SOOTHING SENTIMENT. The stars sent forth their lambent flame, Or burning suns their fiercer light; Ere planets filled the vast inane, And starless vet the brow of night. There stretched thro' countless fields of space, The nebular, unformed and dim; Till condensation, in his place, Arose and calmly said "too thin." And straight the primal atoms rushed Into molecular embrace: And molecules, in masses formed, To fill the worlds with waiting space. A mere hypothesis is this: The facts as yet we don't possess; The nebular hypothesis Gives all who choose the right to guess. From nebular to star there's room For guessing and fancy's play; Imagination has its "boom Just now in, scientific way. But I'm digressing. "Pis a fault Of mine, this tendency to stray; My whim I'll have, I must not halt, At least this side the nebular. That far off gaseous domain. Where Stardust thickly strewn doth lie; And where the potential once had lain, The stellar growths that gem the sky. And when new suns are forming still, As formed the millions now in space: Where planets yet to be will fill Each its appointed, destined place.

From hydrogen may be: perchance A gas still lighter, found of late In Aldebaran (I advance The latest theory) up to date. Theories are common now; and this, The latest, will unchallenged pass. The nebular hyphothesis Will father all that start from gas. Philadelphia Times. HER LITTLE ROMANCE. MARY HIED CROWEI,:.. Evelyn held her pretty little head to one side, like a meditative sparrow, and Vere Carrol thought that if she had not ' been his cousin he would have easily enough fallen in love with her himself, instead of showing her Chamney's photo graph and praising up the original to the very best of his ability. "He looks handsome. Is he really as good looking as his pictnre, Vere?" Evelyn looked up, with a sparkle of admiration in her own beautiful eyes. "He's even randsomer than his photo graph; and, what's more to the point, he's the very best fellow in the world,"' he said, enthusiastically. "Yes," Evelynanswered thoughtfully, and then her cheeks flushed a little and the sparkle in her eyes gave place to gravity. "It is certainly very much more to the point, Vere, and I think Mr. Chamney is a gentleman I would like could like very well, if only She hesitated, dropped her lovely head and then laughed. "What a girl you are, Evie! "What an mi measurable girl! You always have an 'if between you and every promise of pleasure." "I believe I do," she said, in her sweet, spirited way. "I have to, Vere, don't you see? In this case, if only" and she flashed a saucy smile from her violet eyes to him "if only Mr. Sydney Chamney had an income, or a salary, or even wages of his own, and I was not so rich as I unfortunately am." Carroll laughed at the lugubrious lit tle sigh she uttered. "You can easily get rid of your fortune, Evelyn. You might make it over to a society for Christian burial of murdered felines, or you could give it to me, for that matter." "Don't be absurd, vere," she said, half vexedly. "And don't be a goose," he answered, tartly. "I tell you Syd Chamney is the grandest fellow out, and if he hadn't the second coat to his back, he'd deserve the best woman that walks this earth." Evelyn looked seriously at the im perial card Vere had brought her the face and shoulders of a thoroughly hand some, manly man; a face with a perfect mouth, sweet, proud, whose expression the long, drooping moustache did not conceal; with well-opened, intelligent dark eyes, which Evelyn easily imagined capable of smiling unutterable things to a woman's heart. Certainly the very ideal of a grand, kingly fellow, from the fair, broad brow, where the dark hair crept carelessly back, to the very pose he had taken in the artist's chair. Evelyn looked up, suddenly, with a little flash in her eyes that Vere hadn't seen there yet. "Why doesn't he come himself, if he is so anxious to become acquainted with me?" Carroll smiled. "So-ho, my spirited little lady! that's what the matter, is it? Well, he's com ing by-and-by. He's not one of your sort to rush headlong into anything even a lady's favor. He is off for an in definite time on a solitary hunting expedition up in Northern New Jersey, and the stars only know when he'll come back. But when he does good-by for yon, Evelyn, my girl!" And after Mr. Vere Carrol had hastily beaten his retreat Evelyn sat thought fully by the window, studying the face of Sydney Chamney. "I do like his looks very much, and no mistake. I wonder how long it will be before he comes back." A big low-ceilinged room, with an open fire-place, where a huge log lay blazing and sparkling sending great streams of light out into the old-fashioned room. In front of the fire, beside a table cov ered with a crimson cloth, Farmer Orr sat, laboriously reading a weekly paper, and portly, motherly Mrs. Orr was darn ing appalling holes in stout gray socks, from a deep basket by her side. A com fortable cat slept on a rag nearer the fire; a pitcher of cider, a plate of rosy apples, a tin basin of cracked walnuts and hick ory nuts were on a small shelf in the chimney corner; and Elbe King, the pretty little school teacher, who boarded at the Orr farm house, was leaning back in a little, low, rush-bottomed chair, shielding her face from the heat, with a letter just received from home. Outside the wind was blowing great guns, and the night was raw