TWILIGHT BRIDGE.

know little fairy bridge that spans a tiny
stream,
And there the sky is ever clear, for life is like
dream.
AS the siiv'ry stream goes ripping, running
onward to the sea,
While tie little birds are singing in an ecstacy
of glee.
The path one side the tiny stream is bright
and busy Day,
And Night. forest dark and drear, lies Just
across the way.
But the fairy brid ye called Twilight, clasping
hands between the two.

While in the ripping stream beneath throw

wearing the Army can.

Old United States army regulations
say that the soldiers cap should be
worn iauntily, with a little slant over
the right eye. The origin Of that
custom may have been in the attempt
to shade the eye while aiming, but it
is no longer observed. and, indeed,
most officers would reprovc soldier
who tipped his cap or helmet con
spicuously on one side. The Ameri-
can soldier offers a marked contrast
in that respect to the English soldier
or the Canadian militiaman, for they
wear little pork pie" hats that are
tipped so far on one side that they
would fall off at the slightest motion
were it not for a strap beneath the
chin.

RressmaIxers DO Not Like to Under
take Misses Gowns.
1T Is very strange" said mother
to us the other day, "but you can hard
ly get q dressmaker nowadays who
cares to make dresses for growing
girls. They may do excellently for
adults or children, and when 1t comes
to the girl of thirteen or fourteen they
either absolutely refuse to do anything
or make Il botch of what they under
take"
Now this is really a revelation to us,
and valuable hint as we'll to the hosts
of women who want some out-of-the-
way employment to make the dollars
come into the till. A growing girl,
of course, is undevelOped and immature,
says the Cincinnati Enquirer yet the
styles of her gowns are necessarily so
simple that it seems to us a modiste
must be very fussy and particular to
refuse to make the graceful hat-length
costumes of our young girls.
If there is such dearth for dress
makers for misses is that not grand
hint for an opening in that very line!
Be a girls dreSSmaker and reap the
reward of the mothers and daughters
gratitude as we'll as the more substan-
tial return in dollars and cents that are
sure to accrue. 1t is just these sorts
of out-of- the-way gleanings that so Oft

NOT A LIVING IN 1T.

Walter nesnnt Says That Writers
Should Not Depend ON Literature.
There is not a great deal of money to
be made in literature, and the man or
woman who goes into that profession
simply with an eye to money-getting
would better get out of it. The profess
sion of literature is a good deal like
virtue-it is its own reward, and there
are those who are satisfied that should
be the case, says the Critic. People
that like to write. like to so we'll that
they would rather make poor living
with their pens than handsome living
in commercial pursuits.
Walter BeSant'S advice to young men
is: DO not attempt to live by htera-
ture. Earn a livelihood some other
way. At all COSt-at any cOSt-be indie
pendent Of your literary work There
is hardly any work which does not al
low n man time for as much literary
work and study IT'S is good Tor NM
Look at the men who have been jour
naliSts, civil servants, medical men,
lawyerS-anything. Be independent.
TO emphasize his advice, Mr.. Besant
saws: There is one thing in my own
experience-if 1 may speak of myself
in connection with this subject--on
which l look back with great satisfac,
ton. 1t is that I was able to resist the
very great temptation to live by writ
ing till such time-abont eight wears
ago-when l thought myself justified in
so doing. l then. and not till then. re
signed a post which had for twenty
wears taken the cream of the day. and
given me- a certain independence"

"Popsy won't cry" observed Miss
Barnasconi, philosophically, land even
her powers of destruction will be taxed
to tear it. 1 should have it made UP
forthwith"
Barney never fiattered her friends
maternal vanity, and perhaps there was
no circumstance in the friendship be,
tween the two women more honorable
to both.
"Well, suppose 1 must have the
thing made up" said Bell, at length
yielding to reason. "But''-with a sud.
den fash of the eye and flush of the
cheek-the very first money get from

pretty frock-pale pink with white

And then Mrs. Jack laughed, and said
she was afraid she was rather foolish

The Name America.

The name of America for the newly
discovered continent was first proposed
in the little volume put forth at st.
Die, in the Vosges, in the year 1907, by
Waldzeemuller, better known by the
Helized form of his name, Hylacomy-
lus. Three or four editions of this
treatise were published at St Die be-
fore 1907, and a few years afterward
an edition without date was printed at
Lyons by Jean de la Place. All these
editions are of extreme rarity, and
probably that printed at Lyons is the
rarest of all, though the library of the
British museum possesses two copies
of it. It has never been suggested that
any maps were engraved to accompany
either of the editions, but it has always
been supposed that the earliest map
with the word America" marked on
the new found world was the ''Typus
OrbiS," engraved on wood for the
"EnarrationeS Joannis Camertis in C.
Julil SOlini Polyistora. In this map the
new world is represented as a long
island, on which is the inscription:

THUS insults inventa est per Columbian
Ianuensem eX mandate regis Castelle.
