Archie’s W ifs: I?

You came2 Yes dear, but remember, Archie’s plam- n me other can fill. ’Twas busin.;.~s detained him, I reckon, Weli, well. T Won’t let it annoy; No doubt he is climbing the ladder 0f fame he dreamed of as a boy. He‘s used to rehearse his ambition, At .ny feet, with his hand on my knee. I wishâ€"but perhaps he is keeping A tender welcome for me. Prince of sons, he visits my slumbers, And his kisses avmke me at morn. Fergive_me, my dear, do I grieve you? . . , Laueâ€"A nun wore born You are a sweet girl. I don’t blame you For making a first place in his heart It has seemed to me,â€"don’t be offended, I’m his mother and know every part Of his nature, and somehow his letters Have been rather downcast of late,; He is writing so often for money, And hints at things sad to relate. I thought you were childish and giddy, Extravagant too, I confess ; But I see no reason to chide you For extravagance in your dress. Your pretty print frock is quite tidy, Your collar as white as the snow,â€" But if you don’t spend them for laces, Where is it the dollars all go? The carriage! Oh, well, never mind it, We’ll walk if it isn’t far ; I’m quite numb and weary with sitting So long in the dusty car. Thanks, dear.

It’s a mercy I cmne to you now; for I know AH a‘mma the Leeds of a. baby, 5L5; ‘- -- - And the food that will make him grow, My Archy was puny and sickly For years the most of the time, I kept the breath of life in him, By doses of brandy and wine. Yes, brandy and wine are great blessings To mothers. in many a way; Without them I couldn’t have raised him To love us and bless us to-day. And :ho little rogue learned to like them; Why, he'd take. the bitteresb pill VVith only 1*. swallow of porter To wash it downâ€"Dear, are you ill?

Are you Christian or pagan, I wonder, Thrtt you dare stand here and express Such “mathenish views! Will the Father ‘WorK iziiracles, think for your son? Will he take your sick boy and cure him Till your part is faithfully done? What harm can the medicine do him? You fear for its future? Such fears Are food for fools and fanatics. Those long-viswged, soothsaying seers Who trail their prophetic horrors Through all the bright places of life, Who sit, like Death’s head at the banquet, To herald the Queuming strife. ’Tis a. shame on your son to suggest it ! A shame on your darling and mine! Why! six generations of Duttons Have proved themselves stronger than Wine, Not one disgracing their manhood. Don’t mention it, Alice, I pray; Your boy is the last of the lineage,â€" Do you think him less noble than they? Lisgmce is unknown to a Dutton ?n all their ancestral line, Do you fear that. their blue blood is tar- nished And weakened by mixture with thine?

ROSA HARTWICK THORPE, 111(4102' of “Curfew shalt not Ring To-night.’ ARCHIE’S MGTHE Dr. Laking. the celebrated London doccur, is in attendance upon the Duke of Clarence, who is laid up at, Sandringham with Influenza. and pneumonia. The doctor reported yesterday afternoon that the Duke was much better.

In the mormng when he’d smg; His feathers were as white as snow His comb, it was his pride, And the hens they fight among themselves Since our old rooster died! Sometimes he’d in the arden scratch, And sometimes pull 1: e corn; He was always up and at. his work, Right early in the mom; And when we laid him on the block, And told him he must die, He said he was too old and tough To make a chicken-pie. ’Twas sad to hear his pleading voice, And see his tearful eye, And manfully he kicked and flopped To free himself and fly, But. ’twas no use, ’twas Christmas day, ‘ And we were out of meat, And the mm was at the house For something good to est! Scraps of Information. Ox hoofs and leather are soaked in French nut oil, and are then burnt, pulverized and mixed with sea. salt- and potash.

Fall Gowns 1n the Electric Lignc. “Woman,” says a man, have got to de- vise some way to meet the searching rays of the electric light. In the theatres and hotels I am struck with its effect upon the faces of the women. It not only brings out every spot and blemish on the face, but creates, by its sharp shadows, lines and angles which do not exxst, endowing fair women with unnatural, homely counten- ances. This is so accepted a truth that women, who make a study of accessories, surround thomselves wherever possible with other than electric lights, or, if obliged to face them, sec to it that their rays come through shaded globes. Nor does a woumn of tliScrimiuzttion nowadays buy aball or reception gown till she has tested it under electric lighting, small rooms thus illumi- natal being provided for the purpose in all large shops. A fabric beautiful and be- coming by gas, lamp or candle light entirely loses these characteristics when subjected. to the cold dazzle of electricity, and women know this. Dull-r» ;-~‘~-___ , The gifted authoress of “Uncle Tom’s‘ Cabin,” now 80 years of age, is said to be failing rapidly. A gentleman who recently visiLed her home in Hartford tells a. New York correspondent, that, she has failed very much of late and her mind is so clouded that she cannot talk consecutively on any subject. She is not confined to her room and she does not require a. physician’s care, but her friends are apprehensive that, the end is not far off". A great; many letters still come to her, but, these she does not see. She is consumtly under surveillance. Her last days we made as pleasant as wealth and kind frienels can make them, but she seems to know nothing of what is going on about her, and, indeed, is almost, as 1181 - less :is a. child.
