THE DAYS THAT ARE NO
Tears, tdle tears, I know not what they mean. Tears from the depth of some divine despair Rise in the heart and gather to the eyes In looking on the happy autumn fields And thinking of the days that are no more.
Fresh as the flrat beam glittering on a sail That brings oar friends np from the underworld, Sad as the last which reddens over one That rinks with all we love below the vergeSo* sad, so fresh, the days that are no more.
Ah, gad and strange as In dark summer dawns The earliest pipe of half awakened birds To dying ears when unto dying eyes The casement slowly grows a glimmering square— So sad, so strange, the days that are no more.
Dear as remembered kisses after 'death And sweet as thoao by hopeless fancy feigned On lips that are for others deep as love, Deep as first love and wild with all regret— Oh, death in life, the days that are no more! —Alfred Tennyson.
LA STl)FB TROOP.
Imaglno a plain stretching away to the cast for 300 miles—a plain so flat and sterile that Its very monotony is menacing to the north foothills covered with stunted pines, to the south a tongue of sandy desert, to the west a succession of barren ridges on which neither wolf nor buzzard can find a drop of water nor a morsel of food. Right there, 100 miles from the nearest pioneer hamlet, they built Fort Brown and garrisoned it with mon who thought of suicide day by day as they looked upon the dreariness. Thero were a skeleton company of infantry and a skeleton company of cavalry—the last of troop. There was a time in the history of these horsemen when numbered a full hundred men and when its officers were the proudest men in the regiment, but there are fatalities in atuiy life as well as olsewhere.
One day over in Green valley as troop rode gavly along 500 Indian warriors rose up in the drv gullies and emptied 40 saddles at the first volley. There was a court, of inquiry, and the captain resigned. Again ten troopers were sent out to convoy a wagon train, and tho Indians slaughtered the whole number. In the next three months five troopers deserted and three committed suicide. Ono afternoon tho first lieutenant of the troop rode out for a hunt, but had not gone a mile when ho was thrown from his horse and killed. Onco more, two troopers woro sent out to catch a horse which had broken loose and was cavorting around half a miSofrom the post. They were on foot, and as thoy ran they woro bitten by rattlesnakes on which they trod, and both were dead before sunset. Tho army said that troop was under a hoodoo, and tho remnant of tho company felt themselves almost outlawed. The day thoy rode into Fort Brown thoy numbered 87 men, and they were under tho temporary command of a second lieutenant. Captains and first lieutenants assigned to troop always fought off the day of joining, and some had pull enough nt Washington to havo tho assignment •countermanded. Thero is superstition in tho army as well as out of it. "Hero is our graveyard," whispered the men of tho troop as they caught sight of Fort Brown and its lonesome environment after their long rldo to reach it. They looked at tho foothills to the north, nt tho plain to the east, at tho desert to tho south and tho ridges to the west, and man turned to man and repeated: "Hero is our graveyard, the last of tho troop!"
If you know an unlucky man, you pity him, but you also avoid him. Tho infantry at Fort Brown could not avoid the unlucky troopers, but they pitied them and displayed no fraternal feeling. It was so from tho colonel down to tho last private. Wo smflo in derision at the idea of a hoodoo, and yet we do not like to rub elbows with people who are pursued with ill luck. Tho freshly graduated cadet knew nothing about tho hoodoo when bo was assigned to troop. With a boy's ambition and Impatience ho had hurried from West Point and holne into the wilds of tho far west to toko active service. There was no superstition about him. He heard of tho fatalities, ho saw tho dispirited look of tho remnant of the once gallant troop, he was niado to realize that ho was under a ban, as it were, but ho was not. disheartened.
Army records will tell you what happened at Fort Brown within a week after troop rode through the gates. The Infantry had been there for three months, but not an Indian had been seen. A corporal and throe men were sent to tho foothills after fuel, when they fell into an ambuscade and were cut off. The four troopers were mounted, and yet all were killed, while tho teamster made a wife escape on foots This was tho hoodoo again. That there might

