He Is com"g." All the world is decked In frosty
splen.ior,
A million cleaning jewels are tossing to and
fro;
Afar DER dazzling spaces her listening heartbeats
send her
To greet the welcome music of bells across the
snow.
Yet near the curtained window, 1t is not she who
gazes
With eyes that catch the leaders IS their silent
footballs haste;
Nor she, who laughing gayly, that pace Of swift
ness praises
As the master and his steeds come flying DER
the waste.
A little in the shadow his darling waits the minute
When his dearest voice shall coll her his strong
hand clasp her own.
sudden wonder thrills her, life hath such sweet
in it
To the wiie who reigns a princess, nor needs
stately throne.
He Is coming! Crisp and clear the sleigh bells
send their gre ting;
Sweet and merry is their music as It peals across
the snow.

Sixty the Average Age of Senators.

Sixty the Average Age of Senators.
More than half of the constitutional
convention of 1887 were men who had
not reached the age Of 45, while there
are only seven men who are not past 40
among the lightweight members of the
United States senate today, and four of
these come from the younger states OF
the west, where there are fewer old
men than in the east, Maine and Yer
mont having, according to the cen
sus returns of age, more than six times
as many males past the age of 60 proper
tionally as Colorado and the Dakotas.
No less than thirty-seven of the eighty
eight senator's, or nearly half of all, are
past 80, and nine of them beyond 20, as
three others will be within a few
months. Mr.. Morrill, has colleague from
Ohio who, like him, was born in 1910;
two who were born in 1916 and three in
1918. Three of these have, like him,
sought and obtained reflections after
they were past 20. The average age of
all the senators falls only about a year
short of 60.
In the supreme court the change has
been equally remarkable. Since Pierce's
day but one man has been placed upon
this bench who had not passed the age
of As, while Of the twelve appointees
during the past two decades no less than
four were more than sixty when they
took their seats. OF the eight judges
left after Mr.. Miller's death one is 20
years old, one is "a, and one is IT,

STANLEY at Buffalo.

There was funny incident connected
with Henry M. Stanleys visit to Buffalo.
Quarters were engaged at the Niagara
hotel for Mr.. Stanley, his bride, her
mother and their servants. 1t was
thought fitting to give the explorer the
bridal suite of rooms. In the hotel re-
side several fashionable families, includ-
ing that of Mr.. Henry w. Box, the
millionaire street railway lawyer. The
ladies literally stripped their own apart
ments of bric-a-brac, rugs and furniture
to enhance the beauty of the bridal
apartments, believing that it was very
courteous and proper thing to do, and
thinking that they would not miss their
household ornaments for the few hours
the Stanley party had arranged to stay in
Buffalo. So delighted were Mrs. STAN
ley and her mother with their splendid
quarters that they remained several
days, to the dismay of the lenders, whose
own desolate apartments looked forlorn.

had been the place of sepulture of a

feet beneath the surface, and though

and disobedient. so that rules and regu-
lations are required that are not needed
in the home. Parents surrender their
children to the authority Of the teacher
and they are subject to these rules, and
great injury is done to the child as well
as to the school il meddling interference
is made and perhaps the child withdrawn
from attendance. thus depriving the child
of an opportunity TO acquire even a com
mon school education. Punctuality and
regular attendance are absolutely essen
tial, otherwise the absent one falls behind
his class, and must ever be little behind
and unable to fully understand the illus
trations and explanations of the teacher.
Under no other conditions will the school
give satisfaction. OF course, certain cases
exist where absence is unavoidable, but
If attention was given to the matter much
better attendance would follow. At all
times the conduct of the teacher in any
case of discipline, or neglect of discipline,
should not be discussed before the pupils,
but an exact obedience to all the school
rules should always he required. Parents
and teachers are both interested in the
progress of the scholar and should stand
shoulder to shoulder in all things that
relate to education, and let all remember
that the knowledge-seeking pupil will
learn under any teacher, good or bad,
and never cause trouble to parent or
teacher about school discipline.
