Colonel William Olin told the follow ing story at little dinner party at Park CTS the other day:
 Two little children who had seen q Memorial Day procession decided that they would decorate the grave of ia vorite pussy that had been buried under the pear tree in the back yard. So they marched toward the spot one behind the other. The first child. who carried q drum. was the band. and the second with tiny flag, was the Grand Army.
 Before they reached the grave d lot of old hens ran in front of the procession.
 ''Shoo, shoo!" cried the band.

THE BELLS BENEATH THE SEA.
The sea is calm. the wind is fair,

The sea is calm. the wind is fair, Nor ever a cloud doth lower--- The good ship speeds with the blessed bells She bears to Boltreaux tower. The pilot crossed his breast, and cried: ''Thank God! the harbor's near, For vesper bells at Tintagel
 Ring out their music clear. Aye, thank the Lord for our good speed Across the doubtful seal, "Fool!'' sneered the captain, thank myself; God holds no helm for thee.''
 The pilot crossed his breast, and cried, "God pardon thee once more,
 And grant that we may safely come Unto the Cornish shore.'' The captains oath was on his lips, Or ever the sun went down, And while the people thronged the cliffs Above the harbor town, A mighty wave swept OCT the sea,
 With dull and sullen roar; The good ship trembled all her length As she sank to rise no more. ~ Then o'er the whelming waters pealed GAS tolling funeral knells For those lost souls) the soft, sweet chimes Of the Forrabury bells. The moss creeps over Boltreaux church, Where rings no vesper lay; Still waits the tower it's blessed bells, And silent stands today. For low beneath the Cornish wave, |4s Where tangled wrecks lie deep, The Forrabury bells are hid
 And their sweet echoes keep. But ever 'gainst the pillows toss,
 And storm winds shriek in glee; Their muffled chimes the blessed bells Still ring beneath the sea.

Mistaking the Uniform.

The dreamy young man jumped on the rear platform of Broadway car last evening He was on his way to make a call and his mind had wandered off to the home of his Margaret. In- stinetively he showed his hand down into his pocket, pulled out coin and handed it toward brass buttoned coat that his dreaming eyes had made out in the darkness. He was aroused from his dreaming by gruff voice saying:
 "Pm not the conductor don't want your money"
 Pardon me" exclaimed the embar- rassed young dreamer. ''I really did not notice that you were fireman l just saw the uniform, you know. and took you for the conductor
 That's all right. answered the fire man. "No offense. We firemen have that happen to us every time we jump on car. If we go inside to take seat, some woman is sure to hand us a fare and ask us to let her off at some street or other, and if we stand outside, some absentminded man goes and sticks a coin in our hands. don't know but it would be a pretty good scheme if we just accepted the situation and the money and said nothing "-New York Times.

 Morning came. As the first glimmer of light penetrated the room he leaped from his bed-resolute, angry. feverish. l With a blow and salvo of oaths he opened the window. But the raven was no longer there. It had divined his intentions and had gone, taking refuge in path of the gar den.

 He seized gun, leaped down the stair. was in the garden.
 Nardo took aim, fired, the ball sped.
 The raven, in no wise frightened, hopping, peering, scolding, came up to him and stopped few steps away from the gun that was still pointed at him.
 The second charge exploded. I 'I have finally blown you to atoms, oh, accursed birdr' howled Nardo, plunging eagerly into the smoke of the powder.
 But the raven, from the branch of q tree where he had taken refuge, answered with croak, and, coming close to the | l-s1 l~s planted his claws in his eyes and pressed his face between his bleeding wings.

Hearing of Horses.

It is we'll known that horses can hear deep sounds which we cannot. For days previous to the earthquake in the Riv- iera the horses there showed every sy1np- tom of abject fear, which continued without any change of character till the fury of the convulsion broke forth. But not till a few seconds before the earth began to quake did human beings hear any sounds, while it is extremely proba- ble that the horses heard the subterra- mean noises for two or three days previ- ously.-Boston Globe.

People often ask of what use are old papers? Paper is a non-conductor of heat, and plants or other articles wrapped up in paper in such a manner as to pre- vent circulation of air, will resist the action of frost to an astonishing extent. Printed paper will keep off moths and in- sects as well as tar paper, and is very useful on that account to wrap up clothes. In the summer you can wrap vessel containing ice in an old newspaper and the contents will be found still frozen af- ter warm night. After this who can say that old newspapers are useless?

Last April she was taken down with measles, fol- lowed with 8 dreadful cough and turning into a fever. Doctors at home and at Detroit treated her, but in vain, she grew worse rapidly, until she was mere ''hand- ful of bones.'' Then she tried Dr. Kings New Discovery and after the use of two and half bottles was completely cured. they say Dr. Kings New Discovery is worth it's weight in gold, yet you may get trial bottle free at E.
