IWhlcb flash below us lustrous spears, tridents and burnished bars. While other stars look up at us from out that nether sky. As brilliant and as far away as those which shine on high. Thus we between two firmaments suspend* ed come and go. Absorbing that delight of flight which gulls and eagles know. The silvery lights take forms grotesque in eddies, dents and swirls. And seem like silver circlets set with iridescent pearls. Meantime the diamond spray Its shower of sparkling gems bestows. The wealth profuse of purest* test each child of Nature knows. Beneath our prow the babbling waves indulge in many a kiss. Which lovers promptly imitate on such a night as this. While other waters dimple deep and leap with laughing voice To catch the star beams and o*er each with f gurgling lisp rejoice. Anon some fish in happy play springs up with leap and splash. And round him phosphorescent gems in rarest beauty flash. Near by is heard the organ tones of surges on the beach. With grand effects in undertones no music masters teach. As swirl and sweep of mighty waves make watery hills and vales. We in our cradle of the deep are rocked by scented gales. Above, below and all around by countless marvels rimmed. Such as no sou! hath fully grasped or greatest artist limmed. Two skies with happy wayfarers suspended thus between. While water mirrors measureless reflect the mighty scene Which God and Nature at their best together planned and wrought; Each atom and each mightiest wave a wellembodied thought. In such a place earth's wonderland and roarYel kingdom lies. Where human beings soar like birds midway between two skies. With God above and God below and His wdrks all around. And in each marvel thus revealed His mysteries profound. I EDGAR JONES.

A STILL, STUBBORN RIND. BY EUlifl HIGGINSON. { •COttMOMMMttlStMttM 411UI Y oh!" said Mrs. Eweus. “Here Ifl it's nine o’clock an' all them elo Cs are a-svvitchin’ out on that clo'csline yet, an' that girl still out a-drivin' calves to pastur’! It didn't take me two mortal hours to drive calves to pastur' when I was a girl. 1 can't see where in the world she ran have gone to.” She went out on the back {torch and lifted her voice shrilly—“Min-dee! Miu-d-e-e!” “Yes, mother.” A young girl came around the corner if the house, ltoth her hands were filled with great gulden buttercups. Mrs. Ewrns started. “Oh.” she said, “there you are! Well, it's high time. I’d like to know what kep* you two hours a-drivin* calves to pastur,’ miss?” “1 was gathering buttercups.” The girl went up the steps slowly. There was a flush on her face that spread gradually dow:u to her throat. f>he was nut prettv. but there was som'e1tbing in her blue eves that attracted even strangers. “Oh, you was u-getherin’ butacups, was you?" Mrs. Evvens' look was withering. “Well, how often have 1 told you to not go a-trollopin' around wastin’ your time; an’ all them yeste-day's clo'es out on that line yet?" Mindwell went into the kitchen. Her lips were trembling. She bunched her flowers hastily into an old blue pitcher. Then she tied a gingham aprou around her slender waist, ami going to the sink iti one corner commenced washing dishes. Her mot her followed her. "Oh, now. look at you! Soakin' the soap all t© pieces in the dish water! Ain’t 1 told you 50 times if I have once not to lay your soup in the dishpati an' pour hot water on it? What ails you?’* “Nothing, mother.”

That's the Kwcns n-stickin’ outin you. You didn't git any o’ that from me. I ain't one o’ them still, stubborn kinds!” She went to the door to shake her aprou at a chicken that had stepped on her white porch, and was standing on one foot, watching her in amazement. Mindwell lifted her head w ith an air of relief. The plate she was wiping slipped through her fingers and fell on the floor with a crash. “Well, if 1 ever! Just look at your carelessness! If it ain’t one o’ my beat blue chiny plates. One o* them the minister’s wife give me! I never see jour beat fer break in’ things.” Mindwell gathered up the pieces with shak* lug fingers. The plates were dear to her. Her eyes filled with tears. Two or three crept out on her lashes. “Oh, cry!” said Mrs. Kweus contemptuously. “As If cryin* would put that plate back in my beat chiny set! I wish you'd do your cryin* before you break ,«p things instid o’ after! Ifebbe that ■would do some good.** j Mrs. Ewens stopped abruptly. With • change of countenance she leaned forward to look through the open door. “Why, where on earth can that org’n be go in* tor She moved along step by step to keep it in view. “Mindy, who do you ’spoae has got g new org’n r v Bar tona was pleasant ami coufiden

