A clou fly sky fills all the west,
And all thu east is dark and coll
A stranger, tarrying for his rest,
A shepherd gathers in his fold.
To faith all doubting doors unlock'
To faith there is no foreign flock;
The cloud, the cold, the darkling dome
Is framed of sunbeams arching home.
Rolls yawning black a sullen sea,
With savage tee'h that gli-ten while;
The wolves of water snap, 1 ut he,
The faithful, knows "t is vain they Lita
For him all winds to havens blow,
And all around him ami lo!ow
The howling waves, the billows' foam
Are the still waters flowing home.
Though dark the sky and barred tho fold,
And the wreck litth fathoms deep,
lie fmduth comfort in the cold,
And life in the eternal sleep.
And all things toil to bring him good,
And rest is in his tumult rude;
And all things whisper to him, ''Com?
Abide with me, for I am home."
BAB'S BONNET.
"Bah, I haven't $10 in tho world, and
the butcher's hill came in yesterday.
Cheer up, little girl, and never inind
tho new bonnet. Jack Snelling must
he no end of a ca 1 if he minds what
kind of a frame your dear little face
looks out of." Tho big brother of Bab
Nixon ended his words with a gentle
touch upon a round shoulder turned
petulently away from him, and after
"waiting a moment for a word or a smile
from its owner in vain, his faco clouded
slightly and ho passed quickly cut of
tho breakfast room.
As the sound of his steps died away
one dismally wet Lluo eye appeared
furtively above a scrap of lhicn cambric
crumpled into a limp wad of two baby
ish, dimpled hand?, then tho other eye
cani3 out, until finally the whole
dishevelled head was held defiantly
erect.
The general stormines? of the domes
tic atmosphere seemed to have crept
even into Bub's saucy yellow bans,
which pulled and crisped in unexpected
kinks about the pretty low brow and
white temples as the silky fuzz about a
baby's head is wont to disport itself.
A breeze came ia ju-t then through
tho open window, thrown up to let in
the premature balmine-ss of tha sunny
March morning, and blew some of the
I0030 locks intrusively i.baut
her bluo eyes. Up ll;w the
dimpled hand to push them aside
as a very cros young voico cried, "I
don't card I do not carol'' with
emphasi'. "If 1 cannot havo a new.

