You never saw gal surprised
Like Jimmy Kenyon's sister
The night that Bill Mckee devised
The scheme by which he kissed her.
The two were standin at the gate,
To whistle she was learnin,
Her lips were II mptin, and twas late
10 kiss 'em Bill was yearnin.
"To whistle you must do like this"
Said Bill, and, leanin over,
He showed his, puckered, to the miss,
Whose own, as red a. clover,
Soon puckered in the self same way;
Then, would you believe 1t, mister,
Ere she could turn her head away
The cheeky chap had kissed her.
The color famed into her cheek.
Her neck was dyed with bushes.
She trembled 80 she could not speak,
An down among the rushes
The brook leaped up to tell the flowers
That lent their heads to listen
How Bill Mckee taught Susie Powers
The old, sweet game Of kissin.
I sorter guess she liked the gone,
For many hours they tarried
Beneath the sumach's flags o flame,
An in six months they married.
Iseed Bill yesterday 60 by,
A baby carriage wheelin.
He never knowed or thought thenI
Know all about his stealth.

GEMS In VERSE;
IN the Grave Of an Unbeliever.

On the Grave of an Unbeliever.
Some men believe In God, and that great faith
Gives them the strength for all their earthly
needs.
Some know life beyond, and faith in that
Makes burdens light, gives strength for noble
deeds.
This man believed in man; in doing good;
In simple, silent pluck; in goodness; honesty:
And SO believing, lived his short life through
And gave that life noble majesty.
Simple his faith, yet strong enough to make
Him bear life's burdens as they should be
borne;
To shars with others only their great griefs;
To help the weak; to comfort the forlorn.
We saw him lose what seemed his all In life;
We saw him made to feel acutest pain;
We never saw him turn from duty's path
Or yield at all beneath life's greatest strain
o Father. somewhere in thy heavenly home
Must be place for such true sons of thine.
Who, midst all doubts and troublous unbelief.
Cast all their living on the plan divine.
Let him who SCOTS at all who own thee not
Refrain from thinking such men are unblest.
They serve their God who serve their fellow
men
BY simply doing what they feel is best.

The Old Mans Idea.

II met an old fellow down in Ohio not
long ago." said the drummer, ION a train
going out of Columbus, and he became
communicative on very short notice. He
was quaint, though, and rather liked it.
He talked great deal about his boys, and
I asked him after awhile how many he had.
"'Seven,' he replied.
"'That's fine lot said I. What do
they dor
"Well, six of them are in politics and
one is in jail
"'That's bad
"'Yes, but it might be worse. There
might be seven Of them in politics. DE.

He Wanted 10 Learn.

Did you ever try to teach man how to
waltz? If you never have, don't attempt
it. One girl went through such an ordeal,
and this is what she says about it:
SIN the first place, l stood beside him,
took hold of his hand and tried to illus
trate how the first steps went
"Then told him to do us I did, and he
began to seesaw back and forth like wild
Indian.
when he whirled around, both arms
sprung out, sometimes hitting me in the
eyes and occasionally giving me whack
in the back of the neck.
'His feet made themselves into Chinese
puzzles. He invariably toed in, walked on
his own heels, or else pranced around heel
and toe fashion.
HE said that he had no idea that he had
so little control over his feet.
II had to sit down every few moments to
collect my thoughts, catch my breath and
refrain from growing incurably cross eyed
trying to keep track of the whereabouts of
his Shoes 1t was 'one, two, three, four
until my lips became parched from con-
slant counting.
You'd have thought that he was walk
ing through snowdrifts to watch his steps.
Such wiggling, such twisting and twirling
never before gazed upon.
II kept saying, You must be very tired;
won't you rest awhile" and he always an
swered: Tired? Well, guess not! This
is just too jolly
"And then off he'd go in mad tangle Of
jumps and hops, and all the time he sang
that awful thing about My left foot is
crazy, my right foot is lazy, now don't be
unazy, I'll learn yez to waltz
after awhile he insisted on my dancing
with him. Well, when I'd start he'd be-
puzzling about which foot he should begin
with or else he'd say, Hold on now till
think of something to whistle
"When we did make a beginning, he used
me for pivot and raced around me as if he
were the tire of a wheel and the hub.
'Oh, it was awful! And when we got all
through with the lesson and was puzzling
my brains wondering why it wasn't moro
successful, it suddenly dawned on my weak
little mind that had taught him to begin
with the same foot that girls begin with.
$50 Isuppose I've got to go through the
whole thing again the next time he calls"

