And We eat by light o. candle
Till the coming daylight pales:
In the SAVIOR OF the kitchen
How the appetite awakes'
How we gorge the toothsome morsels-
Light and wholesome buekwheat cakes
Coming on the table steaming,
Stacked up high upon the dish,
Sight to make IA sad heart gladden..
What more could n mortal wish:
Forks attack in goodly number,
Everybody likes them hot:
Cook has counted we'll the noses,
Not single ones forgot.
Take a cake upon your platter.

Then bit of golden butter
Epicure, il is Il dream
Put a cake upon the butter :
Let the butter melt between.

'Twere dish for gods, wecn
Talk about your land OF Canaan.
This is good enough for me:
Give me buckwheat cakes for breakfast,
And I'll quite contented be.

Land of milk where honey flows;
Let me live and die in clover,
In this land where buckwheat grows!

A COQUETTE IN DEATH.
The Skin of Her Shoulders Bequeathed
to FIamma rion.

Inc SKIN OF Her Shoulders Beuueathed
to FIammarion.
Camille Flammarion, the well-known
astronomer, was some years ago a
guest at the country seat of a certain
! count and countess. The countess is
of foreign origin and her husbands
seat is in the department of the Jura.
She was dying with consumption and
became deeply impressed with Flam-
marion's accounts of his scientific
/ flights to sidereal regions. She became
imbued with his theory of the plurality
of the inha bitable worlds. This en-
abled her to await the inevita BILE end
of her disease with calm resignation.
perhaps with the hope that death
might only prove translation to Mars
or some other planet of the celestial
world.
In due time Flammarion's visit came
to an end. He returned to his observa-
tory and forgot in the absorption of his
astronomical studies all about his
hostess at the chateau among the
mountains of Jura. Some time ago
package arrived at the observatory. ac-
companied by a letter in a black-edged
envelope. The packet and letter were
received by Nine. Flammarion, who, on
examing the contents, found that the
package contained a large piece of
white skin. very thick and cold to the
touch. The letter, which was in French,
read as follows:
DEAR MAsTBR:-I am fulfilling the last wish
of one who bore a strange love for you. She
made to aaDd the day after
her death the skin of her beautiful shoulders.
which you admired much. she sad on the
evening OF your departure II was her desire
that you should have bound in this skin the

This letter was signed by we'll

How a Banana Rind Brought Her

How it rained, that bleak winter
night. How mercilessly the torrents
came down. rebounding in sheets of
spray from the pavements and swell
ing the cutters into miniature rivers.
windows flared dimly and the yellow
stars of the street lamps shone like
beacon lights far out at sea. There
were not r1any pedestrians on Broad
way that night. save those compelled
by grim necessity to face the storm;
and Guy Moreau, striding down the
western side, had the right of way all
to himself

himself. My hat is ruined alrea lady,
and my coat is fit for nothing but the
outside pegs of secondhand clothing

what's the matter?"
He stopped short at the sound of a
slight scream, close to him. A shah
billy dressed young girl carrying load
of oil-cloth-shielded bandboxes had
slipped on piece of banana rind,
almost at his feet.
Guy Moreau made no pretensions to
the rank of Chevalier Bayard. but he
had kindly human heart within his
bosom. and stepped instantly forward
to help the young girl up.
Not hurt, are you?' he asked
kindly.
The girl looked at him with big eyes
full of pain and terror.

ing eagerly around. They're lot wet

asked.

Guy.) Let me call hack he added,
aloud.

moment.

asked.
