An Address to THnter.
Hfcl here tou come to make oa wheeas;
I ace your fingers on the trees,
Aud Lear you shouting on tbe Lreeza,
The storm clan's slogan.
You'll soon bo hero to nip my toes,
And paint my cheeks with sunset glows,
And fresco this o!d chin and nose
With blue and purple.
I hear you've been, you raving fellow,
Anions the Australasians yellow,
And scaring with your blatant hollow
The Polynesians.
You're potting rough; 1 fear you pass
Your time too much with Koreas,
And that star-in ntlo 1 gypsy lass,
The dark-eyed Solstice.
Old friend, together many a year
We've journeyed on through foul and
clear,
And now, old comrade, lend an ear
To my petition.
This year, I pray the--?, leave thy snowa
In cold Arcturus with thy blows;
OhI Winter, gently come to those
Who have no shelter.
Touch thorn kindly. Kindly deal
With those wh6 most thy rigors feel,
In trembling suppliancc they kneel
And crave tLy mercy.
Blister around tho rich nun's door;
Make him unlock his golden store,
Each year increasing more and mora
His deed of kindnoss.
Roar 'round tho miser till he qnakes;
Nip him and strip him till he sh kes;
Freeze him and squeeze him till he ma
A big donation.
And in the cause of Science, pray
Keep out the ico from Baffin's Bay,
So that Tolar "savants" win their way
To frozen glory.
Let those we love, though they abide
Far from us now, come to our side
Happy and well at Christ. mastide,
And we will bless thee.
Guy II. Avery,
MARIAN'S VOW.
It was a bright March morning, the
blue-jays dartiag ia and out of tho
cedar-trec3, the river rippling along
under tho wiilows, whoo branche al
ready beaa to bo veiled with soft,
grcoa mist, and tho floor of Snh Calli
per's kitchan had tho pattern of tho
two small-paned windows printed oa
its surfaco ia typo of sunshine, when
Marian cama ia from her morning task
of hanging out tho clothes.
Mrs. Calliper looked up from tho po
tatoo3 sho was paring for the noon din
ner. 'Why, Marian," said she;, "what's
tho matter? Gjt tho toothacho again?''
"It isn't the toothache, mother," said
Marian, depositing tha clothes-basset
on tho floor with something of a bang.
"It's everything !''
Mrs. Callipers faded blua eyes
opened wido.
"Child, what do you mean?" said
she.
Marian's lip quivered. Tho vivid
roses mounted to her checks.
"Mother," said she, I've suspected
something all alon"-, but sometimes
O Of
these things come over you sudden-like,
you know. And when I was hanging
out tha kitcnei towcl behind th3
smoke hou-o wall, Squiro Vanderbrug
gen drovo by with a man, and they sort
o slacked up tliea they came opposite
our gate and ths squiro pointed with
tS-hip-handlo and I heard hira say to
the other oao: 'That old p'.aco is all
going to ruia. Look at tho chimney-,
toppling over; look at ths sates, hang
lag on one hinge; look at the shingle',
rottiag on tha roof; and tho stone wall
tumbling down. Thing can't go on that
way long. It'll be ia tho market pres
ently and I'll buy it in. Bat twenty
years ago,' says he, mother, 'S-th Cal
liper wis the smartest man and tho best
farmer going. Eut hi woa a hundred -dollar
prira ia the lottery, and that un
settled hira. Every cent he made after
that west into the gift enterprise.
Nothing prospered with him. All ho
could sell, ho sold, aad all ho could
mortgage, ho mortgaged, until finally
bis brain gave way aad ' "
"Hush, Marian I' said Mr?. C.lliper,
with a quick glance at tha room be
yond, whero a prematurely white-haired
man sat rocking aimlessly to and fro,
with aa uiread newspaper ia his lap.
"He's deaf, but sometimes ha hoars
tilings when wo least expect it."
"Mother, is it true? You've kept mo
at Aunt Alma'a uatil tho cider girls
were married. I know scarcely any
thing of what has happened at homo. Is
it true, mother?"'
