A Nights Experienoe.

Il had On odd experience a few years
ago while making a solitary walking
tour through the White Mountains"
said a member of the Appalachian
Mountain Club at one of their recent
reunions. Il was belated one night,
and stopped at a small farmhouse
where 1 was most Hospitality enter
tanned. The family was large, and
inferred that the room given me was
not always a spare one. 1t was on the
first floor and had two beds In It.
There was no lock on the door, nor
for that matter was there any fasten-
ing, save an old-fashloned latch, on the
outside door, a state Of things not I'M
common in country towns throughout
New England.
II had had a stiff days walk, and no
sooner did I sink down on the soft
feather bed than 1 fell into q sound
sleep.
"Along IN the night I was awakened
by a violent struggle in the room.
Groans, shrieks, blows thumps re-
sounded. The room was as dark as
pitch. What was lt7 Murder? It GER
tainly sounded like men engaged in
mortal combat.
Il was broad awake and sitting up in
bed in an instant I was alert, ready
for action, and not little alarmed, but
1t seemed the part of wisdom to keep
still and await developments.
ffATao enrra4o vrrnnf
Blows, gasps, stihed screams and
bumpings as Of some ones head on the
floor increased my uneasiness. There
was a heavy fall, and the next moment
the clothing of my bed was jerked off.
81 gave one bound into the middle of
the room, and shouted for help. The
farmer came rushing to the door, burst
into the room, and asked what was
wrong.
"Silence prevailed; the tumult had
ceased. A candle was lighted and
young man was discovered sitting on
the edge of the other bed, and looking
very sheepish.

What IL Is Doing.
The Library League Of Cleveland Is
n most interesting Institution, and It IS
nleasant to see that It Is extending 70
other cities. All children OF schooi ase
are eligible to It, and there are no inith,
ton fees, and no membership dues u l,
in many cases the members obtain inc
use Of public library books at an carrier
age than they otherwise would. Iney
wear a distinctive badge, and sign d
pledge which binds them to hahule
hooks carefully-not to mark them or
turn down the corners Of leaves OF "
misuse them IN any way.
In Cleveland, at the end OF nine
months from the organization OF the so
ciety. fifteen thousand children had
been enrolled, and the league had ma"
a decidedly improving effect upon Tue -o
patronage Of the public library.
To most people one Of the Interest,"
ing things about this league IS the "ap-
neal of the book" which is printed on
the book-mark used by the society. 1t
Is the pathetic, and in most cases eifec-
tive, request Of the book to be Well
treated by the reader. 1t runs as rol-
lows;
Please don't handle me with dirty
hands. I shonld feel ashamed to be
seen when the next boy borrowed me-
Or leave me out in the rain. Books
can catch cold as well as children.
Or make marks on me with your pen
or pencil. It would spoil my looks.
Or lean your elbows on me when you
are reading me. 1t hurts.
Or open me and lay me face down Oh
the table, You wouldn't like to be
treated so.
Or put between my leaves a pencil or
anything thicker than a single sheet Of
paper. 1t would strain my back.
Whenever you are done reading me-
If you are afraid of losing your place,
don't turn down the corner of one of
my leaves, but have a neat little book
mark to put in where you stopped, and
then close me and lay me down on my
side, so that can have good, COM
( Portable rest.
Remember that l want to visit a
great many other little boys after you
are done with me. Besides, 1 may
meet you again some day, and you
would be sorry to see me looking old
and torn and soiled. Help me to keep
fresh and clean, and l will help you to
be happy.-YOuth's Companion.

WOULD ! WE'RE A BOY AGAIN.

Oh, would were boy again,
When life seemed formed Of sunny
years
And all the heart then knew Of pain,
Was wept away in transient tears,
When every tale hope whispered then,
Ny fancy deemed was only truth.
Oh, would that / could know again
The happy visions Of my youth.
IT'S vain to mourn that years have shown
How false these fairy visions were,
Or murmur that mine eyes have known,
The burden Of fleeing tear;
But still the heart will fondly cling
To hopes no longer priced as truth, :,
And memory still delights to bring ~
The happy visions OF my youth.
