Do you not know that my heart she is stealing,
To trample it under her pear1y shod feet9
Almost I think you exult in the glances

And thus one more victim Of coquetry S fancies
Questions in vain-his fate is untold.

A Small Japanese Boy Held 1t and Would
Not Go Away.


Not Go Away.
while in Japan we went to Tokyo
to play Romeo and Juliet, said Mrs.
Potter recently. 1--WE played from 2
O'Clock in the morning until o'clock
in the evening, as the manager demand
ed plays that would last all day, and
when I told him that we had none Of
sufficient elasticity he replied that when
it was all ended, we would start all over
again Well, we did. The manager was
impressed with the necessity Of having
a moon, and that Juliet, as near as pos
sible, should always be kept in the
moonlight
well, the balcony scene arrived, and
there was no moon, but in the midst of
Romeo's most passionate wooing, which,
so far as the light on the stage was con
cerned, might have taken place at mid
day, the moon suddenly appeared. It
was in the form of lantern fixed on
bamboo pole and was swayed before my
face by a little Jap who stood beneath
the balcony in full view Of the audience.
The audience didn't seem to mind it in
the least, but it made me very nervous,
and every time Romeo would pour forth
his soul would ejaculato, Take away
that moon. But the boy was mindful
of his instructions, that Juliet was al
ways to be in the moonlight, and dur
ing the rest Of the performance every
time I came ON the stage was pursued
by that awful moon. Nothing could in
duce the boy to desist, and so the moon
held full sway. Rochester Union and

oremalIon orowIng u Favor.

The movement in favor Of cremation
as against earth burial is growing in
England. The other day MIR. William
Rathbone, ex N. P, stated in public
that he had made provision for crema-
tion in his own case on principle and
with view to promoting the reform.
At this moment a new crematorium Is
almost ready for use at Liverpool. 1t is
a neat building Of red sandstone, simple
and chaste III design. The main door
opens into q small chapel From this
room the coffin will be carried after the
burial service is read into a small apart
ment beyond and there placed upon an
iron frame running on wheels and rails
in a line with the furnace and pushed
noiselessly into the abode Of flames.
From the chapel the clergyman, fol
lowed by the relatives of the deceased,
will ascend a stair on the opposite side
from the door by which the coffin has
been removed into a small gallery over
looking tie door of the furnace. From
this gallery the service prescribed for
the grave will be read and the mourn
ers will take the last look Of the coffin
as it disappears within the furnace
The situation Of TIE crematorium at An
field is wisely chosen, being in the heart
Of pretty suburban neighborhood and
accessible from all parts Of the city.
There is an Office, with a cottage for the
earetaker attached, at the entrance gate.

And It's Unique Way Of Protection From
Fire by Fountains.
When foreign architects visit Japan
and see the cathedral Of Buddhism for
the first time, they are generally aston
ished at the magnificent structure 1t is
executed in pure oriental style and Is
richly ornamented with carvings Il.
Ito, a famous builder Of Nagoya City,
designed it. The structure was com
menced in 1878 ard was completed in
1895. The cost has been estimated at
$4,000, 600. 1t would have greatly ex-
oeeded this amount had not numbers Of
Bpddhists worked without any recon-
pense.
As the structure neared completion
the committee having the work in
charge was much perplexed as to fire
insurance. They found that no company
would assume the risk on such a valu-
able wooden structure, the danger Of de-
struction by fire being very great, and
thus the premiums would amount to an
enormous sum of money. At last the
committee decided on a design devised
by DR.. Tanabe. Numbers of powerful
fountains were constructed, both exterior
and interior, which can be made to play
on all parts of the structure at the same
time.
Usually only one great ornamental
fountain is playing, rising to the great
height of 157 feet. This is probably the
largest artificial fountain in existence,
emitting $4,000 gallons per hour In
case Of fire all the water pressure is di-
reoted through the numbers of exterior
and interior fountains. Thus every part |
Of the structure, both inside and out,
could soon be drenched and any confia-
grafton soon extinguished. st. Louis |

In the middle ages, says NJ. Jusserand,
peddlers swarmed along the road, carrying
to the smaller towns and villages the neo-
essaries and conveniences Of life-house-
hold wares, vests, caps, gloves, musical in
struments, purses, girdles, hats, outlasses,
pewter pots, otc.-all the varied stock,
in fact, which they carry today. That
their calling was not without its profits
may be argued from the fact that the tray
cling friars, expert judges in all matters
Of business did not disdain TO add this to
their numerous other vocations, as is
proved by illusions and statements in the
writings of Wyclif and Chaucer.
The utility Of the peddler throughout
the whole Of this period cannot be meas
ured merely by the material comforts and
oonyeniences which he brought with him.
Consciously or not he was one Of the chief
educational agencies Of the time, the bear
er Of news, the oircuator Of inventions,
opinions, ideas. AS one who had travelled,
he knew more than the homo keeping folk
whom he visited; as one who was bound

sights of this glorious Fourth, to visit
Tabor Heights, and see Old Glory wav-
ing from the top of a fir tree nearly 200
feet high" The flag, he says, was
placed there by Fred Bendick and Frank
Reising, employees of the City & Suburb
an railway, which feat he claims evInces
indomitable pluck and energy, and
fshows what the boys at Tabor Heights
are made Of" No doubt the flag float
ing from this elevated position is very
pretty sight, and it requires some energy
to climb the tree, but such an act is not
considered much of a feat in this coun-
try. School-boys have been known to
carry wheel of their teachers buggy to
the top of higher tree than the one
spoken of, and, after carefully trimming
the extreme top, to adjust the wheel on
it, and in descending trim off every limb
so carefully that no one could climb the
tree again. This showed pluck in the
boys; but it was not appreciated by their
teacher.-Oregonian.

with sufferers from habitual constipation,
piles and their attendant discomfort and
manifold arrangements. The Pellets /"
are purely vegetable and perfectly harmless
in any condition of the system. No care is
required while using them. they do not
interfere with the diet habits or occupa-

to the system. They act in mild, easy and
natural way and there is no reaction after
ward. Their help lasts.
The Pellets cure biliousness, sick and
bilious headache, dizziness, costiveness, or
constipation, sour stomach, loss of appetite,
coated tongue, indigestion, or dyspepsia,
windy be1chings, Heartburn y pain and
distress after eating, and kindred derange-
ments of the liver, stomach and bowels.
In proof of their superior excellence, 1t can
be truthful1y said, that they are always
adopted as a household remedy after the
first trial. Put up in sealed, glass walls,
therefore always fresh and reliable. One
