Baby is Dead.
“Baby along is dead!” Three little words
mid pasRed the line; oopied somewhere
soon forgotton. leaned But after all was
quiet again I my hand upon my
head and fell into a deep reverie of all
that those words mean.
Somewhere—a dainty form, still and
cold, unclasped my mother’s arms to¬
night. Eyes eh at yesterday were bright
and blue as skies of June drooped to¬
night beneath white lids that no voice
can ever raise again.
lwo soft hands, whose rose-leaf fingers
wero wont to wander lovingly around
mother’s neck and face, loosely holding
white buds, quietly folded in confined
rest.
Soft lipa yesterday rippling with
laughter, sweet as woodland brook falls,
gay as trill of forest birds; to night Un¬
responsive to kiss or call of love.
A silent home—the patter of baby feet
forever hushed - a cradle bed impressed.
Little shoes half worn—-dainty garments
—shouldei knots of blue to match those
eyes of yesterday folded with aching
heart aw ay.
A tiny mound, snow covered in some
qmet mother’s grave-yard.
A groping touch, in uneasy
slumber, for the fair head that shall
never again rest upon her bosom The
low sob the bitter tear, as broken
dreams awake to sad reality. Tho hope
of future years wrecked, like fair ships
that Tho suddenly go down in sight of land,
laughing watching of other babies, dimpled,
strong, and this oue gone! The
present agony of grief, the future empti¬
ness of heart, all held in those three lit¬
tle words, “Baby is Dead!”
Indeed, it is well that w-e can copy and
soon forget the words so freighted with
woe to those who receive and send them.
And yet it cannot harm us now and

Ancient Monuments.
One of the most deplorable facts con¬
nected with tho East ia tho destruction
of ancient monuments. Marble statues,
columns, capitals of exquisite workman¬
ship, and various other works of art,
such as exist in ruined cities, are being
collected by tlie native and burned into
lime. Air. Wood testifies to this fact at
Ephesus, and Mr. F. W. Percival states
that: “The Temple of Oybele at Sar¬
dis has never been excavated, and the
soil lias accumulated above the pave¬
ment to a depth of at least twenty-five Builicient
feet; and even this is not
to preserve it, for I found when I was
there that a quarry had been dug on the
north side, and that splendid blocks of
marble were being broken up into small
pieces to burn iu the neighboring lime
kilns.” Of tho Temple of Diuna at

Preaching to tho Insane.
A good story is told by a Brattle,bora
clergyman who had been in the habit ol
preaching ol Sunday asylum afternoons to the in¬
mates tho for the insane. The
clergymen this iu that villiage take turns in
work, and one afternoon one of them
preached about the alabaster box of

chapel one of the patients came to him

clergymen had preached on the same

Sunday he noticed the same intent ex¬

the same man gave eager attention, con¬
vincing the clergyman that he was not
far from the kingdom of heaven. In the
sermon the old story had been related
about Hindoo women casting their chil¬
dren iuto the Gauges. The minister
sought an opportunity at the close of

his eager listener. Tlie patient grasped

A GIRL'S FANCY.
UY EDtVARO J. SURtVSE*.
It is a quiet summer afternoon, and
tho valley in the Catskills where we find
ourselves lies in perfect stilluess; the
ikiff that monopolizes the little lake

