The above diagram represents floor plan of the new power station to be To- cated at the corner of Powell avenue and Nineteenth street. The station will be single story building, with a base ment, 10 feet between joints. under the engine room, occupying an area about 145 feet by 153 feet.

man declares that society here is a troubled pool of water with the mud floating on top" This may be to some extent but every year the sediment is settling on the bottom and the gaudy bubbles on the surface are bursting. The circles within a circle are becoming more clearly defined. Like attracts like, and people thrown together will nat urally be attracted toward some and re- pelled by others. The dross and fine gold in an alchemist's urn soon separate.
 In Birmingham society are found some of the brightest men and most beautiful ladies in the south, and the eagerness with which visitors from other cities seek an entrance attests the fact that they consider it high honor.
 Birmingham society will permit no drones, as in other older cities. This is busy city, and even the wealthy are workers. The fear that some have of being snubbed by purse-proud people in society is often baseless. Those whose finer sensibilities have been bank rupted by wealth are not worth know ing. People accustomed to plenty all their lives take 1t as a matter of course and do not think as highly of money as those more circumscribed.
 The changeability of the personnel of Birmingham society is noticeable. The social favorites of one season are not those of the next. Financial trouble, stress of business, marriage, or some other evil of life, comes upon the petted favorite, and oblivion is the end. Re produced from Holiday Souvenir.

LITTLE BOY BLUE.

 The little toy dog is covered with dust, But sturdy and staunch he stands, And the little toy soldier Is red with rust And his musket moulds in his hands. Time was when the little dog was new iAnd the soldier was passing fair, And, that was the time our Little Boy Blue Kissed them and put them there. Now don't you go away" he said "tAnd don't you make any noise," Aiid toddling off to his trundle bed He dreamed of the pretty toys And, while he was sleeping an angel came And wakened our Little Boy Blue. Oh, the years are many. the years are 'eff long,
 But the little toy friends are true. 0dA Aya.af faithful to Little Boy Blue they stand, Each in the same old place, Awaiting the touch of little hand And the smile of little face. And they wonder as, waiting the long years I i.sIhrough,
 In the dust of that little chair, What has become of our Little Boy Blue Since he kissed them and put them there?

sPR1Na-T1ME FLOWERS.

For the Age-Herald. Behold the orchards silken clouds of Blossoms of rose and pink and variagated tints- Gracing the boughs that stood through win
 try gloom! The peach and pear and apple spread their hints Of resurrection morn, and cerements of the tomb To radiant vesture changed in Gods most wondrous loom. And see the gardens decked in blossoms The blushing hyacinths of sweetest scent Pure Roman hyacinths and lilys white, And violets in leafy homes content! They show to gladdened eyes an emblematc Of risen saints that shine in Eden's field of light. Where messy paths the mountains ridges
 thread,
 The ivy's richly clustering blossoms seem. To musing rustics, cen as though they said: Man lives again. and where the refluent stream Swashes through tangled banks that Vex
 the woodmans tread, The honeysuckles still proclaim the risen
 dead. o, sprngtime flowers, that come too low and
 high,
 Returning ever ever bringing back The cherished thought of immortality While spring your blooms on deadening winters track And each with other seems in life and light Our hearts with joy must swell-our faith
 can never die.

1T is A MISTAKE.

1t is a mistake to think that life is
all a bed of roses.
1t is a mistake to go through life
and neglect the laws of health and
life.
1t is a mistake at any time to allow
sickness or suffering of serious nature
to come upon you.
1t is mistake not to take advantage
of the best discoveries of science
for preventing disease and banishing
pain.
1t is mistake if any one has
not learned that the best and most
scientific preparation for accomplishing
this is Warner's safe Cure.
1t is a mistake that people who are
properly informed and warned do
not take advantage of the warning and
thus insure happiness and prolong
life.

The Eugene Guard says that Binger
Hermann. who was in that city, fully
realizes the unlimited advantages offered
by deep water communication, and speaks
in very flatterlng terms Of the improve
ments now under process of construction
which directly affects this county. He is
fostering the improvements of the upper
river and hopes to get appropriations for
a more elaborate system Of improvements.
One that will make the improvements
more lasting when completed and place
the river In condition for navigation this
far up at all seasons Of the year. From
the report Of the government engineers

lieves that improvements of the VILLAIN
ette should be carried on in conjunction
with those OF other rivers of .he state.

Where for whole days we alone seemed

That grew and grew until 1t wore the
