Peel and Wellington.

Dean Boyle in his "reminiscences"
tells a striking anecdote Of the mutual
appreciation of the same quality Of high
sincerity in public life of the famous
statesman, Sir Robert Peel, and tho
Iron Duke" Of Wellington.
Mr.. Wood, friend Of Dean Boyle's,
had at one time. when the Duke OF
Wellington was very i'll in London.

at which Peel was visiting. AS soon as
he arrived, Sir Robert called him aside
and asked with intense anxiety what
was the latest news of the dukes condi'
ton. 1t was considered hopeless. and
Mr.. Wood told him So The great min
lister broke down utterly, crying out
with burst of tears:
"He is the truest man | have ever
known"
The duke, however, recovered despite
the predictions of his doctors, and sur

The same conference.-the. Wood--by
a curious coincidence was present whei
Peel was thrown from his horse and re

him home, remaining for some time II

services he might in their time OF con

Married or Single.

One Of the ways of telling whether
man is married man or not is to ex-
anime his pockets. In the pockets OF a
bachelor you will find:
Half a dozen letters from girls.
A tailor's bill.
Three or four old checks for theater
seats.
Bills for supper.
Theatrical looking photographs.
A lot Of invitations to dances, DIN
ners and receptions.
A tiny glove scented with violet .
But the married mans pocket VIII
contain:
An old bill.
A couple of unposted letters wmcf
were given him to post week past.
A sample Of impossible shade whici
he must match.
A newspaper clipping telling OF sur
cure for Group.
A shopping list ranging from a boz
of blacking to three yards of lace.
Bills.
More bills.-London Tit-Bits.

SHOOTING STARS.


Across the strings Of memory
A zephyr breathes from out the past,
When youth believed the shooting stars
That nicht nthwart the heavens east
They told him that the soulfclt wish
Asked, while still glowed the flashing brand.
We're sure 10 fall-a wondrous gift
Within faiths supplicating hand.
How mary dreams Of love end wealth.
How m,ily hopes Of name and fame
With boy Ia trust-so soon outgrown-
We're Los ded on each fitting tamel
Say twas the credence of the fool.
A farce whore folly played chief part
II had what too much after lacks.
The earnest service OF the heart.
And so Of all those radiant ships
That one time sped DER seas OF air
And piled up high with golden dreams.
Struck Ages rock ana foundered there.
| Hung IN the sanctum Of the soul.
| Where death can only force the bar,
Alone remains that Joy we knew
| And lived when dreaming OF the star.
