A Moonlight Idyl.

*Twas beauteous moonlight, and the air was filled with a subdued, silvery splendor never the glare of day. It was a night that would make a poet trot out his lyre, and bring from it notes of the most enrapturing melody, if he didn’t break a string or get the contents of a slop-jar from an upper window. It was such a night as would make lovers delight to walk abroad and recline o» door steps, talking of love and the expense of matrimony, till the old man pops out his tUrbaned head and yells: “Young man, meander, and gal, you go to bed!” It was a good night for meditation and chicken roosts, and a poor one for the body-snatching branch of surgical knowledge. All nature, including the police,, was in peaceful repose, except reporters and the concert halls on State street. In a certain locality naught was heard save the braying of the faithful watchdog and the occasional yell of a streetcar driver, as he stirred up the mules, or whistled a belated huckster off the track, or, in plain, square-toed English, it was a beautiful moonlight night, and the dog in the front yard was howling as though the entire seven devils that left the woman were in him. The young wife tossed about nervously on her couch, but couldn’t get to sleep to save her. Of a sudden she would sit bolt upright in bed, rearrange her back-hair,* replace her night cap, give her elbows a twitch, like a soldier without armsf getting ready to double-quick it to quarters, and then she would flop back into a horizontal position, bury her nose in her pillow, and remain as motionless as a farm'er spelling out a hand-bill,for ah interval nearly as long as it would take the Pride of to get around the ring. Then she would flop over, give a kick, first with one foot, then the other; then with her elbow she would jab her husband in the ribs, and want to know if he was asleep. If he had been, the probability is that he was wide-awake at that instant. Then she would go back to the beginning and do it all over again, winding up by taking out her earrings an J putting them down on the floor, where she would be sure to step on them when she got up in the morning, giving diversity to the performance by changing the order, and now and then introducing a few variations with heels ahd elbows, and finally, away long in the small hours, when the early milkman was out cursing the cows and thawing out the pump, § she gave a flounder like a fish trying to swim on dryland, and put her tongue in motion, with words of honey and tones of vinegar. “Hubbj, dear,” with more elbow

jabbing. “What is it, love ?” replies tbe man of much patience. “I can’t get to sleep, dearest, to save my life;” and if the pas were lighted lie could see that her under lip is drooping. “Well, that’s too bad, lion. No more can I,” replies the man, with resignation in his voice. She remains silent for a couple of minutes. “I say, precious.” “What is it, darling?” “I’m, not asleep yet, love.” “There’s two of us awake, then, my dear,” says the man, with the veracity of exhortation. “I can’t think what makes that dreadful dog keqp up such a horrid howling, dear. I could go to sleep at once if he would only keep still and let me.” More drooping of the nether lip. “Did you feed him to-day, my pet ?” He—with newly awakened interest. “Yes, indeed, precious. He can’t be hungry; I gave him all he could eat.” She—with animation heightened by the joy of her thoughtfulness. ' “What did you give him, ('ailing?” “Why, dear, I gave him some of those boiled dumplings we had left from dinmer. But why do you jump out of bed so suddenly, Herbert, dear?” “Why, love, that’s what’s the matter with him, and we might as well get up and read, for we won’t get a wink of sleep to-night, unless they kill him before sun-up. You should have told me this, before, dear, and I would have went out and shot him, ended his misery, and got a good night’s rest. ” The endearing talk came to a sudden and unceremonious end. * The rest of it was hanging on a chair. t Without his gun. - I Maud 8. § Sarcasm for milking. —Chicago Ledger.

The Middlemen.

