LOVES, QuARRELS.

Since there's no help, come let US kiss and pars-
Nay. have done; you get no more Of me;
Ana an glad-yea, glad with all my heart
That thus SO ceanly myself can free.
Shake hands forever, cancel all our VOWS,
And when we meet at any time again,
BE it not seen in either of our brows
That we one jot Of former love retain.
Now, al the last gasp of Loves latest breath.
When, his pulse failing, Passion sleepless lies,
When Faith is kneeling by his bed of death
And Innocence is closing up his eyes
Now, if thou wouldst, when all have given hi.n
over
From death to life thou might him yet recover.

Marnets m window Cnsinrs.

There is decided novelty about the
idea of applying magnets to windows to
prevent the rafting of the sashes, but
this can now be done simply and effect
lively A bar magnet whose two poles
project toward the face of the sash is
inserted lengthwise in either side of the
window Fixed rigldly in the window
frames are rods of iron, and the attrac-
ton between the magnets and the iron
rods prevents the play which is usually
the cause of rafting The consequence
is that the sash need no longer be made
to fit so closely that dampness will cause
it to swell and become difficult to open.
The power exerted between the magnets
and side rods is just enough to effect the
desired object, while not enough to in
terfere with the easy raising or lowering
of the windows. New York Recorder.

A woman's High Resolve,

According to .Gy creed woman's place is
wherever circumstances beyond her control
have situated her.
If she feels a constant and never ceasine
rebellion against her environments, and
Graves a change of conditions, the change
will come. We may whine and complain at
fate all our lives without ever accomplishing
anything. But the soul that looks steadily
in the face of its desire, makes no complaint,
recognizes no i'll fortune, but demands from
life the thing it Graves, and believes it will
be given-that soul will obtain its wish SO
sure as the sun Shines
There are no circumstances which can
overthrow or circumvent the passionate re-
solve of a noble, earnest soul-Ella Wheeler
Wilcox in Globe-Democrat.

The "Portable Ledger"

A genius living in East Eighty-sixth
street has invented what he claims to be
most valuable apparatus for people who
seek shelter in large cities at time when
boarding houses are crowded by reason of
some important gatherings convention
or the like. He calls it ''the portable
ledger" and gravely announces that he
will ask the patent Office to issue letters
patent OH it. The portable lodger'' is a
harness like arrangement, which the shut
out stranger puts on his body, the points
of contact being covered by lambs wool.
When he can't get bed, and doesn't
want to sleep on the floor, the stranger
simply puts on his harness, drives a couple
of nails in the WEI of hallway, or wher-
ever he can get II chance, and hangs him
self up. lie can place the hooks at what
ever height anG angle he chooses, and
slumber peacefully, free from floor
draughts and damp streets.-New York

Makes the conclusion plain and clear.

And If he lie not, then indeed.

ing steam and water~into the wrecked
coach load of people. Then ensued .
