AS l thought Of n golden June
And lovers who sang, Love never dies
While boats drift under the moon"
For white wings come and white sails go
Drifting out into the dawn,
But memory comes with refluent flow,
And It's true as ever 1t was. l know.
That love lives on and on
1t comes with the touch or the clasp of a
hand,
Or the glance OF strangers eye,
Or kindly act In a foreign land,
Or the CLEAN OF n starry sky,
Or drifting boat on a silver lake,
Or lily you touch with your oar,
Or the sound Of the winds and waves that
break
In melody OIL the shore.
But as long as white wings come and go
Or drift In the rosy dawn,
While memory comes with refluent flow,
1t Is true rs ever 1t was, I know,
That love lives on and on.

Eleven.Year-OId Preacher.

Cleretta Nora Avery, an eleven-year-
old coIored maiden, preached in Boston
recently to a large audience in St. Pau's
church. There is no question about her
age for she shows at the first glance that
she is young child. She is small of
stature, with head of abnormal shape.
Her pretty olive face is quiet and
thoughtful. Her eyes are large, brown
and expressive. The pulpit had been
removed from its customary place, and
in its stead the child laid her own little
Bible upon it. She selected a text and
spoke for thirty-fve minutes with no
apparent effort and with a remarkable
command of lar guage.-Boston Trans

The Treatment of Rurns.

Physicians, surgeons and hospital
attendants are never weary of expert
menting on the treatment of burns.
They seem to believe that there can
be no simple remedy for the results of
accidents of this sort, ard therefore
there must be all sorts of chemicals
and compounds and ado about burns.
They do not appear to know or will
not believe that simple paste of fresh
lard and wheat -four is the very best
possible dressing for a burn, that 1t
will in almost in every case restore the
burned portion to its natural condi-
ton, and that In ninety.nine cases out
of one hundred there will be no scar.

Wonders OF Raalbec.

Baaibec or Baalbek ia the name given
a ruined city lying in ancien- Cele.
Syria, forty-ive miles northwest oil
Damascus. There is nothing particu-
larly remarkable about ruined city
being found in the locality mentioned,
but the size of the blocks of stone used
by the ancient builders of this particu-
lar city is something that has puzzled
the modern engineers since the day
when Baalbec was first made the Mecca
of the Oriental traveller. There are inn
mense stones on every side of the visit
or to this ancient pile of ruins, but the
three most remarkable blocks-said to
be largest ever used In the construction
of building-are in wall back of the
Temple of Baal These imm snse stones
are respectively 81, 60 and 81 feet in
length, and each is Is feet in thickness,
but the most wonderful thing in con-
nection with them is the fact that they
are at place In the wall IS feet in
height from the ground How these
immense blocks of granite were eyer

a WONDERFUL Eject.

One of the most daring bits of color
ing on record in the way of household
furnishing is the dining room of the
artist whistler. 1t may be said to be a
symphony In yellow, or in blue and yell
low. All of the walls are painted blue,
the blue being of a decidedly greenish
hue. The cornice Is painted in stripes
of dark green, blue and yellow, the cell.
ing being pale yellaw. The serbase is
the color of a ripe lemon, as are the
doors and all the wood about the win
dows and the high wooden maptel. The
hearthstone is also yellow, and about the
fireplace is a set of lemon-colored tiles
bordered with blue. Two sets of shelves.
one on either side of the Fireplace, are
painted yellow. The woodwork of the
cane-seated chairs Is yellow and the seat
blue. The floor Is covered with a blue
and yellow Chinese mating, cubic pat
tern. This is all very cheap sort of
furnishing, but here the cheapness ends.
The curtains are of rare needle work, of
various shades of yellow upon fine white
linen, which fall unconfined to the floor. |
The shelves mentioned hold bits of |
rare blue china; on the mantel are Jap !
anese curios. blae, sea green and yollow. !
A half opened fan is in one corner.
There are 70 mirrors and no pictures.
Opposite the fireplace hang midway be-
tween the foor and the ceiling two
japanese flower pots, each holding
FELLOW primrose. The table service is
Il old blue. Who but an artist would
lare undertake such a scheme of color,
nd who but an artist would succeed
