SUMMER TN MY HEART.
Above, the nky is palo and drear;
below tho ground is white with frost,
No merry voioo of bird I hear;
The liabbling brook in ice is lost.
Naturo is resting from her work,
And when she sleeps she little heeds
Whether the akioi%e bright or murk,
Or what her waking children needs.
It is the time we winter call;
Of *11 the acaaons most forlorn,
Beauty arrays her in a pall,
Forgets the woods that most adorn.
But when I fondly think of you
The dreary curtain drops apart,
A charming landscape then I view,
For thon 'tia summer in my heart.

A DREAD DISEASE.
[From the Now York Herald.]
Pneumonia pays attention specifically
to the lnnga. The Inngs together arc
the essential parts of nil apparatus for
effooting certain ohnngca in tho condi
tion of tho blood. Ah n olicmist pnsseR
a fluid through Homo given medium to
free it from one element or charge it
with another, bo the Ido id must he con
stantly put in contact with tho nir, in
order that it may free itself from carbonic
neid and acquire oxygen, and the lungs
are the nppnrntiiH in which tho blood is
thus brought into rclntion with the nir.
They constitute an apparatus of in-
dencribnble delicacy. In its counties*
myriads of mioroscopio »ncH or nir colls,
in tho infinite intricacy of tho capillary
blood vessels by which tho bliss] is
brought in blue nnd carried out red, and
in its system of vasomotor nerves, more
readily to bo comprehended logicnlly
than to bo observed even mioroscoploally,
thoro is a deliency and aoourncy et
structure in tho various parts of this
machinery by comparison with which
tho most highly jierfcotad pieces of
motnllio machinery are ns so many cart-
wheols compared with tho wheels of tho
daintiest watches. Through this ex-
tremoly delicate apparatus all tho blood
in a human body is passed about once
every flvo minutes, more or less, for tho
wholo of a man's life; that is to sny,
under tho influence of tho pumping force
which determines the circulation, the
wholo current of tho blissl iH driven
through this delicate machinery for the
oxygenation of tho fluid nearly throe
hundred times in a day, sa.v for eighty
yenrs in tho case of one who lives till n
good old age. If wo supposo that in tho
caso of a man of sixty years the whole
current of the hlood lias passed through
this apparatus for about sixty million
times, mid remember how absolutely im
possible it would bo to make any pieco
of machinery that would go on for such
a jierioj, ami if wo reflect upon tho many
facts in life that may and constantly do
derange this delicate apparatus—facts oi
mere temperature or facts of variation
in tho quality of tho fluid that passes
through—it cannot be difllcnlt to un
derstand why at about thnt time iu life
when use goes on anil repair begins to
fail tho susceptibility to derangement
beyond remedy it is very grent. llut in
all tho delicnoy of this structure tlioru is
olio part more delioato than the rest.
This is a set of nerves capable of dilating
or reducing tho calibre of tho blissl
vessels; they are modifiers of tho cur
rent. While they nro in easy and healthy
iqiorntiou all gocH well, but a change in
their condition changes nil else. They
may lio stimulated or depressed or
absolutely overwhelmed, so that their
notion fails altogether, and ns their action
fails tho wholo operation of the ap
paratus goes dosporately wrong. These
nerves are peculiarly sensitive to vary
many influences relating to tho condi
tion of tho blood, nnd more sensitive in
one man than in another, wherefore it
follows thnt changes of temperature in
degrees of cold which would not afloct
them in one person paralyzes them in
another; and when they nro paralyzed
then tho current of the blood through
the lungs is interrupted; tho modifier if
out of office, nnd tho dilated vessels
become gorged with blood and cannot
froo themselves, and this arrested blood
nndorgoos a change of disintegration
and the victim has n “ liopnti/.od ” lung
or lungs.
Now, n liepatizod lung is practically a
solidified lung. If n man has two of
them lie cannot breathe and speedily
dies. If he has only ono ho is still in a
very bad way. But this account of the
genesis and modusfaciendi of pneumonia
may show that it is in effect an ae-
cidont—much ns n broken leg is; for
though tho causes which paralyze the
modifying nerves may bo consecutive to
other diseases, yet ordinarily in acute
pneumonia this causo is atrnosp boric—
the viotim lias exposed himself to weather
too sovero iu itself or comparatively too
severe bocauso of tho diminished resist
ance of tlio system through debility.
Consequently it is in a great many oases
a malady that tho thoughtful mail may
escape.’ Ono may go out on a Marcii
night to como homo with pneumonia,
or stay at home and bo without it,
“Dime Novels.”
Pernicious Btories of tho “dime novel"
class continue to do their mischievous
work, says an cxeliauge. The latest re
corded victim was a Now London boy,
aged fourteen, who shot himself during
a pci-iod of mental aberration caused by
rending dime novels. Parents who hear
of such cases and fear for their own boys
usually wish that somo one would kill
the writers nnd publishers of tho vilo
trash that most boys read when they can
get it ; but such wishes do not mend
matters in the least, for there is no ono
to do the killing. Tho only antidote to
the dime novel is good reading matter
that is not proBy ; there is plenty of it iu
the market, and fathers who do not see
that their boys are well furnished with it
have only themselves to blame if tho
youngsters are compelled to find their
own literature for want of a paternal
supply.
The first thing a city man does wty?n
Days or (lie Clipper Ship.
The fast sailing clipper, Young Amer
ica, which for thirty years has led the
average records of the Pacific coast sail
ing vessels, is now at Portland, Oregon,
and tho local tars recall the exciting
times whon the 00 days’ sail from Ban
Francisco to New York was u matter of
-peculation and gambling. About ten
years ago tlio Young America reached
San Francisco, being ill) days from Liver
pool, and tho fastest time on record, and
a few days later tho British ship Kkco-
eesa arrived with the next best record.
This led to a newspaper controversy in
which tlio relative merits of the ships was
freely cnnvnssod; and, filially, Theodore
H. Allen published a proposition to the
effect thnt, if both ships could leave San
Francisco within twenty-four hours of
each other, he would bet five thousand
dollars on the Young America, which
offer was taken. A furor of lid ling arose
which was never eijnaled in the history
of deep-sea navigation. Tho Davy
Crockett was nearly ready for sen at tho
same time, nnd pools were sold on the
throe vessels, the Young America being
the favorite. On the 28th of February
the Esoocesa nnd Young America were
towed out of Ban Francisco within half a
mile of each other. The wind, which
was very light, was from tho west. Tho
British ship Patrician, which went out
just ahead of them, was caught in a calm
and drifted in upon tho Potato Patch
reef, outside Point Bonita, where hIic
went to pieces. Next morning a bark
arrived from Batavia and reported hav
ing met both ships. Bho met the Young
America forty-five miles off tho Farra-
lolies, nnd tlio Escoeesa three hours and
a linlrliehind. This weather Instedsouie
days, and the Yankee ship never lost her
advantage, but increased it to such au
extent that she beat the Eseoeesa five
yads and tlio Davy Crockett eleven, al
though her time on this voyage was one
hundred nnd eight days.
Is Coon QliAilTBlia—Till) police of
Palermo hunted for weeks in tho hillH
and woods around that city for Andr
Costa*, a desperate bandit, for whose cap
ture a reward hail been offered, until ac
cident led to tho discovery that their