My Pillow.

Sweet Pillow, take me to your breast.
None other hath my soul confessed
So oft, no. ever kept so true
The confidence reposed as you
My Pillowl
What dreams of fame, that never came;
What dawns of love, no day fulfilled:
What boundless dover of wealth and powell
Have stirred you as my bosom thrilled
My Pillow!
When storm and stress my soul have rent;
When courage, love and life seemed spent;
To you al ne, tried friend and leal,
Could in doubt and darkness steal
My Pillow!
But storm and woe no more I know,
Nor rosy dawns seem mockery,
When far hail one snowy sail,
That bears new life, new love to me-
My Pillowl
Since now within your Utmost fold
A whispered secret soft you hold,
So holy that scarce may dare
Remember how breathed 1t there
My Pillow!
Without name the rapture came;
Dear heaven bent low and touched my life;
What heart reveals the awe it feels
When motherhood first crowns a wife
My Pillowl

MONTH. MAX,

There is NO other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France, that
can show such stable and equable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
er need fear no sudden changes. little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and inflammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only 3 in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and it
must be remembered that the local con-
tingent of consumptives is daily aug
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is rs out of every 1000 of the CON-
munity; in Minnesota it is IA, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
tenn perature of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The dry
tonic air of the mountain altitude fills one
with viyacity and health, and so strong is
the Influence of tho ozone and electricity
on the nerves and system that acclimntion
is wonderfully rapid. This of itself is q
great boon. Gases are on record of in
crease in the chest measure of immi-
grants here of from four to seven inches.
NATURAL ATTRACTIONS.
Besides this Santa Fe lies in most
picturesque valley. 1t is at the entrance
of splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pecos National park, where fsh anl game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places of pic
turesque aud OF historic interest Among
which may be mentioned the old adobe pal
ace, first erected shortly after 1905, from
which the Spanish viceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
dates from about 1716; but it is full of
interest, as every room is consecrated by
the memory of thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.
The chapel of San Miguel, was built in
1850 and still stands. By its side is tho
oldest house in the United States. Tho
walls of the old cathedral date from 1922,
but the rest of the structure IL of more
modern date. Within con senient dis
tances are the Indian pueblos Of Tesuqua
and Nambe; in a side canon Of the Santa
Re arc the delightful Aztec springs, while
about nine miles up the main water
course Is Monument rock. The road
thither is one of surprising loneliness.
To the south of town is Aqua Fria, and
the famous turquoise mines pronounced
by Tiffany the finest in the world; and
beyond the Rio Grande are the San Ilde-
fonso Pueblo and the curious Cliff dwell
lings.
Other points of interest to the tourists
are: The Historical society's rooms; tho
"Garita," the military quarters, chapel

In Heaven.

Al 0obt0Ns
There's new, sweet face in heaven, and It
CLOVIS with wondrous light,
AS the beauties of Gods kingdom are opened
to its sight.
There's q Using voice In heaven that with
childish rapture rings,
And know the angels listen when in joyous
ness 1t sings.
There's pair of tender blue eyes that are
opened big and wide,
That yet are filled with memories of home
beyond the tide.
There's pair of tiny, dimpled hands held out
in fearful plea
Asking him who rules heaven and earth to
comfort you and me.
There's sound Of musical footsteps echoing
through the street,
There's short of happy multitude as they
rush forth to meet
The newborn angel baby that 10 heaven has
found Its way,
That we have given back to God, with sad, ach-
ing hearts, today.

