RETROSPECT.

n OOK back a moment-how they
n glowed,
That wonC rful array of poppies
Across the hedge. hard by the road.
A vision of vermilton light
Too suddenly shut out from sight
BY wayside wall and clustering coppice'
Waist high. wild roses held the trees
In tangled passion of embraces
And by the pathway, skirting seas
OF heaving grass or arrowy wheat.
Iris and death-pale meadow-sweet
Raised to your fairer face their faces.
j saw you tread that narrow track
Midway between the grass. and noted
How straight the crowding spears stood
back
Green as those waves which at com
mand
Rose like a wall on either hand
To let Gods chosen pass dry-footed
The year had climbed to mid-July
And stayed moment glad and glowing,
To flash across the eXultant sky
Her white and azure, gold and rose!
Alasi-what sadder hues she chose
To hide her desolate outgoing
II | should search the old year through,
From first to last / should discover
Headaches and heartaches not few;
And yet, that moment-howers and
trees,
Sunset and you! She gave me these.
And for their sake and yours love her

Kalispess Inter Lake: Something should
be done to encourage lot owners to plant
trees along the streets. Left to individual
work it is done in a scattering, desultory
manner that accomplishes little. In some
of the Montana towns the city council has
decided to buy trees and furnish them
free to any lot owner who will put them
out and take care of them. In others the
TOWNSHIP companies have taken hold of
the matter and furnished the trees. At
least a thousand trees should be planted
along the streets in Kalispell this year.
and two thousand would be better.

A LOVE SONG.
Owe. the moon is overhead.

r Owe, the moon is overhead.
IL All the misty woods are still;
What was that my lady saidF-
Il will never wed until
Some great hero that / meet
Sucth humbly at my feet.
Well-a-dayi Well-a-dayi
What if she should tell me nay;
/ will wait another day.
Once again the moon is new
Like a broken band of gold,
New or old. my heart is true.
But my lady seemeth cold.
When the mellow planets shine,
Shall l ask her to be mine?
Well-a-day, Well-a-day'
What if she should tell me nay
will wait another day.
Sooth think she'll drive me mad
Yet l thought when passing by,
That her blossom face was sad.
And a tear was in her eye.
Can it be if l should sue
I should find her heart was true?
Well-a-dayl Well-a-day.
/ will wait another day
Not a shred or moon above.
And of starlight there was none;
But I met my lady love.
And l wooed her, and l won.
Shyly, sweetly, did she own
That she cared for me alone
Well-a-dayi Well-a-day
Yet she might have told me nay
Had / asked her yesterday.

POPULAR DEMAND ron SILVER
Facts showing That 1t Exceeded the
supply in tS93.

Outside OF the silver seigniorage in the
treasury there is no idle silver in the
treasury which can be paid out into the
circulation. All the silver authorized in
the circulation is already in the form of
actual silver coins or silver certificates,
and the silver can not be paid out legally
except when silver certificates are pre-
scented for redemption. In 1893 the lie
mand for silver dollars was so great th2t'
5000 600 worth of silver or silver certin-
Gates was issued in excess of the legal
amount authorized The secretary of
the treasury apologized to congress for
the over-issue. 1t goes TO show that The
actual demand for silver as represented
by silver certificates actually exceeded
the supply in 1893 when the great rry
was on for the repeal Of the Sherman ril-
yer bill

When your stomach begins to trou

When your stomach begins to trou- ble you, it needs help. The help it needs, is to digest your food, and, un- til it gets it, you won't have any peace. Stomach trouble is very distressing, very obstinate, very dangerous. Many of the most dangerous diseases begin with simple indigestion. The reason is that indigestion (not-digestion, not nourishment) weakens the system and allows disease germs to attack it. The antidote is Shaker Digestive Cordial, strengthening, nourishing, curative. It cures indigestion and renews strength and health It does this by strength ening the stomach, by helping it to digest your food. It nourisihes you. Shaker Digestive Cordial is made of pure herbs, plants and wine, is per- fectly harmless and will certainly cure all genuine stomach trouble. Sold by druggists, price 10 cents to $1 per bottle.

Pennies Not Legal Ponder ia Amounts of
 More Than Twenty i've Censs.
 There is a postmaster in c little town not far distant. who is noted for the amount of authority he is inclined to show in trivial matters. A short time ago, says the Mount Morris (Aich.) Union, a business man of the place ap- peared before the stamp window of the office and demanded 300 one-cent stamps, for which he laid down an equal number of pennies. Here was good chance for the authoritative gentleman, and with a view of teaching his impor- tance, he picked 25 pennies from the heap, handed out 225 stamps and showed the rest of the money to the would-be buyer with the remark that pennies were not legal tender there in amounts of more than 25 cents.
 Expostulation was in vain, the post master cited the law in the case and that seemed to settle it. With malicious gleam in his eye the buyer swept the re- maining pennies into his pocket and mildly inquired: T suppose can get one-cent stamp here for penny, can't IF" Certainly" sss,d the man at the window. 'Then give me a one-cent stamp" said the other laying down the money. It was handed to him, and he demanded another and another after that. Several people had come in in the meantime, and were impatiently wait ing their turn at the window, but the obdurate buyer Aopc on gravely buying one-cent stamps on the installment plan. Seeing determination in the face of the other, the postmaster offered to arbitrate, but it was of no avail. He continued to buy as long as his money lasted, and triumphantly departed amidst the approving smiles of the crowd.

