If the wind is the breath of the dying,
As ancient legends say,
What rebel soul, defying,
Sweeps down the storms to-day V
What fruitless, mad regretting
Uttered that lingering wail?
What life of storm and tempest
Is spilled npon the gale?
If the wind is the breath of the dying,
Across the sea of light,
What saintly soul, replying,
Goes out to God to-night?
Whom does this moonlit zephyr
Uplift on its white breast?
What spirit, pure and patient.
In rapture sinks to rest?

“Yes—uo—oh, I don’t know
Dan, dear!” said Aunft, with lan
guor. “Just-as you please. Don’t
you think it’s too warm?”
“A drive might cool me off,
said Dan Morris; “but I’m not par
ticular It is sleepy weather.’.’
He yawned. Then there was an
irresolute and indifferent pause.
“I actually believe I’d prefer
taking a nap,” Annie confessed,
playing with the fringed end of her
red silk sash.
Her afternoon gown was charm
ing, and so was she, with her gray
eyes and bine-black hair.
“Which means that I’m to go,”
said Dan without resentment. “I’ll
liave a game or two of billiards be

aboutgoing to the boulevard concert
to-night? ; I thought, if you didn’t,
I’d run up to Lint Hacldou’s; he’s

“Go, of course, dear,’! said Auuie;
“ami if I care to go to' the boule

“By-by, dea>!” said Dan..
Annie’s Aunt Ernestine sat mo

good-looking, well-dressed, attrac
tive young fellow had betaken Lira-
self serenely up the street.
“Annie,?” slie demanded, agi
tatedly fanning herself, “if you
and Daniel Morris do not love each
other, why are yon engaged?”
“You dear old goose,” Anuie
cried sweetly. “Love each other?
Of course! But do you expect us,
this awfully hot weather, to be ex
erting ourselves, and rushing and
fussing—”
“Yon will not exert yourselves to
speak to each other soon,” said
Aunt Ernestine, sternly. “You arc
getting worse and worse. In my
day, betrothed lovers were not
above showing some affection. I
believe you and Dan are utterly in
different to one another. I—”
“Dear Aunt Ernestine,” Anuie
protested, showing pretty teeth as
she laughed, “you do not under
stand. Of course we’re fond of
each other. But do you know bow
long we’ve been engaged? Six
whole mouths; papa will have it a
long engagement, you know. And
we’re both sensible. I don’t ex

know, as he did at first, and he
doesn’t expect me to. We’re mat

don’t see each other every- day, we
don’t mind; we are reasonable.
And we Dever get jealous. Ob, it’s
so much better, Annt/Ernestine,
our way is! If all yonng engaged

Annie, smiling with placid superi

VILLAGE FARMING.
Atlanta Constitution.
The boulevard was the grand
promenade of the' town, it over
looked the bay; it had a broad as -
phalt extent, and trees and shrubs
and refreshment booths, and an or
chestra played there two evenings
a week.
It was popular always, and on
this special Tuesday evening it
was crowded.
The latest popular air was being
delightfully rendered when Annie
strolled down the long walk on.her
father’s armY .
“Everybody’s here,” she said
eujoyingly. '“I almost wish that
Dan— Why, is that Dan, papa?’’
She stared at the spot where a
good-looking youDg njan stood
talking with a pretty girl.
“If is. Who'is that he’s talking
to, papa? Papa!”
She was uuxiously nudging him,
but her father was shaking hands
with a young man in a pale suit
and eye-glasses.
“Mr. Knight, my dear,” he said:
“my daughter. Mr. Knight is on
from Bostou for a time;” he ex
plained further. “I met him there!
I may have spoken of it.” • c-

“Too fresh,” ^ftd Annie. “I’m

able. “Pray look at that red lace
hat, Mr. Knight.”
“I see it.”
Mr . Knight smiled a little.
“Dreadful, isn’t it?” she demands
ed.
Mr. Kuight’s glasses somewhat
disguised his expression, but at
that moment it was peculiar.
A little loud, you think?” he
assented.
“Awfully!” said A Q ui e gratified.
Dan and the red hat were stroll
ing now. ‘
Do you—do you know her?”
Well, yes,” Mr. Knight re
sponded, indifferently, “a little,
She’s a Miss Murphy.”
Anuie did not pause to consider
how the young Bostonian happen,
ed to know a young lady whom even
she did not know.
I suppose she’d be called pret
ty?” she observed. “But do yon
know I don’t like that—that obvi
ous style of prettiness. Do yon?
Such awfully light hair and pink
heeks, and—”
“I know it,” said Mr. Knight, in
prompt agreement, and smilingly.
See isn’t tall euougb, either,”
Anuie declared, her pretty nose
high.
“That’s sure.”
Mr. Knight was stroking his
mustache.
And a girl of that style ought
co know enough to dress quietly,”
said Annie with sharpness.
“I’m with you.”
Mr. Knight seemed to find; real
pleasure in the conversation, he
looked delighted.
“Do you know the young man
she is with,” he ventured.’
Yes, I do,” Annie’s lovely eyes
looked rather stormy. “Mr. Mor
is.”
“They’re going to have some ice
cream, I see. Let ns have some;
or something warmer, if you’re
cool?”
“Thank you, uo!”
There was no use; if she looked
away from Dan and that horrid lit
tle Murphy girl, she looked back
the next instant. She gave it up,
and looked at them helplessly, fix
edly.
“I don’t care; of course I don’t!”
she murmured, inwardly. “Only
Dan never cared for another girl-—”
“It’s soda water they’re having,”
Mr. Knight remarked. “Migs Mur

