MOSQUITOES END WAR.

Go back to the time when Sapor.
King OF Persia, held Nisibis in siege,
and>it is found that the mosquitoes of
that day descended upon his army In
such numbers, and with such vicios-
ness-big ones they were-that the
King of Persia was compelled to call
the war of and retreat. That famous
and historic attack of the mosquito
upon man is vouched for by the his
torians, and 1t is not written that the
Persian army contracted malaria or
yellow fever. But It did contract fear
fully painful bites, that caused it to

THE OLD TRUNDLE BED.

Oh the old trundle bed where | slept
when boy!
What canopied King might not covet
the Joy:
The glory and peace OF that slumber
of mine,
Like long. gracious rest in the bosom
divine.
The quaint. homely touch, hidden close
from the light.
But daintily drawn from its hiding at
night
Oh nest OF delight, from the foot to
the head,
Was that queer little, dear little, old
trundle bed!
Oh the old trundle bed where wonder
ing saw
The stars through the window, and lis
tened with awe
To the high of the winds as they trem-
lingly crept
Through the trees where the robins so
restfully slept
Wnere l neard the low, humorous
chirp OF the wren,
And the katydid listlessly chirrup
again
TIL my fancies grew faint and were
drowsily led
Through the maze OF the dreams OF the
old trundle bed.
Oh the old trundle bed! Oh the old
trundle bed!
With its plump little pillow and old
fashioned spread;
It's snowy-white sheets and the blan-
kets above.
Smoothed down and tucked round
with the touches Of love:
The voice of my mother to lull me IA
sleep
With the old fairy stories my memories
Stfll fresh as the lilies that bloom o'el
the head
Once bowed DER my own in the ole
trundle bed

Paris, Dec. 21.-Bartholdi. the famous
French sculptor. designer of the statue Of
Liberty Enlightening the World. in New
York Harbor. has recently completed an
equestrian bronze statue of VercinSetorix. a
famous chief of the Gauls in the contests
with the Romans. This statue is twenty

swiftly toward the advancing enemy. Tho
horse has all four feet off the earth and Is
supported by a column underneath the mid
die of the body. There is great animation
and vieor in the group.
The statue being completed few days
ago. II was placed on a great automobile
and drawn through the streets Of this city
to the front of the automobile exhibition
now going on. There II will stand until tire
show is closed, when II is to be carried
on its automobile to the city of C1ermont-
Ferrand. where 1t will be placed perma-
nently.
II was at Clermont that the Gauls made
their best stand against the Roman invad-
CAS-. and there VerctngetOrix won fame.
The trip to Clermont will be watched with
great interest by automobiliSts. Ciermont Is
20 miles south by east from Paris. and It
is calculated that the journey will occupy
at least five days. The automobile intrusted
with the task Is Of 3S-horse power.
Bartholdi had at first intended to make
the statue eighty feet high and place 1t on

tations of the promoters. and the size was
reduced. The statue will stand in one OF
the city streets.
