Then dream, with your sweot eyes shut, dear, That my hand In your own is laid, And wo seek together the youth of tho year In the sweet of tho apple bough's shade And you shall know beyond donbt or fonr In your dream that love but you.

Wiiat Ono laiy Itemombored of the Sceu of the A'amous Itattle. "Iu my early days I knew a. lady who happened to bo in Brussels tlmt memorable June," said Mrs. Newton Crossland. "Sho was then nowly married and only 23 years of ago.

So lit lo certain of victory did tho Knglish on tho spot feel that her husband iiisistod'ou her dressing liko a Normandy peasant, thinking suoh costumo would be a protection. "Vividly havo I hoard her describe tho partings sho witnessed at the dour of tho hotel whero sho was staying and tho despair of wives who wero left behind wives soon to bo widows. "Very graphically, too, did she describe tho next day's events, when womon, many of, whom, too agitated to change their attire, wero still elegantly dressed, made their way somehow to tho lluld of uattlo, returning iu tho army wagons, supporting tho hoads of the wounded on their knees, bathing their brows and binding up thoir wounds, while a steady rain poured down on tlio faces begrimed by powder, which yet allowed their pallor to bo seen. "I oueo met at a dinner party tho widow of an ollicer I forget tho name who fought at Waterloo, and the lady narrated her cxporlcnco of the after bottlo seono. For some reason she had to eruss the field of Waterloo, which was still Etscwn with tho dead, and for this purpose sho was blindfolded and placed on horseback, the steed being led by a trooper.

"Sho held a handkerchief to hor nose, steeped, I think sho said, with vinegar, and not until sho had reached an acclivity nearly a mile from tho scene of tho carnage was the bandago removed from her oyos. Then sho looked back. Tho field of Waterloo appeared liko a field of tombstones, for tho bodies wero all stripped of clothing and shone white in the sunshine liko stones. Tho camp following ghouls had done thoir work effectually. 1 Now York Advertiser.

Takluj a Bath In Paris. "Tho bathing comes more nearly boing nniversal in tho United States than in any country I'vo ever visited," suid Mr. D. J. Burton of San Fraueiseo.

"Everybody knows of tho funny custom in Paris, where tho puoplo got their baths from a fellow who hauls around a portable bathtub and takes it up to tho rooms of his patrons. Think of opening your window in tho early morning and whistling to attract tho attention of the bath vender. That's tho way they do in tho gay Fronch metropolis. Nono of the hotels, except a few very lately built that have patterned after tho American stylo, can accommodate a guest who wouts to wash, and private houses nro utterly without facilities for ablution. "Tho Englishman plumes himself on his devotion to cold water, but it's really a travesty on bathing that John Bull performs.

Ho will fill a shullow basin half full of water, and Immersing a towel in it mop himself therewith quite vigorously, splashing around with fearful racket aud thinking that ho has dono tlio subject complete justice In a good many other countries of Europe the people seem totally innocent of tho practice of applying water externally, and that Is why I maintain that my own countrymen aro the aleauest on earth." Washington Post. An American Britisher. Major Fisher, ono of the most charming old gontlcmon iu all tho world, always rises to drink when tho nnmo of the quoen is mentioned and has the I3ritish accent well under control. Ho is tho most out and out Britisher of my acquaintance. Tho English army is his god, and ho do-lights in looking askance nt things American.

The major fought in the Union army and did excellent service in a troop of cavalry. Ho refused to wear an American sword, however, and by special dispensation was permitted to wear an English saber. 'Withan English sword you fed that-you havo something iu your hand," he oxplnined. "while your light American sword Is like a straw and goes flying all over your head when you aro in tho saddle." Tho major was born in this country, and his uncle was ono of Amor-lea's most famous admirals. Now York Press.

Orders left at No. 807 Hamilton Strtsb by telephone, fromptly Attended c. LINTON A. CROMAN, Attornoy At Law. (14 Hamilton Street, ALLENTOWN, PA Lace Sho Snapped TTp at Him, but Be Had Ills Reveogo Tho line of pcoplo waiting toensh money ordors at tho postollico was long and growing longer, and tho late comers wore suffering from tho long period of standing.

Far back nt the last cud of the linoo limn glaucod casually over tho shou Id it of the woman in front of him and saw that tho order sho carried open in her hand was not drawn upon tho postollico at all, but upon a prominent express company. "IOxciiso mti, madam," ho said, good na-turedly, thinking to spare her further uniting. ''Kxouse mo, but yon havocomoto tho wrong plfioe; "you must cash that order it the office of tho Express ct'in- P-tiiy." "Slind your own business," sho snapped bock, turning her head to glaro fiercely him. "What right have you to read my papers? I guess I know a postollico order when I see ono, and, anyway, my son told mo ho should send the money to tho post-office. I'll thank you to look after your own affairs and let mino alone." Tho good naturcd man was mortified at tho reception of his well meant suggestion, and ho made no further effort to explain her mistake to her, but ho could not help smiling a little when, after another SO minutes' wait, she reached tlio window and the clerk, giving a hasty planco at tho paper, remarked -briefly: Wrong place, nuulam.

Go to the express company." The woman tried to argue tho question, but was told to puss on and she slopped from the lino intently reading tho much discussed order. Whon tho good nut red man had finished his own business and was walking quickly down tho corridor, ho was stoppodby a touch on his arm, and tiiero sho stood, looking deprecatingly up ct him and holding out her paper. "Vhero did you r.ay I should go to got this cashed?" she asked, trifle haughtily, and his own nock stiffened lminetliatoly nt tho remembrance of hor recent rude behuv-lor. "Pardon mc, madam," he said quietly, "but I am minding my own business now." And lifting his hat ho departed, leaving a very angry woman gazing ufter hiin. Chicago Tribune.

