] look on thee whit sadness,
Thou flaxen-headed boy,
And Oh! l feel it deeply,
How great thy parents Joy!
What are the rich mans treasures,
Fame's garlands that we twine,
My child, to thy fair tresses,
To those bright eyes of thine2
And what are all the voices
Which but in praise combine2
Compared whit thy sweet lispings,
And - these hot tears of mine2
o child, thus speak thy lispings,

The Engineers Story.

1T was just year ago. said the
old engineer to the reporter of a West
ern paper, "that I was running my
commodation train on the Knoxville
& Jellico, down in North Carolina
Ever been there? Guess We don't know,
then, how the tracks snake round the
Carolina mountains. Too steep to run
straight down, ye see-land We in day
after to-morrow-so We have to crawl
down from the SWannannoa divide,
in an out, half a dozen loops on one
hillside. And We dassent run any too
fast, neither, count O. the sand slide
that's may be waitin' fur ye just round
the next bend
''Well, it was nasty kird O. day,
anyhow. Sleetin' and blowin', and the
clouds hung doWA in front of me like
curtains. I lost time, too, at Asheville,
waitin' fur pesky freight to get out
O. the way; so I was in a tearin hurry
and not the sweetest temper, you can
bet. Towards evening I was whizzin'
her along, thinkin' about Round Knob
and a hot cup of coffee, when. some
ways ahead, spied sheep in the cut.
There she lay, right across the track,
With two lambs snuggled under her
I whistled, but she never budged. Well.
was III a hurry, and I wouldn' "a,
mir ded. the old sheep so much, but
them little white lambs SOM chow put
me in mind of my baby, the cutest chap
ye ever see, and it went across the grain
to run 'em down. Had to slow up, any
how; it was right. at a bend, and I
yelled to my fireman to shove 'em off
the track. Well, ye never see a winter
face than that man came running back
with. Stop her, jim! Stop her short!
he holleSed. And if you'll believe it,
just around that bend was the biggest
sandslide eyer want to come acrost.
Took us a good hour and O. half to
shovel it off down the hillside"

':Did you have a nice dinner?" asked
Mrs. Norris Of her little son, who had
been spending the day with a friend.
''Outer sight," replied Robby, enthu-
siastically. "Say, mamma, why can't
we have things like that?'
"What did you have?' said Mrs. Nor
ris, quickly, to avoid discussion.
"Oh, we had soup and soft-shell crabs
and spring chicken and sparroWgrass
and puddin' -
"What sort Of pudding?'
II don't know. 1t was kinder fluffy,
with wine sauce to it. It was outer

':How do you know it was wine

EASY 'nough.'

"Nop! But + could taste it, cried
Robby scornfully. Il can just tell you

There is but one way to shoot well,
and and It is best to adopt that at the out
set. ssg ssSsg ~. :. -
= First, string the bow. Then put the
arrow s'nock, y on the string with the
right hand while the left grasps the

arrow between the first and second.
Now turn the bow until it stands per-
pendicularly, the left hand extended
toward the target. Draw the right and
push firmly with the left hand until
the arrowhead rests on the left fore
finger. Look straight and hard at the
center Of the target, but do not try to
sight along the arrow. Direct it entire
~ by the. sense Of feeling. Let go.
The first few shots will probably hy
wild, but very little practice ic neces-
sary to learn to shoot, and shoot well.
When through shooting, even for an
hour, unstring the bow Allow it to
rest. Never put it away strung.
After each days, shooting rub and
polish it with oil, or, better still, with
a mixture Of oil and wax A good bow
requires even more attention than q

The Archer's Outfit,

" this is meant the number of pounds
IN strength required to bend one-not
the weight OF the bow literally. A
thirty-pound bow is about right for ::
boy of ten or twelve. Girls should use
one somewhat lighter. A lad Of six
teen or eighteen will find a fifty-pound
bow quite heavy enough. ~
There are higher weights, running
up to- eighty and one hundred pounds
These are powerful weapons sufficient
to bring down deer, a bear, or other
large game, and entirely too heavy for
target use. The old English rule that
bows length should equal the height
OF the person using it is good one to
follow. 49,
Arrows vary in length to suit the bow
from sixteen inches to three feet. The
point or head is called the "pile;'' the
shaft is termed the "stede;;' the notch
at the feathered end the mock
Not only the bow, but arrows, quiv-
er and entire outfit may be made at
home. For the bow choose a straight,
well-seasoned springy piece of wood
free from knots.
1t is not necessary to use any one
particular kind. Mulberry, hickory and
red oak are all suitable, and good bows
have been made from hazel, white ma
pie, and. even poplar. The writer once
got an excellent one out Of the broken
tongue Of a moving machine, which
was Of tough white ash; another from
an old sleigh shaft, which was either
oak OF hickory, So old and brown it was
hard to- determine which. s'sa@s-
Trim down the stick selected, max
ing the back Of the bow fiat and the
inside round taking care Of the wood
The ends should taper a little. Test
the bow occasionally, until it bends
with sufficient ease The tips should be
made fiat on both sides, with notch
for the string. Around the middle glue
a hand-piece Of felt or velvet.
The string must be about six inches
shorter than the bow. Strong thread,
like that used by shoemakers, doubled
and twisted several times, makes a
very good boW-string. Make loop in
the ends, fastening them with a fig
ure 81 or similar knot which will not
slip. The bow, however, should never
be strung except when in use.
An Indian bow is made broad and
fiat instead Of rounded. except where
the hand rests. This portion must be
whitfield round and left rather large.
The bow should be about two inches
wide above and below the hand-space,
