LOVES REMINDERS.

Shy bluebird on yoa maple spray,
My coming causes you surprise.
You cry aloud and fly away
On wings that glitter as they rise;
So blue are they, so skyey clear.
CneQusled bliss their beaming brings;
For now think OF one most dear.
Whose eyes are bright as bluebird's wings.
From covert groves glides forth a triu
OF wild birds singing Justify.
Yet while l list my thoughts will still
Seek her who is most dear 10 me,
For, oh, her soft and soothing voice
Sounds merrier than the leaping throng
Or waters when spring rillS rejoice
Its music mates the linnets song.
Upon bourgeoned white birch broad
a squirrel gambOls Spry and fleet,
Until, by my rude spaniel awed.
She higher mounts on hasty feet;
And as she bounds without fall
From lower limbs TO limbs above
Her agile motions well recall
The fiake-light footballs OF my love.

The woodb bird calls, the shadows fee,
The sun comes golden from the sea;
Across the meadow as | stray
For you l take the fern fringed way,
To gather viOlets wet with dew
Which only bloom, my love, for you
For you. my love, alone for you!
The grasses bend, the dewdrops shine,
The hawthorn's breath is sweet as wine;
The soft wind steals with presence sweet
To fling white petals al my feet
And lift the leaves from violets blue,
Hidden 10 wait, my love, for you
For YOU, my love, alone for you.
Blue as your eyes, which hearts beguile,
Their faint perfume sweet as your smile,
i gather them, with fervent prayer
That they ny passion may declare;
Their petaIS pale, tear stained with dew,
May tell how live but for you
For you, my love, alone for you,

The gentle shower which fell in the northern part of Holland county last Sat- urday afternoon, in the vicinity of Rock vile took the form of tempest of wind, hail, rain and electric disturbance.

Code of COlOrs In Sealing Wax.
 Dainty French people have never dis placed sealing wax with the gummed en- velope, and in the haute monde of France there is 8 certain symbolism in the choice of colors. Blue denotes constancy; yellow, jealousy. Pink is appropriately used by young girls, and gray is em- ployed when writing to an intimate friend Red is confined to business, and engaged lovers find ruby symbolical of the intensity of their emotions. Green is for letters from lovers who live in hope, and dull brown warns the impa- tient lover that his offer is refused. White is chosen for communications re- lating to weddings and black for obitu- aries. Violet expresses sympathy. Choc- olate marks the invitation to dinher.--- Paris Letter,

 There a1e few better collections of horse flesh to be found in New England than those at Gary Bros stables, under training of Dana Gary, now recognized az one of the best drivers and trainers in the state, and the more a favorite with horse owners because known to be always trust worthy and cool headed, and total ab- stainer from use of stimulants. Among horses now in his care are J. B. Taten.'s ''Star Girl, record 2.a9a; Lady Bashaw, 2.32t; Star Lambert, Jr., and Clay Lam- bert, and several others. More are to come later and most of these will be en- tered in the Eastern Conn. Circuit this fall. Of Mir. Gary's success in developing horse flesh, a notable instance was seen last fall in Rockwell Boy, retired from the track because of having seemingly stopped development at a record of 2. 31t and returned to farm drudgery. Under MT. Gary's tuition he made record in the fall races of 2.24, with pretty safe in- dications of reserve power. He will be further educated by the Gary Brothers this season.

sOns W ho Dlcu TO AvonKe Ih6tr rain
ers-The Forty-seven Rouins.
No crusader OF the West, no vik-
ing Of the North cherished a higher
ideal of loyalty and chivalry than
the clansmen of old Japan; no Corsi-
can more ruthlessly handed down a
feud from generation to generation
or exacted from son and brother the
execution OF a steruer vendetta The
Satsuma mon of to-day triumph in
the fact that their own swords have
avenged IN this generation the de-
feat inflicted on their forefathers In
the year 1900 by the Toklgswa clan,
says the Nineteenth century.
Legend and drama recount every
day to eager ears the stories of sons
who died to avengc their fathers,
clansmen that they might slsy the
foenicn who hnd caused the death Of
theit lord. The favorite heroes, who
hold in popular estimation the place
assigned by us to Robin Hood and
his men, are the forty-seven ronips,
a name given to men who have lost
their clanship. Their lord Wig
obliged to commit hara Ira or judi
cial suicide, for having with
in royal precincts drawn his
sword on noble who had
insulted him. and these staunch
vassals devoted themselves to tho de-
structior OF the insultcr, knowing
assuredly that. having slaie him,
they would be equally condemned to
tako their own lives. Still may be
seen fresh incense sticks burning be-
fore the graves of their lcadof and
his young son and visiting cards
stuck into the little tablets above
them as tokens OF the respect in
which they are held by those who
know their story and dsplore their
doom.
MIR. Black records that at review
of British troops in 1861 at Yolso-
hama - great duimio was watching
with interest the mancEvers of The
regiments and batteries of artillery
stationed there. At tho conclusion
he was asked to allow the escort of
his retainers who had accompanied
him to go through thci- drill and
tactics, to which he readily con-
sented. Turning to Sir Ruthford AL
cock, who was inspecting the troops,
he proudly said: "My retlnuc is
small. and their tactics are not
worthy of notice after what we have
seen, but there is not one man among
them who, II l say Die will not
unhesitatingly sacrifice his life at
my command"

Weighing tho Earth.

The earth has not been put in a
scale and balance against q known
Aeight, but the mathematicians have
calculated its weight Professor
Maskelyne first attacked this sub
ject id 1872; when, by repeated ex-
periments, he determined the at
traction exerted at Mount Schihal-
lion. in Perthshire, Scotland, on a
plumb line, which it caused to devi-
ate nearly seconds. Playfair, Caven-
dish, Hutton and other scientis ts
then determined that tho structure
of this mountain made it have dens-
ity. RS compared to the mean density
OF the earth, OF five to nine. Then
the comparative density of Schihal-
lion to water was ascertained, and
that of earth to water being known
as about five and half to one, it was
not hard to calculate the rest, know
ing the cubical contents of the earth.
1t has been stated as 5,SI2 trillions
of tons OF 2,240 pounds each, or h
value in pounds avoirdupois repre-
sented by thirteen and twenty-four
ciphers.
