Ex-President Grover Cleveland
is noted for clearness of vision and
directness of speech in dealing with
subjects that concern the welfare
of the American people. Mr..
Cleveland is specially delicious when
dealing with the broad subject of
American patriotism-not an alb
stract sentiment, but as a practical
manifestation Of loyal ty to country
by all classes of citizens in the
everyday walks of life.
Thus, speaking to the toast of
sour Country" at the recent jewel
ers' banquet in'New York city, Mr..
Cleveland said:
"This is our country because
the people have established it, be-
cause they rule it, because they
have developed it, because they
fought for it and because they love
it. And still each generation of
Americans holds it only in trust
for those who shall come after
them; and they are charged with
the obligation to submit it as strong
and sound as it came to their
hands. 1t is not ours to destroy, it
is not ours to sell and it is not ours
to neglect and injure. 1t is ours as
our families are ours and as our
churches and schools are ours-to
protect and defend, to foster and
improve"

ONE MILLION STAMPS.
The Device of Swindler for Getting
Variety of Postage Stamps.

Every few weeks some one announces
himself as the victim of the l,OO0, OOO
hostage stamp hoax. tits firmly believed
by many people that if 1000, QUO stamps
are collected and forwarded to some one
a bed will be provided for an invalid boy
in some hospital, or home Tor an
orphan will be secured, or large amount
of money will be paid.
Churches have been the special victims,
and there is hardly city in England,
the United States, Australia, India or
any other country that has not had several
church members begging, borrowing and
helping themselves to postage stamps In
order to make million that will 60 to
clothe and feed some orphan.
The swindle originated in the brain OF
a postage-stamp collector at Stettin,
Germany. He desired to get vast collec-
tions to sort out and sell again, and hit
upon the plan to set the whole civilized
world at work for him gratis. He preyed
on the sympathies of the people by an
nouncing that an orphan would be cared
for in the Syrian Orphan Home for every
600. 600 stamps sent to him. This
worked well, and the next dodge was
the starting of a mythical mission in
China. the holy sisters of which were
said to have agreed for every million
stamps sent TO them to save from the
laws of the crocodiles - Yellow river

educate and Christianize it. The stamps

last claim on the sympathy Of the world
that has been made by this German IS
that for /, 900, 900 stamps home for an
old lady or an old gentleman viii be pro-
vided in one Of the three homes-one In
I London, another in New York and a
third in Cincinnati. For 500. 900 stamps
a bed will be endowed in a hospital, and
/ for 100. 600 home will be found for an
orphan for one year. It's estimated that
the Stettin man has collected over
100. 600. 600 stamps in the United States
alone. One CT his circulars was received

Do Lightning Rods Give Perfect
ProtectionP

The question of the degree to which
lightning rods can be relied on to afford
protection has Just been discussed before
the London Institution. The ultimatum
arrived at seems to be that in all cases OF
steady strain in which a charged cloud
descending from the upper regions Of the
air, or approaching from distance,
might infiict serious injury upon an I'M
protected building, a well-designed and
properly earth connected lightning rod
is an absolute safeguard. In case OF
.simpulsive rush, the rod may often be
of use in bearing the brunt of the dis
charge, though sometimes the lightning
will take no notice whater of it striking
the building and altogether neglectng
the rod; and it is even possible that
high rod might attract destructive dis
charge. which otherwise would not have
occurred at all Although, therefore,
lightning rod is in many cases, prooa-
bly, in a very large majority, of the great
est service, it cannot be depended upon
as affording perfect immunity from RISK
and the assumption which has universally
been made by 4" the older electricians,
that damage by lightning is in it'll con
elusive evidence of SOME imperfectlon u
the conductor, is an unfoundedone.

A SONG OF HoME.

Across the wide lands as pilgrim roam
Alone, and stranger fare,
But wherever l wander my heart is at home'
with the ones that remember me there.
The flowers bloom sweetly along these wild
dells,
And the mountains rise rugged and grand,
And the low Sabbath sound OF the far-away
bells
Melts tenderly over the land
And the western skies wait for the soft after
glow,
Eve never closed lovelier das--
But nv soul looks beyond, AID my eyes they
o'erhow,
For my heart is at home far away.
You ray MARBLE, sweet birds, to the red
evening SKIES,
Yet your vesper song dies on my ear,
For deep in my spirit the memories rise
OF the PARKWAY voices more dear.
You may babble, pure brook, in your soft
monotone,
You may purl to the pebbles you love,
You may kiss the green moss as it clasps tht
gray stone,
But my thoughts to deeper pulse move
Hark bark now hear them, hear the
old words,
Familiar and sweet, light and gay
Nay, nay, but dream, It's the song oil the
birds
But my heart is at home far away.
The western skies darken, the stars brighter
forth,
The wild flowers droop, the night comes,
The birds hurry home to their nests soutl
and north
Ali happy things, cling to your homes !
The lights of the city are dawning in view,
l return through the gay, thought,es
throngs,
From happy home windows bright face
smile through,
And hear children's laughter and songs.
New friends give me welcome, with greeting
of cheer,
laugh and / seem to be gay,
But memory grieves in the thoughts inne
ear,
And my heart is at home far away.
