore the feast.
A Scribe’s Moralizing*.
A wise business man filleth up his
store with goods, and says to the print
er, whoop’er up loud to my country
men, and straightway he brusheth his
best clothes and polisheth his boots
and says Let them come. He hath in
vited his friends to trade with him and
the ring of silver is heard from the
opening of the store at morn till the
close at night, and he is happy. He
loveth all the world, for he followeth
the scriptural injunction and inoreaseth
the talents given in his charge. He
fondleth his children and the small child
is allowed to pull his whiskers ; yea,
verily, there is no need of unseemly
words in regulating the stovepipes in
his home, for he hath credit with the
tinner.
His less-wise neighbor sitteth him
self on the counter and knocketh his
boot heels together. He complaineth
that his trade is dull. He readeth an
almanac and findeth his symptoms are
dyspeptic. He dreameth of poverty
and wrinkleth his face prematurely.
He yelleth humbug at the printer’s ink,
but trembleth, for he knoweth that ac
cording to the law of the land it adver
tiseth his chattels for his creditors. He
saith harsh words in his hom% and
kicketh about the children and giveth
them no pennies. Therefore let ns get
wisdom from the wise business man,
who advertiseth not extravagantly, but
judiciously, and enlargeth his means
and keepeth his heart in a state of hap
piness and contentment.— Camden Ad
vance.
Genuine Hospitality.
The true hospitality of- the home is
never loudly demonstrative. It never
overwhelms you with its greeting,
though you have not a doubt of its sin
cerity. You are not disturbed by the
creaking of the domestic machinery,
suddenly impelled at unwonted speed
for your accommodation. Quietly it
does its work, that it may put you in
peaceable possession of its results. He
is not the true host, she is not the best
hostess, who is ever going to and fro
with hurried action and flurried man
ner and unnatural zeal, which implies
forced effort to affect a hospitable ap
pearance, bißi rather the one who takes
your coming with quiet dignity and
noiseless painstaking; who never ob
trudes attention, yet is very attentive
all the while; who makes you, in a
word, “at home.”
On Our Most Distant Frontiers,
As in our busiest and most populoi is cities ol
the seaboard and interior, Hostetter s Stomach
Bitters is pre-eminently popular. Wherever
civilization plants its loot on this continent,
thither the great tonic’ soon finds its way.
Nor is this surprising, tor it is the medicine ol
all others best adapted to the wants ol the
Western emigrant, be he miner or agricultur
ist. It is an incomparable remedy tor the
diseases to which he is most subject, and which
are liable to be brought on by a change of cli
mate, hardship, exposure, unaccustomed air
and diet, and miasmastic atmosphere and water.
Among these are disorders of the stomach and
bowels, rheumatic ailments, and malarious
fevers, for all ol which Hostetter’s Bitters is a
certain specific. A course of the Bitters before
departing for the new field of labor, or on ar
riving, will have the effect ol preventing the
evils for which it j#such a signal remedy.
Not Deserving of Pity.
Beggared spendthrifts, to whom money has
no exchange value but pleasure.
Persons who will persist in dying by inches
with dyspepsia and liver diseases, when Dr.
Tierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and Pleas
ant Purgative Pellets are unfailing remedies
lor these maladies.
Parents who spare the rod and ruin the
child. Fast young men and women are gen
erally spoiled children to begin with.
People who suffer from catarrh, when Dr.
Sage’s Catarrh Remedy is a safe, reliable and
well-tested remedy for this loathsome disease.
People who marry tor money, and find too
late that the golden glitter is all moonshine.
Women who suffer death every day of their
lives, when Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription
will effecutally remove those painful weak
n*ses and impart a healthful tone and strength
to the whole system.
People who live beyond their means, and find
that style and pride, like everything else in
this world, unless placed upon a secure iounda
tion, are subject to the law of gravitation.
Invalids who do more toward fostering dis
ease, by living and sleeping in the low unven
tilated rooms of the ordinary house, than the
best medicines can accomplish toward recov
ery, when, at a moderate expense, they can
secure all the hygienic and sanitary advantages
of the Invalids’ Hotel, at Buffalo, N. Y. Every
physician knows how much recovery depends
upon good nursing and the hygenic condi
tions of the sick room. Chronic diseases are
especially subject to these conditions.
Public speakers and singers will find
“Brown’s Bronchial Troches” beneficial in
clearing the voice before speaking or singing,
and relieving the throat after any exertion of
the vocal organs. For Coughs and Colds the
Troches are effectual. Twenty-five cents a box.
At every great world’s exhibition for twelve
years Mason and Hamlin Organs have been
awarded the gold medal or other highest honor.
Last year at the Paris Exposition they were
found worthy of the gold medal.
The professional indorsement which has been
accorded by leading medical men in various
parts of the country to Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam
for the Lungs, is a sufficient guaranty of its
efficacy in eradicating diseases of the breathing
organs. These gentlemen have thoroughly
tested the remedy, and their concurrent testi
mony is to the effect that it is a positive spe
cific for lung, bronchial and throat affections of
every description, and a most reliable preven
tive of that dreaded scourge, consumption.
