TOUCHING THE RAINBOW. LORD BACON, that quaint discoverer, announced that “ where a rainbow sceiueth to bang over, or to touch, there brcakcth forth sweet smell. 1 ’ Pity 'tis that so few of these grave philosophers of the old time can be taken quite seriously in this white light of the new. There was Augustine, the esteemed saint, who assured the faithful that he had actually seen in Aithiopio many men and women having no heads, but large eyes fixed in their breasts—in other respects like himself—and also men that had a single eye, and that in the forehead. Augustine had an opulent imagination. But there is a soul of reality in these fictions. There arc to this day many folk whose eyes arc, to all intents and purposes, in their stomachs. And if you are willing and wise, you may still get into the path of tt* - -ainbow. You may warm your leisure with delight, and fill your dullest hours with a rar redeeming sweetness. A'on may have your nerves as har moniously responsive as the strings of a master’s harp.
