IN THE DEAD HAND.

They tell the tale unsmiling,
Old men, their hours beguiling
As they can;
Each annual November
They sadden who remember
lnkermana.
Yet Of that FIELD one story
Shines through the gloom and glory
OF the fight;
Over the canuons' roaring
There sings a lark song soaring
Out Of sight.
Aloof. where men lay bleeding,
In fatal pain whose pleading
Made no cry,
Shot pierced and snber smitten,
A young and gallant Briion
Crept To die,
Al sunset there they found him
With the red snow around him,
And his hand
Laid on the Book whose healing
Al hearts to heaven appealing
Understand,
And meath his frozen fingers
Those words whose hope Outlingera
Human strife
Glowed like a stars reelection
" am the Resurrection
And the l.ife,m
Comrades to burial bore him,
But not deaths rending tore him
From his prize,
For to his hand caresslng
Still chung the leaf whose blessing
Closed his eyes.
o Christian song supernal,
Words sweetest love eternal
Ever said
Peace at your call comes flying,
And they who clasp you dying
Are not dead.

Why Boiled water Free1os Easily,

" hhg A1bAAth NHANA ANFNSH A@"aAAJf
Water which is hot Of course cannot
freeze until it has parted with its heat;
but water that has been boiled will,
other things being equal, freeze sooner
than water which has not been boiled.
A slight disturbance of water disposes
it to freeze more rapidly, and this is the
cause which accelerates the freezing Of
boiled water. The water that has been
boiled has lost the air naturally con-
tanned in it, which on exposure to the
atmosphere it begins again to attract
and absorb. During this process of alb
sorptiOn motion is necessarily pro-
duced among its particles, slight GER
tainly and imperceptible, yet probably
sufficient to accelerate its congelation.
In unboiled water this disturbance does
not exist; indeed water when kept per-
fectly still can be reduced several de-
grees below the freezing point without
its becoming ice, ce,-Broolilyn Eagle.
bad Taste I'm Jewel Designs.
There are some incongruities for which
it is difficult to account. Why will a
woman who is o good judge of picture
hang on her person naturalistic bug or
flower made out of gold and diamonds
The Prince of Wales buys much jewelry;
it is his favorite gift on wedding occa-
sions, and he misses taste just as often
as anybody else. In fact he must bear
some of the blame of keeping bad de-
signs in vogue. According to reports,
he presented not long ago to a profess
sionally musical bride brooch which
was an imitation Of a violin, and his gift
to his niece who was lately married was
a diamond set flower. The prince can
make such designs fashionable, but he
! can never make them in taste.
What is the matter with them? Sew
eral things. In the first place, jeweli
shouldn't initiate natural objects. lt'i
a long story why, but l will try t.
abridge, Art that initiates is nevel
good art. limitations ask admiration
merely for the skill with which on,
thing has been made to look like an
other. This is an idea that has nothing
to do with beauty or with ornament
and 1t is artisans and not artists work
Besides, to use an object, as a violin, 70
another purpose than the one for whicI
it was designed is absurd and stupid
This sort of thing is a low kind O
humor, on par with puns.
True art is creative. 1t aims at pre-
ducing forms of pure beauty. Such
form asks admiration for itself, for il
form or color, without conjuring up fol
eign ideas. Art may make use of ma
ural forms, but only TO combine the
beauties into a new form, never imiti
tively.-Harper's Bazaar.

Notwithstanding the extraordinary
literary success which he enjoyed when
his works were the vogue, Eugene Sue
posed much more as man Of fashion
than a man of letters After his dinner
at the Cafe de Paris he would grayely
stand on the steps smoking his cigar and
listening to the conversation with an air
Of superiority without attempting to
take part in it. His mind was supposed
to be far away, devising schemes for the
social and moral improvement of his
fellow creatures. These philanthropic
musings did not prevent him from pay
ing great deal Of attention-toO much
perhaps-to his personal appearance, for
even in those days Of bcaus, bucks and
dandies, Of Counts dOrsay and others,
men could hot help thinking Eugene
Sue overdressed.
He rarely appeared without spurs TO
his boots, and he would no more have
done without a new pair Of white kid

Fraser, did not mind having their gloves