"Give beauty" Beauty sighed and fled,
For what on earth should beauty do
When love, who was her life, was dead?
She took the balm Of innocent tears
To hiss upon her altar coal;
She took the hopes of all my years,
And at the last she took my soul.
With heart made empty of delight,
And hands that held no more fair things,
Iquestiol ed her, what shall reQuite
The SAVIOR of my offerings?"
"The gods" she said, with generous hand,
Give guerdon for thy gifts of cost.

The worth of all that thou hast lost"

Lyric of Action

Lyric of Action.
"Tis the part of coward to brood
Der the past that is withered and dead.
What though the hearts roses are ashes and
dust2
What though the hearts music be fled?
Still shine the grand heavens o'erhead,
Whence the voice Of an angel thrills clear on
the soul,
"Gird about thee thine armor; press on to the
goal!"
If the faults or the crimes of thy youth
Are q burden too heavy to bear.
What hope can rebloom on the desolate waste
OF a Jealous and craven despair?
Down, down with the letters of fear!
In the strength Of thy yalor and manhood
arise
With the faith that illumes it and the will that
defes.
"Too late!" through Gods infinite world,
From his throne to life's nethermost fires
"Too late!" Is a phantom that flies at the
dawn
OF the soul that repents and aspires.
If pure thou hast made thy desires,
There's no height the strong wings of immor-
tails may gain
Which in striving to reach thou shalt strive
for In vain.
Then up to the contest with fate,
Unbound by the past, which is dead!
What though the hearts roses are ashes and
dust2
What though the hearts music be fed2
Still shine the fair heavens oerhead,
And, sublime as the angels who rule In the sun,
Beams the promise Of peace when the conflict
is won.

GEMS IN VERSE.
Lines to a Cynic.

LIneB TO Cynlcs
He daily trod the ways of busy men,
Silent, serene, and in the city's mart
They often marked his placid features when
They could not read the anguish in his heart.
Inscrutable and grave of mien to all
Save me, he seemed a man of marble
wrought.
But II knew his calm was but pail
Wherewith to shroud the skeleton Of thought.
Was not his secret writ upon his brow
In one sharp symbol, pittfully plain2
That furrow was not turned by Times dull
pillow,
Rather sword cut dealt by deathless pain
He daily paced the city's populous ways,
But through his heart a sad and hopeless song
Went ever singing, and his patient gaze
Was fixed on something far beyond the
throng.

Don't Blame the World.

Don't Blame the World.
Don't blame the world because the thorns are
found among the roses;
The day that breaks in storm may be oil sun
shine when it closes.
We cannot hope to always meet with fortunes
fond caressing,
And that which seems most hard to bear will
bring with all its blessing
The buried seed must rot in earth ere it pro.
duce the flower,
And the weak plant to fructify must have both
sun and shower.
So man, to gain development, must struggle
with life's crosses
And view with calm philosophy his trials and
his losses
A deadly, poisonous weed may yield salve Of
purest healing;
The sweetest bloom may pois'nous be, although
its bane concealing.
Things are not always what they seem, but
still twas heaven designed them,
And we should class them all as good and take
them as we find them.
Little we know Of this brief life and nothing Of
its sequel;
Then let us take in humble trust all that may
seem unequal.
Gods ways a. not our ways, and he certainly
should be trusted.
AL that Ia wong In his good time will surely
be adjusted.

had lost the entire use OF her right arm. She

her from school and abandon her music les

would have had that terrible aiIliction. We
had employed physicians, but she received no
benefit from them. The first Of last August abe
weighed but 70 pounds, and although she hos
taken only three bottles of Nervine sho now
weighs 106 pounds; her nervousness and symp-
attends school regularly, and studies with com.
fort and ease. She has recovered complete use
Of her arm, her appetite d splendid, and no
money could procure for our daughter the health
