OUTGROWN. Nay, you wrong her, my friend, her lore she has - pimply outgrew el One can rend the whole mitrer, translating her heart by the light of one's own. Two mwnt.ni ago when you wooed her yew stood o the self name plane race to face, heart to heart, never dreaming your souls couhl he parted again. She loved you at that time entirely la the ldoou of her life's early May, and it Is not her fault I repeat It—that she does not love you today. Nature never stands still, nor souls either; they either go up or go down, And here has been steadily soaring, but bow has It been with your own ! She has struggled and yearned and aspired, grown purer and wiser each year; The stars are now farther above you In yon lumi nous atmosphere. For she whom you crowned with fresh roses down yonder flve summers ago Has learned that the Unit of our duties to Ood and ourselves Is to grow. Her eyes now are sweeter and calmer, but their vision ht clearer as well; Her voice haa a tenderer cadence, but Is pura as a silver belt Hose you, too, grown purer and wiser as the months and the years have rolled onf Did you meet her this morning rejoicing In the Mtwipbs u f victory won* Nay, Ivsr me—the truth cannot barm you~when today in her presence you stood Was the band that you gave her as white and fw clean as that of her womanhood! Go measure yourself try her standard, look back on the years that have fled; Then ask, if you need, why she tells you that the love or her girlhood is dead. She cannot look down to her lover—her love, like her soul, aspires; He must stand by her side, or above her, who would kindle its holiest Area —Louise Imogen Quincy in Arkansaw Traveler. A Mouse Walks the Tight Hope. An amusing incident was witnessed on St. Paul, Payette and Charles streets, in which a small mouse figured as a high wire performer, attracting the at tention of a largo number of spectators of both sexes. When the mouse was first soon he was on a telephone pole at St. Paul street and Bank lone, and is sup posed to have oome from one of the telephone conduits, which are infested with mice. From the pole tho little rodent walked deliberately along one of the telephone wires and up St. Paul street to Fayette street. Hero he was seen by two sparrows, who Immediately showed fight, prob ably because they thought the wires tho exclusive property of their tribe ant! resented the intrusion. The spar rows would swoop down os near as they dared, giving vent to their pecul iar, shrill notes of anger, but as the mouse also showed fight they were a little afraid of making too close an ac quaintance. Tho two sparrows were soon joined by others, tuid if their cries had been of any avail would have come off victorious. As it was, tho mouse traveled on up Fayette street to Charles street and finally escaped.— Baltimore American. Artificial Uubies. About three years ago two French chemists succeeded in producing rubies artificially. The crystals obtained, however, were small, and since then the inventors imve been occupied with the problem of increasing the size of the rubies obtained. To this end con siderable changes linvo been made in their methods of operating. Instead of using pure alumina, as formerly, alumina alkalinized by potassium car bonate is employed. This addition of an alkali does not alter the purity of the crystals obtained, while it facili tates their regular formation. In the original experiments tho op eration was completed in twenty-four hours, but the reaction is now extended over several months, with, the result of obtaining much larger crystals. As much ns seven pound weight of rubies is said to lmve been obtained at a single operation. Although the crystals are still relatively small, they are sufficient ly large to mount, which was not the case in the first essays of the inventors. —Sew York Commercial Advertiser. Pompon* Hint True. Language is the dress of thought, and as the noblest mien or most graceful action would lie degraded and ob scured by a garb appropriated to the gross employment of rustiesor mechan ic*, so the most heroic sentiments will lose their efficacy and the most splendid ideas drop their magnificence if they are conveyed by words used commonly upon low and trivial occasions, debased by vulgar -mouths and contaminat ed by inelegant applications. Samuel Johnson. The reckless wrong spelling of names is an illustration of common ignorance. It is safe to say that in almost any com pany of twenty acquaintance! there are not two who can write correctly the names of all present. This is par ticularly true of city life, where one meets many persons daily. It is a com mon thing for men to bo long ac quainted and yet have but imperfect knowledge of oue another's names. A. B. Frost is one of half a dozen American illustrators to whom art lias brought handsome fortunes, "lettered ease” and rural comfort, lie lives on a good sized farm near Madison, N. J., dresses as he \vfll, and dispenses a gen erous hospitality. The practice of the cardinals of Rome of wearing red hats at ceremo nials and processions was introduced by Pope Innocent IV as a symbol to in dicate the readiness of the cardinals to spill their blood for Jesus Christ Dr. Elliott Cowes, the theosophist and scientist, is a fine looking man of 45, tali and broad shouldered. He is an authority on entomology, and was for many years a surgeon in the United States army. . A Hafti Mode of Tranxlt. There are few instruments or pieces of apparatus more delicate aud fragile than many of the costly and intricate productions of mechanical skill in gen eral use today by electrical companies for the purposes of refined electrical measurement, and it can easily be un derstood that the difficulty of stripping these expensive and easily deranged instruments from place to place with out risk of damage from careless hand ling In transit is a perplexing question both to manufacturers and users. A famous English electrician says that lie early adopted a plan which proved so successful that he lias adhered to it ever since. Finding that careful packing and conspicuous labels stating the contents to be “glass, with great care’’ were not always sufficient to prevent breakage and damage to delicate parts, he hit on tiie idea of sending out all his instru ments in beautifully polished mahog any cases with brass handles and mountings. The exquisite appearance of the eases appealed successfully even to the callous natures of porters and dock bands; they positively had not the heart to scratch the immaculate polish by rough handling, and the free dom of the instruments from damage amply repaid the extra cost of the lux urious cases.—New York Commercial Advertiser. A a to Bice. One of tho most nutritious and at the same time palatable dishes placed on the table is rice. It should be more fre quently and generously used than it is. In appearance rice much resembles wheat in Its early growth. The head more nearly resembles oats, but the kernel resembles barley, and is more closely packed in the head than oats. It stools quickly, having SO to 100 straws from one seed and 100 to 400 seed in a head. It is the only small cereal plant that yields tho hundred fold of Scripture measure. With good cultivation and earn rice yields Ifi barrels (00 bushels) per acre. This brings an average of $3 per barrel —s4s per acre. The cost of growing, harvesting and marketing will generally reach $1 per barrel—say §ls per acre— unless you have to pump water by steam. Most of the rice is ruined by natural irrigation, rain water flowing from Higher lands and held by levees. There are over 1,000,000 acres of prairie land in southwestern Louisiana capable of producing rice, and enough can be raised here to support ail North Amor ica. -Exchange. Legal Advertisements.
