What If We all lay dead below;
Lay as the grass les cold and dead
In God own holy STROUD of snow,
With snow-white stones set foot and head,
With all earth dead and sfrouded white
As clouds that cross the moon at night:
What II that infidel some night
Could then rise mp and see how dead,
How wholly dead and out Of sight
All things with SHOWS sown foot and head
And lost winds waiting up and down
The emptIed fields and emptied town:
Think that grand old infdel
Would rub his hands with fieniish glee,
And say: 81 knew il. knew IL Welt
l knew that death was destiny;
ate, drank, / Knocked at God:
Then as the grass was, and the sod"
All Inc, the grasses and the sod
They are my preachers. Hear them preach,
When they forget tae shroud, and God
Lifts up these blades Of grass to teach
The resurrection! Who shall say
What infdel can speak Us they.

RETORTS TO LAWYERS,
Amusing Answers of Witnesses When Under
Examination.

Amusing Answers of Witnesses When Under
Examination.
From Cassel's Saturday Journal.
1t has sometimes happened that lawyer has.
in the language Of the street. "given himself
away to q smart adversary. Garrow did this
once when examining witness in the court OF
queens bench.
"Are you fortune teller?' he asked
81 am not" replied the man; :but 1 can tell
yours"
The shrewd counsel tripped and was
worsted.
''What is that to be?'' said he.
"Why, sir, was the sly response ''as you
made your first speech at the Old Bailey 80 you
will make your last there"
In like manner, arguing before jury Of
his pleading. He WAS confident OF obtaining
successful result and Lord Newton vexed him
by seeming to be in deep slumber. Addressing
the other lords on the bench, he said:
=, MY lords, it is unnecessary to so on, as Lord
Newton is fast asleep
What was his CONSERVATION when an answer
came:
SAY. n.y." cried the angry judge, '.you will
have proof of that by and by"
And to the astonishment and chagrin of the
young advocate and the intense interest Of
others, Newton luninously reviewed the case
and gave decided judgment against the too
sanguine counsel.
Even the cleverest lawyers have been s'set
down" in open court by equally ready wit
nesses
Ibid You see this tree, that has been me n
toned, by the roadside?" an advocate inquired.
'Yes, sir; saw it very plainly"
at was conspicuous, them"
The witness seemed puzzled by the new word
He repeated his former assertion. Sneered the
lawyer:
''What is tho difference between plain and
conspicuous"
But he was hoist with his own petart.. The
witness smoothly and innocently answered:
81 can sec you plainly, sir, amongst the other
lawyers, though you are not o bit conspicuous"
In another conical instance the attack was
directed against the character of the witness
But it recoiled.
" .. were in the company of these people9"
meanY'
''That may be So" was the dry retor.., "they
are both lawyers"
The blow that destroys the effect of an adj
verse examination il occasionally more acci-
dent than conscious effort. In trial not long
ago a very simple witness was in the box and
after going through his ordeal was ready to
retire. One question remained.
Nov, Mr.. -, has not an attempt been
made to induce you to tell the court . different
story?"
"A different story to what I have told, sir7'
Eyes; 10 IL not sou"
Eyes, sir"
"Upon your oath demand to know who the
persons are who have attempted this?''
'sWell, sir, you've tried a. hard ~ any Of
EN-" was the unexpected answer.
It ended the examination.

ONLY A NEwsBOY.
A Street Waits Dying Dream of Home and
Mother.

from the Chicago Times.
Not many newsboys are from the country.
Most Of them the ccllar-grown products of
city civilization. But row and then one strays
| in from the fields, and sad work they make
of it.
You may have noticed little chap at the
Dearborn street entrance to the post Office
building, having very blue eyes and long scar
or birth mark on his right temple. IL you
didn't notice him you needn't mind looking
for him. He's dead.
That little Arab was from the country. You
would nave understood that il you had hap
pened to be with hiri as was when he died.
He was fighty as a whippoorwiil.
The Sisters of Mercy had him in hand and he
was as comfortable as could be. But he didn't
need their comfors-not bit Of il. He had
comfort to spare. You ought to have heard
him 60 on.
Ma, want some bread an butter. An won't
you have some maple augar on ity'
''Say, Tom, the phebe birds are buildin' ag' in
onto the sleepers of Mungers bridge" The
child sank back upon the pillows of his hospital
cot.
But another dream Of home quickly aroused
him again.
He sat upright.
BOYS, here's a humble nest-here, here
right in the edge Of this winrow" he shouted
in a strained weak voice.
San stacks and stacks Of honeyr'
''Get some water in yer hat an douse isl"
'.Here they come"
"Swat 'emi Swat EN-"
And the little thin hands swung wildly about
his head in circles and angles that only boy
can describe in the excitement of beating of a
swarm Of humble bees with his palm-leaf hat
Then he sank back again, feebly raising his
tightly compressed thumb and finger above
his open mouth and tapping them clean with
his pale lips.
Do You who have broken up the humble
bees nest and heaped your hat with the sticky.
trong-smelling comb that distilled its pungent,
honeycd sweets into your open up-turned lips
as you pressed out the contents of each cell
between your thumb and finger. do you need
to be told what joy the deiirious child was
tasting?
81 Know it. ma" he murmured. "Got 'em
wet awadin' in the creek, but rolled 'em up
clear to my shias. Ne an Tom had TO 60 in
deep to put in some new smellage-stalk pipes in
the 'minny' pens we're buildia'."
The chids eyes wandered until they caught
sight OF the next cot and its occupant. He fam
cied il was his mothers bed and exclaimed:
'Oh, ma, my laies ache me sol Can't I git
in with you jist tonight Its gittin' dark an
I'm cold"
few breaths more ended his wrstched frag-
ment Of city life.
Ihave . fancy that he ID still roaming the
country fields.

"What are you going to do with that coat?''

How Various Nations Sleep.
From Frank Lsslis's illustrated Newspaper.

from FRANK Le9ueb luustroteo newspaper.
In the tropics men sleep in hammocks or
upon mats Of grass. The East Indian unrolls
his light portable charpoy or mattress, which
in the morning is again rolled together and
carried away by him. The Japanese lie upon

neck rest. The Chinese use low bedsteads,

from the Chicago Tribune
The theater was crowded. The curtain had

drous head dresses futtered in the heated aif.
costly fans waved slowly to and fro. and the
fashionable audience turned its eyes ard opera
glasses toward the stage and settled into tie

of the play which the experienced stage man
ager has waited considerably for all the late
corners TO be seated befo-e the bell taps for ths
curtain to rise.
In q conspicuous location about half wly
between the orchestra ard the front seats ~
the parquet circle were three ladies who had
come in unattended about five minutes before
They were noticeable for the wide. fering.
outrageous hats they wore. Directly behind
them sat a demonstrating, despairing man,

gled and squirmcd and craned his neck from
side to side. The hats were too large, too Gloss
together and too richly upholstered. Apparently
unconscious that he was attracting the attep-
ton Of everybody in his neighbOrhood and
bringing the ladies in front of him into un-
pleasant prominence. he perseyered I'LL sounds
OF ill-suppressed laughter were heard on all

The forty or fifty persons who were looking
on saw the lady remove her hat at once, turn
around, and smilingly beg his pardon. They
"a the other two ladies take of their hats also
and the example became instantly contagious
Ten or a dozen other enormous hats came o6
within the next half minute. much TO the relief
of the sufferers directly behind them. Then
the star Of the evening stepped the stage
and the attention Of the audience was attracted
to the performance again.
The details of this pleasing little incident are

The lady whom that man addressed was his
wife aud the other two were his sisters.
