You've talked of the merchant ships saiang tho

And told of the treasures the harvest would yield,
OF the fruit hanging low the o'erburdened
OF the odorous breath of the vine on the breeze;
But whence comes the mandate the law that de

That starve in the brown stubbleieldi
We battled at MONDAY with dust and with heat;
We sang and we jested to tighten our tod;
We hoped the drear winter with plenty to greet
All, the mirage TO near fainting hearts was 60

Bot empty our hands, bare and bleeding our feet;
The labor was ours. not tho spoil.

Tho Highest Inhabited Valley.

Presently, directly in out front, stood a
great high hill, and it seemed at first
glance rs though further progress was
impossible. But mans ingenuity over
comes mighty obstacles, and as this one
could not be turned the road had been
made to ascend its steep side by series
of zigzags or swing this way and that
way and that no fewer than nineteen
times ere the top is reached. From
where we left the torrent bed TO its sum-
init this barrier is at least 200 feet high,
and when we had reached The top found
myself at tue western end of the upper
Engadine.
This is the loftiest, most extensive high
valley in Europe, and perhaps the high
est inhabited valley in tho world. Its
average height is 5,400 feet above tho
level of the sea, and that is higher than
the top of famous Eigi, near Lucerne,
which everybody thinks a wonderful al
iitude. 1t is plain forty or fifty miles
long and mile or so in width, which
which has many large towns, luxurious
meadow lands, and several Alpine.lalxes
that finally flow of into the Inn river,
and the whole inclosed in majestic noun
tains SO awfuliy high that they are for
ever covered with snow and colossal
glaciers, all SO Enthusiastically shaped and
glittering that the spot has quite polar
aspect. In other parts OF Switzerland
eternal snow is never found below an al
titude of about 5000 feet, but this limit
Is not reached on tho borders OF the En-
gadine until we ascend as high as 1900.

A Boy Collaborator from Boston.

Speaking of copyright Max O'Rell told
funny story about his collaboration
in his book on America. He was very
much amused with an elevator boy in a
Boston hotel. In England an elevator is
called Gift" Max O'Rell questioned
the boy one day about his experiences
with the queer people he came across,
and the little fellow told one or two very
original anecdotes. He was promptly
taken into partnership. An agreement
was actually drawn up between Max
O'Rell and the elevator boy, by which
the lad became collaborator in writing
the book and will get one dollar on every
thousand copies sold. He wrote out his
own anecdotes, and his 'scopy" will go
to the printers. tie boy had often
given me lift, )" said Max O'Rell, 'sand
I thought it would be only fair to give
him lift. So took him into partner
ship" The authors idea in this curious
proceeding is to obviate possible difficulty
in protecting his copyright. He says
that the boys name shall appear ON the
title page, if necessary.-New York

Eoofs of Enslish Houses.

Shingled roofs arc unknown in Eng
land and on the continent. talked with
two men, intelligent English working
men, about the construction of buildings
In their country, and they both asked
me (when told them how they made
roofs in Amerlca) what shingles were !;
they had never seen or heard Of them.
and laughed, when described them, ut
the Yankee notion Of making "wooden
roof slate" They thought their thatcbed
roofs must be much better, every way,
than our shirgled ones. In Whittlesea l
saw square topped garden walls sur
mounted by caps of thatch, to shed tho
rain. In all this town / did not sec q
veranda, piazza or a porch-no place
whero one could sit out of doors and be
protected from the rays of the sun--not
even an awning. William T. Tidsley in

New and Artistic Idea.

A new and artistic idea has been intro
duced at dinner parties lately. The knives
and forks are all different ard each one
made after some special design. Dinlin-
utive copies Of antique German and
Turkish swords serve the guests mascu-
line for knives, matched by tiny daggers
of italian patterns given to those of the
sex feminine. Fanciful flower shapes
fall to the lot of the ladies for spoons,
matched by leaves wrought in silver for
their escorts. No two pieces are alike,
and not one but suggests its destination,
whether for man or maid. A Damascus
blade, quaint old Russian weapon, a
daintily petaled wild rose is useful as a
conversation suggester, however whim-
sical the notion in other ways. Detroit

The Ruler of Persia.

The shah of Persia, who is about to
make tour of Europe, is that exact
cross between gentleman and barbarian.
tyrant and progressive, that it is difficult
TO know precisely what to do with him.
But he will be ionized, for all that, and
feted, and will go back to Persia with
his brute instinct strengthened. The
chief characteristic of the fellow is low
passion. He is sensualist and cruel.
He never had even ordinary Persian adj
vantages to become refined and educated.
His father hated him, and virtually ban
ished him. Coming to power with all
his grossness unrestrained by culture, he
has made stern, strong and vicious
ruler. His betters can be found any,
where in the slums of the cities, and q
sprinkle of his equals among the aris-
tocracy anywhere. -Globe-Democrat.

Prairie Dogs Happy Family"

There is another old story now nearly
entirely exploded refer to the happy
family of the ''prairie dog the prairie
owl and the rattlesnake all living in har-
mony in the same burrow. Of course
they do nothing Of the kind, but the mar
mots have to put up with these owls and
snakes the best they can, precisely as we,
in our large towns and communities,
have to put up with our owls and snakes
in human form-meeting and passing
men every day of our lives whom per-
haps we know we'll to be sneak thieves
ano cutthroats. 1t is said upon good au-
thority that prairie marmots will even
desert the burrow in which big
''rattler" enters, and even, if small cob
blestones be handy in the neighborhood
of the entrance, deliberately seal it up
with them, SO that the snake cannot get
out and must starve to death.-Forest

The quaintest thing in Brepen is its
statue of liberty, the "Boland" as it is
called. 1t is a colossal figure. eighteen
feet high, and was erected in the center

Crahhinn. a Pacific Island.

Chill has coolly seized Easter island, in
the eastern part of the Pacific, distant
about 2. 800 miles from the cast of South
America. 1t is inhabited by Polynesians.
This is the island upon which are to be
fouYid gigantic stone statues fairly well
chiseled into hkenesses of the human
form. Who the sculptors were who cut
these stones has never been learned.
Chill wants to make penal colony of

you want in the Pacific grab it," seems
to be the doctrine of many governments

as follows: '.Fittest OF visages were

greasy, full of greediness, sensuality, Ak

The recipient of it having some little
