A THOUSAND CHEERS.
A thousand cheers for a blighted life.
The lonely one we daily meet.
The sad. Bad lot a knlpht in thestrlf
Is trodden down by rapid feet.
He needs our hand in the heartleas race,
The voice oflovc might calm hU fears.
Our smile might brijrhten his careworn face,
Inspire his life with a thousand cheers.
A thousand cheers for the Bcwinjr ffirl!
With her tired hands and her keary heart
Though pure In 6oul unknown In the whirl
Of money-makers in city mart.
O beautiful flower on the toilsome path,
O jewel rare for the weary eyes,
O thought sublime that her toiling hath
A thousand cheers from the starry skie3!
A thousand cheers for the honest boy,
Unlearned la scheme of tame and wealth,
Whose steps are heralds of restless Joy
The restless joy of rugged health.
The clouds may shadow, some sunny day.
This picture giirwltli morning light.
But honor on earth still finds a way
And room enough for a deed of right.
A thousand cheers for the man of mlghtl
"Jlp bravely strives when others fail,
WhVmarcbes on to the losing fight
When rights go down and wrongs prevail.
The man who bears the scorn and the frown
And Censure's bitter blastlngbreath.
Receives, at last, a dear-bought crown,
A thousand cheers at the gates of death.

A SWEET APOLOGY.
How a Miss of Seventeen Con
quered Her Lover.
1 wish you wouldn't fidget so, Har
ry. How lo you expect we can get
these pictures arranged when you jog
gle the' table in that outrageous man
ner?" m
Well, Ini sure, Nell," answered the
accused, deprecatingly. "it's rather
rough on a fellow to be compelled to
sit the best part of an evening handling
the paste-pot and sorting fancy cards.
1 thought vou had outgrown that sort
of thing when you put away your school
books."
. "That shows all you know," was the
contemptuous rejoinder. "As if these
albums were not all the rage, and
' Alice, so good and thoughtful, bringing
all the newest and loveliest cards from
Paris. Why, my dear boy, (this in a
triumphaut'tonc,) my book will b a
long way the most beautiful one in
town."
"Yes, I know," muttered the young
man, with a reprehensible lack of inter
est "But you promised to let me
row you across Silver Lake this evening-
The moonlight nights are nearly
gone and we haven't settled any thing
yet, Nellie."
"Can't you talk before Alice? I'm
sure we necdu't mind her."
Here I, being the Alice referred to,
hastily rose and offered to resign my
position as "paster-in-chicf."
"No, no," Nell exclaimed.
"I'am going to get more paste," I
answered.
"Why don't you use mucilage?"
queried Mr. Harry, in a conciliatory
tone, resigning himself to the inevi
table. "Because we haven't any and they are
out of it at the stationer's, so we thought
a little home-made material would do as
well"
"Oh, no, it won't," ejaculated Harry;
"with alacrity. "1 wouldn't do any
more just now. It would Ixj far better
to wait and finish your work with the
proper stuff. Come (this very plead
ingly) a little row will do you good, and
Miss Alioe will perhaps join us," con
tinued our hero, with a suspicious lack
of warmth.
Gracefully decliniug the invitation, I
watched the young lovers slowly tread
ing Miller s lane.
About an hour had elapsed, and I was
comfortably doiug niy hair preparatory
to seeking my downy couch, when Ntll
rushed in niy room with blazing eyes
and heightened color, and. Hinging her
self on a chair, exclaimed: "Harry and
I have had such a row."
"Indeed, 1 replied, unmoved by a
atatcment whose recurrence could be
estimated as happening about once every
twenty-four hours.
Yes," said Nell, s-omewhat crushed"
by my lack of sympathy, "and, Allie,
it was all about a miserable box of bon
bons which Fred Clarke, that clever
.young lawyer, brought me from the
city. Harry said he wished 1 would get
over my childish love for sweets, that it
was ruinous to the digestion, to say
notiiing of my lovely teeth. I told him he
only made my health an excuse, that the
truth of the matter was jealousy. Jeal
ousy about poor Fred, and he 'needn't
think because he had just taken his
doctor's diploma that he could com
. mence practice with me as first patient.
Well, 3ou ean readily uuderstand. dear,
how one word led to another, but when
Harry wound up iu his conceited way
by declaring medicine to be a noble
profession and law a despicable one, I
tell you I couldn't stand it. and I in
formed his highness that I would never
speak to him agaiu unless he made roe
an apology, and what do you think? The
wretch laughed and walked off sayiug:
01i, ccrtainlv, Miss XicolLs. I'll make
a sweet apology, " and with a burt
of tears sweet Nell, who after all was
little more than a mere child, relapsed
into despa'r on a man-me fdy, there
, by reducing the red ribbon to irre
deemable dampness. 1, with my five
years' seniority, hardly knew what con
solation would prove most ctlicacious iu
' 'soothing iudignant seventeen.
It was useless to indicate that it was
a mere boy and girl spat about a st'e-k
of canity, or that it was quite proper
for the incipient physician to object to
an undue indulgence in sweets, or to
luut at the flattery which is always con
veyed by the, demon of jealousy."
All these suggestions were received
with scorn, from the indisputable fact
that Harry had made biiu-eli disagree
able "froiu the. lirst." objecting to the
harmless .amusement of "making an
album," giving vent to sarcasms re
garding the pictures, the paste and
various otlu-r things connected with the
artistic employment.