with the and
groups of workmen that Mr.
foy> Peters’forges Lave have gathered iutheval
we little to do; but will turn
again to look at the fisher-boy, the solo
occupant of the skiff.
Jimmie Gordon is ambitious, and for
the son of an Irish workman—the fore¬
man at one of the shops—is well edu¬
cated and refined. Mr. More, a city
clergymen who spent some of his vaca¬
tions at Brownfields, was struck with his
quick native shrewdness, and, taking an
interest iu him, loaned him books
talked with him, helped him orally while
in the and
respondence; and Jimmie’s own intelli¬
gence and earnest application have done
the rest; so that when we meet him as
Mv. Peters’ fisherman, he not only in¬
tends, with a true American sanguine¬
ness, for the to rise, but is far better equipped
battle he has enlisted in than
many even who start on a good deal
higher plane. Meanwhile lie attends
strictly to business, and to-day, when we
find him on the lake, has finished his
fishing for the day, aud is idly sculling
about, thinking of that better fortune
that, he has resolved shall be his in time,
and wondering in what shape the fates
will bring it to him.
Miss Etta Larton does not in the least
look like a Fate as she comes down the
hill-path with her cousin, George Lar¬
ton, and their mutual friend, Harry El¬
lis; in fact, we are very much inclined to
agreo with George when lie thinks of
bev to-day as nn»vh more of a Grace; but
if she is not a Fate herself she is cer
tainly They a notable instrument of their will.
are all three stopping with a large
party at Montrose, tlie nearest apology
for a town, and this full four miles away.
Miss Larton, however, “goes in” for
walking tains, as the proper thing in the moun¬
and rather against the will of her
eset i rts, has covered the whole four miles
on foot, and is still fresh and ready for
adventures when she enters the little
Brownsftelds valley. Rather dark, of
medium height, and in sturdy good
health, shall be the whole of her per¬
sonal description; and for her “state in
life” it will be enough to say that she is
the only daughter of the richost man in
Cleveland, and so of courso spoiled, but
withal, very fascinating, as Cousin
George can tostify. She ia given to
whims, and just now the fancy that
strikes her is to have a row on the clear
little lake that is so invitingly laid out
below, so that tlie ono duty of her obedi¬
ent companions is to find tho ways and
means; ing that not, altogether an easy task, see¬
all the boats are carefully locked
up, except the one that Jimmie aud his
fish use with not the best effects ns to
cleanliness. Still, as it is the only one,
it must be had, and Jimmie, in response
to Larton’s request, immediately rows up
and takes the party, Miss Etta in the
stern and in full view of the handsome
boatman.
Is there such a thing ns love at first
sight? Surely; and before the trip
around the lake is finished, Etta h com¬
pletely conquered by the blue eyes of
this Irish fisher-lad. On his part he felt
the natural attraction toward a lovely
girl that any man would; but never ex¬
pecting to see her again any more than
other chance visitors who have happened
to row over the lake, he hardly thinks of
her as more to him than a beautiful pic¬
ture. If for a second anything further
had entered his niiml, fie would instantly
have dismissed it as an absurd crying
for tlie moon. But Etta is not used to
giving up her whims so easily. No
sooner had she discovered thai she liked
his looks than she made uo> her mind to
see more of him; and when dimrnio,
after lake, explaining them, all the surroundings ox
tho lands and somehow im¬
presses on them tho conviction that he
is not the sort of person to fee, she takes
her cousin aside, and persuades him
a little against his will to try aud make a
return for his politeness by asking him
to the hop at tho Montrose hotel the
next week.
And now opens the new era in our
hero’s life. He is quite good-looking
enough and “nice” enough not to seem
out of place in a frock-coat; and by
careful use of his own and brother's best
clothes, he is able to appear at the hotel
quite correctly attired for a country hop,
and so far from finding Etta’s iufatua
ation vanished as suddenly as it was
born, she seems worse than before.
Going to meet him as he enters the
room, with an eager, bright smile, she
quickly exclaims;
“Then you haven’t failed us ?”
“Why. no; surely I wouldn’t miss
such a chance as this. ” And then, sud¬
denly reflecting that it would be best to
modify this, be adds, “and of seeing
you.”
A quick flush of pleasure comes to her
face at this first sign of admiration *V>n

taken such a hold on her
‘No, said Jimmie, “I enjoyed my
row too much the other day not to come
to tins hop. Do you know that I have
lived by that lake all mv life, and never
knew how beautiful it was before last
Friday ?
“Then this is really your home? We
were ^ere wondering whether yon belonged
or were only a visitor.”
At this palpable attempt to pump lum
10 !"» 6llmt ** * moment; but think
mg ff best to seem candid, he answered:
Then, smilingly, V“ l T? "Im only a country

though, not too much of an one to thank
yem Little r„„r he yet understands the fuH

Hurrying dance, across the room to claim the
next which is due him, and he
is doubly infuriated at Etta’s quiet re
fusal.
“O George! I am promised very sorry, but I for
got you, and have this to Mr.
Gordon.”
“I am sorry too.” was the angry reply,
“to deprive Mr. Gordon of your society,
%8 tlus will be his last chance of seeing
vou; but I wish particularly to Bpeak to
yon at once.”
A little seared at his manner, she takes
liis arm pettishly, ” and turns away with
him, saying:
“The next shall be yours, then, Mr.
Gordon.”
“Etta,” exclaimed George, “you posi
tivelv must not dance with that fellow
again. I am acting in place of vout
father now, and cannot see you flirting
publicly with a man not a tit associate
entire for you, and^ becoming tho talk of the
room, ’
“ “Very well; I consider ‘this fellow’ a
fit associate for me or for you, and as I
never by people’s was kept from doing what I pleased
in that talking, you won’t frighten
me way. ”
And so he has killed his own hopes,
Rousing all her feminine and individual
perversity, the only result of his protest
is to see her spend the most of the even
ing with Jimmie; to see him broucht uv>
to Mrs. Larton, and capturing her as ef
bine fectually as her daughter handsome with his face, sunny
eyes and sturdy to
hear him invited to Cleveland!
In the midst of it all Jimmie s heart is
beating very fast, and bis head swim
ming a little; but he comes through it
triumphantly, and leaves for home that
night with strange, new hopes of secur
mg and the wished-for vtudth by had an easier
a quicker route than he even
dreamed of before That he is purely
mercenary it would be hardly fair to say;
for most men can be flattered into a
iking, if not into love, and Jimmie flattered. cer