She was laying the pieces of China away tenderly. “Why, if my name's Ewena, it’s turnin’ into Mis’ Parmer’s gate!** She closed the door partially. “I don’t want she should ketch me watchin’. It’s, gone up' to the door an stopped, an’ she’s come out a-girin’ orders. There’s Tildey come out too. Lanky thing! As if she’d ever learn playin’! Mindy!" “Yea, mother." “Do you hear what I’m a-sayin’T Where’d they git the money fer a new org’n? They owe a debt at the post office store, and they ain’t sold their potatoes yet. .Where’d they git their money at?” “Oh, I don’t know,” said Mindwell, wearily. “You don’t know? No, you never do know anything about your neighbors. All you ever know is to go a-getherin’ butacups or dandylines, with all them clo’es a-switchin every which way fer Sunday! You ain’t worth your keep lately, a-writin’ stories fer magazines, an’ nine out o* ten of ’em the editors won’t have.” The girl’s face grew scarlet. A lump came into her throat, but she held it there silently. She took the clothesbasket from the pantry and went out. Her lips were set together in a way her mother called stubborn. Mrs. Ewens sat down by the table. “Mercy,” she said, leaning her cheek on her thin knuckles. “The look in that girl’s face scares me sometimes. 1 wish 1 hadn’t twitted her about the stories, but she does rile a body so. If she'd talk back I’d git over my mad sooner, but she won’t. I wish 1 hadn’t said that. Land knows I*m proud enough when the editors do take one o’ her stories, an’ go carryin’ it around showin’ it to the neighbors. I'd ort to be ashamed. An* 1 am. Well, Pll make a peach cobbler fer dinner, with some nutmeg dip; she's awful fond o’ that.” Mindwell gathered the clothes from the line and carried them to the porch. “You'd best sprinkle 'em out there in the cool. Miudy.” said her mother, in a conciliatory tone. “You can use the bench. I’m makin' a peach cobbler au’ some nutmeg dip on the table.” The girl turned her head and looked away to the mountains. Her eyes blurred w ith sudden tears at the unex[>eotedly kind tone. Below the hill on which they lived the blue waters of Puget sound ribbed to the ocean. In the golden distance Seattle sat upon her sloping hills, her towers and spires aflame in the morning light, and all her w indow s shining like brass. Qu all sides the heavily-timbered hills swelled upward. folded in purple haze, to the chains of noble mountains that reach around Puget sound glistening like jwarls. “There come* Mis’ Cav'niss," observed Mrs. Ewens. “She comes over so often, rain or shine. What’s she got on her head? A new spring sundown? Well, she’s a-juish in’ the season.” Mrs. Ewena moved stiffly to the edge of the porch. “Why. Mis' Cav'niss!” she exclaimed. “You ain't been here fer an age. Come right in.” “No, 1 can't stop.” Mrs. Cavintss laughed; little wrinkles ran up each side of her t hi it nose. "The postmaster asked me if 1 was coming up by here to

She grew pale as she read. It was a long letter. She read it through twice, her lipa moving as she read it the second time and a blur thickening over her eyes. Then she flung her arms dow n on the bench and her head upon them, and burst into a very (Mission of sobbing. “Why—whatever!” said Mrs. Ewens, solemnly. “I never see you take on that way. Where’s your story at? Did you go an’ fergit to put in stamps?” She waited awhile, watching the girl Impatiently. “Why don’t you answer me?” she cried. “Where’s your tongue gone to all of a suddent, aigh?” “Oh, mother!” Mindwell jumped up and ran to her mother. She threw her aims around the withered throat and kissed the hard old cheek. “Oh. mother, it’s from the editor of that Boston magazine. He’s taken the story and sent me $30, mother! And he says 1 have great talent, but that I need education and experience that I can’t get here. And if I can afford it he wants me to go to Boston and study. He’ll give me work on his magazine to pay my expenses—but there are the traveling expenses and the private tutor—” "Tooter! What do you want of a tooter? Didn’t you learn all they could teach you at the deestrict school?” Mrs. Ewens went into the kitchen and got down stiffly on one knee before the . _ , . ^

