TAMPERINe WITH TRIPLES.
CONE.

Come! 1 will lead you where the sky
Shines through the leaves turquoise blue
Where carpets of soft verdure lie
And blossoms dripping wet with dew
Spill from their chalices draught
Mixed by sweet fairies meath the moon;
Drink such as only gods have quaffed,
Where nights enchanted songsters Groom
Come come and midst the mornings mist
Well see the sun drink from the blooms
That erst the dewy night hath kissed
And left a-drench with sweet perfumes.
And we will walk beneath the height
Along the old path winding down
To where the mondays garish light
Blends into shadows and brown
And where an old tree leans and swings
Above the rivers placid breast
As, ued by tunes the rapid sings,
1t mods and sways itself to rest.
The gnarled old roots have formed seat
Where we may sit the livelong day.
And watch from perfumed retreat
The midday lights and shadows play
And will weave chaplet rare,
OF goldenrod and marguerite
And on your tumbling golden hair
Will set the crown, and at your ieet
I'll sit me down, and in your eyes,
Like pansies stepped in midnight dew'
Will read the hesitant replies
To things dare not say to you.
Till evening shadows coming down
Admonish the day is Sped
And past the old cliffs rugged trown

From sweet "memory's casket startl

And the happy welcome there.
"Heimwehi" oh. the world Is dreary,
Cold and selfish so Il seems
Hours OF ease and fame and fortune
Are but chldhoods golden dreams,
Dreams. that like the Sodom apples,
Turn to ashes cold and gray,
Leaving but a weary pilgrim
Longing for his childhood's day

Broken Is the little band
Gathered once around the hreside.

Some are out upon life's ocean.
Battling fercely on the deep,
Some within the quiet churchyard
Silent lie in that last sleep.
"Heimwehi" Is there then no comfort3
Is his happiness all past?
Weary lonely. heart-sick wanderer,
Peace and Joy shall come at last!
Here shall change to blest hereafter,
Rest reward all those who roam;
In the mansion Of "Our Father"
We shall find perfect home

Among the French are some apt
proverbs that go directly to the point.
The following, translated by Mar
garet Harrison, seem TO have lost
none of their wit by being put into
English:
The first and worst of all frauds is
to cheat ones self
To be happy one must have nothing
to forget.
A good intention makes but a short
ladder.
Happy is he who is not obliged to
sacrifice anyone to duty.
For all misfortunes there are two
remedies-time and silence.
Indifference is the heart sleeping.
The greatest, the strongest, above
all the cleverest man, is he who
knows how to wait.
The sorrows of to-day make the
happiness of tomorrow

The Vibration Cure.

The new vibration cure for disease
is based on the vibration theory that
prevails in the domain of light, sound
and heat. 1t is claimed that every
thing and everybody has regular rate
of vibration measured by wave
lengths These, when properly main
tanned, keep the subject in a state of
health. When they fall below the
normal, disease supervenes and the
natural equilibrium must be restored
by a good shaking. Machines have
been built to produce this effect ac-
Cording to the symptoms Of the case,

A DREAM OF TREASURE.
Exact Location OF a hidden Fortune
Mysteriou5ly Revealed.


Dreams are often unaccountable,
and perhap, what ann about torelate
may interest your readers. When
quite young was only seven years
old them lived with my parents at
villa in Trieste, Austria. ForWccks
and weeks l had the same dream,
although not nightly-namely, that
in the night time ! found myself at
the bottom of the garden in my
nightgown, scratching at little heap
of earth, and found copper, silyerand
gold coins, and suddenly looking up
| found before me, and watching me,
the sister of the landlord of the villa,
an old, haggard woman. Having
dreamed this so often, ] naturally re-
lated it to my mother, who repeated
it to her friends These friends, who
were of a superstitious nature, tried
to induce my father to buy The plot of
ground in question, but he would not
listen to such absurdity, as he was an
unbeliever in spiritualism. Well,
some years later, the landlord had oc-
casion to build lodge at the bottom
of the garden, and while digging for
the foundation large sum of money
in copper, silver and gold coins was
discovered. How is it that mere boy
of seven, without any knowledge Of
the place or of the history of the own
ers Of the said ground, should have
such dream, which turned out true?

