ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
So we must part forever: and although
| long have beat my wings and cried to go,
Free from your narrow limiting control,
Forth into space, the true home of the soul.
Yet now, yet now that hour is drawing near,
pause reuctaat, finding you so dear,
All joys await me in the relam of God
Must you, my comrade, molder in the sod?
I was your captive, yet you were my slave;
Your prisoner, yet obedience you gave
To all my earnest wishes and commands,
Now to the worms leave those willing hands
That toiled for me or held the books ! read,
Those feet that trod where'er / wished to tread
Those arms that clasped my dear ones, and the
breast
On which one loved and loving heart found rest
Those lips through which my prayers to God have
Those eyes that were the windows to my prison.
From these, all these, Deaths Angel bids me
sever;
Dear Comrade Body, fare thee well forever.
go to my inheritance and 60
With joy that only the freed soul can know;
Yet in my spirit wanderings trust
L may sometimes pause near your sacred dust.
Cure your anger by silence.-Arab
Proverb.
The man who buries his talent buries
himself.

doeth it not, to him it is sim"
Whatever tends to make men good
Christians also makes them good citizens
He who can plant courage in a human
soul is tie best physician.

The worst thing about some business
mems failures is the failure of conscience.
There are some people who think the
music never amounts to much except when
they play first fiddle.
Something happens every day to serve

The test of the wire gum
system which recently took place at
Bird>b oro, Pa, definitely lifts this system
out of the realm of periment-at least
so far as moderate calibres are concerned
1t shows that the 5 inch gun, made of
segmental tubes, wire wosnd, cannot be
exploded by any amount OF powder that
can be got into its chamber. When
Uncle Sam can sit On the breech of an
American invented ana American made
gun and defy the world to produce it's
equal this country will have won back a
good deal of lis former naval prestige. 1t
looks as though the wire wound guu will
soon give Uncle Sam this opportunity.

Such Are the Citizens of the Great North
western Cities.

western Cities
The keynote and countersign of life in
the cities Of tie northwest is the word
hustle. We have caught it in the east,
but we use it humorously, just as we once
used the southern word ''skedaddle," but
out west the word hustle is not only a seri-
Gus term, it is the most serious in the Ian
guage. One day, as | sat in the lobby of
one Of the great hotels in the older part of
the twin cities, [ heard two old friends
greeting one another with ardent express
sions of friendship and delight. They
had not met for long while, and each
asked about the Others Lizzie and Fannie
and their respective little ones. All of a
sudden heard one say:
"Well, see you tonight, l suppose.
have got to go.
Where have you got to go TOP" the
other inquired, plainly disappointed that
the pleasant interview was not to be pro-
longed
"Where?" tie other echoed "Why, to
hustle, of course | have lost ten minutes
standing here taking to you. I'm going
out to hustle"
The word always jars upon the ear of
an eastern man when it is seriously
spoken, but it is preferable TO that other
expression once dominant in the west, but
now all but abandoned. That was the
word rustic" The noun a ''rustler"

she rows, she fishes, she shoots. insomuch
that all men, and ii may be that some

things that are her brothers. She is

to the strap In the street car when her
mother had seat in the omnibus if every
man rode outside In the rain. She gets
lostled and pushed about in the crowd,
when some bare headed man, bowling low
used to make way for her grand mother.
With weary patience she stands in line at
the t,cket-office; woe is she if she presume
on the privilege of sex to step in ahead of

Much she hath gained by freedom; some.
what, also, hath she lost. She cannot eat
her cake and keep it, Still, if she didn't
eat 1t, 1t would become tearfuIly stale, or
somebody else would get it. And cake is
only good to eat, anyhow. Scarcely would
she exchange her independence for defer

In form than fact. Men are more unself-

their fathers were; but this hurrying age
of ,gallop and gulp has trampled upon the
deliberate grace and studied elegance of
OF lazler day, when men bowed lower
and did less; when men abandoned loaf

lace at their wrists and rapiers at their
sides; they ceased to walk in blank verse,
and conversed in plain prose; they cut of
their long ringlets, and the curling tongs
were dethroned by the clippers.

A ROMANTIC LOVE STORY.
"A Congressman Waited For the Bah
In

"A aSss"Nh w alteu FOr the BABY
to Grow UP.
Congressman Oates of Alabama, with
his htty'hve years and only one arm, has a
romantic story that surrounds the loss of
the other arm. During the war he served
IN the Confederate army, and it was before
Richmond that he received the wounds
that necessltated the amputation Of his
right arm. At this time it was that Oates
WAS obliged to lie off on sick leave while
he recovered from bis injuries. He was
received into the house of a southern fam
lid and was nursed by the eldest daught-
er.
When he pulled through, Oates felt that
his life had not onl y been saved by her,
but that bis future happiness was in her
hands. The young officer told his story,
but this young nurse did not favor his
sult-whether because she thought it was
pressed simply from gratitude, or whether
she did not return his affections, is not
told.
Oates was too weak to return to his
command, and between fretting over his
rejected suit and at the delay in his re-
turn TO the front, was in a most unhappy
mood. One day when more respondent
than ever, the mother looked up and said
laughingly:
Never mind, captain, you just wait
for so and SO, polr ting to the baby in
the cradle she WAS rocking. You can
have her by and by" The captain
laughed.
The baby began to grow to girlhood,
and Oates was interested in all she did .
When she became of manageable age he
reminded the mother of her old promise,
made over the baby's cradle. There was
no opposition to the match, and the couple
are unusually happy. This accounts for
the difference in age, at which many
people have wondered. Mrs. Oates is a
pretty womaa, with southern grace and
band. w ashington Post.

New YORK March The Sun s
Washington special says: Secretary
Rusk is thinking seriously of establish
ing matrimonial bureua in connection
with the agricultural department. The idea
was suggested by letter he recently re-
ceived from man out west, VIII expe-
rimented with some of the cucumber
seed sent to him by the department at
the instance of his representative in
congress. The farmer planted the Gu
cumber seed and his wife afterward
died from eating some of the cucumbers.
The farmer in his letter to Secretary Rusk
said
Your blamed cucumbers robbed me of
my wife, so instead of sending me cucum-
Der seed this spring send me another wife.
| hear there are number of likely women
In your department.
In reply, Secretary Rusk said he haa no
appropriation from which he could draw
money to send wife to the widower, but
suggested that the latter come to Wash
ington and pick out one for himself The
secretary informed his correspondent that
he has In his department some beautiful
maldens, many sprightly widows and
several well-seasoned old maids"

The "visible" supply of wheat in
the United States is now 75,OOO,00U
bushels, which is 100000 larger
than ever before 1t is expected that
this will be increased few million
before it reaches its highest amount.
The outlook for good prices on this
crop is very discouraging, and the
farmers must seriously consider
reducing their wheat acreage. Other
crops are bringing good prices this
year, but there is too much wheat in
the world to allow a good market in
any country.
