Songs Of Dixie Land.

This book contains the best work done
by Frank L. Stanton. He is the only
poet, since the death of Irwin Russell,
who makes the negro dialect poem
pleasure to read. "Songs Of Dixie
Land" starts off with a collection OF
"plantation songs" which show how
completely Mr.. Stanton has mastered
verse OF this kind. But he does not
strike a single eehord in this volume. We
find here number of ''Just from Geor-
8ia'' songs, quaint observations by "The
Philosopher" 'sSongs of Good Cheer
and 'Love Songs" in which Mr.. STAN
ton moves us to laughter, to pensive re-
hection and to tender melancholy in
turn. Certainly no better work of the
kind has been done in the South, and it
will stand comparison with any that has
been done in this country along similar
lines. We believe indeed that these
ssSongs of Dixie Land" will grow stead
lily In favor as the years pass by and will
be priced and preserved among the best
lyrics Of the South. Published by the
Bowen-Merrill Company, Indianapolis,
Indiana.

Mig is Il tine, large black cat owned
by auntic. who often says that he is
more like a monkey than cat, he is
so very mischievous. one day my
uncle was repairing a clock. After lie
was through lac started the clock strik-
.ns the hours until he got the correct
time. The cat sat on the table watch
ing him. Lifting his paw lie raised
the little hammer and made the clock
strike one. We all thought IL was very
cute Of him. Christmas lie climbed the
Christmas tree and knocked OF lot
of the balls. lie would tap them with
his paws until they would fall. Auntie
could not think what il WAS until she
went close To the tree and saw his lit
tie black head and eyes. He is very
fond OF oysters. and whenever they
have them Mig has to be shut up in
the cellar. as lac does not give them
any peace. hut goes from one to the
other AMI taps them with his paw as
though he would say. why don't you
give me SOmcT' He hides everything
he gets hold of. He hides corks up the
rainspout and spools of cotton and all
such things under the sideboard. He
is not afraid of anything but the ice
man, and lie scampers OFF as fast as he
can 20 when lie hears him coming.

sings to the Camel.

The jehu who wallops his horse to
make it 20 when the poor beast is dead
tired might do well to take hint from
the Arabs Of the desert. They use
camels much as other folks use trains
or ships. In fact. the camel has often
been called the ship Of the desert. The
animal has Il very queer temper. which
needs To he studied. When. therefore,
the Arabian driver wants his camel to
go faster. Il" doesn't begin To leather"
it. He finds 1t the better part to sing
To it, and the simple tunes cheer the
faded creature 80 much that it actually
quickens its pace at least one-fourth.
First one driver in the caravan sings Il
verse. and then the others join in the
chorus. Some travellers have said that
they have asked the drivers tn sing not
only to increase their progress. but
also because the melodies were so
sweet and simple that they were worth
listening To on their own account.
