has 10000. Many Of the poor, stranded
fellows in Chicago are those left over
from the Worlds fair. If som of them
had we'd IA part of the wages paid to
them while the exposition was in prog
ress, they would at least nov have
enough r. take them out of town.

NAPOLEAN'S VAR DOG.
A Story which the Boys VIII Find Interest


Astory which the Boys VIII Find Interest
ing.
The story Of dog of France. is told in
the Outlook-a dog who became one Of
the most loved OF all the followers Of
Napoleon He was a shaggy dog, whom
the soldiers called Mustache, and who,
casting his lot with that Of the army
had followed II into Italy. Scarcely had
the army reached Alexandria when Mus
tache warned his comrades, Of night at
tack. his timely waking saving. perhaps,
the army. In return the dogs name was
inscribed on the roll book Of his company.
From that day he was entitled 10 draw
rations-a grenadier's portion daily. More
over, the regiments barber was ordered
10 comb Mustache at least once week.
1T was not n sinecure for the barber, FOR not
a member Of the regiment was greater
fighter than the dog. once he was wound
ed in the shoulder by a bayonet thrust,
and once, in the battle Of Marengo, he
lost an ear But every wound was dress
ed by the company's surgeon, and every
new cannonadng put Mustache on his
feet. Some years elapse, and then the
dog reappears at AusterlitZ. He was in
the midst Of the fight. The company was
hard pressed, and the standard-bearer
was left alone-with Mustache-among
the dead ana dying. Inc Au3IldpS were
charging. and at a shot the standard-bear-
er fell. The dog and the flag were left
behind together Selling the tattered
shred OF tri-color in his teeth, Mustache
started across the field. Leaping from
the very feet Of the foe, who thought they
had gained the prize, on through shot,
and cannon roar. and smoke he sped until
ne reached the French lines, and dropped
at his comrades feet the blood-stained
rag. He lifted a broken paw, and the
regfmentai surgeon set it: and the Mar
shall Lannes. with his own hands, they
say. fastened medal around the hero's
neck. And then, they say, as Mustache
limped proudly down the line, all the SOL
diers presented arms as though he had
received promotion in rank, or the cross
OF the Legion OF Honor! There were
other campaigns after this. and in 1911
Nfustache died in the field, pierced through
the heart by a bullet.

Dear Bows and Girs-You will notice
that a member OF the club has contribut-
ed 10 your page an exceedingly interesting
sketch on Helen OF Troy" one Of the
subjects l assigned for sketches two weeks
ago. As Julia omitted any reference TO
the myth of the golden apple, suppose
some one OF you send me something
about that. You remember, Of course. that
prizes will be awarded January l, TO
those who win them by the contribution
Of acceptable sketches. etc.
published the letter. or. rather, an ex--
tract from H. which Miss Lowick sent
with the sketch. for the reason that a
part Of IL had a bearing on her compost
lion. This week I have had a number OF
pleasant visits from some Of you, at your
hours. which are. as you know, from four
TO five T. NJ on Mondays, Tuesdays
and Wednesdays. Misses Virgie and Hill
da Sargent. 94 west Marshall street have
enrolled themselves as club members and
were among my guests on last Monday
For the reason that there was not sufi-
cient space for my second talk TO you on
Greek mythology, ! postponed it for a
week or two. YOUR EDITOR.

WHlTSUkDAY.

When God Of old came down from heaven
In power and wrath he came;
Before his feet the clouds were rtven,
Half darkness and half flame
Around the trembling mountains base
The PROSTATE people lay;
A day of wrath and not Of grace.
A dim and dreadful day.
But when he came the second time
He came In power and love,
Softer than gales at morning prime
lowered his holy dove
The fires that rushed on Sinai down
In sudden torrents dread
Now gently light glorious crown
On every sainted head.
Like arrows went those lightnings forth,
Winged with the sinners doom,
But these. like tongues. DER all the earth
Proclaiming life to come.
And as on lsrael's awestruck ear
The voice exceeding loud,
The trump that angels quake 10 hear
Thrilled from the deep. dark cloud.
So when the spirit OF our God
Came down bis fock 10 ind
A voice from heaven was heard abroad
A rushing mighty wind
Nor doth tho outward ear alone
At that high warning START
Conscience gives back tn appalling tone
'Tis echoed In the heart
1t fills the church OF God; II Oils
The sinful world srcunds
Only In stubborn hearts and villa
No place for IL is found.
To other strains our souls are sst

But his heart is out in the golden bay.

Sends sigh through the world to roam
