Phillida on Her Wheel

Phillida on Her Wheel

This simple loro l had,

That every maiden fair
Was an angel unaware,
And / wondered when and whore
The wings would grow.
But wiser now am /,

Though I've sometimes seon them fly,
Yet / feel
They are something just between
Man and angel in their micn
Since my Phillida I've seen
On her wheel.
Sho does not show sign
OF wing,
But her figure is divine,
And the fling
OF her abbreviated gown,
As she ficlicrs through the town,
Might buy the throne and crown
OF n kingl
No halo of saint
Docs She wear,
Such as Lippo loved to paint.
But her hair
As when all heaven streams
Through tho landscape Of my dreams-
In such glory floats and CLEANS
On the airl
But not all for heaven She
Not TOO good
Yet she's good enough for me
In any mood.

A Night in the Circus.

All the old favorites with Wirth' s
circus were accorded a hearty well
come at the tent last night. The
audience was a frst-nighter, and it
was evident that the troupe is APP
preciated here.
Little Muriel Wirth did her
horseback act in her usual excel
lent manner, and the other tots,
Elsie and Katie, were quite up in
their performance. Lahl Sing and
Miss Lyndhurst, the star riders,
were rather better than ever. Sing
did couple of new feats- in his
Jockey turn that were marvellous
and made the nervous contingent
in the audience wonder what would
come next. There was a pleasing
change in the program last night
and there will be others tonight.
The trip to Donnybrook Fair, in
which two clowns rode wheels, was
very amusing. Tonight there will
be pig hunt, the catcher to get the
pig as prize. There will not be a
great many more performances of
this wonderful troupe, and people
who enjoy good riding and aero
batic feats should attend.

BOARD OF HEALTH.

John +. CoIburn Prefers MaunalIea
Street-Diseases in Pork-Tree'
Planting on Molokai.

The regular weekly session Of
the Board of Health was held yes
terday afternoon. There being
present, President Smith, DR.. EN-
erson, DIR. Day, T. F. Lansing, D.
Keliipio, J. T. Warehouse, DR..
Wood, DR.. w. T. Monsarrat, G. B.
Reynolds, DR.. Myers, DIR. Wayson
and DR.. Howard.
In response to question put by
the president, DIR. Monsarrat said
that there was no more than the
usual amount of sickness among
the hogs. In the recent wet
weather some had died from lung
disease. Quite number had died
at Palama and other outskirts of
the city.
The president suggested that DR..
Monsarrat attend to cases where
damage to meat or cruelty to ami
mails was suspected.
The president thought that
better system of garbage removal
should be instituted; at present
there were many defects. Better
work could be done if the whole
thing were put under the active
control of the Board of Health.
The expense would be no greater
than at the present time.
In regard to tree planting on
Molokai, the president said that
Mr.. Marsden had suggested the
erection of a shed or building for
the protection of the young plants.
No progress can be made until
protection is assured. The presi-
dent said that lumber had already
gone to Molokai for the building.
1t was suggested by DR.. Emer-
son that a list of burials outside
the regular burying ground be fur
nished the Board. The president
spoke of DR.. Wayson as person |
who could collect such information
while out on his rounds.

18th to Doth showed 3O,925 fish
received at the fishmarket. Only
two stalls were used at that time.
A letter from J. F. Colburn ask
ed for permission to sell fish on
Maunakea street.
The idea did not meet the favor
of the Board. 1t would lead to the
establishment of markets all over
the city.
DIR. Emerson thought that peo
pie should be allowed to sell fish at
different places in the city, such as
on Maunakea street.
T. F. Lansing said that the es-
tablishment of one market, such as
asked for on Manuakea street,
would lead to establishment of
others in the vicinity.
Action upon Mr.. Colburn's re-
quest was deferred.
A letter from Mr.. Myers of the.
Molokai leper settlement endorsed
the suggestion of paying premiums
to successful tree planters.
The Board then went into execu-
tive session for "a consideration of

Modern Pilgrims to Canterbury.

