"On Famc's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory marks with solemn round
The biyouac of the dead"


Some one, blaming little girl for
her extravaganza, said, "YOu should

"Why, is not that the way to make
both ends meet" retorted the child.
The Hon. Sir NJ Grant Duff, who

An English peer coming out of the

terry firm, Doulton's, formerly Pinder,
Bourne & Co Pinder's son tells the fol-
lowing story of how Rudyard received
his rather peculiar name:
cone day my mother gave a picnic
to the young people of the neighborhood
at pretty little English lake between
the villages of Rudyard and Rushton,
not far from Burslem. John Kipling
went, of course, and there he met a
pretty English girl, Mary Mcdonald,
the daughter Of Methodist minister at
Endon. Kipling fell in love with her
at once. They met very often at my
mother s house, and it grew into a love
affair on both sides. Then John Kipling
went TO the art school in KensingtOn
and was afterward sent out to direct
the art schools of the Madras Presidency
i'll India. When he went to India, he
took pretty Mary Mcdonald along as
his wife.
''ln the fullness of time son was
born to the kiplin2s in Bombay. Their
first meeting at Rudyard lake must
have been the pretty bit of sentiment
of their lives. for when they named the
son they took for him the name of the
little lake on the banks of which they
first saw one another.
Young Rudyard was the apple of his
father $ eye, and as he matured in years
he soon showed that he had unusual
ability and aptitude for learning and
scorned all playthings that We're com
monplace toys, but any sort of instruct
i've puzzle or game that required
thought and intelligence appealed to
him at once, and with these he found
endless pleasure and pastime His
mother was his early instructor. He
proved an apt pupil and in very short
space of time accomplished reading
and writing, and when this time came
to pass the difficulty was to PERSUADE
him to play and do as other boys. Books
Were his one pleasure. No matter how
erudite the work might be. Rudyard
attacked it and absorbed its contents
i'll fact he was quite beyond his years
in intellect. He had will of his own,
as Il boy, and at times asserted it in
spite of the remonstrances of his par
ents. When he was about s or 8 years
of age he was taken over to England
and left in charge of a certain elderly
relative. Here he passed some of the
most miserable and uninteresting years
of his youth. Eventually the time came
when Rudyard was old enough to be
sent to school and was accordingly
placed as bOarder in the we'll known
naval school at New Cross, near Black
heath, a few miles from London. He
proved an able scholar and kept his
place in his classes throughout his ca
reer there, Strange to say, he never
seemed to study seriously and continu-
Ously as other students, but was always
ready for IA lark or some practical joke,
which kept him frequently i'll disgrace
and a prisoner III the school. During
his frequent terms of confinement to his
quarters he conceived the idea Of edit
ing and publishing a weekly school
newspaper This aroused the admira-
tion of the professors, and then and
, there he made his first reputation as a
writer. He finally ran away from the
naval school. and later the editor of The

IN a HAMMOCK SHROUU.

When my turn comes, dear shipmates all
Oh, do not weep for me!
Wrap me in my hammock tight
And put me into the sea,
For it's no good weeping
When n shipmates sleeping
And the long watch keeping
At the bottom of the sea.
But think of me sometimes and say,
He did his duty right
And strove the best he knew to please
His captain in the fight"
But it : no good weeping
When n Shipmato'S sleeping
And the long watch keeping
Through the long, long night.
And let my epitaph be these 'Snrds:
Cleared from this port altss4,
A craft that was stanch and sound and true.
Destination unknown"
And it's no good weeping
When a shipmates sleeping
And the long watch keeping
All alone, all alone
And mark this well, my shipmates dear,
Alone the long night through
Up there in the darkness behind the stars,
III look out sharp for you.
So it's no good weeping
When a shipmate's sleeping
And the long watch keeping
All the long night through.

Not until the light of great genius
seemed about to be extinguished did
people generally begin to rully realize
what an important place Rudyard Kip
ling holds in the literary world and in
the affections of millions of Anglo-Sax-
ons and Anglo Americans. No great
ruler at death ; door could have excited
more universal and sincere sympathy
and interest than did Kipling lying ut
his hotel in New York. stricken with
what for time seemed a fatal disease
Here was man only 35 years old. who
had won no battles, taken no part in
politics born to no high rank and hold

moved the world that it stood watching
with deepest anxiety at his bedside
This is the reason:

Falling like dew upon n thought, produces

Rudyard Aipling was born in Bonn

Sidewalks of New York.

A drama OF the sort that sometimes
comes to light in real life in great city
is enacted in "The Sidewalks of New
York." which is described as reaching
the utmost limit OF sensationalism. 1t
comes at an early date for performance
in this city. The piece was written by
Scott Marble for Thomas II. Davis, and
contains strong comedy as we'll as a
serious element. The scenes are laid in
uptown mansions and in downtown dives,
on New York sidewalks in the tender
loin. then at an old distillery and shot
tower by the East River. and in other
places not less picturesque. All are
represented by the best scenic and me-
chanical devices. Dangers and rescues
entirely new to the stage form the thrill
ing climaxes with which the play bounds.

exhibition Of high diving on Monday

S,enography-An Impar,an. Study.

There never has been greater de-
mand for stenographers than at present.
In our large cities many stenographers
are making from s. 200 to $1,000 per
annum. and any boy or girl, who can
write 100 words per minute, and trans
cribe them on typewriting machine.
need never be out OF employment. Any
young man who passes the Civil Service
examination in Stenography and Type
writing is assured OF an appointment at
an excellent salary to begin with. Sten-
ography offers better and quicker remu-
neration than any other line of study.
and with the simple and attractive text
books of the Penn Pittman system good
knowledge of the subject is easily ac-
quired. 1t has been introduced into the
schools in some of the western parts oi
our country, and the time is at hand
when it will be studied by every boy
and girl who looks forward to a life OF
culture and usefulness.
