TO PRUE, WITH VlOLETS.

These flowers from sinner, sweet,
To go to church with you;
He would not dare to enter there,
But if his name comes in your prayer
Perchance they'll hear it, Prue.
But let them breathe the message first
He charged them bear to you
So sweet thing he dare not bring
His rude lips to its whispering;
Perchance they'll tell you, Prue.

The Rig ShiDs of the Past,

Gigantic as are the sea monsters de-
vised by the modern shipwright, we
have not reached the dimensions of the
masts We're SO high that a boy sent
aIoft to bear a hand came down a
gray headed man, whose deck was so
spacious that the captain had to gallOp
about on horseback to give his orders
and whose length was so great that
when swinging in the channel her stern
scraped the cliffs of Albion white, while
her bowsprit swept the forts at Calais.
But we have exceeded in some re-
SpectS the dimensions of PtOlemy'S
great ship, which was 420 feet long. 81
feet broad and - feet in depth of hold
and which carried 1000 rowers and
5000 mariners, besides unnumbered
soldiers and passengers. Of the great
ship of Hero. king of Syracuse, the d.
mansions have not been recorded, but
she was at least as large as Ptolemy's,
considering that her freightage was
100000 measures of corn. 10000 jars Of
salt fish, 10000 talents weight of wool
and Of other cargo 10000 talents, in ad-
ditiOn to the provisions required by the
crew." and that she was so large no
harbor in Sicily could contain her.
This problem of harbor accommoda-
ton is one that is already troubling
the owners of modern steam monsters
and is placing a limit on their growth.

No Pinea Smoked In Cuba.

Cuba produces no tobacco for chew

who smoke pipes might be counted on

Cuban cigarette might ever become
popular with American smokers is a

About SneezinG.

We frequently hear the expression.
"God bless your uttered after some
one has sneezed. The expression, if
we can believe Clodd in his childhood
of the World" dates back to the time
of Jacob. We are told in Jewish lit
erature that previous to his time men
sneezed but once in lifetime and that
was the end of them, for the shock
slew them. Jacob prevailed in prayer
and had the fatality set aside on the
condition that among all the nations q
sneeze should be hallowed by the
words, God bless your In the "Jata-

preaching to his disciples happened to

exclamation, and Buddha lectured them
for interrupting his discourse.

"and you say, May he live! will he
live the longer?'
Certainly not!' cried the priests.
"And if you do not say it will he die

"Then," said Buddha, ''from this time
forth if any one sneeze and a priest
says, May you liver he shall be guilty
of transgression.''

Quick Work Might Solve 1t.

A lady was recently reading to her
young son the story of little fellow
whose father was taken ill and died,
after which he set himself diligently
to work to assist in supporting him
self and his mother. When she had
finished the story, she said:
"Now, Tommy, if pa were to die,
wouldn't you work to keep mammal"
"Why, no. said the little chap, not
relishiDg the idea of work. "What
for? Amt we got a good house to
live in?"
ooh, yes, my DEAR" said the mother
"but we can't eat the house, you
know"
"Well, amt we got plenty of things
in the pantry?" continued the young
hopeful.
"Certainly, DEAR replied the
mother "but they would rot last long,
and what then?"
"Well, ma" said the young incorri
gible, after thinking a moment, "ain't
there enough to last till you get an
other husband. "-Erchdnge.

SUPPLEMENTING STABLE MANURE.

