Stories of the Week.

The warm weather has brought
the spring poet from his lair, the ice
cream season is upon us and the
pocketbooks Of the clerks and other
ladies men will suffer There is
much fun in store for the girls who
will be surfeited with pleasure. A
disgruntled old bachelor was
heard to remark a few DAYS ago that
it was wonderful what an effect the
coming of the ice cream season had
on the dispositions OF the young
ladies. The same cynical fellow as
serts that girls are 20 per cent more
pleasant during the ice cream season
than any other time during the year.
In the little shaaty at the Laneas-

day on their .'Tun." robin started
to construct a nest few weeks ago
The boN-hke contrivance, covered
with a lid, the bird chose as good
foundation and she constructed her
home squarely on the top Of the cover.
so that when the same was lifted by
the railroad men each day to procure
the register book, the portion of the
nest would be rudely shaken off TO
the floor. With persister ce the moth
er robin would again pick up the
shattered pieces aud renew work
on the family abode, seemingly not
in the least discouraged by the delay
in operations After having torn the
nest from its lodgings half dozen
times, the trainmen Noticed with
what determined efforts the bird was
laboring and accordingly they sort o
formed compact each one by him
self. to modest the bird no longer and
50 day by day in lifting the cover to
desk the utmost care was taken not
to disturb their feathered friend.
The nest was completed and one day
an egg was found and soon four more
were added Now the mother bird is
putting forth her best efforts to hatch
out i've little ones, and though she
usually flies out of reach at the APP
proach OF the train-men, it is only for
few minutes and then returns.
Fred Burr. baggageman on theGalena
train, in whose heart exists a big
warm spot for the faithful mother
bird. printed large placard a few
days ago and tackled it up in con
spicuous place above the nest. Il

NOT WORK, BUT WORRY.

1t is not the work, but the worry,
That wrinkles the smooth, fair face:
That blends gray hairs with the dusky
And robs the form Of its grace;
That dims the luster and sparkle
OF eyes that were once 90 bright,
But now are heavy and troubled
With a weary, Respondent light.
1t is not the work, but the worry
That drives all sleep away
A. we toss and toss and wonder
About the cares of the day.
Do we think of the hano,' hard labor,
Or the steps of the tired feet.
All, no! But we plan and ponder
How to make both ends meet.
1t is not the work, but the worry,
That makes us sober and sad:
That makes us narrow and sordid
When we should be CHEEKY and glad.
There's shadow before the sunlight,
And ever cloud in the blue,
The scent of the rose i tainted
The notes of the song are untrue.
1t Is not the work, but the Worry,
That makes the world grow old;
That numbers the years of its children
Ere half their story i, told:
That weakens their faith in heaven
And the wisdom OF God great plan.
All. It's not the work, but the worry
That breaks the heart of man.