Mrs. Calliper burst into tears.
"Ye?, child, it's tru?," she admittod.
"Wo are very poor; wo can't keep up
the interest on the old mortgage; and
how caa folks blamo us when tho sea
son for cummer boarders was so bad and
poor father can't do a stroke o' work to
help U3? '
"And yet Louisa and Phcbe married,
and left you and father to bear ail thi
alone 1 '
"It'a human natut', child. "What
else caa you expect?"
Marian was silent a moment or twoj
then she spoke with a choked voict?.
"I won't go and lcava yoti, mother T'
said she, giving Mrs. Calliper such a
bug that tho good soul dropped her
potato-knifo into tho parings. "I'll
never mirry any ono until the mortgage
is p . id up, and the fences built over,
and the roof re-shinglod, and the old
place made to look liko itself again.
No, not if tho TresiJcat himself came
to ask m ; !'
Mrs. dlliper smiled through her
tears.
"You are excited, dear," said she.
"Ycu don't mean what you say."
"Yes, I do!" persisted Maiaa. "I
mean it! Are the calicoes ready,
mother? It's a pity to rnhs even an
hour of this bright sunshi-:e."
So tho farmer's daughter returned to
tho homely details of hor cverydiy life;
but m her heart sho carried ths vow
she had male in that first hour of her
wounded pride and filial tenderness.
As for Mr'. Calliper, the forgot all
about it. Pheb3 had loft her and
Louisa had left her, and eo, she rea
soned, Marion would also, when tho
fateful moment canto. Il was oniy nat
ural. Girls would marry, aad th'j old
folks must expect to bo left ti them-seiv-3.
Simoa Garry was the first suitor that
came a well-to-do ycung clerk in tho
village store.
"I've scmo mcnoy of my own," said
ho, "and I get thirty-live dollars a
month at tho store; and father and
mother'll let me havj tho south wing
of tho farm houso to keep house in
withouL rent. And I'vo always loved
you, Marian, sinco that first Sunday ycu
came homo from your Aunt Alma's anl
if you' 11 accept me, you shan' t have no
reason to complain."
"I can' t leavo father and mother,"
sail Marian, calmly, "Father's bclp'oss,
and mother is growing old, and I'm
the last child at home."
"A man aia't generally expected to
marry the whole family," stammered
h?.
"And beside?, " went on Marian, "I'll
marry no mm until the old farm is out
of debt, and tho hou.o fitted up to look
as it once dil. Xo, Simoa many
thanks to you, but I'm ia no hurry to
settb yet."
And Simoa went away, scarcely know
ing whether to bo glad or sorry.
Marian Caiiiper va, by all odds, tho
prettiest girl ia tho neighborhood; but
who would marry her, weighted as
sho was with old folks and tho old
house ?
Xuither was Marian herself much, dis
turbed. Sho liked honest Snnon well
enough; but as for loving a stupil
oaf liko that, it was too ri licu'ou !
Sao felt quite tlilT.Teatly, however,
when Gilbert Woston asked her,
ono soft September twilight, to bo his
wife.
"I don't pretend to bo rich," sail he;
"i.ut I can rnako a nice, cosy littlo
homo for you, Miriam And tho rich
est man in all the world couldn't love
you more than I do."
"I I don't feel prepared to bo mar
ried yet," said Mai i in, intent oa a clus
ter of tubc-roscs which sho had gath
ered from tho strangling garden.
"I can wait, Marian." pleaded he.
"Oh, it isn't worth whi'o for you to
wait," said sho, hurriedly for she
knew that Gilbert's slender mcomo
would not go f;.r toward th) ol jtct she
had at heart. "But I hope wj shall
always be bo fiieads!''
And poor Gilbert withdrew, cut to
tho heart.
Tho next day sho accepted Jjhn Vaa
derbruggen, tho rich squire's son.
"lie's a sullen, rough sort of fellow,
daughter," said M s. Calliper, wist
fully. "Arc you sure you love him?'
