everybody knows, especially women. The
other day two fashionable ladies were go
ing along Woodward avenue, when they
met - very poorly dressed little woman,
whom one Of them seemed to know in an
eleemosynary way. She stopped the little
woman and engaged her in conversation
for three or four minutes, the other mean
time listening to her and noting her man
ners. Then they passed on.
"Who is she" asked the one who had
been observing

Mn cnrlrle W. Not a nore.

Carlyle took a friend, and a much younger
man, out walking with him, and in his
usual way indulged in a monologue, in
which, nevertheless, his companion was
much interested. Once or twice, however,
the friend ventured TO put in a word or
two Of objection in regard to something
said by Carlyle This annoyed Carlyle in
tensely, and when they reached home he
turned upon his companion and addressed
TO him the following warning; young
man, I'd have ye to know that ye've the
capacity for being the greatest bore in Eu-
rope" The poor man had hardly spoken a
dozen words, but since these had been crit
ical they had made him seem to Carlyle a
potential bore Of colossal proportions.
Many men in this way get unjustly called
bores. They venture TO doubt some state
ment made in conversation and are at once
branded with the most terrifying OK names
These unfortunate persons are in truth not
bores at all, but merely the innocent de-
tectors of the latent capacity of boring in
others. Carlyle showed by his speech what
was indeed the fact, that he, not his friend,
possessed the potentiality Of boring. 1t is
true that his great imagination generally
saved him, but he often went perilously
near the line. Had he not been the man of
genius he was he would assuredly have
been the greatest bore in Europe.-London

AN EAST WIND.

A shrike is mourning on the ash;
The clouds above are blue as stones;
The east wind lays its searching lash
On the worlds old bones.
The sand is spinning of the ridge;
The elm tree gives a doleful shout;
Each shaft Of stubble sings like a midge;
Tho leaves are hustled about.
Nothing IS IN tune today
Nothing has spirit or wings;
The wind is In no mood FOR play,
And says sarcastic things.
The sparrows are nursing their hardihood,
In the leeward cave OF barn,
Ard one old pirate is warming his blood
BY telling the others yarn.
And the shrike makeson IN a chilly flight,
AS the bitter east wind filings
A snowbird flock in a flash Of light,
Shaking its silver wings.

The Inv ofFnllinr Bodies.

All falling bodies, whether they be crys-
tai rain drops or meteorites, fall with what
philosophers term "a uniform accelerated
notion" in other words, if a body be NOV

of one second from the beginning Of its
fall, it will be moving with twice that We

gaining in speed at au inform rate through

Dy The Light of His own Pistol.

The question whether the person who
fires a gun or pistol at another during a
dark night can be identified by means of
the light produced in the discharge has
long interested medico-legal minds. The
question was first referred to the class Of
physical science in France, and they an
swered it in the negative. a case tending
to show that their decision was erroneous
was subsequently reported by Fodere. A
woman positively swore that she saw the
face Of a person who fired at another dur
ing the night surrounded by a kind of
glory, and that she was thereby enabled to
identify the prisoner. This statement was
confirmed by the deposition Of thewounded
man.-Toronto Mail

The cAlL0AooD OF THE HEART

Oh. the rosy days Of childhood
How ilis8fully they sped
When not O. charm had vanished
and not "a wonder lcdl
The ycnr was fnll of promise then;
The tongue was full of praise,
But | think the cup a. swcctcr now
Than in the childish days.
Oh. the laughing world Of childhood,
or Ignorance and easel
Tho lightost touch could quicken.
And the least pleasure please;
Yet the upward paths are dearer,
With an the thorns they bear.
Than a garden of a hundred flowers
When Ignorance Is therel
Oh. the beating heart Of childhood
That little heart of snow
That doubt has never entered
Nor sorrow las brought low
Trust me, not an the rapture
It's eager life can span
Can shadow forth the perfect love
That warns the breast of man.