took for more age and experience than
Jimmie had to keep his head from being
turned. Being turned, it is easy to see
why it should fancy it was toe heart, easily
and almost to think itself ill love as
as Etta has been.
And now we will drop the curtain for
a few weeks, to raise it again during the
early fall in Cleveland. In the cab that
is driving up Euclid Avenue we find our
hero, the Brownfields, same boy whom we met on the
lake at still intent on his

Calling early one hot morning in tha
summer of 1859 at the residence of
Stephen A. Douglas, in Washington, I
found sation him with earnestly Northern engaged Senator, in conver¬
a a su2>
porter of the administration of James
Buchanan, who was endeavoring to se¬
cure his vote in favor of a candidate for
an important office, whose nomination
was to be sent to the Senate on that day.
At this time Mr. Douglas, by his re¬
fusal to support the “Lecompton C-on.
Btitution ” for the Government of the
Territory of Kansas, which he consid¬
ered a fraud, and prosperity an insuperable Territory, obstacle
to the future of the
had incurred the enmity of Mr, Bu¬
chanan and his Cabinet advisers. From
them he had, according to his own state¬
ment, experienced annoyances and per¬
secutions which had aroused all the bit¬
terness of his nature.
He listened attentively and, to the appeal direct
of the Senator, proceeded waiving of a
response, received to speak from th e treat
ment he had Buchanan
and his subordinates in office. As he
proceeded he mounted became terribly his eloquent.
The blood tb temples, and
his whole frame quivered with rage.
When Mr. Douglas had ceased speak¬
ing, the disappointed reaching Senator the door rose which to de¬
part. On
ODened upon the hall, he exclaimed,
with a menacing look :
“Sir, it you vote against my candi¬
date, I will vote against every f riend of
yours whose appointment is s*“nt to the
Senate for confirmation!”
Exasperated anew by this remark, Mr.
Douglas literally rushed across the room
with uplifted hand, and, standing lie
fore the speaker, rapidly snapped his
fingers within a few inches of his face,
exclaiming at the same that time for :
“Sir, I care not you or your
threats, and if you thought to intimi¬
date me you had better have stayed
away from my house !”
The Senator, evidently deeming it
useless, or, perhaps, unsafe, but for quickly him to
reply, made no response,
left the house, and Mv. Douglas re¬
sumed his seat.
At this moment the door was thrown
open, and Mrs. Douglas, oue of the
mos t beautiful women that ever graced
Washington society, entered had the room.
All traces of anger vanished from
tlie face of her husband, who greeted
her in tones of gentleness and affection
which betrayed the deep devotion of his

SWIFT DRESSING.
Unn Adrtw*' Are Enabled to Chango
Ttielr Costumes oo Qaiekly.
The lady correspondent of the Cincin¬
nati Enquirer writes from New York
about a visit she paid to the dressing
room of a popular actress: handsome evening
There I saw a
dress spread out on a chair with combina¬ orderly
precision. It was an elaborate
tion of satin and embossed velvet and
lace, made up in one of the newest styles; in
but it had a peculiarity of being open
front, from neck to hem, like a wrapper,
but it was so contrived that the opening
would not lie discernible when the gar¬
ment was worn.
Another odd feature was that all the
bows, jewels, and other ornaments, such
as women ordinarily spend an nour or
so in adjusting, were already fastened on
in the proper places. By the chair was
a pair of satin slippers, and on a stand
was a pair of kid gloves and a fan. On
a block was a blonde wig dressed in the
latest fashion, with a ribbon and a gilt
ornament all in place. The maid glanced
with anxious eyes at all these arrange¬
ments, and seemed afraid that I would
disturb them. I was just realizing that
they were planned to effect a lightning
change of costume, when the actress
herself bounced in. She was warm from
her exertion on the stage, but not a bit
flurried. She did not lose a single mo¬
ment. though she chatted glibly with me
all the while.
First, she picked up the gloves and
began to put them on. At the same
time the maid unhooked her dress from
top to bottom with quick, deft fingers, in
and stripped off the whole garment a
twinkling. The pretty creature stood
before me iu her white clothes, laughing rapid
at my expression of surprise at the and
disrobeinent. She seated herself
extended her feet for the maid to take off
the shoes and stockings. The iatter, be¬
ing stripped down over the feet in a jiffy,
did not disclose the naked flesh, but
elaborately clocked silk hose, so that the
fresh pair "were already on. By the time
the slippers were on, the actress had got
tlie last button of her gloves into its
button-hole. A minute and a half had
elapsed. Both had not only worked with
great rapidity, but without any false
motions or vexations of any sort. Then
the maid took of several puffs and a bow
from her mistress’ head—her hair in the
last act having been simply dressed blonde —
and put on the more elaborate
wig, fastening it in place with hairpins,
and setting a lock here and there into
place. Next the actress stood up, and
the maid swiftly put her into the dress
that had lain on the chair. Every part
of it fell admirably into place, the drap¬
ery across the front hiding tlie junction,
and plentiful hooks and eyes holding all
together. Standing finally before surveyed a full-length herself

