With its pages opened wide,
But his thoughts were with the woman
Sitting closely by his side.
He was thinking as he sat there,
Of the days of long ago,
When the head upon his shoulder
Crowned with gold was, not with snow.
When the blue eyed. winsome lassie,
Known to him as Maggie Brown.
Somehow. in his schoolboy fancy,
Seemed the sweetest girl in town.

AS his arm around her crept.
" Pears to me- we should be thankful
For the way that we've been kept.

For nigh onter sixty years,
Had our sunshine and our shadow.
But there's been more smiles than

OF the days now long gone by,
When, as boy and girl together.

Those were happy days. my Maggie.

But they could not be more happy
Than the days were Twin now.
Since that time we've lived together

Then he drew her closer to him.
Kissed the old and wrinkled cheek,
Called her all the fond endearments
Such as none but lovers speak.
And his wife with face uplifted.

RUSSELL &
THE ART OF NOW.SHOEING.
No Man is Born TO sIt-Faithful Practice
Makes Perfect.

Now that the local enthusiasts are hop
ing to Eave a chance 10 crafty their
fondness for snuW-sh0eing the following
little item relating to the art may be IN
teresting:
When Capt. Glenn Of our army. was
sent with detachment Of soldiers t.
carry out some extensive explorations IN
Alaska. last year. he found that snow
shoes would have to play an important
part in the work. An incident occurred
one day that proved to him it was high
time to break in all the men who had not
learned the art Of snow-shoe travel The
spectacle he ana his party witnessed was
amusing to all except the unfortunate
person who supplied the fun.
1t was before the party had started IN
land. The hospital steward was instruct
ed to cross a certain glacier and report
to Lieut.. Learnard. 1t was necessary TO
wear snow-shoes as the weather was not
cold enough to form a crust that would
bear the weight of a man. So he put on
the toys and Capt. Glenn AYERS in his re-
port. which the war department has just
published that no one was ever seen who
was " utterly helpless with such foot
gear dttdohed y MIN ~ th4s H"SPi'1i
steward
lie persisted IN SUCKING the zoe q IFS
shoes INTO the snow ana inns error kept
him in trouble Then about every third
pace he would step on one shoe with the
other and Keel headl"nS over INTO the
snow. In this situation he was mere
mass of helplessness and do what n"
might. he couldn't arise till somebody
came and boosted him 70 his feet. II
took MIN eight hours u travel Twp miles
and before he got back 70 camp ne had
given UP snow-shoeing- He came IN wad-
ing through the snow up 70 his Aps anu
dragging his shoes.
This convinced the captain that IL was
absolutely necessary for every member
OF the detachment to know how To use
snow-ShocS. ana 50 the cdict went forth
that the steward and every other man
who had not previously acquired this
knowledge should use snpW-Shocs fpr a
walk Of tive miles every day till All wer-
proficient.
All " which calls to mind that in th
very winter that Jnhn Milton entered
Cambridge University l62', there was a
tremendous fall Of snow in England. the
