"MoItIEE's APRON STRINGS."

Whe- ] was but verdant youth
thought the truly great
Were those who ha6 attained, in truth
To mans mature estate.
And none my soul so sadly tried
Or spoke such bitter things
As he who said that was tied
To mothers aprOn-strings.
] loved my mother. yet 1t seemed
That / must break away
And find the broader world dreamed
Beyond her presence lay.
But have sighed and have cried
Ger all the cruel stings
would have missed had been tied
To mothers apron-strings.
Oh, happy, trustful girls and boys!
The mothers way is best
She leads you mid the fairest Joys
Through paths of peace and rest.
If you would have the safest guide,
And drink from sweetest springs,
Oh, keep your hearts forever tied
To mothers apron-strings

Lace and Leaf Prints Oh Iron.

1t is a curious fact which has often
been proven by actual experiment, that
delicate fern or other leaf may bd
placed between two smooth blocks of
iron, and have plain impression OF
every rib and fiber of itself left on the
hard surface of the iron plates after
they have been driven suddenly to-
gether by the explosion of a stick of dy.
Mantle. Another experiment in this
line, and one equally curious, is made
with a smooth block Of iron or steel anc
cake of compressed gunpowder. 4
delicate piece of lace is placed OIL th'
metal surface and the disk of powder il
laid on top of the fabric. When th'
powder is deioned the lace will be ut
terly annihilated, but its impression
will be clearly left on the metal.-S'

WOES OF THE PLAYWRIGHT.
Haunted by a Constant Fear His Genius
May Be Pirated.

Haunted by Constant Fear His Genius
May Be Pirated.
When man writes play, no sooner
does the manuscript leave his hands
than he is haunted by the fearful fear
that some one wants to steal it. The
poorer the play, as a rule, the more ter
rible his anxiety.
After 1t is printed and copyrighted
and has been presented at theater the
life OF the author is continual torment
lest his pearls of thought be filched by
some vandal and sprung upon the pub
lie in new dress. The author haunts
the theater looking for shorthand
writer's, as if his dialogue was the only
one that ever happened.
The amusing point about all this is
that the most exercised and worried
men are those who write the fearfu.
melodramas presented at outlying
theaters, and they act as if there real
ly was new idea in one of them. Why
any sane man should try to steal the
gibberish which masquerades as "a
picture of life in the metropolis" or
some similar aIluring title, is clear to
no one save a playwright. A man who
| would dare to concoct one of the awful
kaleidoscopes could keep on grinding
them out as long as they had stationery
for no brains are required. But still
the managers and playwrights affect
to be fearful that literary pirate
wants to steal the monstrosities.
| Most of the melodramas could not
be given away with n ton of ice. There
seems no reason why anyone should
steal such horrible shows, when theil
counterparts could be procured at the
detention hospital from any inmate
at low cost. But there is play dealer
in Chicago whose business it is to draf
copies of the cheap melodramas as soor
as they appear and sell them to the fly
by-night aggregations, which are 81
we'll suited to the needs of these Live
of Minneapolis productions. Anyon
with talent for coarse, rough Dialogue
and 1t.5S wit could write a dozen sucl
shows after seeing one, and it is tn
business of this enterprising play

cessful melodramas, writing in tn
parts as closely as the copyright la,
will allow. AS soon as play seems t
make hit the manager of snap barn
storming company applies to this eI
terprising dealer for show like it, an
in a few days he has his piece and tn
company is rehears;ng. And tha

PERSONAL AND iMPERSONAL.

A handsome granite monument to
Hugh Brown, the late Highland attend.
ant of the queen, has been erected over
his grave in Crathie churchyard.
"A naval cadet from Missouri has
been dismissed from the naval acad-
emy because it is alleged he miarepre-
sented his age to Presbyterian minis
ter of Baltimore and secretly married
an Annapolis girl.
Theodore de Banville is represented
in the statue sculptured by Coulon-
which is to be erected in the delightful
square opposite the railway station at
Moulins, birthplace of the poet of Les
ariatides-seated in an armchair in
his dressing gown and wearing the
black silk cap which made him look like
Pierrot.
Grant Allen is u noted naturalist as
well as a novelist, and has lately been
elected president of the Microscopic
and Natural History society at Hasle-
mere. in Surrey. There was strong op-
| position to his election on account Of
| the moral views expressed in his novel,
''The Woman Who Did, and when it
was found that he had been elected by
Il majority of two votes, several MEM
bers expressed their determination to
resign.
| Prof. Stowe, the husband of Harriet
Beecher Stowe, often said that he saw
visions of people in whom he was inter-
ested, and Mrs. Field recalls an instance
of this in the Review of Reviews. On
one occasion Mrs. Stowe was in her
room when it was supposed she was out
OF town. Prof. Stowe came in, looked
about him with preoccupied air, but
did not speak to her. She thought his
behavior strange, and amused herself
watching him; at last the situation be-
came so extraordinary that she began
to laugh. why" he exclaimed, with
Il most astonished air, lis that you?
