Tho Winds at Play.
These many days the winds have been. at
play,
And they have swept the sky
Clear of all clouds that barred their bots-
ferrous way
And married their revelry!
With wild delight they yell as on they
sweep
Across the trembling deep.
They lash the sleeping ocean into foam.
They strip the tossing trees.
They rudely drive belated wanderers
home,
They tear across the leaS.
No rest for them-from dawn to even
song
Their mirth Is loud and long!
In ruined woods high carnival they ho4o;
The dry leaves pirouette,
giddy whirl of scarlet and OF gold!
Whilst down the rivulet,
Full to the brim, the russell spoils ana reo
Are to the ocean sped.
The golden elms to one another bend;
The revels wax apace,
The forest seems to dance from END TO
end.
The breeches interlace!
And for the orchestra to this mao crown
The winds are piping loud

A noted eastern photographer, who
caters to the theatrical profession, said
in a recent interview: "It seems TO
me that stage struck girls who think
life behind the footlights is one round
OF pleasure, might learn something
from studying the photographs of cele-
brated actresses. The actresses who
are always smiling and looking frivo-
tous in their pictures are almost in
Fariably of minor Importance. Even
Lillian Russell, who has for years
posed as a professional beauty, is
seldom photographed smiling. There
is a sadness in the expressions Of
most of the great actresses that even
the camera cannot overcome. Duse,
Bernhard and Ellen Terry, to mention
three foreign artists from three diff
ferent countries, are never smiling in
their photographs. Julia Marlowe
wears a perpetual frown, and Fanny
Davenport's mouth had droop that
suggested WEAKNESS and care. 1 might
also mention Ada Rehan. Annie Rus
sell. Julia Arthur, Minnie Maddern
Fiske and a host of others to illustrate
my point that the famous women Of
the stage look far from being happy"

Strike. Among Birds.

Birds are famous for "women's
rights" strikes-that is, the females
sometimes flock together, abandoning
or driving away the males, and refuse
to do any "housework" whatever.
They desert their nests and will not
finish building. They leave their eggs
to grow cold and unhatchable, and
nothing will induce them to return.
The male birds grow extremely con-
cerned at such times, but they have
no remedy, for throughout the beast
and bird creation the male will never
attack the female, though the opposite
often happens. Warblers and star
lings especially are given to these
female workers strikes"

Hottest Place on Earth.

The hottest place on earth is appar-
emily to be found on the southwestern
coast of Persia. There during forty
consecutive days in July and August
the mercury has been known to stand
above 100 degrees in the shade day
and night, and to ran to 100 in the
afternoon. In Bahrein island, which
is situated in the center OF this most
torrid part of the torrid zone, water
is unknown. Shafts have been sunk
to the depth of 500 feet in search Of
it but in vain.

The latest development in surgery
is the molding of noses in paraftin.
which is now being practiced in vi
emma. In the deformity known as
saddle nose the most remarkable re-
suits are said to be obtained. The
process consists in the simultaneous
injection of paraffin, which before 1t
completely sets is nodded into the
desired shape. A warmed syringe is
charged with the melted compound
and the needle is inserted between the
eyebrows, just above the root of the
nose Then the compound is injected
into the simultaneous tissues as the
needle is slowly withdrawn.

Could Not BE Chef.

The management of a woman's
club in London, after advertising for a
chef. received an application from an
individual who said he required no
wages. The committee was curious to
know the reason for so disinterested a
proposal, and learned that the candi-
date was a writer who desired to pro-
duce a book on women's clubs. The
committee promptly rejected his offer.
