Record, undertaken to give us an ink
ling of what might have been had one
of the following great poets selected Bo-
Peep as a theme:
Theme.
Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep.
And can't tell where to find them;
Leave them alone and they'll come home
And bring their tails behind them.
/. Vnriation-MiltOn.
But while she watched, and oer the YER
dant mead
Sported the fleecy band, upon her eyes
A slumberous cloud descended; not as
sleep
Comes to the reveler whose fervid brain,
Afame with variant phantoms inter-
twined
In horrid convolution, losses long
Upon the restless couch; but dewy balm
Flowed on her SOUL and mild unconscious
EMBODIED. Meanwhile. DER their wonted
range
Transgressed the ewes; nor when she
woke, as far
As mortal ken might rove across the
plain,
Appeared one visible Her evil fate
With resonant lamentation did the maid
Bewail, and piteous weeping. Eighteen
times
As long as one might need to boil with
To adamantine hardness the smooth fruit
OF the domestic fowl, she lay and wept
Unceasing. But at last a mighty voice
Spake from the infinite heavens-"Cease
to weep,
Inflated shepherdess! Take thou no care
OF those far-wandered. Surely shall re-
turn
Each sheep unhurt, and following after
each
As spring on winter. shalt thou fnd q

Yes-theres no doubt I've lost them
Oh, why was l so sleepy?
Had l but fingered to think Of the cost
them
Dearly l loved But to weep 1
Know does no ,good-and the folks-won't
ii frost them?
! Rats! l don't care-whats the use of 1t.
! Weeping and wailing like this?
! Sure there must be such a thing as
abuse of it.
| Then it may not be amiss.
Having the chance to say something abb
struse OF it,
Such is the world of humanity.
Say-isn't that great sentiment?
Half Of mans life is but loss and pro-
family,
Something quite fine to invent I meant

ward insanity.

As l wandered at eve on the murmur-
ing mountain
Encircled with sunset and hoary with
years.
saw by the marge of a clear-welling
fountain
A beautiful maiden all melted in tears.
Now it went to my heart to discover
her sadness
That so lovely a bosom with sorrow
should heave,
And an eye that was made but for
laughter and gladness
Should ever have reason 20 weep or "a
Erieve.
Oh! dark are the woes OF the daughters
of Erin
Whose hocks are forsaken. whose sheer
are astray.
But the task of a bard in world such
as we're in
Is surely to chase all their sorrows
away.
so sweet were her eyes to me over her
bending
And her soft lips were pouting 50

Nor knew when the moon arose silver

This young lady is an ardent amateur
photographer and has collected many
rare pictures in her travels about the

for while on a drive to the summit OF

bits to sit for her. she was much sur

camera arranged that the children had
increased to the number of about for

for a quarter. 1t was impossible to
get anywhere near the first two objects

The Use of Fur.

From the New York Sun.
Fur dealers say that the remarkable mild
ness of the season has not materially
affected their sales. Most of the fashion
able women order their furs in the late
summer and early fall when exclusive
models are to be chosen. Besides this,
furs are becoming to most women and
form an artistic and softening finish to
costume. This will make them always
popular while the weather gives even an
excuse for their wear. 1t is true that the
heavy fur cloaks and coats are not so much
In demand, their general sale having de-
creased much within the past half dozen
years; but no matter what the climate, a
heavy fur-lined coat or cloak must form an
item in the up-to-date outfit of belle or
beau the special use designated being for
driving.
The evening cloaks Of women have also
grown far more luxurious as to their fur
Innings selected ermine, chinchlla and
sable skins now being utilized for the pur-
pose. Seal seems to be a discarded fur
Even for Innings II is not popular. 1t is
not made up in the smart collarettes and
muffs that are worn SO much, and while
some of the western overcoats that visit
New York during a winter still show the
sealskin finish throughout they are relit
Of old fashions when this fur was the only
| one possible.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
There are no points in Europe Where the
cold records of America are ecl1psed, out IN
Asia our lowest records are thrown COM
pIetely in the shade. Siberia has the colo-
est weather known anywhere In the world.
At Werchojansk, Siberia, 9O.4 degrees belo"
zero was observed in January 1883, which
gets away below anything ever known IN
the world before or since. AT that point
the average temperature for January Is
nearly GA degrees below. This town Is STU
ated at an elevation of $50 feet above the
level of the sea and during the entire win
fer the weather is nearly always calm and
clear. Perhaps the majority of people sup
nose that the coldest weather in the world
is at the north pole, but reliable observa-
tions made by explorers disprove this the
ory completely.
