A CURIOUS THING.

Sunbeam came to my house one day.
SIS there any place here for shadows to hidef
They tell me that shadows are cold and gray,
But before can catch them they run away.
If find one, I'll cheer him up" he cried.
He searched about through the great, BID
house,
A dear little fellow, warm and bright
In closets, in corners, in mammals hair,
In grandpa's face-and, oh, everywhere
But wherever he went it was only light.
Now, Love looked into my house that day.
"Could Hate in here be hiding his headp
They tell me that Hate is ugly and bad
Perhaps If we found him we'd make him glad
On, please may look and try?" he said.
Love met Sunbeam hunting about.
"Have you found your shadows, Friend Sun
beam?' ''Nay,
Not I, said Sunbeam. "They don't live here. -
"Nor Hate, " said Love, "for this house is dear.
Let's look for place to abide alway''
Sweetheart Lucy came running in,
Bright as robin just out of bed.
Sunbeam sprang to her eyes so brown,
Love in her warm heart nestled down.
"We've the incest place in the world" they
said
Now, the curious thing, which haven't told
Is something never could quite make out,
For never shadow can show his head,
And Hate, think, must be really dead
When my little Lucy is playing about.

Physics For Bad Temper.

DR.. Lauder Brunton is applying a new
principle in Observation-Disclosures
drugs to cure the irritability of temper
commonly associated with such diseases
as govt and heart disease. Writing In The
Practitioner, be points out that "explo-
sions of temper which occur on very slight
proyocation ara really due to condition
produced by an accumulation of small ir-
ritations which have gradually worked up
the patient into state Of excitement
which vents itself in an explosion quite
out Of proportion to it's apparent cause
Continuous physical discomfort also has
the same effect. but even without obvious
discomfort the accumulation Of abnormal
substances, such as uric acid, may also
produce irritability Of temper. At any
rate, in cases Of govt 20 grains Of bicar-
Donate of potash with 10 OF 20 Of bromide
Of potassium, taken when the feeling of
irritability comes on, frequently soothes it,
and II taken when some. irritating occur
renee has taken place or some depressing
news is heard 1t appears to take away the
sting Of either. In some cases of cardiac
disease also the bromide may be given with
sal!sylatc of soda with good success"

there was another yell and a crash. He
had only three feet to fall, but as he struck
on his head and fell over like sturdy oak
the cook in the kitchen dropped the dish
pan and jumped for the back yard. Five
minutes later Mr.. Bowser heard himself
asking:
"Where am l, and what has happened?'
"You are right under your performing
bar and have performed he heard Mrs.
Bowser answer
Am / killed."
sob, no! On the contrary, you are no
longer in any danger of being withered
up. Take long Whit of this eamphor
and lie quiet for a few minutes"
"What-what was trying to do?" he
whispered between his shifts.
81 think you were trying to skin the
cat as they call it, but the cat skun you.
Let me help you down stairs and get you
into bed"
Next morning Mr.. Bowser got up with
a lop in each shoulder, limp in either leg
and his back bumped up, but he was
game. When Mrs Bowser asked him how
he felt, lG replied:
'Same as usual WhyS"
81 didn't know but the fall hurt you"
"Fall-falll What fall?'
"From your performing bar last night.
Don't you remember"
''No, ma am, don't, he stifily replied.
IF you allow yourself to become bilious
and have the nightmare, you need not
bother me with your fantasies. It's my
opinion that you'd better do some perform
ing on the gas and coal bills and not be so
reckless in your household expenses"

Sweating like a Titan hurting
Do~I.a - ,,,nrI, aks =. =. k-4r,

Rocks at everlasting foes;
Tanning with ten cent palm leaf,
Which forever faster goes;
Collarless and cuffless, sitting
By his desk at midnight, when
In the stead Of ink Of poets,
Drops Of sweat run down his pen;
hopping up his alabaster
Brows of Virgil wreathed in bays
Mostly made Of perspiration
Grown on juicy August days;
Yanking off his outer garments,
Dripping freely at each pore,
Feeling his perspiring fancies
Soaking in his mental store;
Pouring drinks of cooling SAVIOR
Deep into his sizzling soul,
Counting comfort in bathtub,
learning for an arctic goal.
There he sits and swears and swelters
While he writes appropriate rhyme
For the magazines and others
Which have spreads at Christmas time

would prove fatal, but the men, who
were dripping with blood, kept at 1T to
the forty-fifth round, when both fell

How . Donkey Found . Nine.

