THE CITIZEN
The Literary Club.

Mrs. Lion Chase began at her Thursday
Afternoon
When she had Professor Stargaze give q
lecture on the moon;
And we women applaaded till we made
the rafters ring,
And we said the dear Professor was ''too
sweet fer anything"
We agreed then in uniting for TO elevate
the tone
Of our afternoon receptions, which too
frivolous had grown:
And we then discussed the forming of
circle which we'd dub
The women's Thursday SemiSo cial Club.
We had gatherings very pleasant every
Thursday after four,
Where you'd meet distinguished folks and
charming people by the score;
No ordinary mortals, no clods of common
clay;
You must sing, or paint, or "elecute," or
else have writ play.
If you'd even made sonnet, or could col
or on tile.
And you wore your hair or whiskers in a
weird eccentric style,
Then with open arms we'd greet you on
our metsphoric knees,
For Mrs. Chase's salon is composed of such
as these.
There was Mrs. Hyphen- Shudder, who had
been upon the stage.
And Marie 0'Dewd Rantero, whose recit-
ing was the rage;
Nine. Pose, the Delsarte teacher, with her
gowns of draping care,
And Professor Unpronouncem, with his
Paderewski hair
Miss Amateurio Dimple, who could sing a
little song,
And Dedstratip, the palmist, and journal
ist gone wrong,
And Christian Science Shekel. who was
lately from the Hub;
Oh, we'd lots of cultured people at the
Literary Club.
The meetings were so lovely, with the
tapers burning low,
And mandolins a-tinkling, in the pink and
perfumed glow,
While we talked of themes hypnotic, and

With Miss Dimple picturesqlely coiled at

And Nine Pose performing in a Grecian
garment free,
And society reporters, looking swsggerest
OF all,
Lingering somewhere in the distance near
the punch bowl in the hall.
But at last it was suggested on a certain
awful day
For to introduce a dancer who would

And she came and saw and conqured, with
a kick of airy grace,
Which she deftly executed in a cloud OF
feecy lace;
| The men fought for introduetions when
she made her final bow,
And the members didn't like it. There
was no end of row,
And every man went smiling in her eyes,
as to his doom;
| The fact is she cut out every other woman
in the room.
Their wave of Indignation swept the
meeting to its core,
And Miss Amateurio said that she would
come no more;
While very cultured person-Miss Med

drew the line at legs.
Then the men grew rude and vulgar, snd

-In an Agricultural DEPARTMENT bulle-

tin occurs this advice.
Always remove the bark from felled
timber to aid seasoning, but not from the
standing tree.
Never allow the log to lie directly on
the moist soil.
If winter-felled, shape the timber TO size,
within two weeks after telling and leave It
placed on blocks-not upon the soil-in
the forest; or, if shaped at home. place IN
dry, airy, not windy position, away from
sun and rain.
If dried too rapidly, wood warPs and
splits, the cracks collect water, and the
timber is then easily attacked and destroy
ed by rot.
With large logs. checking may be pre-
vented by coating the ends with some fat
ty or oily substance, mixed with brick
dust.
