A Polar City.

Numbers of explorers who have sought
the arctic regions in quest of the pole
have told of q mysterious city mirrored
against the northern sky-stately build
ings in choice architecture, tall and inn
posing spires, but such as differ from
anything we know about. Whether the
foundation of this mirage is a reality
and only unrecognizable because Of
transposition as to directions, whether
it is work of some mysterious remnant
of our race that once occupied the pole,
or whether this is some fanciful feature
of the frost, as the peculiar shrubbery
we see ON the window pane-whatever
this is, it must be consigned to the per-
picking enigmas of the unknown region.
Who knows but some spot, once the the
alter of busy and advanced human life,
may have escaped the general cataclys-
NAL wreck, and this city may be the 81
lent and as yet undiscovered witness of
prepolar times, standing alone in the
dead desolation, i'll the rigid snroud of
now polar death. If we must be barred
from entering this undiscovered country,
we may add to our equipment by care
full noting Of its mixture, and then give
to the base Of these phenomena a most
thorough study.-Philadelphia Press

IA BELLE DAME SANS MERcl

Ny love is young. my love is fair.
Sweet. true and aipiabie is she,
With turks eyes and topaz hair
Alas, my love Is lost to me!
Her no crasades nor cranlzs confou1d,
Nor Ibsenitish problems vex;
She has no theories to propound-
I've never heard her mention sex.
She doesn't smile on risque nots;
Her taste in dress is quite divine;
She's half an angel, goodness knows,
But, ali, she never can be mine.
/ knew she painted tambourines
And pickle jars and copper bells,
With flowers and storizs and river scenes
And moonlight views on scallop shells.
She's painted photo frames galore
Wood, velvet, ivorine and brass;
She paints the panels Of the door:
She has not spared the looking glass.
The plush framed plaques upon her wall
Her limp art muslins everywhere,
The floral drain pipe IL her hall
They know the pangs I've had to bear.
And now the Rubicon is passed,
The great abyss between US set,
Tie final blow has fall n at last
I've said goodby to AEloret.
Goodby to bliss that might have been,
Goodby to happy hopes that were .
She's "draped'' vern;s- Martin screen
And aspinalled an empire chair.
