Didn't Turn Back.

Backward, turn backward, o Time, in your
flight,
Make me sixteen again, just for tonight!
Let me go tearing around as of yore,
With my own joys to think of and not thing
more,
With no one depending ON me to make good
For house rent or coal bills or clothing or
food,
VT ss oong 6ae and
Backward, turn backward, Time, and
permit
Ne once more to sit here believing Pm ''it"-
Put in my heart the delusion again
That l know the whole thing, as thought 1
did then!
Fill me with dreams of high honors in store
That I'm always too busy to have any more :;
Let me depend upon others instead.
Oh, yes! yes I'm coming I'll put em to
bed !

sentation speech was made by Miss Ethel
Baker, President of the Y, and the re-
sponse in behalf of the school was by Noah
Wilson. The scholars had very pleasing
program of recitations and compositions,
and the ladies were much pleased with the
appearance of the school. Saturday after
noon an alarm of fire was given and it was
found to be from the home of Mrs II. n
Abbott. The fire department and the peo-
pie turned out promptly, but although a
great volume of smoke poured from the
chimney and big fire seemed imminent it
was quickly controlled and not much dam
age was done. Mrs. Abbott has many words
of praise for the prompness, energy and
good Judgment shown by the fire laddies.

Pity
and
Beauty

The most beautiful thing in
the world is the baby, all
dimples and JOY. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby.
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that a
little fat makes all the differ,
ence.
Dimples and JOY have gone,
and left hollows and fear; the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve--all but pity
and love--is gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her food. There is some
thing wrong;itis either her food
or food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; is living on what
she had stored in that plump
little body of hers; and that is
gone. She is starving for fat;
it is death, be quick!
SCOTS Emulsion Of Cod
Liver Oil is the fat she can
take; it will save her.

DRESS CUTTING SCHOOL.

There is time in every life when opportunities
seem to come freghted with blessings of special
fortune to each one of u.s. and very many are fore
sighted enough to grasp this opportunity and
very much better their condition in life and are
thrown out of the old rut into bright avenue of
existence, and right here in your midst is the
opportunity in the shape of a Garment Cutting
School where each pupil is taught separately how
to Draft, Cut, Put Together Baste all kinds of
garments worn by ladies and children; also
Featherboning and fancy cording for trimming, in
all its wonderful ways.
great many are attending the school, which
occupied one room at first, then took a second
room and within week have been obliged to
move into the third room to accommodate their
pupils. One can hardly realize the value of the
school until they visit it and see what it is like,
and the great interest manifested by the pupils
in it. Quite number are fitting themselves for
teachers and will open schools in other locations
(and the opportunities are wonderfully others are
fitting themselves to do their own work. while
some expect to do dressmakng for business.
All are are getting the very largest value and
and seem to think that this opportunity is certain
ly the cream of existence for them and are
bound to get all they can out of it. You are
cordially invited to visit school and see if
there isn't something in it that will interest you.

A Pretty Japanese Story.

One of the prettiest of all the stories relating to mirrors is that which comes from the far east. In this a man brings as gift to his wife mirror of silvered bronze. Then she, having seen nothing of the kind before, asks in the innocence of her heart whose was the pretty face smiling back at her. And when, laughing. he tells her it is none other than her own. she wonders still more. but is ashamed to ask further questions. But when at last her time comes to die she calls her little daugh- ter and gives her the treasure she has long kept hidden away as a sacred thing. telling her: After I am dead you must look in this mirror morning and eSening, and you will see me. Do not grieve." So when the mother is dead the girl, who much resem bles her, looks in the mirror day by day, think ing she there talks face to face with the dead woman, and never guessing it is but her own shadow she sees. And it is added. by the old Japanese narrator, that when the girls father learned the meaning of this strange conduct of hers. "he thinking it to be . very pitt eous thing, his eyes grew dark with tears."!Troy Times.
The Coconino sun., 1901-02-16

THE day of the great football game
 was approaching, and all Kensing- ton was wrought up to fever pitch. On the campus, at the eating clubs, and in the town the talk was of but one thing. How are the men to-day?" "Is Travers' leg any better?" Twill he be able to play?" Any signs of over training7" DO you know what tricks they are working up?" And so on-generally, be it observed, in the form of questions-for at this season of the year the ''inside" is very secre- tive, and outside gossip varies in de- tail almost with the number of speak CTS. In the absence of definite knowl- edge the suspense was terrific. A spir- it of nervous unrest pervaded the uni- versity, and serious work was we'll nigh impossible. Moreover, this spirit affected not only the student body, but many faculty circles as we'll. Instruct ors and younger professoars were un- der its sway, perhaps quite as much as any under-c,assmen.
 At 'The Cloister," where four of us, trainers of youth, live in contented bachelorhood, the electric tension of the atmosphere was obvious. Our conversation at meals and after was always about football; lectures were prepared without the usual care and thought; and fear we all spent much time in reading the athletic columns of the daily papers which ought right ly to have been devoted to original re- search.
 Il don't know why it is, fellows" said Milford, one day at dinner; ""I don't care a rap about the smaller games; don't take interest enough in them, even, to go down to the field when they are played in Kensington. But when it comes to the big ones, I get so nervous it breaks me all up; can't work and cant sleep for think ing about them. The strain is fearful"
 Prof. Milford has a highly strung temperament, but we all felt that his particular words applied to our own cases, too. But this particular year Milford had an added source of anxiety in connection with the game. Guild, the great half-back, whom everyone looked to to secure the needed touch
