T•HE RAVEN
BY E. OE.
Onoo upon a Miduighfdreary, while s ponder'd, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,—
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there oame a tapping,
As 01.6010one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber -door.
" 'Tie seine visitor," I mutter'd, "tapping at my ohamber-door,—
Only this, and nothing more."
AhI dietinotly I remember, it was in the bleak December,
And eaoh separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly;I wish'd the morrow: vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow,—sorrow for the lost Lenore;
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore,
Nameless here forevermore.
And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thriil'd me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating,
" 'Tie some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber-door,—
Some late visitor, entreating entrance eft my ohamber-door ;
This it is, and nothing more."
Presently my soul grew etronger: hesitating then no longer
"Sir," said' I, "or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore ;
But the fact is, I was napping, and so gently you oame rapping,
And so faintly you oame tapping, tapping at my ohamber-door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you;"—here I open'd wide the door ;—
parkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into I at darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared io dream before;
But the silepce.wae.unbroken, and the stillness gave no'token,
And the only -word there spoken was the whisper'd word "Lenore?"
This I whisper'd, and an echo murmur'd back the word "Lenore!"
Merely this, and nothing more.
•
Back into the ohamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping, something louder than before.
"Surely," said I, "surely that is something et my window -lattice
Let me see, then, what thereat ie, and this mystery explore,—
Let my heart be still a moment, and this mystery explore:—
'Tis the wind, and nothing more."
Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flatter,
In there etepp'd a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he, not, a minute stopp'd or stay'd he,
But, with mien of lord or lady, perch'd above my chamber -door;
Perch'd upon a bast of Pallas just above my chamber-door;—
Perch'd, and sat, and nothing more.
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
"Though thy creat be shorn and shaven, thou," I said, "art sure no craven,
Ghastly, grim, and ancient Raven, wandering from the Nightly shore;—
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore."
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
Mnoh I marvell'd this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning, little relevancy bore;
For we can not help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was biess'd with seeing bird above his chamber-door,—
Bird or beaet upon the sculptured bust above hie chamber -door,
With such name as "Nevermore."
But the Raven, sitting lonely on that placid bast, epoke only
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he utter'd, not a feather then he flntter'd,
Till I sce.reely more than mutter'd, "Other friends have flown before:
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before."
Then the bird said, "Nevermore."
Startled at the stillness broken -by reply so aptly spoken,
"Doubtless," said I,'"what it utters is its only stook and store,'
Caught from;some_unhappymaster, whom unmerciful Disaster
Foilow'd fast, and follow'd faster, till his songs one burden bore,—
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore,
Of-eNever—Nevermore.' "
But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheei'd a cushion'd seat in front of bird, and bust, and door,
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what thiominous bird of and ominous birdeof What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt,
yore—
Meant in croaking "Nevermore."
This .1 sat engaged iia guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl, whose fiery eyes now burn'd into my bosom's core:
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp -light gloated o'er;
But whose velvet violet lining, with the lamplight gloating o'er,
She shall press—eh! nevermore.
Then, methonght, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by seraphim, whose footfalls tinkled on the tufted floor.Ifirf rn
"Wretch," I cried, "thy God hath lent thee—by these angels hethath
sent thee—
Respite, respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, Oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
"Prophet!" said I, "thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!
Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest toss'd thee here ashore,
Desolate, yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted,
On this home by Horror haunted,—tell me truly, I implore,
Is there—is there balm in Gilead? tell me—tell me, I implore!"
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
'Prophet!" said I, "thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that heaven that bends above ne, by that God we both adore,
Tell this sons, with sorrow laden, if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden, whom the angels name Lenore,—
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels name Lenore."
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
"Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!" I shriek'd, upetarting,—
"•Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore I
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken !
Leave my loneliness unbroken!—quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!"
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, stili is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallis, just above my chamber -door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that ie dreaming,
And the lamp -light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor :
And my Boal from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted—Nrvs'nmoas!

best results from their use.
For Stdrnach
and liver troubles. and for the cure of
headache Caused by these derangements,
Ayer's Pills cannot be equaled. When
my friends ask me what is the beat
remedy for disorders of the stomach,

my invariable answer is Ayer's Pills
Taken in season they will break up

ARMLESS, Yt~T A PAINTER.