"II) has promised to cancol tho mort
eae," said M irian, exultantly. "And
to put the place ia order; aud ho will
let mo livo hero with you, dear, and
father. What elso could I hope for? '
Young Vauderbruggea went home and
told his father of tho bargain ho had
made.
"Humph P grunted the squiro.
"Couldn't you have doao better than
that?''
"She's got a face liko a rose," said
John. "I want her; and I'd havo her,
if it cost twice as much I"
"Humph!' again uttered tha squire.
"Well, promises arc cheap. At.d as
long as nothing is put down ia black
and white, nobody is bound 1"
John Yandcrbruggen chuckled. Ho
was a truo chip of tho old block.
"Dd you s'pose I didn't know that?"
said he.
The week beforo tho proposed wed
dia?, liowever, poor old Mr. Calliper
died, quietly sitting ia his rocking
chair, and tho ceremony was postponed.
And ono day Marian took courago and
went over to the squire's houso.
"John," said she, "I'm sorry if it's
any disappointment to you; but I've
boon thinking it over and I can't
marry you. I don't love you a3 a wife
should love her husband. It was the
money I was thinking of not you.
Hero is the ring aad the presents you
have given me. Aid now good-by! '
John Yandcrbruggen turned purple
with rage.
"It's Gil Weston you are going to
marry!" said he, ia a choked voice.
"Yes," said Marian, valiantly, "it ia.
Fori love him, and I don't love youl'
So sho repulsed the temptation that
had so nearly overpowerod her better
nature, and followed tho dictates of her
own heart.
"But I can't marry you yet, Gilbert,''
said she. "I must wait until I have
earned some more monoy."
And then Eh: told Lin the story o!
her vow.
"M:thcr sty," sho added gneilinr,
"that a foolish promLe is better brokca
tha kept; but I don't feci so. It's Very
real to me."
"And you are right," said Gilbert,
'Bit wa will w:.rk together, Marian.
What I caa save shall la r.d lei to your
store, and nil tho while I shall L" work
ing for you. "
The tcrrs crime into Mirian's eyes.
How tha::k:'ul she was that sho had not
married John Vaadcrbruggen, wliea
G.lbcrt Weston loved her like this!
Scarcely r wc-.k hii elttpted, when
Gilbert cauio to tho oil farm -l,,.iso
with a radiant face.
"lean claim you now, Marian," said
he. 4 S'.v.ethearr, I have sold my firm
to a company who are manufacturiag
silex. They havo found a he l;-,c of tho
very quartz they needed tip in trie sheep
pasture, and tho old R;ckA Falls will
supply tho water powc. Ton thousand
dollen is to be tho price. Tint will
tako up tho mortgage and fit up this
placo neater than any pink and leave us
a nice sum to beqia housekcc ing with.
And wo wi l iive here. To a young
man like mo it don't matter much whero
I am, so that my heart's dearest is with
me; but your mother will liko to livo
under tho sha low of tho roof that has
sholterel her so long, I know. '
The Ymdcrbru ,rgens wero not
pleasod. P.iebo and Louisa declared
that tho wholo thing from beginning to
end was ridiculous and fantastic, oi
p 'cialiy sine j their mother had male a
will, leaving tho place to M trian alonos.
But Marian was happy. II i I sha not
kept her vow? S. turd ay IN'ight.
The Fecundity of Fish.
It ha,3 been calculated that, as fhh
produce so many eggs, if vtist numbers
of the latter and ot the fish themselves
were not continually dcatroyod and
taken they would sooa fid up every
availabio space ia the sea. Fir in
stance, from GO, 00 ), 000 to 70,000,0)0
codfish aro annually cauedit on tho
shoros of Newfoundland. Bat even
that qumtity seems small when it ii
considered that eich cod yields about
4, 500, 000 eggs every season, and that
even 8,000,000 havo boon found ia tho
roe of a single co l. Wero the GO. 000,
000 cod taken on the coa t ol Newfound
land left to breed, the 0,000,000 fe
males producing 5,000,000 egs
every year, i: would give a yearly ad
dition of 150,000,000,000,000 young
codfhh. Other ii-h, though not equal
ling tho cod, aio wonderfully pro.ific.
