and the cautionary whisper Of hi

new order of ideas and sentiments wer

the muse, to whom he appealed for in
spiration, Bekky Bright. He was nov
an admirer of beauty; he had his stan
dard established, and that standard wa!
Bekky Bright. He was going to write
a letter,-it was to he in poetry, too
and it was to be addressed 10 Bekky
Bright.
On Friday afternoon before Easter
David took down the slate that hung
along with the almanac above the
maDtel-piece, and proceeded to his
: fathers gin-house, where he laid
himself fat upon the screw-sweep
after the manner of sailors upon the
bowsprit of ship. He placed the
slate at a convenient distance above his
face on the sweep, and after pondering
some minutes ventured to write the
following couplet:
David Hartman is my name and single is
my life,
And happy will the gal be wat gifts to be my
wife
But moment afterwards, he rubbed
it out-all trace of it; for his conscience
accused him of plagiarism, i'll much
as he suddenly remembered having
seen the same lines on the fy-leaf Of
bis friend, Martin Sawyers Hymn
Book,-the only difference being the
substitution of bis own name for that
of Martin's: besides, it was too boastful
for his unpresuming nature. He ac-
cordingly replaced it by stanza which
ran thus:
When kin read my titles kleer
To menshius in the skies,
III bid farewell TO every fear,
And wipe my weepin' eyes.
"Wy that's hylne !' he exclaimed,
as he again rubbed out what he had
written. After kicking his feet alter
nstely in the air, and scratching his
head violently, he produced another
couplet, which was more successful as
far as it went: here it is:
My heads a akin, my hearts beatin';
has no wish for sleep nor eatin'.
This was original; and possessed the
additional merit Of being true; for MS
restlessness and loss of appetite were
the main facts upon which his sister
had based her suspicious of his meta
morphosis into June bug, and which |
had occasioned his father and mother |
so much uneasiness about him. David, |
however, could not proceed another
line further. He slapped his forehead,
groaned, kicked and tore his hair, but |
he could not advance: the inspired
labors of David Hartman like the
Fayrie Queen and Don Juan was
doomed to remain an unfinished effort |
of genius according to the usual meth
oos of composition,-though the plan
he soon afterwards adopted succeeded
admirably.
1t is said that people in love are ex-
cessively irritable. The vast number
of suicides and duels among lovers is
proof of this. The most trivial disap-
pointment disturbs the temper, and
any display Of indifference is fragrant

weather continues here, and the ra,
ages of the grip have steadily grow
more severe and more fatal since th
beginning of the present month. Th
official list Of the department of healt
shows that the death rate for the pr,
sent week is unprecedented. The nun
Der of deaths since March, compare
with the number of the correspondent
period of 1890, illustrates the preser
condition of things very clearly. Th
table is made up by weeks. 1S90-frs
week 434, second week 1913, third wee
1853, fourth week 4l9; 1S9l-frst wee
49l, second week 709, third week s4(

The returns for this week are as We
incomplete, but are estimated as above

OF fourteen for the month.
A WHOLE FAMILY VICTIMS OF THE

City in this county.
New YORK, March 30.-The health
officials report eighteen deaths to-day

makes l30 in all since the disease made
its last appearance.
THE GRIP LETTING UP IN CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, April AT noon today
but IS deaths were recorded at the
health department., as against 100 yes
terday. Registrar Tomlinson predicts
that unless there is return of the hor-
rible weather of the past few weeks,
the grip epidemic will soon be a thing
of the past.
HOW 1T GOT ITS NAME.
New York SUM-
"La grippe" isn't the grippe, and ''the
grippe" isn't la grippe. The word is
familiar but not high toned. 1t is a
French term for influenza, but the
grippe that we are now troubled with
isn't influenza, neither is influenza that
''grippe". 1t is for doctors to tell US Just
what the abominable thing really is.
Laymen only know by sad experience
what it isn't.
Never since the fall Of the original
Eiffel tower was there word scattered
50 widely and in such an astonishingly
short period, and the glory of the scat
,ering belongs to New York, for the
French paper here, the Courier des
Etats Unis, was the first to refer to ii
as la grippe when its Paris contempora-
les called it pinfuenzd. The other
New York papers caught the gripre
rom the Courier, the London journals
rot it from New York, and away it few
ike the" Blizzard" until it made the
our of the world in the shortest time
~ record. But it is the wrong word
.fter all.

LEADER PREMIUMS.
A Variety of Handsome Presents TO
be Given to Subscribers This
Month.
Read the List Over Carefully and
Make Your Choice Before il
is Too Late.

We desire to close out all OF our pre-.
miums tins month, and in order to do SC
offer them as per terms given below.
There are nearly 400 premiums, repre-
septIng a cash value of about 5000. All
of these premiums are 70 be given to
subscribers absolutely free. No sub,
scriber, however, will be entitled to a
premium except by paying his or her sub
scriptiou in advance the length of time
specified IN the table below. The only
exception to this ruls is where subscribers
have taken the trouble to save the pre-
MUM coupons" We make the exception
only because we advertised to give some
OF the premiums for coupons, and we do
as we agree. Twenty-Five coupons from
The DAuY LEADER or ten from the
WEEKLY will secure anv premium that
raying one dollar in advance will secure.
If you have no coupons then you mus
pay the specified time in advance. These
are our terms and it will be useless to ask
for any others.
As the number OF premiums is a little
less than 400 and the circulation OF The
DAILY and WEEKLY LEADER combined
amounts to over ! 400 it will be seen that
there are not enough premiums fer all
subscribers. In giving them out we shall
follow the rule Of first come first served.
New subscribers as well as old may take
advantage ofthe opportunity to secure a
handsome book or picture free. Club
raisers who are working tor the prizes to
be awarded Aug. | should remember this
and when sending orders state which one
of the premiums is wanted by the sub
scriber. All of these premiums have
been described in previous issues of THE
LEADER and although a page could be
filled with descriptions and testimonials, it
will only be stated that the cash value OF
each is as shown in the table. Anyone
desiring the novels may choose any TWEEN
ty. five from a list OF $50 which will be fur
nished on application. Samples of all the
premiums may be seen at this Office. Sub
scrlbers who have had one or more of the
premiums will not be entitled to the same
premium again, but are entitled to any or
all the other premiums by paying the
proper amount. Following is the list with
forms.

1t seems almost incredible that people
for a little gain will palm off on their fell
low beings articles of food that are abso-
lutely Infamous in their vileness. Two
cases recently came before a London jus
tice that ought to have ended in severe
punishment of the culprits. But they
didn't. The charge against both defend
ants was that of working horses in an I'M
fit condition. A brief and carefully color.
less report Of a London paper says that in
the first case the animal was in such a
pitiful state that while the police inspector
was watching it it fell down on the road
and died. The other was going on three
legs and had a horrible wound on the
fourth. The animals were being cruelty
logged to drive them along, and it trans
pired that one had come from Chester-le
Street and the other from Sunderland-a
distance of twelve miles.
The police alleged-and It was not de-
nied-that the object Of bringing the ami
mails this distance was that they might be
skinned, packed in tubs and exported as
beef to Antwerp. A large trade of this
Kind has lately sprung up, and as much as
twenty tons Of the Gateshead beef" was
