NEoLA.

On dark, green MOSES, cool and shadowed
deep,
Half hid in waves of lilies tall and red
Nicola lies, her soft eyes drowsed by
sleep
One bare, white rounded arm beneath
her head.
A rayished bar OF golden sunshine sleeps
Athwart the yellow glory of her hair,
And all his soft entangled bed he sleeps
In dyes of deeper color-rich and rare.
The tips of lashes kiss each warm, flushed
cheek,
The bosom, full and white. moves soft
and slow,
The wet red lips are parted as to speak
While drowsy smiles enchanted come
and go.
One loose hand holds scarlet poppy bud,
Fit emblem of Neola's fatal power,
10 lull the stir and actions of men, blood,
And lay them swooning at her feet one
hour.
Intoxicated by her close embrace,
ForgeSsul of the world, of duty, care:
Till smiling cold she turns away her face
And they awake to madness and de
spair.

The Generosity of wendell phillin..

Wendell Phillips not only surpassed all
other platform orators in eloquence, but
he surpassed all in habits of generosity.
He would never take more than his fair
proportion of the house receipts, no matter
what had been the stipulated compensa-
ton for his lecture. remember that after
an extremely stormy night, when his au-
dience was only an average, that handed
him SIPS in roll, saying, "Your fee, Mr..
Phillips!" He quietly answered: "What
were your receipts last nights" told him
that we did not rely on casual tickets, but
on course tickets sold beforehand. He
opened the roll, put $50 in his pocket, and
handed back the rest, saying: "My bnsi-
ness is to assist, not to destroy" His
habits were those of courteous, unobtru-
sive interest in every person and enter
prise. He never forgot an intelligent host
or hostess; but years after meeting they
would receive from him some remem-
brancer, in the way of book, or picture, or
letter.-Cor. Globe-Democrat

First Beer on American Soil.

William Penn and Jacobus were the
two men who first brewed beer on Amer
lean soil. Jacobus built his brewery in
1914, on what is now the corner of Pearl
street and Old Slip, New York, where he
also established beer garden. He after
ward became the first burgomaster, and
his beer and justice gave equal satisfac-
tion to the citizens of New Amsterdam
Penn's brewery was at Pennsburg, Bucks

of his virtues. A hundred years later that

ordered his man to make fire in his
room. The latter dragged towards tn,

word ' Firc-woOd" was painted in
large letters. In answer to Ole Bulls
aston shed inquiry the servant told him
that the box had been delivered that
day ut noon by his masters orders. as
he thought. On being broken open the
box was found to contain twenty-five
violins and the following letter: ..Great

who therefore request the maestro to

and to look upon the ascending smoke
as incense offered to his genius by PEN
