Lo, whatever is at hand Is full meet for the demand; Natm'e ofttimes giveth best When she seemetli chariest. She hath shapen shov/er and sun To the need of every one— Summer bland and winter drear, Dimpled pool and frozen luei’e. All thou lackost she hath «till, Near thy finding and thy fill. Yield her fullest faith, and’she Will endow thee royallj’-. Loveless weed and lily fair She attendeth, here and there— Kindly to the weed as to The lorn lily teared vuth dew. Each to her hath use as near As the other; and thou c'ear Thy cloyed senses thou may’st see Happy all the mystery. Thou shalt see the lily ge^ Its divinest blossom; yet Shall the weed’s tip bloom no less With the song-bird’s gleef uluess.

She doth lavish on thee, while Thou witholdest any smile Of thy gratitude to her, Baser used than usurer. Shame be on thee and thou seek Not her pardon, with hot cheek, And bowed head, and'brimming eyes, At her merciful “Arise!” THE BEAHTIFUL aREEZ. In a small city in the borders of the Black Sea there lived a young girl of 16, who was a pearl of the first water—a marvel of beauty, grace and . ingenuous ness. Never did the brain of a poet in its most inspired ecstasy imagine a type b'^-’utj more pure a^d-pcrfocfc. A. R O B IT S H £ K . Ag^en’t. of moderate means. AH of the mothers of the little city of Xanthus were jealous .of the mother of Isea, this loVely child.' The young girls regarded her with a secret spite; the men lost their hearts and repose; young and old—all were enam ored of her. The old women said: “Isea possesses a charm, that is certain. Her beauty is unnatmul.” The Pasha or Governor of the province had a son who lived in Constantinople. Dm-ing one of his visits to his father at Xanthus, he encountered Isea. It is hardly necessary to say that he loved her distractedly. In his enthusiasm he cried: “This young girl can only be a houri es caped from the paradise of our gxeat prophet!” His mother —a good mother to him— was disquieted by the singular state of her son; she questioned him, and made him confe.5S his love for Isea. Her son told her that the parents of Isea were not rich, and that a large for tune v.’ould, without doubt, influence them. His mother promised to make trial the next day. Consequently the wife of the Governor was announced to the parents of Isea. The lady made her demand and offered a large sum of money. She promised, in the name of her son, that Isea should be the only and well-beloved wife of the young Mussulman, and should he at liberty to follow her own religion. The parents replied that their daughter could not espouse a Mussulman, and nothing could induce them to change their opinions. YVhen the young man heard this his despair so affected his mother that she formed a plan in her mind, and bade her son cheer up and return to Stamboul, and before a month had passed she would be in possession of the beautiful Isea. Fifteen days after, a boat carrying the Austrian flag touched at a city situated a few leagues from that in which. Isea lived. An old Turkish woman and two eunuchs, accompanied by a lady who seemed young, notwithstanding a thick veil which concealed her face, came dh board the boat. The commander of the ship had been. excited by the resistance which the young woman seemed to make to her compan ions. He passed and repassed near the place where she was, and was convinced before long that she was guarded by these people. Something in the Captain’s face seemed to show the veiled lady that in him she had a friend, and a short time after, while the Captain was on the lower deck talking to his lieutenant, he saw the lady pass, leaning on the arm of the old woman; she had a calm and resigned air. She passed twice; then at the third time, by a quick movement disengaged herself suddenly, and, springing down the steps, fell at the feet of the commander crying: “Help and protection! I am a Chris tian!” At her cries, and the noise of her fall, the passengers rushed from the saloon, raised and surrounded her; but the old woman, recovered from her surprise, came quickly to the bottom of the stairs, followed by her eunuchs. Then an ani mated disj>ute commenced—^the eunuchs took out their sabres and tried to seize her; the infuriated old wowan was before her like a harpy, holding her by the anns and garment. But the commander took a revolver from his pocket and sig nified to the eunuchs that he would blow out their brains if they touched the young “She is a Turk,” said the old woman; “you have no right to her.” . The young girl, tearing away the veil which covered her face, and, casting it from her, cried: “They lie I I am a Christian!” The face which she now exposed to the gaze of the commander and passen gers was the most beautiful that could be imagined. A Greek priest on board, hearing the, discussion, came forward. On perceiving him the ^young girl cast herself at his feet, saying: “ Save me, more^Bure ^ -/Y This young Greek belonged to a family ] they have\treache^usly^. thereby insuring her Austrian protec-. : tion. - The ambassador wrote iirimediately to ; the parents of Isea, to assure them of her • A year later she sailed on the same vessel with the young captain for her ; captive.— World. L- A Shooting Star Explains.’ if you rub a button on a board it will become warm. If you rub two pieces of wood together you can warm them, and you could even produce fire if you pos sessed the cunning skill of some people whom you are accustomed to speak of aa savages. Nor need you be surprised to find that I was warmed by merely rub bing against air. If you visit a rifle ringe and pick up a fragment of a bullet which has just struck the target you wiU find it warm; you will even find it so hot that you will generally drop iti ' Now, whence edme this heat? The bullet was certainly cold ere the trigger was pulled. No doubt there is some heat developed by the combustion of the gunpowder, but the bullet cannot be much warmed thereby; it is, indeed, protected from the immediate effect of the heat o f the pow der by the wad. The bullet ia partly warmed, by the frictibn of rubbing against the barrel of the rifle, but doubtless it also receives; some heat by the friction of the air and some from the consequence of its percus sion against the target.. You need not, then, -wonder how. it is that'w^hen I am checked by your atmosphere I too a®® heat'edr Remember that I move a, hun- stolen toe' from my family.. Madamq designs me for the harem of her son.” The captain spoke to her in Turkish and told her that the boat represented Austna, consequently the young girl had asked protection of this nation, which should be given to her; that she had no more right over her ^since the Austrian flag protected her; furthermore, she must retire with her eunuchs or he would be forced to deal severely with her. When Isea was recovered from her violent emotion, the priest told her that to protect her effectually he must know* how and why she had been enslaved. A •circle was formed around her, for a very lively curiosity had been excited. She told, in the first j)lace, wdiat we already know; the demand which had been made for herhand by the son of the Governor, and the reply of her father. “My mother is acquainted with several Turkish families, and one of them in vited me to spend the day \with them. While there a domestic brought me c’dp of coffee, Avliicli, after I drank it, gave me a violent headache, and finally robbed me of my senses.” “When I awoke I was in a carriage, seated beside the Pasha’s wdfe and guarded by two eunuchs. I tried to call for help, but they threatened to gag me if I made any outcry. They finally brought me on a boat, and how I es caped them you all know.” When the boat reached Constantino ple the Captain hoisted the Austrian flag- He put the officers under arms and gave express orders not to permit any one to leave the boat. The young girl he locked in his cabin under a guard. It was 'w’^ell that he took these precau tions, for as soon as the anchor was cast the young Mussulman arrived, escorted by several important Turkish personages. His mother told him all that had passed. He was furious and demanded that the young girl should be delivered to his suite. But the captain could .not be intimi dated. He left the boat under the guard of his mate, and ran to the Austrian em bassy to explain the matter to the am bassador. As soon as all the circum stances were fully related to him, the ambassador came to the boat, took the young girl on his arm and descended to his little barge, where the Austrian fla:;- waved, and escorted her to the embassy, ing'bf\ enormously when the VelOcity\.of the body increases. Yoiir mathematicians can calculate how much. They tell you that the heat produced will, as they say, vary as the square of the velocity: To give an illustration of . what this, means, suppose that two rifles were fired at a . target, and that the sizes of the bulleta- and the ranges were the same, but that-, the charge in one of the rifles was such-, that its bullet had tAvice the initial veloc ity of the other, then the nmthema-- tician will say. that • the heat de veloped during the flight of the rapid' bullet might be not alone twice, but even, four times, as great as that developed ur the slower bullet. If - Ave- could fire two bullets one of which had three times the speed of the other, then, under similar circumstances, the heat generated ere the-, two bullets were brought to rest would, be nine times greater tor -the more rapid ly flying bullet than for the. other one. Now, you can readily comprehend the- immense quantity of beat ’that will have- ( been produced ere friction Could deprive- me of a speed of 20 miles a second.— Macmillan'’s Mo,gazine. • • - Shooting Wild Turkeys. k wild tui’key would not be such a hard bird to hit if it were not so big. Its size overcomes the shooter. Its flight is simple and can be mastered even by the rifleman. When the turkey makes Ms first burst into the air he does it with great effort, as his -heavy body is hard to get under way. ' He keeps on going up, however, pretty straight, till he gets as- high as he wants to go, then starts off nearly at right angles, and sails in nearly an absolute straight line. He is easily caught just at the instant he steadies, himself for this straight line; or, if the- i-ifleman does not succeed in getting aim at that point, let him .pull on to the birH after he has settled down to the line: flight, then keep the muzzle down, rum along ahead just, out of sight of the beard of the breast, and pull away, peep ing the rifle\ on the swing. A go6d shot Avill strike' the turkey about at the butt of the wing in this way; but tor an or dinary blaze away fresh from the-city, it Avould be better if the turkey were about twelve feet long— New YorJc Ch'apTtie. He who gives quickly gives twice, ak- any rate is generally asked to.
