SOMETIME.

Sometime when all lfe's lessons have been learned
And sun and stars forevermore have set
The things which our weak judgments here hav
spurned,
The things o'er which gIieved with lashes wet
Will flash before us out Of Lii. Is dark night,
As stars shine most in deeper tnts of blue.
And we shall see how all Gods plans are right,
And how. VIII IT seemed reproof, was love mos
true.
And we shall zee how, while we frewn and sigh,
Gods plan goes on as best for you and me,
How, when we called, He needed not our cry,
Because HIS wisdom to the end could see.
And even wise parents dsallow
Too much of sweet to craving baby y-hood,
So God, perhaps, is keeping from us now
Life's sweetest things because it seemeth good
And if sometimes comm;ng!ed with LIES wine.
We find the NORWOOD, and rebel and shrink,
Be sure wiser hand than yours or mne
POurs out this portion for our lips to drink
And if some friend we love is lying low,
Where human kisses cannot reach h IS face,
o, do not blame the loving Father so,
But wear your sorrow with obedient grace
And you shall know that heightened breath
Is not the sweetest gift God sends his friend,
And that sometimes the sable pail OF death
Conceas the fairest boon His love can send
Ii we could push ajar the gates of life,
And stand within, and all Gods workings see,
We could interpret all this doubt and strife,
And for each mystery could find key.
But not to-day. Then be content poor heart;
Gods plans like lilies pure and white unfold,
We must not tear the cose-s shut leaves apart,
Time will reveal the calyxes Of gold.
And if through patient toll, we reach the land
Where tired feet with sandals loose may rest.
When we shall clearly see and understand,
think that we will say. God knew the best.

as the big young fellow came running

the stalwart six-footer, more than boy,

a RIVAL TO THE SUN,

Nicola Tesla has at last perfected
his new system of electric lighting
daylight illumination, it may be called ,
and he hopes to have it soon intro
duced into general use.
Under full head of electricity the
lamp has the color of ice in the sun.
The light is so soft and absolutely
steady. So diffuse is it that it deceives
the eye, and at first seems without
much power of illumination.
This is the light-the "pertect sani-
tary" light, as Tesla calls it-which he
has been seeking for ten years. There
are neither wires nor carbon filaments
to break or burn out. The lamp may
be described as nest of glass tubes,
but in rectangular form.
Each lamp has about twenty feet of
the white flaming tubes. Into this
square coil of hollow glass Of the diam
eter Of ones finger electricity is sent
quivering from Tesla's oscillator.
Bursting into light it floods the
apartment with the clear light Of day.
1t is daylight-aot the spendor of the
sun, but the light of the sun, as on a
cloudy day, when one forgets that the
sun is shining.
Tesla's oscillator, which he believes
is the key for solving the most impor-
tant electrical problems of the day,
causes vibrations of inconceivable
speed. These electrical vibrations turn
the atoms of the gases in the tubes
into, as it were, little comets, which
shoot through the inclosed space with
tremendous rapidity, leaving trains of
light behind.
This sudden starting and stopping
of the current produces continuous
light, not of the incandescent nor of
the arc light character, but purely So
lar. In other words, each lamp is
little sun.
The little white icy tubes shining
along the ceiling of Tcsla's laboratory
appeared no more responsible for the
daylight in that room than the glass
pendants of a chandelier. In a far
corner an ordinary incandescent bulb
was glowing. 1t was extinguished,
but the daylight remained. When
Tesla's icy tubes were extinguished
the place was in darkness.
Several interesting experiments
were also made The sudden lighting
of gas or Of tue ordinary electric lamp
so shocked and strained the eyes that
one seemed for the moment afflicted
with sudden yellow blindness.
The Tesla lamp IS not like any of the
known lights in use. 1t seems only a.
bunch Of crystals glowing on the cell
ing at midday. But remove them and
all yht vanishes.

WHY 1891 SEEMS FAMILIAR
TO HIM.

1t may sound odd to you," said
book keeker, "hut the date 1901 seems
already more familiar to mo than 1900
ever did. You see We don't get ci-
phcr at the end of year date but
once in ten years, and we get two ci-
pliers there only once in hundred
years. Practically no man ever seems
more than once in his lifetime year
with two ciphers in it; and as a mat
ter of fact it never gets to be familiar
to him aul SO 1900 seemed just about
rs strange at the end Of the year as it
did at the beginning; whereas i year
running out with figures to which We
are accustomed, does seem familiar.
Accordingly, 1901 seems like an old
friend, and I'm glad to see it."

PLEA FOR THE BIRDS.

heard the skylark's heavenward note.
The throstle greet the day,
And watched the white gull wheel and float
About the bright blue bay;
And k:nget flicker round the rose,
The woOdpecker alight
A moment where the woodbine blows.
Then ripple out of sight.
And then another sight 1 saw,
Tossed plumage, crimson streak.
The shattered wing, the crippled claw.
Mute breast and droCping beak;
And round this havoc, creatures fair,
Not sad, but eager row
With The dead spoil to deck their hair.
And ornament their brow.
O, tender maiden, trustful wife,
Nurtured in tliss and ease,
The selfsame heaven that lent you life
Gave life no less to these;
And when, mid wintry frost and rime
Te Yule log hearth you cling,
Rene mber, in the sweet sp-ingtme,
The birds again will sing.
They with their 'ays your love will thank,
If you will only spare,
And once again to wil'owy bank
The kingfi ,her repair.

Its ten 'erness begun.
And oriole plume and erget crest.

Coughs, colds, lame back, lumbago, mus

external treatment, are at once relieved and
cured by Benson's Plaster.

