received. sends the following:
% friends whom l have never seen.
Who yet are helping me each day
Inc good you've done to me- 1 ween,
never can to you repay.
But can pass the cup along
The cup of blessing, rich and sweet
Into some mouth can put q song,
Can smooth some path for weary feet.
And this shall be the payment meet
III render for your gifts to me;
III try to make the lives more sweet
OF some whom you will never see."
There is not too much color or sunshine
IN life for us to afford to be Indifferent
even to passing CLEANS of brightness.

CARRIER PIGEONS.
Their Uso on Land and Sea Is Steadily
Increasing.

Here is new word for you, colum
bophilism. 1t means raising and train
ing messenger pigeons. Within the
last few years this industry has grown
wonderfully The governments of Bel
gipm, Germany, France and the United
States are training these birds to serve
as messengers from army stations.
The United States makes use of them
more especially from ships. Nearly
every one of our big ships carries a
coop OF honing pigeons. as they are
called, which are released as occasion
demands. and almost without eXcep-
tion the birds go with unerring swift
ness to their home on shore. carrying
tiny tube fastened to one leg. which
contains message written on the
thinnest of paper. They can be de-
pended upon to go hundred miles at
a speed of fifty miles an hour when
they are three years old. Special at
tention has recently been paid in
France to the use of carrier pigeons by
the cavalry. The bird is placed in a
wicker tube lined with hair to deaden
the effect Of the jolting. Three such
tubes can be carried in basket. which
is attached to the riders shoulders in
the same way as a knapsack. Tho
birds feet are drawn up and its wings
are folded when it is placed in the
tube, and light form Of folding cage
Is carried, in which the birds can rest
and eat during halt. Twelve men are
sent every year from the French cav.
airy ranks to attend course Of in
struction in the treatment and han
ding Of pigeons at the military pigeon
station at Vanguard. The sense that
guides the pigeon back TO its home is
as much a mystery now as it ever was.

away it goes in the right direction. A
nightfall the bird goes into camp neil

year 1t Yarmouth alone no fewer than
5000, 900 behring's were landed. and
as this year steam fishing boats have
largely replaced selling vessels, it is
expected this great total will be far

Benz , min Harrison's Lunch.

Ex-President Benjamin Harrison,
one Of the ablest men who has figured
in our public life, has always been
handicapped by his unresponsive cold
manner. When he was in the senate,
at Washington, D. c., in the early sos,
he always brought his luncheon to the
committee room. He carried it in his
coat pocket and would eat it while he
went on with his work. One day when
he got it out as usual from his pocket
he looked it all over ruefully, for it
did look rather fiat and dubious. He
finally remarked to those near by that
he guessed he must have sat on it &C.
cidentally. One of his colleagues-one
who had recently been ignored by Har-
rlson-spoke up impulsively: We'll,
by Jove, Harrison. if you've sat on It,
III bet you sixpence it Is frozen
solid," and Of course shout went up
from the whole committee. Harrison
took the joke kindly and joined in the
laugh.
