With strong, clear eyes and dauntless

Gentles All. yes. I've seen her 70,
Gentle as any mating dove.
And full al heart Of tender glow
That brightens TO sirens love.
While all her biossoming soul il rife
With the sweet fellowship Of life.
Yet dignity and will are hers.
And fearIessness in bitter hours;
What wonder that her worshipsrs
Swear by her words, her smiles. her
flowers?
let /. who feel her radiant youth
Swear by her virtue and her truth

A certain thrifty Philadelphia house
wife used to boast that she was able to
make enc jar of brandy peaches sers e
for several tea parties. The secret of It
was that she canned the peaches when

ed them. In consequence they were al
ways hard, so that when an unwary
guest attempted to cut one with spoon
1t generally flew off on to the floor.

In tho performance of his recent feat
sampson was, in an athletic sense, simply
magnificent. Taking two chains, tho ten
siie strength OF which was said to have
been 1900 pounds, he slipped them over
his arm and pullW! them up over and
around tho hiccps muscles, which they
'ishtiy onciroiod. Clinching his FISTS no
slowly raised them toward the shoulder.
Inc muscle swellod more and more till it
seemed that the chains would be imbed-
ded In tho tissue. Suddenly both chains
broke and fell TO the ground. Examina.
ton OF tho broken chains showed that the
exhibition was In every way genuine.

larger and stronger than any used In the

known that tho presence at Athens Of one
of our great and successful American
teams was largely due to the efforts of Mr..
Burnham, and, in consequence, his fame
has spread to tho uttermost parts of the

Mr.. Burnham is modest man, o bank-

He was graduated from Harvard in 1870
and was the first coxswain of n Harvard
crew. Ho also steerod tho famous Harvard
crew which was beaten by only little
more than n length by Oxford In the first
international boat race In 1869. He is n
thoroughly manly man, mentally and
morally as well as physically, and tho
world of sport is proud of him
