y. F.l1ridgc Monroe eiyc, the fol
lowing account Of an amusing incident
at q temperance meeting in Topeka,
Kansas, during the successful poiiti
cal campaign Of st. John the noted
Prohibitonst, for governor Of that
State in 1875:
"Iwas in Topeka one evening dur
ing the campaign and lcarncd that a
big temperance meeting in the inter
est Of St. John was to be held in one
Of the largest churches in the city.
determined to attend the meeting.
My friend, Colonel A., prominent
citizen Of Topeka, informed me early
in the evening that lie also would at
tend the meeting, but probably would
not arrive until late.
Now, the colonel was known as
genial, polished gentleman, and, with
al, one not averse to partaking Of the
cup that both cheers and incbriates,
although, as | was crcdibly informed,
he was never known to be intoxicated.
He was said, however, to be one Of
the best judges and one Of the most
apprcciative consumers Of good liquor
in the State. Finally the time came
when the coloncl's physician prohi-
bitcd him from using any malt or
spirituous liquors whatever. This
was Il severe denial for the colonel,
but he promised to follow the doctor $
directions.
1t speedily became known through
out the town that the colonel had be-
come Il total abstaincr. When he ar
rived ut the meeting al usher con-
Quoted him to front seat and q
preacher who was making an address
broke the thread Of his remarks and
said
/ pause here, my friends, to
greet distinguished citizen who, I'm
Informed, has recently become re-
cruit to our ranks. All honor to Col
onel a. His course in the step he
has taken merits our highest admira-
ton and he is entitled to our warmest
sympathy. In the noble determine
tion he has reached, we see the triumph
OF conscience over appetite. The
contest, have no doubt, was severe
one, but conscience won, and to-day
he is total abstainer.'
"These words Of the preacher were
followed by tumultuous applause
from the audience. AS soon as the
applause had subsided the colonel, to
the no little astonishment of every
body present, slowly and With much
dignity arose. Then looking at the
preacher, he gravely and deliberately
said
"Mr. Preacher, I thank you. You
have stated the matter admirably, so
far as the manner is concerned. Yet
you have, doubtless without intcn-
ton, misstated the facts. l am a
total abstaincr by the doctors orders.
because my stomach went back on me.
1t ism t my conscience that makes me
tcetotaier, but my stomach only my
stomach.
Then Colonel \. calmly reSum, d
his seat and when the laughter cxcit-
ed By his remarks nad subsidized the
preacher went on with his address,
but the colonel was not referred to
again. Baltimore sun.

A Mental Family Tree.

We were talking in the schoolyard about
our family trees,
And Gertrude said hers could be traced
to Sir Horatio Freeze,
And Rufe said he'd descended from the
governor of state,
And Louie mentioned ancestors OF hers
about as great,
While Reggie said his lineage embraced
lord he knew,
And Nell from her ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
obtained her blood so blue,
But neither of the little Smiths could say
single word:
For them to boast their ancient name of
course would be absurd.
Then teacher, smiling slightly, said that
she was much inclined
To think that there was such thing as
blue blood of the mind
That those who studied hard (and here
she beamed on Tommy SMITH
Had certainly descended from men of
force and pith,
And those who loved to tend the sick and
serve the weak and frail
Were morally related to Florence Nightin-
gale.
CHere Jennie Smith blushed to the ears)
And when she saw youth
(Iow bright she smiled at Johnny SmithD
who always told the truth
At school, at home or when he was at
work or having fun
She knew him for relative OF General
Washington.
But Reggie doesn't like such talk; he says
1t seems to throw
So much responsibility upon yourself, you
know.

panion.

THE COPYRIGHT LAW.
First Measure Passed For the Pro.
lection of Literary Property.

