Housewife. air that room. the spare-room dark
Throw ope the shutters wide, pull up the cur.
tAins grim;
Let sunshine warm and bright dispel the usual
gloom
That settles like rau throushous the shut-up
room.
Let airy breezes blow aud stuny corners
reach
The very wallis would cry for air could they md
speech;
with nrm, relentless step approach the couch
Where semi-yearly guests are shown, and left
These victims may at morn assure you Of sweet
rest;
May smile and give no sign Of rage within the
breast,
Nor tell the awful dreams that held them in .
vice;
Their smothered gasps for air. their fright at
sounds Of mice.
But these same guests receive important news
Some unexpected news that calls them far
away;
They kiss and say sood-by-say; Lovely time
we've had"
The falsehood adds its weight to other feelings
D4d.
II now and then guest, when ready to depart,
Some bold, brave men possessed OF much more
grit than heart,
Would there present the case-would say just
what he thought,
The work might be begun. the needed change
be wrought
The hostess, possibly. would shed some bitter
tears
And call the man . "bear," or hurt him By her
sncers:
But In righteous cause securely he may stand,
And with prophetic eye see changes near at hand.
The work would spread in time, till spare.room
vaults will be
A thing OF long ago-a past barbarity.
Housewife, forestaii this guest and give him
lots Of air;
The angel Of his Dreams perchance, your face
will wear.
And as your hand he takes, when ready TO de-
part,
His compliments viii fall like dew upon your
heart
So, housewife. air that room, the spare-room
dark and dim.
Throw opc' the shutters wide, let air and sun
shine In.

Was 1t q Burg1ars

Not many days ago a gentleman Of
repute, who lives in Red Cloud, and
carries on a fourishing business, fin.
ished up his days work which had
Melted him a nice surplus,a and wendell
his way homeward, where after spend.
ing several hours, in social chat with
his wife and children, retired for the
night to dream Of the wealth no had
made, and Of the treasurer he prop os-
cd to lay up-notU in heaven but in
this world. He thought how on the
morrow he would sell so many articles
how the profits would DO great and oil
that. But how was IL with his good
wife at home. She had been conniving
how to help her LEGGED lord to make
this mint Of money so that the paths
in the future would he strewn more
| plentifully with bright spots. To
| that end she had planned many Of the
household affairs so that each might
be made less expensive, and one Of
those expenses to be cnrtailed was
bread. The good wife therefore,
while her hubby was dreaming, had
fixed up q bottle Of yeast and careful
ly corked the same and placed il in an
alright compartment to keep it cool
until needed in the morning. She
said nothing to her husband about
the yeast, and later on retired also.
He laid there sleeping the sleep Of
the happy and successful business man
and pleasantly dreamed Of the time
when he should rise to a~fluence. BY
this time tho wife had gone to dream
land. In the wee sma' hours the
yeast got to working, the business
man commenced changing his dream
to that which made him
fearful. He dreamed that al
ter all his days labor that a
burglar was trying to get itto the
house. Just then the cork few out
Of the yeast bottle with a terrible ro-
port, and up jumped the b. m clutch
ed his revolver and slid around to an
open window and waited for the sup
posed burglar, in the meantime the
wife discovered the cause and laughed
tremendously, the b. m, still hunting
the burglar. When told what caused
the disturbance, he sighed but quietly
remarked, for Godsake Samantha.
don't say any thing to the neighbors
about it, and I'll buy you a new dress
However the story was TO good to

Of it shortly afterwards.

Mike Finkenbinder, is o peculiar
fellow, and while his voice hasn't got
the onorous sound Of a fog horn,
yet il has a leanness to it that has a
drawing effect. The other day Mike
was going to show the Bugcaters how
people down in Missouri hived bees
when they swarmed, therefore Mike
waived the other fellows aside and
says "l-e-t me- s.h-o-w You how
they hive bees in Gods
country. All right said the other
fellows and stepped aside, Mike waded
in. In q minute afterwards one Of
the fellows cried out bark ! is that a
fire in town Z? No, yc, gods, no, i; was
Mike Finkcnbinder hollering for
Hades sake to take those blamed bees
of of me, they amt the same kind
that stays in Missoury." Mike had
evidently been used to hiving
democratic bees. Mike swears
that 10000 needles couldn't
haye hurt him, as did those
internal bees.
