Look here! | don't want to button

but if you have minutes time, LET
me tell you something that may bene
fit some of your readers" "Well, what
is it?-we remarked to our old friend
and subscriber as he stopped us il
front of the Boody House yesterday
morning. 81 was only going to remark
that those Hamburg Drops, of which
you publish a notice in your paper, is
really the best Blood Mediciue in the
country; tried it, and so have some
of my friends, for serious ailments, and
I'll be hanged if it aint entitled to the

ASLEEP IN SCHOOL.

ny LULU 81. W.
Through the warm long hours littl,
learner
Strovc to straighten out the puzzling sum
Little fingers, Cramped and liStless, helC
the pencil,
But the column was so long the answer
wouldn't come.
Just outside, the happy birds were sing
ing
What have they to do with abe?
just beyond, the poppy-buds were swing
They don't have to count out one, two
three.
High and bright the sun peeps through the
window;
lie could sail through all the big blue sky
No one kept on telling him to STUDY
II you don't, you can't play by-and-by."
Drowsily the tiny student murmured,
Lulling half to sleep the little maid;
See her golden curls are nodding, nod
ding
On her desk her dropping head is laid
Wondering looks and smothered laugh
arouse her;
Conscious;red the round, soft checks have
turned;
Very straight she holds herself awhile
then
Low she bends DER lesson not half learned
Something heavy weighs upon her eyclids
And the figures on her slate will keep
Running in together, blurring strangely,
And again-swcet GOldlOck's asleep.
Crossed above her slate her arms are folded
Meath a shining veil of lOOscning hair;
Deaf to laughing schoolmatcs, with the
robin,
Outside in the sunshine-she is there
80 Thou, Great Master of us ALL" the
teacher prayed,
In his brief twilight hour Of quiet thought
when grow weary Of the burdens laid
Upon me that the gathering years have
brought,
I.ct me, too, in Thy tender mercy fall
asleep
Let me grow deaf to murmurs Of the earth,
And blind to sights that veX my fading
eyes,
And careless of the sounds of woe or mirth.
"Whcn |, old and faint Of courage, ever
Get the answer to a problem wrong,
Let me, in slumbcrs that divinely thrall
me,
Forget it in the sunshine and the song~

Kan 81 was the first lady who carried
fan. She lived in ages which are past
and for the most forgotten. and she was
the daughter of a Chinese mandarin.
Who ever saw a mandarin, even on a
tea-chest, without his fan? In China
and Japan to this day everybody has a
fan; and there are fans of all sorts for
everybody The Japanese waves his
fan at you when he meets you, by way
of greeting, and the beggar who solicits
for aims has the exceedingly small coin
"made on purpose for charity presented
to him on the tip of the fan.
In ancient times, amongst the Greeks
and Romans, fans seem tn have been
enormous; they were generally made of
feathers, and carried by slaves over the
heads of their masters and mistresses,
to protect them from the sun, or waved
about before them to stir the air.
Catherine de Medicis carried the first
folding fan ever seen in France; and in
the time of Louis the Fourteenth the
fan was gorgeous thing, often covered
with jewels, and worth a small fortune.
In England they were in use in the time
of Henry the Eighth. All his many
wives carried them, and doubtless wept
behind them. A fan set in diamonds
was once given to Queen Elizabeth upon
New Years day.
The Mexican feather fans which Cor
tez had from MOntezuma were marvels
of beauty; and in Spain large black
fan is the favoritc. 1t is said that the
use of the fan is as carefully taught in
that country as any other branch of
education, and that by a well known
code of signals a Spanish lady can carry
on u long conversation with any one,
especially an admirer.
The japanese criminal of rank is po-
litely executed by means of fan. On
being sentenced to death he is presented
with a fan, which he must receive with
a low bow. and as he bows presto! the
eXecutioner draws a sword and cuts his
head off. In fact, there is a fan for
every occasion in Japan.
