dutiful little girl of eleven ever seen
in that part of the city across the

mother to call on great many older
persons. and has made the acquaint-
ance of numerous boys of fifteen or
Whereabouts. Not long ago one of these
boys came to see his friends mother
very formally and sat and talked with
her Until the tensfty of a formal call
nearly burst his Jacket. Then he arose
with polite bow and asked for n por-
trait of the little girl. The matron de-

The mother was greatly mystihed.
She concluded after awhile that the
boy had photographed her little girl on
the sly. and in order to ind out she
sent him wCrd that She would make the
exchange.
Next day there came to her door a

He was very youthful look ing man

lengthy re clan which caused him to be
the cynosure of all eyes in the Arch
street trolley car. Ii was probably the
first time he had ever worn q dress

painful embarrassment was noticeable.
Many smiles fitted across the passen-

noticed each one and blushed deeply.
But more trouble was in store. At

How Birds Migrate.

Many of the smaller and weaker
Lirds. like the fy-catchers. vireos,
wrens. kilglets and Lluebirds, in Or
der to cvoid their enemies, the hawks,
make their long flights by night, stop
ping for rest and food in the day
time. The larger and boide~ ones,
like the hawks and crows. and those
of extremely rapid flight, like the
swallows and hummi1g birds, migrate
fearlessly by day, and there are some
like the Canada geese, which travel
just when they choose, by day or
night. Migrating birds usually fly at
height of from one to three niles
and this enables them to see the rivers
the mountain ranges and the coast
line. By these they direct their course,
the old birds remembering the way
they came before, and the young ones
following.-Wonan's Home Compan-

THE eUcLE SONG,

He went away to the war that dsyA
To the swinging bugle song;
AL gtanch and true in his suit of blue
And sturdy, brave and strong,
Md the tramp of feet and the loud drum
beat,
And the ringing of the cheers,
There were none to see such a one as She
Who could not see for tears.
And back again came the marching men,
With the bugle singing still;
Yet the music's surge was signing dirge,
An sad and slow and shrill
For woman wept; and soldier slept
In the dreamless, silent sleep;
And the bugle song had a measure wrong,
FOR the buglers sometimes weep
And the bugles' lure while the years en-
dure
Will coax them to the line
And the lifting strains on the hills and
plains
Still echo fair and fine,
But the suits of blue, and the sabres, too
And the worn and battered caps
When it sighed the song of Taps.

was Lancaster, that he was poorly

bacco and gave him room for a share
of the coal stove. Not until then did
he speak, and then he merely uttered
a single "Howdy."
Then he laid aside his pipe and
looked at the little group that were
regarding him with acute curiosity. He
glanced from one to the other, break
ing into low chuckle as he asked the
one nearest to him, What did you re

He had refrained from answering
the questions addressed to him so long
that the little company denied him in
their minds the ability of speech, and
the man spoken to started and said:

figuring on the possibilities of words in
a lead pencil. and you would be sur
prised TO know what q man can do with
one lead pencil. How many words are
there in a lead pencil? How many
columns of newspaper matter? How
many pages in book Of the average
size? In the first place. the average
pencil is seven inches long. The aver
age diameter of the pencil used by men
who write a great deal is one twelfth
of an inch Considering the wood
and lead the point of pencil measures
about one-half of an inch one-quarter

''one-quarter of an inch of lead will
write two columns of matter for the
ordinary newspaper. assuming that the

The working of the prohibition mlnd
of the Republican brand affords a pro-
foundly interesting study. Liquor
selling of any kind as a beverage Is a
crime deserving the severest penalty
when a citizen does it. Therefore we
will make every citizen a rumseiler
through the Battell bill, and pocket all
the profits of the traffic for the Dack
towns.-rBurlington News.
The Battell bill was not a prohiDi-
ton measure and no real prohibition
list could consistently support it IN
preference to his own system. The
Battell bill did, however, have the
endorsement of some members OF the
assembly on the ground that, if we are
to have change in our liquor laws
they regarded this bill as preferable
to the majority measure. The very
patent fact that the Battell bill was
championed mainly by prohibitionists'
for the reason above given, excited the
suspicion ofanti-prohibitionists, among
whom the bill should have found
favor.