"Nell Nell!" yelled the musical
Tommy, as my cousin's brother was
called." -Here's a package for vou."
Wc were most comfortably disposed
on an old :liawl, with books" and work,
in' the grove, just Jo the left of the old
fashioned farm-houc.
No reference had been made to the
last night, but my Nell had lost that
buoyancy of spirits which rendered us
all her willing subjects. Full of curi
osity we awaited the coming of the
dreadful boy. who burst upon us breath
less but grinning, bearing aloft a heavy
parcel about the sue of a large cocoa
nut. He dropped it into her lap and
gasped: With Harry Blessing's com-
pliments. The colored nian brought
it and he said there was no 'answer.
Hurry up: let's see what it is. I'll
open it I'll cut the string. Here's a
knife," volunteered the voluble and
obliging Tomim.
The .removal" of sundry rolls of the
thick brown pr.per disclosed to -our gaze
a round, glass jar, securely sealed, .filled
with some thick, goldeu fluid.
What can it be?" we exclaimed,
hanltaneousty.
"What a lovely color," added Nell.
"There's no label on it. I wonder
wkat " she paused and turned the
pretty jar slowly round and round.
"Why, yon two gooses," politely re-
rirnf Tom. "why, it's honey
rtraiiftri hosey. Old maa Blessing is
EUY-aboat bees, andyoar lMM'kaovs
bam 8Mr youaro on swmtt, aadot
mars he'd be smre to tend you soma,
of the first crop."
"But isn't it a little early in the. sea
son for honey, Tom?" I ventured.
"Early! Of course not Why I see' d
a whole row of jars just like them in
Killer's grocery, yesterday."
This decided all doubts on the matter
and with a happy laugh and brimming
over with importance, Nell dispatched
Tom to ask auntie if we might have hot
biscuits for tea, "and Tommy, dear,"
added our heroine in-inuatingly,
"You'll run over to Willow "farm, won't
you, with a note, and Til finish your
reins before you get back?"
"All right, see that you do," waa the
patronizing response, as he rushed off
to execute his mission. As soon as he'
was well out of sight and sound Nell
exclaimed: "Wiry, Alice, don't you see?
Why. it's as clear as day. Poor Harry;
how clever of him."
Perceiving that I did not comprehend,
she continued: "Don't you remember
how provoked I was because Harry de
clared emphatically that of course he
would make me an apology 'a sweet
apology' and here it is" holding it
up against the sunlight triumphautty.
"I shall send him a dear little note,
saying the apology is accepted, ami
ask him to tea," anif claspiug fheswe.il
treasure in both small hands he
hastened to the house and lost no time
in penning the few words which would
pardon and recall the erring one. Aunt
Mary gave us carte blanche, and much
delight was expressed at the prospect of
light biscuits, fresh butter and golden
honey.
Prompt to the moment came the re
pentant swain. . Ureeted with smil 9
was he by a lovely little maiden, dressed
in an exquisitely fitting pale blue ca-h-mere
robe, particularly Incoming to my
fair cousin.
Not a word was said iu reference tt
the past.
As for Harry, he looked a picture of
puzzled delight at h's 'ove's magna
nimity. We seated ourselves abqut Aunt
Mary s bountiful boatd. and after each
had been served with cold chicken, jelly
and light snowy bi-cuits. almost too hot
to touch, conversation began. "Nell'e,
what in the world have you got that
thing for there?" inquired Air. Blessing,
indicating the jar.
"Just wait and you'll see." nodded
our pretty hostess, as wit'i dexterous
fingers she quickly loosened the top.
At this moment 1 noticed a pecnliai
smile pass over Mr. Blessing's coun
tenancc.
Expectant Tommy, who could na
longer restrain his feelings, deiuander
liberal and immediate distribution.
"Tom, keep "quiet!" tried Nell. "It"'
my turn lirst."
"Of course, that's only-fair.'" echoed
the chorus at t- e table.
"But hadn't you better wait till "
"I don't seethe reason why." .stam
mered the bewildered Harry.
The chorus unit d in a full crv of
"Oh, hush!" "That'll do!" "GivJ us
some!" etc., etc., until our fr'euJ Harry
was rendered quite inaudible.
Nell poured a generous quantity of
honey over her dclic'ously-buttered
biscuit.
"All!" murmured she, raising it to
her lips.
"Ah!" . echoed the sympathetic
chorus. The lovely mouth closed quick
ly over a goodly bite.
Nell!" shrieked Harry, "what are
you doing?"' and grasping her arm he
sprang from his chair, overturning the
jar and ruining the blue cashmere for
ever. My cousin covered her face with a
napkin and fled from the room. I fol
lowed her. Mr. Blessing did not wait
further developments. Tom rolled on
the floor in ecstacy of merriment, while
poor Aunt Mary and Uncle James were
leu solitnrv and surprised at the fa
table.
Is it necessary to tell oir readers how
vainly poor Harry tried to explain that
in the humility of his spirit he had pur
chased a large jar of the very finest
liquid glue at Killer's grocery, and how
he contemplated helping with heart and
hand to complete the album which had
occasioned so much disfurbance. He
had brought a charming collection of
peace offerings, and was ua'urally con
fused to find his mucilage placed upon
the supper table?
I am sure you "will readily see that
nothing short of unceasing devotion to
fancy picture albums, albums large and
small, of all sorts and shapes and size?,
together with a.collectioa of character
cards from all corners of the civili.ed
world and. in addition, an humble sub
mission to the inevitable in the, form of
cream chocolate bonbons thea. ar.d

