Noliving person is better qualified than
Mr.. Graham (author of Schley and San
tiago') to write intellgently of this thrill
ing experience. The partisans Of Schley
will find much satisfaction in reading this
book, as it contains an account by an eye
witness and places the credit where il
rightly belongs. While the narrative is
intensely interesting, the work will be Of
much historical value, and should be read
by all patriotic Americans, both young
and old.-Oil City Blizzard.

Itwould be thought thatin the supreme
moment Of the great naval victory, with
the whole fighting strength of the Spanish
navy scattered along the adjacent coast,
the American sailors exuberantly cheer
ing Schley, feeling of triumph in every
heart, Admiral Sampson would have been
generous in his conduct toward Schlev,
even if after deliberation he might natu-
rally be expected TO belittle Schley's part
in the battle but even then Sampson was
cold, took no notice of the signals of the
Brooklyn, and ignored Schley's personal
request through the megaphone that he
be allowed to accept the surrender of the

GEORGE e. GRAHAm,s BOOK.

If the test of good book is that it shall
have the power which carries the reader
with it, this new history, "Schley and San
tiago," leaves nothing to be desired. No
one can read it without smelling the pow
der, hearing the roar of the guns, and feel
ing some frenzy of battle. It is fine
story told simply and very convincingly.
"Schley and Santiago is book that ev-
cry American should desire possess. II
contains the sort of a story that will stir
the spirit of patriotism in the heart of ev-
cry American lad. 1t moves the reader
by its directness. The facts the book con-

DoN'Ts FOR GIRLS.

Don't ignore instinct. God has en-
dowed woman with it for her own good.
Don't borrow money or jewels from
your chums; the first you may find diff
ficult to pay, the last, if lost, must be
replaced.
Don't rob your old father of comforts
in order to be stylish. The 'wage-earner
should be given his rights before fash
ion has her privileges.
Don't take liberties with verify. Men
especially shun girls who exaggerate.
Don't go out with men unless you are
well acquainted with their habits. sta
ton in life, even financial position in a
degree, for you may be taking from
another needed expenditure.
Don't touch any sort of beverage that
has alcohol in it in public cafe unless
your mother or male relative is with
you. Scandal turks in cafes habitually.
Don't stare. Girls do too often, then
unjustly resent return stares from
strangers.
Don't wear jewels in the morning;
the nobodies do, and if you glitter IN
daylight you will be taken for no.

Don't swing your arms while walk

coarse Girls think it looks athletic.
Don't permit men to use your name
Familiarity. Be self-respecting in order

Don't boast. If you are one of the

boasting is vulgar
Don't use superlatives. Reposeful
girls who are used to the things of life
that are desirable admire, but never

Don't go into debt; it is remorseless;
it robs one of sleep; it turns day into
night, and it harnesses brain and body.
Better a few things paid for than
many with debts.
Don't be moody. The blues are often

THE LAND OF MAKE BELIEVE.

To the gates of Dawn. how gladly
Would the grayheads all go back
And, among the little children,
For while forget the racki
How their purblind eyes would brighten
How their hearts with joy would heave
Could they once again be jewellers
in the Land of Make Believe!
o, what treasures that a Croesus
Has amassed can equal those
That before the gaze of childhood,
As by magic, once arose?
All are rich If but they will be.
All possess what they perceive
To life's largest there's no limit
In the Land of Make Believe.
What a land it is to live in,
Where a palace is as cheap
As a hovel-where the littlest
May with giant strides o'erleap
Highest nights! Tho bringing knowl-
edge,
How the flying years bereave
Us of all our happy dwellings
In the Land of Make Believed
Still so surious is the human
Zen in childhood-oft he goes
Far outside joys sphere, is weeping
Ger imaginary woes;
For the one that's born a poet
Tho hesknows not why, must grieve
Ger the tears that fall outside of
The right Land of Make Believe!

ANCIENT GAMES OF sAvAGEs.

The little SaVageS of years gone by
were much more fond of and devoted
to games and sports than we are now
adays Perhaps that was because they
hadn't as much to do as the people OF
modern times. The rougher the game
was, the more they liked it.
The ancient Australians most pop
ular sport was a wild game called
Marn Crook. 1t was very much like
football, only, if possible, rougher.
They had ball made of skins. There
were no goals, and the object of the
game was for each side to keep the
ball in its possession, and this often
resulted in a small battle, for as many
as liked could play, an even number
being on each side.
Then these same people used a Curl
Gus little toy called a ''weet," and
throwing the wee weet'' was one of
their favorite pastimes. This resem-
bles our putting the shot only the
weet was small and light and could be
thrown to an incredible distance.
The inhabitants of Tonga, also saw
ages, had a game which the boys and
girls of Scotland play today. One per-
son would hold some small article be-
hind his back, and another would try
to guess which hand it was in. The
Scotch have written this verse to it:
Nievie. Nievie, Nick Mack;
which hand will We tax?
Be We rigcht or be We wrang
I'll beguile ye if I can.
If a person were clever enough to
change the article from hand to hand
he kept it, but if his opponent guessed
rightly it was forfeited.