“I haven’t the least interest in

else. “How absurd she looks, re

Row ill-bred of her to be talk
ing ill-natnredly of an acquaint
ance of the Bostonian’s—How
dreadful! When had she ever done
such a thing? What had come
over her? She was seriously and
honestly puzzled.
“I suppose you think—I don’t
know—I r haven’t meant to' be
rude,” she tried to say, but her
voice broke a little.
She was strangely miserable.
She had never felt like this Before.
Were Dan and Miss Murphy com

Did she want them to, or didn’t
she? Oh, dear, she didn’t kqow!

Educational facilities and social
opportunities are the things most
lackiug in country life, and both
are within easy reach of a village
of 500 people. Every such village
ha3 its schools,churches and stores,
and may as well have daily mail
and telephone connection with the
nearest city. Mr. Bookwalter,a pub
lie-spirited, millionaire of Spring-
field, O., has turned his attention
to the possibilities of village farm
ing, and proposes to demonstrate
them by actual experiment. His
plan is a modification of the com
munal system of European coun
tries, and has manifest advantages.
The peasants • of Alsace-Loraine
locatf their villages on the high
way, and there the -farmers of a
large district have their cottages
clustered together. The tract is
divided, into long strips running
oat from the village, aud each far
mer takes a strip and cultivates it.
Each one, by that plan, must go to
the farther end of the tract.
Mr. Bookwalter’s plan is lo take
a tract of land five miles square
and divide it into farms of 160
acres each, or four on every square
mile. There will be 100 farms in
the tract, and TOO farmers with
their farmers will settle in a vil
lage in the center of the land. If
the corporation line has a radius
of half a mile it will be only two
miles from the village to the far
thest farm, and less than that to
most of them. The average dis
tance of the farms will be little
over a mile, from the village. The
farmers will go out early iu the
morning and return at night to
their homes, where they will be in
a town of 500 people, with all the
advantages that such a location
implies. The blacksmith shop,
the stores, the butchers, bakers,
the postoffice, the library, the
political disaster that may engulf
the democratic ptrty in the mael
strom of defeat in the coming cam
paign. The watchmen in the po
litical lookouts iind the' pilot, with
his aids, at the helm of Oar demo
cratic ship should keep a constant
eye on such reefs.
The democrats of-this republic
should not, at any time, and espe- i
to the cupidity of man rather than
to his patriotism.
The politicians would have the
farmers, the lesser merchants and
the small manufacturers believe
that by voting this or tfiat ticket
their material wealth may be in
creased without the exertion of
greater efforts on their part.

Country people who live on iso

meat in convenient quantity. It is
not practicable to kill a beef for

to town to sell, and must get from
the town butcher the beef they con
sume. In the village system they
would always have fresh meat on
short notice, and would alsc* have
ready sale for their cattle and farm
produce. The opportunity for sell
ing it would stimulate fhe poultry
and dairy industries, and many
farm products that_ are neglected

favoritism for any particular man
or particular men to lead them up
on the breakers of discord.
Now, when there is one univer
sal cry throughout- the circles of
democracy for general political ref
ormation, and especially for refor
mation on lines-that pertain to the
interests, rights and liberties of
the people, there should be as per-,
feet harmony of effort and unison
of sympathy ns possible in the par
ty.
Individual democrats, or demo
cratic localities, if this term be al
lowed, may differ in their opinions
concerning the details by which
the reforms needed should be
brought about, hut among all-dem
ocrats there ought to be,and should
be, unison of effort and concensus
of opinion touching all great na
tional questions involving the
rights and liberties of the people.
As a party, advocating what is
right, just and equitable,we should
stand as a solid wall, an unbroken
phalanx, against every encroach
ment upon the constitntional rights
and prerogatives of the people.
Let there be no scattering in the
battle, no .straggling from the
ranks, but as a party enter the
campaign as one, with a fixed pur
pose to resist wrong, and to do no
ble, harmonious battle - for the
right, aud for inculcating in the
administration of government those
political principles upon which.the
perpetuity of this government and
the liberties of our people rest.
The democratic party has carried
the government safely through
storms in the past, and she did it
by unity of effort, and not by eu-
tangling alliances with her ene
mies or other factions.
The principles of democracy are
as true to-day as when they were
born, aud if, as wayward democrat
ic children, we have wandered
away from thpm, now is the oppor
tune time to come hack to our fa
ther’s political house. We, the
people, are the government; we,the
peopla rule, are the bed-rock prin
ciples of true democracy, and to
maintain these principles, as dem
ocrats we must pull together, work
together, think together, and at the
ballot box act together on great
national issues in which are couch
ed the very life-blood of our re
public.
To indnlge, among ourselves as
a party, in acrimonious feuds, to
fly off in tangents from the demo
cratic circle, to divide into fac
tion's, is but to invite defeat, to
court political death. Therefore,
all democrats should work togeth

the democracy should be one in
