Tho Children We Keep.

The children kept coming, ono by one.
TIL tho boys were FIVE and the girls wore
three,
And the big brown house was alive with run
From tho basement floor to tho old roof
tree.
like garden flowers the little ones grew,
Nurtured and trained with the tenderost
care;
Warmed by loves sunshine, bathed in its
dew,
They bloomed into beauty, like roses rare.
But one of tho boys grew weary ono day,
And, leaning his head on his mothers
breast,
He said, 81 am tired and cannot play;
Let mo sit awhile on your knee and rest"
She Graded him close in hor fond embrace,
She hushod him to sleep with her sweetest
song,
And npturous love still lightofhis face,
When his spiri; had Joined the heavenly
throng
Then the eldest girl, with hor thoughtful oyo',
Who stood wherc "thc brook and tho river
meet"
Stole softly away into Paradise
Ere "thc river" had reached her slender
feet,
While the fathers eyes on tho grave arc
bent,
The mother looked upward beyond tho
skies;
"Our treasures" she whispered, "woro only
lent"
Our darlings were angels in carth's dis.
guso."
The years flew by and tho children began
With longing to think Of the world out
side;
And as each, in his turn. became man,
The boys proudly went FROM the fathers
side.
The girls were women so gentle and fair
That lovers were speedy to WOO and to
win;
And with omngc blossoms in brniici hair,
The old home was lett new home to
begin.
80, one by one, the children have gone
The boys were five, and the girls were
three;
And the bg brown house Is gloomy aud
lone;
With but two oil folks for its company
They talk to each other about the past,
AS they sit together in cvcui5c,
And say, call the children we kept at last,
Are the boy and the girl who in childhood
died"

Swimming in High Attitudes.

Tenderfeet should know. and all
others should not forget, that it Is
more difficult TO keep adoat in a high
altitude than in a lower altitude. That
accounts for the numerous cases of
drowning even in comparatively small
streams Young men who could
swim with great facility in the east
have found out to their sorrow, and
too late, that they could not do the
seme in Colorado. The light atmos-
phere considerably reduces the buoyant
power Of water. This Is the case to
remarkable degree on Lake Tahoe, the
highest body Of water on the oonti-
nent In this water even pine wood
sinks. and when man Is drowned his

4 great social and diplomatic scan
dal has just transpircd from the actions
Of Lord Charley" ". Waddington.
the French minister 70 London. was
given a special entertainment and
dinner At the house II noble lady At
her summer retreat at Cowes. on the
isle Of Wight The occasion was
graccd hy the presence Of the Prince
Of Wales The French minister was
accompanied by Admiral Keppel
Everything went well and merrily
until after the ladies retired from the
table and the cigars and light wines
were brought in for the gentlemen.
The conversation soon drifted to the
Chinese war and then a debate was
started by Lord Charles Beresford upon
the merits Of the English and French
navies. The hero Of Fort Merv grew
warm with wine. and he gradually be-
came very offensive in his remarks.
The efforts Of the Prince of Wales and
others to check him into decorum
served only TO make him pugnacious
He fell to ridiculing the entire French
feet, and wound up with the state |
ment that he could take the Condor,
the little gunboat with which he nosed
around Fort Merv during the bonn
bardment Of Alexandria, and chase
the whole French fleet in Chinese
waters away from the Amman coast.
NJ. waddington considered Lord Beres-
ford's conduct so extremely insulting
that he arose from the table. demanded
his carriage. and actually left the
house The hostess followed him. and
by the most earnest solicitations. final
ly persuaded him to refrain from going
10 a hotel and 10 re enter the house.
In the meantime the British oflcers/
present compelled Beresford 20 leave
the place, and such was the noble lords
resistance Of this treatment that his
ejectment practically amounted 70
being kicked out. Every effort was made
to hush up the matter but nothing
could suppress NJ waddington's indIg-
nant denunciations Of the treatment to.
which he had been subjected, and the
affair is the scandal Of London.
