He Had No Fun in Him.

One of the members of the Methodist

The teamster slid up and endeavored
to get backhold, but be had only just

A Discriminating Letter-Writer.
PHILADELPHIA Times,

When General Alexander Ogle served
Somerset's "frosty sons of thunder" in
the PENNSYLVANIA Legislature, it fell to
him to write, in hehaIf of the Demo-
cratic members, letter to General jack
son, then stepping across the Presiden-
tial threshold.
Such work of the scribe was a labor
OF love, and in submitting to the caucus
what he had written, Gen. Ose proudly
said:
"Gentlemen, and members of the
Democratic party, | hold in nv hand a
letter addressed by General Alexander
Ogle to General Andrew Jackson, and
have no hesitation in saying, gentlemen,
that it is Id able paper"
The members, gathering round, agreed
that the letter was just the thing to make
Old Hickory's heart thump with satis-
faction, and all except one, a dapper lit
tie Phladelphian, spoke words of praise.
This dandy OF the House, fling his
glasses and Scanning the page, with the
critics smirk, ventureh to remark:
pardon me, General, l do not wish
to assume to make suggestion to so
distinguished gentleman as yourself,
but | cannot refrain from saving that 1t
is CUSTOMARY in the East, and 1 may say
in almost all the civilized countries OF
Europe, to write With the capital 81 in
stead of the little Il in using the per-
sonal pronoun in epistolary correspon-
dence.'
General 0gIe drew down his heavy
brows, piercing the dan iy's marrow with
the fl cree shaft Of scoru that shot from
his eve.
"Sir," he said, beginning with hiss
and ending with roar, "when | write

of Wisconsin," said Mr.. Stephens, "told
me during the war of 1912 he was taken
prisoner with q number of others, and
the Indians were taking them out two

WORSHIP IN THE WOODS.


How rich the embroidered carpet spread
On either side the common way;
Azure and purple. gold and red,
Russet and white, and green and gray,
With shades between,
Woven with light in looms unseen.
The dandelion's disk of gold
With luster decks the meadows green.
And multiplied million fold
The daisy lights the verdant scene;
The blue mints plumes
Invite tie bees to their perfumes.
A wrinkled ribbon seems the road,
Unspooled from the silent hills afar;
Rest, like an angel, lifts its load
And in my path lets down the bar,
And here it brings
A lease of life on healing wings.
A summer leisure of the cloud
That wanders with its trunpeter,
The wind, is mine; no wrangling crowd
Annoys the humble worshiper
In the white tent
Beneath listening armament.
Duplicating on the ambient air
Sweet songs of sacred music rise.
And now voice distinct in prayer
Like the lark's hymn, reaches to the skies,
And the "Amen"
Is echoed from the hills and glen.
The wood vast cathedral seems,
Its dome the overarching sky;
The light through trembling branches stream
From open windows lifted high;
Under the frs
Soft shadows shield the worshipers.

A tall dark man, whose close-cropped

swords with De Malet, who, feeling at

warily on the defensive. The Russian

combatants, breathing hard and setting
their teeth, struck, parried advanced and
retreated by turns. At length De Ma
