a CORRESPONDENT of the San Fran
cisco Bulletin says that Alaska is a
pleasant country to live in, notwith-
standing all polar bear and iceberg sto-
ries. The climate of the islands, and
of all that part of the mainland that
is bathed by the warm ocean currents
from Japan, is remarkably bland and
temperate, and free from extremes of
heat or cold throughout the year. There
is a great deal of rainy weather, but it is
of good quality, mild in temperature,
gentle in its fall, filling the fountains
of the deep, cool rivers, feeding the
MOSES and trees, and keeping the whole
land fresh and fruitful Out of 147
days, beginning May II of this year,
rain fell on sixty-five days, and forty
three were cloudy; but on some of
these days the rain lasted only few
minutes, and hardly any could be called
stormy or dismal. The wettest of this
weather seems to be perfectly healthy and
there is no mildew in the house. Thun-
der is rarely heard-a flash and clap,
faint and far away, once in two or three
years. The cause of so much rain is
found in the vapor-laden winds from
ia pan.

THE ASS IN THE LIONS SKIN,

THE ASS IN THE LIONS SKIN,
| An ass havin' robbed a dead lion OF
his skin, put it on hisself, an roamed
about the forest, frightenin' all the fool
ish animals he met. By an by he met
an old sagacious fox, an tried to brighten
him also, but the fox wuz an old 'un, an
no sooner heard the sound of his voice
than he exclaimed: "My Christian
friend, I might have been frightened if
1 had not heard you bray. However,
having heard the music of your chin, i
of course understand that you are quite
harmless, quite harmless Hardly had
the cunnin' fox uttered these words then
the ass whirled end for end an kicked
him into the middle of mex week.
Who can say what a day may bring
forth?
THE MONKEY AND HER OFFSPRING.
Jupiter caused notices to be published
in the weekly newspapers informin' the
beasts of the forest that he would. durin
the holidays, give a grand fair, at which
would be awarded premium of $50 in
gold to the one whose offspring should
be deemed the handsomest-25 cents
single admission, season tickets, $3.50.
The monkey KEN with the rest, an pre-
scented with all of a mothers love and
tenderness, a broken-nosed, pigeon-toed,
rheumy-eyed, idiotic-lookin' baby
monkey as a candidate for the premium,
payin' therefor an entrance-fee of S15.
The introduction of this sad-eyed child
of misfortune brought down great
aughter and ridicule upon the bald yet
devoted head of the parent, who,
adjustin' her sun-bonnet, said with much
composure: " They laugh best as laugh
last;' and then, clasping her son to her
bosom, continued: 90 little George por-
gle is its muzzer's own little, pittie, rosie,
cosie, dosie, an will scoop in the pre-
MUM like MICE The premium wuz,
1 regret to say, awarded elsewhere, an
the fond mother immeditely denounced
the whole affair as miserable swindle,
gotten up with intent to defraud by
handful of horrid old bachelors that
couldn't tell beautiful child from yell
low dog, an so sayin' she flounced out
of the room, pausin' on the threshold
long enough to make faces at the COM
mittee, an inform Jupiter that if she
ever caught him under a cocoanut-tree
his scandalous old head would pay the
penalty.

Daisies.

The hills are faint in a cloudy blue,
That loses itself where the sky bends oven
The wind i shaking the orchard through,
And sending CULVER through knee deep
clover.
The air is sweet with a strange perfume,
That comes from the depths of the wood
land places,
The fields are hid in n wealth of bloom,
And white with the sweep of the ox-eye
daisies.
And further down, where the brook runs
through,
Where the ferns are cool in the prisoned
shadow,
We still may see through the morning dew,
The swell and dip of the daisied meadow.
And then when the wind across it blows,
And the wavering lines of silver follow,
We catch the CLEAN of her heart of gold,
While over her skins the feet winged swal-
low.
Clear and simple in white and gold,
Meadow blossom of sunlit spaces,
The field is full as it well can hold,
And white with the drift of the ox-eye
daisies.

The Impossible.

Man can not draw water from an empty wei
Or trace the stories that gossip tell,
Or gather the sounds of u pcaling bell.
Man never can stop the pillows roar,
Nor chain the winds till they blow no more,
Nor drive true love from Il maiden's door.
Man can not o'ertake n fieetinS lie,
Change his wheat to IA field of rye,
Or call back years that have long gone by.
Man never can bride old Father Time,
Gain the height of "a peak he can not climb,
Or trust the hand that hath done "A crime
Man can not "a cruel word recall.
Fetter n thought, be it great or small.
Or honey extract from drop of gall.
Man never can backward turn the tide,
Or count the stars that are scattered wide,
Or find in n fool trusty guide.
Man can not reap fruit from worthless seed,
Rely for strength ON a broken reed,
Or gain n heart he hath caused to bleed
Nun never can hope true peace to win,
Pleasure without and joy within,
Living "A thoughtless life of sin.