The maintenance of fertility in farm
! lands is not possible with the use Of
only the maaures produced on the
farm. 1t has even been found that
by the introduction of drug from the
towns, or produced on the farms and
acre yearly, the grain yield only aver
aged twenty one bushels of wheat,
thirty five bushels of barley and fifty
four bushels of oats as a result Of
twelve years dressing. I do not
mention this to disparage stock
manure, but to draw attention to inn
portant facts which must sooner or
later confront every farmer.
The stock manure produced in the
barn and yard and immediate ap-
piled to the soil or carefully preserved
makes one of the best imaginable first
conditions in providing fertility for
crops. Instead Of applying it yearly
it pays best to give moderately heavy
dressings of it to the land about once
in three years and to use healthy arti-
fcials to meet deficiencies and bal
ance the soil for each crop. 1t is we'll
known that all crops are permitted
either in yield or quality by the
presence of much larger proportion
of phosphate than stock manures rro-
vide, and that some, such as wheat,
need plenty of readily available nitro
gen as we'll.
1t is wisdom then to use commercial
phosphate and nitrogen in addition to
stock manures, not in place of them.
The use of commercials in this way is
much the same as using concentrated
grain feeds with ensilage or other
folders. By not using commercials
to balance our manuring heavy loss
of plant food is entailed, as the crops
are unable to properly assimilate un-
balanced rations and fail to produce
to their full capacity or fall an easy
prey to the various insects and fungi
which do manure's scavenger work
and show their preference for surplus
accumulations thrown together with
out sufficient bracing.

imperative int1mation-perhaps direct
from the slant eyed mandarin, who
knows THAT he might hear Of some
thing to his advantage if he should go
down to the city and call upon Clemen-
tine; so after some futile resistance to
the message he betook himself thither.
He was graciously received by Glenn
entine-that is, graciously enough for
a young man who had played the
trif1er with her invisible affections
and he seated himself in a coy chair
near the pretty table which held his
old friend-the blue jar.
AS he talked with Clementine, a lit
tie constraint being apparent on both
sides, he toyed with the lid of the jar,
and the slant eyed mandarin appeared
to wink at him three times very know
ingly.
Under some occult but imperative
pressure Randall removed the lid and
touched with his finger the silken tex
ture of some mysterious contents.
Curiosity further constrained him,
and he pulled from the bosom of the
now jubilant mandarin pale blue ar
ticle of singular description for parlor
Gated a pale pink strip of similar shape
and structure.
Turning to Clementine for eXp1ana-
ton of these unforeseen apparitions, he
found her speeches. with wild eyed as
constituent, and without a word or
gesture she seized the old blue jar and
hurried from the room.
Randall smiled the first real, soul felt,
refreshing smile that he had INDUCED
in for several months and vowed by
the pigtail Of the old slant eyed that he
would stay rooted to the spot until
Clementine returned.
What she said to the genius Of the
jar as she flew up stairs with it only
the mandarin can reveal.
As Randall paced the parlor, pulling
his mustache and wondering if CIemen-
tines keen sense of humor would carry
her safely through the trying hour, she
came shamefacedly into the room, bear
ing in one hand the blinking old man
DARN and in the other the pleading let
ter be had borne so long hid in his
clever old bosom.
Randall met the dear girl more than
half way, and as she whimpered gently
on his shoulder he promised never,
never, never to tell.
And when they were married, if you
believe me, that ridiculous old ginger
jar accompanied them on their wedding
trip, and Randall packed the bosom of
the grotesque mandarin full Of Clemen-
tines bridal roses, there to fade and
there forever to remain.
Now rs Randall never told and
Clementine never told, the entire
responsibility of this revelation lies be-
tween you and me and the ginger jar.

Louisa Nj. A1cott in a New Light.

Those who have read of Miss Alco:t
as a woman who did not encourage
intimacies, and seldom wrote lette RS
except to her family, have pleasant
surprise awaiting them in The Ladies'
Home Journal for September. In that
issue of the magazine the original of
Laurie in the famous story of "Little
Women" presents for the first time a
number of most delightful letters
which came to him from this remark
able woman. s'Laurie's" real name is
Alfred Whitman and he now lives in
Kansas. When a boy he spent year
in Concord, and there met the author,
with whom he soon became favorite.
After his removal to the far West they
corresponded regularly, and these
letters, the first installment of which
appears this month, show Miss Alcott
to have been different in many ways
from what her biographers would
have us believe. OF them Mr.. Whit
man says:
Difference to the wishes of the sur
viving members of the family compels
me to omit several of the letters and
parts of others. Enough remain 8,
however, to prove to all lovers of
Louisa M. Alcott that justice has never
been done to the sweetest and most
attractive side of her nature-her real
love for boys, which sprang from the
how nature that was hers in 40 marked