Thirty years ago, a young man who had acquired experience, knowledge, and reputation, and perhaps saved a couple of hundreds in the employment of a considerable mercantile or manufacturing firm, would start on his own account as a broker or other business intermediary, transacting the actual sales and purchases, mastering and conducting the details which his employers could afford to neglect, doing in liis department the work of a score or more of different firms, needing lit--116 capital but the confidence of his original employers and those with whom he had been brought into contact in their service. Commerce could afford liberal shrewdness, foresight, and diligence secured a minor but valuable share of the ample profits made in long roundabout passage between the original producer and the ultimate consumer. Nowaday the steps are much fewer; one intermediary after another has been suppressed. The manufacturer buys his materials, not perhaps from the actual producer, but from his factor. Orders are sent direct by telegraph, commissions are comparatively few and scanty, and the brokers who yet remain are compelled to secure business by services which only considerable capital can afford. The business even of large and longestablished firms is seriously reduced, the smaller one after another have disappeared or been absorbed; and the opportunities for new men with no capital but brains and- character, are yearly more and more closely contracted. The professions are crowded, competition has in many cases redncetTtheir remuneration, generally dividing the business among a greater number; and even where the. heads pf a profession make as much or more ihoney than ever

the juniors are compelled to wait longer arid work harder and later.—Macmillan’s Magazine.

“A Good Smoke.”

Where tha cigars came from is unknown. They were dark in hue and of vast .proportions—at least one inch in diameter. Five of these the mysterfSus passenger on a New York ferry boat had firmly lashed together with a bit of tape so as to cause a convergence of the lighted ends and a corresponding divergence of the ignited portions. All these were alight, and by dintiof that muscular effort known to vocalists as the ore rotundp, the performer was enabled to achieve the hitherto unclassified feat of smoking all five of the cigars at one and the same time. Possessing himself of a deck chair which had been precipitately vacated by a cigarette smoker on his approach, he seated himself near the quarter rail and soon became the center of an awe-stricken circle of observers. He treated with silent contempt the inquiries of the scientifically curious and the chaff of the irreverent, and all the while a cloud of smoke arose from his lips as from a smoldering volcano, and drifted down to leeward, mingling with similar clouds discharged from the smokestacks of incoming steamers. The captain of the boat came aft and stood at the edge of the hurricane deck, and looked on with manifest apprehension. The deck hands stood uneasily around in safe corners, and furtively provided themselves with such lose spars as they coul4 ; Jay hold of. The itinerant band of musicians, which travel back and forth on the boat, strove bravely to go through their Usual programme, but their playing was fitful and spiritless. And still the big man smoked on. All hands breathed easier when the boat backed into her berth at Tompkmsville, and the hdg man arose to go ashore. When the gang-plank was thrown ashore he cast the combined ends of his cigars into the sea, which sizzled and sent up a small whiff of steam as they struck its surface. Turpin-? to the expectant crowd, he remarked: “ Gentlemen, that was a very good smoke.” Then he went ashore and disappeared, walking a trifle unsteadily, no doubt from the effect of the nicotine, but still maintaining the dignified and decorous bearing that had marked his conduct during the entire trip.— New York Telegram.

The Battle of Marabia.

“Zuish!” fly a couple of rockets, followed by tbe sharp bang of a section of howitzers. Eagerly we watch the effect, but the rockets burst upon our own men, and, though the shells had been nicely timed, they seemed to make but little impression. Breaking from cover, the enemy sweeps with an inward curve right and left, his extreme flanks converging toward the opposing angles of our square. Now file firing commences from the front directly assailed, the men having been cautioned to aim. Nearer they swept, horse and foot closing on either flank, but as they come within our zone of fire they butted forward, bit to death. Tlio Nordenfeldts have now got to work, and within a few minutes the leading mob, for it was but that, fell in piles. But fanaticism knows no check. Thb chosen chiefs of the Melidi were there, followed by their own - chosen Jienchmen. * * * And what gallant men were they! Bight up to the cannon’s mouth: right up to the rifle muzzle, dauntless they rode, encouraging their followers with the promise of paradise to break our square. * * * Sheik after sheik went down with his banner, although the Mehdi had assured each that he was invulnerable, and their faithful but misguided followers fell in circles around their chiefs they blindly followed. —With Ricks Paxha indhe Soudan — Hon.

How Glass Eyes Wear Out.

