They are all There.

Take walk through the cemetery
alone and you will pass the last rest
ing place of the man who blew in
the muzzle of gun to see it it was
loaded. A little further down the
slope is buried the crank who tried
to show how close he could pass in
front of a moving train. In stroll
ing about you see the modest monu-
ment of the hired girl who started
the fire with Kerosene and a, grass
covered knoll that covers what is
left of the boy who put cob under
mules tail. The tall shaft over
the man who blew out the gas casts
a shadow across the boy who tried to
jump on a moving train. Side by
side the ethereal creature who al
ways had her corset laced to the last
hole and the intelligent idiot who
rode a bicycle nine miles in ten
minutes sleep on undisturbed. At
repose is doctor who took dose
of his own medicine. Away over
there by a side gate reposes boy
who f1shed on Sunday and the wo-
man who kept strychnine side by
side with the baking powder in the
cupboard. The man who stood in
front of the moving machine to oil
the cycle is quiet now and he rests
by the side of the careless brakeman
who fed himself into a seventy ton
engine, and over.in the corner of the
fence in the Potter's field may be
seen the bleaching bones of the man
who tried to whip the editor.

Would trouble my mind

Nor given you needless pain;
but we veX 'our own
With look and tone
We might never take back again.
For though in the quiet evening
You may give me the kiss of peace,
Yet well it might be
That never for me
The pain OF the heart should cease.
How many go forth in the morning
Who never come home at night?
And hearts have broken
For harsh words spoken
That sorrow can ne'er set right.

And smiles for the sometime guest,
But oft for tour own"

Oilcloth and linoleum are ruined
oftener in the cleaning than in any
other manner. Too hot water and
the free use of soap are the usual
faults in the treatment they receive.
Left half wiped they look very
bright while wet, but dingy and
streaked when dry, and the colOrs
soon crack and peel off. A soft fan
mel aud lukewarm water are the best
things for general use upon Oilcloth,
and you should make sure that it
is thoroughly dried after washing.
Equal parts of milk and water used
upon oilcloth brighten and improve
