Then in three days more,
Young Rubdub broke down.
Asked if his mother was there
And dubbed about her;
Though he ought to have known Diff
ferent
We braced him up for days;
Passed him the whiskey..
Gave him a cholera mixture,
And helped him along
We were half crazy to reach the mines
Sometimes we had to carry him,
Inc four of us, two at a time.
One day we heard a shout;
1t came from a GIMP
We had got near the city of Dawson
The miners got sight of US;
We heard them yell;
One of them rushed I'D:
My mothers comet" chirped Rub
dub.
He might have known better than
that
When the Klondyker saw what we
carried,
He said, speaking low, Hes done
for
An l guess Rubdub was near his
last,
For he breathed hard.
Next thing a lot o. miners came I'D.
One whispered to me:
Take him to Forty Mile Camp;
There's chance for him there"
We agreed, for we heard back at
Juneau
There's a hospital out there, some
where.
AT last we neared Forty Mile Camp:
And Rubdub was pretty near gone.
Though we took him along on a
board,
He had chills when we got to the
place.
Now you couldn't tell what we then
saw.
There up in the Arctic circle,
A man wearing black said, Here's
the hospital"
But that didn't strike us much.
What struck us was two women in
white,
And the man in black said, They're
Sisters of Mercy"
Up there in the toughest part of this
earth,
Where the snow is everywhere for
ever,
Where it's cold as the north pole,
Where hardly bear can live,
We saw a settlement of Sisters of
Mercy.
And they took in Rubdub,
Who was just about gone;
And they nursed him, and had a
doctor.
Weeks he stayed there.
All this time we raked in dust at
Klondyke.
Rubdub got through all right,
And he turned up one day at our
diggings;
And we worked for a month in the
placers;
And he made a big strike, rich mug
gets;
Every dollar cause OF the nursing he
Got from the Sisters of Mercy in the
Hospital at Forty Mile Camp.
True as you're alive,
There are Sisters Of Mercy
Out in that part of Alaska,
And in other parts of it;
And it was a good thing for Rubdub
that we heard of them.

HERE AND THERE.

Where may the wearied eye repose,
When gazing on the great;
Where neither guilty glory glows.
Nor despicable state?
Yes-one-the first-the laot-lhe best
The CinciDratus of the West,
Whom envy dared not hate;
Beneath the name Of Washington,
To make man blush there was but
One"

Bonaparte, April 10, 1914.

UP IN ALASKA

We were up in Alaska,
\ prospecting party Of FIVE,
Up in the Arctic circle,
Up near the north pole
And you couldn't guess wha. we saw
there.
It's the hardest country on earth
Mountains and gorges,
Everlasting snow,
Bleak and cold,
Blank solitude from sky to sky.
The old Yukon was behind,
The old Rockies ahead
We struck for the Chilkaht,
Bound for the mines,
The gold country, placer mining.
Klondyke.
we didn't run across any poulation,
Black bears we heard,
And the Arctic owl,
And once a ptarmigan.
Canada stands out agaiI st America Ut
there.
we were pretty rough gang;
Five good men in it;
The Oldest was the toughest
And led the gang;
We hadn't a gun.
When out forty days,
And about half dead,
Getting short on rations,
Stiff in every joint,
We knew what kind of country il was
Our gang had to push on;
We couldn't go back;
There's gold out at Klondyke,
And we'd die for the stuff;
We agreed to keep up the racket for
ten days more.
We were thousand miles from any
body,
SO far as we knew;
We hadn't seen a live man;
TWO men we passed, both dead.
The dead men seemed like companv.
Then in three days more,
Young Rubdut broke down,
Asked If his mother was there.
And quibbled about her;
Though he ought to have known Diff
ferent.
We Draced him up for days;

The next morning, in company with
the notary, I drove down the road till
we came to the brick wall where l
first seen Amelie de Boursons.
We entered the gates and walked to
the chateau that stood in the neglected
grounds. An old woman admitted US,
the care-taker, and at the notary's re-
quest allowed US to visit the gallery.
The notary threw back the shutters
and the sun came in and flooded the
portrait of beautiful girl whose vio-
let eyes regarded me with the same
sweet expression I had noted in my
bride of the previous evening.
"It is Amelie de Boursons," said the
notary, in a gentle voice. II have
seen this picture often, and heard the
girls pitiful story, and that IS why l
knew her last night to be a mere phan-
tom. Her father was stern, hard
man, who insisted upon her marrying
person utterly distasteful to the
young girl. She tried TO- escape, but
was captured and brought home to
confront her fate. On the wedding
morning they found her dead. She
had taken her own life. That was 40
years ago, monsieur ?"

ously at the ruby that sparkled on my
finger.

