great mistake not to make some provision for

He Would Not Smoke.


 The Sardinian peasants are fond of a joke, if their jokes are not always of the keenest. Here is story, modern at least in its present form, of the tanning of a shrew. It is entitled ''The Girl who Did Not Like Smoke":
 There was once priest who had niece who was resolved not to marry. Often she was asked, but she would not listen; for she got it into her head that she would not have man who smoked. Finally, young fellow came and asked for her hand. Her uncle said to him: "Do you smokes'' ssYes, sir" he replied. "Then my niece will re- fuse you, for she Will not have any one who smokes." But the suitor said: sIs that alls I'll let the smoking alone" The uncle called his niece. She said, yes; and they were married.
 In the evening of the day they were mar ried, the bridegroom, without saying syl- Table to his wife, went off to bed, and was soon fast asleep. And in the same way ev- cry day when he came home he never spoke, but went straight to bed without taking any notice of her. She thought this conduct strange, and began to fret and pine. Her uncle said to her one day: "What is the matter that you are always sa1s Does he i'll treat yous' No, he doesn't ill treat me; but when he comes home at night he never speaks but goes to bed and sleeps. In fact, when he is in the house he never utters word to me-" Then the uncle spoke to the husband; "What is the matter, my son! Are you not satisfied with my neicea" "Oh. yes, uncle," answered he, t'but somehow, when don't smoke. I cannot keep my eyes open" When the old man repeated this to the bride, she said: If that's it, he shall fmoke." And from that time she was never satisfied when he he'd the pipe out of his mouth.

The Genesis Of Riley's Poems. From the Chicago Mail

It appears that not many years ago
 James Whitcomb Riley was Q jolly sign
 writer of Greenfield, Ind, and was not
 funny rhymes and sentimental verses jus
 because he thought of them, but it never
 occurred to him that they would be read,
 sung, and admired by everybody. Lee O.
 Harris, principal of the village school, sent
 some of the first efforts to the Indianapolis
 papers, and once a week musical little
 poem appeared, signed J. W. Riley. Then,
 as the name became familiar, it grew to
 James w. Riley, and it was not long before
 it became James Whitcomb Riley. Read
 CTS began to look him up and children
 were reciting his verses. He had not yet
 essayed to spin the Hoosier dialect. In the
 Indianapolis Journal twelve dialect poems
 were published in as many weeks. These
 were ostensibly the work of Ben. F. John
 son of Boone county, and kept readers guessing at first as to the identity of the author. Among them were the stOld Swimmin' Hole" and t'When the Frost is on the Pumpkin" which have travelled the country over. Since these were written
 Riley has devoted most of his attention to the Hoosier dialect, which is never exagger- ated, always musical. Soon after Riley became known throughout Indiana and
 his poems were constantly reproduced in the eastern newspapers, he complained that an author could not gain recognition from the eastern literary lights of the mag azines unless his fame had already been
 made through some accidental channel. To prove that the eastern magazines attached
 more to name than to worth Riley resorted to trick. At Kokomo, Ind, were two bright weekly papers, both edited by young
 men who were Riley's friends. These edi- tors had part in the affair. In the Fri
 bune there appeared a beautiful "unpub-
 lished poem by Edgar A. Poe." There was
 no doubt about it. On the fly leaf of an old dictionary which 8 prominent citizen, whose name was given, had lately &C., quired by inheritage from New England | relative, was the poem in Poe's grabbed hand. It was of Poe's peculiar fashion and was entitled Leonaine. Nobody but Poe could write such poem. Everybody, including the eastern literary lights, said so. A representative of the then Scrib- ner, now Century, went to Kokomo, Ind. !, to secure fac-simile of it, because the owner of that valuable dictionary would not let it pass from his hands. But before
 he was actively at work of getting an exact copy of the lines on the f1y-leaf, the Dis patch come out, according to program with an expose. Riley not only success fully forged the poem, but he had as successfully counterfeited Poe's handwrit- ing,

Active and Strong Opening-Heavy
 Realization in Corn Roads-A Set.
 back Among a Few Low-Prfced
 Shares-The Close Firm and Active. NEW YORK, August 26.
 Stocks opened active and decidedly strong, and
 while the pressure to sell was sufficient to force
 a reaction to the level of the opening figures,
 prices could not be kept down. Later marked
 advances were made in some stocks, Union Pa
 cinc being conspicuous for it's strength through
 out the day The realizations were heaviest in
 the corn roads, and as the Chicago people are
 engaged in great grain deal at present the
 grangers are left more to themselves than of late and therefore suffered more bear pressure than the remainder of the list. Lead, owing to the uncertainty of the outcome of tomorrow g meeting, dropped away per cent. Among the low-priced shares there was setback in the Min neapolis & St. Louis shares, but the Chesapeake & Ohios and some other specialties scored large gains on comparatively large transactions for those stocks. The demand, especially for for. eigners, fell away, and when well into the after. noon prices dropped, many stocks losing nearly l all the early gain and in some cases even some | thing in addition. The final dealings, however,
 again developed considerable strength in the last hour and the market closed firm and active.
