COME. FLY WITH MEL
How the Romance of Love- -aIaiking Is Dc
stroyed on tho Stage.

Stroyeu OH tho StbDc'
Consider what lovc-making on. the
stage really means, says Mrs. Kendall
in Murray's Magazine. A young girl
comes into thoater to play ingenuo
parts. She stands in the wing ready to
be called upon tho stage and she secs n
man and woman making love. The
man says: Dearest, fly with me-" Tho
woman says: IL dare not" The man
says: 1--WE will go at once; come" The
first time such words as those fall on tho
ears of young girl unaccustomed to
hear them they might, II said with fer
vor and passion, mean something, but
this is the way it generally goes:
Dearest fly with me-"
mo, no, nor from the stage manager;
"when you say that you stand at the
back of tho chair, you lean over Miss
Snooks' back; she waves her hand
against you. Now try it,"
This Is gone over twenty times, until
at last the idea of ely with me-"
as understood by the young ingenue,
must be Of most appalling kind.
Tho gentleman has had his right
arm, his left arm, his right leg,
his left leg, his back, his chest, both
his hands, his head-all talked over. He
has tried it in high voice, he has tried
it In low voice, he has tried it in q
thin voice, he has tried 1t in a heavy
voice, until there is no sense left OF what
ely with me" might crother circum-
stances mean. All tho romance Of love.
making is gone. Therefore, what effoc,
| can 1t have? Ia lovo is it not the fac,
that some of the charm lies in treating
| Of an unknown land?

A sacaoious Elephant.

A Bombay paper relates an incident
illustrative of the sagacity Of the ele-
phant. A battering train had 10 cross
the sandy bed OF river which ut ono
time contained but o shallow stream Of
water. An artilleryman who was seated
on the timbrel of one OF the guns ac-
cidcntally fell off and would have been
run over by tho whools had not the ele-
phant, which was stationed behind the
gun, instantly, without any warning
from It's keeper, lifted up tho whoel
with its trunk and kept 1t suspended
till the carriage had passed clear of him.

C..ristRias Customs.

Eat, drink and be merry would seem
to be an appropriate motto for the fes-
tai homes of the holiday season, and
the hospitable home is garlanded with
Christmas green's and the hustle OF
social entertainment pervades every
nook and corner. 1t is Il gala time
with the children, who are on the tip
toe of happy expectation, for Santa
Claus never forgets his little people,
but always brings them some good
thing, and the Christmas tree will
surely be on hand with its foliage rich
and rare, happy custom, for which
we are indebted to the "Faderland."
"Over the sea there's wonderful tree;
We heard of II first in Germany,
But now old England gathers It's frut,,
And here in our soil it has taken root"
In some homes four Christmas lrees,
one in each corner of big room, are
used. The parents have one corner,
the older children one, the babies the
third corner and the servants the
fourth. A German Christmas COM
bines a religious festival with the gift
giving. The children are taken in to
see the illuminated tree, but not to re-
ceive anything from its well-laden
boughs until they have sung the sweet
Christmas carols of their country.
They all sit at the base of the tree in
their little quaint costumes, their soft
hair neatly disposed of in Marguerite
braids and their round, grave faces,
shining with expectancy, for however
trifing the gift Kriss Kringle brings
them they are taught to be thankful,
and they are sure of white sugar
apple with one very red side to it, and
waxy green stem, the only part of it
they may not eat.
There are no waits-boy singers-to
rouse us at midnight here, with their
weird, sweet, carol singing, and their
clamor for gifts.
"God rest you, merry gentlemen;
Let nothing you dismay;
For Jesus Christ, our Savior,
Was born on Christmas day."
But the bells chime at midnight and
ring out the old tender story that
eighteen hundred years ago the Chal-
dean shepherds started on its mission
of peace, and everybody makes merry
in his or her approved way.
1t is in England that Christmas las
its full value. There it is both holy
day and a holiday. The roast beef of
old England and the plum pudding Of
national reputation, are renowned in
story and song.
"They serve up salmon. renison and wild
bOarS,
BY hundreds. dozens and by scores
Hogsheads of honey, kiiderkins OF mustard,
Plum puddings, pancakes, apple-pies and
cuStardS.
The boar's head enwreathed with
rosemary is the professional dish of
the old manorial halls and the Oxford
feasts and is borne in with solemn
state upon its decorated platter. Tile
Christmas goose is a favorite dish of
the common people, turkey being more
of a New Years treat. Christmas
week is season of jollity and hospi-
tality. and a elimination of all the
blessings is reserved for the day itself.

A SONG OF JOY AT DAWN.

All my heart this night rcjolces,
AS hear,
Far and near,
Sweetest angel voices:
"Christ is born," their choirs are singing,
Till the air
Everywhere
Now with joy is ringing.
Hark! a voice from yonder manger.
Soft and sweet,
Doth entreat,
"Flee from woe and danger;
Brethren. come, from all doth gricvc you
You are freed,
All You need
l will surely give YOU
Come, then. let MS hasten yonder;
Here let all,
Great and small,
Kncel in awe and wonder,
Love II i'm who with love is ycarnlng:
Hail the star
That from far
Bright with hope is burning!
Hither come. yc heavy hearted;
Who for sin
Deep within,
Long and sore have Smarted;
For the poisoned wounds you're feeling
Help is near,
One Is here
Mighty for their healing!

Tie College.

The people of Hot Springs ex-
tend a cordial invitation to all Wis
itorst to visit the College building of
the Black Hills College. We are
proud Of our College building, and
believe the building itself is a crit
orion by which you may form a cor
rect opinion of what the character
OF the college itself will be. We
would not for a moment advocate
the idea that the character of a man
may be correctly Judged by the
clothes he wears, and it may be
true that a college building, being,
as might be said, the garments of
the institution itself, is no true in
deX OF the character of the institu-
ton, but we think it can be safely
said that this fine school building
has not been erected only to CON-
mand admiration OF the structure it
self. Surely the men that have been
chiefly instrumental in the erection
of this building, and who are still
at the head, have had a nobler, a
more vital motive than simply the
erection OF a fine building. The
same energy and intelligence that
has been put into the building will
now go into the work Of the instit-
ution. The building itself is worth
seeing both inside and out. 1t is
built of gray sandstone and the in
terror is elegantly finished in
Georgia pine with hard oil paint
ing.