well followed her. “We can afford it, can’t we? I’ll go *tourist’ and take my lunch, Til study so hard, mother.” “What do you want to study fer? If your edjucation wa’n’t good they wouldn’t take your stories, I reckon.” “It might be better, mother. I need experience, too—and I can’t get it here.” “Well, I got a-plenty of it,” said Mrs, Ewens, with unconscious pathos, “an* I’ve lived here ’most all my life.” She got up slowly and stood looking at the girl. Her face was gray as ashes. “Do you want I should give you money to go an’ leave me in my old age an* my ploorisy? You can hare it an’ go—if you’re in earnest.” “Oh!” It was a cry of pain. “It’s only for a year. Think what it means! Mother, if you had your life to live over, | and got a chance to get a good educa- j tion—” She stopped. Her mother’s face had quivered—that stony old face that never ! betrayed emotion! None know so well as they who have no education what it i is to go through life without it. Mrs. Ewens went into the pantry and shut the door. In trivial, every-day I affairs she was a small-minded, nagging ] woman; in large affairs she now proved i herself great. Her hard life had taught J her bitter self-control when it came to j real sorrow. She had not had time for | the luxury of grief. When she came out of the pantry her face settled into its usual lines. She i took the cobbler from the oven. "Mindy,” she said, “you can have the money. I'd just as soon you'd go. You had best git them clo'es sprinkled. This j cobbler's all done.” » It was a month later. Mindwell hurried along the little path to the sta- i tion. Her trunk had gone by boat to Seattle, where she was to get her I I ticket to Boston. Her mother had said good-by without j I any emotion. Tears had sprung to ; Mindweirs eyes, but the old woman had said only: “Now, don't go to actin’ j the dunce!” But how very old and gray she had j J looked! And how’ bent! Mindwell had never noticed it before. The ache of ; j it was in. her heart now. She saw the I long, lonely year stretching drearily j j before her mother.

The train was an hour late. She walked on the little platform. The ache sank deeper. She could not get it out of her heart. A sob came into her throat. “I’ll run back and kiss her again," she whispered. Mrsl Evens was sitting by the kitchen table. Her head was bowed upon her arms. The hearth was unbrushed. The dishes were piled, unwashed, in the sink. Mind well came softly to the door and stood there. “Oh, Lord. Lord,” her mother was saying, “I ain’t never prayed any. so I orter be ashamed to now, when I'm in such trouble. But I must talk to somebody, Lord, an* there’s nobody to bother now but you. You’ll fergive me if I ain’t right. My old heart’s broke. My only child has gone an’ left me. I don’t blame her. I’ve been cross an’ ugly, an’ I’ve nagged at her. I’ve struggled ag'in my temper. A vbcjdv never gits any credit fer the times they conquer their temper, but they get a-plenty o' blame fer the time it conquers them. But you know how I loved her. Lord, an’ how proud 1 was o’ her. * I had to work in other people's kitchens when I was a girl; an* sence I got her I’ve slaved an’ saved, so she’d never have to do that. A whole year. Lord! An’ me so old, an’ sick sc much with the ploorisy—” Mindwell slipped away, shaken to the soul. She went around the house and sat down on the front steps. She leaned her face within her hands and sat there for a long, long time. At last she stood up slowly, trembling. Her face was white. Her eyes went to the silent, lonely mountains. A moment longer the struggle lasted. Then something that was beautiful shone in the girl’s face. The exaltation of one who has conquered came into het eyes. * When the train came Mrs. Ewens went to the door and sickled her hand above her dim eyes to git a last glimpse of the girl. Her face was quivering. At that moment Mindwell stepped {upon the porch. Her mother started. “Fer pity’s sake!” she exclaimed. Her face changed. “Did von go an’ git left?”

“No, mother. I didn t- get left, but I*m not going.’* “You ain’t a-goin’?’’ She spoke harshly, ashamed of her display of emotion. “Why ain’t you a-goin'?" “I’Te changed my mind.” The exaltation was still in her eyes. “I’ve been thinking, mother. I guess if there’s anything in me we’ll find it out right here just as well as in Boston. And if there isn’t, there’s no use wasting my time going to Boston. Maybe Til get some education here that I couldn’t get there, anyhow.” “My-oh! I never see your beat! You’re just like your father, a-changin’ like a water-sign, fer all you’re one o* them still, stubborn kinds! Well, if you ain’t a-goin’, hurry on your old clo’es. It’s high time them calves waa druv to pastur’!” Twenty minutes later Mindwell waa following the calves down the path through the firs. “Maybe the worM won’t think as much of me as it would if I had a Ana education,” she said, setting, her Up* together, “but I guess I’ll think mors j of myself."—Ladies’ Home Journal.

