The Charge of the Eleven,

Half a yard-half a yard
Half 3 yard onward.
All up and down that field,
Backward and forward.
Into the other team
Rushed that eleven.
Back came a number which
The quarter had given

The quarter back thundered.
Forward, McCluskey there"
No man was there dismayed- ttt. a
Although they were aware
Some one had fumbled.
Yours not to make reply:
Yours rot to reason why;
Yours but to do and die
The full back just mumbled.

Centre in front of him
The ball must be punted-
Tackled They had him sure
Down. They had just one more;
They line up as before
More men are wounded.
Arms gone and legs are smashed,
But they play-not abashed:
Some men their heads had gaShed.
The spectators wondered.

No one in front this time,

Oh. that great run he made.
The world applauded.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

Innocence is as innocence doesn't.
There is no way to make sour milk
sweet nor an old maid either.
The pleasantest surprise is the slim girl
who is not sim in spots.
A girls appetite for steak and fried
potatoes is sign that she has no secret
love affairs.
The wofan that knows how to manage
a man also knows how to keep him from
knowing she does it.

A Calais youth who is keeping COM

B., had a rather hair-lifting experience
the other evening as he was returning
from a visit to the home of his adored
one, if his story is to be believed, and
he solemnly declares that he had re-
ligiously stunned all kinds of stimu-
lants during the evening. While cross
ing the Union bridge which is some
distance from his home, he began to
experience creeping sensation
traversing his spine and, turning sud-
denly around to discern if danger
menaced him, was Mortified to behold,
almost at his elbow, the headless body
of man. Too much unnerved to
move, he stood and stared at the grew
some apparition until his courage had,
in manner, returned, then he de-
manded in the name of all the saints,
the reason why the uncanny spectre
had interrupted the pleasing trend OF
his thoughts. Only the echo of his
own words answered him and, sudden
ly recollecting that his business re-
quired that he be up in the morning at
an early hour, he started hOmewards
at a swinging gate. But the headless
footman was slayer which no degree
of speed seemed to bother and, when

The Baby ana the Monkey.

Babies are very like little monkeys,
and we are least human when we are
youngest, writes e. S. Martin in Har-
per's. But by way of solace, and to
save our self-conceit if that has suf-
fered, they assure us that whereas the
little monkeys grow less and less like
humans every hour they grow, our
babies turn their backs on the monkey
type at the first squirm, and grow
away from it hand over fist during the
whole of their protracted period of de-
velopment. The monkey child's
strength runs to jaw and to length of
limb, and to agility and monkey ways.
The human child's nose asserts itself,
his brain grows and grows, and insists
on having room to expand in, and his
skull takes shape accordingly. He
finds his legs, and gradually puts them
to use, though in some children
strength comes to the legs very slow
ly. The learned doctors assure us, too,
that the period of upward develop
ment in which the child grows more
human all the time, and keeps putting
distance between himself and the mon
keys, is in infancy and early youth,
and that presently upward evolution
stops. and development becomes IAN
adaptation to the environment with.
out regard to upward geological move.
