NIGHT. The sun has vanished out of my sight, And the moments sadly roll, For my heart is dark with the thought < i night, And the night is in my soul.

The day is set and never will rise, And my heart is sick and sore, For the sweet, sweet light of my true love's eyes Will shine for me no more.

My very slee p< f rest is shorn, I am full of pain and care—4

Bick with the thought of what I have borne And of what is left to bear.

I see the rose with blushes fired, I hear the brook run by,

But I am tired, so sick and tired, I almost long to cie.

For I know the sun will dry the stream, And the flow’ret fade in the frost,

And I know that my dream is all a dream And the charm of the dream is lost

There will never, never be any more light,

t part, 1d my sou ul the thought of night, And the night is in my heart.

KINGS AMONG ELEPHANTS

Iwo Fine Beasts That Hind Slaves to Wait a

on Them,

It was our good fortune to be present at an important meeting of the khed- fah at Chila, on the banks of the Ganges, where the Nepalese governmert had sent down their magnificent troop of tame elephants for the chase of wild ones. They were about 150 in number— magnificent, noble creatures, writes a contributor to the Boston Journal.

The two finest among them were the ‘*kings’’ of the troop and were called Bijli Prasad and Narian Gaj Prasad. Bijli Prasad, which means ‘“‘lord of lightning,’’ was soch a grand fellow! The width of his brows was great that he could not put his head through our hall door, and be knows to the smallest point what a mighty creature be is.

He and his companion, Narian Gaj Prasad, which means ‘‘the peerless lord,’’ are provided with two slave

NEW YORK’ S GROWTH.

The City Has Never Halted Since It Was First Fairly Started.

Ernest Ingersoll writes a paper on the Greater New York, entitled ‘‘ Reasoning Out a Metropolis,’’ for St. Nicholas. Mr. Ingersolf says:

The people of New York, Brooklyn Staten Jsland and certain nearby north- ern towns resolved to join ghnemselves together into one city, which is now the Greater New York. It embraces 341] square miles of territory and includes a popniati: u of nearly 8,400,009,

Besides tnese af | dwell on the New Jersey Hudson river, quite as closely identified with the Manhattan Island as are mortkern and eastern suburbs, This makes a population of nearly 4,500, 00 which may be said to belong to New | York, making it not only by far the | largest center of human life and inter- ests in but, excepting only London, the most populous spot on the globe.

How has it happened that this vast city has grown up where it stands:

Why did not the American metropolis arise somewhere else? Is its position all an accident, or does history show sound reasons for its situation? The earliest settlement here was merely a trading station that gradually became a small seaport, iike a dozen others along tke coast. Before the year 17@0 these were so nearly alike that he would have been & wise prophet who truly foretold which wouldthrive. Indeed many men of that day firmly believed that Newport and Annapolis were to be the two great American seaports.

Great cities arise 2t the points wbere the greatest number of people find it convenient to meet at first for business and later for pleasure. You cannot force a city to grow in an unnatural or unsuit- able situation, and it is no easier te pre- vent.a city from srowins in its prover place. But the conditions that change a village into « big tewn and expand the towa into a city or metropolis are not the same in differemt parts of the:globe and vary with the march turies; that sow many an world market, like Nineveh or Mem- phis, has totally disappeared, while

‘ter is to fetch and provide fodder for

Bijli and Narian Gaj. They do their

duty right well. At early dawn their mahouts, or drivers, drive them into their jungles, and they work like real slaves. They collect the sweet sugar

canes, tearing them up by the roots, the young, succulent grasses and tender leaves and heap them up in masses which weigh abont 300 pounds each These loads are put on their backs, and thrice a day they gladly carry in their burdens and lay them at the feet of their lords.

We went ont by moonlight to see the latter fed, and any child would enjoy the strange sight. First of all the ma- hout makesa great big campfire of twigs and brushwood, and on it he placesa large, flat iron dist, supported on two bricks. Then he takes wheat flour and ku one it with water into great round

at cakes about an inch thick and twice the circumference of a soup plate. There cakes he bakes on the iron dish.

We were anxious to taste them, and we found them very good. We punched out with our fingers all the nice brown spots and ate them, hot. And to make up to Bijli az nd Narian for takiug part of their supper, we had prepared a treat, of which they are particularly foud. From the bazaar we had brought great balls of sugar cane juice boiled down and made solid, called ‘‘goor’’ in that country. Each ball was twice the size of a tennis ball and in each wheat cake or ‘‘capati’’ we rolled a lump of this molasses. You should have seen how the big beasts enjoyed their feed— how their great trunks rested down on our shoulders, always upturned for the forthcoming delicacy!

“y defy any man to stay away from his native town so long that on his re- turn there will be nothing left to re- mind him of the old days,’’ said a suc- cessful western man, who had just paid a visit to his birthplace, a little village of nerthern New Hampshire.

Effects of a Bee Sting.

An English physician relates an in- stance of a lady who was stung bya bes. At the first moment she seemed to pay very little attention to it, but very soon her face became flushed and spots appeared all over her body. Suddenly she developed a most severe attack of asthma, finding great difficulty in breathing. Another instance is that of & young lady who was stung on the back of her head by an ordinary honey- bee. In less than five minutes her face began to swell, and very marked red and white spots appeared all over tke surface of the body. The swelling ex- tended over the entire person, accompa- nied by severe pain, burning and giddi- ness. The eyes were almost closed and the countenance was so distorted as to be unrecognizable. Very free bathing in soda water, with a little soda taken internally, and hot applications to the feet and thorough massage finally afford- ed relief, but it was some hours before the patient recovered from what was truly an alarming condition. Violent attacks of nervousness accompanied the trouble, and the sense of suffocation was almost intolerable. The young wo- man had been stung a number of times vefore without any apparent unpleasant result. ‘The physicians were of the opfn- ion that the bee had been feeding upon some extremely poisonous plant, which became concentrated in the venom of the sting. Be that as it may, the condi- tion was such as to excite grave appre- nension, the more so as it was several days before recovery was complete,— New York Ledger,

DANGEROUS NEGLIGENCE,

If there is any difference in their reckless neg- ligence it is in favor of the latter. Health is the most precious gift of nature. The aim of all should be its reservation. It is easier to retain, tras to regain once it is lost, Keep the blood pureand the system strong —