The most perfect eyes are made in Thuringia, Geimany, and have a more natural appearance than any others. The iris is covered with silver and tbe blood vessels with gold, and, when properly inserted, they will move almost as readily as their natural companion. Of course much depends upon the condition of socket and the state of the muscles as left by the surgeon. Ou> greatest trouble is the matching of the eyes. You see, eyes wear out, their life being about a year or a little over, though occasionally I see one that has lasted a much longer time. The salt and alkaline solutions of the tear ducts, however, have an effect on the surface of the glass, and eventually roughen it, so that a new eye is necessary. Here’s one, you can seß how rough its surface is and how its colors are dimmed.— Philadelphia Frees interview.

The Rosewood Tree.

llosewood trees are found in South America and in the East Indies and neighboring isands. There are half a dozen kinds. The name is not taken from the color of thdwood, as is generally supposed, but by reason of a roselike fragrance which it possesses, when first cut: Some of the trees grow so large that planks four feet broad and ten feet in length can be cut from them. The broad planks are principally used to make tops for piano-fortes. The rosewood tree is remarkable for its beauty. Such is its value in manufactures as an oanamental wood that v some of the forests where it once grew abundantly have now scarcely a single specimen. New plantations have been set out, so that the supply will not be exhausted. ♦ - A minob incident of Kossuth's visit to this country in 1851 illustrates the way in which fashions in dress are sometimes originated. The eloquent Hungarian wore a soft felt hat, which became fashionable for young men. being reproduced in the shops under the name of the Kossuth hat. Until that time felt hats were almost unknown in this country, and in Europe, as Herbert Spencer has pointed out, they were worn only by a few political agitators. Science marches steadily forward with of progress, clearing up the mysteries 1 of yesterday, and bringing those of to-morrow dimly into view, but she stands palsied in all her efforts to make ont what it is that chews 08 the brim of a boy’s bat.— JSjt.

And That, Too.

A Boston man got bold of a Westerner in hopes of getting some consolation out of the look of affairs toward sundown, buts the man promptly replied: V “I tell you, things have justsqnatted out ou* way.” “Won’t wheat look up ft little* eh ?” “Not a look.” “Any new enterprises?” “Not so much as building a wjoodsked.” “But do the merchants complain?” “I should smile! They even hire folks to help ’em growl!” “Isn’t the railroad business a little more favorable ?” * “Yes, they manage to run trains, but that’s about all.” . “Well, there must be some business in the West which holds its own,” persisted the Bostonian. “How’s matrimony?” . “Deader’n Joseph’s old boots,” was the confidential answer. “A year ago you could have married anything and anybody and counted on G per' cent, dividends, but the general depression has flattened matrimony until a widow worth $20,000 has got to hunt a man down with a gun 1 !”— Wall Street News.

The Appomattox Apple Tree.

When I reached Appomattox. C. H. Leg had been in McClean’s house lor some time. All there is of the apple tree story is this : When I received a note from Lee asking to meet me at Appomattox, where he then was, I sent him a note saying I would be there as soon as possible. There was an old apple orchard on the hillside opposite McClean’s house, where the advance of Lee’s army had halted when the white flag was exhibited. A farm road ran diagonally up the hill through thd orchard. In places where ti'ees were close to the wheel tracks on the upper side of the road the roots had been cut oft’ by being continually run over. This left a low bank between the road and trees so cut. When the officer (Gen. O. E. Babcock) who bore my reply to Gen. Lee reached him he was seated on one of these enbankments, with his feet in the road and his back against the tree. He was then invited to pass through our lines to a house to await my arrival. —Gen. U. S. Grant.

Irascible Invalids.

Your peevish, fretful people are usually out of health. They lack vigor and digest ill. After all, though their peevishness is annoying, we should' not be inconsiderate of its cause —feeble health. Their stomachs need toning, their nerves require invigoration more than their foibles merit reproach. A course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitt;rs, when they are induced to try it. does them more good than all the sedatives aud opiates they are. fond of. taking for their “nerves.” Nervous they are, not in fancy alone, but In reality, and nervous they will remain until they invigorate. Sound digestion is surely a blessing worthseouring in. itself, and its value is enhanced by the fact that through it nerve quietude is attainable. The Bitters conquer, besides, dyspepsia, fever and ague. r heumatism, kidney and bladder troubles, and g ymptoms specially indicative of a disordered condition of the liver and bowels. Medical O ractitiouers commend and administer it. —? -*'•

The Progress of Poverty.

