THE GIFT OF LOVE.

Cupid once hunted the wide world Over
To find gift for his love,
And at length he selected q snow white
rose,
Pure as the breast of a dove.
The goddess accepted the gift with smile,
But alas for lovers true.
A cruel thorn. piercing her finger fair,
The crimson hood -drops drew.
She wrung her hands with a gesture of
pain,
While from the wound fast fed
Bright drops, that sprinkled the leaves Of
the rose
And changed its white to red.
Then cunningly Cupid whispered to her:
Behold how the frightened rose
Turns crimson with shame to think II has
The cause Of such keen woes.
10. the believing blood lends it a charm
Rarer than that before.
In punishment, then. for its guilt, swear
1t shall blush forevermore.
And thus fable fashioned the crimson rose
Loves symbol; yet take care,
Ye lovers, lest under its sweetness hide
Thorns wounding unaware.

One Of the workingmen engaged in
tearing down the building for the new
Reading Terminal found peculiar
looking whisky flask the other day.
The flask. which was very ancient.
was made OF solid silver. and when
cleaned did not appear to be any the
worse for its long burial beneath the
ground, On one side Of the flask was
an engraving of the original Indepen-

The flask was full OF thick oily SUBJ

From the few drops remaining an ex-

would have been worth gold dollar
to the owner had he known its va,ua.

He WANTED AIR.


Felt - Brecsc.
Among the guests at a certain pri-
vate residence in Detroit during the
G. A. X. encampment was a we'll
known professor in a noted Eastern
college, says the Nashville American.
The professor had as pleasant room
as there was in the house, but though
1t was on the corner and had a chance
for a circulation of air there. there
was no air to circulate, land. said the
adjutant you know. how hot it was.
One morning the professor appeared
at the table with his hand bandaged
up in cotton cloth. OF course every
one was anxious to know the cause
for he had gone to bed all right the
night before. Madam. he said to the
hostess i don't know how to apologize
to you for what l did last night in my
room. The pain in this hand is moth
ing to the humiliation l feel at hav-
ing so neanly repaid your kind hos
pitality.'
This speech SCI us all on edge.
Why professor, what in the world
did you do so dreadful? Madam,
perhaps you know it was hot las,
night. Though my room was as
pleasant as could be. still must say
it was hot there. 1t was long before

flames rushing over M. felt that

the windows. 1t would not open.

could not raise the sash. At last in
desperation / dashed my fist through
the pane of glass and at once felt the
relief of a. cooling breeze. l went
back to bed and slept soundly and
comfortably until morning. When l
awakened / was conscious of pain in
my hand. Isaw it was cut and bleed
ing and that the bed clothes were
red from the Aow. Suddenly there
came to me consciousness of my
agony during the night and l looked
at the windows to see which l had
broken. Madam, I assure you--'
why, professor you needn't
worry about light of window glass.
l assure you feel more concerned
about your hand
''But it wasn't window glass I
broke. exclaimed the professor. That
is what worries me-

A prominent gentleman OF this city
was speaking recently of dueling,
and in the course OF the conversation
told the following, says the Augusta
Herald:
Some years ago there nourished in
Virginia politician who WAS always
getting into trouble. He had been
challenged time and again. and he
always went when called on, for he
was game.
He never would shoot at his antag-
onist, however, and luckily escaped
being hit. Finally he was called out by
lame man and went OF course.
The dueling ground lay beside the
public road. where q large mile post
told the distance to the city. The man
with the game leg drew the stand
next to this post, and he asked as
favor that he be allowed to lean against
it when he shot.
This was granted by his polite an
tagonist and the principals were
ordered to take their positions when
the other one said: ..Gentlemen. I
have granted the request Of my antag-
onist to lean against that mile post
when he shot. and now l have a

A LETTER OF COINCIDENCE.



to u Bereaved Friend.
The following eloquent and touch
ing letter OF coincidence by Mazzini is
published for the first time in the Cen
fury. 1t is written to the mother OF a
deceased friend of the great Italian:
Like the Macedonian legion,
when one was falling. draw nearer all
you that yet remain; love each other
more dearly; see, help. advise one an
other more than ever; commune with
her who has loved you and loves you
all by cOmmunlng more intimately
with one another and remember. for
Gods sake that there is no such thing
as death for all that is best in us; that
what people call death is only trans
formation and step onward in life.
Love is q vOuchsafer for Immortality.
We would not scatter a single flower
on tomb il there was not an instinct
in the soul teaching US that our love
pleases the cherished one who is buried
beneath. and depend upon me there is
more truth discovered by these flashes
of the virgin soul than by all the
NAAus CloOOIdtC0 lttutCIuS VI
analysis and reasoning knowledge.
"And this faith Of mine which l
would give all my actual life gladly
for feeling able to infuse into you all
and my grieving with you all over our
loss, and my loving you all moro
dearly than before-that is all the
consolation can give to you, dearest
friend. / wish could be with you
during these days and it makes me
feel bitterly the bondage of my condi-
ton. Still. l live, think, feel with you
the best part OF the day; and dreamed
of you all during the few hours sleep
l had last night. My dear. dear friend,
how l should wish to be able to take
on my own, poor, doomed life all your
SORROWS and to yield to your own all
the smiles that your affections have
been yielding to it. . :"

