"do you think it is safe for me to go to
church tonight without On escort?"
Certainly, my DEAR" replied her
husband; "the ordinance prohibiting
geese from running at large was re-
paaled last week"
"Humphl you think you are awfully
smartl" retorted his wife. "But, thank
goodness! fools are compelled to stay at
homel"
"No, my DEAR" responded the hus-
band, "the ordinance against fools
running at large was repealed, too.
There is nothing at oil to prevent you
from going to town, or to the devil if
you want to do so"

nj ELSIE MORTON.

should you ask me whence this story,
Whence this legend or tradition,
should answer, should tell you -
From the far, far Western country.
Near the wide, wide Western ocean,
From the mountains, moors, and fenlands
OF the peaceful, calm Pacific"
In the land Of fruit and blossom,
In the land of wine and plenty,
In the land OF milk and honey,
Dwelt an ancient, high-born noble
Lived the Spaniard, Don Merago,
In the land OF gold and wonder,
In the Alta California.
With him dwelt his dark-eyed daughter,
Wayward was this Gaudalena,
With her moods of shade and sunshine-
Eyes that smiled and frowned alternate,
Feet as rapid as the river,
And as musical as laughter.
Now this maiden, she had lovers,
Lovers had she, proud and handsome,
Tall OF frame and fair OF feature.
And she gave them all welcome,
Sweetly smiled upon them all;
But at last there came sLitor
Grand and rich, of high degree;
He came TO see the lovely maiden.
See her black eyes like the raven,
See her softly curling hair;
Came to hear the low-toned music
OF her light guitar.
Oft he came and long he tarried,
Wooing her with all his might,
In the morning, at the noontide,
In the evening, and at night.
But the father, Don Merago,
Looked upon him with frown,
Frowning did he look upon him,
Looked upon him hard and long.
Then he talked in harsh Castilian,
And he vowed an awful vow,
Talked Of war, and GUERRA shouted,
Shouted Guerra al cuchilloT
He would fight with him duel
With his keen Toledo blade;
Long and deadly should they combat
Like the cavaliers of Spain.
Then challenge he did send him,
Challenged him to fight at noon
Him TO fight duel challenged,
At the next new moon.
On the margin Of the ocean
On the long and sandy shore
There they met for mortal combat,
Until one life should be DER.
Don Merago drew his saber,
Drew his highly tempered steel;
Classic poses took upon him,
And then made his victim reel.
Senior Castro Senor Castrol
You have run your mortal race
Never more will Gaudalena
Gaze upon your still cold face
Backward To the old San Carmel,
To the mission Of the Fathers,
Went a broken hearted woman,
Went the soft-voiced senorita.
In the Carmelitish convent
Dwelt she there a sad-eyed nun;
Coarse her garb and hard her pillow,
Never looked she on the sun.
In the cloister, dark and dreary,
Prayed she there without repose;
Eve till dawn, from dawn till evening,
Worked she there till life's sad close.

1T has been lately asserted in scien-
tific circles that the idea that mann.
mails had passed through a period of
aquatic growth, as shown by the exist
ence of the whale, should be exactly re-
versed. That is, the anatomy OF the
wha'e has been found to show that at
one time it was a four-footed beast. It
rctains evidence of having had at one
time hairy covering, while it also re-
tains sets of rudimentary teeth charac-
terisic of land animal rather than a
marine one. These teeth vanish at On
early period of the wha'e's life, often
even before IL is born.
