A amusing scene was enacted Tues
day, in the surf near New York ave.
nue.. A Philadelphia and his wife
while in bathing became separated,
and the husband while searching for
his better half strayed about 20 yards
down the beach. A pretty Baltimor-
can was struck by breaker and fell
at the feet of the husband. and he in
spirit of fun picked her up and be-
gan floating her. The wife, who in
the meantime had been searching for
her husband, came up about this time
and then the bystanders enjoyed free
circus without having to pay an ad-
mission fee. The indignant and jeal-
Gus wife pulled her husbands hair,
scratched his face, and gave him a
tongue flashing. He protested, but in
vain, and finally the enraged wife
caught him by the ear and marched
him to their bath house, leaving the
frightened brunette the cynosure of a
gaping crowd.-N. Y. Star.

ALPENA WEEKLY ARGUS.
MISCELLANEOUS.
REGRET.

Thrust In my hand one summer day
A bunch OF crimson peoples lay
Withered and warm from little hand
That had gathered their bloom ut loves com
mand.
On other things and thoughts intent.
My absent gaze upon them bent,
Idly turned them Ger and DER,
Then dropped their bloom upon the fioori
But I've lived 10 weep for that summer day
And the withered peoples threw away.
Once on my ear child's voice fell,
It's loving tones knew full well,
And yet how strange, UNDECIDED oft ~''
The words that pied so sweet and soft,
Unleft the little head that pressed
Around my neck, upon my breast.
Now years have passed and borne away
The words and looks OF that dear day;
My empty arms stretch In vain,
But the child will ne'er come back again.
Oh, words and tones of bygone years,
How could ye fall on careless ears,
Why unresponsive were ye met,
Sweet loving deedsf oh vain regreti
Tears can not bring my flowers again,
Nor words OF love unheedod then,
Only a look OF sad surprise
And disappointed childish eyes.
SO Gods best gifts TO us-each day
Dropped from His hand on LIES rough way
Often we pass unnoticed by,
They like the flowers UNDECIDED lie,
And looking back in after years
With aching hearts through streaming tears
We stretch our longing arms in vain;
The treasures lost ne'er come again.

Origin Of indian Corn.

The origin of Indian corn has long
been mooted question. 1t is now
stated that native plant Of the maize
family has been discovered in Central
America which is probably the original
type of our corn. But instead OF bear

Of grains. Otherwise the plant re-
bembles corn nearly exactly. The de-

the result of cultivation as our corn,

In Blizzard Land.

North Dakota, according to the tempera-
tire maps, is the coolest part of the United
States This is accounted for by the fact
that there are no mountains to break the
force of the storms originating in the arctic
regions. From Manitoba they come rushing
and bowling into our territory with great
force, packing the sand like snow so firmly
that new formed drifts four or five feet high
will bear the weight of horses.
During one of these Billiards it is impos-
sible to be comfortable out Of doors, even
when the mercury does not fall below zero.
The snow packs into the clothing so that no
shaking will dislodge it, and the sharp par
ticles cut like glass or steel 1t is impossible
to face such storm, and persons and horses
naturally turn their faces from the blast, and
doing SO, even in the slightest degree, causes
them to lose their way on the plains.
The snow looks exactly like granulated
sugar; we never see it fall in large, feather-y
fakes, as it does In other parts of the country.
When it SHOWS it invariably blows and every
building, large or small, has its circle of
drifts
Occasionally for two or three days at a
time the north wind will take the snow flying
past, and apparently not grain Of it touches
the ground. Straight south it will go in such
masses that you cannot see an object few
rods from you; then in few days the south
wind will hurl another mass back to the
north.-Cor. Philadelphia Times.
