~ l.. NJ. P:
Twas quaint old corner cupboard
My friend unlocked one day.
Where the choicest bits Of china
Were safely laid away;
Ard i wondered such things OF beauty
Were hidden there from sight
Things that were surely made
For use and our delight
But she said: They are all too precious
Too fragile for daily use.
Too fran for careless touches,
TOO frail for the least abuse
We can keep them here in safety.
shut In from the dust and dirt.
Shut In from meddlesome fingers.
From aught that can harm or hurt
But when on some festal day
We bring out the brightest and best
Then carefully take them away
And place them among the rest
And their beauty shines so bright
II certainly does atone
For all of the many days
They are shut In here alone"
Then | thought Of the darkened rooms.
Where so many are shut away
From the pleasures and joys of earth
And the cheerful light Of day.
The Master may think them too precious
For the crowded walks OF life
SO He keeps them safely hidden
From its trouble and It's strife.
But when at the feast above
He gathers His Jewels bright,
He'll place them honored OF ALL
Where they'll shine in His glorious Light:
Their names He Will proudly own.
Is II surely not proof OF His love
His keeping them shut in here?

BLIND PEOPLE IN SPAIN.
The Number Is Very Large and There
Is No Effort to Re-
duce 1t.

The large proportion of blind people
III Spain has attracted attention since
the beginning of the present century.
The subject is again brought up by an
article by Privy Councillor Hirschberg
in the German Medical Weekly giving
the results of his recent observation
in Spain, where he attended the hy-
gienic congress. He says the streets
of Madrid swarm with blind beggars;
the further south he went the more
blind he met. The proportion in Spain
as given in the census of 1860 is II to
10000, against eight to nine in Ger
many, France and England; but that
figure is considered undoubtedly false
by continental authorities. More re-
cent figures give 14.s. The chief causes
Of blindness in Spain are infamma-
ton of the eyes of infants, granula-
ton and smallpox. The widespread
fatalistic attitude of the sick, the lack
OF governmental oversight and the
small attention paid to disease of the
eye operate to increase the number
of the blind in Spain. There is not a
single public eye hospital in Spain, ac-
cording to DR.. Hirschberg; only wards
in general hospitals and private insti-
tutions. Instruction in diseases of the
eye is neglected in the medical schools,
though there is hope that the new med
ical faculty in Barcelona, which has
been organized within two years, may
work an improvement in ophthalmol-
ogY in Spain.

SAILOR HATS TRYING.
The Low-Crowned, Aforementioned
Ones Worn This Year Arc
UnbecominE.

The lcw-crowned, narrow-brimmed
straw sailor of the season Is going to
rob the summer girl of much of her
beauty, says the New York Commercial
Advertiser. Several dozen women of
all degrees of good looks fitted sailor
hats on at one of the big shops and
gazed disapproyingly in the mirror at
themselves. There were oil sorts of
sailor hats on the tables and counters,
low-crowned, narrow-brimmed ones Of
coarse straw, higher crowned, broader
brimmed ones of fine straw, and war;
ious versions of each variety. The
saleswoman declared that they We're
all this years model. The customers
murmured that only the low-crowned,
broad-brimmed hats were new. Then
they continued fitting on and frown-
ing at themselves and smiling derisive-
ly at each other.
II never saw such fright" said one
young woman, as she resumed her own
fowery hat after vainly searching for
a becoming sailor among the low
crowned, coarse affairs. II shall hunt
up my last years hat and wear that.
It is pretty and makes me look we'll,
anyway"
"But these are considered very styl-
ish," said the saieswoman, placing a
little hat on her own head, where II
looked about the size Of a postage
stamp. 'They are made like boys
hats, and boys hats and shoes and col.
lars are the models for the best styles
this season, you know"

THE SALE OF STAMPS
Circular of Instructions Issued to
All Collectors.
Efforts to Remove All Cause of Cam-
plants of Insufficient Supply-Eo
Prevent Sales for Speculn-
tive Purposes.

The commissioner of internal rev.
enue has issued the following circular
to all collectors regarding the sale of
internal revenue stamps:
In view of the large number of
stamps that have been placed in the
hands of collectors, the continued COM
plants of insufficient supply received
from taxpayers indicate that such
stamps are being bound up for specu-
lative purposes in some instances, and
in others that there has been a super
abundance of precaution to secure
an ample supply.
Collectors should exercise great care
in selling adhesive stamps, to make
sure that fair distribution of the
stamps needed by the taxpayers is not
prevented by either cause above indi-
Gated.
In no case should the purchasers be
permitted to take more than weeks
supply, and where the purchaser is To-
Gated near the collectors Office only a
supply sufficient for two or three days
should be sold.
Complaints reach this Office that in
some instances collectors and depu-
ties have refused to sell less than an
entire sheet of adhesive stamps to n
purchaser. This practice must be dis
continued, as tax-paying purchasers
must be supplied with what they may
need.
Inquiries are received in regard to
agencies for the sale of these stamps
by postmasters, banks, etc. In all
such cases they have been referred to
the collectors of their respective dis
tricts, who should advise them that
they can procure the stamps at dis
count of one per cent. of the face
value on each purchase amounting to
500 or more.
The only arrangements that will be
made for the sale of adhesive stamps
are those above indicated-namely,
the sale in quantities of 500 worth or
more to parties willing to take them
on the terms fixed by law for resale
to taxpayers and sale directly to tax
payers by the several collectors and
their stamp deputies.

DONE WITH A RIFLE.
One Hundred and Fifty
Two Bullets.

Adolph Toepperwein, San Antonio's
marvellous young rife shot, lately per-
formed another of his astonishing
feats, reports the Philadelphia Record.
With .22-caliber rifle he stood at q
distance of 20 feet from double thick
ness of heavy paper, about three feet
long by two feet wide, and shot on it
the outlines of an Indians head. It
took exactly 152 shots to do the trick
1t was free-hand drawing, as the figure
was not traced on the paper before
hand. This made the feat especially
difficult, as "Tep" had to place every
shot with reference to where its prede-
cessor had gone, and where all the fol-
lowing shots were to go. In other
words, he had to have every detail of
the drawing" planned out and con-
stantly in his minds eye while he was
shooting. One shot fired fraction of
an inch wild would have spoiled the
whole picture.
1t is not clear whether or no this
marksman is member of Roosevelt's
regiment Of rough riders. If he isn't
he ought to be.
