As one who cons at evening OCT an album all And mnses on the faces of the friends that he so turn % the leaves of fancy till in shAdowy ran me smiling features of an old sweet
 art of mine. The lAmplight seems to Elimmer with flicker .sIturn it low to rest me of the dazzle in my And fight my pipe in silence, save sigh that
 seems to yoke Its fate with my tobacco, and to vanish in The
 smoke. Iris A fragrant retrospection-for the loving
 thoughts that start Into being are like perfumes from the blos-

 divine, When my truant fancy wanders with that old
 sweetheart of mine. Though hear, beneath my study, like Hut The voices of my children, and the mother as feel no twinge of conscience to deny me any When care has cast her anchor in the harbor of

 sweetheart of mine.l A face of lily beauty and form of airy grace, Floats out of my tobacco as the genie from the And I thrill beneath the glances of a pair of
 azure eyes, As glowing as the summer and as tender as
 the skies. can see the pink sunbonnet and the little
 checkered dress She wore when first kissed her and she an.

 old sweetheart of mine. And again feel the pressure of her slender As we used to talk together of the future we

The Origin of Beer.
Cornhill Magazine.

Ale was the sole title of malt liquor until the reign of Henry VIII, up to which time tho employment Of hops as an ingredient in the beverage was unknown in England. In the year 1924, or thereabouts, the use of hops was introduced from Germany, and to distinguish the new kind of liquor from the old the German name bier was adopted, and, with an infinitesi- nal change of spelling, became part of our language. Germany, in truth, is the native land of beer, and nowhere in the world is it treated with such special honor.
 In Germany the drinking of beer is not, as with us, mere means of carnal refreshment, but, particularly among the students of the universities, is ele- vated to the dignity of cult, famil- iarity with whose ritual is deemed an essential branch of liberal education. We remember to have seen, appended to a receipt of M. Francatelli's for some specially seductive beverage, the recommendation, "Stir and drink de- voutly." This is precisely the mental attitude of the German student in re- lation to beer. He drinks devoutly indeed, it might be almost said, paro- dy ing the familiar Oriental phrase, that in Germany "there is no God but beer, and the student is the prophet"

How a Ratslesnake Tastes.
New York Evening Sun.

Captain Clinton Packard has spent his winters in Florida and will shortly return there in charge of Mir. D. A. Loring's steam yacht. Last night, speaking of some of his experiences in Florida, he said 'Like most men who have followed the sea more or less for a living, have had some queer expe- riences i'll eating, but if 1 live hun- dred years will never forget dish of rattlesnake had few years ago. was in charge of camp of tourists in south Florida, and one evening one of the party, Brooklyn broker, who is something of an amateur naturalist, shot a rattlesnake with rifle, the ball cutting off the reptiles head as clean as though it had been knife. Going up to it he said:
 "I have heard that people on the plains eat rattlesnakes, and Pll cook this fellow and find out what he tastes like, if it is the last act of desperate life.'
 "Ie took the snake to the camp, skinned and cleaned it, and then cut it into slices, which he dredged in nice batter, and then fried to turn. There were about fifteen in the party, and all but one of us partook of the snake. ate just enough of it to enable me to say that had done so, but found the meat very palatable, and nicer tasting than eel cooked in the same manner. The broker and his son, a young man, made hearty meal of the unusual food, and no unpleasant results followed the unusual meal"

Save Your Dimes.
Boston Globe

NiopS'
 Two young men walked into a cigar store the other day, and one of them bought and paid for two cigars. The cigars cost ten cents each, and the man who sold them handed back, in change for the silver dollar that had been rendered him, eighty cents ill ten cent pieces. Thereupon one of the young men laughed vociferously, and the other, who bought the cigars, pocketed the eight dimes, with an ex- pression approaching chagrin, and said: "Just my luck, by George {! However" said he, after lighting his cigar, "if there's any more spending to be done, old fellow, you've got to do it, for Pm broke."
 When the young men left the store, the cigar man turned to reporter who had witnessed the transaction and said:
 "Do you know what that meansp"
 "No."
 "It means that the young fellow who bought the cigars is at the same time eighty cents ahead and eighty cents behind He is ahead in money that he will save and behind in money that he probably wanted to use to- day"
 "I don't understand you"
 "Well, the young man has simply caught the dime saving craze. "ii----- -
 "And what is the dime saving craze?"
 "The scheme is never to spend a dime. It was probably devised for the benefit of thriftless people who are not able to save their money in a regular way, and for plan of saving money it is the best I ever heard of. You make up your mind to keep every dime that comes into your pos session. You are never to part with a ten-cent piece under any circum- stances. Whenever you receive dime in change put it away, and when you get home place it in receptacle for safe- keeping. The more dimes you get in change the greater your savings will be. You are to make any sacrifice rather than to part with one dime. If you have nothing but dimes in your pocket when you want a cigar, go without the cigar. If you want lunch and have nothing but dimes, go with out lunch. If you have only dime in your pocket and want to ride home On horse car, brace up and walk. the result will astonish you"

 "Do you find it easier to teach girls or boys?"
 "Boys, most decidedly. The little girls think too much of dress. Even my little Bijou has the mania. She always asks: Mamma! Am poor in the beginning and rich in the end, or am I poor all through?' If it is the former she is perfectly satisfied, if the latter, she doesn't like it."
 "Don't some of the children get very stagey by being constantly amid theatrical surl oundings?"
 "Undoubtedly, and I can tell you some examples which are as pathetic as they are amusing. One little fellow, the first time he was taken to the sea- shore, exclaimed as he saw the waves rolling in "Mammai How do they work them?' Another child, a little girl, recently went to the country for the first time. It was night when she started. Early in the morning she looked out of the window at the coun- try landscape. Why, mamma she said, that must have been painted by Veogtin 7"

Knocked Down by a II Oso cart.

Last Saturday night, as the Washing
ton hose carriage and the Reliance engine
were responding to the alarm from box
10 at Eleventh and Church streets, Davis
b Patterson, G brother of the driver OF
the Pic ak engine, ran out In Eleventh
street near the bridge to warn the drivers
of several distractions In the street over
the bridge, when he was struck by the
shaft of the Washington hose carriage
and knocked down, but fortunately the
wheels did not pass over him, Otherwise
he would certainly been killed, as the
carriage with the hose weighs about
1900 pounds. 1t was very dark and the
driver OF the hose carriage could not see
him Patterson was taken to his home
at No. 1897 Wilson street, and although
he was cadly bruised no bones were brok
en-. He does not blame the driver OF
these on the carriage.