and cold, a wild bitter night for man or beast to be abroad, Elbe was thinking, just as a rapid hurry of footsteps on the ground outside, nd a knock: at the kitchen door, disturbed the serene coziness of the farm-house kitchen. "Bless my heart," Mr. Orr said, cheer ily, as he opened the door, "if 'tain't Mr. Chamney back again! Come right along in! It's a stormy night, and no mistake." "It's I,ure enough, and glad to be under a roof once more. Mrs. Orr, how do you do? Mr. Orr, I'm glad to shake hands with yon again." He stamped the snow off his thick boots before he came into the room to shake hands with host and hostess; and, as he came into the full light of the fire and bright lamplight, Ellie King looked up and saw him of whom, in her month of residence at the Orr "Farm she had heard not a little, and decided with a light sparkle of admiration in her eyes, that it was all true so far as Mr. Cham ney's appearance was concerned. "This is Mr. Chamney, Ellie," Mr. Orr said, with a certain little pride in his oice. "That is Miss King, our school teacher. She boards here, and we're proper glad to have her here, too." Sydney bowed, and laughed at the un conventional introduction, and Elbe smiled and flushed a little only Mr. Chamney did not notice either particu larly. "A country school-teacher," he was saying to himself, sarcastically. -"Heaven nrAiwrvs - me. I know 'em all alike. Well, I'm only going to stay a week, anyhow." But, in just exactly an hour, Mr. Syd ney Chamney had changed his mind, having discovered that Miss Ellie King was pretty, and lady-like, and intelli gent; altogether as different from the species as a humming-bird from a vul ture. "A little beauty a little diamond! he decided, enthusiastically, which was something very rare for him to do. "What possible fate has placed her here, in this out of the way corner of. crea tion?" Weil, the week came to an end with ! wonderful rapidity, and it seemed that Ellie and Sydney had been acquainted a lifetime, instead of only seven days of escorting her to the school-house, and seeing her safely home in the little red sleigh; of going on one or two skating trips, and some brisk, delightful walks to the village Post Office, ard seven evenings of pleasant conversation; intri cate games of chess, or old-fashioned ap ple roasting frolics, or molasses-candy making. "I don't want to go away, at all," he said, one bright, sharp morning, as he drove her to school. "But of course you must," she an swered, gravely. "It seems that woman don't;- at all events, yon don't," he said, lightly. "Isn't it a terrible bore to travel along in the same rut, day after day, week after week, as you do, Miss Elbe ?" A wicked Utile sparkle was in her eyes. "Not half as great a nuisance as to do nothing, as yon do." "But I was brought up not to have anything much to do, you see. It makes a difference." She fixed her pretty, thoughtful eyes on his handsome face. "Oh, you are a rich man, then. I thought, somehow, you were not." He laughed just the merest bit vexed at her sincere frankness. "Rich V No, I am not, unless you call six hundred a year a fortune." "I don't earn half that, yet I call my self rich," Ellie said, quietly. "But perhaps you expect to inherit a fortune, Mr. Chamney ?" "You saucy little catechist! No. I can't say that I do." "Then, Mr. Chamney, yon mean to say that you shall be content to go on, so long as you live, idling away yonr time in whatever amusement pleases you for the moment, and having no good ob ject to accomplish, no healthy discipline of daily employment, just because yon happen to possess enough to feed and clothe you ?' There was a sweet, interested kindli ness in her manner, in her words, that robbed them of all their sting, and Sydney Chamney looked almost rever ently at her. "I never really thought of it. But" and a flush reddened his handsome face "suppose I confess what I do ex pect what I did expect to do, I mean. Will you promise you won't quite de spise me! She smiled gravely. "I can tell you more truthfully when I have heard what you have to say. What is it?" He looked earnestly in her sweet, wo manly face. "I did intend to marry a fortune, Miss Ellie." A painful flush surged over her cheeks involuntarily she shrank further away from him. "I knew it!", he said, impetuously. "Didn't I say yon would despise me? Of course, I knew you would, when yon heard what I had had in my mind, and I deserve to be despised. But don't for get I also said I had given up the idea, for all she was one of the most charm ingly lovely girls imaginable, if all that her friends said of her was true, which I do not doubt. She would be a prize for any man, even without her riches." A silence between them followed, dis turbed only by the soft clangor of the bells on "Brown Bess'" shafts. Then Chamney broke it: "Why don't yon ask me what has changed my mind, Miss. Ellie?" A swift, radiant look in her eyes was instantly hushed. "Because I think you would tell me if you want me to know," she answered, readily. "I do want you to know. It is yon!" "I? I? Why, Mr. Chamney, how when have I impressed yon to " He interrupted her eagerly. -"" "There has not been an hour but that I have been conscious of your influence upon me, Ellie. Your words, yonr daily toil, yonr cheerful acceptance of the duties devolving upon you, have shown me not only what a selfish, worthless fel low I have been, but