BETTER NOW.

If you have fragrant flower In your hearts own garden grown, For your friend, and some glad hour Mean to make it all her own, Do not wait; the lilied coflin Sees no wreath; dear heartl Learn how Loves best blossoms may be given
 Better now. If box of alabaster For your darling's head you hold, Costly, precious, and would cast her All it's sweetness manifold, Some glad day, wait not Tomorrow - By her grave, perhaps, you'll bow Stay not for the touch of sorrow;
 Break it now. Better silence by the casket, Funeral eulogy unsaid, Than the living lips that ask 1t Lack the word that's merited- Death reads no obituary, Hears no requiem; learn how Praise to speak. pre-mortuary;
 Speak 1t now. Better coffin plain and flowerless, Holding one whose life was filled Full of fragrance. Gifts are powerless When the beating heart Is stilled. Kiss belated. love post-portem Cannot smooth the furrowed brow; Garlands throw no backward perfume
 Wreath them now. Julia H. May tp Good Housekeeping.

uypnotism and Crime.

'Can a hypnotized person be made tc commit crime?' was very emphatically answered in the affirmative by Dr. Voisin, of Paris, in paper delivered before the British association. He sug- gested to subject under his influence to commit acts of incendiarism while hypnotically asleep, and there was obe. dience in each case. More than that. a woman was recently sentenced in Paris for succession of acts of robbery. It was ascertained that she had been habitually hypnotized, and upon inves- tigation it was discovered that she had robbed under the suggestion of outside parties.

An Ancient Negro.

Richard Hoops (colorcd) who claims to have been born in ITO, is still living in dilapidated little shanty on the Cole county (Mo.) side of the Osage river railroad bridge. He has occupied the same uninviting quarters for a number of years. To all outward ap- pearances he is just the same that he was twenty years ago. Occasionally he does small jobs of work, but for the most time hunts and fishes, and is very proficient in both the latter callings. Some people think that crows are not good to eat, but Uncle differs from them. He considers crow meat only second to good fat possum.

AT THE WINDOWS OF THE MORNING.


 What joy to stand at break of day, Watching the gathering glory Of sunlight brightening all the way, With bird note song and story; When the Queen of Morn comes forth with
 pride,
 Both heaven and earth adorning; When the Hand of God throws open wide All the Windows of the Morning. When low in the eastern sky afar Hangs molten mirror olden; Where breezes leap from star to star, Through sun rays growing golden; When scenes of darkness fade and ice Away from the hours of dawning; When the face of the God of Day we see Through the Windows of the Morning. When nature smiles and weeps in turn, But not with tears of sadness; When morning mists from flowing urn Pour life and joy and gladness; When Sol in golden chariot rides Forth proudly without scorning; When in the heavens his glory bides Near the Windows of the Morning. Inspiring thought-that when our time Of life on earth is ended There's promise of a world sublime Where earth and heaven are blended; Where day and night will be once moro Joined in new life dawning, When, mirrored on shining shore, Ope the Windows of the Morning. Clark w. Bryan in Good Housekeeping.
