Incidents of Interest TO Remember
When You Read the Verses.
THE LIBRARY.

Gray's immortal "Elegy" occupied
him for seven years.
Bryant wrote 'Thanatopss" in the
shade of grand oil | forest-a fitting spot
for such a theme.
Cowper wrote one of the drollest and
quaintest English ballads, "JOhn Gilpln's
Ride" when he was under one of those
terrible fits of depression so common to
him.
General Lyle wrote hi beautiful COM
position, "Autony and Cleopatra, which
begiua, II am dying. Egypt, dying" on
the night before his death. He had a
premonitiOn that he was going to die the
next dav.
The noted poem, The Falls of Niaga-
ra. was written by its author, j. &. 9.
Brainard, the editor of small paper in
Connecticut, in fifteen minutes. de
wrote it under pressure in response to
call for more copy"
After the Ball" the little poem which
has made the name of Nora Perry known
in the world of let ers, was jotted down
on the back of an old letter, with no idea
of the popularity it was to achieve in the
pages Of noted magazine
Thomas Moore, while writing Lflla
Rookh,n spent SO many months in read
ing UP Greek and Persian works that he
became an accomplished Oriental schol-
ar, and people found it difficult to be-
lieve that its scenes were not penned on
the spot instead of in retired dwelling
in Deyonshire.
Poe first thought OF The Bells" when
walking the streets of Baltimore on a
winters night. He rang The bell OF a
lawyers house-a stranger to him
walked into the gentleman's library,
shut himse elf up and the next morning
presented the lawyer with a copy of bis
celebrated poem.
The "O.d Oaken Bucket" was first sug
gested to the author, Samuel Woodwork 9,
in a barroom. A friend with whom he
was drinking said at when they were
boys the old oaken bucket that hung in
his fathers well was good enough for
them to drink from. Woodwork i'm
mediately went home and wrote the
famous poem.
''Ol1 Crimes that familiar ''lit.le
felicity in verse;" which caught the pop
ular fancy as far back as 1923, Wa' a
sudden inspiration of the late Judge AL
bert G. Green of Providence, r l.. who
found the first verse in collection of
old English ballads, and, enjoying its
humor, built up the remainder of the
poem in the same conceit.

Stuart Cunliffe was overcome with the

called for Reginald, who FASTENED to his

Scotland Yard authorities.

voted a Republican ticket at the late

his temerity with his life. The letter runs

RHEUMATISM

Is undoubtedly caused by Tactic acid in
the blood. This acid attacks the tibrous
tissues, and causes the pains and aches
in the back, shoulders, knees, ankles,
hips, and wrists. Thousands of people
have found in Hoods Sarsaparilla a
positive cure for rheumatism. This
medicine, by its purifying action, neu-
tralizes the acidity of the blood, and also
builds up and strengthens the whole
