A MAGIC GIFT.

Verses acknowledging some flowers sent him
IN gratitude for reading he had given in aid
Of charity.l
l always believed the fairy tales,
For with every year grew
/ found that more and more of them
We're the truest kind of true.
And of all the tales I knew and loved
In the days when l was SMALL
You have chosen, to prove it's truth to me,
The prettiest one of all
The tale Of the maid whose lips dropped pearls,
And roses and all things sweet,
Because she was simply civil and kind
To fairy she CHANGED to meet.
Why shouldn't it happen to girls and boys
In the days when fairies flew,
Since a few poor latter day words of mine
Have been turned into flowers by your
H. G. Bunner in Scribner's.

Bismarck Paid.

In the duchy Of Lauenburg, from which
Bismarck takes his title, 1t Is custom
during the harvest time, when a person
passes through field where the corn Is
being cut, for the reapers to stop, bind a
few ears Of corn on the visitors arm and
demand money for his ransom. This hap
pened to Prince Bismarck and his son, and,
as the old statesman has a great reverence
for old customs, he cheerfully paid the
ransom for both.

Tours to Florida.

No district in America presents, during tho
Winter season, so many varied attractions as
the State of Florida. Besides its delightful
climate, which to one escaping from the cold
and unhealthful changes OF the North seems
almost ethereal, it is pre- eminently u land oil
sport and pleasure. Along it eleven hundred
miles of salt water coast and in its twelve hun
dred fresh water lakes are fish of almost every
conceivable variety, from the lGigrai DRY tribes
common to Northern waters To the tarpon,
pompanO, and others of more tropical char
acter. Nowhere in all our broad land can the
angler find greater variety OF game or better
sport.
Here also the most enthusiastic hunter finds
safety. Deer, turkeys. hears, panthers and
wild cats roam at large through the more
sparSely settled regions, while brus of all kinds
may be found in abundance through MT tie
State. The more novel sport of alligator and
manatee hunting may also be INDUCED i'll by
the more adventurous tourist.
With IT'S matcheSS climate, its orange groves,
tS rivers and lakes, its boating and bathing, il.
fishing and hunting, and it's extensive forests
riorIua presents unrivalCd attractions for the
vaietudnarian. the lover Of nature the sports
man, and the explorer.
TO this attractive state the PennSy lVanil
Railroad Company has arranged four person
ally-conducted tours during the season OF S97,
leaving by special train January 26, February
8 and 23. and March .. The first three tours

the Atlantic. no matter how smooth the waterV
expanse, without sea sickness yOu are-well,

have spent their lives on the ocean waves. who
''sea legs on" suffer now and then from sea
sickness in very tempestuous weather. Sea
captains, tourists, commercial travellers and
yatchsmen say that there is no finer safeguard
against nausea than Hostetters Stomach
Bitters, and it has been equally reliable as q
preventive by invalids who travel by steam
boat and railroad, and who sometimes suffer
as much in those conveyance ocean travc-
lers do in steamships. Biliousness. constipa-

or unwholesome or unaccustomed food or
water, always yield to the Bi,ters speedily.

Rumsey, the first inventor of the Steam
