You heard him laughing as he shut the gate.

Perhaps she only wished that she were you.
But tho sea heard you too. and blushed fire

Murmuring coafuscdly. But, what he said
Echo, wouldn't tell you if l knew.
And the moon heard you, that LON; clustered

Hid her still face and backward thought of

Now, Echo, say, who was the lovely youth?
Well, then, mean the GLOW that you kissed

coo hours. During those 20 year; l wrote
400 volumes and 30 plays. OF each of tho
400 volumes an average of 1900 copies
have been printed and sold at D lrancs
each. The 50 plays have each been per
formed. on an average, 100 times. My
books have produced $50, 600 francs; my
plays have produced g. $50, 600 francs. TAX

The Gift Came Back.

The young man might have become tho
husband of the girl, only one night when
they were at little party she drank a
cocktail that was playfully offered to her.
He felt it his duty to reprimand her mild
ly. She resented his interference and the
engagement was broken off.
He sought forgetfulness in travel, while
she, with woman's enterprise, became ell
gagged to another young mau.
A wedding invitation was sent to tho
traveller as peace Offering, and as he had
recovered from his first grief he sent con
gratulations and also wrote to ono of his
friends and directed him to purchase some
suitable wedding gift and send 1t to the
happy pair in his, the rejected ones, name.
Now, this friend, not being acquainted
with the circumstances under which tho
first engagement had been terminated, and
knowing that the bride and groom had
liberal notions us to the sort of an enter
tainmcnt to be provided for callers, Bought
O handsome sidUboard, with all SorlI Of
bottles and glasses and mixed drink mp
planes, and sent the glittGring barruom
array to tho BRIDES house.
Imagine, if you can, the fury of the
bride.
As she explained to one of her friends,
"IIo might as well have told me to 60
ahead and drink myself to death"
Perhaps the traveller doesn't know that
his wedding present has been sent back
and is in storage, awaiting his arrival in

HOW OLD Is NIAGARA.
This Is a Question Asked by Scientific
Men-The Estimates.
KNOWLEDGE

The Niagara river. which had first been
a strait joining Lake Erie to the Unitarian
gulf. gradually became wide, shallow
the lower lakes subsidized. its bed narrowed
and its fall increased TO 40 feet. But the
river was soon greatly enlarged. The land
was rising to the north OF Ontario as well,
and ultimately the outlet from Lake Huron
to the Ottawa valley was blocked. and the
surplus waters of the three greatest lakes
moved by their present course to Lake Erie
and thence TO the Niagara river. With the
continued rise OF the land, especially toward
the east OF Ontario the water level rose
until IL attained its present elevation, and
the fall OF the river between the two lakes
was reduced TO the present $50 feet. Can
dates be assigned to these events? The
first estimate OF the age of Niagara river
was given by Ellicott over n century ago
at 50, 400 years; Blackwell. in 1880, gave 70 900:
Lyells estimate OF % 600 was accepted for
many years after 1s4l, but recent writer's
using the mean rates of recession during
forty-eight years as determined by surveys.
made a new and careful computation OF the
age of Niagara river and falls. He shows
that the recent estimates have not taken
into account the various changes that have
occurred in the fall end volume of the
river. His calculations result in a valHe
nearly that of Lyell's.
Dr. Spencer believes the Niagara river
was formed $4,000 years ago. and that a
thousand years later the falls were in ex-
about two hundred feet; thereafter the
water fell 420 feet. Seven thousand eight
hundred years ago the drainage of Lakes
Superior. Michigan and Huron first flowed
through the Niagara gorge. and three thou
sand years ago the waters rose in Lake
Ontario until the level reached that of to-
day. The falls, then. are 3l.000 years old.
This estimate. calculated from the rate OF
erosion, is confirmed by another made from
the terrestrial movements. Two deductions
may be given-one TO the past, the other
concerning the future. The lakes came into
existence after the glacial epoch. and Mia
CARA after the lakes. and calculations based
on the mean rate of rise of the beaches in
the earlier period of the lakes history
show that the close of the ice age may
safely be placed at fifty thousand years
ago. As to the future: With the present
rate of calculated terrestrial uplift i'm the
Niagara district. and the rate of recession
of the falls continued. or even doubled, be-
fore the cataract shall have reached the
Devonian escarpment at Buffalo, that lime
stone barrier shall have been raised so high
as to turn the waters of the upper lakes
into the Mississippi drainage by way OF
Chicago. An elevation of sixty feet at the
outlet of Lake Erie would bring the rocky
floor of the channel as high as the Chicago
divide. and an elevation OF seventy feet
would completely divert the drainage. This
would require five to six thousand years AT
the estimated rate of terrestrial elevation.

VAGUE TALK OF Discomfort.

In an address before the farmers conven-
ton General Harrison said that there were
wrongs to be righted, but at the same time
he advised his hearers to ascertain what
the particular wrong is before making an
attack, lest they should waste their am
munition by firing IN the air. This eau
ton is recalled by several articles, printed
since the election. in papers which did not
support Mr.. Bryan. One of them tells its
readers that the reason why certain States
voted as they did is the general discomfort
of the people with existing conditions.
Many people, this paper says. feel that they
do not get what they believe belongs to
them. 1t fails, however. to specify, and
consequently it's demand that something be
done can be of no account.
There is discomfort in some sections. be-
cause discomfort has been preached in some
States for years. Then, there is a natural
feeling Of discomfort because ii is a trait of
human nature to desire more than one has
or can get. There will always be discon-
tent. 1t is we'll that there shall be, because
the contented are satisfied with what they
have and when such a feeling prevails to
a large extent no progress can be made. In
this country, where there is an open field
for all. and where more people strive for
better or more desirable conditions than
elsewhere, the discomfort must be much
greater because of failure.
1t would be we'll for some of these intel
ligent people to set forth few of the
causes of discomfort that they may be con-
sidered with a view of applying a remedy.
Doubtless there is a remedy for some
causes. while for others there cannot be.
III the cause Of discomfort is that such
prices are not obtained for staple products
as are desired, a remedy may be found in
efforts to secure wider markets or to limit
production; but the law of demand and sup
ply can neither be modified nor repealed to
make people content. If the cause of dis
content is due to a belief that the same
effort does not secure the same degree of
benefit as it has at other times. the first
thing to do is TO ascertain if this belief has
tanned by an investigation. In passing, it
may be said that Investigations do not, in
ordinary times, warrant such an opinion.
1t is too much to expect that the spirit of
unrest shall be settled. 1t could not be
done, and it would be unwise to attempt it.
So long as there are things which men do
not have and desire they will strive for
them. and this striving and failing consti-
tute unrest and discomfort. There are
remedies for some evils which can be dis
covered in time. but not until the evil shall
be fully defined. On the other hand, there
is discomfort for which there is no remedy
because it has no basis in reason. 1t
would, therefore, be better for those who
are talking of indefinite discomfort to
turn their Efforts to ascertaining its causes.
Otherwise they are in danger Of firing in
the air.