ways notice?, too, and he'll be suro to
see how perfectly mangy my old blue
feathers aro getting, and Lis sister is
sure to have something straight from
Paris! If I could oaly make two rib
bons and a bit of jet look as ravishing
as Kate Arbuckle dees my bonnets
wouldn't cost so much, but I can't, and
I don't care! I should think Ernest
might let me get trusted for just this
once, as long as he is going to get mo a
bonnet in a little while, anyway. I
mean to ask him this very morning, and
it won't do any harm to stop oa the way
to the oihee and see what JImc. Yau
ricr has that will suit mo. Then I can
tell Ernest how much it will cost."
Foolish little Barbara flew about the
dainty nest which tho dear older brother
had sheltered her m through all their
orphaned years; giving an approving
nod at her trim tailor-made gown of
brown as she passed the long mirror on
her way out to interview Mine. Vaurier
about tho much-desired bonnet.
"Just the thing for you. It came
last night. Lizette, bring tho odd,
blue affair, for Mile. Nixon." Truly,
was it not "just tho thing?" And oh,
how blue her eyes and how sinny her
hair shone under the exquisitely pretty
structure, which Madame nestled with
assured, touches upon her head. She
really never knew how tho matter came
about. Perhaps 3Iadamc talked too
volubly to hear her objections, or mark
her hesitation. "It made no difference
at all," she assured Barbara, whether
tho bonnet was paid for now or in two
months." She could not sell it to any
one else without being dissatisfied, hav
ing seen it above Mademoiselle's golden
hair." The bill would "be in the box
to bo paii when her brother plo ased,"
and so little Barbara went out sure that
her bonnet was above criticism, but not
quite so sure that here management of
the matter would bear as satisfactory in
spection when she told Ernest. As she
ran down Madame Vaurier's broad stone
steps, a hat was lifted by some one who
stood by an open coupo in front. It was
Jack Sneliing, who shot a glance of ap
proval after her from his dark eyes, as
he passed up the steps with his 6ister.
"Now, to tell Ernest," thought Bab,
as sho laid aside her wraps and prepared
to street her brother's return with a din
ner of his especial viands, that should
make him as wax in her hands.
The dinner hour camo and Barbara,
fresh as arose in her soft wool gown,
was ready to '"fess up'' and bo for
given. But when after waiting a long
thirty minutes beyond tho time a mes
senger camo istead with a hurried note:
"Off for Philadelphia; send ray traps
after no; caro "Wales Brothers, 1,211
Chestnut street. Will write" her heart
sauk. Now, what wa3 to b:s done?
Clearly there was nothing except to
write; and tell him all about it. Sthe
next day Ernest's bag was packed and
forwarded, and a penitent lcttjr went
by the first mtil to Philadelphia.
Day after went day by and no letter
came in reply. No word from Ernest
of any kind; as though to emphasize
his displeasure. Aunt Valerie, who was
always ready in emergency, came to
stay with her, and then the great storm
shut down all communication from other
cities, and poor, miserable littlo Bab
was left to ima-ini all possible and im
possible calamities as having befallen
her brother. Some delay ia sending
homo tho bonnet had been requested by
Barbara, who was a little uncertain as
to what Ernest's rigid sense of justice
would prompt him to do, and then the
storm further delayed tho delivery of
the tell-tale box.
But finally it came, and Bab locked
herself into her room to open it with a
"dreadfully gone feeling," as she after
ward described it. Sho took off tho
soft layers of white paper, out of which
fell the bill. She lifted it mechanical
ly. " Fifteen dchars" were the figures
sho had seen on the box when Madame
took it out, and Ernest had said he had
not "ten." "Oh, what a wicked, sel-
fiih va Oh, my goo oodncss ! ' sho
ended with a gasp. Yes, there it was,
in good round figures -$2"!
To one imported straw bonnet $1.".00
To one bird on same 10. 00

