A Change Of Sentiment.

The newspaper editor who has been

of the land gulped down dime novels of
the blood and thunder sort al feel bet
ter. Achange Of sentiment has already
betrayed itself, and there is reason to
hope that s'One-Eyed Dick" and "Dead-
Shot jim" will soon be out of print.
Yesterday a lad Of fourteen, who has
devoured about a thousand five and ten
cent novels during the last year, en-
tered a Woodward-avenue news-store,
and when the clerk handed him down
s.The Black Demon Of the Prairies,"
and ether late publications of the sort,
he turned away with a sigh and re-
marked:
81 don't carr for 'em any more"
"Why, what's the matter:?"
.sWell, l read Injun stories and run
away to become an lnjun-slayer. Dad
brought me back and whaled me half
to death. I read pirate stories and
shipped on a schooner for Buffalo and
almost died of sea-sickness. l read
hunting stories, but there's nothing, to
hunt around here except cats. I've
tried to be a trapper, but the only game
l ever caught was the milkman, and
he's laying for me yet. kinder wanted
to be a train-robber, but the trains
wouldn't stop to be robbed, and when
1 read of boy heroes and looked around
to save rich girls in a runaway coupe OF
old men from the river there v was
any chance. I'm going to change and
read something else"
''Well, what shall it be?"
II want something about a boy who
began low down and worked up. He
mustn't rush into any burning houses,
ave any stores from being robbed, dis.
cover any plots to blow up steamboats,
or save any old women from mad dogs.
He must be just like the rest of US
have headaches, get licked, hate to gel
out of bed, fight his brothers and steal
sugar and take it to bed to eat"
The dealer couldn't find such a book,
and the lad went out with the remark
that nobody seemed to care to write
anything for boys, and that he guessed
he'd have to get a pair of bones and 8
song book and become a song-and
dance man. Who can write a boy'l
book which will reflect the characters
tics and adventures of the modern bow

Poisoned by Polka. Dot Shirts.

Mrs. Cortes Peak, the wife of a fire.
man, is the victim of serious and malig-
nant blood poisoning. Last week while
cutting bread a slip of the knife made a
small and harmless scratch upon her
left hand. Before the wound had per-
fectly healed, and while engaged in
washing some Of the new regulation
"polka-dot" shirts, her hand was seized
with a sharp, singing pain, accompa-
MED with rapid swelling. DIR. Capener
was called, and pronounced it a dam
gerous case of blood-poisoning. The
arm to the finger tips was swollen to
twice its normal size, and heroic treat
ment and sever landings were the only
~life-savingg resorts. Though still suffer-
ing, she is thought to be out of danger.

A happy man am L;
1t makes me gay to see each day
The sun get high.
And when the fields of corn
Show many a waving row,
And tickled earth seems, In her mirth.
To laugh-"Hoe! hOe!"
And neighbors hail me oft,
At work at early morn,
And Jokes let tly-I naught reply;
Town the corn. :
Kind words i speak at morn
And when my work is through;
At morn, GOOD day!" at night I say:

For, when 1 look around,

Above the ground.

Our Young Folks.
TOMMY AND THE PLUMs.

TOMMY AND THE PLUMS.
It was a summer morning.
Said Tom: I'm have some fun"
He started for the orchard
As fast as he could run.
He stood beneath the plum-tree,
And this is what he said:
"Those plums must be delicious,
They look so ripe and rcd.
eff I could only reach 'em
I'd have a splendid treat.
It's very tantalizing:
They must be very sweet"
Then Tommy jumped his highest,
But couldn't reach the limb
On which the plums were hanging,
And seemed to mock at him.
They nodded and they nodded
And they really seemed to say:
I'VE know you can o reach us,
And you'd better go and play"
The very leaves seemed laughing
As they rustled overhead,
Till Tom got tired and angry,
And this Is what he said:
III really wouldn't touch one
If it vas in my power;
They can't be worth the trouble:
They must be green and souri,"

mand and control, hereditary as are all
generic traits, good or bad and which
imposes itself on the consciousness Of
all men. This, be it for the lettering

democratic, ruled, leyeled, and ballot
boxed civilization forbidden forever;
and the fustan hercdities of quickly

ever so many times told, will never be
other than curious caricature of