what a self-reliant, ambitious man I purpose to make of my self. Hitherto, in my absurd stupidity, I actually have regarded myself as des tined to be saved from an honest, manly, work-a-day life u sort of glorified idiot, to whom fortune must somehow come with no effort of my own." He paused, and Ellie looked up, al most wistfully. "I am so glad." "So am I. Iam eager to begin to be of some use somewhere. What shall I do, Ellie? Cut lumber, or cart ice, or turn farm-hand, or what?" Ellie smiled gravely enough, but it was a look that stirred his very soul. "I have heard yon say you had read a little at law. Take that up, throw all your resolution and energy into it, and make a mark, and a fortune! she added, with a little, merry laugh. Chamney reined the demure pony in at the school house gate, and assisted Ellie out, with careful consideration. "It has been snch a delightful drive!" she said. "I'd no idea we were so near it," he answered, with a laugh. "It hasn't seemed more than a five minutes' ride. There was something else I wanted to say." "About the heiress?" Ellie asked de murely, as she unlocked the school-house door. "Oh, the heiress! She may thank her stars she didn't make the mistake of ac cepting me. She'll find plenty of better fellows than me. Won't yon let me come and see if Ben Peters has made you a good fire?" "Just a minute, while you thaw ont. The pony musn't stand, yon know." "The pony may stand," he returned. "He mnst stand, Ellie, until you tell me you will marry me some day when I've made myself worthy of you, my darl ling Ellie. Little girl, yon love me? I have loved you from the very first." All the color forsook her face for a moment. "Oh, Mr. Chamney, you cannot mean this?" "But I do, dear. I need all your love, your encouragement, your sympathy. Won't you give them to me with your self? Do you love me, Ellie?" i And with tears springing to her eyes. Ellie laid her head on his breast. "Oh, Sydney, I cannot help it.'' And then, Mr. Chamney kissed her, and beat a hasty retreat, as a swarm of mittened, and hooded, and scarfed schol ars came trooping in the gate, while El lie Went about her duties with a rare, solemn sweetness in her face, and a new, deep undertone of jubilant 'happiness in her voice. And that evening when Farmer Orr and his wife sat over the fire, calculating the return from the market sales that day, Sydney and Ellie stood in the window of an adjoining room. "I want to tell yon something Syd ney," she said in a half pleading voice, as she nestled to his side, and looked up in his proud, glad face radiant with the light of new hope new purpose. "I want to tell yon I my whole name is Evelyn Ellinor Carroll; and when Vere talked so much about you I wanted to come up here where I knew you were and learn for myself. You are not angry with me?" He looked amazedly at her. "Ellie! You Miss Carroll Vere's cousin! The heiress I was to marry if I could!" She caressed his hand lovingly. "The heiress you are to marry, if you will, Sidney." He folded her closely to him and kissed her sweet face over and over. "I would not let you go if you were twenty times an heiress! But -my darl ing, how strange, how incomprehensible it seems!" "How delicious and lovely it is!" she said. And with her cheek against his. her supple form inside his arm how could he say her nay "And they lived happy ever after." . Response to Prayer. The Camden (Me.) Herald of last week contains the following remarkable story of healing alledged to be due to prayer. Mr. Henry F. Thurston, who vouches for it, is the stepson of the lady who was cured, and is endorsed by the Bev. C. E. Libby as a gentleman of char acter and good standing and a member of the Free Itaptish (Jhuron in Kockport: In the spring of 1880, Mrs. Sylvia Thurston, while returning home from church, stepped into a hole in the road. and was thrown to the ground with such violence that her back was severely in jured and the bones of her ankle and foot were wrenched ont of joint. The injury sustained by the foot was so great that it was almost impossible to replace the bones in any kind of position. For two months she suffered intensely from a fever brought on by the injuries to her back, and it was three months be fore she could sit up. But when she had recovered from the fever she was unable to walk save by the aid of crutches. The broken leg was useless, and never ceased to pain her. It was swollen from the toes to the knee, and was colored a dark purple. The circulation was almost stopped, and the leg and foot became cold. The foot was bent out of position so that only the toes touched the floor. The family physician exhausted his skill upon it, and after several months ceased to doctor it, believing that only a higher power could heal it. instead of medicine, he resorted to prayer. At last Mrs. Thurs ton herself ceased to work with it, and she too commenced to pray for its resto ration. One doctor said it mnst be cut off, or it would mortify, or else wither away and die. If the limb was cut off he desired to purchase it for scientific purposes. About this time she was taken sick with diphtheria, and her step son came from Rockland to take care of her. One day he was telling her of a lame man down East who was healed by the prayers of 1 red McKenney evangelist, from Portland. Both at once determined to offer prayer for the restoration of the impotent limb, and