Received payment.
2o! 2o! 20! 2)! 23! 2o! 2o! They
danced crozily before her eyes as she
sank in a dazed little heap oa the floor.
"What would Ernest say? Sho was but
17, and it never occurred to her unbusi
nesslike ideas that Madame Vaurier was
taking advantage of her, and that she
cculd send the bonnet back. Aunt Va
lerie had money, but Ernest had forbid
den her ever to borrow a penny of Aunt
Valeric oa pain of his deepest disap
proval. He was so proul and honest,
and she,' "nasty little selfish thintr,"had
dared to call him "mean.
"lie waa
worth a hundred Jack Snellings, so
there ! '
That very evening Jack called with
his sister, who was very kind and cor-
dial ia her gentle, reserved wa, and
the invitations for Easter day were re
newed with some well-bred insistence,
upon learning that her brother was ab
sent and Aunt Valerie was to join them.
But thero was good "atuff'' in Bab's
sturdy little body after all, and even
while her eyes took ia the quiet ele
gance of Miss Mildred Sneliing' s attire
sho was coming to a Spartan's
resolution. She wou"d go-, but
sli3 would not wear an un
paid for bonnet. Somehow she felt bet
ter after that, and when a telegram ar
rived before Sunday, saying that Ernest
would return the next Monday, sho was
quite ready with a smiling welcome to
grcot the unexpected announcement of
Mr. Sneliing. Something Jack hal
to say kept him ia such a ferment that
ho would not wait, so he had called to
"put it to the test and win or lose."
But somehow matters did not progress
just as Jack hal anticipated. For,
when he had told her in his most manly
way how dear she was, nnd all that he
wanted her to promise, Bab simply
buried her bluo eyes in two dimpled
hands and sobbed: "You wouldn't!
Oh, you wouldn't, if you knew what,
what a ho-orrid little wretch I am! '
And then, the ice once broken for the
revelation, she told Jack all the miser
able tale. "When she got through she
waited not a word came from .Tick.
"O my, he wa3 too disgusted with her
to speak!' Sho "knew he would be,"
and began to sob afresh. This was too
much, and Jack drew away
tho hot hands and wet hand
kerchief to show her his
own eyes, dancing with suppressed
laughter. "Didn't you get any mail
tonight?" ho sail at last. "No yes
not that is, I got a oh, I never
looked at itl Some one camo in," she
stammered, wonderiagly. 'Well, go
and get it, please, now," said Jack, re
leasing her, to run out and return with
an envelope, which she toro hastily
open. "Mine. Vaurier's bill, receipt
ed!' sho gasped. ""What does it
mean?" "Read, and you will see,"
said Jack. "Mine. Vaurier happens to
bo Mildred's milliner as well, and she
mado somo purchase the same date that
you did. The bookkeeper has mixed
the bills and sent them to the wrong
brothers, that is all. My sister's bill is
probably awaiting your brother's return
at his office. Suppose you let the mat
ter go, as it wiil be, I hope, but a short
tim.3 till I may pay all your bills un
questioned. That is for you to say."
It was answered satisfactorily, no
doubt, for a very rosy littlo B ib, gath
ered herself resolutely together a half
hour later and insisted upon taking the
bill into the library, where it should
meet her brother'3 eye the first thing
upon his return. A littlo later she stood
in her clinging, pale-blue dress, leaning
against tho deep saloon hangings in the
archway. Her dark lashes, in startling
contract with her ys'low hair almost!
rested oa her cheek, a tnffj palo now,
as she realized the serioin and sacrei
sweet-ies3 of tho now tie.
"It is kind of you Jack, to wi?h to
shield me from .....ortiiicatioa at my own
folly, but I cannot wear it until Er
nest hasforgivea me, and ho is tha only
one yet,'' (with a shy littlo cmphasiO,
"who has a right to buy my bonnets.
I will not wear it tomorrow!"
"Oh, yes, you will, littlo enc," said
a voico behind th3 rod draperies, as
thej swung apart and Ernest Nixon
caught the startled girl ia his arms a3
he entered tho room. "It was rather
mean to listen, Jack, but finding a bill
for my sister's bonnet with your signa
ture on my talle vipen my premature
arrival to-night, 1 naturally looked up
a prompt solution of the situation. It's
all right, and if you'll look in before
you leavo I'll give you a check for your
autograph."
"You may as wall haadme my sister's
bill, which you will find among your
papers somewhere at the samo time,"
said Jack, laughing.
And tho next day two new bonnets
met upon tho heads of thoirfair owner?,
with such damage to the heart of Ernest
Nixon that when he told Jack and Bab
later of his successful business venture
in Philadelphia he also added that bo
ore long ha proposed that they should
exchange their sisters' bonnt bilH per
manently, a proposition which was
promptly accepted. --Hartford Times.
-Bear" Steaks of Horse Flesh.
I don't know whether or not hor30
has ever b2en sold hero in Boston for
food, but I am suro that it has been
cooked and eaten. Some time ago a
leading "vet," who i, I believe, an ad
vocate of this use of horseflesh, invited
several persons of his acquaintance,
somewhat noted as gourmets, to join
him in a little supper of bear steaks at
one of our hotels. Ho represented that
the bear had been shot ia Miiuo and
sent to him as a present. The fact was,
however, that the dhhe3 which he set
before his guests wero composed of
horse meat a plump youag nag, bc-lonirinn-
to a friend of hi', haviao- bro
ken a leg, so that it becamo necessary
to kill him, thus furnishing material for
the feast. All who were present at it
enjoyed it very much, and considered
that the steaks and other forms of sup
posed bear's meat provided for them
were excellent and as good as beef or
lamb. Not till the last dish had been
removed did the "vet" enlighten his
quests as to the real nature of their en
tertainment, and when he did so their
after-dinner tranquility was not a little
disturbed. Most of them turned pale,
a few were augry, and ono or two cool
and hardy spirits wero only amused.
Almost all ot them, however, declared
upon reflection that they were converts
to tho theory which they had uawit
tingly put into practice; but neverthe
less, I doubt very much if a single ono
of the party would accept another invi
tation from that "vet" without a guar
antee as to the character of the viands
of which they wero invited to partake.

