Yon need not travel to a star;
The way is easy and not far
An hour's walk, a mile from town.
The herons of the old lagoon
Lead you along the path ; for sign
Are arrowhead blossoms, frail and line.
Beside the water ; then the wood
I Takes you, but only by the blood
Leaping, and by tho sudden start
"Of the overfull and thrilling heart
'You know you see it face to face.
The greenwood bowers a sunny space
For song sparrow tinkling, and below
July's green lap is full of snow,
Is drifted rich with white and pink,
Of "sconcing bet from brink to brink;
Tj haunted air resounds between
With humming birds, obscure and keen,
Like burnt out stars that dart and float
With but a last Are to the throat.
Von saw but common summer flowers?
Heard but a hum that drowsed the hours?
Your blood leaped not nor shook yout
heart?
Ah, well, I know no other chart!
The path is for your feet as far
As that which lessens to a star.

In the Same Boat.
A student at Williamstown college
had been married a short time pre
vious to entering the college and
was led to fear that this fact might
... t
debar him from enjoying some 01
the privileges of the institution. Ac
cordingly, m a great state or per
turbation, he called to see President
HoDkins. After some conversation
the young man at last managed to
stammer, with a crimson face, apro
pos of something entirely irrele
vant, "f I am a married manl"
"Ah," said President Hopkins, smil
ing at him with great benignity,
"so am I. " And there the student's
trouble ended. San Francisco Ar

Sheathing a ship 1b covering the bottom
with a sheath of copper. In all seas, but
particularly in those of the tropics, the
hulls of ships are liable to the attack of
oertaln worms which penetrate the hard
est wood and have been known in the
course of a few months to damage the
hull so as to render the vessel worthless.
Copper sheathing protects the ship not
only against the attacks of those borers,
but also against decay, and is specially
valuable In the case of iron ships, the
metal rapidly oxidizing and becoming
brittle when exposed to the action of the
sea water. St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

SHE SAVED HER COLT,
A PLUCKY MARE'S DEADLY
WITH A PANTHER.
BATTLE
The Cunning, During and Lightning
like Attacks of the Tiger Cat Were
No Match For the Iron Shod Heels
of the Brave Horse.
In the little Aroostook camp' where I
worked the winter I was 10 years old there
arrived an unusual kind of visitor. It
was nothing less than a flne colt. The
mother of this unlooked for visitor was a
bay maro-called Vixon. She had fine In
telligence and great working qualities,
but she Was bad tempered to all but her
master, who thought the wprld of her.
Just now she was in a worse temper than
usual, for she thought her foal ought to
be in moro civilized quarters than those
of tho camp stables.
The mare and her baby, however, were
cared for with a solicitude that should
havo -softened her heart. It was spring
weather, warm In the sun at midday, and
besides the roomy corner of the stable
whioh had been fitted up for my lady's
accommodation the men had built her a
wide pen In the yard, on the south side of
tho stable wall, where she could sun her
offspring at all convenient seasons.
One day, in the early afternoon, when
tho men had gone far off to their chop
ping, the cook and I found ourselves alone
in camp. A week or so before this I had
had the misfortune to sink my ax deep
into my left foot. The cut was a had one,
and sinco the accident I had not been able
to walk a stop.
I was sitting on a log where the cook
had placed me when some slight sound
attracted my attention. Glancing toward
the noise, my eye caught a glimpse of a
lank, tawny creature stealthily creeping
between the trees on the outer edge of the
clearing. His belly dragged the snow, so
low did he orouch. Ho had not seen me,
and he took the utmost pains to escape
observation. He was eying Vixen and
her foal over the low fenoe of their pen
and was deciding on the taotics best cal
culated to give him colt for supper.
Ho orept slowly round the clearing un
observed, as he thought, till he had the
stable between himself and the pen ; then
he left his cover. But he had underrated
Vixen's keenness. Her eye had been upon
him from the first, and the moment he
disappeared from her view she set up an
excited whinny, whioh was intended to
summon help from the camp.
The cook hoard her call. Without wait
ing for more than a glimpse of the panther
the cook started on the run for the chop
ping whero the men were at work I
knew he .had gone for his gun, the only
one in ' camp, whioh Jean Batiste had
taken with him after dinner.
Seeing no help come from the camp,
Vixen took her colt to the middle of the
pen and stood with it right under her
nose, while she kept a ceaseless watch on
all sides. The colt seemed to realize from
its mother's alarm that there was danger
astir and huddled Itself apprehensively to
gether. Presently round the corner of the stable
orept the panther, a tawny shadow, flat
on the snow. The moment he saw through
the openings of the fence that the eye of
the maro was upon him be bounded to
the top of the fence and made one bold
spring for his prey, but the mare was no
loss lightning swift than himself. At the
first glimpso of him she had whirled so
that her heels were toward tho enemy and
had waited in a crouching attitude that
one might have taken to indicate the ex
treme of terror. As the panther sprang
hor iron heels met him with a thud that
forced out of him an involuntary snarling
gasp, and he fell against the pen fence.
In an instant he flashed over the fence and
lay down in tho snow to recover his
breath.
Instead of making another direct attack
tho panther next rose to the fence, and
thence sprang to the roof of the stable,
whero ho crouched down and snarled
fiercely.
The colt was still the object of his
heart's desire. Tho moment he mounted
to the roof Vixen had withdrawn to the
farther edge of tho pen, and now she stood
hunched together with her head turned
backward, so as to let no movement of her
foo escape her eye.
From his superior height the panther
fancied that he could escape her heels and
reach the mare's back. As ho sprang from
his vantago ground the impetus of his at
tack was tremendous and almost irresisti
ble. Vixen almost stood on her head, and
her heels met him fair in the stomach, so
that ho shrieked under tho blow, but tho
mere momentum of his leap overcame the
resistance of Vixen's hoofs to the extent
that ho reached her back and bore the
brave mare to the ground with his de
scending force. She nimbly recovered her
self, however, and shook him off, and by
this timo tho cook came running toward
the pen with his gun cocked, expecting to
seo tho panther at her throat. But no;
there was little fight left in him. He
looked very sick as he tried to crawl out
of the ien, and the cook was on the point
of finishing him with a charge of buck
shot, but Vixen intervened.
Leaving her colt, she darted forward and
tore his nock fiercely with her powerful
teeth. Tho beast rolled over on his back,
screaming madly, and as Vixen trampled
him down with her front hoofs he doubled
and sank his claws into her neck and
shoulders.
Thero for a moment he snarled and
clawed, while tho brave mare's neck
streamed with blood, and tho cook sought
a chance for n shot. But Vixen's plung-
ings gave him no opportunity. -It was
plain to tho cook that the mare would kill
her adversary in a minute or two more,
but ho dreaded lest mcanwhilo she should
be seriously injured.
With some misgiving as to tho reception
ho might havo from Vixen himself,
though ho was going to her assistance, he
dropped his gun, drew his long knife and
jumped Into the perk As an opportunity
showed itself he drove the knife with all
his force straight through the beast's
backbone, dividing the spine, and the
lank carcass straightened out on the snow.
The brave mare stood over her fallen ad
vorsary and whinnied triumphantly, and
she made it plain to the cook that she ap
preciated his assistance. Then the cook
got water in his dishpan and washed her
wounds. The dressing of them he left
for her master to seo to on his return, but
ever afterward Vixen was as gentle to the
cook as toward her owner, though with
the rest of mankind she would have
naught to do. Youth's Companion.

