In some parts of New England and
perhaps elsewhere, when some COM
mon impulse seems to have led all the
women to go shopping or visiting, it
is customary for old people to say:
We'll, well, l guess it will rain to-
morrow"
At sea, as might be expected, the
same rule does not hold. Thus an ex-
change reports nervous lady passen-
ger as saying to deck-hand
Have you ever seen any worse
weather than this, Mr.. Sailor?"
Take a word from an old salt,
mum" says the deck-hand; 'thg
weather's never very had while there's
any females on deck a-makin' hen
quiries about it. "-Chicago News

ont of his box, when out jumped
Tommy, angry as he could be, and
scolding loudly with his usual chir-r-r..
chir-r-r, but none the worse for his
long sleep
The box was filled again, and Tommy
made himself a new nest, near the top
this time, for he was too sleepy for
deep digging, laid in fresh supply of
peanuts, and in few days went to
that we saw nothing of him till the
following February, when he came
out, lean and hungry, making his usual
demand for peanuts; but was soon as
fat and lively as ever.
We now happened to learn his early
history, and how he came to u.s. Three
or four young gophers had been
brought in from the country by SON
of the janitor, who lived in the build
caught by the cats, or had fallen down
the stairs. except tins little fellow; and
he had crept in behind a coal bin in
the hail, and slept there all winter till
he came to us.
In this way we learned that gophers,
like bears and some other animals,
sleep, or hibernate, as it is called,
during large part of the year, which
accounts for the fact that they are
seldom seen except in spring and early
summer; and so they escape the sum-
mer's heat and winters cold in their
underground nests. and come out full of
vigorous new life in spring.
You will be sorry to learn that poor
little Tommy came to sad end. There
was always vessel Of water left for
him, but one Saturday night it was for
gotten, and SO he went to the wash
basin to get drink, and fell into the
water and was drowned, not being able
to climb up the slippery sides and get
out; and there we found him on Mon
day morning. That was sorrowful
day in our Office, for Tommy was a
great favorite. The little body was
tenderly wrapped in paper, placed in a
box, and taken home and buried in the
garden; and many tears were shed over
our little pets grave.-Philip Atkin-
son, in Wide Awake.

THE WORDS IN SMOKE.

Story of the Young Man Who Didn't Have
Any "Gllt-Edged Luck"
A poor young man was leaning
against post on Boston common. At
least, took him to be poor young
man, judging from his words, and from
the expression of his face. He held in
his hand the languishing stub OF a
cigar. with puff from which he fre-
quently insulted the inoffensive air.
Said the poor young fellow, the cor
ners of his mouth drawn down almost
to his chin: 'It's hard luck. I don't
seem to get along. The firm doesn't
pay me enough by half. Now there's
Bill Akens, he went in when Ibid, and
he owns his house, and he has money
in the bank to boot, while bah! my
pockets full of bills, and can't keep a
cent. Now. he has luck, gilt-edged
luck, while have
While he was thinking of word
mean enough to express his financial
depression the poor fellow took puff
at his cigar, and we both of us watched
the smoke whirl away in the air.
What was my establishment to see the
curling wreaths form themselves into
letters, shaped like script, and read
ing: Here goes my money" l looked
at the young man in amazement, but
he was serenely putting away, quite
oblivious to that strange smoke pen
manship.
"That's queerw exclaimed 1: but he
without allowing me to explain what
was queer, went on with his complaint.
''Queer? l should say so! And just
see how that Bill Akens stands with
the firm! Why, there's some talk of
his getting into partnership. But +
why, the other day limited to the old
gentleman that 1 thought my salary
ought to be raised, and he as good as
told me if didn't like it might leave
it. Leave it? / guess I would, in
hurry, if I could get another place"
And this time he gave an exceedingly
vigorous puff at the cigar.
Again the mysterious air currents
twisted the smoke, turned it over and
over, and drew it out into the words:
Here goes my reputation" 1 was
about to call his attention to the re-
markable phenomenon-for, though,
he was leaning back with one eve
cooked up at the smoke. evidently he
did not read anything in it-but he
proceeded in still more indignant
strain.
'And what makes it all the more un-
grateful is that am absolutely wear
ing myself out in their service. NY
head aches nearly all the time, and my
eyes ache, and I am actually getting
to be afraid of heart disease, have
such queer feelings in my chest. They
ought not to expect any one man to do
as much work as do-at least on such
q ridiculous salary"
With these dolorous words the poor
chap slowly Strengthened himself and
sauntered disconsolately away, still
comforting himself with his cigar.
And as the twisting. surpentine train
of smoke strung out after him it took
shape much as before, save that this
time it read: Here goes my health"
And as passed on shed tear for
the poor. prosecuted, unfortunate
young man.-Amos r. Welln in Young

Flabby Flesh and Weak
Nerves Need Food.
The SanoW, Lean, and
Weak Should Secure
Vigorous Body and Joyous
Spirits Before Winter.

