MISCELLANY
BY FLORA BULLOCK.

met VerItaOle man OF wrath the
other evening. Not in German DOR
any garden. but on the platform Of a
railway station. When he explained to
me the cause Of bis mental disturbance,
l offered sympathy. and together We
chanted the song OF the Philistires Of
the Philistines- Blessed is the man
who does what he says he'll do"
A certain Great One now loose in the
land, voice crying in this wilderness
Of labor. Blessed is the man who has
found bis work." agreed that at a deti-
mite time in the course o. his wander
ings he would stop over night at little
burg very near the end Of the world and
enlighten the Inhabitants, let them look
at him, and Incidentally advertise his
Wonderous Works. The time approach
ed; people from around about we're
thinking that the safety Of their souls
demanded they should sit at the feet Of
the Great One, freight train journeys
ard midnight hours notwithstanding.
The day before the Event, came word
that the Great One would not arrive. as
it had struck him to 60 another way
but be might favor them later. He
couldn't fetch bis message to Garcia just
then, but he'd bring it when he got
ready. He dill not ask any questions
DOR inquire it Ali Bahia or Sam couldn't
do it as we'll. He just simply said. "It
is co. and so it was. Great Ones may
do as they please. or rather, as the man
Of wrath says. they miH do as they
please.
My criticism is that it was very up-
wise for the Great One to assert that he
would be in any certain place at an ap-
pointed time. Even if he does not un-
derstand himself, he should know other
Great Ones we'll enough. after all the
Books he has writ about them. He
should remember that the blessed spirit
OF vsgabondia abides in all truly Great
Ones who start out to fed their work.
The spirit calls them hither; they go
hither; il beckons tn sm thither; thither
they wend their way. Do you suppose
John the Baptist followed a mixed
itinerary? Oh, the railroad. yes it is
spoiler Of all elemental simplicity in
Great Ones. They start out to carry
messages to Garcia and to other folks;
then they fix an itinerary and make
solemn promises, forgetting that they
are to be Great Ones, and coming down
from ideal things to the plane OF Com
mercial Travellers. with goods to brag OF
and sell for due consideration. 1t is
we'll for one to know when he takes his
pilgrim staff whether he is going as a
Great One, or as a Commercial Traveller.
II the former let him make no promises
and send no heralds far ahead; let him
gather the people about him and tell
them the message he has: il the latter,
he may fix his route and make dates
but let him beware that he keeps them,

A HUDRED YEARS AGO.

A hundred years ago
there were no telephonss;
The telegraph was still
an undiscovered aid,
And messengers were
not at beck and call I;
The railroads too were dreams
in brains Of wild eyed eranks
And porters had not
been invented yet;
The steamships had not
proudly plowed the mighty deep
Nor sailed the wide expanse OF wet,

A hundred years ago
the women wore big hoops
And beauty patches
on their rosy cheeks;
They did not strut about
in masculine attire
And look at times
like idiotic freaks
They were not known as
new" nor did they want to vote
Nor did the men in
gay shirt waists appear,
But Patti still was making
farewell tours and Wales
Was waiting for some
well worn shoes

A hundred years ago
the housewife sewed by hand
And wove her linen
with her spinning wheel:
The bike was all unknown
and bloomers too were not,
And oil stoves never yet
had cooked a meal;
And ragtime too was not on earth
and cake walks still
Were hanging round in limbo
with their fun,
And coon songs were not sung,
and no one yet had heard
OF that great ratio called
sixteen to one ;"

Dooley's Montreal team made It's initial
appearance of the season at Adelaide park
yesterday afternoon and was forced 10
bite the dust in game that was remark

playing. The Canadians are not the
most torrid aggregation of ball tossers

day played as though they were forced

weariness seemed TO be contagious, for
after the second period Providence was

for the nine INNINGS.