FASHIONS IN GLOVES.
The Swede Mousquetalre to lie the Kator
Ite Till Summer.
The fashionable stvle in gloves
changes to a certaiu extent everv sea
son," remarked a large importer and
manufacturer of gloves, on Broadway,
and he stretched a number live kid to
lit a number eight hand.
What causes the changes?"
"The style of dressing has all to do
with it For instauce, this summer the
close-fitting, taiior-made suits for la
dies, from the length of the sleeve and
its i altern, require a five button glove.
The glace kid is the mo-t popular for
these suits. Six and eight-button gloves
were often cut down to live buttons to
meet the demand. As long as these
close-titting suits are worn the live
button gloves will he in vogue. It is
the rage in Paris, and New l'ork does
not. remain long behind that city of
fah!on."
"What style of glove will be worn by
the ladies this summer?"
"The old style, Swede mousquetaire.
will still be worn and in a great measure
supplant silk gloves. For dress occa
sions the Swede glove in light tau
shades will be worn almost exclusively.
It is rather straug.? that in the dead of
summer kid shonld be preferable to
silk. Well, the Swed'sh kid is light and
cool and more dressy than silk. The
most popular color is a subdued mouse
color.
"The most expensive glove is the
pink red. Indeed they are so high
priced that a very small and select
stock only is kept on hand. When the
famous pink parties came off during
last year the gloves were generally made
or ordered direct from Paris.
"A new style of glove which does not
seem to become popular is the three
button kid, with black Spanish lace at
the top. In the first place they are too
expensive and then the three buttons
are not enough to give them the style
of five buttous without the lace." .V

