HONORlNG THE PRINCE.

Henry's Engine Didn't "Tank Up" in
Miggsville, Sad to Relate.
The little hamlet of Miggsville was
greatly excited. Prince Henry, the
kaiser's handsome sailor brother, was
to visit the tiny village. and everybody
was in CULVER Miggsville was wa
ter station, and it might take all of
ten minutes for the locomotive to tank
up, and during that time the prince
would be with them.
They're bound to stop for water, >
said John Wilmington, the station mas
ter.
We'll, there's one thing certain-they
won't stop for beer" said Jim Pettus, a
gray-haired louAger.
Miggsville is dry town.
I'm bet Jim thinks it's "A pity tibet
locomotives don't tank up at brew'r-
ies," said Cy Braggns, as he sliced a
fresh silver from pine packing case.
"Well, O course we got to do some
thin" said Ike Selvidge, who was
widely recognized as a hustling citizen.
I'VE want to show our friendly feeling
same as the other places. We've got to
get up program"

Abe Barnum.

"The band" snorted Pete. "Why,

EMMY.
And so on the eventful day the sta
ton at Miggsvlle was Il lively sight.
Pretty nearly everybody in town was
there, the academy girls We're drawn
up in line. each with flag. the leading
citizens in their best clothes filled the
background, and at one corner stood
the band. seven men strong.
There was a hOarse boot, a distant
rumble, preliminary cheer. and then
an awful turmoil Of sound paralyZed
the listening ears. 1t was the Miggs
vile cornet band playing the "Wacht
am Rhein." with variations.
On came the roaring train. On, on,
and then, with wild screech, it flew
by and was gone.
THAT derned band skeered the loco

And then. says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, everybody went home.

THE BABIES BEDTIME.

Sweet are children in the morning, in the
afternoon or night,
in their dainty frocks of red Ind blue,
or gowns of simple whit..:
In their play up in the playroo',, in the
yard or on the lawn,
Blu. they're sweetest when it's bedtime,
and they get their "nighties" ON.
Little ghosts of white a-romping DER the
bed and through the room.
In the season of Il lifetime they're the
rosy month of June;
Little ghosts of white a-marching to the
music of their laugh.
And the one who e'cr would miss it sees
in life its minor half.
Little curls a-dangling frowsy-to the
heads a fitting wreath.
Little gowns Arranging loosely, and the
peeping feet beneath;
Merry monarchs of the household and
their love is as the fawn.
And they're sweetest when it's bedtime
and they've got their "nighties' on.
Oh. the clear notes of their laughter, and
the patter of their feet
AS they rornp and chase each other in the
game of hide and seek
Gives a hint of faint suspicion of the
world that is to be.
For the Master taught us, saying: "Suf-
fer these TO come to me-"
Soon fatigue o'ercomes the players. and
the white brigade is still.
And the Nov lay me- whispered with
a pleading and Il will.
Oh, the wee tots are in slumber and their
dreams are in repose.
For the clearncss of IL conscience rivals
beauties of the rose.
And the white. upturned. sweet visage
adds to innocence the charm
OF the soul reposing trust upon the guar
dian angels arm;
Oh, the sweetest-scented nectar flowing
from this life is gone,
If you cannot see the babies when they
get their "nighties' on.

BRAIN WORK AND OLD AGE,
In Realms of Art and Music 1t Would
Seem Not to Shorten Life.

There is a theory eXtant that excess
sive brain work wears out the body
faster than physical labor. but it is
theory that is met with a contradiction
in the world of art and music. The
great composers and the famous paint
ers seem to defy age and are reaped
only when they have lived for many
years on borrowed time.
Michael Angelo was made architect
of st. Peters at the age Of II. Most
men are nearly through at that nile
stone, but he held the office under four
ropes and died In his Goth year. There
was Andrea Della Robbia who painted
sweet faced, plump cherubs that were
and are the admiration Of the world.
He kept on painting cherubs and al
most forgot to die. He passed away
at the age of SO. Canova died at 10 and
the famous Verboeckhoven at 80.
Thing of Titan. whose colors were
the marvel of the world. He was found
painting in his studio at 50 and royalty
entertained a king of France at 81.
He was so hale and robust that the end
! seemed far off. but he was cut down by
the plague.
Recently Thomas Sidney Cooper died
in London. He measured his life by
his achievements. not years He was a
truly great painter, and his first pic
ture was hung in the academy in 1888.
He was man then and age didn't him
der his hand, for his last painting found
its place in the academy in 1900. He
finished it at the age of 81 and died at

complaint about everything connected

pecially emphatic concerning the pauc-

never could find anything there that he