hung himself in tho barracks that, night. Thus live inoro men were wiped off the rolls within a week, and tho troop reduced to 33.
Tho colonel at Fort Brown had received tho young ofiicer half in welcome, half irt pity. Ho knew tho history of troop, and ho realized that any connection with it
The tvlonel was a man of 4*. the lieutenant not yet i. The older officer looked out of ho window' upon tl*! sandy desert shimmering in the hot sun of July, and thrucl.t the long ride—the fight which nui»"t surely sake place. Then he lookixl al the and wondered how he won id carry MUSM-M In his first battle, whether lu would stand by him, if it would iv the last of trwp or tho turn of Its lurk He both a soldier and a man Asa soldier he desired fts g$v© soldier a chance. As man ho feared to fend out a b»y like that where It needed an experieoowi head.
You know the hoodoo." whimpered too lieutenant. "Thetroop t# slowly but »urc-
ly being wiped off the face of the earth. The men are objects of pity and sympathy and have almost become children. Let me go. I will either win a victory or it will be the last of the troop.''
The spirit of the old soldier was stirred. He had given many a young soldier opportunity to distinguish himself and but for the hoodoo he would not have hesitated in this case. Dispirited men, an officer who had .never seen a hostile redskin, a hoodoo which had walked at a company's heels like a ghost—it would simply be sending out more scalps for the war party. Ho shook his bead and decided that the scout must ride hard and last, but ride alone, and warn the pioneers of their danger. "I beg of you—we.all beg of you!" pleaded the lieutenant, with tears in his eyes. "Cavalry is needed to head those Indians off. If the settlers are wiped out, it will be said that you thought us cowards and were afraid to order us out." "There will be 32 of you and 100 of tho Indians," said the colonel. "But we will turn them back, sir wo will fight them!" "And if they are too many for you?" "I know the history of the troop, sir," said the boy in trembling tones. It has lost almost 70 men by desertion, suicide and skirmish. It has not lost a man in a real fight. They shall say of it in the next three days that it has won a fight or been wiped out. I would rather be lying dead there on the sands than to continue to serve in a troop which has not a single victory on its banners!" "You may go," said the colonel. "If it is a mistake, then God help mel Turn those Indians back, and I will recommend you for promotion. If they are too many for you"— "Then you will know it by tho buzzards hovering over tho battlefield!"
Half an hour later the 32 men of troop rode out of Fort Brown and headed across the desert to tho south. They were one of the arms of a Y. Tho apex was Panther gap. As they moved along one arm tho Indians woulit move along the other. Tho Indians had nearly a day's start, but their route was rougher and their pace would be slower. "There goes the last of troop," whispered every soldier left behind as the troopers rode away, and as they said it they instinctively looked up at tho flag as if expecting to see it at half mast.
The troopers had received that order without enthusiasm. They knew they were to make a hard ride and that a fight was probable, but they were neither exultant nor dt-spondent. Liko the Arabs, thoy shrugged their shoulders and whispered "Kismet." They were In tho hands of fate, and fate was likely to bo against them. With scarcely a farewell and with never a look over their shoulders they rodo away, tv. by two, and it was not until long after dark that tho boy officer at tho head drew rein and ordered the camp for the night. Before they slept he said to them: "Wo shall bo up and away at tho first signs of daylight. Men, listen to me. We are riding to reaoh Panther gap ahead of a war party of 100 Indians. Wo shall get thero first and beat them back or die fight ing. I have promised tho colonol this. You havo had ono disaster after another until your follow soldiers sneer and pity and wonder if cowardico is not at tho bottom of it. I do not believe it is I believe ev pry man of you to bo gamo, and wo will win a victory which shall placo tho old troop at tho front!"
A cheer burst from every man, the first oheering heard in Troop for years. Each man drew himself up more proudly, each man muttered to himself that if net IK he would die in his tracks. Thei^mind worked even as they slept, and when day light came the officer looked from face to face and wordered at tho change. There was an eagerness to make him glad, a personnel to mako him proud. Breaking camp as soon as it was light enough to see tho troop rode at a gallop until midforonoon and reached the gap ahead of the hostilcs. Only a short hour, though. Their horses had not yet ceased blowing when tlic advance of tho Indians was niado out. Panther gap was a narrow mad through Panther mountain, and its southern exu: debouched into Brown's valley, fivo miles away. Tho boy officer knew nothing war, but common sense and his veteran sergeant suggested a breastwork across the entrance to the gap. One was constructed of rooks and logs and stdues, and it was hardly finished before tho skirmishers of tho war party were firing upon it.
No man will over read what is called "Cunningham's Defense" without his pulse quickening. Ono hundred andtwen ty-three Indians pressed forward Against force of 33 troopers, commanded by a boy Three different times, once on horseback, the Indians charged right up to tlip breast work, but ench time were driven back with slaughter. The defenders did not escape death, however. When the last charge was beaten back, eight, of them woro stretched out on tho rock soil, and thero were but 34 to fall back for a mile and build another breastwork. This move was necessitated by tho Indians working up the sides of the mountain and securing a flank tiro. The second breastwork was evacuated next morning for tho same rea son. and a mile in the rear of it another was built. When this had to lie abandoned, only ten men were left alive.

