George Abbay says If it had been a

oosLlNs. oNoMEs AND ELVES.

You have r~ad of the fays and fairies. the goblins. gnomes and elves? They dwel, here right among you. Why. we arr those folks ourselves; The round-raced pudgy babies here m your laps and homes, We are ths frolicsome fairies. the goblins gay and gnomes Iris strange how people wonder and seek both fast and far For mysteries by the million which live right where they are. Good fairies watch OCT mortals. their in- nocent ways and wiles, Sow crops of good intentions you harvest in sheaves of smiles; They gladden. the poorest houses. bring hope to the poorest hearts. And lend men inspiration to triumph in fields and marts. Don't we these things accomplish. when baby's magic touch Will brighten the poorest hovel and bless its mOrtals much? Of course we are full of mischief. 'tis trait of the gleesome elves. But grown folks lean little to trouois' some ways themselves; We keen them alert and watchful, restrain them from over-sleep. And sometimes even up matters by making them scold and weep; But we later give lutl IhcooutS oA caSo~ss'o disguised in noise. Transmitting their brighter moments to jubilees packed with joys. Their work would flag and falter but for babes enshrined at home; We sometimes act as magnets. permitting them not to roam. We hold their hearts at the firesids wher their bodies are far away. And we even make hard sinners rsmem. ber their God and pray: Of course we are mites but mighty. wee folk but wondrous strong. For we turn to psalms the signing. and we turn the sObs to song. Yes, we are the fays and fairies. the gob. lins, gnomes and elves, Combining all their witchcraft and willy ways ourselves: We work grand transformations. some. times by the midnight moon, When papas waltz in "nighties" and trot to homemade tune. Don't strain your t, $ far-seeking for hidden elves and charms, Here are the wee folk nestling right in your laps and arms.

MAxIMs OF c. P. HUNTINGTON.

The great secret of success is lying by a nest egg and adding to your little store, never spending more than you make, and being strictly economical.
 False pride is an enormous obstacle. I know young men in New York who would not carry trunk along Fifth avenue for all the frontage they could pass, because they would be afraid that they might meet some girl they knew.
 Another principle have constantly obeyed is business before pleasure" The chances are as good to-day as they were-they are even better. But do not think that the life of one who has accumulated hundred millions. more or less. is in the .east inspiring. It dazzles, it bewilders the struggling youth. It may inspire him for time, but that inspiration soon wears off.
 Appreciate the value of to-day. That's my advice to young men. It has been my rule through life-I am nearing the century mark now-not to look for ward, for the future is blank. To-day is the all-imp rtant issue. have never gone agains' the tide nor worried while my schemes were maturing. A farmer sows a field of wheat. To worry over it would merely sap his en- ergy. The wheat requires his atten- ton at the harvest.
 In my mercantile life have noticed the man who arrives at his post on time and not one minute later. and who leaves on the minute and not one sec ond later. He does no more than he has to do and does not do that well. Then there is the man who arrives ahead of time and works late if need be. He takes an interest in his work and is anxious to be advanced. 1 have always lived within my means and always strived for advancement.
 WhenI was boy on my fathers farm in Connecticut l worked hard, utiliz- ing every moment. for there was plen- ty to do. But if I had any spare time did chores for the neighbors. never wanted for anything I needed! I all ways got it. But many buy things they do not need. When I went to New York in 1886 had quite sum of money, the result of my savings, judi cious investments. and little tradings about the neighborhood.

 ID CT settee. "I never realized what a noise one could make rattling his bones before-it seems as if all my joints needed oiling, like the spring chair inside the doctors office. Why"
 What do you know about the doc. tors officer" asked the white painted rocking chair, rocking violently back and forth in the wind as if she enjoyed its snap. Have you ever seen doc. tors office, and if you have, pray what is it like?"
 Why" laughed the settee, "I wal born in one-or, rather, was born in factory like you were, but that is SC long ago that I can hardly remember it."
 The cane-seated piazza chair snick. cred, and looked at the white rocker while he whispered almost loud enough for the settee to hear:
 There! 1 told you he was an olG fossil. And that proves he is weak ir his memory as well as in his legs. I'm going to give the old fellow glue pot for his birthday"
 The white rocker laughed softly. "Dc hush, you funny boy" she said, shak. ing her head at him. He's very nice if he is old, and he is very interesting too. He certainly knows more than some people do."
 The cane-seated chair looked proper. ly rebuked, and nodded "yes," al. though he was chair of settee expert. ence himself, having for number of years held an important position in the buffers pantry. It was worth while to be little meek if it pleased the white rocker, for every one wished to be in her favor, she was such bright, lively little thing.
 What is doctors office ?" repeated the settee, when he had answered a question asked by the capacious red rocker. "Why, it is room where"
 And what is room?" interrupted the white rocker. Whereupon the others burst out laughing.

