When a man who has devoted the
undivided energies of long life to
the accumulation of wealth, comes to
die and commits the unnatural act of
willing his estate to the church or TO
any public institution the people will
adjudge him as guilty of imbecility.

MAMIE, A SONG.

Little Mamie, do you love me?
Tell me, dear one, ere we part,
Whisper low the sweet word, dar-
ling
FIJI with joy my longing heart,
Oh I've loved you long my darling,
But my heart was filled with pain,
For I wondered sadly darling
Ifmy love was but in vain.
All no, not vain, tits joy to love,
Fen though tits unreturned,
IT'S sweeter far tho hopeless pain
Than meier the sweet lesson to
learn,
Little Mamie, am waiting
For the words l long to hear,
Like strain of heavenly music
Stealing on the perfumed air,
Oh whisper softly, softly darling
Tell me that your love is mine,
And we will go far away my darling,
To home blessed with love divine.

Warm Until Jan. 10th.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Dec. 14.-Foster,
the weather predicter, says that after
today until January 10th will be the
warmest part of the winter as an
average, but this period will be re-
markable for extremes of heat and
cold, severe storms, deep SHOWS and
sudden changes. The most severe
storm of the month will occur during
this time. The eastern states will
have bad weather for Christmas,
while it will generally be clear and
cold west of the Mississippi. Inthe lake
region and the Ohio valley will be
mixed weather, generally clearing
and growing colder on that holiday.

Ballads Of Knowledge and Ignorance
l know the names of England's kings,
The facts about Egyptian mummies,
The history of Saturn's rings,
The time card OF the local dummies;
My mind is filled with facts complete;
know how pyramids unexplained,
The price we ought to pay for wheat,
Yet girls l never understand.
1 know the way the trade winds blow,
But not the fitful within of Dora;
l know the reason song birds go,
But never could make out Norsh;
I've studied hard, and tried to learn
All that professors can demand,
And yet have one deep concern,
For girls cannot understand.
And yet sometimes wish l knew
Why good girls often act so queerly;
Why Saint Nitouche who kisses you
Tomorrow gives slight nod merely,
/ never thought my mind was slow,
Nor am 1 lacking -much-in sand;
And yet what pleasure lies before,
When girls we do not understand.

And I'll obey your least command.

Dear Cousin Estella,

And 1 have never seen you,
You have place In my heart.
Sometimes soul meets to soul
And spirits love another,

'Twould be to love you better,
Still l have the pleasure
OF writing you, a letter.
Exchanges thoughts, bring mind tc

I close communion dear,
And is the only consolation
When a loved ones not ear.