Historian McMaster does not believe in the popular myth about the better times they had in the “good.old days,” When asked for a Thanksgiving Day sentiment he wrote: “Every man to-day earns more money, wears better clothes, eats better food and of more kinds, lives in a more comfortable home, knows more of the world, holds broader views than he could possibly have done when the nineteenth century came in. ” Waterbunj Am eric an.

OF GREAT INTEREST

To Millions of Miserable Men end Women. ••I say, reporter, I know something that some of you newspaper men ought to investigate and publish for t,kip benefit of thousands of people that as 1 was a couple of months ago." ‘•Tell me about it, Mr. Hyzer, and perhaps I’ll go for it.’’ 1 “Well, I’ll tell you.' I’ve been troubled with rheumatism lor over ten years, and often had it so bad that it laid me up. I doctored ami doctored, and took alt kinds of remedies that people recommended, but I never found anything that would take the pains out of me till 1 tried Hops and Malt Bitters. I commenced taking them about six mouths ago, and, after taking about eight or ten bottles, they cured me right up. 1 never felt better in my life than I have for the last two months. Now, these bitters are made right here on Lamed street, and I think the people ought to know more about them. They will knock rheumatism, and I know it, and they are splendid for the kidneys, for mine were all out of order, and now they are all right.” The Speaker was Mr. Jacob Hyzer, of the American Express Company, and his suggestion was made in such dead earnest that the reporter resolved to go around and see what more could be learned about Hops aud Malt Bitters. These bitters are manufactured in a fine four-story brick block at 13t» West Lamed street, where the employes were found busily engaged in disposing of orders from wholesale druggists. The bitte s are recommended for dyspepsia, liver and kidney compla nts and rheumatism and are recognized as the most thorough blood purifierever produced. The Hops and Malt Bitters Company has liundredsof testimonials from prominent and Well-kn Own men of influence and veracity, among whom are many ministers, who eulogize Hops and Malt Bitters as a tonic preparation without parallel in their, experience. When Mr. Hyzer's case was mentioned our reporter was informed, that there were five cases within a square of the .office of men cured of rheumatism and dyspepsia and women relieved of the miseries peculiar to their sex. The formula of these bitters embra-es hops as an appetizer and tonic; mait as a highly concentrated nutritious element; cascara, or buckthorn bark, as a laxative; dandelion as the finest liver regulator in nature’s pharmacopoeia and an acknowledged derangements of the kidneys, spleen. End urinary organs; buchu, the most popular diuretic in the world; great and only autidote tomerourial poison; mandrake, a liver alterative without a peer, and aromatics to give the compound a palatable and pungent flavor, and to stimulate the stomach. Those familiar with these several ingredients wifi readily perceive that Hops and Malt Blttees contain the elements for healing many of the most aggravating chronic aUings with which men and women suffer. Every wholesale druggist in the West handles these bitters, though they are but a year old, and the style of all their guarantee to retailers is similar to the following from all of the prominent houses in the West: To the Trade and Consumer: We guarantee “Hops and Malt Bitters" to be equal, if not superior, to any other .Bitters in the market.

On the appearance of the disease, the father advised the son to write to Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout,N. Y., who, he said, would tell him what to do. Dr. Kennedy replied, suggesting the use of “Kennedy's Favorite Remedy,” which had worked so successfully in the father’s c ise. Mr. Hicks, who had been assured by the local physicians ‘thnt they could do nothing more for him, tried “Favorite Remedy” at a venture. After two weeks’ use of it he passed a stone 2 of an inch long and of the thickness of a pipe-stem. Since then he has had no symptoms of the return of the trouble. Here is a sick man healed. What better results could have been expected? What greater benefit could medical science confer? The end was gained; that is surely enough.
