which sprung up suddenly, clear over

and two lads named Thomas Elliott and

BABY'S PHOTOGRAPH.
An Example of What the Man of the
Camera Endures.


Camera Endures.
4 young photographer, when asked
what sort of subjects presented the
greatest difficulties to him, replied
without moments hesitation, "Ba-
bies "
For instance" he continued, II
took photographs of a little 10-months-
old fellow the other day in six different
positions Yesterday l sent proofs to
his mother, and today she brought them
in.
I'm sorry, she said, without any
obvious grief, but none of these mega
tives will do.
" Not one of the six?' I inquired,
though | was prepared for what was to
follow.
" No, she said, I'm afraid not.
You see, like this one very we'll,
though, of course, it doesn't do baby
justice, but his Aunt Ellen says it's an
absolute caricature of the dear little
fellow. The one she likes l don't care
for at all, and his papa says he should
never know for whom it was intended,
1t looks so cross, and baby is such sun
shiny child.
The one he likes, this smiling one,
shouldn't consider for moment, for
1t makes baby's mouth look so much
larger than it really is.
" His grandmother chose that ons,
but as Cousin Fanny said, there's a
very queer look to the chiId's eyes in it
very queer However, she likes that
one where he's almost crying, that So
Der one. You ought to have heard ba-
by's grandfather when she said she
liked it.
He really decided the thing, for
what he said seemed SO sensible. He
asked me why didn't have some more
taken and see if there wouldn't be at
least one that would really look like
baby. Now, when can he sit again? It's
hard for me to spare the time, but you
see it is the only thing to be doneP -

MOIST WEATHER.
A Description of "A Spell of Humidity
ON che Wabash.


Talking about rainy weather." said
the westerner, 81 remember once out
in Indianapolis meeting a farmer who
took the most cheerful view Of damp
ness of anybody I ever saw. Iasked him
if they had had much rain dova on tfas
Wabash that spring.
Well, it has been a little damp, ha
answered. The day before l LEFT home
bad to hang up "a of my ducks. They
had got so water soaked that thew
couldn't swim any longer. I planted
my corn in two feet of water and L
don't expect over 30 bushels to The acre.
My wheat is looking pretty we'll, but
the sturgeon and catfish have damaged
it considerably. There was about 10
minutes sunshine one day, and !
thought would plant my potatoes, so,
loaded them on a scow and anchored
the scow IN three feet of water, when it
began to rain again.
8 | wanted to go down on the bottom
lands next the Wabash to se9. if the
grass was growing for my hay crop, but
my wife said that as we didn't have any
diving bell she'd rather I wouldn't. I
should feel kind of discouraged with all
the rain, but I've spent my odd hours
of leisure time-and the even anes, toe,
on account of staying in out OF the wet
building us an ark. If it will only
rain another week or two until l set
her ready to sail, I'm going DO take my
family out to Missouri by water for a
trip to visit QUE folks that moved off
out there because they didn't know
enough to stay in place where they
were comfortable. -" - Boston Tran

citizen. attending to his own affairs, and
strictly refraiuing from meddling in the

lies down to pleasant dreams.
Thus, another link in the chain which
unites the past with the present. has
been broken. Eighty years seems a long
time to live, but the end comes none the
less surely to us all. -
