When am dead you will not quite forget?
Dear love. you will not quite loigct your own,
who sleeps so dreamlcssly, with silent lips,
Under the nOwers the gold.bce tlroning, sips
Low down beneath the grasses tangled grown? {?
Even tho some ihirer head may lie upon
The throlb ing. passionate heart that was min
own,
Fen tho some darker eyes look into yours
And swceter lips press close with sorteres
lures,
And she has all my kingdom, crown.and thton,
Oh love, ont there beneath The violets,
Beyond the reach of sin and toll and fret,
win lie the truest heart man e'er won,
The deepest, tenderest loyc,-unspent, undone-
oh, say, dear love, you will not quite forget?
Y on will not quite forget?

Mr.. Miller, one of the pillars of a
Wisconsin Baptist church, was lately
tried on the charge of irreligious con-
duct in attending negro minstrel
performance. His defence was that he
started for temperance lecture, but
accidentally got into the wrong hall,
and did not discover his mistake until
the show began, when his carnal delight
in the entertainment overcame his
moral scruples. He admitted that be
ought TO have withdrawn the moment
he discovered where he was, but his
weakness for fun got the better of him.
He was let of with reprimand.

Good day, genlIcmcn.n


"Good day, gentlemen"
A very nice-looking young man stood
in The doorway of the editorial room
AMI gazed in a benign way at the
occupants of the apartment. 1gH
"Would il be possible for me to sell
the Tribune storyr he continued.
"What kind of tale have you ground
outP" asked the horse reporter. aa
"The story" said the visitor, ''is one
in which the triumph of love is depict
ed"
at isn't one of those. And as Ethe,
stood there in the soft moonlight, her
1.-the figure sharply outlined against
the Western sky, there was a loud
crash in Coastclfr Castle, and the girl
knew that her mother had dropped the
doughnut jar kind of stories, is it be-
because they won't do" said the horse
reporter.
"There is nothing at all about dough-
nuts in this story" replied the visitor,
haughtily, "but if you like l can read
portion of it,"
"All right"
"Where shall begin?
"Anywhere," replied the horse re-
porter. Suppose you give us the last
sentence of it,"
"1 should hardly think"
"Oh, never mind about that. We do
all the thinking for young authors
that come up here"
The visitor seated himself and read
as follows:
"For answer Gladys's beautiful eyes
dropped, but she gave him both her
hands: and there under the heavy
fruited trees, the golden bees flying
about them, and the air filled with their
dreamy monotone, he drew her upon
his breast, and raising her long ring
lets TO his lips, kissed them reverently.''
"That's the last sentence, is'it?" ask
ed the horse reporter.
"Yes, SIR"
''I should hope it was. II makes me
tired TO read about such ducks"
"JVhy, l don't see" began The
author.
"Of course, you don't. Probably
you were the hero of the novel. Did
you ever hear of Thompson's colt?''
"The visitor admitted his ignorance
concerning that historical animal.
"Well, Thompson's COLT" continued
the horse reporter, "was such an etern-
al idiot that he swan across the river
10 get drink. Not that fellew in your
story is dead match for him."
s'I don't understand"
"Probably not. 1t is not expected
of literary people. But will tell YOU.
This young fellow in your story is ont
under an apple tree holding girls
hands, isn't hep
J EYES,"
"And, according to the story, be
raised her long ringlets to his lips, and
kissed them reverently, That right ~
"Certainly."
"Now, what do you think of young
, man that would go nibbling around a
l girls back hair when she had her face
} with her? Such stories do not possess
the fidelity to nature that should ever
| characterize the work of genius. No
: my genial imbecile, you cannot get the
weight of this powerful journal on the
! side of any such Young man as your
story depicts. We were once youug
and up to the apple-tree racket our
selves"
Good day." said the author, starting
for the door.

A suddenly rich and decidedly vulgar
dame advertised for goyerness, and
when refined young lady presented
herself, told her that she would pay
good wages, but that the governess
should not eat with the family nor
associate with its company. The dame
was considerably taken aback when the
young lady simply replied, "Thank
you; I'll come them"

Josh Billings Philosophy.

If you will sit down and wait,
young man, at least one-half of the
good things of life will at some time
eddy around near you, while the more
you chase them the more they will
break into run.
All of natures works are part of
a perfection of plan. She makes no
mistakes, creates no vacancy and
guesses at nothing.
Ideas are what wins but if man
hain't got but one he is very apt to
run that one into the ground, and
take himself along with it.
Laughter proves nothing. Wise
men laugh, and idiots grin all the
time.
Cunning is a weak imitation of
wisdom, and is liable at emmy time to
merge into fraud.
Happiness has no abiding place,
but often is very near at hand, like
the old woman's spectacles. After
hunting for them high and low, she
found them at last safe Oh her nose.
Gravity is becoming to Il fool at all
times, but only to a wise man on state
occasions.
Very many seek knowledge, not so
much for the truth as for the specula-
ton there is in it.
Heroism is simple, and yet it is
rare. Every one who does the best
he can is a hero.
Beauty is a dangerous gift. The
vanity it inspires, and the base it gets
for it's possessors are not to be en-
We'd.
Charity makes no mistakes that she
can be charged with.
Good breeding is the only thing that
can make fool endurable.
Servitude is so unnatural that an
honest servant is the rarest Of all
things.
If man has got the right kind of
religion he can pick up creed any
where that will fit it.
Incidence is quiet malady, but it
has eat up more foundations and
tipped over more superstructures than
wild ambition ever has.
Abstinence should be the excep-
ton, and temperance the rule.
There is a great art in knowing how
to give without creating an obligation.
As selfish and ill-bred as the mass
of mankind are, / prefer to live with
them rather than 90 into solitude and
try live with myself.
! Gratitude is a word that YOU will
find in the dictionary, but you will not
find much Of it anywhere else.

A famous scientist says there is Of
ten a marked personal resemblance
between husband and wife after they
have been married awhile. We have
noticed that fact. Some time ago a
gallant Illinois man, whose eyes were
blue, married a jealous black-eyed
woman and in less than year he had
black eyes himself.
