Sheds its mellowing light
Just the hrst faint perfume
That jasmine doth shed
When II opes its first bloom
Then dash of the red
That a trumpet vine holds
'Gainst the trees shaggy boiei
Like loves fame that enfolds
And enraptures a soul
Then sigh from your lips

with large-headed pin that CLEANED
temptingly in young Mr.. Elephants
eyes. He stretched out his trunk and
began fumbling with the pin.
The woman felt something and put
her hand around to see that her belt
was in place. Before her hand got
there the trunk was gone. She salts
fed herself that her moorings were
secure and then brought her hand
back to the front again. Presto, up
went the trunk for a second attempt.
The woman was so occupied in the
discussion that she was probably only
half conscious of being touched, for
she did not turn around even then.
She merely put her hand back on an
other reassuring expedition, which
again missed the exploring trunk.
Once again the elephant found the
field clear. This time he was sureT
of his ground. He deftly took the
head of the pin, drew it out and then
swiftly jabbed it-there is no other
word for it-intO the wOman's back.
SCream2 Of course she did. She
jumped about three feet, too, and as
she came down she whirIed around to
see what had struck her. When she
saw that elephant she jumped an
other three feet. If somebody hadn't
caught her l think she'd be jumping
yet. 1 have seen the Midway very
lively at times, but l don't think |
ever observed greater excitement
than prevailed for the next few min
utes. I must confess that we added
to the occasion by going into fits of
heartless mirth. The elephant? Oh,
he was a model of joker. He never
cracked a smile"

of the menagerie building, swing
along with the peculiar gait of its
kind, and sit down in the very seat

out too and began to get ready TO
shout for a crowd.
Just then the elephant, which was
tapping its ears and swinging its
trunk from side to side, seemed to de-
eide on investigating the group

Not long ago the wife of a western
Kansas politician asked him to lay
aside politics long enough one day to
dig the potatoes in the garden. He
agreed 10 do it. After digging for a
few minutes he went into the house
and said he had found a coin. He
washed it off and it proved to be a
silver quarter. He put it in his jeans
and went back to work. Presently he
went to the house again and said he
had found another coin. He washed

STARVING TO DEATH.
Frightful Conditions in the Famine
Districts of Russia.
Peasants Have Neither Fodder for
Their Cows and Horses NOE
Bread for Their ChiIdren-s
Death Is "a blessing,

Forty million people in Russia are
facing a famine the horrors Of which
can scarcely be conceived by those
who are not familiar with the life
of the common people of the cars
empire. The golodovska-the little
hunger-of many provinces has be-
come merged in a gOlOd-a great
hunger-embracing a region Of 5OO,-
600 square miles. In all that part OF
Russia from the Volga to and beyond
the Urals and in the north and west
death from starvation has come upon
the farm and village people.
In the present case even the Pota-
toes have been burned up by the ter
rible heat which prevailed during six
weeks or more Of this summer. The
chief crops of the nation are wheat
and rye. This year the heat and
drought prevented the maturing OF
the grain and caused it to wither and
be Ges s,rOyed or TO be small in size,
nutrition and yield. As result, Rus
sia is facing the most terrible win
ter in its history and the govern
ment is preparing to take steps to-
ward feeding the people. How in
sufficient these steps will be can only
be judged by history Of past fam
ines.
Last year the farmers had a little
store of seed corn. but this year
they have absolutely nothing. The
reports frequently conclude with the
words: THE famine committees
must use every effort to obtain the
necessary corn and -four, as yell as
fodder for the domestic animals"
What these few lines imply can be
gathered from a book by DR.. c. Leh-
man and "Paryus," published at
Stuttgart by Dietz. The former is a
Munich physician. "Parvus" is a Rus
sian who has been studying political
economy at Swiss universities.
The two friends visited Russia in
Nay, 1899. with the object of seeing
