taken just as We stood, bya photographer
who followed tho army to take sketches
whenever no could. 1t was afterwards
stransferred to canvas. The incident which

Mark Twain was once Il reporter
on the San Francisco Call. One day
the city editor detailed him to report
Il riot among the stevcdores along the
w@t"r front, with orders Ia get the
facts and make 4 column. Yeas"
said Twain, ''hmt how can | get them ?
There's no street railroad down that
way. You wouldn't want a fellow to
walk n mile to see a couple of 'laon-
shoremen fight, would you?" One
day, after Twain had been on the pa
per six months, thr managing editor
remarked TO him that he was out OF
his line as II reporter and was capable
of better things, and that in fact, he
didn't suit. ''Yaas," said Twain.

Mans inhumanity to ma makes

Nursing her wrath to keepit warm.
IT'S sweet to hear the watch-dog's

Between two worlds life hovers Ike
antar upon the horizon verge.
"Tis distance lends enchantment to

Like angels visits, few and far be-

His back to the field and his feet to
the foe.
Procrastinatien is the thief of time.
A gilded halo lowering round de-
gcay.
The thunder, conscious of the new
command, rumbles reluctant DE our
fallen houses.
They also serve who only stand
and wait.
The stern joy which warriors feel
in foemen worthy of their steel.
A little round, fat, oily man OF
God.
His pity gave ere charity began.
Even his failings leaned to virtues

To party gave mp what was meant
for mankind.
To point a moral or atorn q tale.
A little bench o. needless bishops,
here and there a chancellor in EN-

Made a sunshine in the shady
place.
Arid tongues that syllable mems

As idle as q painted ship upon a

of the eartl currents. So long a
the cat walks over fences running
north to south his axis is coIncidcn'

They pass smoothly through his spi-

no ~ptrceplible effect upon him.
When. however, he tries to walk on a

all to pieces in their efforts to force

anguish, he stops, cIings ~fiercely to
