A CANADIAN TwlLtoHT.

The white misis gather on marsh and fen,
And down by the rivers edge
The tide IL lappi:lg the fibruys grass.
And the snarls of sea green setlSe.
Away In the west the sunset glow
Fades out OF tire cold gray s.;y.
And mp from the reeds that bend and
quake.
Comes the red necked looms weird cry,
'Oh-oo-whi-oo-who-wi, whi-ao - Who-wi,
whi-oO-who-wi!"
The fisher boats In the lonely hay
Lie anchored serene and still.
A red light CLEANS like n far faint star
From the dim crest of the hill.
The wind through the high limbed poplar
trees sex.
Is sweet as some quaint old tune,
Yet sadder, sweeter than grooming wind,
Pipes the single red necked loon.
''Oh-oO-whi-oo-who-wi, whi-o0 - who-wi,
whi-oo-who-wii't
From shadowiess heights the night creeps
down
And muffics the sounding shore,
The still white boats CLEAN spectral and
thin,
And the red light shows no more.
Yet ever across the darkening world
Creeps the rivers monotone,
And the pensive, p~laintive murmuring
OF the red necked loon alone,
Observation-Disclosures. whi-oo - who-wi,
whi-oo-who-wi!'

The animals Mt Lincoln park are nc
customed to q MONDAY nap, and as they
begin to grow sleepy and seek their

the various pastures they assume. Big
Major, the lion, stretches himself ont
upon the floor Of his cage almost upon
his back, his great head resting on his
mass of tawny name, which forms a
magnificent frame TO the face. With
almost infantile grace the paws are
crossed upon his peaceful breast, across
which, it is safe to affirm, not q wave
Of trouble rolls. The lower Jaw relaxes
for all the world like grandpa asleep in
his chair. Such a good, good lion, one
thinks, he must be. with such a good,
good conscience to sleep like that.
The monkeys, On the other hand, hud-
die together in punches, with faces
turned i'm and tails curled up, forming
80 compact . mass that only q ridge Of
hairy back of each is seen. These, one
says to oneself, must be miserable,
guilty wretches, afraid to face the world
and distrnstful even I'm sleep.
Yet the lion would not at all mind
dining on o man, conscience and all,
and the monkeys would not think or
hurting anything bigger than . fiea
and then only when IL persisted In an

West Point cadets, much to the delight
of doting parents and enthusiastic
friends, who filed the gallery TO over

very small boys-and infinitesimal

ont OF the boys class ON account OF size,
80 the girls had come TO the rescue and

As the word OF command was given q
series of graceful movements and poses
were gone through with in perfect time
to the music. These were evidently to
get the muscles in trim for the more
difficult feats 10 follow. Nine Of the
larger girls nov took of their long red
sashes and knotted them around the
railing at the end OF the hall, giving ii

await each her turn And the swings
and jumps and turns that they gave
would have taken the palm from some
of their male acquaintance.
The very smallest athletes nov had
achance TO show what they could do. On
the frunt row stood the tot, not very
well pleased with being stared at, but
nevertheless he began bravely, moving
his long wand from side to side, not i'm
exact time to the music perhaps, but
moving it somehow. But ait last his
feelings could no longer be concealed. q
tear rolled down his, chubby cheek and
with q big sob he fed from the scene.
After some very good work ON the
parallel bars came the prettiest figure

hall they came, by twos and then by
fours, with graceful dancing steps

The Shah's Highway.

The shah's highway, considered as
an agreeable promenade, or merely as
a necessary avenue Of approach to a
great capital, cannot be considered as
shining success. Straight away in
front Of us as far as the eye can reach,
1t stretches over level plain, and up
slight rise, bounded on one side by
the arrow-straight line of iron tele-
graph poles. The sky is slightly over
cast; a fierce wind blows in our faces,
bringing dense clouds of dust, which,
rise at times to a great height in the
distance, often taking the form of
Waterspouts or of towering columns of
smoke; once envelOped in one Of these
travelling dust-storms, there Is nothing
to do but hold our heads down, and
with eyes tightly shut ride through
it, emerging on the other side white
bearded like millers. Sometimes we
try to avoid these encounters by riding
over the rough and broken ground on
one side. There are many wrecks
by the way Of what were once stout
ships Of the desert, as we'll as the
last remnants Of horses, mules and
donkeys, lying where they gave up the
struggle for life. The only birds in this
drear >landscape are the ravens, which
hunt in couples, and fly up from the
road croaking hoarsely as we approach.
There is not even a hard bank Of
earth or stone large enough to sit
upon when it is time for lunch, and
one can only squat ANONYMOUSLY in the
dust.-From From Tabreez to Ispa-
ham," by Edwin Lord Weeks, in Har.

Sometimes Duped.
a good story is told on a certain
Western congressman who came to
this city the first time officially at the
opening Of the present session, says the
Washington Post. One night during
the recent rainy season the representa-
tive was walking along the avenue
in the vicinity Of Sixth avenue, at q
very late hour 1t was raining hard,
the cable cars had stopped for the
night and there were few people on
the streets. The congressman wis hllr-
Iying to his hotel, tightly grasping an
umbrella, which was pulled down over
his shoulders. AS he neare6 Sixth
street he noticed an elderly little wom-
IN standing on the corner, heavily
bundled up and holding WORKOUT par
asol over her head. AS he approached
the woman, she said:
mister, will you please tell me how
to get to Georgetown? I'm stranger
in the city and want to go to my sons
house."
"Georgetown?" exclaimed the con-
gresham, ''why, my good woman, you
are two or three miles from there and
the cars have stopped running. You
had better take cab"
us it so far as that?" inquired the
poor woman. 'Then I'll have to walk,
for have no money" and she sighed
heavily rs she drew her thin shawl
more tightly over her shoulders.
The lawmakers heart was touched.
He probably thought Of Que Of his own
family in a similar predicament: Div
ing into his trousers pocket, he said:
'Let me assist you, madam. Here
are 50. Now you can walk over to
the depot and hire cab to take you
t. your sons house."
He pressed the money into the wom-
ans wet hand and hurried on his way,
willie she murmuled: "God bless you,

They say that the generous congress
man slept better than usual that night
end that even the next day he had
not finished feeling good over his
kind act Three nights afterward, about
the same hour, the same congressman
was again walking along the avenue.
It was clear, cool night, and being
engrossed in a deep study he did not
know anybody was near him until the
figure of a woman stood in his path,
and he heard her say:
please, sir, can you tell me the way
to Georgeto-?"
CHANGING at the features of the speak
er, the congressman at once recognized
the woman he had befriended q few
nights before, and, as he cast a frown-
ing glance at her, he said:

found your son yet? Well, you just
wait for some other sucker to como
along. I've been there once"

not long ago, s'because my daughter

survey of the ''solid reading" pro-

the estimation of the one to whom
the complaint was addressed. A
child must be nearly starved to pre-
fer dry bread to dainty viands. The
quickest introduction to solid reading
is the historical novel or the we'll
illustrated and well-written book of
travels. In the selection Of both care