.
When a siert yeithout Arnie becomes en
artlet, there is ooAsilierable evidence that
he has. a streng e141 natural inolination
for the career. This is the, ease el Bart-
ram Hiles, a yl(ung Enlglshman, callose
pictures have - been on exhibition In Len- ..,
don at I`io, 175 Picoadi)ly.
Mr. Hiles is not the only armless artist
of merit now living. Charles Fehr, of
Antwerp, has long been known as an ex-
oellent painter.
Mr. Fein wields the brush with hie
toes, while Mr, Hiles uses his mouth.
The Englishman lest his awns at the ago
of eight, in ebstrielt ear aooident; the Bel-
gian was born armless. The former is
only twenty-otght years old, and is prin-
oipally distinguished as a landscape
painter; the latter is sixty-four, and is a
figure painter.
Mr. Hiles combines a vast amount of
perseverance) and cheerfulness with. unmis-
takable artistic ability. Only two years
after his accident, he had so far mastered
the control of his' pencil held in his mouth
that he was placed 1n the flret-olass divis-
ion .of the seoond grade of tree -hand draw-
ing of the National School at Bristol, and
he was only sixteen when he exhibited a
work,—a study of a sycamore leaf—at the
local Academy of Pictures.
For the next few years he studied, both
in Bristol and in Paris, so assiduously
and successfully that in 1840 he carried
away a scholarship, open to the competi-
tion of the United Kingdom, of a nundred
guineas, and tunable for two years, offer-
ed by the Nattopal Art Department of
South Kensington.
Since then farther honors have been
won by him on equal terms with other
competitors. A design for a fan secured
a bronze medal, and a design for a finger -
plate intended to be executed in reponse°
work also received a similar distinction.
A charming design for a water -jug and
ewer, painted in five hours, won him a
silver medal lest year at South Kensing-
ton, where his skill in modelling day
with his lips was rewarded by his being
classed in the first division.
Among the oolleotion now being exhib-
ited in Piccadilly several of these prize
designs may be seen. An effective sunset
at Venioe was hung In thb gallery of the
Royal Soolety of British Artists, while a
frieze was accepted, though crowded out,
by the 'committee of the Royal Academy
this year.
Mr. Hiles is a cheery, good-looking and
intelligent young man. He seems to
suffer but little inconvenience on accoutre
of his misfortune. His lips appear to
serve him nearly as efficiently as do onr
hands. At the request of a visitor he took
up a pen in his mouth and wrote his
signature. When a cigarette was offered
him he placed it on the edge of the table,
took a match out of a box, and held it
to the point of the cigarette, when. ignit-
ed, Mr. Hiles eroeeoded to smoke,
Japanese ' omen never use chairs; they
sit on the floor, so when sewing machines
appeared in the land of the chrysanthe-
mum it was a problem as to how they
were to be worked. A certain Madame
Yoshawari solved the problem by cut-
ting a hole in the floor big enough for the
machine to drop into, then the worker
would sit upon the edge, making her lit -
tie bare feet send the pedals flying while
the machine rested on the earth below.
Nothing prettier has ever been designed
for little folks' frocks than the bright -
hued plaids, sometimes in velvet, some-
times in woolen goods, which will be the
fad of the season. Trim them daintily
with cream guipure lace and you will
find they are the sweetest creations.
Somebody has discovered that hi bibli-
cal times women werb quite as chary
about telling their age et they are to -day,
or in spite of all the women whose gtoryi.;
Is told in scripture, Sarah ie the only
one whose age is mentioned.
Women are gradually winning recogni-
tion in China. Twenty years ago you