A Famous Gypsy Dance.
The trreat dance which the gypsy min
strels are specially skilled In executing is
what is called the csardas, which begins
very slowly and indeed sentimentally, but
by tho cunning of the minstrels is worked
un into a veritnblo bacchanalian orgy
whldh almost dellos description. A solemn
nromonade on tho part of the various cou-
nliw hot-ins it. As the music accelerates
its time the couples break into a sort of
waltz. Then with tho timo still quicken
ing thev leave each other and dance inde-
nmiflnntlv. tho woman facing tho man.
Now they approach each other coquettish
lw. t.hfin thev retreat backward with
feigned aversion. This continues for
somo time, till at last under the influence
of tho increasing whirl of the musio they
ooivo nnn another round the waist and
hnmt into a veritable whirl of dizzy swift
ness, which (and we are speaking without
any exaggeration) tho oyocan scarcely iw
Inn for Its oelerltV.
This is but ono of the countless varieties
nf the csardas. Sometimes I have seen
tt.o nnnnif-a HnncincT with their backs to
onch nthnr nnd oven whirling round and
round in tho same uncomfortable posi
tion Sometimes I have witnessed three
f nrminc a sort of complicated leash,
whirling round and round with the same
swiftness and ease whioh two people would
usually exhibit. Good Words.

THE DOCTOR.
He Is Welt Advertised, Although He
i(C Doesn't Advertise.
We hear a good deal about the anti-
advertising ethics of tho medical profes
sion, but we seldom stop to think of the
vast amount; of advertising that every
physician secures for himself, ethios or no
ethics. His ever attending medicine case,
if he walks, or his distinctively "doctor's
rig," If he drives, proclaims his profession
to all who are within seeing distanoe. He
is a constant and persistent advertisement
of himself. In whatever capacity he may
live, move and have his being, he is per
mitted to prefix his advertising title to his
name and bo always and everywhere
known as "Dr." On the street, at tho
club, In tho lodgeroom. In society, he
never sinks to the level of plain "Mr."
He is never separated from his standing
ad.
If the physician buys a house or is elect
ed a director of a corporation, it is always
as "Dr. " Smith. If he is a deacon in the
church, nobody ever thinks of saying
'Deacon" Smith. He is "Dr." Smith
even when he passes the bread and wine.
To strangers he is always introduced by
his title, and his friends and acquaint
ances "Dr." him from morning until
night. It is "Good morning, doctor 1"
'Fine day, doctor!". "Good evening, doc
tor!" "Howd'y. doctor!" or iust main
"Hello, doo!" day in and day out. Even
his wife addresses him by his professional
handle and in company never fails to refer
to him as "the doctor."
Thus the physioian gets for nothing a
quantity of advertising that would cost
any business man a small fortune. Even
the newspaper, whose columns he does not
deign to use in a business way, always
mentions him as "Dr." Smith and gives
him hundreds of dollars' worth of pub
licity without money and without price.
It is as if ho went through life wearing a
big placard, ."I am a physician." It is
impossible for any one to know him, meet
him or hear of him without learning of
his profession. Printers' Ink.
