HOW TO ANSWER "MASHEkS'
NOTES.

hOW ~ aNoW En- MhoiiTho y
NOTES.
There lives in st. Louis very sensible
old German named Muller, who keeps a
store. He has daughter named Nina.
Not long ago she attracted the attention
of one of those unfortunate creatures
called "mashers,7 so called because their
noses need MASKING about ten times a
day. He found out where she lived, and
next day an unkempt urcbin brought
Miss Muller a personal note, marked
strictly confidential" The contents Of
the note were to the effect that he loved
her for herself alone. The following
postscript was added:
P. S.-That my darling make no mis-
take, remember that | wear light pair
of pants and dark out-away coat. In
my right hand will carry small cans,
and in my left cigar.
Yours forever,
ADoLPHUs.
As the urchin said he was told to wait
for an answer, Miss Muller took the note
to her father, and requested him to write
an answer. The old man did so, stating
that his daughter would be at the ap-
pointed place at the time specified by
proxy, he, her father, having authority to
represent her at the proposed caucus.
The postscript read as follows;
p. S.-Dot my son may make no mish-
takes, will be dreshed in mine shirt
sleeves. Iyill wear in mine right hand a
Club; in mine left hand will wear six
shooter, As calibre. You will recognize
me py de way bats you on de head. a
goople dimes twice NIT the Club. Wait
for me on de corner, as have Something's
imbordant to inform you nit.
Your trent.
HEINRICH MULLER.
For some unexplained reason, Adol-
phus was not on hand when he was want
ed, much to the grief Of the old man, who
meant all that he wrote.

The Dear Old Woods.
BY LOUISE V. BOYD.

A strip of woodland in a mountain glen
Holds in my heart holy place Away;
] come from 1t when awake at night,
wander there in many dream by day.
know the secret that its hawthorn keeps;
know the sorrow thrilling through It's pine;
The voiceless visions of its yiolets.
The Joy In al its buttercaps ashine.
In the old times those beamy buttercups
Were purest gold, the coinage of the SUM-
Their mother country-and knew of them
Legends more sweet than poet ever spun.
In the old times like, mimic meteors.
The sunbeam-shnt tles, through the leafy looms
VI beech ana maple, wove me st wonderous webs,
In ngures fashioned out of lights and glooms;
Wove gory-blazoned banners, Haunting far,
And Melted hangings for the misty doors
Leading to Elhand, fabricated then
Strange phantom carpets, for strange fairy floor
OF the old woods the music echoes still,
Deep In my heart, and not one tone has died;
The red-bird's carroll and the robbins song.
The crickets chirp; along the streamlet side
hear them yeti hear the breezes, too.
Murmur and murmur endless melody
About the far-otf stars, and other lands
AND streams unmeasured running to the sea.
Over that lovely scene the loving sky
Bends, as OF yore, and blossom odors go,
On viewless wings abroad and fair ferns bend
Where dusky shadow-sheltered moses grow.
Forever green, forever beautiful
Among the mist wresthed mountains, far away
The old wood lies, and seems like holy ground
10 one who dreams of it by night and day.