Putrefaction.
At a recent meeting of the Glasgow
Philosophical Society Prof. McKendriek
and Mr. J. J. Coleman gave an ac
count of some receut experiments on
the effect of low temperatures on the
jmlrefactive process and on vital phe
nomena. They found that the contin
ued exposure of putrescible fluids to a
temperature of one hundred and tweaty
degrees below zero did not prevent
putrefaction, showing that the micro
organisms causing putrefaction ave not
killed even by this extreme cold, a tem
perature probably lower than any pre
vailing in the Polar regions, so that
micro-organisms might exist even thare.
They hoped to continue their experi
ments with an 'atmosphere at a tem
perature of one hundred and fifty de-
oeiowzero. -ju. x .cvk.
AMATEUR NURSING.
A Foad and Fashionable Delusion Dis
pelled. Ah. me, how the truth does differ
from fict'on ! Doesn't the hero of novel
or play invariably get hurt, if at all,
in the way of a broken leg or something
that lays him up'in a nice, clean-manner
compatible with sentimentality?
Moreover, isn't it the rule that the
hero'ne, turned nurse, shall find her
employment in that capacity madecon

dear fellow's forehead and reading to

He is all the wnile making up

his benevolent head not long ago that
some of us girls ought to do amaetur
nursing in the public hospitals. The

that Loi.dtiu aristocratic maidens were
pract.cmg it. and he speedily had iix
enthusiastic volunteers. We went
J ro"gh with a preliminary training t

lioas of nurs ng. Then we rcportud
for duty. We were to form a kind of
relief gang, each girl to devote one
whole day in six to actual attendance
in the ward of a certain hospital. Our
services were accepted. We drew cut3
for turns, an I I h t the first day. Early
next morning I presented myself, in a
very plain but neatly-litted bib and
tucker, lo the house physician of the
institution I flattered myself that
I was prepared for any fate which
duty m'ghl impose upon me; but
down deep in ray heart of hearts I was
hopefully expectant of the broken
boned hero of the novel and the play
for a patVnt. What was my joy, there
fore, on lhiing assigned to a chai in ex
actly that line. What I mean is that
both his legs and one arm had been
fractured. Of course, he wasnr't pre
cisely the ideal thing. His brow wasn't
as hgh and white as the fictionist had
described, a stubble growth of beard
impaired whatever of beauty his face
might ordinar ly have po-sussed, and
they had stuck him fast in a structure of
splints and plasterofparis so that hisone
immovable position was not picturesque.
I was bound to make the best of him.
however, and at the lirst opportunity I
suggested that I might read the morn
ing paper to him.
Unless you want to drive me crazy,
young woman," he growled, unaware
that I was a volunteer, and not a hired
hospital attendant, "you'll kindly keep
your tongue quiet."
The shock was somethingdreadful. I
withdrew to a corner and wept. When
that was done with I returned to lind
hint asleep and snoring. But I made
on.' additional effort to realize my ex

quietly stroked his fevered brow. He
was wide evl in a minute.
For hea en's sake don't bang and
plow my head." he excla med; "lcan't
stand it."
I have only a vague recollection of
how the rest of the day wore wearily
away. One of the fondest of my delu
sions was dispelled; but when the next
day's volunteer and I came to compare
not s, and she related how she had been
allotted the care of an old bummer just
over an acute attack of delirium