wav we know of. Manure hauled out
in April will come back in the shape OF
hay in July. and the increased roos
growth. as the result Of manuring' Will
be almost if not altogether, equal TO
the exhaustion of the manure. AFTER
the meadows have taken a start and
are too high to allow of the spreading
of the manure, or if it be too coarse
drive on to the pasture. Get the ma
uure out somewhere on the grass II

stance the soil will catch it and hungry
grass roots will snatch up every atom
OF fertility quicker than one can say
Jack Robinson. and hold 1t until
some other plant is ready to profit by
it's death. A few years OF this method
of manuring will prepare the farm for
profitable crops of corn. no matter
what the season or what the price. and
after bic crop of corn it is easy 70
grow big crops of oats or wheat and
get back to grass and manure with a
soil but little the worse OF the big
drain in the way OF cereal production.
This we have long been satisfied is the
true policy. and by it we have added
so per cent to our corn crops and at
the same time facilitated the method
of getting out the manure. 1t is not
difficult. If there be first a willing
mind" to keep the farm clear If there
is always place ready for the
manure; but if it has to wait for n
field to be ready there will be great
waste. no matter how great the de-
termination to keep the farm clean. 49,

on q lawn is the admiration of all
passing the highway. They lay white.

that of the Leghorn, and they never
set therefore, they come the nearest
a perpetual layer Of any fowls l have
ever handled. have wondered why
farmers who wanted to breed exclu-
sively for eggs did not try the silver
spangled Hamburg instead of the Leg
horn. Some seem to think them ten
der when young and still others think
they are purely fancy breed. and
while they are one OF the older breeds,
and are known al! over Great Britain
as one Of the fancy breeds. they make
one OF the best fowls for the farmer
who wants the egg basket kept
filled summer and winter. They
prove delicate when small. Dur.
ing wet weather their coops
and everything about them
must be kept perfectly dry. l have
bred these beautiful fowls for six
years. The first trio came from Ken
lucky. and the following spring j pro-
cured eggs from a jancier. and part OF
them had single comb. kept them
in quarters by themselves every spring
until the Matching season is over; and
they bear confinement we'll. intro.
duce new blood into the flock every
season with a new male bird. This
season had no culls in the flock with
the exception that one would crop
out now and then with single comb.
1t is not good plan to keep Ham
burgs and the larger breeds ali in the
same quarters over winter. as thew re-.
quire different care and feeding or one
or the other will cease laying and not
do well. The better way for the aver
age farmer will be to get one pure
bred flock Of any breed that suits his
fancy. and stick to it and above all
things keep his flock pure. -Practi-

Improving Fiocks of Sheep.

Though the price OF wool is eX.
tremely low it is SO necessary pro-
duct that if properly managed 1t may
always be made profitable. Due re-
gard must be had in this to the i'm
provement of flocks as we'll as to the
increase of weight and value of the
fleece. A farmer who grades up his
flock either for mutton or wool adds
so mucn to its salable value that this
alone makes profit. though the wool
crop may not much more than pay ex-
penses. Continuing the same policy
of flock improvement, the wool grow
err finds after while that he
can sell his wool at greater
profit. BY this time he will prob
ably begin to breed some thorough
breds. In few years the grades will
be discarded as not sufficiently profit
able in comparison. The flock of
scrubs is thus replaced with one of pure
blood with comparatively little ex-
pense except the first cost of a ram
and one or two thoroughbred ewes
with which to start the business This
is the way that most Of the successful
breeders began business. Few OF them
had much money at first. They have
grown rich by beginning in small
way. constantly improving their tlocks
until they are worth many thousand
dollars. All the way up their sheep
have increased in profitableness and
what they have done is possible to all
who will give equal attention and care
to the business OF flock Improvements.

BAD FAITH Is ALLEGED.
The Main From the Steam Heat Plant
Reasons Against 1t.

some of the largest factors in bringing about
the recent reduction of insurance rates." said
d. A. Spencer, president OF the board OF under
writers, yesterday, twas the agreement OF the
city TO build main from the Steam Heat and
Power Companys plant to the water front in
order that that eompany's pumps might be used
in pumping up salt water in case OF emergency
when fire occurs. The city has refused 10
build the line and has been guilty of bad faith
in the matter, for it was largely on account of
this agreement that the reduction in rates was
made.
"This pipe line was even larger factor than
the ireboat in bringing about the reduction in
rates. Mr.. Conroy, the assistant manager of the
Pacific Insurance Union, called ON Mr.. Fisher,
the president OF the Steam Heat and Power
Company, learned of the arrangements, and was
extremely pleased with the appliances OF that
company, as we're all the fire insurance men
who have been here. Mr.. Fisher understood
that contract had been made with the city to
furnish the pipes and valves of this line, and
on the strength of his assurance Mr.. Conrcy
Steam Heat and Power Company agreed to fur
nish power for pumping purposes free of charge
Tor the next two years"
President Hall, of the board of aldermen, was
asked whether the city had made any agreement
such as that spoken OF by Mr.. Spencer, and said:
.'Ihe old council did agree to construct the line,
but was opposed TO it, and the new council has
done nothing in regard to it since the charter
was adopted. The pipe line would cost about
$500. and would benefit only small number of
taxpayers. We have laid new pipe lines along
the water front, and these, together with the
fir boat, will afford abundant protection to
property. pipe line from the steam Heat and
Power Companys plant would rarely be of any
practical use, and would not give returns for its
