The damea of France are fond rind free, And Flemish llpi are willing. And soft the maid of Italy, And Spanish eyes nro thrilling; Still, though I bask bcuenth their smile, Their charms fall to bind me, And my heart flies bsclc to Erin's Isle, To the girl I left behind me. For she's as fair as Shannon's side. And purer than Its water, But she refused to be my bride Though many a year I sought her; Yet, since to France I sailed away, Her letters oft remind me Tlint I promised never to gainsay The girl I left behind me. Bho says: "My own dear lore, com Home, My friends aro rich and many, Or else abroad with you I'll roam A soldier stout as any; If you'll not come, nor let me go, I'll think you hare resigned me." My heart nigh broke when I answered No! To the girl I left behind me. For never shall my true love brave A life of war and tolling; And never as a skulklag slave I'll tread my native soli on; But, were It free, or to be freed, The battle's close would And m To Ireland bound no message need From the girl I left behind me. Tnotnas Osborne Davis. Opportunity. Master of .humsn destinies am I. Fame, lore, and fortune on my footsteps wait, Cities ami field I walk; I penetrate Deserts and seus remote, and, passing by Hovel, and mart, and palace, soon or lata I knock unbidden once at every gntet If sleeping, wnkc If feasting, rise before I turn nwny. It Is the hour of fate. And they who follow me reach every state Mortals desire, and conquer every foe Hare (loath; but thoso who doubt or hes itate, Condemned to failure, penury, and woe, Seek me In vain and uselessly Implore, I answer not, nnd I return no more. John J. Ingalls. WOMEN IN SLEEPING) CAtm They Do Not Take to These Convent- encee of Travel with Oood Grace. "When a woman passes ber first night In n sleeping enr sbo experiences n timidity that Is most disagreeable," retnnrked a member of tbo gentler sex who travels considerably, "Hor first Impulse Is to remain up tho entire night, but nn Intoness approaches she becomes bo fatigued nnd bor eyes grow so henry that sho decides to rotlro. Mho goes to her berth and, after draw rng tho curtains cnrcfully, starts to re movo her clothing. Fearing that some of tbo other passengers may bo able to penetrate with their inqulsltlro eyes both tho dim Illumination of tbo car and also the curtains, she becomes nervous with alarm. "Thoughts of train robbers llkowlse flit through her mind, and she hesi tates again and ngaln about turning In. Naturo at last conquers and she removes n few more of her wraps, but still rofralns from undressing nnd climbs beneath tho blanket Then conios the terrifying thought that Bomeono might by mlstako enter ber sliolf, nnd really hor mind Is thrown Into a state bordering upon hysterics. At last she quiets down nnd gradually falls Into a troubled dozo. Glad tho night Is over, alio Is awake nt the first Htri'itk of dawn und hurriedly replaces n rew garments she mustered up enough courngo to remove. "Then sho seeks tho toilet depart ment and Awaits her turn nt tho wnsh bowl. After fooling soino tlmo with tho oddly arranged faucet she nsks for Instructions nnd proceeds with her primping. Sho always finds sbo has lost her comb or brush and usually forgets and leaves bor engngotnent ting lying upon the sink. The onp Is not tho bind she Is accustomed to, nnd Iwtwcen all theso dreadful things and the horrid lurching of tho train she Is certainly relloved when dcstlua. tlon Is reached. After n few such ex periences, however, she becomes ac customed to travel and rather likes It." Pittsburg Dispatch. riRST MATCHES. The llrst sulphur matches, now up ward of a century old, appear very awkward according to our modern Ideas of convenience They were known as "spunks" and varied In length from Are to seven inches. These were generally packed In bundles of a dosen, tied tOKether with bits of straw. Tbo matches Illustrated herewith were mado In 1830, and are preserved In York Museum, England. They were even less satisfactory than they ap pear slnco tho sulphur refused to strike tire. Ills Experience. "Your Southern girls," said the Northerner, "aro so funny. Nearly all of them say Yes, ludeedy.' " "Not all of taem," replied tht South ern youth, dismally; "soma of them aay 'no, Indeed.' " Philadelphia Press.