rather fortunate. I'd had a broken

UNSHOD HORSES.
An Experiment Olten Tried, ami Alwajrt
Without Succe.
It seems somewhat strange that be
cause a few men try to save the expense
of shoeing that so many others should
think, against theirown common sense,
whether it is possible to use horses
without shoes or not, and many have
made their horses suffer pa'n trying the
experiment In nearly every part of
the world where horses are used the at
tempt has been made without success,
except iu countries like Algeria, where
the ground is sandy and soft. Not
withstanding the fact thai it has been
proved to all intents and purposes that
horses must be shod, people still try to
work them without shoes and make
the unfortunate animal that happens
to le the'r property suffer needless
pain. While horses suffer without
shoes, it is to be feared that with them
they often have to bear much pain
through the carelessness of the black
.siulhs. As a general ruje there is too
much iron put in the shoes, and, what
is worse, the foot is often made to fit
the shoe, instead of the dioe tilting the
foot While the foot is protected by
the shoes the joints have to bear the
concussion cau:ed by the hard metal
and the ground meetii at the force
they do. and promising young horses
often turn lame from navicular and
other d'seas -s. from this fact. A new
style of shoeing has been tried and
found to be a great improvement; but
the public, notwithstanding they know
the present style of shoeing is to some
extent wrong, are loth to try anything
new.
The wall of the foot is jeally the only
part that requires protection," and why
is it necessary to cover half of the foot
with iron? When a horse is turned out
into a pasture for any length of time a
careful owner will generally have tips
put on, or a narrow piece of iron put
half-way round the front of the hoof.
This prevents the wall from being
broken awa as it often is when the
ground is hard, and when the animal
is brought in again the foot is found to
be sound, the frog has become pliant
and cons'derable expansion is to be no
ticed at the heels. The frog, there is
no doubt was meant by nature to save
concussion and prevent slipping. Why
can not it be used on the hard and slip
pery roads? This has been tried, and
with great success, and the shoes that
are used last much longer than the ones
used at present and save the horse's
legs to a greater extent. The shoe is
let into the wall and round the sole of
the hoof to within two inches of fue
jiecl, and the frog is allowed to come in
contact with'the ground. It has been
used on both carriage and draught
horses in some of the largest cities in
the world, but has not become gener
ally known, owing to Jhc fact that
blacksmiths as a rule object to give up
their old style for a new one that they
fancy not so profitable and difficult to
learn.
The frog in its natural state is soft
and like rubber, and if tje knife is kept
away from it it will become of great
benefit on slippery roads and do away
with the most injurious things of all,
"corking" or "heels." Lameness is
often caused by contracted heels pro
duced by careless shoeing, and if more
owners would only go to the shoeing
shop and see that shoes are made to fit,
the noble animal that not only gives
theni pleasure, but also puts, money
into their pockets, would be saved
many weeks of unnecessarj' torture.

UNCLEArTLY HABITS.
A.U Annoyance to WhlU Farmers and
Dairvtiien Are Stttijici.
Among the annoyances which farm
el's and dairymen have, is that of un
cleauly hired help. Milk, uutler and
cheese are latterly so large an clement
on the farm, that both male and female
help are required to aid in milking.
And although it mat' seem unreason
able. et it is a difficult matter to get
all of such help to observe .strict habit
of cleanliness. Some will not even
wash their hands in the morning be
fore milking, nor clean the cows teats,
or brush the cow's side of looo dirt
or straw where tloy have b en lying
down. All of these things go more or
l's into the milk. The larger particles
may be strained out, but the essence of
the" dirt and filth is never removed,
but add to the ill flavor of the milk,
cream or butter. The writer has had
experience for yoars past with this k'nd
of trouble. Generally male help is the
worst in the practices of this kind,
and yet there arc enough samples of
dirty female help. So scarce is go.,d
help in some parts of thecouutry. girls
who will not wash their hands Iwfore
peeling or slicing potatoes for break
fast, nave to be tolerated, though
breakfast be eaten with a poor appetite.
And we have known hired hands go
lo the breakfast tabic right from the
stables, without washing, and if pro
tested with would leave employment
when the farmer was in a pinch for
help. Any man who has run a largo
farm-for twenty-five years, and has had
to board all of the hired help at his
own table, has experienced enough to
sour the sweetest nature. Thoe who
have had no experience can scarcely
bel eve the practices of filthine.s of
some hired help. And while they do
not believe, they are probably eatingat
each meal some of the products of these
same dim hands and filthy practices.
It is a line thing that all people do not
see all of the dirty processes which
t.elr food paeses through before it
reaches their tables. Whine there is
considerable milk and butter to be
handled, a neat and cleanly hired hand
is a perfect jewel on a farm or in a
dairy. Cau any one, devise a plan for
an improvement in this department of

