4 QUESTION FOR THE BACHEL ORS.
by BECKY SHARP.

Where do bachelors go-when they die9
Where do the bachelors gOl
DO their souls take fight to the realms on high,
Or to the darker regions bclowl
Old maids with their follies and whims
Climb up the golden stairs
Where do old bachelors 90 with their sins
Sweet echo answere, whercl
When from this drcary world they skip,
Do they think of their l-spent youth!
Do they ever think of the rosy lips
They never kissed i'm truth
No curtain lectures, no little storms,
To burst over them now and then,
No making up in each others arms,
To love, but to quarrel again.
They live on earth in n negative state,
In hunger and thirst and cold
In a state of unrest in the tide of faith,
a poverty of the soul.
They call it happiness, because
They enjoy it--and so it is
For It's merely short suspension of laws
That punish, and that is bliss.
Old bachelors 90 to--well, when they die,
We know where the bachelors g0
Old maids shall pile the cmbers high
Far down in their quarters below.
ave might have been married." they cry aloud
And look up from the regions dark,
"Then We could swing on rosy cloud
And play on golden harp"

THE BUDDHIST SOLOMON.
A COUPLE OF STORIES OF ANOTHER WISE
MAN OF THE EAST.
London Times.]


We shall give, as q small specimen of
what Schiefer has brought to light
from the canonical books of the Bud
dhsts, two stories, both in the spirit of
the story of Solomon's judgment-thc
one in a more rudimentary, the other in
a more developed form.
"a man took off his boots and left
them on the shore before he went to
bathe in the river. While he was bath
ing another man came, took the boots,
tied them round his neck and plunged
into the water When the first had
bathed he went on shore and looked
everywhere for his boots. What are
you looking for?' said the man in the
water. My boots he replied. "Where
are your boots p the other said. 1f you
have any, you should tie them round
your neck before you go into the water,
as have done Then the first said, But
the boots you have round your neck are
my boots Soon fight arose, and they
went before the king. The king COM
manded his ministers to settle their dis
putc, but after sitting in judgment the
whole day they went home tired in the
evening, and could not settle anything
Then clever woman, Visakha by name,
when she heard of the lawsuit, said,
what is the use of examining and cross
examining? Say to one man, Take this
boot and to the other, Take that boot
Then the real owner will say, why
should my pair of boots be divided ?
But the thief will say, What shall do
with one boot p The king followed her
advice, and the thief was discovered"
The next story approaches more close
ly to the Judgment of Solomon, and as
matter in dispute is settled without the
cruel order of the king to cut the child
in two, the Buddhist may eyen claim a
certain advantage over the SOmetic stO-
ry. "a householder married wife, and
when their marriage had remained child
less he married a second. When the
second wife became the mother of a son
she was afraid that the first wife would
hate and injure the child, and, ont of
love for her son, she agreed with her
husband that the first wife should be
the reputed mother of the boy. After a
time the husbNd died, and as the house
belonged to the son, the two wives began
to quarrel, which of them should live in
the house with her s0n. At last they
went before the king. the king COM
manded his ministers to settle the dis
pute, with the usual result that the
Judges could make nothing Of it. Then
the clever woman, Visakha, came in and
said: "What is the use of examining
and cross-examining these women? Tell
them that we do not know who the real
mother is, and that they must settle it
for themselves. Let both lay hold of
the boy and pull him with all their
might, and whoever can pull the hardest
can have the boy and the house. When
the tussel began, the child, being pulled
very hard, began to cry. Then the true
mother let him 60 and said: "Anyhow
if he is not torn to pieces and killed, l
shall sometimes be able to sec him But
the other woman tore him away with
violence. Then the violent woman was
beaten with rod and the true mother
was allowed to carry off her child.

THE BUSINESS BOOM.

A correspondent of The New York
Tribune, under date of Dover, N. Y. has
had an interview with an influential Dem
ocrat, and here is what he says:
I have always been earnest, active and
outspoken in my advocacy or opposition
to any principle, and l will only say that
I like General Hancock personally well
enough, but cannot and will not support
him on the platform adopted at Cincin-
natl. I will support General Garfield
and John Hill, the Republican Congress
ional nominee in this district, because
their party is committed to protective
tariff.
When man has, as I have, $40, 900
or $50, 900 investedin property which de-
pends for it's value on protection for labor,
he cannot sacrifice himself and what he
believes the interest of the country for
the sake of past political affiliations. |
have talked with many of my friends, and
they generally agree with me-
Further inquiry showed that Mr.. Jolley
was not alone in his belief, and that the
Republicans are more earnest and enthu-
siastic than for many years. Morris
county will give at least 600 majority for
Senator Potts, and about as much for the
national ticket. One Republican here
employs 900 workingmen, and, though
they were free to vote as they choose, they
have generally declared in favor of Gar
field and Arthur.

THE DEAR OLD GIRL.

Susan B. Anthony was born at South
Adams Mass. Feb. Is 1920 Her father
was Quaker, and cotton manufacturer.
In 1926 he removed to Washington coun-
ty, n. Y, and in 1916 to Rochester. Miss
Anthony was educated in small select
school IN her fathers house, and at a
boarding school in Philadelphia. For
fifteen years she taught school in New
York, at one-thirl the salary paid to men,
and there, it is said, she was taught the
lesson of women's rights. Since 1852
Miss Anthony has been one of the leaders
in the movement. She was also promi-
nently identified with the Temperance
cause as far back as 184S and in 1851
called a convention in Albany in that in
terest. With Mrs. E. G. Stanton she sue
ceeded in obtaining the admission of
women to educational and other conven-
tions, with the right to speak and vote,
and to be members of committees. From
1857 to 1866 she was an agent and a
faithful worker in the anti-slavery cause
Of recent years Miss Anthony has been
untiring in her efforts to secure the re-
cognition of women in the great nation
al political conventions. She had been
a lifelong champion of freedom, is an
able writer and speaker, and has always
sustained the highest reputation.
