ANCIENT HISTORY WAS FATAL
Shade of PhiIadeIphus Evoked with
Sad Results.

Shade of PhiIadeIphus Evoked with
Sad Results.
The trio who sat in the lee of the
deckhouse had been doing Europe
and the orient, and were homeward
bound on a big ocean liner.
The woman lived in Baltimore, one
OF the meE called Philadelphia his
home, while the other man remem.
bered with satisfaction his bachelor
quarters in New York, which he was
willing, however, to abandon, provided
he could persuade the woman to &C
company him along the shoals and
breakers of the matrimonial sea.
The Philadelphia was of the same
mind.
They had been discussing the va
rious points of interest seen by them
during their stay abroad, and unani-
mously agreed that Egypt, "the play
ground of the east" with It's beggars
and pyramids, its merchants and
ruins, its Sphinx and its donkeys, was
by all odds the most entertaining and
instructive.
Then the conversation drifted into
the history of that ancient country.
All were fairly well informed upon
the subject, and for half an hour or
more the dynasties of Cheops, Thot-
mes, Rameses, the building Of the
pyramids and other kindred subjects
were thoroughly and learnedly dis
cussed, until the Philadelphia said.
"Of all the rulers of Egypt. none
were greater than the Ptolemies, and
of all the Ptolemies, Philadelphus oc-
cupies the first place in history.
Among his other claims to greatness
is the fact that the City of Brotherly
Love is named after him."
81 didn't know that" said the New
Yorker, rather ironically, but | can
scarcely imagine anything more APP
propriate."
why so?" queried the others in
chorus.
30, that's easy" replied the New
Yorker. "Philadelphus has been dead
for many, many years, and so has
Philadelphia"
20, cut that out" angrily snorted
the Pennsylvania, as he walked
away, while the man from Manhattan
seized the opportunity to put the mo-
mentous question to the fair resi-
dent of the Monumental city.

Chance and Change.

Though dull and dark the skies, what
boots despair?
Ills but the moment, which will soon
The morrow's dawn may be as bright and
fair
As though the clouds were past for
evermore.
Nor be thou overjoyous II the day
Is glad and bright and Nature hath her
face
Enwreathed in smiles; the morrow may
be gray,
And leaden clouds come driving on
apace.
Darkness to light. and light to darkness
Night unto day, and day again to night:
Zen while the cloud shades hover Ger
the fields,
Triumphant through them bursts the
SUMS glad light.
So tits with life. Be not too much cast
down
If darkness rests upon thee, nor e,ate
IL bright be all thy pathway; smile and
frown
Fit swiftly DER the countenanos of
fate.
And that thy mirror is. She frowns on
Who weakly murmur and who fear the
strife;
But smiles on him who mocks at all her
blows
And braveiy bears him through mi.
changing life.

when | was out in Oregon, fifty
three years ago." said pleasant-look-
ing farmer, who has been In the red
raspberry business for twenty-five
years, according to the Detroit Free
Press, Il first saw red raspberries
growing wild in the thickets and
along the edges of the wild Oregon
roads. They were saucer-shaped, and
not so deep as the modern berry
just like those which still grow wild
in Michigan. AS the Oregon berries
looked tempting picked a lot in
my hat, but did not dare to eat them,
as did not know whether they were
poisonous or not. .
ION my way back to camp met
number Of Indians whom had seen
before and knew to be friendly; in
fact, they had taken such a fancy to
me that they once offered to adopt
me into the tribe. To these genial
Indians | presented my hatful OF
fresh red raspberries. and my joy was
great when they ate them all with rel

A year ago it was stated that King

throat So white that indeed IL might
An anchoritc cntice.-
And faintlY heard the parsons word
AS he preached about paradise.
My arm stole gently around her waist
Until our fingers met.
And huitering blush made the tender
flush
or her cheek grow deeper yet
Snowy and fair the hand beneath.
And brown the palm above
And the brown closed softly over the white
AS the parson spoke OF love.
All who is wise when deep blue eyes
Meet his and look coyly down.
Who would but drink. nor care to think
or envy's jealous irown3
T was but TO bend Till | felt her breath
Grow warm on my cheek, and then
My lips just softly touched her own
As the parson said Amen"
