It was related by Mrs. Beecher that
during their courtship Mr.. Beecher once
dropped into poetry" and wrote a few
lines of verse teeming with affection
for his sweetheart. Bp. the verses were
always kept sacred " Mrs. Beecher,
and nothing could win them from her.
One day Mr.. and Mrs. Beecher were
in the office of Robert Bonner, the pub
Usher.
why don't you write poem, Beech
err" said Mr.. Bonner.
He did once" said Mrs Beecher.
Recite it for me, won't you, Mrs
Beecher!''
But the eyes Of the great preacher
were riveted ON his wife, and she knew
that he meant silence.
"Come, said Mr.. Bonner, "I'll give
you $4,000 if you will recite that poem
to me" addressing Mrs Beecher.
why, it ram quickly said Mrs.
Beecher.
"Eunice," simply said Mr.. Beecher
And although Robert Bonner Offered
to double the sum first offered he nevei
got the poem from Mrs. Beecher. 1t haC

Yet even that has not yet discounted
the manner in which Yyette Guilbert
was advertised last year, At that time,
during the racing season, long light
overcoats became the fashion in France
those startling affairs that reached to
the heels, and only became slight and
elegant figures, although in Paris at
that time almost every smart man who
could wore one, Never more than half
n dozen ever came to Boston. At that
time one constantly met on the streets
In Paris dozen well-dressed men
wearing these coats. They wore silk
hats and patent feathers, aud had field
glasses swung over their shoulders.
They looked so clean, SO happy, so alto
! gether attractive and correct that
everyone stared at them-and envied
them-until the leader shouted out
"Yvette Gullbert," and the rest of the
crowd responded '"To-night-a o'clock
mt La Scala" The snap being giver
away, the crowd marched on, LAUGHING
and TESTING, to attract another hearing

Feed for Farm Hor.e..

Equal parts of old oats and shelled
corn, mixed with little bran, and
made slightly moist, is strong,
healthy feed. Idle horses may be given
two quarts at a feed, and then turned
to pasture. Horses at hard work should
be fed four quarts at feed. Feed oat
hay If new hay is fed, salt it. New
oats should not be fed too early. Let
them dry out few weeks first.
Horses should be sailed twice a week,
giving tablespoonful at a time. Curry
the horses morning and night, and
wash the shoulders off with cola water
when they come in from work, and rub
dry. If the skin is rubbed off by the
collar, rub on little rock oil, and then
dust with air-slacked lime. This will
harden the skin, and, if the collar fits
properly, there will be no sore shout
ders. The collars should be cleaned of
every morning before being put on the
horses.

bullet ripping through the cab cover

The engine was now tearing down the
track at full speed. Polly knew that 1t

John Burroughs says: "Outside of the
city limits the great point Of interest
to the rambler and lover of nature is
the Rock creek region. Rock creek is "A
large, rough, rapid stream which has
Its source in the interior of Maryland
and flows into the Potomac between
Washington and Georgetown. Its course
for five or six miles out of Washington
is marked by great diversity of scenery.
Flowing i'll deep valley, which now

overhanging rocks and high, precipitous
headlands, for the most part wooded

there sweeping and hurrying around a
certain bend or over a rocky bed; re.
ceiving at short intervals small runs
and spring rivulets, which open up Wis
tas and outlooks to the right and left
of the most charming description-Rock
creek has an abundance of all the ele-
ments that make up not only pleasing
but wild and rugged scenery. There is
perhaps not another city in the Union
that has ON its very threshold so much
natural beauty and grandeur, such a,
men seek for in remote forests anG
mountains. A few touches of art would
convert this whole region, extending
from Georgetown to what is known al
Crystal springs, not more than two
miles from the present state depart
ment, into a park unequaled by any
