Three little girls are weary
Weary OF books and OF play:
Sad is the world and dreary--
Slowly the time slips away.
Six little feet are aching,
Bowed is each little head:
fet they are UP and shaking =
When there is mention OF bed.
hraNeiy they laugh and chatter,
Just for "A minute or two,
Then. when they end their clatter,
Sleep comes quickly to WOO.
Slowly their eyes are closing,
Down again drops every head
Three little maids are doing.
Though they're not ready for bed.
1hat is their method ever
Night after night they protest.
claiming they're sleepy never
Never In need OF their rest. 4
Noading and almost dreaming. :.
Drowsily each little head y
Sun is forever scheming
Merely TO keep out OF bed.

The Age OF American Generals.

Although General Miles is a younger
man than most Of the general officers in
the service at this time he is much
older than any Of the men who COM
rnanded in the civil war. He is SO,
while Shafter is 62, Merritt 81, Brooke
60, Wheeler 62, Lee 62, Otis 60 and
Hawkins 69. In fact, there is not even
a brigadier Of note except Wood who is
under so years of age.
At the outbreak Of the civil war, on
the other hand, not one Of the men who
were to gain distinction in it was 90.
Grant in 1861 was only SO, Sherman
was Al, Sheridan 80, Schofeld 80, Han

Queen victoria's Money.

Queen Victoria is the first sovereign
Of England who ever had anything to
leave, says The Chautauquan. All of
her predecessors upon the throne be-
queathed fine assortments Of debts to
their posterity, which parliament was
called upon to pay, and while Victoria
permitted the people to be taxed to set
tie the private obligations of her uncles,
George Nv and William ~, she herself
paid the debts of her father, the Duke
Of Kent, with full interest, and has sew
eral times settled the liabilities Of the
Prince of Wales to the extent Of several
millions of dollars.
There is a great deal Of gossip and
speculation in England as to the dispo-
sition the queen has made Of her i'm
mense property. The bulk of it will un-
doubtedly go to the Prince Of Wales,
and it is supposed that her best estates
are entailed upon her successors with
the condition that they shall never be
mortgaged or alienated in any way. 1t
is also assumed that the palace at o.
borne and o liberal amount of bonds
and leases will be left to her fayorite
daughter, the Princess Beatrice, who is
also expecting to inherit the fortune Of
Empress Eugene, whose son, the i'll
fated prince imperial, was to have been
her husband. Princess Louise, the wife
of the Marquis of Lorne, has no chill
dren, and her husband will inherit the
immense estates of the Duke Of Argyll,
so that she will be well provided for.

Under Gibraltar Strait.

M. Berlier, who has built two tun.
nels under the Seine, proposes now to
tunnel the strait of Gibraltar. He will
let England peacefully watch the surface
of the sea while he will establish safe
communication underneath the water
with or without the permission Of Eng
land. He would not cross at the mar
rowest part of the strait, but leave the
European coast at the bay of Vaqueros
and land in Africa at Tangier. The
distance, including the approaches,
would be about al kilometers, and the
greatest depth of the water on this line
would be 400 meters. At the narrowest
part of the strait it is 600 meters.
The tunnel could be built in seven
years. during which time the railroad
along the coast of Morocco to connect
with the Algerian system could be
built. The cost would be 225, 900, 600
francs and on this capital, according to
wise calculations sufficient interest
would be returned by the traffic
(d'apres de savants calculs serait sufisa-
ment remunere). 1t is reported also that
NJ. Berlier is building several castles in
Spain.-Railroad Gazette.

Ice Cream In New York.

"Ten million quarts Of ice cream are
annually sold in New York, :" said a
prominent manufacturer, "most Of
which, as you may surmise, is con-
sumed during the hot weather. At pres
ent the daily consumption is no less
than 65, 900 quarts per day. Occasion
ally the figures soar much higher. They
ascend with the mercury. 1t is nothing
for one of the three or four great ice
cream manufacturers to dispose Of &c.
900 quarts day in this weather. In
winter there is great dropping off in
the consumption. Not more than II, 900
quarts make the daily average
1.-THE value of the annual output is
some hundreds Of thousands over the
$4,000, 900 MARIA sum equivalent to
the entire commercial activity Of many
small inland cities. Of course when I
quote these figures I take into consider
alton all the small dealers who manu-
facture for their own USE
"The capital directly invested in ice
cream making in New York is in the
neighborhood of $1,000, O00. This bust
ness gives employment directly and in.
directly to at least 5000 persons. -

Emile lola has been drawn out By
young German woman, who has been
writing to several authors of books not
intended for the young, such as Ibsen
and Hauptmann, to ask which of their
works they think suitable for young

HYoung girls should read only what
their parents allow them to. An author