ABOUT STRAWBERRIES. The IUnce T.usclnns Fruit Occupies Tn Ttellcs Lottres. Tho ancients did not know anything about tho strawberry. It was not cultivated until ho fifteenth century and perhaps first in England. Shakespeare was fond of it, as he was of nil good things.

So much is to bo inferred from what ho makes Closter say to tho bishop of Ely iu the third scene of tho third aetof "Ilichurd III:" My lord of Ely, when I was last in Holborn I saw good strawberries in your garden there. I do beseech you to send lor sonio of thorn." And tho bishop, undoubtedly pleased at the compliment to his garden, replied: "Harry, uml I will, my lord, with a'J my heart." In "Honry thoro is an interesting Busgostion as to how thoy were cultivated in the early day, as ho makes the bishop say: "Tho strawberry grows underneath tho ncttlo, and wholesome berries thrivo and ripen best neighbored by fruit of baser quality." Old Izaak Walton, most genial of spirits, author of tho "Comploto Angler; or, Tho Contemplative Man's Kccroation," who, whun ho retired from business with com petency, "lived mostly in the families of uiulnent olurgymcn of lunglund, of whom ho was much beloved" ho, too, was fond of the glorious berry, for did ho uot pro-servo tho saying of Dr. Iiotclcr that "doubtless God could hovo made a better berry, but doubtless God nevor did?" What did Horaco Walpolo do with tho 130,000 a yoor ho derived from tho sinocuro offices which his affectionate fat hor bo-stowed on himf He spent it in building tho Got hio mansion which ho called Strawberry Hill.

A young Boston student writes from Germany that he, together with un Amer ican friend, recently went, into a restaurant. The waitress, a pretty girl, listened to the conversation, and finally overcoming her curiosity asked, "Are you English men?" "No," was tho answer. "Wo are Americans." "But you were speakiug English just now, weren't you?" said the girt. xos, we all Iiavo to learn to Bpcak English in school, but wo generally speak American, especially as tho Indiana don't know any English, replied the Boston man, with a wink at his friend. "Oh, won't you speak a littlo American?" said tho girl.

"My cousin is thoro, but I never hoard any of tho languugo."

"Minnehaha?" said the other student. "Immovoro," said No. 1 glibly, "Pax vo-blscum." But (what does it all mean, what you have just said?" asked the unsuspecting girl. "Oh, just that you were very pretty." And frauloin tripped off, blush leg. Boston Courier.

A Knowing Collie. A collie in Scotland, whom I know well, lit in tho habit of fetching from his master's room slippers, cap, keys or anything ho is rent for. Ono day, tent on tho usual errand, ho did not reappear. His master followed and found that the door of the bedroom had blown to, and the dog Was a prisoner. Some days later he was again told to fetch something, and as the wiud was high ids master, after a few minutes' delay, followed him.

He found him in the act of fixing tho door firmly back with the doormat, which ho had rolled up for tho purpose, and having taken this precaution the prudent animal proceeded to look for the slippers. This same collie, when walking with me, ran on In front and rang the gate bell of tho house to which I was going, so that I had not to wait when I arrived thoro.

The man who shouts for municipal re-form with one breath and for free Sun day beer with the next is one of those hypooritioal substances of tlte present century. Claims numbering 122 and ntrgregat-jng $1,175,756 have been filed against the city of Chicago as a sequel of the strike riots last summer. However, the courts will say to what extent the l-tspectivo claims are valid. But in any case tbey will be apt to prove sufficient to lastingly impress Chicago with a realization of the truth that playing with anarchy is an expensive and nefarious vocation' Try, Try Again. The old maxim If at first yon don't succeed, etc.

is certainly applicable to the now couuty schome in Mc-Carthy's home. The perfervid of Governor Hastings or hanging and burning him in elfigy do much to retard the now county. And it certainly deserves lo win. The governor hinted in his veto that the act was unconstitutional. If he was so convinced, ho did nothing except his sworn duty in vetoing it.

Let the pcoplo or Uazleton prepare a bill that will be constitutional and tljon work for its succoss in tho legislature of 1807. The passage of the present bill through the house and senate (even though it failed to becomo a law) lias gained much for it. It is only to he regretted that the bill did not pass in the earlier days of the legislature before the present Quay-Hastings fight came off. Ij would probably have received thogover. nor's signature in that event.

It is now better understood throughout the state than ever before that tho new county, with Har.leton as Its county eat, is a perfoct necessity. The people of that district should not alienate sympathy by hasty or intemperate speech and action. Remember that old axiom, Try again. A thing that is worth having is also worth working for. They must not be discouraged but work all the harder and give It a name free from all political thought.

Name it Huzle County. Good Constables Wanted. Judge Edwards is hot after the conscienceless constables of Lackawanna County who levied blackmail upon tho citizens in tbeir bailiwick. Ho scoieditlie constables unmercifully for those usurious transactions under cover of their official positions. The Wilkes-Barre Uncord argues that he should follow it up by causing the arrest and punishment of the blackmailers, which they doserve and which cannot be too sovere.

Drastic measures are necessary in dealing with such alleged conservators of the law. A long term in jail will bring the brutes to a realization of their duty. The courts themselves oould do much toward Improving the personnel of constables. There is altogether too much laxity displayed in the appointment of deputy constables. It is a common practice in Luzerne County for regularly elected constables to turn over thoir offices to irresponsible deputies who are promptly appointed by the court and no questions asked.

The bonds of these deputies are as a general rule worthless. Xbey are not closely examined, neither are they filod of record. Consequently these alleged officers of the law enjoy comparative immunity. This accounts in part for the lack of confidence on the part of the people in the average constable, and the consequent lack of efficiency on the part of these officers. A little more intelligent supervision on the part of the court would bring about a chuuge for the better.