AFTER THE ARMADA.

The Combination of Trade and Private
 War Under Elizabeth.
 The defeat of the Armada inspired England with energy and hope. Our people, says Blackwood's Magazine, be- came busy traders. Flemish traders had been ruined by war, Flemish refu- gees had focked into England, and Antwerp, the great port for new world commerce, had been sacked and taken. England succeeded to the trade of which the Dutch had been deprived. Beyond the ocean lay vast world of wealth, of which Spain, united with Portugal, claimed the monopoly, thereby exclud- ing English commerce from the larger half of the planet. Systematic vio- lence-that is, the combination of trade with private war-was the only mode in which this monopoly could be at tackled.
 Elizabeth connived at this covert mar itime war both before and after the Armada, and the struggles between Eng fish traders and Spanish monopolists were far too numerous and important to admit of peace between the two gov ernments. It was this spirit of com mercial adventure, whether it be called piracy or a heroic attempt to rescue the new world from the inquisit;cn and give it back to the free use of the human race, which was the first step in the de- velopment of three colossal growths- British trade, British empire, the Brit ish navy.

Passengers on the Flint River divi- sion of the F lint &5 Pere Marquette rail road who came to Flint. Mich., recently reported observing a strange phenom- enon in large, level fields not far from the city, says the Chicago Tribune. Hundreds of snowballs, some of them of colossal size, have been rolled to- gether, it is thought, by the action of the wind. The fields were covered with them, and nature accomplished in one night what it would take large force of boys several days to do.

BECOMING ENDEMIC.
The Earthquakes Which Are Frequent
 and Severe in Japan.

In the island of Japan, of late, earth quakes seem to have become endemic, says the London Standard. Again and
 again for several years past has this country been shaken, and sometimes the destruction has been very severe. A complete list of these limitations would form a melancholy catalogue of the devastation which has been caused in different parts of the country, and very often in the neighborhood of Tokio. The frequency of the shocks is surprising; in one year, 1885, they
 amounted to 4S2, and in the following year they were only ten less. The loss of life has often been on a terrible scale, and the destruction of property enormous. During some of the most severe disturbances bridges were de- stroyed, railways were seriously dam aged, their rails being bent sometimes up and down and sometimes sideways; | landslips were caused, houses, gardens and fields were ruined, and in some cases even the breadth of the valleys was said to have been altered. The cal. r.hquake we announce today oc- cured in the northeast province of the country on the evening of the 31st ut. No details have as yet arrived, but it is said that the town of Rokugo was entirely destroyed, and several others severely shaken, many lives being lost. The cause of these terrible scourges is not easily determined. Explosions of gas and steam at some considerable depth in the crust of the earth have been suggested, and as Japan is a vol canic country, this explanation might be applied to it, as well as to the dis | turbance in Iceland, of which Mount Hecla is stated to have been the center
 But we must fall back oD something else for the neighborthood of the Eng liSh channel. Volcanic action, how ever, may be connected with move ments of the crust of the earth. Japan is also a land of mountain ranges, in which the rocks are often greatly bent and crushed. In the process of fold, ing they are strained and must ulti. mately break. On rupture, grea1 masses of rock may be violently dis. placed, and the shock thus caused transmitted to long distances Suct an explanation would equally apply te the feeble tremors of an ancient high
 land district, and the more violeni shocks of region of mountain making

 Young Mexican Going Insane.

Antonio Dorame, the young Mexican who was arrested at the instigation of his father, who claimed that the young man was insane, was yesterday exam ined by Probate Judge Grouse.
 Several witnesses testified to the pc culiar actions of the young fellow, which proved conclusively that he was of unsound mind. He first showed signs of insanity after a senorita's re- fusal to marry him, when he attempted to cut his throat. He next became a religious enthusiast and was con- tinually mumbling, "In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost at the same time making gestures sug- gestive of cutting his throat.

R TERRAPIN CATCHING.

Taken Most Abundantly in Cold Weather
 Because of Their One Unvarying Habit.
 No successful method of catching ter rapin in large numbers has yet been de- vised. A kind of set net is sometimes used, but with no remarkable success. The general statement holds that ter rapin are caught singly. At no season of the year do the fishermen, who make side issue of terrapin, know ex- actly where to look for them. All their movements are aimless, and their only habit which can be depended on is that of burying themselves in the mud at the bottom of the water during the continuance of cold weather.
