| The ORIGINAL OF J. HoRNER.-Little
Jack Horner is so indelihly associated in
the Anglo-Saxon mind with the popular
pie Of this period Of the year that it is
interesting to hear that he is believed to
have been a member of the family of his
name last seated at Mells near Frome, in
| SOmersetshire. A will dated 1910 con-
tans requests to John Horner, the
younger" and in the previous year, at
/ the destruction of the great abbey of
Glastonbury, 20 eloquently alluded to oy
Froude, the Horners clawtd up a consid-
cradle share of the good things going, so
much so that an old distich runs: "Hofn-
er, Popham, Wyndham and THYME,
when the Abbot came out they went in"
The plum which Jack pulled out is sur
missed to have been a handsome share of
/ the monastic estate, satirieally alluded to
by wag, who certainly never dreamed
that nearly 400 years later every child
on this continent would be familiar with
his rhyme. The Horners are still living
| at Mells.

Besides that, they all invited you to

you would run the risk of catching the

WAITING.

Till from my veiled brows shall fall
This battling cloud, this weary thrall,
Which holds me now from knowing all
Until my spirit sight shall see
Into all Reing's mystery,
See what it really is to be!
/ wait,
While robbing days in mockery fling
Such cruel loss athwart my Spring,
And life flags on with broken wing;
Believing that kindlier fate
The patient soul will compensate
For all it loses, ere too late.
wait!
The Summer of the soul is long,
Its harvests yet shall round me thrOng,
In perfect pOmp of sun and song.
In StOrmleSS mornings, yet to be,
I'll pluck, from life's full-fruited tree,
The joy to-day denied to me.

Of the German bank, was witness before
the Senate Sub. Committee on Labor and
Education to-day He testified that the
hours OF labor here were shorter than in
Germany. Employers should be urged to
fud time to study the interests OF their en-
ployes. II this was the case there would
not be 40 much cause for strikes. Work
ngmen In America did better work than
those of Germany, but their homes were
not as comfortable, and, as con.
sequence, they were dissatisfied
after they got through with their
days work. II ene-half OF the millions
deposited In savings banks by workingmen
was devoted TO the establishment OF homes
the working people would be more content
ed and the community great deal better
of. Moral training wesld do more TO pre-
vent strikes than Legislative action. When
employers treated their vorkingmen in
kiudlier spirit there would he
thought, be no necessity for trades unions.
Laborers here, he considered, were
well paid. There should be industrial
schools In which girls and women
could be instructed In household
economy. The witness said that all COM
binstions had al injurious influence on the
consumer, bat he could not see
