A red iron letter box over the way,
And once in awhile, when I've nothing to DO
/ number its callers-and here are a few:
The first is a maiden with cheeks all ablush,

That the half hundred PAGES she's come have

Ere she drops her first love letter into the
box.
A young husband next, with his face lit with
joy,
Which tells quite plainly that lit is boy"

And next, a maidservant with apron and cap
who looks as though sadly in need of nap;

Bent, haggard. untidy-who now totters near,
His features fast set in n cynical sneer?
A note to his lawyer-the sneaking old wise

price"
And last comes the postman, who whisks out
his key,
Unfastens the paddock, and nodding to me
With n jerk that explains that there's no time

Walks off with the letters all safe in his bag.

That bubbling, breezy blatherskite, the bolster

So drunk is he with wine of joy, so music mad
with mirth,
His tipsy carols of content rejuvenate the
earth.
We feel the orient JOY OF life with which our

'Tis summer in the earth and air, and in the

From what deep fount of flowing joy does this
mad minstrel drink,
This bubbling, breezy blatherskite, this bolster

From rounded apple blossom cups where wild
bees browse and bloom;
From tiger lily beakers and from ohalices of

FROM strawberry goblets filed with dew, the
incense of the night,
Caught from the sky's inverted urn embossed
with starry light;
Forth from his blossom bed he leans, and,
laughingly and strong,
All up and down the ringing earth he weaves
his web of song,
And breaches boldly to the sad the folly of de-
spair,
And tells to whom 1t may concern that all the
world is fair.
And to my heart his wisdom finds surer well

Than some that has been sanctioned by the

Not Without Cnre.

NOT without Care.
You may build you an elegant mansion
And fence it around with gold,
Set 1t all with diamonds and rubies;
You may keep out the wind and the cold,
You may Danish from it all intruders,
Have music and levity there;
You may shut out discord and envy,
But you cannot shut out care.
You may build n lowly cottage,
You may paint it all in white,
Grow vines and shade trees about it,
Let in only sunshine and light;
You may keep out the envy and malice
That wrinkle the faces we wear;
You may keep love inside and contentment
But you cannot keep out care.
You may sing with the voice of an angel,
You may dance with fairy's feet,
You may laugh till your laughter makes
music
For every one that you meet;
You may dance till your feet seem twin
king,
Till the roses fade in your hair,
You may dance till the world dies of envy,
But you cannot drive away care.
You may smile in the faces of women
Who envy your very life,
AS you hide from their eyes all the burdens,
The WEAKNESS, heartaches and strife;
You may live so the poor will adore you,
Live life that the world calls fair;
You may let love be conquered by duty,
But you cannot live without care.

Something for Old Maids.


Undoubtedly marriage is the natural
and appropriate condition of woman.
She wants and needs husband to love,
and children to love, and home to be
attached to, as a female bird requires a
nest full of eggs or of young, and a
proud and faithful mate on contig-
uous branch of tree to render her COM
pletely happy.
Nor can it be denied that many old
maids are sour-sour is their disposition,
as pickles fresh from the strongest vim
egar.
Probably it is because they have SC
little to do-rather, we should say,
owing to the want of sufficient duties on
which to expend all their vigor and
force. They do seem, and it may as
well be admitted, to take to scandal
somewhat as ducks take to water, yet
we look upon that as minor point in
considering their character and utility.
We do doubt very much whether the
world would be as well off if there were
not old maids in it. In their bosoms
dwell some of the most benevolent hearts
in the world.
Was not Florence Nightingale an old
maid? What married woman ever did
as much. not only for the good of the
soldiers of England, but for the i'm
provement of the world, as she?
And yet, if she had had a stalwart
husband, a luxurious home and house
full of babies, who would ever have
heard of her outside of the walls of her
own home, or, at most, the limits Of her
own visiting circle?-New York Ledger

Water an Aid to Hard Woods.

With a cry of agony he dashed into
the crushed and burning wreck, and
just as the flames Were beginning to
creep upon her he jumped from the hun
cry flames with his fainting but happy
wife in his arms. Again and again he
blessed the happy blow on his head
which had cleared his vision and made
him see how near he came to losing a
good, true and desirable wife.

matron, kind mother and a good wife

now worth $250,000 in his own indi-
vidual right.

from the hinges of her violin case. her
remains were never found. hated to

was used, or a portion of it at least, to
relieve her fathers Indebtedness. and
with the balance was founded conserv-
atory Of music in Boston.
DR.. Watson was pinned to the wreck
by the ear and slowly scalded to death.
Before he died he said he was sorry for
what he had done, but yet with his last
breath he tried to bite preacher who
was praying for him. He was low
creature. He was disagreeable per-
son, and his death utterly failed to cast
gloom over the community.
Mr.. Crawford and his bride returned
to Chicago and remained there quite
awhile
They were very very happy indeed.
Mrs. DR.. Watson went on the stage
and did well. She receives good wages,
and also got $4,000 insurance on her
husband, whose life she had insured the
year before. With this money she
bought two beautiful dresses, which she
now wears on the stage and which make
a great hit.
Mr. and Mrs. Henshall are real happy
all the time. Henry is good provider
and Lena can construct cake which
will make ones hair curl. They have
good deal of company come to see them,
and almost without exception each one
says on going away, "We have had a
real good time"

