But old Gray said must stop,
And promised Ma would;
So looked up, sweet, and said
That I'd rather talk with him.
Hone he didn't see my face,
Luckily the lights were dim;
Then how he did squeeze my hand
And he'd look up in my face
With his lovely, great big eyes
Really it's a dreadful case.
He was all in earnest, too,
But thought I'd have to laugh
When he kissed a flower 1 gave,
LoOking-oh like such q calf
I suppose he has it now,
In wine glass on his shelves.
It's a mystery to me
Why men ICiH deceive themselves,

Well, he begged so hard for one,
And thought there'd no one know,
So I-let him-just for fun.

To trifle with his feelings, dear,
But men are such conceited things,

Gave me her bouquet to hold
Asked me to draw of her glove.

Talked about my wasted life,

Be true and gentle wife.
Then, you know, used my eyes
She believed me every word;
Almest said she loved me-JoVe
Such a voice never heard
Gave me some symbolic flower,
Had a meaning, oh so sweet.

Must have dropped it in the street.

be fiery clouds consisting mainly of hydrogen
gas, heated to such an extent as to become
self-luminous. Their dimensions are enor-
nous, often not less than 100, 900 miles in
diameter 1t has been ascertained that dis
turbances in the sun have wrought magnetic
changes in the earth, and the way in which
this has been effected perhaps may be scien-
tifcally explained. Whether that passage of
scripture in regard to signs in the sun and
moon and stars is to be literally or symbolically
understood we do not presume to say, but
if taken literally it is obvious there are agen-
cics or forces already at work sufficient to
produce such a result. Some astromers say
our sun is a variable star and its spots are in
tmately connected with the red flames or hy-
drogen clouds. There have been instances,
and one very recent, i'll which stars suddenly
became very brilliant and it is known that
this brillancy is owing to incandescent hydro
gen. If this is the case with our sun and
should its brilliancy be greatly enhanced for
a time and be followed by obscurity or dark
ness, the quantity of sunlight might not only
be greatly affected but the magnetic condi-
ton of the earth also

formed the youth that the laws of the State re-

forthwith unless said youth would inform him
where he procured so much fiery liquid. He
hesitated to divulge the name of the seller,
but at length, in reply to the Marshal's ques-
|tion-"Did you get the liquor at 0 Brien's,"
acknowledged-''I didn't get it anyrhere

|O'Brien establishment, and the next day the
youth was summoned to reiterate before Judge
IGiman the declaration made to the Marshal
But the youth would not testify, and on being
pressed concerning the declaration made to
Marshal Fowles that the ardent was pro-
cured at O'Brien's, said, -"Well, Judge,

The Judge in about two minutes time, hand
BID paper on which he had been writing, to
