Embossed in Gold.
To buy and reproduce famous paint
ings involves an expenditure that
could hardly be bourne unless, as in
the case of The Youth’s Companion,
the enterprise is sustained by the ap
proval of more than five hundred thou
sand subscribers. The Youth’s Com
panion souvenir calendar for 1898, a
series of charming' figure-pieces, faith
fully copied in colors and embossed in
gold, is recognized as one of the richest
and most costly examples of this form
of art. Yet every new subscriber re
ceives it without additional charge.
Moreover, the paper is sent free to new
subscribers every week from the time it
is received until January, 1898, and
then a full year to January, 1899.
The popular price of The Companion,
$1-75 a year, and -the character of its
contents, make it a paper for every
household: Exceptional attractions
are promised for the fifty-two numbers
to be issued during 1897. The Right
Hon. W. E. Gladstone, the Hon. Thos.
B'Reed, Rudyard Kipling, Lillian Nor-
dica, John Burroughs, W. D. Howells,
and May O’Reil are prominent in the
long list*of eminent contributors named
in The Companion’s annouhcement.

Somber and Terrible Was the Scene at
the Moment of Totality.
Mrs. Mabel Loomis Todd, writing in
The Atlantic of an eclipse seen in Ja
pan, says: “Just before totality, to oc
cur at 2 minutes after 8 o’clock, I went
oyer to the little lighthouse/ taking
up /my appointed station on the sum
mit, an ideal vantage ground for a spec
tacle beyond anything else I ever wit
nessed. Grayer and grayer grew the
day, narrower and narrower the cres
cent of shining sunlight. The sea faded
to leaden nothingness. Armies of crows,
Which had pretended entire indiffer
ence, fighting and flapping as usual on
gables and flagpoles with, unabated fer
vor, finally succumbed, and flew off
with heavy haste to the pine forest bn
the mountain side The French man-of-
war disappeared in the gloom, the
junks blended in colorlessness, but
grass and verdure suddenly turned
strangely, vividly yellow green.
' “It was a moment of appalling sus
pense. Something Was being waited for.
The very air was portentous. The flocks
of circling sea gulls disappeared with
strange .cries. One white butterfly flute
tered by vaguely.
“Then an instantaneous darkness
leaped upon Hie world. Unearthly night
enveloped all things. With an inde
scribable outflashing at the same\sec-
ond, the corona burst forth m Wonder
ful radiance But dimly seen- through
thinly drifting cloud, it was neverthe
less beautiful, a celestial flame beyond
description. Simultaneously the whole
northwestern sky was instantly flooded
with a lurid and startlingly brilliant
orange, across which floated clouds
slightly darker, like flecks of liquid
flame, while the west and southwest
gleamed in shining lemon yellow. It
was not like a Sunset; it was too som
ber and terrible. ”
