Bunting went home 10 very sober

were not ON good terms. In fact, she
was a widow aud poor, aud he bad not
treated her with the kindness she had

Bunting was the real April Fool, after

ANOTHER nEAL ROMANCE.

Many years ago there was young
fellow named, Bigelow sent by bis father
to Yale college. The father was very rich,
and the youngster lived in grand style at
the university. Suddenly the old man
broke and had to withdraw bis son from
college. The boy, however, fell the me-
cessity OF an education, and determined
to have one anyhow. lie therefore, went
to work and learnded trade as
machinist. While be was az this work
his old associates cut him. The young
ladies with whom be had been great
fayorite, failed to recognize him when
they met him.
One day when going from bic work he
met wealthy young lady who had been
his friend. He bad bis tin dinner pail
over bis arm, aud supposed she would
cut him as all the rest bad done. She
smiled and pleasantly, addressed him az
Tom, aud insisted that he should call aud
see her as be bad always done. She said,
tbere.is no change in you as far as am
concerned The years rolled on. The
workboy became Immensely wealthy,
and IL now the mayor Of New Haven,
with an Income Of 100000 year and
owner Of factory in which fifteen hund-
red men and women are employed. The
young girl grew TO womanhood aud mar
ried. Tier husband borrowed large
sum Of money Of Mr. Bigelow, aud died
before he had paid Il, leaving bis family
with but little property. Mr. Blgeiow
sent with bis coincidence, receipted note
for her husbands indebtedness, and now
the son Of Bigelsw, the millionaire, Is
going to marry the daughter Of the wo-
man who was faithful apd true to tie

Turned to the skies;

Kings climb TO eminence
Over mems graves;

There, at his side?

Tight ere he died;-

Smooth the folds out and see,

Only the tremulous

Just few ruddy drops.

Tnv guardian love our shield;
As when the storm of battle lowered,
Our courage WAS in Thee.
And for one country and one iiaS.
We fought on land and sea:
A,we have ,nourncd with aching hearts
The love of comrades brave,
And gather here TO scatter flowers
Upon each cherished grave;
Somu-ter back our dead that they
With us our ranks may ill,
And stand in glad fraternity,
Shoulder 10 shoulder still.
So give US faith in human rights
In justice and in Thee.
That we may hold these once our foes
In Christian charity.
So make each patriot soldiers grave,
\ sacred shrine to be,
That high altar it may prove
OF stalwart loyalty.
Then when the great inspection day
Shall sound its buglc call,
May we in heavens grand parade.
Give answer one and all.

ico peak, that has an ebb and flow that
is quite singular The basin is about
TWENTY-FIVE feet in diameter, and IN
the morning is always full of water,
but in the evening is perfectly dry and
empty. The water Is cold and ap-
parently Of good quality, and the
basin gradually fills to overfiow'ng,
when it as slowly recedes, efervescing
violently all the time. Tie discovery
was made by a prospector, who passed
it in the morning when full (the basin
was full. we mean, and on returning
at night it was empty. He watched
it.with the result mentioned. 1t is