THE LITTLE NEwsBoY.

(Mar1e Reisdorfer.)
On dark and wintry night,
In crowded city street,
There among 4 throng so bright
A lonely child l CHANGED to meet.
All the day he had been playing
Amid the city's crowded din.
All through the hours he had been crying
But no one cared nor needed him.
The Chicago News: the Chicago News, sir
The Chicago News, just one cent.
Till his voice grew hoarse. and hoarser;
Till his cries with tears were bent.
Then he stood beneath the gaslight,
I'm that gay and crowded street,
All around We're gay and bright.
But none cared the child to greet.
Then trembling with cold and fear,
Te dark and dismal alley went,
While down his cheek rolled many q tear
As to a dry goods box, his steps, he
bent.
He had found peace and love.
Ere the morning sun had shone,
He had been in bliss above,
He had found another home
Thus. in the daily course of life,
Such little ones we often meet
Who in bitter toll and strife
Kind words with JOY would greet.
Let US take them to our heart.
For these, his precious blood was given,
Then from them let us never part
But lead them on to heaven.

no other house near.
Shortly after the Desmonds moved

front yard full of roses. Percy loved
those flowers. He stopped TO admire
them as he was passing by. Ralph

IRELAND IN THE SPRING

Oh far away in Ireland now
The soft spring breezes blow,
From dewey spangled bough to Dough
The birds fly TO and fro.
With chirp and trill the air they fill
All me- how sweet they singi-
The world is glad and music-mad
In ireland in the spring!
Oh, far away in Ireland there
Are laughing streams that flow
Through verdant valleys where the fair
Sweet-scented hawthorns grow.
And every breeze that stirs in these
Is sure a shower to firing
Of blossoms white as snow at night
In Ireland in the spring!
oh. far away in Ireland rise
The distant mountain peaks
And many a raptured eye describes
The Galtees and the Reeks;
What varied hues of misty blues
On slope and summit cling,
What shine and shade in glen and glade
III Ireland in the spring.
oh, far away in ireland I
Am fain to be today.
Beneath the tender Irish sky
Where once ! used to stray.
The live-long year I'm happy here
Until the robins sing.
All, then | sigh for wings to fly
To Ireland in the spring.

There are loyal hearts. there are spirits

There are souls that are pure and true:
Then give to the world the best you have
And the best will come back to you.
Give love, and love to your life will flow,
A strength in your utmost need;
Have faith and score of hearts will

Their faith in your word and deed.
Give truth and your gift will be7paid in

And honor will honor meet.
And a smile that is sweet will surely find

OLD CORK BESIDE THE LEE.

Stately cities rise in splendor
Der the land wherein l dwell,
And they waken feelings tender
In the hearts that love them we'll
Some from 'Frisco's golden gateway,
Some from Boston and New York,
But IvowI' leave them straightway
For glimpse of dear old Cork!
Yes, their glOries I'd abandon
Once again the soil to stand on,
From which rise the walls of Shandon,
Far across the spreading sea,
Once again to see the city
Where the boys are brave and witty,
And the girls are sweet and pretty,
In old Cork beside the Lee!
Stately cities rise in splendor
Ger the world from pole to pole,
But l never will surrender
That old city of my soul;
She is neither Rome nor Venice,
Neither London nor New York,
But where'er my tongue or pen is
/ will hymn the praise of Cork
Yes, wherever I may wander,
Still my heart will ever ponder
On that old town over yonder,
Far across the spreading sea,
On that famous Irish city,
Where the boys are brave and witty,
And the girls are sweet and pretty,
In old Cork beside the Lee!
Should again our land in splendor
From her lowly state arise,
Flinging forth-may God defend heri-
Her green banner to the skies.
Many exiles would be thronging
Back from Boston and New York,
Just to satisfy their longing
For a glimpse of dear old Corki
All. there would be no delaying
Those whose hearts for years were pray
ing
On the Mardyke to go straying
As in days of youth and glee,
In that charming Irish city, =
Where the boys are brave and witty,
And the girls are sweet and pretty,
In old Cork beside the Lee!
