The Fairy Rings

What they. mother-those bright green
rings,
Where the grass softly and richly springs?
All over the hills them shine
IN loving circles their links entwine.
Have the fairies come from across the sea-
From the hills of Ireland or Germanie?
Do they dance and play by the soft moonlight
In these dewy circles through all the night?
II would love to them, my mother dear
:: indeed they dwelling so very near;
Iut thought they dwelt in the old countrie.
And had never crossed DER the wide, wide sea. -
20 daughter. these beautiful rings OF green
BY fairy's eyes were never seen;
For fairies but live in the poets rhymes,
or the grandame's tales of the olden times
Yet more than the fairy or elf. ween,
see when look on those rings of green.
And more than the legends in poets rhymes
can read in these relics Of later times.
II see the cleaning OF snowy tents
Those white winged scourges of Providence;
Like Indian villages here they stood
On the grassy Hill, IN the shady wood.
There are strong, brave soldiers in noble forms,
And tender women with fairest charms:
There are household treasures young and old,
More dear to the soldier than gems or gold
Il see their home in the village sweet,
Where the brook and the river softly meet;
Where the cattle come at the evening time
With their soft bells tinkling homes dear chime.
Where the mother lists for her husbands feet,
And the baby is Isping his name so sweet;
And where Mary. down by the garden gate,
At the evening hour doth watch and wait.
Il hear the booming and shrieks OF war:
/ see the cash and the deadly scar.
And see the form so still and white,
With its up-turned face in the pale moonlight.
Il see him borne 10 his distant home
tAlas, not thus would they have him Gomez
I hear the wsiling of wild despair
And the sobs and groans OF the mourners there.
Il see all this in those rings OF green.
Where fairy's foot hath never been;
Where in war time stood the Sibiey tents
Those white-winged scourges OF Providence"

A woman friend of mine who has for
years made her pen buy her gowns and
bonnets. tells me in strictest confidence
that the club movement among women is
proving a gold mine for her. for she is
writing many of the papers which are
read before the various clubs in town.
Her fee for a paper on not especially
difficult subject is s25. and nobody is sup
posed to know that she has had a hand in
it, There is one club woman in town.

happened this way: The club woman was
asked to write a paper Social Ell

some other nice easy subject like that.
She delayed so long over the matter that
il was only a week before the day on
which the paper was to be read when she
finally engaged the professional essay
writer to do it for her. The manuscript
was delivered two days before the club
meeting, but the woman who was to read
the paper neglected to have ii typewrit-
ten. She read ii over hurriediy several
times, for, compared with the gown she
was to wear her essay was a matter OF
small Importance. The club met. The pro-
fessional essay writer was there, and the
reading of her paper by the woman who
had paid for 1t interested her so much
that she quite forgot where she was II

Training for Theatergoer..

a girls club recently organized has the
very worthy object of giving the members
practice in taking off and putting on their

Mr.. Box devotes a page Of the current
number of his magazine to his ideas on
the American home and the American
woman's way of furnishing it. Mr. Box
is very vigorous in his expression of opin-
ion. He doesn't care whether or not he
smashes his LADY readers " cherished IL
lusions anent bric-a-brac and other van
tiles. On another page of his paper the
lady reader may laboriously learn how to
ruin her eyes by embroidering church vest
ments; but if she reads Mr.. Box she will
feel that she is a very criminal housewife
to waste her life busting furniture instead
of cultivating her soul.
Much of what Mr.. Box says is undoubt-
eddy true, and the fact that he grows cpl
grammatic as he warns TO his task does
not prevent his remarks from being sane
and sensible. Nevertheless Mr.. Box makes
a sweeping and inaccurate statement when
he says that there are no people on the
face of the earth who litter up the rooms
of their homes with much useless and,
consequently, bad furnishings as do the
Americans" Surely Mr.. Box has forgotten
the small and always crowded rooms of the
average French and German apartment
And whoever saw British drawing room
that did not boast half dozen occasional
tables and chairs and cabinets and pic
lures in bewildering numbers? The aver
age French apartment boasts dining
room, but it is not a place of space and
comfort. 1t is usually the po<iest room in
the apartment. In the bedroom the bed
takes up three-quarters of the floor space
But no matter how small the room, a
wardrobe, table and two chairs have
simply got TO find inches. French law may
not regulate the furnishing of bedrooms
but the uniformity of bedroom furnishing
in France would lead one to suppose that il
does And how about those big German
beds and the heavy, shining tables and fat
upholstered sofas seldom used and always
shielded from the light of day? Mr.. Box
should read Irais's description OF typical
schloss when he dips into Elizabeth's Ger
man Garden. Americans, according to Mr.
Box, always frame their pictures in garish
gold They never use soft. stained wood.
He even berates the poor. He says they
furnish with wax wreaths and haircloth
Tut tut, Mr.. Box. No one out of Miss Will
kinss stories does that in these days of
| Illustrated ''women's magazines" and ma
chine-made furniture.
| Perhaps the photographs of 'the insides
| of American homes" which Mr.. Box col
lected from all parts of the country and
published in his paper have given him
| artistic indigestion.

A characteristic evening dress both in

American women have been slow to accept
this mode as an established fact for ii was
tentatively brought out months ago, but
there is no doubt about it now and we find
this fascinating outline in the most gor-
geous evening gowns, tea gowns and cloaks
both for day and evening wear. There are
many modern notifications which improve
the original model historically famous but
the general effect is much the same. The
spangled nets are especially pretty made
up IN this form, but very important
thlng TO consider is the figure of the wom-
an who is TO wear the gown. She must
DE tall, slender and delicately rounded or
she cannot hope for much success in an
empire gown, fact which will initiate
against the general popularity of the model
as applied TO gowns. Such fine discrimina-
tlon is not necessary in the selection of an

According TO a careful study of statis-
tics by DR.. Pilgrim during the past ten
years at the Hospital for the Insane at
Poughkeepsie. 20 per cent. of deaths occur
between and D. m, and the next most
fatal period is between 3 and a. m, the
fewest deaths occurring between and 8
a. m. 1t is not an uncommon thing to no.
tice partial or complete return 10 SAN
ity a few hours before the end, and this
is especially the case in those dying Of
consumption. OF the cases admitted to the
hospital there are two and one-half times
as many suffering from acute melancholia
as from acute mania, which is said TO
prove that insanity begins with depression.
In using alcohol as a stimulant always
remember that it should be given only in
small doses, and that large doses are in
furious by causing only temporary slim
ulation, followed by depression. Alcohol
will often tide a person over a serious ill
ness, but If used to excess there is a re-
dictionary state of collapse which makes
the disease more serious and reduces the
chances of rallying from the depression
