True Nobility.

True worth is in being not seeming,
In doing each day that goes by
Some little good-znot in the dreaming
Of great things to do by and by.
For whatever men say in blindness,
And spite of the fancies of youth,
There's nothing so kindly as kindness,
And nothing SO royal as truth.
We get back our mete as we measure
We cannot do wrong and feel right,
Nor can we give pain and gain pleasure,
For justice avenges each slight.
The air for the wing of the sparrow,
The bush for the robin and wren,
But always the path that is narrow
And straight, for the children Of men.
'Iis not in the pages of story
The heart of its ills to beguile,
Though he who makes countship to
glory
Gives all that he hath for her smile.
For when from her heights he has won
her,
Alas! it is only to prove
That nothing's SO sacred as honor,
And nothing SO loyal as love.
We cannot make bargains for blisses,
Nor catch them like fishes in nets;
And sometimes the thing our life misses
Helps more than the thing which it
gets.
For good lieth not in pursuing,
Nor gaining of great nor of small,
But just in the doing, and doing
AS we would be done by, is all.
Through envy, through malice, through
hating,
Against the world, early and late,
No jot of our courage abating-
Our part is to work and to wait.
And slight is the sting of his trouble
Whose winnings are less than his
worth;
For he who is honest is noble,
Whatever his fortunes or birth.
The Courier. (Genoa, Nev.) 1899-1904, 1901-04-05
When Idy Had a. Beau.

The other night down at our house
when Idly had beau,
Me an Mandy heerd a stompin' at the
parlor door, you know.
An when the door was opened up,
hollered: sIdy Winn,"
This is purity time o. night to come a
trompin' in!
An Mandy ketched me by the arm,
an whispered, tense and low:
"Fer heavens sake quit hollerin'! Fer
Idy's got beau!'
My face turned red IS comet traillin'
through the skies at night,
An heerd Idly whisper: ''Wait until
git lightp
An out she comes an says: "Pa, that
jist shamed me nearly dead;
It's cold as ice in there an you folks
pile right into bed,
Sos we kin have this room," she says;
an we picked up to go,
Fer that's the first time in her life that
Idly had beau!
Well, talk about fustered girl! The
likes never saw
She called her father mother and she
called her mother pawl
cam help me straighten up this room,
fer gracious sakes!' says she;
An here l let my brogans drop, an
then she scowled at me!
says: "We're goin' right to bed as
fast as we kin gop'
Fer that's the first time in her life that
Idy had beau.
We got into the bed at last an heerd
him take seat;
We listened to the pleasant laugh that
Idy rippled sweet;
Says l, kind o. whisperin': "Well,
that is a sweeter sound
Than we have been accustomed to
with jist ourselves around"
Says Maudy, sort o. sighin like: "Girls
will be girls, you know.
That's jist the way fetched you in,
back thirty years agop'

Behold the ballad of
MARY AND THE LAMB.
Mary had little lamb,
His sex was such she called him Samb,
Because he was little ramb.
And Mary's teacher Mary taught
To love all that the preacher praught,
And drop nickel in the slaught.
Samb followed her to school, the wight!
If she'd observed the woody spright,
She'd knockt him higher than kight
But Mary held her noddle high:
''He loves herp' all the children crigh,
While tears stood in each little Ugh.
The teacher looked the fiocklet through
Suppose" said he, 1.-THE sheeplet
dough,
I'd like to know what tits to you?'
And then in manner rude and rough,
BY Samb's meek neck he grabbed the
scrough.
And fired him outward in hough.

The Holland Submarine Boat.

All of our readers are familiar with
the Holland submarine boat, with
which it is possible to go about COM
pletely under water. IF the enemy
have big warship lying in a strongly
fortified harbor, the boat can be sub
merged and make its way to the ship,
place a powerful explosive under it,
and blow it to pieces without appear
ing above water. While this boat
secretly destroys ships of the enemy,

His Deep Sorrow.

that l take the pen to inform you that

painful blow befel me this very day at
seven o'clock in the morning. Will
you try and get for me the amount in

very seriously and very sincerely that
she was faithful wife and an accom-
plished mother. So that matters may
proceed more rapidly l send herewith
an official certificate of her death. Her
illness has been very short, neverthe-
less she has suffered very much, which
renders my sorrow the more intense.
l trust you will help in consoling my
self by sending me very promptly the
aforesaid amount, especially after hav-
ing received by formal promise-and l
make it to you this very moment-that
when the time comes l shall insure my
second wife for $4,000 double the
amount of the defunct. My sorrow is
immense; however, the prospects that
you will hasten to satisfy me sustains

that | shall soon receive the amount
insured, I and my children pray you
to accept our sincere gratitude.