room where his mother was, exclaimed:
“Say, ma, ha\ r e vou heard about Mr.

witii “Why, no,” auswered Mrs. Bolivar,
an air of surprise. “What about
him?”
“This morning he got up'early.”
“Yes; goon.”
“Wait till I tell you. He got up early,
and remarked that he felt very well.”
“Go on!” exclaimed Mrs. Bolivar, af¬
ter a short pause.
“Just wait. He said that he felt un¬
usually well. While Mrs. Braley was
getting lot of breakfast he went and shelled a
corn for the pigs. He came back
to the house, still saying that lie felt
well. ”

A Big Rat-Killer.
Uncle Aaron lived near Hartford, and
was a matter-of-fact man. His barn and
out-houses fairly swarmed with rats, and
uncle Aaron was telling a friend from
another town who was visiting at his
house how he was troubled by rats and
how he had seen a hundred at least at a
time. The friend laughingly told him a
hundred was a good many rate, and beg¬
ged to take off a few.
Uncle Aaron replied to the effect that
he was fixing a trap, and if his friend
would wait a few days he would convince
him he was not lying.
“All right,” answered his friend; “it
you will catch anywhere near a hundred,
just let mo know. ”
Uncle Aaron,;too, said: “All right,”
adding: “I'll let you know.”
When his friend started for home the
last thing he said was: “Be sure and
let me know how many rats you catch,
A hundred is a good many. ”
The trap uncle Aaron was at work on
was big a sort of platform almost as large as
n barn door, and the plan was to
weight it with heavy rocks, raise one end
about three feet from the floor, and have
it so rigged that the pull of a string
would spring it and let it fall to the floor,
mailing living it decidedly uncomfortable for
any thing that might happen to be
under it. After arranging it to his mind
he began to bait it. He threw meal till
around and under the trap, and went to
a place conveniently near and watched
things. He did not have to wait long
before he counted at least twenty rats
busily investigating that meal. But they
did not go under the platform. This
while was kept up for several days, and after a
the patient watcher, who spent an
hour or two every day iu seeing them
manoeuvre, had the satisfaction of seeing
several of the rats venture under the
trap. Then he knew his plan would be
a success. He could pull the string
almost any time of day, and catch it
dozen or twenty, but he was “laying
low” for a bigger haul. The upraised
platform was no longer a terror to the
animals. They took the bait from under
it as readily as could be desired. Finally
Uncle Aaron thought the time was ripe
to pull the string. He had not baited it
the night before, so the rodents would
have a keen appetite when he sprinkled
the cheese-crumbs and meal that morn¬
ing. After doing this he took up his
position and waited. First one rat—a
sort of pioneer—came gliding out and
began to partake of the feast. Next a
pair came out; then three or four, then a
dozen. They came from all directions.
Unde Aaron w as actually trembling w ith
excitement. He could hardly keep his hand
from pulling the string. But lie waited
until the space under theplatform seemed
fairly alive pulled. with the creatures; and then
—he Down went the heavy
platform with a crash. A number of the
rate Aaron were felt seen confident scampering oft; but Uncle
lie had nailed some
of ’em. As lie came up lie saw beads
and tails protruding, and lie thought he
would give them all a good square
change to die before lie raised the trap.
Ho waited till night, and then he lifted
il. He counted one hundred and twenty
two dead rate. He put them in a box
and expressed them to his friend, accom¬
panied by a note which read as follows:
“I take this method of letting you
know how that barn-door trap worked.
Count ’em and see for yourself. I’m go¬
ing to bait the trap again to-morrow.
Would you like to have me let yon know¬
how many I catch next time. A hundred
is a good many, but a hundred and
twenty-two rather beats it,— Hartford

The Isle of Man—The Isle for Women.
There are corners of the world from

it enjoys home

metals, minerals, and agricultural pro¬
ducts. Politically it has furnished, in
its limited area, its share of a possible
solution of a great problem. Its Legis¬
lature has widened the suffrage to house
holders of both sexes, under the same