A herring weighing six or seven ounces
is provided with about .50, 000 eggs.
After in iking all reasonable- alio wanes
for tho destruction of eg '3 aud tho
young it has been estimated that ia
threo years a single pair of herrings
would produce 154,000,000. Buff. a
calcu lated that if a pair of hcrriigs
could be left to breed and multiply un
disturbed for a period of twenty years,
they would yield an amount of fish
equd in bulk to tho glolo on which wo
live.
Bleached 31oiitachc3.
"The latest fad is bleaching mom
tachev' said a barber. "B rbors don't
do it. Men buy the bleach and apply
it at hom It is done mostly by young
men. You can see lots of youig men
today with daik brewn hair who havo
Ic-vely blond mou?tachc3. Tho bleach
makes the moustache streaked ia lines
of gold anil liht brown. The girls
liko blond moustaches. Black mous
tache5, even of tho simoa-pui-o sort,
havo lost favor.
"Moa with fiery red moudaches uso
bleach nowadays. Not all moa with
red moustaches, but a groat many.
You won't sco near so many red ruoui
taches now as you could havo seen a
year ago. You'll see a man with a head
of red hair, while his moustache will bo
a loo'y tint of old gold. Tho bleach
is just &i i:t jut iou s a? tho black hair
dye. A goo 1 many men with red j
beards US3 tho bleach too. A blond j
beard is very fashionable nowadays.
The ordinary cvery-day observer isa' t
likely to djtect a bogu blonl bearl or
mou-tadi-, but a barber who knows
his business can ted them every time."

Curious Feet of the Chinese Jacana.
Ono of the most striking moditications
of a bird foot is found in the little Chi
nese jacann, which is a water bird ia
its haunts and habiti aud yet ii not so
in appearance Its food is found fox
tha most part on tho leaves of tho
aquatic weeds which rise above tho sur
faco of tho water, and consists of the
tiny insect llfo always so abundant
there. Many of theso aquatic planti,
notably tho lily, cover tho surface of
tho water with a rank but unstable
growth. No one or two of tho leaves
would afford a sufliciont resting place
for even a bird; Lut distribute the
weight of a snull bird over several of
the loaves, and it cculd wander over tho
undulating surface with perfect safety.
Tho toes of tho j icana aro so dispropor
tionately elongated that tho desired
condition is attained, and it can pass
securely over a carpet of fio.iting weeds
whero a lighter bird, lucking tho elon
gated too, would sink at onco into the
witcr. The jicana endures the water
well enough, but it i3 on the surfaco and
not ia the water that it finds its food.
When alarmed, it divo3 at once into tha
water and swims some distance before
coming up. And even then it does not
ccmo fairly to tho surface, but merely
thruits its long bill out of water until
tho nostrils are exposed, and so hid lea
it remains until danger ii past. Scien

Long Canals.
An English newspaper gives the fol
lowing list of long cmaU: T ie Impj
rial canal of China is over 1000 mile3
long. In tho year of 1631 was com
pleted tho greatest undertaking of tho
kind oa tho European continent, the
caaal of Lxnuedoc, or tho Canal du
Miii, to connect the Atlantic with the
Mediterranean. Its length is 14S milos,
it has mere than 100 locks an t about
fifty aqueduct, and it3 highest pnrt is
no less than GOO feet abovo the sea,
while it is navigabio for vacsels of up
ward of 100 toes. Tho largest ship
caual ia Europe is tho great Nrth Hol
lan 1 canal, completed ia 1325. It ii
125 feet wido at tho water surface, 81
feet wide at tho bottom, and has a
depth of 20 feet, and -extends from
Amsterdam to the Helder, 51 milet.
The Caledonian Canal, ia Scot. and, has