In the olden days pilgrims to Canterbury
who could not afford to hire steeds tramped
all the way, thus conducting to the prosper
ity Of the hospitable country inns, which
are fast disappearing from the land for
lack of support. Today those bent ON a
similar mission do the business In much
more comfortable manner. A pilgrimage
a La mode consists of breakfast in the
morning at home, jaunt In comfortable
railway carriage, luncheon at Canterbury,
return by train after prayers and sermon,
and dinner in London. Physical discom-
fort is this completely obliterated, and the
mind is consequently left free and undis-
turbed for the contemplation of the higher
objects pilgrimages seek to obtain. 1t was
in this way that body of devout persons,
intent on the reclamation of England to
the Roman Catholic faith, and known as
the Guild Of Our Lady of Ransom, jour
neyed by train from Holborn, after attend
ing service in ST. Etheldreda's Ely place,
to Canterbury, to pray at the shrine of the
unfortunate Thomas Beckett. There they
were met by contingents Of similarly
minded people from the neighborhood,
most of whom wore the robes of some re-
igious order. The relics of the saint were
venerated In due form ard prayers were
recited for the restoration of our country
to 'the true religion" The London con-
tingent then returned home by train.

Butchers Wife.
Butchers seem 10 become good netured,
as if it were an unavoidable consequence
of their business. They are brusque. as a
rule, but there is twinkle of good humor
in their eyes, and their fat, ruddy checks
shake with merriment on slight proyoca-
ton. 1t is good thing that they are for
there is plenty of trial to their patience in
their oustomers-at least the butchers say
SO.
,"Say, Mr.. Fliegelspiel, do you think I
bought that meat to ornament your shopP"
asks al irate lady of middle age as she
comes into the butcher shop in a whirl of
Indignation.
'sWhy?' asks the smiling butcher.
"Why? I bought that piece of beef half
an hour ago, and you told me it would
reach the house as soon as l. The meat
has never appeared. j want it for my hus-
bands dinner. If you don't want to send
it, give me my money back
"My dear Mrs Dempsey, sent that
meat ten minutes ago. suppose it got
there just as you left the house. Go back
and you will find it there. -
Thus, with blandness that is refresh
ing, the butcher dismisses Mrs. Dempsey.
No sooner is she out of the shop than he
produces Mrs Dempsey's meat from a
shelf under the counter, throws it into a
basket and says to a boy:
Here, get this around to Mrs Demp-
sey's place before she can get home. Tell
her you couldn't get in and that you have
been waiting at the house for quarter Of
an hour. Hustle now
Away goes the boy, and the sleek butcher
laughs again
1t is fact that there are more cranks
coming to butcher shops than you'll find
anywhere else, observes the butcher, as
he sharpens his knife and carves away at
half an OK lying en- the block before him
II suppose it is the trouble of trying to
satisfy cranky husbands with meat that
does 1t"
The butchers wife smiled brightly in
assent and carried on the remarks begun
by her husband in her own wsy. Said she:
sIG is harder to please man with meat
than with anything else that is put on the
table. know that, although my husband
is butcher and can tell me Just what to
get I have seen that man turn up his
nose at the most beautiful steak at break
fast and at dinner time gruaable because
ne couiu not nave Jfss0 uhet particular cut
They are the most inconsistent people on
earth.
"Who-butchers OF men2''
"Men. don't think butchers are worse
than other men. But there is something
IN meat that brings out all the crankiness
in mans nature, 1t is not the woman
fault that she cannot be pleased with the
meat that is offered to her by the butcher.
She would be willing to take most any
thing, but she knows that she has that
hungry, disagreeable man coming home to
his meal and that the chances are he will
complain about his food whatever may be
set before him. If had my way, would
make every man buy his own meat. Then
he would know what it is"
"Goodp' said the smiling butcher. New
