society's crime---A Threnody.

| In the good old days when life was new,
And words were simpler ant, hearts more true,
! There lived an old lady of primitive ways.
Whom rich and poor delighted to praise.
Dame Hospitality, this was her name,
And her door stood open to all who es,nc.
For she counted it joy with each TO share
Her pleasant home and her simple fare,
And the people gathered from far and near
For smile of welcome. word of cheer.
And, come they in. coaches or rickety wagons.
They had comfort of apples and singing of
fiagous.
But years passed on and there came to the town
A frisk dame in n gorgeous gown, g
And she found seven other as silly as she.
And they called each otherSeeiety-
Their heads were empty. their heels were light,
So they danced and capercd from morning till
night,
And somewhere or other. on every day
They sat down to eat and rose up TO play.
They thought themselves happy, but now and
then
They caught word from the mouths of men.
a word of honest and hearty praise
OF the good old dame and her simple ways,
And it filed them full of rs fierce hate
As Haman felt for the Jew atthe gate:
And each one lifted her jeweled hand
And sworc she would Danish her out of the land.
So they sought next morning her open door
And they flung her down on the polished floor.
And with ribbons of yellow. of pink and of white.
They shared her and noosed her and piuioned
her tight.
She did not strive and she did not cry,
But the pleading glance of her gentle eye
Was. so full of rcproach for their envious spite,
That they haStened to bury it out of sight
With roses of every various hue.
Pink, crimson and yellow and possibly blue;
They stifed her first with their sweet-smelling
savors
And stopped her last gasp with what they called
E - fayors."
So there she lay dead, but of all thngs human
The cruelist thing is n heartless woman.
And. to make her sud ending as snre as could he.
They drowned her in gallons of s Afternoon
Tea"
They had had their way and carried their point,
| And their times no longer were out of joint,
| So each seized each by her murdcrous hand
And they danced round the grave to mandolin
band.
| And this is the terrible way that ii came
| That the dear old lady is now but name,
! And we mourn the loss of her simple ways
Aud sometimes sigh for the good old days.

that flesh is heir to, no other remedy,

How She Went to Bed.

New York Sun.
She was alone and passenger on the
Chicago express which left the Grand
Central depot at p. m. Her quality
was not made apparent until within
about fifty miles of Albany. Then it
became evident that she regarded COM
fort as superior to the proprieties every
time. Her berth being prepared, with
a look of determination, she stood up
and drew the curtain behind
her; not close enough, how
ever, to embarrass her move
ments. Off came her waist, then she
stepped out of her dress skirt, and fold
ing both neatly, slowed them away.
Next her cOrsets came off. Then she
pinned shawl around her shoulders.
threw aside the curtain and came forth.
Reaching her bag she secured brush.
comb and hand glass and proceeded
coolly to arrange her hair as was her
wont in her own boudoir. Thus far
the men in the car had done their
whole duty by looking the other
way, but they gave it up when
she deliberately took out all her
hairpins, removed an elaborate switch.
attached it to the hook at the side of
the berth and combed it out carefully.
This done she folded it up, put it away,
got into bed. took off the shawl and in
ten minutes was softly snoring. Then
the men went into their own compart-
ment, lighted fresh cigars, passed round
flask and wondered who might be the
fortunate poSSessor of such woman.

Where Amy Robsart Died.

To those familiar with SCOTS beauti-
full story of Kenilworth, the castle which
was the scene of its more tragic and
memorable incidents, appears but a
ghostly monument of the dread events
enacted there. This once grand and
imposing historical structure is now a
mass of ruins. The outline can indeed
be traced, but battlement and tower have
crumbled to dust. Not a vestige of the
roof remains. The lake where the fetes
were held is dry, and the moat is filled
with the shattered wall, while the ivy
grows in Iuxuriance wherever it can
find root. The walls of the banqueting
hall and the tower where Queen Eliza
beth lodged are still standing. and to
save them from further ruin they have
been propped with iron rods. The
courtyard where once the jousts and
games were held, WIN ( brave knights
tilted and fair ladies smiled on the
victor, is Overgrown with weeds. Here
and there as sentinels stand tall holly
trees.

Irregular custmers come once a week
twice week, and sometimes every

of course, but the two who are here

they cannot have at their homes"
While the conversation was going on
the pretty bride had received her
alcoholic massage and was arraying
herself in the daintiest of habiliments.
Over the pink and white feet were fitted
stockings of silk, and around the plump
shoulders were drawn silken vest.

set was pale blue MORE, Tossed and

all the perfumed lingerie as fine as a
baby's christening robe, edged with
lace like frost, the rustling white skirts

and over 1t wonderful combination of
harmonious blending shades of green in
dress and bonnet. She fitted out look
ing like pink and white sweet pea, all
a dazzle from the fluffy coil of her vel
low hair to the hem of her shimmering
gown. A tall, broad-shouldered man
hurried down the steps of neighboring
hotel, and the belle of the baths was
handed into carriage and hurried
away, as dainty and sweet and happy a
woman as the continent contains.

parish had not 800 words in their
vocabulary. A well-educated
person in England who has been at
a public school and at the university.
who reads his Bible, his Shakespeare,
the Times, and all the books of Nudes
library, seldom uses more than about
5000 or 1900 words in actual converse

pressions and wait till they find the word
that exactly fits their meaning, employ

may rise to Ii command Of 10000. The
Hebrew testament says all it has to say
with 5,642 words; MiIton's works are
built up with e.oU0. and Shakespeare,
who probably displayed a greater va
riety of expression than any writer in
any language, produced all his plays
with about $4,000 words.
