God help the homeless! u-nnderers on the earth For whom no roof inclines its sheltering eaves; No fireside glows; no voice of love or mirth Calls to the garden flowers, the hillside sheaves. Tis theirs to see the gleam in cottage panes; The happy groups about the hearth at eve; While they must cross the moors through chilling rains. And hide in hut or hedge as twilight wanes. Without the wind for all their woes to grieve. Sad hearts! the wayside and the wilderness Are uear to heaven as any fire lit room! Despairing Hagar angels stoop to bless: God talks with Moses in the desert gloom; And life is but a path to his repose. Whether we walk through meads of joy and love Or in lone wastes where every tempest blows; Some peerless morn we reach our journey's close. And lo! the rapture of the home above! —Edna Dean Proctor THE PUBLIC DEBT. A Very Rapid Decrease Under Decreas ing Circumstance*.

All this 1 did under the advice of eminent physicians. It was while I was in this deplorable condition that the claims made for THE TWO COMMANDERS. The experience of other nations with their public debts leads them to doubt the statements of this country. Most of them have continually increasing instead of decreasing national debts. IIow, then, they ask, can the Uni ted States diminish its debt so rapicllj i The prosperity of the people during all these years has been unabated. In fact, the country has never seen such an era of general prosperity. Ihe two conditions appear to be contradictor}. Are the statements true ? attention. 1 knew nothing of its value to justify my having any confidence in it, but a> everything else had failed I deemed it my duty to try it, so I began its use, and its prompt and radical ef fects were of the nature of a revelation to me. Many people may think the statement scarcely credible, but it is a fact that after only a few days’ use of Kaskine all the leading symptoms in my case were decidedly abated or ceased In one sense they are undoubtedly , . , , irrect, but the public debt has largely I altogether; and m a few weeks from increased since the war.

The contrast between the two comman ders was very striking, and could not fail to attract marked attention, as they sat ten feet apart facing each other. General Grant, then nearly 43 years of age, was 5 feet 8 inches in height, with shoulders slightly stooped. His hair and full bourd were a nut brown, without a trace of gray in them. lie had on a single breasted blouse, made of dark blue flannel, unbuttoned in front, and show ing a waistcoat underneath. He wore an ordinary pair of top boots, with his trousers inside, and was without spurs. The boots and portion of bis clothes were spattered with mud. He had had on a pair of thread gloves, of a dark yellow- color, which he had taken off on entering the room. His felt “sugar loaf” stiff brimmed hat was thrown on the table beside him. He bad no sword, and a pair of shoulder straps was all there was about him to designate his rank. In fact, aside from these, his uniform was that of a private soldier. Lee, on the other hand, was fully six feet in height, and quite erect for one of his age, for he was Grant’s senior by sixteen years. His hair and full lieard were a silver gray and quite thick, ex- •cept that the hair had become a little thin in front. He wore a new uniform of Confederate gray, buttoned up to the throat, and at his side he carried a long sword of exceedingly fine workmanship, tiie liilt studded with jewels. It was said to be the sw-ord which had been pre sented to him by the state of Virginia. His top boots were comparatively new, and seemed to have on them some orna mental stitching of red silk. Like his uniform, the}- were singularly clean and but little travel stained. On the boots •were handsome spurs with large rowels. A felt hat, which in color matched pretty -•closely that of his uniform, and a pair of 'long buckskin gauntlets lay beside him • on the table. We asked Col. Marshal afterward bow it was that both lie and his chief wore such fine toggery and looked so much as if they had just turned out to go to church, while with us our outward garb scarcely rose to the dignity even of the “shabby genteel.” He enlightened us regarding the contrast by explaining that when their headquarters wagons had been pressed so closely by our cavalry a few days before, and it was fouud they would have to destroy all their baggage except the clothes they carried on their backs, each one naturally selected the newest suit he had. and sought to propi tiate the gods of destruction by a sacri fice of his second best.—Gen. Horace Porter in The Century. mulated to the great inventors and dis- ^ coverers whose successful efforts have eased the burdens of labor and made pleasant the pathways of toil. A grateful public should also ac knowledge its indebtedness to those who have promoted health and happi ness. The proprietors of Warner’s safe cure have given to the public a specific for all kidney disorders, and the innumerable train of frightful dis eases that are caused by them. The late public teacher, Dr. Dio Lewis, who seldom prescribed medicines of any sort, gave to this renowned specific his warm commendation, and said if he found himself suffering from any kid ney disorder he should use it. Kidney disorders are the cause of 93 per cent, say the proprietors of that remedy, of all diseases. If you keep the kidneys in health, you have the greatest assur ance of freedom from all disease. Before the discovery of this remedy, bright’s disease was deemed incurable. Now the number of victims of the dread kidney diseases, and all others caused by such diseases, who are by it snatched from death constantly in creases, and as the efficacy of the reme dy becomes more widely known those who have reason to be devoutly thank ful that, this wonderful specific has been made known to the world, multi ply with rapidly increasing ratio.j BEAST!

Though wo of the United States have little to do with the Argentine Republic nowadays, the pioneers of the prosperity of that country were citizens of this. In 1820 William Wheelwright, of Pennsyl vania, was wrecked on the Argentine coast, and made his way to a small town called Quilmar, liatless, coatless, bootless, and starving. He remained in the placo because he had no means to pay his passage elsewhere, and forty years later constructed the first railway in South America, from Quilmar to Buenos Ayres. He built the first rail way in Chili also, and is founder of the Pacific Steam Navigation company, whose vessels run twice a week from Liverpool to Panama, through the Strait of Magellan Both Chili and the Ar gentine Republic have erected monu ments to the memory of Mr. Wheel wright in their public squares.—Will iam Eleroy Curtis in Harper's Magazine.
