LIBERTY.

Bob. Ingersoll.
Oh, liberty, thou art the god of
my idolatry! Thou art the only
diety that hates the Bonded Knee.
In thy vast and unveiled temple,
beneath the roohess dome, star
gemmed and luminous with suns,
thy worshipers stand erect. They
do not bow or cringe, or crawl, or
bend their heads to the earths. The
dust has never borne the impress
of their lips. Upon thy sacred
alters mothers do not sacrifice their
babes nor men their rights. Thou
asked not from men except the
things that good men hate. the
whip, the chain, the dungeon key
Thou hast no kings, no popes, no
priests to stand between their fell
low-men and thee. Thou hast no
monks. no nuns, who in the name
of duty murder joy. Thou carest
not for forms or mumbled prayers.
At thy sacred shrine hypocracy
does not bow. Fear does not
crouch, virtue does not tremble,
superstitition's feeble tapers do not
burn; but reason holds aloft her
inextinguishab'e torch, while on
the ever broadening brow Of science
falls the ever coming morning of
the better day.

The Story Of q Hat.

Somcrville Journal.
just before him she sat
With u MOnStrOuS great hit
Onhcr head, quite oSrWrlny the stage.
He twisted and turned
TIL with anger he bhrncd,
And each moment augmented his rage.
In despair. then, ut last
half the evening had passed
Leaning forward, he whispered quite low;
Wont you take of your hat'
can't see what their ut
On the stage But she shook her head, ''NO!'
Then he had i bright thought
Some by instinct are taught
And he put his own hat on his head.
In IN instant from behind
Him came MunerS unknd
''ShOOt the hat!' ''Take that hat OFF, they
said.
Their expressions were blunt,
And the lady In front,
For she thought that 1T course, they meant her,
With Il rosy red face,
An exceeding bad grace,
Dotted her hat without further ,leMur.
MORAL.
The moral Is plain;
Your point you may gain
Sometimes In Il roundabout way.
And In this moral, too,
Comes dearly to view:
Never wear u big hat Mt the play.

TRICKS OF FRENCH PAINTERS

They Resort to the Yankee Amateur
Dodge to Attract Attention.
French paper says that for two months
OF the year the chief business of the two
thousand and odd exhibitors "a the Salon is
to attract the attention of visitors to their
own pictures. Some of these ''dodges"
which have been found useful for the pur-
pose. 1t seems, are highly ingenious. The
plan found most effectual, and therefore
most commonly employed, is the "f ankee
amateur dodge" 1t consists of employing
two or three gents, dressed in an eccentric
fashion, to walk backward and forward
with mysterious air. The public Is greatly
awed by their appearance, and reports are
soon circulated that the picture will be sold
for its weight in gold.
Another highly recommended plan is to
hire the best-looking model introduced into
the picture to walk backward and forward
In frontof the canvas. The identity is soon
discovered aud great sensation is the con-
sequence.
a few years ago painter found out still
more original plan. He placed some soft,
resinous substance, which would grow soft
with warmth, in frolt of his own picture.

stop Tor few minutes would fiud himself

Work of an IncendIarv

Fire Marshal Towe is investigating the
cause of the fire which destroyed Alfred
Skootsky's hay, grain and coal yard at 1915
Eddy street early Sunday morning. There
seems to be some foundation for the suspi-
cion that the fire was started by an incen-
diary. Two bales of hay were found cut
open and saturated with coal oil, and partly
burned candles were scattered around.
Skootsky and his family were in Alameda
Sunday night when the fire broke out.

Hoped in heaven hereafter;

Very sound of very light

Fills child's clear laughter.

Never forth such notes. nor told

wines for blending purposes.
