MIRACLES.
KANSAS

It was winter In all the world,
The meadows in miniver,
When / leaned my ear to a south hillside
And heard the rootlets stir;
All Earth was thrilling and murmuring
Like the shell-song of the Sea,
And I heard the breathing and whispering
OF things beginning to be.
And the million voices of the grass
Saying: I'VE, too, shall be coming to pass"
Softly stole to the elm-tree's bole.
10, the sap was shouting within,
And the tree a-tremble from root to soul
OF each tip with the coming green;
And listening low to the garden bed,
Up through the stiffened mold
The bulbs were dreaming aloud in red
And purple and cloth of gold;
With the soft little snow drops maiden
dress
Weaving itself out of earthliness.
Then down knelt by frost-bound stream,
AS still dead birds wings,
And the water was laughing under the ice
A million musical things,
Mad Midsummer murmurings!
And when in the graveyard face ice-set
l sought, where dead faces be,
Lo, under the sod and the icy wet
The lips were smiling in violet
And the eyes in anemone,
Where the mortal dust was visibly
Putting on Immortality.
Last. came to frozen face,
Where the ,city-cold faces are,
The Ice of Its eye. as shivered by.
Thawed into a sudden tear,
And the chill mask Quivered beneath tina t
heat
4 Till the cold lips broke apart;
Then soft thought I: Spring even here.
At work in the frozen hearth

A Scholar But No Horsemnn.

Chief Game Warden Reutinger was
telling story few days ago about
man whose Judgment was exceed
ingly bad, despite the fact that he
was a scholar of many years thor
ough training. This man and his wife
had determined on visit to relatives
in nearby city and expected to be
gone for three days. The man and
wife had bought horse not long
since, but only knew in a general way
how it should be cared for. The
question that presented itself to them
was what to do with the horse. On
the morning that they departed the
husband put nine feeds, which includ-
ed hay, oats and corn in the mahger.
Then the scholar placed three buckets
of water in the stall. He figured that
the horse would regulate his eating,
but he didn't. He ate it all as fast as
he could. Any horseman can tell the
reader the result.-Columbus Dis

Barbara hesitated. She thought if
she tried to say anything about her
studies in social economics, or the ad-
venture of this plan, as she had only
vaguely dreamed it herself, she might
not be understood. Better wait and
let that develop naturally. So she
stopped suddenly and sat looking at
Mrs. Ward quietly.
Mrs. Ward hesitated also. 1t was
an unusual situation. The girl had
given enough evidence of being all
right, especially if Prof. Whites rec
ommendation was good one. At the
same time, there was a great risk in
hiring a person of Barbara's evident
education and refinement. How far
would she want to become one of the
family? What relations would have
to be established between her and the
mistress?
But Mrs. Ward was thoroughly
tired out with succession of disap-
pointments in experiences with girls
who were incompetent, ungrateful
and dishonest. The suggestion to her
mind of good, honest, capable wom-
an in kitchen and house who could
relieve her of the pain of daily

but even from money point of
view, mother, such position as this is
not to be despised. If my services are
satisfactory, 1 can get SALTS or even
five dollars a week, and my board and

dentals thrown in. Suppose had

the offices downtown. I could not pos

of that take my board, lodging, wash

sibly save out of it over ten dollars
month. Whereas, working out at

in actual wages. If 1 go into Bond
mans store, for instance, as sales
clerk, I cannot get over five dollars

spoke again, it was with q yielding to

"It is only on some such condition

and stood up by her for moment in

kissed her mother, and then walked

his mother said: "Hush," and/in a

Mrs. Ward was beginning to note the