both kept their determination, mat night the foot was so bad that even the drawing of a sheet over it gave her intense pain. In the morning the foot, ankle, and leg were in all things like the other, and as strong. Several hours afterward as her son went to her bedside to give her the medicine the thought flashed upon him: If God healed the foot can He not also cure her of this disease? So he did not give her the medicine, but went and kneeled down at a sofa in front of her bed and there silently prayed: "O Lord! make her every whit whole." Immediately his mother, though looking at him when he knelt, dropped off to sleep and dreamed that the room was full of peoole, all ex claiming: "Yon are made every whit whole." In a short time she awoke, and, in attempting to tell her dream, found that she was indeed every whit whole. That morning she rose up and dressed herself, and on the following Sabbath attended cnurcn. Hjcnby F. Thtjrbton. Who Is She? There is a lady living in a little fonr roomed cottage in the environs of Bos ton whose name is well-known to literary people, writes a correspondent of Lip pincott's. She depends wholly upon her own exertion for the support of her self and children, and does all her own housework, yet her cottage is the focus of the best society of the locality. A gen tleman calling there recently was re ceived at the door by a daughter of the lady, who told him her mother was too busy to be called, but that he could see her in the kitchen if he pleased, and he followed her to that room. The lady greeted him without the slightest em barrassment, though she had on a big apron, and her sleeves were pinned back to her shoulders. She was cutting a pumpkin into strips for pies, and there sat a venerable gentleman gravely paring the strips to the accompaniment cf bril liant conversation. I was asked to guess who this gentleman was, and after sev eral fruitless attempts was told that it 4.1 . . X .1 .. who lire poet XJOHgieUQW. Willie tile pumpkin paring was in process, another distinguished poet called, and he also insisted upon being pressed into the ser vice. It was a dreary day outside, and no one cared to leave the pleasant cot tage, so they all stayed to lunch, one of the pies forming the piece de resistance of the occasion. J SHORT BITS. Earnest endeavor wins success sooner than-anything else." Dr. A. Schmidts believes that the non fermentable part of grape sugar intro duced into wines contains a poison like that in potato-oil. Mrs. Spaggins was boasting of her new honse. The windows, she said, were all stained. "That's too bad, but won't tur pentine or benzine wash it off?" asked the good Mrs. Oldbody. An Olean farmer has had painted and posted up in his poultry house a large sign bearing the inscription: "Eggs 50 cents a dozen." He also keeps lights burning all night to prevent the hens from going to roost. Mr. W. H. Hughes, who is a relative of the founder of the Rugby colony, writes from Bugby that the rumored migration of the colony to Minnesota is all nonsense. The colonists are prepar ing to put in their spring crop. Carlyle believed that a woman's first right and duty was to lead a quiet, married bfe; but, failing in that, "she has every right, before God and man, to take up whatever honest employment she can find open to her in the world." So we are to have a Bonaparte in the army. The Army and Navy Register says; Mr. Edgar Bonaparte, son of Colonel Jerome and Madame Bonaparte, will be appointed to fill one of the two vacancies now existing at West Point. Professor E. D. Sanborn, of Dart mouth College, who is nearly eighty years of age and has been an instrector in the college for thirty-five years, has become so infirm that it is thought he will soon have to cease his professional duties. A board of officers has been named by special orders from headquarters to in vestigate and report on the loss of one mule belonging to the government. It has been stated that the mule died, but Uncle Sam wants to have that matter de cided. The incomes of Bishops of the Church of England are as follows: The Arch bishop of Canterbury, $75,000; the Bish op of York, $50,000; the Bishop of Lon don, $50,000; the Bishop of Durham, $40,000; the Bishop of Winchester, $35, 000; the Bishop of Ely, $27,500; the Bishop of St. Asaph, $26; and the others between $50,000 and $25,000 each. Be sides each Bishop has an official residence free. Washington while Colonel of the Vir ginia Colonial forces, superintended the construction of Fort London at Win chester, Virginia. The fort crumbled away, and now only one of tie bastions, known sa Fort Hill remains. Last Tues day the local military of Winchester marched through the side of the Fort, and passing where one of the gates stood rendered the military honor of a march ing salute to the classic spot. A gang of men who were threshing on the Los Osos, San Luis Obispo county, California, recently, were badly poisoned by the white tar weed. The effect of the dust from this weed upon the human system is similar to that of strychnine. Those effected, and few escape who work among it, are seized with spasms and writhe in agony nntil relieved by medi cines or until the effects wear off. A large "train of evils always follow from Indigestion, and the best care for that disease is to use Rose Pills. One each night will cure the most obstinate case. L Blumauer & Co., agents, Portland.
