Look at that, will your said one.

THE SWEET PEA.

Thou canst not match the lily's purity,
The royal rose bedims thy utmost glow
And far Japan has sent her fairest queen
To bid thee bow thy head and bend it low.
Thou 'rt built of common earth. No royal blood
Flows richly through thy humble, peasant
veins.
Not thine the palace Better thou shouldst
keep
Thy lowly place beside the village lanes.
And yet sweetheart, thou hast fairer place
Than princely blood or grace could give to
thee,
A quis, resting place in gentle hearts
That love thee for thy sweet simplicity.
Let highborn flowers contend to win the crown
Let mobiles strive to seat them on the throne.
Do thou, sweet flower, i'll quiet, fragrant peace,
Possess the loving hearts that are thine own.

A Syndicate to Purchase klOndikt
Claims

Late advices from London confirm
rumors that have heretofore reached this
side of the Atlantic that a financially
powerful syndicate is in process of for
nation in England, France and Germany
to buy all of the paying claims of miners
in the Klondike region. OF course this
will lead to vast amount. of speculative
valuation, but there is a claim in the
Klondike, as elsewhere, which it is i'm
possible to underestimate, and that is the
claim of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters to
the foremost place among American
remedies for liver complaint. The bill.
ous and copstipated derive prompt re-
lief from this genial Alternative, which
remedies nausea, yellowness of the skin
and eyeballs, fur upon the tongue, and
unpleasant odor of the breath that char
aoterize biliousness. Ii also remedies
and prevents malarial and rheumatic all
ments, kidney trouble, lack of stamina,
dyspepsia and nervousness. Like all
standard remedies that have established
themselves in popular favor, it deserves a
fair and persistent trial.

Maud Miller Once More.


Maud Miller in the summers heat
Raked the meadow thick with wheat.
The Judge rode slowly down the lane,
Smoothing his horses chestnut name.
"With wheat at a dollar per, said he,
"This maid is about the size for me"
Then he smiled at her, and she blushed at
him,
And over the meadow fence he clim
"Will you marry me, sweet maid?" he said.
And she told him yes, and they were wed.
Alas for maidens, alas for judge,
For old designer and wheatfield drudge!
Lord pity them both and pity us all,
For Maud didn't own the wheat at all
And the Judge remarked when he learned
the cheat,
"Don't talk to me about dollar wheat!"

INFORMATION ABOUT GREECE

1t had a population of 2.187, 2OS at the
census of 1890
It is called "HeIlas'' by its people.
The mean temperature of Greece is
"a degrees Fahrenheit, but it is hot
there in summer
No part of Greece is 40 miles from the
sea or ten from the hills.
ABOUT one-half of the population are
agrlculturists and shepherds.
1t has area of %, 900 square miles, or
less than half that of Illinois, with
about the present population Of Indiana
or less.
The Greek flag is a white cross on a
blue ground-the Bavarian colors and
the Greek cross.
Greece has few rivers and many hills.
None of the former is navigable, and
many OF the latter are fortified.
Its boundary limits were determined
by an arrangement among Great Brit
ain, France, Russia, and Turkey, con-
Guided at COnstantinOple on July p
1882, but the Turks never surrendered
all of the territory that treaty calls
for by 5000 square miles and half a
million of Greek people.
Only about 10000 of the inhabitants
speak any language other than Greek,
and only about 10000 profess any relig-
ion other than the orthodox Greek
church.
The chief characteristics of the aver
age Greek are his inQuisitiVeness, fond
ness for excitement, love of discussion,
oeslre Tor knowledge, an aptitude for
learning, and aggressive patriotism
The climate has two striking peculi-
ar1t1es-the heat in summer and the
cold in winter are far more intense
than those of any other country in the
world lying in the same latitude. Cell

"sALEsLADY" AND SERVANT.

[From the North American Review.l
In this country, where there is a
large and growing demand for all the
luXuries, and most of the necessities of
life, where there is none of the repOse
commonly found in an old civilization,
the homemaker, besides discharging
the functions of wife and mother, does
the work of hOusekeeper, nurse, nurse
~ gOverness, SeamStress, and general
homework servant. The chincks be-
tween her home duties she fills up with
a wOman's club or two. a. few church
societies, a couple of charities, and a
Sunday school class. To these she has
lately been told she should add the trif-
ling task of making domestic service a
valuable aid to society in the work of
moral reform.
The homemaker hears now. probably
for the first time, that it is due to her
that American domestic service is in it's
and her class created a home atmos
phere for servants she might by this
time have brought the kingdom Of
heaven to her very doors.
These charges, and others in the same
vein, are easily brought. Some of them
are less readily proved. 1t is safe to
begin by denying any implication that
because OF the attitude of the employ
erS service is considered degrading by
any class of the community. No self
respecting woman of the sO-called up
per classes who possesses ordinary
common sense perceives a caste dis
tinctiOn between the 'saleslady'' or fac
tory girl and the house servant Among
these themselves is it that such social
distinctions exist. The first and second
classes named consider themselves
many rungs higher on the ladder of DO
sitiOn than the ''Hving-out girl They
will not hesitate to acknowledge it
Said a typewriter who had been fore
ed by hard times to take a place as
nurse in a private family. Z wouldn't
for worlds have any of my friends at
home know that I had sunk so low as
to go into service. They would never
respect me again" She was an Ameri-
can. A girls club in a New England
town was nearly broken up a few years
ago because an intelligent Well bred
Scotch girl who was in service was adj
mftted through a misunderstanding. To
save the club, composed chiefly OF shop
girls, she had to go. Another potent
influence against domestic service is
the diSesteem in which it is held by
many young men of the mechanic class
who have themselves risen a little in
the world and who openly declare their
aversion to marrying Onyone who is
only a common servant"
There is little hope that a better class
of girls will enter service until these
conditions are changed and the SER
wants and their friends respect the
work.