rude assaulls of the elements, wns tho

very heart of the city, to which lie was
ill the habit of repairing at nightfall to
pass evenings as pleasant and comforta
ble as those of any citizens.

Risky Marksmanship.
Dr. Frank Powell, of Lacrosse, Wis.,
who has ail extensive practice as surgeon
mid physician, lms likovviso attained
celebrity as nn export marksman with
either rifie or pistol. For 'some unex
plained reason lio lms received tlio sobri
quet of “ White Beaver,"..and by that
sol iriquet lie is familiarly "known through
out tlie northwest. ■ Recently a party of
grangers from Minnesota Bought him
out, and for tliuir edification, and especi
ally that of one of their 1 number, who
fancied ho ‘ ‘ could shoot home, ” tho doc
tor gavo a display.of his prowess. After
having rapidly, At a distance of about
twenty yards, fired six shots from liis
rifle against tlie edgo of n silver quarter
inserted in the target, imbedding it
deeply in the soft pine plank, liis friend
Richardson, says the Lacrosse Sunday
News, placed himself in front of tho tar
get with a stump of a cigar in his
month ; this the doctor shot awny, leav
ing barely nn inch between lt.’s lips.
White Beaver thon laid his riflo aside,
and, producing a calibre 22 pistol, placed
upon the head of his assistant a pint bot
tle cork; a report, and tho cork was
blown to pieces. Then n peanut sholl
wns placed upon R.’s nose ; a shot, and
that, too, lay Hcaitered upon the floor.
Taking a knife blade he fastened it firmly
against tho target. U„.on each side ot
the blade he placed a tiny hell; then
calling his office bey, ho placed between
tlio youth’s fingers his Masonic ring,
previously covered with a pieco of white
paper. Between tho hoy and the target
Bichardson stood with a cigar in liis
mouth. Stepping hack fully 50 feet,
White Beaver raised liis rifle, and with nn
“All ready, steady,” to his assistants,
fired; a report, and simultaneously twc.
sharp rings from the hells. The hail was
found to have passed through tlie finger
ring, snuffed tlie ashes from B.’s cigar,
nnd splitting upon the knife blade had
glanced and rung both hells.
A Secret.
Tho following anecdote of Alexnnder
II. Stephens is related in the Louisville
('mirier-Journal: The wife of a Western
Congressman was one day sitting by Mr.
Stephens’s bedside, when he was so very
ill in the winter of 1877, and he spoke
quite fix ely to her of his mother and his
early life,
“Why did you never marry?” she
asked.
“That’s my secret,” he replied eva
sively.
“But we would all like to know it,”
was her response.
“Well,” said he, grimly nnd reluct
antly, “I never saw hnt one woman I
wanted to marry, but she did not want
to marry me. That’s a good reason^"
isn’t it?”
"I hope she lived to regret her mis
take,” remarked the kind heart.
“Y-e-s,” responded Mr. Stephens
slowly, “I think she did, and bo did I,”
