CURRENT VERSE.
The Laughing Cure

It is an ancient saying,
And one that's always pat,
That If you laugh most heartily
You surely will grow fat.
But, ah, from far Bologna
A man, discarding pills,
Now teaches us that laughter
VIII overcome all ills!
Thus, for bronchial troubles
Let laughter rule the day.
'Tis a grand eXpectorant,
So give II fullest sway.
No matter If your friends may think
You're just "a little OFF,"
You'll turn their jibes and jeers aside
BY giving them "the cough"'
And, to corroborate the fact.
'Tis said that doctors ancient
With feathers tickled boys and girls
And many an older patient;
Scurvy, nephritic collie.
Dread pleurisy-'tis sure
Through steady laughter. loud and long
Were jollied to a cure!
Fancy how a man would seem,
In laughing moods to shake,
Writhng in the agony
OF fearful stomach ache!
Or. when dread pleurisy would rack
The frame with awful pain,
How could a struggling sinner then
A laughing fit obtain?

a weight OF responsibility the heaviest
ever put upon an American afloat In
volving the control of nearly hundred
millions of dollars worth Of property
scattered throughout the North At
lantic ocean and Caribbean sea and
the lives OF many thousands of sailors
and marines, perfected with PAINS
taking accuracy the arrangements
which resulted in the utter destruction
OF Cervera's formidable squadron OFF
the coast at Santiago. A caprice Of
destiny kept this conscientious officer
from the glory of immediate personal
participation in a fight that came rs
the inevitable elimination of his long
vigil and extraordinary preparation;
and an imperfect snap judgment Of
public opinion for a time withheld from
him and gave to another credit which
was his by every right of custom, de-
serving and justice.
But the return of Dewey, signalizing
the conclusion of the navy's serious
duty in connection with the late war,
and inaugurating, as we believe, new
era in the relationship Of public opinion
toward naval affairs ought to be an
opportune time for the righting of the
wrong which has been done to Dewey's
colleague in great responsibility sue
cessfully administered the commander
of the North Atlantic fleet whose San
tiago fight was to Manila's victory rs
Gettysburg was to Vicksburg, Rear
Admiral now, Vice Admiral to be, WILL
lam T. Sampson. We say this all the
more earnestly because conscious Of
having been one of those once be-
trayed into unfair treatment of this
ill-requited man.

Dewey and Sampson.

VERY HONOR paid to Admir-
" al Dewey is, of course, de-
IL served; and in honoring him
the American people simply
pay tribute to qualities and virtues
that underly their national develop
ment, 1t is in spirit not unlike the
devotion manifested by them for the
flag, which symbolizes to them all
that is great and good in democratic
government. The flag is an abstract
symbol whereas Dewey is a vital per-
sonification, and human nature warns
to him as it does to all great men who
make successful appeal to its better
instincts and its ideals.
But it seems to us that the very en-
thusiasm of the greeting OF Dewey
adds by contrast to an injustice, as
yet unremedied. of which American
public sentiment, misled by false re-
port. has been guilty in fact, If not in
intent toward another officer of our
navy who also personifies some of the
most valuable qualities in the Ameri-
can character and who has done a SER
vice to the nation still most shame
fully obscured. We refer, of course, TO
the successful commander OF the larg-
est naval force ever assembled under
the American flag, the man who laid
the plans and for anxious weeks, under

name. The first pay he ever received for
a Doem was a suit of clothes from the
late George Harding, Of the Indianapolis
Herald. About 1876 Riley went East and
was welcomed by Holmes, Whittier and
Longfellow. The New England newspa-
pers made much OF his visit, and when
he returned he was hero.
II can remember" said an old Journal
man the other day, when Riley, with
his smooth, boyish face, slender figure,
clad In sacerdotal garb, used to come
around the office and sit on my desk and
dash OF nonsence verses in the same cop
per-plate, microscopic, handwriting that
he uses today. Elijah Halford, now a
paymaster, with the rank Of major, in the
United states army, and President Harri-
sons private secretary, was the editor.
and It used to be Rilay's chief delight to
submit some Of his most meaningless
jingles to Halford for the editorial page.
The Major. who never had the slightest
sense OF humor spent many a weary hour
trying to comprehend them.
o" You'd better draw diagram TO go
with this he would say Then a shout
Of laughter from the boys would show
him that there was n Joke loose some
where, and he would retire into his office
to avoid It,"

Loafng Day.

The lazy boy sprawled on his back and
squinted at the sky,
Wishing he were the long winged bird
that slantwise sailed on high
For day was lapsng swiftly, halfway
from dawn TO noon,
And the breeze it sang: 20, lazy boy,
what makes you tired so soon?"
But the lazy boy was silent, and he
slowly chewed a straw,
Vaguely mindful of the thrush that whis-
tied in the haw,
And half aware of bleating sheep and OF
the browsing kline
Far scattered over slumbering hills to
the horizon line.
Happy happy, was the boy a-dreaming
sweet and long,
Famed by the breeze that tossed the haw
and RATED the thrush's Song;
For the whole glad day he had to loaf, he
and himself together,
While all the mouths of Nature blew the
flutes of fairy weather
The years great treadmill round was
done, its drudgery ended well,
And now the sunny holiday had caught
him in its spell,
So that he lounged, a lazy lout, up
squirting at the sky,
And wished he was that long winged bird
that slantwise sailed on high.
It's good to work and good to win the
wages of the strong;
Sweet is the hum of labor's hire, and
sweet the workman's song;
But once a year a lad must loaf and
dream and chew a straw,
And wish he we're falcon free or a cat
bird in the haw!