A Flowery Name.

by nam.-, of rather limited education,
and whose memory is- rcmark.ab.ljr de

son. His wife, who is more intelligent
determined that the son anil heir should
have a Irish sounding name, and select
ed a verv beautiful one. When the-
child was presented to the clergyman

Another Queen's private ck" stence is
not without its characteristic features.
The name of the Queen of Xaplct
evokes a figure out of some romance ol
chivalry and legends. She appears to
our fancy as a heroine in scnsat.onal
adventures of love and warfare, some
times heading fantastic masquerades
anil mad revelry in the palace of the
Bourbons at Naples, at others defend
ing the last bulwarks of threatened
royalty on the bastions of Gaeta; visit
ing th" dying in the casemates under
the bombs of the Caribaldiaus. or
kneeling at the feet ot the Pope to re
ceive his blessing on "his dearly be
loved daughter." This is the portrait
lingering in our imagination. In reality
the Duchess de Castro: as she is
called now, is a qu'et, subdued,
silent woman, leading a life almost
monastical in its monotonous repose, n
an ordinary hotel of the Hue Bolssy
d' Anglais, in Paris, a street near the
Champs F.hsees and abutting on the
Plac de la Concorde, where another
Marie lost her life and her throne. She
has live I there through the long years
ot her eile after the cottage of St.
Mai.de was abandoned, in 1874, for the
Hotel u'ilemouf where the King and
Queen oceiipy ivo large apartments on
the first and second floors. The King
litis one secretary ami the Qucea one
lady in wa tiuT. A butler and four
men and four maids compose the whole
of their private stall' of servants. For
the rest they avail themselves of the
general resources of public establish
ments. The royal couple have re
nounced the pomps of palaces. Even
when isiting Mun'ch, the Qjen's na
t eeity. they put up uncerempn'ously
at the Hotel I'cllcvi.e the oua'ut old
hostel rv. with its h'ghly colored, al
most historical decorations.
During e.ght months of the year the
Duchess de Castro resides iu Paris.
The tenia nder of tjie time she spends
at the seas'd and in Bavaria. She
seems to eschew all splendors, all rep
nssentat on ei en th social arivantges
she might enjoy in a city where she
would be welcomed by so many illus
trious families, more or less related to
her. Almost her only amusement is
riding, e ther in the open air or in a
riding school. She owns large stables
in the Champs Klysces. wlfch she su
perintends herself, and in which she
has the warmest interest. She never
entertains. Hotel life is a sufficient
excuse for the non-giving of balls or
recept'ons. Her only v s'tors an; a
few old and tried friends, some travelers
from Naples, men and women, whose
names are wr.tten on the same pages of
past happiness and past sorrow. On Sat
urday only a few moreareadm'tted. but
their nuni b.-r is a ways limited. She is

The editor was a gentleman of cul

carefully analyzed the feelings I enter

stantially as follows: 1 love you! Will
you be mine? Reply by return" of post.'
And then apparently" he fell into absent-minded'
dreamy musing, for he
added: "Write only on one side of the
paper, plainly, and give real name and
address, not necessarily for publica

-It is said that the transposition of

took advantage of the error, and the
law of New Orleans was powerless to
prevent him. X. Y. Tribune..
