Poets, Wlts and Statesnea Counted
Among the Number.
IT We were to look carefully into
the history Of tho lives of men Of 70.
nius. We should end many names to
add to the list Of those who committed
suicide, says the Popular Science
Monthly.
Hayden, The celebrated historical
painter and writer, overcome By debt,
disappointment and ingratitude, laid
down tho brush with which be was at
work upon his last grand effort, "Al.
fred and tho Trial BY jury" wrote
with . steady hand, "Stretch me no
longer upon this rough world, ;" aud
then With pistol shot put an end to
bis unhappy existence.
Richard Payne Knight, the poet,
Greek scholar and antiauary, was .
victim to uelanohol,s. and finally de.
stroyed himself with poison.
Burton, the vivacious author OF
"The Anatomy of Melancholy" who
bad the reputation Of being able to
raise laughter in any company, how.
ever "mute and mopish, " was in reality
oonstitutionally depressed, ard i. is
believed that he ended his life in a fit
Of melancholy.
Kleist, able poet and dramatiss,
brooded over suicide, attempted it
once UNNECESSARILY, and finally, by
agreement with Henrietta Vogel, who
believed herself affected with an in.
durable disease. repaired to q small
inn near Potsdam. where they then
ended their lives together.
Dessman, the humorous writer, like
Burton, put an end to himself in q fit
Of melancholy.

liant genius, by whose efforts the
criminal laws of England were remod.

of the leopard. They vary greatly in size
and also in color, but all except the black
leopard are beautifully marked. Unlike
the lions and the tigers, leopards are expert
climbers.
When pursued, the leopard takes refuge
if possible in tree, and if hard pressed
springs down upon its assailants with much
ferocity. 1t also turks among the branches
of trees, watching for its prey, which is
generally an unwary deer or antelope. but
it is equally ready to feed on pigs or poul
try found near outlying farms There is no
prettier sight than to see the gambols of
these graceful creatures in the geological
gardens in London, where every convenience
for climbing and otherwise amusing them
selves is afforded to them. The illustration
here given shows leopards at play in the
gardens referred to, being reproduced from
a photograph taken on the spot.

Notice.


Notice is hereby given that the follow

meeting Of the city council Of the city Of
Aberdeen, held on May "a, 1893.

And a Kicker Went Forth tn Kick.

Few men but have a desire to kick at
times. But we want to register orc kick
and then subside. The opportunity to
display the wealth of the forests of
Washington at the Worlds Fair has
been lost 1t is too late in the day now
for the commissioners to write letters,
as is being done, and ask our lumber
men to send samples of lumber. 1t is
too late to get sections of trees, in fact it
is too late to do anything but stand
around the miniature farm now on exhib-
it in the Washington building and try
to imagine that it teaches or illustrates
anything above the idea of ten year old
boy. 1t is worse than Horace Greeley's
book on "What l Know About Farm
ing" in fact nothing could be as weak
as it is. Visitors laugh at it and sensible
men advise throwing it into the back
yard before any more see it. The forest
exhibit is failure, the agricultural ex-
hibit is failure, the mineral exhibit is
a failure; but it has one redeeming feat
ture, no one but an expert can detect the
fact that not ten per cent. of the ores
shipped to Chicago from Washington
are of any value. They were condemn
ed before they were sent. The exhibit
of our timbers was made failure as far
as possible by painting them to save fin
ishing them in oil to show the grain of
the wood. We are thankful they did not
let some company, that would do it for
give the handsomely carved
seal coat of asphalt. The idea of the
commission seems to have been to get
any thing so it cost Nottingham is ex-
cept their own services. If the building
could be locked up and notice stuck on
the doors that Washington exhibits could
only be found in Washington, we think
that the good impression made by the
exterior of the building and the big logs
donated by our lumbermen would not be
obliterated soon. There-we feel better.

quite a sensation WALKING ON THE THAMES
by travelling on the Thames from Chelsea
to London bridge. The water walkers at-
tracted the lions share Of attention. The
shoes used were 8 feet long and resembled
miniature canoes. Some of them were made
of india rubber and others of antelope hair
and canvas. Each shoe was inflated, and
the walkers seemed to experience very little
difficulty in maintaining their equilibrium
and making good progress along the bosom
of the Thames. Each odd pedestrian was
dressed in sailor costume and carried a
small balancing pole. The strange sight
attracted an immense throng to the banks
of the river.

Instead, l am rooted here"
"A moth, my life is a sweet content,
But no worthy life for thee"
"Change!' cried the daisy. "Take my place.

And, lol the daisy took silver wings,
And forth from the meadow flew;
The little white moth became flower,
A daisy cup dash'd with dew.
The wide earth blessed the changeling flower,
The heavens smil'd down above;
A boundless life was the daisy's life,
Her mission a lowly love.
A little white moth, with broken wings,
Came home when nights were drear,
To breathe her last on the daisy's breast.
She had missed her rightful sphere.

HOW to Run Like an Indian.

Boys, do you want to run long and well,
like an Indianp If so, here are some direc-
lions given in Farm Journal that will assist
you: Breathe in the lower part of your
lungs, down, down, until you seem to
breathe below the stomach in the abdomen.
Practice at first by lying fiat on your back.
Don't breathe so too much when beginning
and increase gradually. Breathing 80, you
will be long time getting out OF brcatli
when on your feet-perhaps will not be-
come exhausted at all. When you start,
don't run fast for a little time, and ON run
ming rapidly for squirt" slow up when
you feel little tired, but don't break into
a walk Practice will enable you to breathe
and run better and better.