The WAsP.-The following is a
small boys composition on the wasp :
"a wasp is a six-legged bird that
lives mostly in trees and under the
caves of barns, and you cannot tain
him; he is too busy. Never stroke
his fur the wrong way, because it
makes him mad, and when wasp is
mad I don't want nothing to do with
them. He has what they call 'stin-
GER. and when he goes cut stinger-
ing, boys must keep away from him.
I leaned up agin one once when ne
was busy; and 1 jumped as much as a
feet ma had to put a mud pie on the
place. I hit wasp's nest with stone
once and the boss wasp chased me
clean across the lot so fast that when
I got over the fence I tore my pants
then ma spanked me till I wished
had let the old wasp sting me-"
"Some say wasps make honey, but
if their honey is as hot as their sting
ering, I don't want none. Pa says the
stipgering amt so bad at first as the
rekolekshun of it for few days. He
ought to know, cos me and my broth
er Ike got on the roof and poked big
nest from the peak down in the barn
yard while pa was milking"

and especially since such state of affairs
is so entirely unnecessary. 1t does not
cost any more to paint your house with
MASURY'S RAILROAD PAINT, than
it does with the most inferior "daubing"
ever used. It don't take as long to ap-
ply good paint as it does inferior, and the
dealer who sells inferior paint puts his

it's merit or to secure the difference in
profit. MASURY'S PAINT can't be
sold for less than $l.25 per gallon with
a profit, while the profit in almost all
other paints is more flexible than the
paint itself. But what do you accomplish

marked, "I've lost my lunch" He

something to drink, anyway" and he

To HIS. DEAREST LOvE"-There
was one young person possessed of a
pretty face, a kind heart and an all
absorbing desire to do something to
assist her fellow beings. After some
eloquent persuasion she obtained the
consent of her family to enter the hos
pital to study for the work of a trained
nurse.
Among the pretty enthusiasts first
patients was a young man with bro
ken arm and of an attractive appear
ance. The demure, white capped
nurse began to take an unusual inter-
est in him, and asked him one day if
there was nothing she could do for
him-no book she could read, no let
ter she could write. The patient grace
fully accepted the latter offer, and the
nurse prepared to write from his die
tation.
He began with a tender address to
his "dearest love-" and the little nurse
felt slightly embarrassed. But she
continued through the most ardent
declarations of all absorbing affection
to the end, where he wished to be sub
scribed an adorig lover for all time.
Then she folded the letter and slipped
it into its envelope.
"To whom shall I direct ?" she asked.
The wicked young man said amia-
bly, and even tenderly:
"Wbat is your name, please"
They have been married little
more than year now.

MORE LIGHT ON HIsToRY.-Mr.
Rounder (who has been reading the
Greek war news)-Actium? Let's see,
wasn't that the place where Anthony
learned the folly of depending on a
woman's fidelity? Mrs. Rounder-
No, sir, it wasn't; Actium was where
Cleopatra taught on old masher the
folly of middle-aged men in running
after other women, instead of staying
at home to support their families.
Served him right, too!

SHOWED The DUKE HIS SKILL.

During bis visit to the United States
the late Duke of Marlborough made a
host of friends. His quick eye, unas-
suming manner, and ability to grasp
easily the many-sided electrical ques-
tions, won the honest admiration OF
the practical Yankee, whose ideal OF
an English duke differed il every way
from the real live British peer. Upon
one occasion, however, the old domi-
neering spirit of the duke gained the
mastery, and he paid for the tempo
rary lapse from Republican manners
with a few good bruises, and a rather
severe shaking up Of the ducal frame.
The duke was making tour Of in
spection over one of the Chicago cable
lines, and came across cable car
driver, who was typical Yankee,
born and bred in the state of Connec-
ticut.
"Can you stop the car quickly ?'
asked his grace.
81 just reckon ye kin bet yer life I
can, Mister Duke"
Chow soon ?"
"In bout two yards" replied the
Yankee.
"Nonsense !" sharply exclaimed his
grace.
The next moment the duke was
busy picking himself out of a small
sand bank by the side of the train line
into which the abrupt stoppage of the
car had thrown him. AS he quietly
brushed himself, the Yankee smiled