Near His journeys End.

distinguished lawyer and politician,
of this city, was travelling on the train
near Winchester, when an Irish woman
came into the car, with her big basket
bundle, ETC., and sat down near the afore-
said lawyer.
When the conductor came around to
collect fare the woman paid her money,
and the conductor passed by the lawyer
without collecting anything.
The good woman thereupon said to tho
lawyer: AN faith an why is IL that
the conductor takes the money OF poor
Irish woman and don't ask ye, who same
to be a rich mon, for anything?"

HUMAN NATURE STUDIES
The President and the Soldier.

The presidents deep interest in the
soldiers of the Philippines and his ad-
miration for them were illustrated few
days ago, says the Washington Star.
Lieutenant W. s. Overton, of the Third
Artillery, arrived in Washington from
Manila. He was severely wounded in
one of the fights near Manila, remaining
III the hospital for months and being sent
to this country in July, under the i'm
preston that he would be disabled for
life. lie went to the white house to say
that he was recovering and desired a
fresh assignment in the Philippines. The
president noticed the soldiers limp, but
also noticed the pluck which character
ized the young man, who graduated from
West Point in 1897.
What would you like" the president
asked him.
~ think 1 will be well in a month and
would like to get on the fighting line
again, but if there is any doubt, l could
serve as captain on the staff"
"You deserve better than that" the
president answered. "You are made or
the material l admire, and If you return
here in a month in good condition, l will
make you a major. Go over to the war
department and see IL all the majors have
been appointed"
In one of the fights in the Philippines
the insurgents were posted on the oppo-
site side of a wide river. Just before the
order TO charge and swim the river was
given Lieutenant Overton and Lieutenant
AbeTnathy, also of the Third Artillery,
made a wager. This was that the last
man across the river and in the insurgent
trenches should make the other a hand
some present. There was a neck-and-
neck race between the men and their
comrades, but Lieutenant Overton was
shot down Just as he was ready TO plunge
into the river to swim across. Lieuten-
ant Abernathy was the first officer In
the insurgent trenches, and got across
untouched

Its a noble game, an elegant camel"
The minister said to me,
As he took his stand with his club in
hand,
While he smiled most cheerfully.
"Just watch me drive, it's easy five!"
And he moulded a two-inch tee;
But he missed 1t clean-"That's awfully
mean"
The minister said to me.
"The greatest thing is an easy swing
And a carry through" said he;
Then he slammed the ground-'Well, I'll
be bound"
The minister said to me.
"This turf is soft. so I think I'll loft"
The minister said TO me;
But he struck the wall and he lost his

That's very hard luck!" said he.
He reached the green in about sixteen,
"But II might be worse" said he;
Then he hit his foot in a six-inch put
"Provoking!" said he to me.

Ministered to Sorrows of others.

An American girl who met in Paris the
mother of Dreyfus does not believe that
her son could be guilty of the crime
with which he has been charged The
girl was staying alone in high-class
apartments and was feeling desperately
lonely, as her American friends had Just
departed. Her knowledge of French was
but slender, and she lonsed for compan-
ionship.
Among the boarders at the pension was
an elderly woman who reminded her so
strongly of her mother that she wanted
to fall upon her neck and weep every
time she looked at her. One day when
the older woman saw her with tears in
her eyes she put her arm around the
girl and spoke TO her so kindly and
sympathetically that she could no longer
keep back the tears, but fell to crying
heartily.
''There, there" said the motherly wo-
man. You have no troubles, my child"
After a few minutes she resumed: "a
great trouble came to me a few years
ago; since then have known nothing bpt
sorrow"
No one suspected at the time that the
elderly woman was the mother OF Cap
tain Dreyfus. She was known by the
name of Mime. Dreyfus-Gauthier, having
added her maiden name to escape noto-
riety.

The Lore of Love.

When do love thee? When the brooklets
run
Through dandelion meadows of the June;
When horns OF huntsmen greet the har-
vest neon,
And mellow Autumn's vintaging is done;
When Springs triumphant marches have
begun,
When Winter winds through haggard
branches Groom;
At solemn midnight and at silvery noon,
At blush of morning and at set of sun,
Thy youthful splendor unto me is dear,
But I shall love thee still when youth fits
by,
love thee when thine eyes know not a
tear,
And love thee when disaster hovers nigh
My soul shall crave thee when the Dark
draws near,
And still be loyal through eternity.
Walter Malone, in the Booknan.
