LIFE.

This life's shadow OF the tomb.
A rosebud In its morning bloom.
A web and wool within loom.
An echo in vacant room.
A dewdrop on a tender flower.
A moment of q fitting hour,
A sigh for love within tower.
A raindrop of thunder shower.
A leaf upon the autumn trees.
Amosher's prayer on Bonded knees.
Like spray upon the silver seas
Or buxxinx OF the busy bees.
A sunbeam on. the rolling wave,
A moan above . lonely grave.
"A war cry Of the bright and brave
Or eroan OF an. gnconquered slave.
An atom born nron the air.
A heart surchasged with grief asd care.
And shuttlsd spsard here and there-
Nystsrions mafter everywhere!

Intelligent advertisers, how
ever, judge by results, and bogus

Times is many thousands in eX-
Cess of any other Washington
paper, and is believed To be iuily
two times that of its afternoon
contemporary.

The dandelion is an old world flower.
not native in America, save far to the
north and on some Of the highest of
our western mountains. But somehow
it was brought here, perhaps from Eng
land, in old colonial times. Now we see
its golden heads and feathery balls at
every grassy roadside, the "'clocks' the
boys and girls blow to tell the hour. A
few years ago farmers in the northwest
found a new weed, q vile, prickly weed,
in their wheatf1elds. In a very short
time this weed, the Russian thistle, has
spread over wide acres of the best farm
land in that part Of the country and has
done great injury to the crops.
How do these plants spread so fast
and SO far? They are not carried about
and planted. No one would be SO fool
ish as to SOW Russian thistles. The
mother plant must have ways Of her
wi for sending her offspring abroad in
to the world. Plants propagate them
selves in two ways, from seed or from
buds. Sometimes these buds are borne
on slender n A strawberry plant,
after 1t has blossomed, begins to send
out such runners, with buds, unfolding
tufts Of leaves. along them. These tufts
are at first connected with the parent
plant, but later the runners between
break away, and each tuft becomes a
new plant. Many grasses, like Bermuda
grass and the troublesome quick or couch
grass, have creeping stems, each joint
sending out a bunch of roots below and
bud on the upper side. II you try to hoe
up such grasses, you only make matters
worse. for each joint when cut of is
ready to form an independent plant.
Such grasses spread very fast and soon
take possession Of the land they get
into. -Thomas II. Kearney, Jr., in st.
Nicholas,

It il noteworthy that though in each
Of the American crematories more men
than women have been cremated the
movement abroad was practically begun
by women, Lady Dixie of England and
a German woman having been Gre
mated at Dresden. When efforts were
made in the years 1884 on the cont.
nent Of Europe, in England and in the
United States in favor Of the cremation
Of the dead. Lady Rose Mary Crawshny
wa one Of its prominent advocates. A
number Of we'll known women in this
country have expressed themselves de-
cidedly in favor Of cremation. Among
them are Olive Thorne Miller, Mrs.
Lippinoott. Mrs J. G. Croly, Mrs. Ella
Wheeler Wilcox, Mrs. Alice D. LIE Plon.

should be carried to the crematory. The
total number Of cremations in the Unit.

matory was established, to the close Of

THE NATIONAL PARK.


captain Anderson. superintendent OF
the Yellowstone National park, says:
The tourist travel TO the park shows
. visible increase every year, and the
past season the park has been visited
by people than in any previous
year. This is partly owing to the in
creased railroad facilities and conse'
Quently the more ease with which the
park Is reached.
AS regards appropriations by con-
Sress for the park, | am not in a posi-
