A1@ EzS;e,
TO A SAD CoNsoLER.

Yes, yes, know what you would say, and yet
Life Is 80 sweet! Life Is so verylsweetl
Leaves dancing in the sun make quick the
beat
OF saddest heart, and love must still forget
Life's toll and care its fever and its fret.
How blue the sky shines through the summer
heat,
How merrily the blood dehes the sleet,
One GOLDEN hour illumines gray year. Let
Those talk of tears who never knew relief,
For me the boarded honey of the past
Outliv, this wintry inerva of pain.
Come loneliness or lovelesseess or grief!
The memory of days too sweet to last
Shall make my heart run DER with JOY again.
-Ethelwyn Wetherald

Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is the grandest

The simplicity of its grandeur is the strong

Nature provides cure for every disease of

snarrous Fired The BUILDING,

A pair of English sparrows who built
their untidy nest in cornice of the
Girls high school were the indirect
causes of some excitement and of fire,
about which the bright faced pupils will
outchatter the sparrows for days to
come. The damage was small, but that
was not because of the good intentions
of the feathered interlopers. For aught
any one knows, they may have wished
to burn down the whole building, the
housekeeping season being over with
them and they little better than feath-
cred Migrants.
How they managed to fire the build
ing is not very clear. Professor Baythol-
omew thinks they carried match in the
nest just as they pick up all sorts of 9th
er trifes; that it got very dry and was
ignited in some mysterious way. The
woodwork of the cornice was easily set
in flames, but it never got much of a
start. The fire was discovered by Miss
Olive Catlin, one of the teachers. She
informed Professor Bartholomew. who
at once ran pstairs and threw a bucket
of water ON the blaze.-Louisville Cou-
rier-Journal.

Years ago. on q boat on the North
river, the pilot gave very sharp ring 10
the bell for the boat to slow up. The
engineer attended to the machinery, and
then he came up with some alarm on
deck to see what was the matter. He saw
&c was a moonlight night and there We're
no obstacles il the way. He went to the
pilot and said; "Why did you ring the
bell in that way? Why do you want to
stop? There's nothing the matter" And
the pilot said to him, There is mist
gathering on the river; don't you see
that? and there is night gathering darker
and darker, and can't see the way"
Then the engineer, looking around and
seeing it was bright moonlight, looked
into the face of the pilot and saw that
he was dying, and then that he was
dead. God grant that when our last
moment comes we may be found at cur
post doing our whole duty. Aud when
the mists of the river of death gather On

They Tackle the Problem.

II the smaller cities of the country be.
gin by showing how municipal govern
ment can be run economically and at
the same time every public servant be
made to earn his money, with the result
of clean, well lighted streets and moral
and aesthetic atmosphere for the young
people TO grow to maturity in, then the
big cities will follow suit, and having
learned from the small cities that the
reforms named can be comprised they
will inaugurate them also.
A western town of 1000 inhabitants
has set about the task of building per-
feet city government. An association
, of leading citizens has been formed. 1t
includes in its membership men of all
political parties end number of minis.
tiers. The society defined its object to
be to foster and encourage a good
moral tone, uphold correct business
principles, promote hygiene and also in
terest itself in proper methods of educa-
tion."
The members of the association start
out with the idea that the best way to
get good city government is to keep an
eye on the Officials already in Office,
calling them strictly to account if they
step out of the clear track. and encour-
aging and backing them when they seem
to be trying to execute the laws. Anoth-
er object is to make good people of all
classes arouse themselves and take an
interest III their own city government.

A Studio Trick.

In the corner of an artists studio in
this city is an ingenious arrangement of
screens, upon one of which, over an aper-
ture about the size of face, is an in.
scription, "Likenessea taken instanta-
neously." The innocent visitor peeks
through the hole and is astonished to be-
hold an exact likeness of himself as a
humpbacked jailer in a scarlet coat,
opening prison door. The secret of
this effect is simple. The jailer is life
size painting strongly rendered. The
place for the face is cut out and mir
FOR inserted, rejecting the features of
the spectator. The conception of this
amusing fantasy is not entirely original.
It was imported from the studio of
Wiertz, the Belgian Observation-Disclosures
Record.