First Measure Passed For the Pro-
lection of Literary Property.
April 10, 1710, is a noteworthy date
in the history of literature. On that
day came into operation an act 'for
the encouragement of learning by vest
ing the copies of printed books in the
authors or purchasers of such copies.
This was the first measure passed for
the protection of literary property.
The word copyright" according to
DR.. Murray, was not used before 1867.
In the preamble of the bill, which is
said to have been drafted by Dean
Swift, the necessity Of measure ITO
enable learned men to write useful
books" is dwelt upon. BY its pro
visions two terms of copyright, each
of fourteen years, were created for all
future publications, one term to follow
Immediately upon the other if the al.
thor were still living at the expiration
of the first term.
According to a subsidiary clause, il
any publisher issued book at price
Judged too high by certain discreet
persons" he was liable to a penalty
The discreet persons" included, among
others, the archbishop of Canterbury,
the lord chancellor and the vice chan
cellors of oxford and Cambridge. On
them devolved the somewhat delicate
task Of fixing the books value. This
clause was repealed in 1879, but the
term of copyright remained unaltered
until 1912, when it was extended to the
life of the author and seven years, or
forty-two years from the date of publ.
cation, whichever may prove longer.
England was the first country thus TO
protect the rights of autho0s. France
followed suit in 1893, but in Germany
no copyright law existed until 1870

AN OWL STORY.

An English publication tells this in.
teresting story of an OWL
a vague figure appeared out of the
clouds. travelling against the wind to-

ragged piece of newspaper whirled
about the heavens than any living

watching him for some time | came to
the conclusion that he was trying 10
get TO the vane of the spire. A very
idle ambition it seemed. for. although
he succeeded again and again in get
ting to within few yards of the
point aimed at, he was on each occa.

driven back TO a great distance. often
quite out of sight in the gloom. But
presently he would rcappear, still
struggling to reach the vane. A crazy

But l could not help admiring his
pluck and greatly wondered what his
secret motive in aiming at that windy
perch could be. And ut last. after 50
many defeats. he succeeded ana
grasped the metal crossbar with his
crooked talons. The wind with all lis
fury could not tear him from ii. and
after little tapping he was able To
pull himself up. and then. bending
down, he deliberately wiped his hcak
on the bar and flew away,
This, then. had been his powerful.

a certain seaside resort with his team
Early on the third morning of the mate
he was taking a constitutional on th

ing cricket.
AT their request he consented to bow
down a ball or two. He took sevet4
wickets in a very little time. after which
the youngsters suggested the he should
have his innings.
He agreed, and the game came to 40
abrupt conclusion, as he managed L

selves? If you are not, l am ashamed
of you, and if you ever do anything of
this kind again I'll send you over to
Plum Hollow to the reform school for
bad little bears. AS for Nipper, he's
too young to send there, but not too
young to be punished, and as soon as
the teacher goes home we'll talk this
matter over again. In the morning the
teacher will talk it over, too. and by
that time | think you will both be of
the opinion that it always pays to be
honest.

A School on n New Plan,

A school for boys is to be opened at
Winona Lake. Ind, which is said TO
be the first of its kind in the west.
The object of the institution is to af-
ford the boys who have no money the
opportunity of gaining practical edu-
cation that will enable them to go to
work Immediately. Several wealthy
men have contributed fund sufficient
to put up the buildings and pay the
running expenses for five years. The
institution will have two departments

As Others See You.

If woman wishes to see herself in
the mirror as others see her with the
eye, or as nearly 50 rs possible, she
should keep the surface of her glass
highly polished and have a plentiful
supply of white-not cream-gauze of
fine Indian lawn. Gather the material
at the center of the top and let it fall
on either side, framing the glass with
soft folds of pure white. \ draped
mirror always gives Il more becoming
reflection than one with u hard frame.

THE HEART OF THE WOODS.

When April skies have lost their gloom.
And through the woods there runs thrill
That wakes arbutus into bloom.

muftied murmur on the breeze,
Like mellow thunder leagues away,
booming voice of distant seas.
In daisied June catch its roll
Pulsing through the leafy shade,
And fain am to reach its goal
And see the drummer unafraid.
Or when the autumn leaves are shed
And frosts attend the fading year,
Like secret mine sprung by my tread,
covey bursts from hiding near.
feel its pulse mid winter SHOWS
And feel my own with added force
When red ruff drops his cautious pose
And forward takes his humming course.
The startled birches shake their eurls;
withered leaf leaps in the breeze;
Some hidden mortar speaks and hurls
Its feathered missile through the trees.
Compact of life, Of fervent wing,
dynamo of feathered power,
Thy drum is music in the spring,
Thy fight is music every hour.