A Diamond luller Tooth.
About a year ago it became fashion
able in New York for young ladies to
havo a diamond set iaone of their teeth,
which sparkled resplendently whenever
they smiled. The fashion grew in
popularity, and was adopted in other
of the large cities, but uatil recently
the extravagant habit did not reach
Louisville. Now, however, there i3 a
young lady who can be seen promenad
ing Fourth avenue almost any afternoon,
her red, ripe lips parted with a sweet
smiie. At the point of one of her upper
front teeth sparkles a brilliant little
stone, which is the occasion of the ever
pleased mood of its fair owner. The
young lady, who is the daughter of a
b.mker, recently returned lrom a visit
to New York, and whilo thero "caught
on" to the craze;. She has numerous
rare and costly stones, but it is safe to
say that none nor all of them givo
their fair owner half the pleasure ex
tracted from the diminutive gem im
bedded in her pearly front teeth. The
cao mentioned is probably tho only
one of the kind in Louisville. Louis

What It Costs to Stop a Train.
It is not generally known that Io33 of
power is involved in thi starting and
stopping of an ordinary train of cars.
There is required about twice as much
power to stop a train as to start one,
the loss of power depeiding upon the
momentum. A train going at the rate
of sixtv mi'.cs an hour can, by mean3 of
the Westinghou53 air-brake, be stopped
within 120yard3 from the first applica
tion of the brake. Now enough power
is lost to carry this same train fifteen
mile3 over a plane surface. First, there
is the momentum acquired by the train
flying at this remarkable rate of speed,
then the los3 of steam in applying tho
brake?, and lastly, but not least, tho
extra amount of coal to compensate for
all these losses. By computation it has
been ascertained that every complete
stop involves a cost of $1.17. Kansas
City Star.

Professor Poel, cf St. Petersburg,

It is reported that chloride of nitro

posable under the action of liht and

In tho early forms of electric incan
descent lamps the filament was of plati
num, and it was noticed that a thin film
of the metal soon formed on tho insida
of tho glass bulb. Ia recent investiga
tions Dr. Alfred Berliner has found tho
phenomenon to bo duo to tho tearing
away of solid particles by tho violent
emission of gasses tho platinum had ab
sorbed. At Aldorney, England, breakwatei
blocks of stone, nine tons in weight,

Although there is an old saying that
lightning never strikes twice in tho
-samo place, an old walnut tree near
Baltimore, Ml., has been struck five
times. The first time that it was struck
ten sparrows that were taking shelter

the tree wa3 a nest of three crows, and
they were saved only because their nest
was blown out just beforo tho tree was
struck.
According to M. Blavier's theory, the
great earthquake disturbances of 1755,
1881 and 1887 are to be associated with
the abnormal accumulations of ice about
the north pole. Ha supposes such ac
cumulations to have caused a deflection
of the Gulf Stream away from Europe,
producing great climatic changes, and
a slight disturbance of equilibrium in
the sea bottom, followed by a possible
local fracture along the line of least
resistance.
The public monuments of Vienna are

the monuments, urge3 a war of exter
mination upon tho birds. Ha recom
mends the novel plan of intoxicating the
pigeons by feeding them with alcohol
soaked peas, which would render
slaughter easy, while the volatile in
toxicint would not impair the value of
the flesh as food.
