His Dignity Weuldn', Wash.
Detroit Free Press.

Detroit Free Press.
 He was majestic man, with a whole car load of dignity resting on his shoulders as he walked down the beach to the edge of the water.
 You can chaff some men as they thus stand waiting. You can call 'em old man, or old fellow, and ask if the water is cold enough for them, or if they don't want another iceberg in theirs. No one attempted to chaff this old Roman. His demeanor for bade it. All the small boys stood back in respectful way while he folded his arms and gazed out across the heaving sea as if he expected to see the coast of Spain.
 The great man finally entered the water. 1t was beneath his dignity to yell "ooch 1" as the cold water sawed away at his ankles, or to pause in his advance as he got started. He headed right out for the breakers, squared himself for the coming roller, and he wouldn't have turned his side or jumped it for a thousand dollars The roller came booming in, and while all others ducked or dived his majesty stood on his pins and faced it.
 Next moment something came ashore-somethipg which turned over and over as it tcame-something which spit and gasped and clawed and strangled as it struggled up. It was his majesty. The wind had been knocked out of him, and he had been flung end over end and plowed along the bottom, and his dignity was na. As he got up there was a general yell of delight, but he did not hear it. He looked neither to the right nor the left, but marched away with stately step for the bath house, leaving a dripping trail on the sands behind him, and we never saw him again.

WHEN WORK Is DONE.

It is as If the world were glad Whether in light or darkness clad, The hour iS never dull or sad
 When work is done. The very voices in the street Are turned to notes more soft and sweet. We love all things we chance to meet
 When work is done. The gentle music of the breeze The tender whisper of the trees, The every sound has power to please
 When work is done. Upon each dear, familiar isce Rests some new trait of wlnsome grace. And joy lights up the old home place
 When work Is done. Life'S tumult suddenly grows still. And love and gladneSS and goodwill Come with their peace the heart to tll.
 When work is done. Hut when the hours of labor close, And earth Is wrapped in sweet repOsv. And all things sleep alas for those
 With work undone. Oh, kinu Taskmaster, let Thy rest Re to tired workers manifest. And unto all who do their best.
 Say Thou. Well done!"

 The well-known total abstinence advocate, Francis Murphy, is in the city. When asked what he thought of the prohibition movement, which he has always opposed, Mr. Murphy said:
 "The prohibition cake is dough. knew 1t would prove so, and hope they are beginning to find out that they cannot legislate and make sober men. Prohibition means free whisky, and that is all you can make of it. The idea of a prohibition law proving eflectusl in Chicago, for instance, is ridiculous. In sparsely settled country or in small towns, perhaps, it could be made so, but never in the centers Of population. l believe that a prohibition law would simply tie our hands as 10 restrictive measures, and then, with prohibition that did not prohibit, where would we be2"
