Another bright little Chicago glrl
has been learning to spell, and she has
experienced great trouble with the
double letters. Her aunt, who is teach
ing her, insists upon her saying
double" when the same letters occur
together, instead of repeating each
separately-for instance: In SPELL
ing bubble" she must say ''b-u-double
bile, instead of bubble. This meth
cd annoyed the little one greatly. She
could not get it fixed in her head, and
when reading or spelling she became
all mixed up with thinking Of this
double" rule. The other day she
was reading and spelling out the story
of a little girl who was eating an APP
pie, and she became mixed, as usual.
She came 10 the sentence, Cup, little
grill" and she rendered it, Double up,
little grill" 1t might have applied to
the apple episode, but it shocked the
little ones patient aunt UNNECESSARILY.

Suppose you get a dozen birds. Sup
pose you get half a dozen. You have
a splendid bag of splendid birds. The
birds all look SO big you can't tell
which are the young ones and which
the old. Take up a bird by its lower
mandible, which you hold between
thumb and finger. If the bill breaks,
the bird is one of this season. If it
does not break, it is an old bird. There
is an old hunters saying that the bill
will break up till Christmas. In di-
viding up the bag, you may slyly
choose the birds whose bills break.
When you come to broil these your
wife's heart will relent and she will
forgive you for wanting to go hunt

courage you in that insidious VICE..

STAINED HANDS.


See. the roses you gave me are dead
IcrusheI them. Your hands now" you
In smiling. ARE stained blood red"
Hook 1t the rudy red stain;
And | shudder with deeper pain
Than a roses death could contain.
For l see other hands other blood.
That cometh from no flower bud.
And | think Of my womanhood
That is darker and sadder than yore;
think of the bliss gone before,
And the des'late, pathetic no more.
You, man, standing there in the light
OF Gods sky, with the pure silver white
OF the moon falling down In your sight;
You hold up your hands to the sky.
Are they puref Are they stainlesst Say
"Ay,"
And smilingly pass the words by.
But l, standing here race to face
With you in the desolate place
Which the moon makes so fair for a space;
answer you now as we stand:
A stain lies blood red on that hand,
And It's bloody.-You understand
Nays-Feign lgnorance; hold again
Those hands to the light; tits in vain
God and l. and you, too. see that stain.
What You dare to pretend surprised
You say youforgetf Sir, the skies
Are close DER your head and Gods eyes.
You forget, then, the cleaning gray,
And the vows interchanged that day,
And the beautiful, blissful Mayt
You forget, then, the days of old,
When the.s tresSes OF radiant gold
Made your sunshinei-You used TO hold
This land here 80 tenderiy then,
And deem it all Joy
o, you meni
You who do it-and will again.
You say you forget stmi The bliss
OF those days you forgeti And the kiss
a was taken and given, ! wis,
Meath the purest of tenderest skiesf
You forget the look In my eyes,
And the exquisite JOY and surprise.
You forget the song that you hushedt
YOU forget the heart that you crushedt
At that he, sir. your conscience blushed
Now hold up your hands to the sky .
And say they are stainless Ayi
BIT not TO the Watchful on high
He saw 1.-THE heart that 1 brought
Tha 50 tenderly you had sought

You were true, but my faith was In vain
Col Forget my pathetic Life pain
If you can-and that hands guilty stain.

A musical gas machine is an English
and it is called the pyro-
phone. Its compass is three octaves,
with a keyboard, and it will be played
in the same n as an organ. 1t
has ~thirty-seven glass tubes, in which
q like number of gas jets burn. These
jets, placed in a circle, contract and
expand. When the small burners
separate, the sound is produced; when
they close together, the sound ceases.
The tone depends upon the number of
burners, and the size of the tubes in
which they burn, so that by a careful
arrangement and selection all the notes
of the musical scale may be produced
in several octaves. Some of the glass
tubes in which the jets burn are nearly
eleven feet long.-New York Tele-