EABL8 OF ELECTRA Preparing tor the Gomlnff of Their Queen. Bctoeme tor the Grand F»|«ut la Co» plete—It Will Be the First of Its Kind Ever Attempted In America—Plana for the Trolley Floats. In the parade that trill celebrate her visit to St Louis, Queen Electro, Goddess of Light and Queen of the Electric Spark, has commanded that the subject to be illustrated in honor of her coming be to some extent set forth, in order that benighte.l earthlings be given opportunity to study and be prepared to appreciate that grand event. To that end. therefore, her mundane representative has decided, because of this command as well also as that the pageant is to take a new line of departure into that held so little explored -elentricity—to give the subject to be presented as well as some idea of its treatment, as here set forth. “The Planets and Constellations.” the subject chosen. is best adapted to illustrate the worship of Electra. Goddess of Light and Queen of the Electric Spark. Every float of the pageant will be thrown into the field of a strong electric light by the footlights surrounding the lower edge of the floats. The power will be taken from the wire by troney. and running over the street car line will present a scene of glory. •Sjfek

FARM AND GARDEN. GOOD PIG TROUGH& One -Which, It bCtaUaci, Caaca Tw|i Hear Perfeettoa. There are a great variety of devices for pig troughs. It is difficult to so construct one as to prevent his pig-ship from getting his feet into it and rooting out a lot of his food onto the ground. The following engraving represents one which, if properly constructed, comes very near perfection. A common flaring trough is made, the end of which has been removed, as shown in the engraving. The width of bottom at A B, Fig. 1, is 12 inches, with sides six inches wide, which makes the trough nearly four inches deep. A strip five inches wide, C, is set up lengthwise centrally and toe-nailed to the bottom. A hopper is constructed with a four-inch opening at E, flaring to ten inches at F. To hold all the parts securely in place, boards are cut to fit between the sides of the hopper, and with suitable slot to embrace the dividing board C. The shape of this board is shown in

§PLKNDID PIG TROUGH. Fig. 2. These may be inserted every two or three feet. Slots are securely fastened as shown at S S S, and may be about eight inches apart. By this means the pigs are precluded from getting into the trough. They can only poke their noses into it, and this is all that is needed. This trough gives feeding space on both sides. The slops are easily distributed through the hopper. The construction may be cheapened by using only oue board for each side of hopper instead of two, as shown.—G. Waters in St. Louis Journal of Agriculture. IMPROVING THE FLOCK. Whx Some Attempts la This Dlrce* \ tion Result Disastrously. Quite often a farmer having a dock of common stock that is well acclimated and free from disease, but not very profitable, disposes' of them and secures pure-bred fowls, which he gives no better care. Having been improved and made more profitable, partly by receiving excellent food and care, better than the farmer is accustomed to give, the improved fowls do not thrive. Possibly they are from high scoring fancy stock that has been weakened by being over-shown and inbred. Under his management they may be no more profitable than hiseomicon stock, while they are more sensitive to exposure and susceptible to disease. He has about as much use for them us a man without a hot-house to put~them in has for hot-house plants. This man may become prejudiced against pure-bred fowls. Had he secured suitable farm-reared pure-bred birds from stock that had not been bred for exhibition points for several years, and at the same time had taken more pains to keep the hen house clean, free from lice, and to provide better food and enough of it, he would doubtless have secured a greater profit and have been gratified with the results. Proper food, says Samuel Cushman, has much to do with improving a breed, and improved characteristics cannot be retained unless sustained by it. Common scrubs endure privation and exposure best, and it is not, therefore, always wise to discard them. It may be difficult to secure really good birds for useful purposes.—Western Plowman.

FACTS FOR FARMERS. Flax is very exhaustive to the soil. Insure your buildings against eycloues. Shallow cultivation of corn should be the rule. Drainage will greatly increase the value of wet ground. Roots cannot penetrate a subsoil th*t is as hard as a stone. The silo will enable the farmer to keep more cows profitabFf. In sections where cyclones are likely, a storm cave shows wisdom. Spare the harrow in the early stages of corn growth and spoil the crop. The hired man should be a gentleman among the children in the home. In sections outside the corn belt corn can often be profitably grown for the silo. Hay caps are a good investment. They will in a wet season pay for themselves Tery quickly. We do not like the barbed wire fence and would not have one, while other fencing can be had. When the surface bakes after a rain, a tight harrow should be used, whether the crop is up or not. Hailstorms are likely anywhere, and insurance against them is as necessary as insurance against fire. Eighty acres, intensively cultivated are better than 160 acres under the too often loose system of farming.—Western Plowman.

Shrtf Improve tke Soil. The sheep la unlike the hog in its choice of food. It will nat take up feed out of filth or liTe on flesh. It will eat weeds of almost any kind, and will peel an apple tree If given an opportunity. The excuse for not keeping a few sheep that it costa so much for fencing, is. to say the least, a flimsy one. Barb wire or woven fence can be had for a very reasonable amount. Four wires will restrain sheep if the fence be put up in the proper manner, although five wires are better, and this number is all that is required to make a good fence. Sheep bite somewhat doner than cattle, bnt they improve tha land.—Western Plowman.