The history Of mine discoveries in
the West is full of strange and anus
log incidents. Many of the most cele-
brated mines or lodges have been
found by accident. Some of these &C.
oidental discoveries are laughable in
the extreme. One of them occurred
in connection with the discovery Of
one Of the richest mines In the C9ur
d'Alene country In Idaho. In this
case common donkey or jAckass or
..bnrro" as one chooses to term it,
was credited with the finding of the
mine.
The Norther Pacific Railways finely
illustrated tourest book, Wonderland
~. has q chapter ON mining in the
West, In which the incident alluded
to is given. 1t shows how, from slight
or trivial things, great results may
flow. There are also articles on yell
lowstone Park, Alaska, cattle raising
etc. BY sending six cents in postage

The Guest Kills His Benefact0r and
shoots His Wife, Servant Girl and
Hired Man-Esoapes After Rob-
hing the House.

Milwaukee, May What may yet
prove quadruple murder occurred at
the farm home Of Alexander Harris,
about five miles south of Wankesha,
early Friday morning, the victims be-
ing Mr.. Harris, his wife, hired girl and
hired man. The crime was committed,
it is supposed, by farm hand named
William Pouch, who had been sheltered
by the farmer over night. The dead and
wounded are: Alexander Harris, aged
about As years, killed outright; Mrs.
Harris, aged A years, may recover;
Helen Vesbaeh, fatally wounded; Nell
son McHolt, probably fatally wounded.
Harris and His Hired Man shot.
Pouch arose about five o'clock in
the morning and went to the yard,
where Harris and his hired man were
milking the COWS. After pleasantly
wishing them good morning he sudden
~ drew revolver and shot them, kill
ing the farmer and fatally wounding
the hired man. He then walked leis-
urely to the kitchen. There he met Mrs.
Harris and the hired girl and chatted
pleasantly with them for few minutes.
He said Mr.. Harris would not be in for
few minutes and that he would par
take of his breakfast at once. The wom-
en- waited upon the murderer, who
seemed to relish the meal.
After concluding his breakfast Pouch
arose from the table and started to
walk toward the door, but suddenly
wheeled around and before the woman
realized what was about to happen he
shot Mrs. Harris in the breast and then
fred at the hired girl. The farmers
wife fell to the floor with severe
wound. The hired girl has chance OF
recovery.
Murderer Rides on ON His Wheel.
After finishing his bloody work the
murderer mounted bicycle and rode
away. He started in a southwesterly
direction over the Mukwonago road and
the supposition is that he headed for
Burlington. A posse of farmers are In
hot pursuit.
The farmers who reside in the vicinity
Of the scene of the murder are greatly
excited and enraged and should they get
hold of the man before the officers he
may not live to tell of the crime. They
openly vow that they will lynch the
murderer.
The superstition of the authorities is
that the man is either insane or that he
committed the terrible deed in order to
hide evidence of another crime. The
manner in which the murders were
committed show plainly that he had
been deliberate in arranging his plans
and had carried them out to the letter.
1t transpires TINT after shooting his
victims, Pouch went upstairs and robbed
the house. This is the only known mo-
tive of the crime.
Mr.. Harris was one Of the best-known
farmers in the county and was quite
well-to-do. He had resided on the farm
where the murder occurred for the past
IL years and had always been on the
best of terms with his neighbors.
Pouch had worked for him some time
during the summer of 1895 and nothing
occurred so far as known to cause any
enmity between them. :.