 'I had spoken, of course, and quite freely, too, about his treatment of my cushions, but said nothing more.
 "Well, I did not see Miss Lynn for some days, and the next time she came in it was with the doctor, and they both looked so happy, and he kissed her right then and there. could feel my green cushions almost turn red. I was so shocked. In Tinute I under stood. though, when they sat down to- gether on me and discussed the date for the wedding"
 The old settee stopped and cleared his throat, which had become quite husky.
 And was Mrs. Gregg Miss Lynn be- fore she married the doctor?" asked the little white rocker, softly.
 "Yes-and I held the bride on her wedding day when she felt faint and had to rest" said the settee. Here comes Miss Phyllis. who is the image of her mother"
 Phyllis Gregg. her cheeks rosy from brisk early morning walk and her golden hair blowing kisses to them, came up the steps with her sister Doro- thy. aged l2.
 "See how human the chairs look. Dorothy" she said "You could almost imagine that fathers old settee had been telling stories of the times when it was young--the others seem to be turning toward it to listen'
 "Isn't that funnv!" cried Dorothy, her black eyes spa ing. "Phyllis. I'm going to take the little white rocker upstairs. It is so pretty and need rocker in my room," and she proceeded to carry it off. never noticing the groans of the settee. the pained look the cane-seated chair gave her. the ap- proval of the old red rocker or the de- light of the little white one on her way to explore the mysteries of the world. --Boston Globe.

 Anything to relate?" queried one of the passengers as he woke up.
 Just few words. I travelled from New York to Chicago with staving- looking girl. At Buffalo I was gone on her. As we reached Chicago she had set the date. l returned home, wrote her 32O love letters and came out here to get married"
 And what?"
 "She decided that she would mar " another. She estimated the value of my time at $500, the worth of my letters at $500 and my broken heart at s2OO, and drew me Q check for s1,0OO, and here it is.

ON THE WING.

Hawks have been seen to follow the wake of a moving railway train, to swoop down on small birds that were suddenly disturbed and frightened by the noise, and therefore for the mo- ment were off their guard.
 The ostrich has long been laughed at for pushing his head into a bush when hunted. It is really far the wisest thing the bird could do, for its long neck is by far the most easily seen part of it. Its body plumage har- monizes perfectly with the desert sand.

"A Painted Lady" Luncheon.

"A Painted Lady" luncheon sounds
rather peculiar and those who received
the invitations from Mrs. Joshua Eli
oft pondered over them long and seri-
cusly. Did it mean that they were to
make up" or were they to meet some
celebrity OF the stage who would appear
in her full war paint. All these sur
misses had no effect on the attendance of
guests, however, and the Elliott home
On West Copper was comfortably filled
with guests at the hour set, 1880.
The parlors were literally banked with
pink and white sweet peas, the library
the same and the dining room was liter
ally a bower of sweet peas, all in the
pink and white. The name cards each
bore cluster of the same flower Rut
no painted lady was visible and it was
not until luncheon had progressed well
toward the end that a guest asked the
question: Where is tie Painted
l.ady?" Mrs. Elliott laughed and an
swered, "All around you" Then she ex-
planned that the sweet peas used in dec
Grating was known by forests as the
Painted Lady There was a general
laugh and each guest explained in turn
just what she had thought. hoped or
feared from the unique invitation.
The guests were: Mrs. Adams, Mrs.
A. Jones. Mrs. James Sullivan, Mrs.
Casey. Mrs. Graham Horton of Helena.

Mrs. Kirk Smith, Mrs. Johnstone, Mrs.
