Love In Masquerade.

dreamed that love came knocking
AT your door one winter night,
While the specter trees were rocking
In blast OF savage blight.
''Oh, perish !" poor Love pleaded;
"ope the door, for loves dear sake"
But although you heard and Needed,
Still no answer would you make!
Not oneword OF sweet replying
Would your naughty lips have said,
Even II Love had lain there dying,
Even IL Love had lain there dead!
Then dreamed that Love o'er-ruled you ;
For in tender voice he cried,
NAY, dear lady, sadly fooled you,
Since am not Love, but Pride"
And you straightwsy oped your portals,
With a merry and welcome nod,
To that widest OF immortals,
To that masqueradins god.
All, you oped your portals lightly,
Not for Loves, but Pride's dear sake;
Yet, o lady, II l dreamed rightly,
Love soon taught you your mistake!

A HUMID TIME.

Thermometer 9S.
"H'm!"
Humidity S4."
"Thnt's not bad"
"Not bad? What do you mean?
Not bad? Why the weather today is
simply suffocating."
To emphasize his opinion Ned bent
over and drew long drink from the
syphon of vichy embedded in ice.
Perhaps" said Jack Hargous,
''you believe that this isn't hot, when
/ tell you that not very long ago 1
struck a temperature of fully 160-and
no sun shining, either"
"Rats!" was Ned Wyman's con-
temptuous retort.
"But I'm telling you the truth, my
dear fellow"
And where in the world did you
strike such terrible heat as that would
be?"
"In the hot room at Turkish bath
the other night" Jack answered, with
out even a supposition of smile.
"Humph!" grunted Ned. 1t was
decidedly too warm for such jesting.
He picked up the seltzer syphon again
and eyed it as if meditating whether
to turn the stream or this audacious
fellow who ridiculed weather so hot
that it wilted suffering humanity.
"No, you don't" laughed Jack,
lifting q bottle of ink from his friends
writing table and holding it poised.
"I have seen too much of the West TO
ever allow a man to get the drop on
me-"
Ned good-naturedly returned the
syphon to its bed of ice and reached
feebly for cigar, which he lighted.
"Wyman, growled Hargous, "why
don't you show some animation?"
Glow can a fellow, when the
weather is so beastly?"
"Yet, if all men were like you the
tropics would never have been dis
covered, aud the world would be ages
behind its present development.
Speaking of travel and heat, have you
ny idea where the greatest heat is
found?"
"Bombay?" suggested Ned, indif-
terently.
'No, not exactly, In Bombay 10
is pretty hot, and when the mercury
gets up to 1l5 the people openly as
sert that the weather is being import
ed from the Internal regions. But
the greatest heat 1 ever met was where
the mercury climbed to 140."
SIN the shade?" gasped Ned.
"There wasn't any shade there"
"Where was it?"
"On the Colorado Desert"
ooh, that's in Southern California,
isn't it?"

IA. It's the dreariest, hottest place
on the Continent.
''Did you find the heat really un-
comfortable there?" Ned asked.
"Yes, decidedly So"
'T'm mighty glad" was the growl-
ed answer, "that there's one place on
earth that's really hot enough to make
you admit it,"
"It was year ago." resumed Jack,

Money Found.

Hon. Thos. E. Hill, the author of "Hill's
Manual" has lately brought out most i'm
portant work under the above title, in which
he proposes an effective yet conservative
remedy for the present business depression
and distress among working men. He ar
CUES that the main cause of the country's
distress is lack of confidence in private banks
including those miscalled national" and
that the true remedy is for the government
to open its own banks, pay three per cent
on long time deposits, besides receiving de
posts subject to check without interest, and
lend money to every one having good secu.
rity, at four per cent. This plan, Mr.. Hill
holds, will bring instant relief alike to those
who have no safe place of deposit for their
savings and to those who are obliged to pay
exorbitant rates of interest under the pres
ent system. 1t will also enable all business
to be done with checks, and thus make
stealing impossible. 1t will not add to the
cost of government, bat will on the other
hand afford a net revenue of nearly
S400, 100000. An appendix to the book con-
tains glossary of financial terms and sum-
mary of historical and statistical facts rela-
ting to finance which is simply invaluable
for reference to any intelligent writer,
speaker or voter. The price is S1.00 in full
morocco, rs cents in cloth and rs cents in
paper. 1t is meeting with a wonderfully
rapid sale through agents wherever it is in
troduced. Charles II. Kerr & Co., 175 Mon
roe Street, Chicago, are the publishers.

Our community was greatly shock
ed when the news spread Feb. 25th
that Judge E. Holland of Panton had
been killed by his four year old Jer-
sey bull, it was pet and he was not
prepared for an attack. The animal
had evidently killed him and then roll
ed and tossed him for rods until he
was content to leave him having torn
nearly all the clothing from his body.
The family became alarmed at his alb
cence and the hired man started out,
found the animal loose and was also
attacked by him and terribly hurt but
at last accounts is likely to recover.