Sunshine aud bright weather are the
heritage from August to September; but
this is month of dangerous weakness
to hundreds of people.
The first tendencies toward consump-
ton, Bright's disease, and rheumatism
are developed in these early fall days.
Nature is off her guard.
Rheumatism and neuralgia are motor
iOuslv diseases that begin in September
and October.
The little signs of nervousness, OF
kidney trouble, and heart weakness
should not be overlooked. Small all
ments now become deep seated diseases
in winter. Winter is for every one
more or less of battle for health and
exstance,
The stock of health laid up against
winter emergencies must be secured
now.
Headaches and loss of appetite are as
easy TO read AS sign posts. Their in
variable direction is that one is APP
preaching nearer and nearer to break
down and serious illness.
Following the modern medical knowl-
edge that disease is due to poor nutri-
ton of some organ, Paiae's celery COM
pound was first prescribed by Dart
mouths gteat professor, DR.. Phelps.
Results that have repeatedly astonish-
ed many for when skillful physicians
could do no more, confirm the wisdom
of trusting all TO nutritlon-,he complete

match. Did You ever travel on one of

a lovely incident. As we waited for
the conductor at station Che had
stopped off to visit his family young
couple came aboard in a hurry. Be
fore long we learned that they had
eioped and were bound for Gretna
Green just across the state line, where
the law didn't call for a license
and other delays in marrying. They
were greatly frustrated because the irate
parent was in pursuit But finally the
train got away without the parent APP
pearing. l say got away, and mean
that it left the station but the station,
you know, wasn't any kind of a racer.
Finally the state line was passed and
the long-desired town reached, and as
we all alighted who do you suppose APP
peared? None other than the irate
parent. His patient mule had gone
ahead, beaten the train, and there he
stood (the parent, not the mule). con-
quering hero. ready to intercept the
two. We found he'd been waiting near
ly thirty minutes"
''But, Doctor interrupted listener,
why didn't you perform the ceremony
on the train when you reached the state
line?'
Il did," said the doctor. quietly.
THAT was the joke on the parent. -

DREAM-LANO.

Though the years be fed, and the pain is dead,
And the grief is over long,
Yet on dream-land track doth the soul go back,
And 10. the sound Of a song
Thai rings from glade where the trees are
green.
Where the wind OF sorrow never hath becnt
And out OF the night come back to sight
The forms ana faces OF yore,
The old love wakes and the old Joy takes
Color and light once more:
There sounds voice we can never hear,
A step that has left Us for many year.
The sunbeams creep over eyes that sleep
And We wake with start 10 fnow
That in fair dream land we have ciaspeo hand
Which held ours-loug ago.
And VIC thrill TO touch that Is lingering yes
To passion o.; love, and Of vain regret
And for many day we weEd our way
The unseen world around US,
For the soul has snapped the chain tnal
wrapped
TIE earthly links that bound Is.
And the wcrkaday weird around Us seems
Less real by far thaa the land OF dreams

And lots OF play and fun.
You've fished in many brook. dears.
And climbed up many hill;'
Now back again to school, dearS.
To study with will.
We all can work the better
For having holiday,
For playing ball and tennis.
And riding on the hay.

Prepares us plain to see
How very well worth learning
All other books may be.
So back again to school. dears.
Vacation time is done;
You've had a merry recess,
With lots and lots Of fun.
You've been like colts in pasture,
Unused to bit and rein,
Now steady, ready, children.
It's time to march and train.
IT'S only ounces loiter
When sounds the SCHOOLGIRLS call
So fall in ranks, my boys and girls,
And troop in, one and all.
For school is very pleasant.
When, after lots Of fun,
Vacation days are over.
And real works begun.
