The Benny Birch Trees.

All the trees Of the forest
Are dear to my heart,
/ love them together,
love them apart;
But none are so friendly,
So anxious 10 please,
So neighborly kind,
As the bonny birch trees.
There is grandeur and strength
In the towering pine,
And the elm-tree's green foliage
Wreathes like vine;
But spite of their beauty,
Far dearer than these,
BY wayside or woodland,
love the birch trees.
The maple stands firm
As a king on his throne,
Bnt the sweet. social birch trees
Would not live alone;
They gather in clumps,
And with friendliest ease,
They lean toward each other
Like loving birch trees.
icy but tDciF arms
With reckoning crook.
They CLEAN in the sunshine,
They CLINT by the brook;
They stand in the meadow-grass
Up to their knees,
And balance to partners.
These giddy birch trees.
They are white as the moonbeams,
And green as the grass;
They are bold as lover,
And shy as lass;
They laugh with the wind.
And they sing with the breeze,
For Luck is but pluck
Say the merry birch trees.
They never look dark ....
In the gloomiest day,
They are never too sober
To trolic and play;
They are never ashamed
TO bend their stiff knees.
And they keep their robes white
Like angelic birch trees.
They never seem cold,
Or indifferent or odd.
They are never too proud
For a whisper or nod
No hali-heartcd. fair weather
Lovers are these,
They are leal. true and loyal,
My kindly birch trees.
And | hope if reach
The fair land OF my dreams,
That close by the banks
OF the crystalline streams,
Where the asphodel blossoms
Blow sweet 10 the breeze.
! shall see the white ghosts
OF my bonny birch trees.
And know not Whist tendcrer
Tryst there could be.
For the hearts that love
And the hearts that love me.
If, when Death is A dream
To forget at our ease,
We should meet and love on
Meath the bonny birch trees

A Travelling Sanitarium.

"You would hardly imagine that
this car is a travelling sanitarium, I
SUPPOSE" said the conductor of one
Of the West Side electric cars" but it
is fact. 1 have several passengers
who ride back and forth over the line
every bright, pleasant day. They
imagine that they obtain some benefit
from the electricity, but I confess
am unable to see just how they figure
it out. Passengers in our cars are not
filled full ofelectricity, but thesepeople
seem to imagine that the car and the
air surrounding it are surcharged with
electricity, and that all they have to
do, if they desire to be electrified, is to
take a street car ride. I have no
doubt that these rides do much good
to the patients, as they thus secure
an outing without the fatigue OF Pc
destrianism. But the electrical part of
the scheme looks rather gauzy to me.
Vi course many paralytics visit our
power station to be shocked by cleo
tricity, and if there is any virtue what
ever in that sort of treatment there
is the place to get it."-Chicago Mail.

. Metallic French Women.

just at present the native women in
Paris who have the most claim to
beauty-or who have cultivated the
orchid to the last degree reach their
effects by means that could be termed
the artificialties Of simplicity. They
don't aim at all at being merely and
vulgarly pretty. Even the favorites
of the Nouveau Cirque want to be dis
tinguished, if you please. Taking the
list OF Paris actresses and singers
through you could not put your finger
on one who is lovely as Lillian Rus
sell, forinstance, is lovely The precise
term, OF course, never applies to a.
French woman. The prettiest Of the
actresses all have a vein of that
metallic quality that Henry James
talks about. Now, what exactly are
the components OF their supreme chic?
One ofthemost regularly pretty people
is Mile Depoix OF the Gymnaise. Her
face is OF a rounded oval. her nose
tolerably straight, her eyes large and
luminous and her mouth small and
well cut. The large and luminous
eyes are an exceptions; almost all the
women actually before the public have
small, marrow eyes, eyes after the
manner OF Jane Hading's Courier
journal.

Women Who Have Nerves,

The medical director Of a big gymna-
sum was talking recently about
women's nervous worries and woes.
physical deformities and defcien-
cies," said he, "such as lateral curva-
ture OF the spine, wry necks and
stopped shoulders and diseases OF the
digestion, are quite as common among
men as among women, perhaps more
SO. But nervous troubles are far
more usual withwomen and they seem
to be increasing every year in fre-
quency.
"Take woman who has been whip
ping herself up to her work and her
pleasures with drugs and stimulants
till the system will no longer respond.
By-and-by she goes all to pieces and
seems to be the most hopeless wreck
living. Sometimes she really is a
wreck and sometimes she has courage
enough to try to pull herself together
again. The gymnasiums are full OF
such women. They have to begin at
the very beginning and give themselves
soul and body to the task OF regener-
alton"
And they succeed?n

The Homely but Useful Girl,

The ''useful'' girl, writes Ella Wheel
er Wilcox in the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal, is not noticeable in any way.
Everybody makes use of her and
everybody likes her She has no
enemies and no lovers. Women like
her very much and men speak highly
OF her when she is brought to their
attention in some way, but they
never think about her voluntarily.
They appreciate her highly when she
helps them out OF corner and thank
her cordially and then forget her I'M
til they need her again. She is not
apt to marry for men do not care for
useful girls before marriage She can
sew, get a dinner if needs be; amuse the
children, assist in getting up entertain
ments for other people to participate
in, and she is an excellent nurse. and
reads aloud we'll, and sings little
enough to rock a child asleep or to
help out a chorus. She is like the
green 'everlasting,' -scentless, and
not beautiful, yet Indispensable in
garden.