MARCH AND THE LION.
;)METHING BETTER THAN TIE OLD SAW.

SOMETHING BETTER THAN TIE OLD SAW.
The saying about the lion and the
lamb in March often proves false, but
there is another and better one
which is literally true. When March
comes in and finds you taking Hoods
SarsaparilIa to purify, enrich and vi
talize your blood, you may expect,
when it goes out, that it will leave
you free from that tired feeling and
with none of the boils, pimples and
eruptions which manifest themselves
because of impure blood in the spring.
If you have not already begun taking
Hoods Sarsaparilla for your spring
medicine, we advise you to begin tc-
day. We assure you it will make you
feel better all through the coming
summer.

HOW TO KEEP THE PLANTS
HEALTHY.

The health Of plants, like that Of
children depends largely upon the at
tention they get, especially during the
winter season.
Delicate plants should he housed be-
fore frosts become severe, and it is in
September that they should be brought
indoors. 1t is good rule, after they
have been moved to their winter quar-
ters, to see that one plant does not
touch another, because not only do
blights pass from one leaf to another,
but coming in constant contact, the
leaves become shrivelled and some
times withered.
Once a week there should be a
"house-cleaning" in the nursery, when
the stands should be busted and the
leaves washed or attended.
Plenty of fresh air is as necessary to
plants health as child's, and it is a
great mistake to keep the rooms con-
stantly closed during the winter.
Fresh air should now and then be al
lowed to sweep through the rooms.
With regard to temperature, an
even warmth of from 60 to 10 degrees,
with sunshine in the daytime, going
down to As degrees (but no lower) on
cold nights, will carry most plants
safely through the winter, and it is
most desirable not to keep up great
heat in the room at any time; for
plants, when in flower, last longer in
moderate warmth, and are less likely
to feel the severe cold which sometimes
sets in than when unduly coddled.
Every faded flower and yellow leaf
should be removed at once from the
plants, keeping everything fresh and
clean; not only do the plants look the
better for this little attention, but they
will bloom longer and become less ex-
hausted in doing 80 than when they
are allowed to set seed

HOW VARIOUS ANIMALS
SLEEP.

DR.. Louis Robinson, the English Ms
tnralist, tells how various animals
sleep.
"The chimpanzee, as far as l have
been able to ascertain" he says, ''never
sleeps upon its back, its favorte posi-
tion being on its s.>.>, ,i'h, one arm
under its head. In this respect it re-
sembles children from four to ten
years of age. The only gorilla which
l have had an opportunity of .observ-
ing also apparently preferred this atti-
tude, but occasionally seemed to sleep
comfortably in crouching position,
with its head bowed down between its
knees This latter attitude appears to
be the one adopted by nearly all the
lower monkeys.
"When turned out at pasture all
horses, except those which are Grip
pied by disease or injury lie down at
night with their legs folded beneath
their bodies. Some of the short
limbed and thick ,jointed animals, such
as the elephant, hippopottamus and rhi-
noceros, find difficulty in bending
their legs under them after the man.
ner of their more slender kindred.
Hence they sleep upon their sides, in
a pig-like attitude.
"Bears, as tar as l have been able
to observe, have no characteristic
sleeping attitude, for you see them
lying in all sorts of grotesque posi-
tions, as if they found one quite as
comfortable as the other. Indeed. a
we'll favored bear, covered with good
layer of fat and thick coat of fur,
may be said to carry his bed about
with him, and any part Of his skin will
serve either for mattress or coverlet,
as occasion arises.
at is commonly supposed that all
cats sleep with one eye open. This is
a mistaken notion. Many cats actu-
ally fold their paws over their eyes to
keep out all light, depending upon
their alert ears to arouse them if dan
ger threatens"

For a Memorial
To Mckinley
Nations Great Dead not Forgot
I ten by the People who loved
him.
subscriptionst to Erect a memorial
from Readers Of the Telegram
received at this Office.

Nothing President Roosevelt said
In his message met with more hearty
response from the people Of the whole
country than the statement that at
the time Of President McKinley's
death .'he was the most widely loved
man in all the United States; while we
( have never had any public man OF his
position who has been SO wholly free
from the bitter animosities incident to
public life"
That the late President has not
been forgotten is evidenced by the In
terest everywhere, North, South, East
and West, in the Mckinley National
Memorial TO be erected over the late
Presidents grave. This memorial is
to be, in the highest sense. the sincere
expression Of all the people of the
country of their love for President
Mckinley and their admiration for
the qualities expressed SO eminently
in his life and deeds.
The memorial is to be erected at
Canton, Ohio, the home of the Presi-
dent iii his life, his resting place In
death; where his children are buried
and where the home life of Mckinley
endeared him to the nation. Canton
is inseparately associated with the
Great Dead, and it is proper that over
his last resting place the peoples testi-
monial should be raised.
In order that the people of Harrison
county may join with the rest OF the
nation in paying its tribute to the
dead, Offering will be received at the
Office Of the Clarksburg Telegram and
forwarded to the Mckinley National
Memorial Association of which Myron
II. Herrick, Of Cleveland, is the trea-
surer and Ryerson Richie, secretary.
1t is necessary that the name and adj
dress of each contributor be plainly
written for record as each one will re-
ceiye one of the artistically engraved,
souvenir certificates.
The purposes of the association are
the erection and maintenance OF
suitable memorial to the late Presi-
dent, and raising the necessary funds
for said purposes: and, after fully pro-
yiling therefor, the surplus of such
funds, if any. to be devoted to such
memorial as may be provided for the
late President at the National Capitol.
Every reader of the Telegram is in
yited to send in his subscription to this
Office.