Anecdotes of "Dlny."
In G. W. E. Russell's "Collections and Recollections" are these anecdotes of Disraeli:
The atmosphere of a court naturally suited Lord Beaconsfield, and be had a quaint trick of transferring the grandiose nomenclature of palaces to his own very modest domain of Hughenden. He called his simple drawing room the salon be styled his pond the lake he expatiated on the beauties of the terrace walks, the "Golden Gate" and the "German forest."
His style of entertaining was more showy than comfortable. Nothing could excel the grandeur of his state coach and powdered footman, but when the dessert camo up melting one of his friends exclaimed: "At last, my dear Dizzy, we have got something hot."
And in the days when he was chancellor of the exchequer some critical guest remarked of the soup that it was apparently made with deferred stock.
When Lady Beaconsfield died, he sent for his agent and said, "I desire that her ladyship's remains be borne to the grave by the tenants of the estate." Presently the agent came back, with a troubled countenance, and said, "I regret to say there are
not
to carry a coffin."
Firecrackers In China.
In China firecrackers can be purchased at a cost of 62 cents for 10,000, although the best quality commands twice this price. This is but little more than the actual cost of manufacture. The straw paper used is of the cheapest grade. The powder ic also of cheap and inferior quality, which probably accounts for so many "sizzers" in every pack.
Most of the firecrackers are made by women and children at their homes, and rapid workers are able to earn from 5 to 7 cents per day. An expert can earn 10 cents, while a novice receives only his board for the first four years. The wages paid in this trade are about the same as those paid the common laborer.
Besides being unhealthy, the work of making firecrackers is more or less dangerous, yet the hours of labor are from 6 a. in. to 11 p. m. seven days in the week.
Goose on Friday.
"You never heard about the time that Judge Egan gave that prince of birds, tho goose, a now place in natural history, I suppose?" said M. W. Fitzgerald to tho Philistine. "Well, a couple of years ago Judge Egan and Tom Conroy went over to lunch together one noon. 'What'll you have?' asked tho judge. 'It's Friday,' said Tom. 'Gjve me some fish.' "Judge Egan let his eye wander down the bill of fare. Ho saw that there was goose on the bill and the soul of him hungered for goose. He framed up a decision to make the punishment fit the crime. 'Goose,' said he. 'A goose is a bird that swims in the water. That's clear enough. W ai ter, bring me some goose 1'" —St Paul Globe.
A Distressing Outlook.
'."A little Cleveland girl was greatly worried by the misfortune of a favorite playmate. Tho latter injured her knee by a fstll, and for a time it was feared she might lose the limb. Happily this contingency was avoided, aud in time tfie sufferer completely recovered. But when the outlook was dark indeed the sympathetic girl burst in on her mamma one daytwith the following excited query: '..V:. ,v,v "Oh, mamtna, did you know it was Bella's vaccination leg that was hurted?"
No, mamma didn't know it. "Well, it is," cried the little sympathizer, "and, oh, mamma, just think, if they cut off her leg she'll have to be vaccinated all over again!"—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Won His Bet.
It is one of the proud boasts of Lord Charles Beresford that he can ride or drive anything. One day he may be seen tooling a four-in-hand, the next scurrying across country on a hunter or riding a bicycle. Perhaps the most curious ride Lord Charles ever had, however, was on a water cart, and thereby hangs a tale. He had wagered that he would dr^ve down Rotten row in broad daylight, and, as our readers know, vehicles are forbidden in the row. At the appointed time the other party to the wager, with a few friends, took up a position to see if Lord Charles would attempt the feat. While they waited a water cart came along, and some of the party were liberally sprinkled with none too clean water. The victims protested in forcible terms, when, to their unbounded astonishment, the oilskins of tho driver were pushed back, revealing the merry features of the popular sailor. "Hand over that hundred, old fellow!" he remarked calmly. Lord Charles had squared the driver of the water cart, and had won his wager.—London Answers.