When DR.. Watson returned after send
ing his lying telegram to Edna he found
the house empty and the door locked,
the shutters drawn and everything de-
serted. The reader will ask how he
knew that every one was gone when the
door was locked and he could not get in,
but we must remember that he was in
the hypnotism business, and could do
things that other people might consider
difficult. Many a time as boy he had

which brought Mr.. Crawford west in
search of his child.
On that fatal night Edna placed her
violin in her berth, where it could not
get overheated by the steam pipes, and
then, letting down her angelic hair till
it fell about her slight figure like halo
of molasses candy, she looked so sweet
that the porter thoughtlessly swallowed
a pillow which he was holding in his
teeth as he watched her skin up the
steep ladder and plunge into her couch
with glad cry.
She soon stuck her head down into
Mrs. Henshall's berth, however, and said
tenderly:
"My dear friend, do not know why.

GEL MS IN VERSE.


To one who learns, there comes no greater
strength
Than that which comes through failure This
know
That while success forever proves our loss,
Failure has pointed with unerring hand
To some still grander failure. Thus my soul
Has had no chance to fold its weary wings
And rest in apathetic victory
And still the purpose of an earnest mind
Does reach fruition every day'and hour.
Rather, it makes fruition as it goes.
1t fails, but counts its failures as success,
And in world on fire, on fire itself,
Still feels the breathing of IA deep content.

Ephraim to call up sleepy but clerical
looking man in upper five, also in paja-
mas, who quietly slid down into the
drawing loom and in the presence of the
sleeping car conductor and porter made
the two man and wife,
And what of Henry Henshall, the
hero and artistic ass of this story?
Leaving his art to shirk for itself, and
forgetting that he had promised on that
very day to paint two large barns for a
party in Oakland, he fought madly for a
place on the train in order to follow an
unknown faxen haired fiddler, who
did not care cent for him or his art.
Henry Henshall was not bad man, but
he needed some great calamity or severe
conclusion to jolt little sense into him.
That was all. Life had been too smooth
with him. He had painted several
portraits of Beatrice Cenci, which had
been accepted by the family and paid
for, yet after all he needed something
that would almost kill him, but not
quite. This would, the doctor thought,
knock the talents out of him, and give
him an ambition to do as he agreed and
pay his debts.
Such an episode was in store for him
For, by a strange fatality, this train he
rode upon few nights later (although

Henry Henshall was struck on the head
by fresh train fig, and for time lay
unconscious, but the smell of his burning
trousers aroused him, and he got up and
went out of the car.
Strangest of all, the blow had cleared
his intellect and knocked the laudable
pus out of his mind, as it were, and
Lena was the first word on his lips.

IS possible.

Briefly but truthfully and tearfully
Miss Brown made clean breast of her
sorrowful slavery to DIR. Watson, the
hypnotist, and on her knees she prom
ised the old man that never again would
she give him an opportunity to WELD his
ghoulish and disagreeable influence over
her.
AS the fair head of the beautiful girl
rested on his knee, and with trembling
fingers he screwed up her Psyche knot
little tighter, so that it could not get
muddy as the spirited roadster sped
along the track, he thought he had never
saw SO fair being, taken all around, as
she was. Mr.. Crawford always used the
choicest English in his conversation, but
occasionally his thoughts We're ungram-
matical.
81 also have confession to make, dear
one," he said "Prepare for piece of

squirting up my sleeve, hacked the dying
man to pieces, put him in a shawl strap
and carried him away to sewer trap
and concealed his dishevelled remains so
that the police could not get on to my
spoor?
"And yet for months this terrible Sc
cret has been preying upon my soul.
Yesterday while DIR. Watson was up

did not kill Cronin, and so, picking up a
paper, read that another man did it.

hypnotize Mr.. Crawford, but the old man
had shrewdly had himself vaccinated,
and so he was safe.
There was nothing for the doctor to do
but to follow the procession, for Craw-
ford had evidently heard that his
daughter was in California, and had re-
solved to go to her.
For some time the doctor argued with
the old man, but without avail. He then
tried to hypnotize the ticket office into
giving him lower berth, but the agent
had been exposed when he was young,
and so wasn't afraid of getting it now.
Therefore Dr. Watson had to jump
hurriedly on the rear platform as the
train pulled out and sleep in the smoking
car with his front teeth resting heavily
on his knees all the hvelong night.
In the drawing room of a pleasant and
airy sleeping car supplied with electric
bells and thermometer was buffet,
the sandwiches in which smelled like
lower eight, while lower eight got even
by smelling like a corned beef sandwich,
and here sat Mr.. Crawford and Miss
Brown. Below is given a picture of Miss
Brown. Her name was Celia Brown, but
her friends called her Cell and Brown
with an air of badinage which brought
rosy flush and sweet bright smiles to her
fair face.
The artist has happily caught this
smile with his little catch-as-catch-ca
camera.
The picture was originally a full length
figure, but owing to the pressure on our
advertising space and note just re-
ceived from the chief of police we have
decided to condense the portrait as much
IS possible.
