To the couutries where the rainbow
Awl the glorious sunsets be,

Where's the road that she must travel
To return to 'Yesterday ?
For. you see, she's unfamiliar

What its stroege, mysterious sign -posts
Tell of woys and where they keel,
And her heart upbraids her sorely,
Though she dio n rt moan to SIOY

And. abandoned Yesterday.
For she loft a deal neglectvd
That she really should have done,
And she fears she's lost some favors
That ehe fairly might have won
So .ehe'cl Ilke to turn her backward
To retrieve them if she may—
Will aot some one kindly tell her

gloves over Ins large fluffy fingers "Jack

languidly, "for he has lots of money,
people say,"

• and will make his mark yet, there Is no
doubt about then, and he may be able to
help us out of our miserable debts," said
Mr. Merivale.
• Kate had many admirers, but Jack
Hoburton was the favorite. Jack Was a
steady young man, good looking, well
educated and the posseasor of a neat egg
that in the min& of Kate's worldly par-
ents wouln be sure to hatch unbounded
wealth.
The parents were gracious and paved the
way to an excellent understanding between
the young people, so the next winter, when
Kate went away to boarding school and
Jack went to seek hie fortune id the great
west matters were eminently eatisfactory all
around.
"Yes," said Mr. Merivale to his daugh-
ter. "Jack Hoburton will make a model
husband, one that will tend to elevate
the family station. That's how it alivays
should be. I would be very much pained
to have you marry anyone poorer than our-
selves."
" Why,papa," paid Kate in reply, "1
•am not going to Marry Jack because he has
a little money. I am going to marry him
because I love him."
" That's right," laughed her father, "but
the money is a requisite that must not be
despised, for without it love would be a
-very tame affair indeed. If Jack were be-
low you in worldly station, there would be
a grotesaueness about love that would soon
destroy it. In marriage the social equili-
brium should always be maintained."
About two years after Jack's engagement
to Rate and a year previous to the proposed
-celebration of the nuptials Mr. Merivale
startled the bosom of his family one day by
suddenly entering their midst greatly flus-
tered and perspiring from every pore.
He threw hinwelf into a ohair, and after
prolonged silence that nearly frightened the
•mother and daughter out of their senses
informed thorn that at last "the goal was
sight.
"What goal ?" they cried.
"At last," said he, "we shall rise to our
proper station. Henceforth we have •no
need to envy Robertson. The creditors who
have dogged me for the past 10 years shall
be relegated along with bills marked 'paid
back to their miserly level. In fine" he
eadded, "we are rioh.'
" Explain ; pray explain," they gasped.
"It's the Arapahoe mine," said he. "We
are worth a cool hundred thousand, and the
•people will think it a million."
The news of Mr. Merivale's sudden ac-
, cmisition of wealth spread rapidly, and
people exaggerated the reports, as he had
anticipated. New friends sprang up on every
aide. Whenever Kate appeared she was
. more than evethe centre of attraotion.
Mr. Merivale began to plan changes on a
grand scale. A lot was purchased next to
Robertson's and preparations were made for
the erection of a. magnificent mansion.
There were to be carriages, servants,
graveled weeks, horses, dogs? fountains -nip
',short, all the attributes of aristocracy.
• One day, after a long interview with his
wife, Mr. Merivale summoned Kate. "1
wish to talk with you aboub that fellow
Hoburton," said he. "You do nob suppose,
now, that he will try to hold you to the
engagement, do you?' he inquired nervously.
What !" exclaimed the daughter, red-
dening ; "do you mean that he should for-
sake me because we have been forbunate ?"
"1 mean," returned the father more
coolly, "that since our circumstances have
materially changed we should regulate our-
selves acocordingly. My principle is the
same as I have always endeavored to incul-
tcate. No one should ever marry below his
or her station. Our station has risen, and
those who were once our social equals are
no longer so. Personally, Hoburton is an
estimable young fellow, bub I must insist
that the projected alliance be broken off at
•once."
If Kate gave her father a look of scorn,
it was lost to him, for he continued without
looking up :
" You have always been a dutiful
• daughter, and I have implicit confidence
in your obeying my wishes. We have a
serial status to maintain. Ib •would be
'flying in the face of Providence' to die -
regard the advantages which our altered
circumstances present. This you would
be doing were you to marry a poor man."
" Why, father," exclaimed the daughter,
"Me-. Hoburton is by no means poor. He
• has, as you know, over $10,000, and with
eho atsistance thab you might now afford
he could easily add to it."
"Ab," said her father, "you forget that
while he bas $10,000 you will have ten
times that. He is altogether too many
rounds in the ladder below you, and the
sooner he is informed of the change the
better for all concerned. No, no," said he,
interrupting her as elle was about to con-
tinue the argument, 4' 1 can never conseht

father had left the room, overwhelmed with

Circus and menagerie men say that wild
animals, wean captivity, are greably
afraid of rats and mice. Elephants are said
to have a special aversion to them, even
greater than that of women, for fear that
the mice may crawl into their trunks and
suffocate them. A story is told of an ele-
phant who staanneded Matoon, Ill., at
the sight of a rat. To prove the truth or
falsity of these reports a number of rats and
mice were captured and held in cages to be

riving in the lion house at the Barnum head-

isow to writer Flowers.
All writers on floriculture agree in the
importance of moisture. but not all agree
an to how water shall be applied in the
effort to secure a moist temperature.
"Sprinkle daily," one says. "Flirt water
over them with a whisk broom," says
another. I notice that 1 have made use of
the term "shower." I presume that the
other writers quoted from had the same
effect ia mind that I have; but the term
" sprinkle " is a misleading one, and a
whisk broom is not a proper instrument to
use iu distributing water over and among
plants, says E. E. Rexford in the Ladies'
Rome Journal.
You must have something more than a
mere sprinkling to do much good, and with
a brush broom a mere sprinkling is about
all you ever get. You should aim to throw
water un among the branches, so that the
lower side of every leaf is web; unless this
is done yon but half accomplish what you
aim at, and this is all you can acoomptish
by -the use of anything that does not throw
a stream of water forcibly in any direction
where you want it to go. Every pereon
griming plants in the window ought to be
the owner of a brass syringe made ex-
pressly for floriste' use. With one of theta
impleneente it is the eeriest thing in the
world to get water just where it in needed,

Is ie generally believed at the north then
epecial cars are provided for negroes on the
Southern railroads and that they are for-
bidden to ride on the cars reservedfor white
pope. Such is not the case. The simple
tact is that °voter reilroad in the south sells
tied and secoun doss tickets, whereas only
first clam tickets are sold on moat of the
northern roads. A second class ticket en-
tineone to passage on the smoking car.
As a rule the soathern negroes are thriftless
paid poor, era but for the blessed institution
of aelond-class tickets would hardly be able
to travel at all, for ranee of fare are nearly
doable whet they are in the north. Thfre