Underwear.
A young German engineer whose nam*? is Herr "X." von der Werra had an amusing incident happen to him on a recent ocean voyage which will bear repeating and which he narrates himself with relish. On the steamer were several English ladies who were^evoted to whist and who frequently called upon Herr X. to join them in a friendly rubber. The young man does not care particularly for the game but, as the ladies in question had several charming girls under their wings, policy as well as politeness bade him join in the daily games. The young man suffered from a severe cold, and, in order to protect himself from the drafts, took occasion to wear a couple of heavy bicycle sweaters in addition to his ordinary clothing.

ly spoke to Herr X. "fundervear," as they pronounced it, about bis precautions against additional cold. He was not particularly well versed in English, and the pronunciation of his name puzzled him very much—in fact, he thought they were referring to his sweaters, so finally he blurted out: "Ladies, why do you call me Mr. Underwear? Is it because of these sweaters?" The reply was lost to posterity in the roar of laughter which caused the windows of the saloon to rattle.—Philadelphia Record.
Metallizing Wood.
A method of metallizing wood, one by which it becomes very solid and resistant and assumes the appearance of a true metallic mirror, is described in the Pari Monde with much detail. Briefly, the wood is first immersed for three or four days, as may be its degree of permeability, in a caustic alkaline lye, and thence passed immediately into a bath of hydrosulphite of calcium, to which is added, after 24 or 36 hours, concentrated solution of sulphur in caustic potash. The duration of this bath is about 49 hours, and its temperature is from 55 to 50 degrees. Finally the'wood is immersed for 80 or 40 hours in a hot solution of acetate of lead. The wood prepared in this manner and after having undergone a proper drying at a moderate temperature acquires under a burnisher of hard wood a polished surface and exhibits a very brilliant metallic luster—a luster still further increased in its attractiveness if the surface of the wood be rubbed thoroughly, in the first place, with a piece of lead, tin or zino and afterward be polished with a glass or porcelain burnisher.
How Slie Was Troubled. "I was troubled a great deal with soj^s breaking out on my hands and face. I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla and it purified my blood. I am now strong and hearty and recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla to everyone who needs a blood purifier." MRS. JANE BOXKL, Van Bureu, Indiaua.

A naval officer thus describes the realistic "All hands abandon ship drill: "Two minutes after tho word hns been passed every ship's boat has swung from its davits into the water, and a minute later every boat is thoroughly provisioned and watered. Within four minutes, and often in much quicker time, every man of the ship's company, from the commanding officer down, is occupying the station iu the boat called for by his ship's number, and then the command 'Sheer off!' is given. The boats are hauled away a couple of hundred feet from the deserted vessel, and she rides without a human soul aboard her, often, when the drill is gone through in midocean, in a sea that the landsman would account terrific. "Then the word'Board!' is passed, and within eight minutes at the most all hands are not only on board again, but every boat has been relashed to the davits, ail of tho provisions, water, instruments and other gear have buen removed, and the ship's company is in a fair way to get to sleep again.

Gladstone and Moses.
A correspondent of The British Weekly tells the following story relative to Mr. Gladstone: "1 was driving one autumn evening in a conveyance which in those days used to run trtim Lamlash to King's Cross (island of Arrau) when for any reason the late boat did not go round to Whiting bay. Sitting opposite me were two men who appeared to belong to the Paisley weaver class, and true to the traditions of that class they were busily di eussing politics. Presently one of them said, with much emphasis, 'There hasna been a lawgiver equal to Mr. Gladstone since the days o" Moses.' 'Moses! retorted the other. 'Moses got the law gieu tae him frae the Lord, but Mr. Gladstone maks laws oot o* his ain head!'

AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM.
Mrs. W. E. PAXTON, Youngtown, North Dakota, writes about her struggle to regain health after the birth of her little girl:
DEAB MRS. PINKHAM:—It is with pleasure that I add my testimony to your list, hoping that it may induce others to avail themselves of your valuable medicine. "After the birth of my little girl, three years ago, my health was very poor. I had leucorrhoea badly, and a terrible bearing-down pain which gradually grew worse, until I could do no work. Also had headache nearly all the time, and dizzy feelings. Menstruations were very profuse, appearing every two weeks. "I took medicine from a good doctor, but it seemed to do no good. I was becoming alarmed over my condition, when I read your advertisement in a pap6r. I sent at once for a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and after taking two-thirds of the bottle I felt so much better that I send for two more. After using three bottles I felt as strong and well as any one. "I think it is the best medicine for female weakness ever advertised, and recommend it to every lady I meet suffering from this trouble."
Maternity is a wonderful experience and many women approach it wholly unprepared. Childbirth under right conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinkham is freely offered to all expectant mothers, and her advice is beyond question the most valuable to be obtained. If Mrs. Paxton had written to Mrs. Pinkham before confinement she would have been saved much suffering. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass.