A man talks about owning his
business. But, as a matter of fact
is business owns him. His whole
lie is regulated by the demands of
lie business. The time at which
he rises, his breakfast hour, the
time given to meals, are all de-
termined by business obligations.
He rushes through lunch because
he cant spare the time from bus
mess" to eat leisurely. He won't
take rest because he is needed at
the store or office. He is in fact an
absolute slave to business. The re-
suits which follow this slavery. are
to be seen on every hand. Men
dyspeptic, irritable, nervous, with
drawn faces, and hollow eyes, sit
at the desk or stand behind the
counter until they collapse in a ht
of sickness, or are taken away by
hert failuare. Those who cannot
escape the eXactions of business

and the lack of travelling comforts in

young woman in proper gray dress,
trying to put parcel in the rack above
the window.
"Why don't you have the porter do

"Why don't you do it2" asked the
woman, in return.
SO he bent over and helped her.
IF you don't keep after them they
won't do anything" said Raymond.
"What you need is your breakfast, .
said the young woman.
He thought over that for moment,
and then asked her If she had eaten.
"Certainiy," she replied. "An hour

His eyebrows lifted. This was new

and unaffected-not bold. He had no
thought of presuming. He respected
her from the very beginning.

A SICK STURGEON.
Big Fish Needs Lot to Eat Even If Not
VERY Well.

Dig flou Noolo a LOT 10 NAT hNeu II MOI
Very Well
The aquarium's big sturgeon, nine
feet long and Weighing 300 pounds or
more, received here recently, which
didn't eat anything for six weeks or
more after its arrival, is now taking
about 30 big clans daily and is feel
ing pretty clipper.
Thirty big clans are not very much
for so big fish. 1t could eat 100 big
ones or50O Little Necks, but 80 clans
are enough to keep it a-going here in
captivity, where it can have virtually
no exercise; and, moreover, it is stead
lily increasing its consumption Of food.
This surgeons predecessor in the
sturgeon pool, which was eight feet
long and weighed 200 pounds when it
died, used to eat when it was feeling
well a gallon and a half Of food daily,
consisting Of about 60 big clans, the
rest of the measure being made up Of
pieces of cut-up fish. This sturgeon
with its appetite in good order would
eat considerably more.
The clans fed to the sturgeon here
are opened, and only the meat is put
in the water, where they fall to the
bottom, to lie on the floor Of the pool.
Swimming over this food the stur-
geon takes it up into its mouth, which
is on the under side Of its head, by
suction; it might not come within an
inch or more Of the bottom, but draw
the clans up all the same.
The aquarium's new big sturgeon
is liyelier and at the same time more
sensitive than the oldone. Itthrashes
about more, and tries more often to
Jump out, which it cannot possibly
do, however, for the water in the pool
is not deep enough for it to get hold
and thrust sufficiently to enable it to
jump out. But it splashes the water
soemtimes so as to wet the hooraround
the pool. The other big fellow once,
when it had fungous growths upon its
body, permitted itself to be scrubbed
with a scrubbing brush. and even
seemed to like it. But even were there
occasion, no such experiments would
be made with this fish, at present, any
way, for such handling would very
likely brighten it to death.
1t will in all probability become
more accustomed to captivity; but at
present it is very sensitive and easily
disturbed.
Somebody in the gallery the other
day, looking down upon the sturgeon
pool, accidentally dropped into it
little printed leahet Of red paper,
which Aoated upon the surface of the
water over the track which the stur-
geon follows in its well-nigh cease
less circumnavigation of the pool. 1t
was a harmless thing, buttheb igstur-
geon didn't like it; SHE'D at it every
time he swan under it; so that the
attendants fastened to fish the dis
turbing red paper out Of the pool
