uustlike Me.

The following little poem by Hor
John d. Long, secretary of the navy
originally appeared in the Nursery:
At nightfall, by the firelight's cheer,
My little Margaret sits me near
And begs me tell of things that were
When | was little just like her.
All, little lips, you touched the spring
Of sweetest, sad, remembering;
And heart to heart flash all aglow,
With ruddy tints of long ago.
1 at my fathers fireside sit,
Youngest of all who circle it,
And beg him tell me what did he
When he was little just like me.

the state of Michigan has today. The
people get more value received for tho
money they put into this work thar
they do from any other line of state
activity. and the results have not been
due to any other consideration than
genuine merit on the part Of those who
have been in charge of the depart

view it would he far better to abolish

thought to the health of the people

Negro Superstitiou.

Many Of the negro superstitions IN
Kentucky are quite interesting. An
old philosopher told me with great
gravity: "lf you want peppahs to grow
you must git mad. My old oman al
me had spat. an | went right out
an planted my peppahs. an they come
right up" Still another saying Is that
peppers to prosper must be planted
by redheaded or by u high tempered
person.
The negro also says that one never
sees jaybird on Friday. for the bird
visits his satanic majesty to pack kin
ding" on that day. The three signs
in which negroes place implicit trus,
are the well known ones of the ground
