4 WOman's Memorandum for Her
FOrgetful Husband.

A GENTLEMAN who resides few miles
in the country announced his intention Of
coming to the city to get a few of the
necessaries of life. His good Wife who
evidently reads the papers and knows
what is going on, furnished her "old
man. with the following memorandum,
recognizing the fact that 'these men are
so stupid" and always forget what they
are sent after But here is the seasonable
list of necessaries, which though not in
strictly clerky form is nevertheless to
the point. and we'll calculated To make
an impression on the mind:
Get pound of tea.
And don't forget to 90 to Browns drug
store and get eight pounds Of copperas
and a pint Of carbolic acid.
Get dollars worth of loaf sugar.
Bring dozen lemons.
Ifyou have chance you had better
bring a bushel of lime.
We ought to have a pound OF ground
mustard and some ginger.
Get a gallon of coal oil and demijohn
of whisky Be particular and don't get
them mixed-have the coal oil put into
the can, and the whiskey in the demi-
john.
If you see a nice piece of calico, you
Go to Orynski's and get bottle of his
blackberry syrup.
The flour is out.
Be careful and don't drink any well
water while in town.
Be sure and get bottle Of Hamlin's
cholera cure.
We ought to have half a dozen knives
and forks for the kitchen.
Go to McCleery's and get a bottle OF
Dr. McCabe's blackberry brandy.
Don't bring any green thing home TO
make the children sick.
Don't forget the coal oil and the demi-
john, and be sure to keep them sepa-
rate.
Go to Cheever's and get a bottle of
syrup of blackberry and ginger.
Get pint of cognyac brandy
Keep away from them nasty ponds un-
less they are filled up.
If you see any good disinfectant bring
some home.
Get few pounds of crackers and rice,
and some oatmeal
If you see the doctor ask him to give
you prescription TO cure cholera.
Be careful and don't break the demi-
john.
Johnny needs pair of shoes.
You had better call at all the drug
stores and see who has got the best chol-
era medicine.
Now don't forget any of these things,
and keep this list in your hat where you
can find it,
Come home early.
About four o'clock yesterday afternoon
the man with the memorandum might
have been seen going out Broadway with
all his horse could draw, his rockaway
resembling the hospital supply train Of
an army corps. If the cholera ever goes
out in that direction it will meet with
warm reception.-Hannibal Mo- Courier.

widespread ruin of homemade hats will
be the result of this news.
AMERICANS do not like to ''take a back
seat" They are always anxious to be
foremost in the fray The Clock tower,
at Westminster, has excited their emula-
ton. We hear that the new building of the
New \ 1ork Tribune is TO be adorned with
an Illuminated clock, set in tower 200
feet high, built in the Florentine style.
THE alluvial bottoms of the Mississippi,
the Ohio, the Tennessee, and Cumberland
rivers are more favourable to the acquisi-
ton of wealth than to the preservation Of
health. y burning sun pouring upon
steaming marsh speedily evokes the gaunt
spirit of disease and the moist atmos-
phere so indispensable to the rapid de
velopement of vegetable life exercises q
malefcent influence on the human organi-
zation.
AN old gentleman in Maine is prepar-
ing for the good time to come. He has
caused to be erected in the cemetery n
gorgeous monument to the memory OF
himself and wife, setting forth their viz
tues, etc, and leaving the dates of their
deaths to be filled in whenever those
events NAV happen. 1t is said that his
chief delight consists in watching the
throngs of gaping rustics assembled around
the monument To admire its beauty and
ponder over its sculptural adornments.

EARTH'S ANGELS.

l NEVER saw an angel,
Except the ones in books;

Knows how an angel looks.
We guess at something misty.
With trailing wings OF white,
With amber tresse- floating,
And garments strangely bright.
But | believe earth's angels
Walk here in mortal guise,
Though we discern but family
Through heavy-lidded eyes,
Or see them a. they leave It's.
Who walked beside us here,
Their aBgelhood quite hidden,
Because it lived 80 near
/ can remember angels
Who seemed like common folks,
Who wore old-fashioned bonnets.
And faded winter cloaks;
Who came when dire disaster
Crowned lesser home mishap,
or younger claimants crowded
The delr maternal lap;
With curving arms wide open
To take the weary in,
With patient love 10 listen
To childish want or sin.
What better thing could angels
For childish sinners do,
Than listen to their story.
And bid them promise new?
think Of fircside angels
Upon whose faded hair
There shOuC no crown of glory
And yet the crown was there;
When tender love. true-bearted,
Forgave the wrongs it knew,
And patient voice gave answer
The days of trial through.
All, met the childish angel

FROM Nebraska City Press THE late
rise in the Missouri River leaves many
changes behind it. For twenty-four years
no such volume of water filed its channel
or overfowed its banks. The food of
1914 wrecked the hopes of many river
towns and changed materially the bed of
the river in places. Large districts Of
bottom-land were engulfed and the course
to where forests grew before. From
Omaha to the mouth of the Kansas, the
changes were remarkable. What has
been in nature is always possible-aHd
populous towns are now washed by the
current of the mighty river whose sites
were once far inland The effects of the
flood upon its subsidence is a matter of
great interest to the people Of the valley"

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Drawing Class i'm the Public


Editor Star: The Board OF Trustees have
organized drawing class in the public schools
Of this city, and have engaged a teacher, whom,
we suppose, our parents pay, and only two or
three out Of each of the higher schools of the
District get the benefit of the instruction. And
perhaps they have been taking drawing lessons
before, and others who intend to make il a busi-
ness hereafter, have 70 do without this ad van
tage because thew don't know how to draw as
well as others. The way they chose the boy
who wanted TO learn drawing, and told them to
bring specimens, and those who had been draw
ing in book brought them, and they, OF course,
had the best specimens. Now, why can't they
arrange it so that every one who will take an
interest in 1t can learn. The way to find this
out Is to ask the ones who will take lessons after
school hours, and see how many you will find.
