MORNING SONG.
(By Johanna Bailey

(By Johanna Bailey
Up, quit thy bower, late wears the hour,
Long have the rocks cawed round the tower.
Ger flower and tree loud huns the bee,
And the wild kid sports me-rily.
The sun is bright, the sky IS clear;
Wake lady, wakel and hasten here.
Up maiden fairi and bind thy hair,
And rouse thee in the breezy air!
The lulling stream that soothed thy dream
Is dancing in the sunny beam.
Waste not these hours, so fresh, so gay:
Leave thy soft couch and haste away.
Up, Time will tell the morning bell
Its service-sound has chm-ed well;
The aged crone keeps house alone,
The reapers to the fields are gone
Lose not these hours so cool, so gay:
Lo, while thou sleepst they haste away

RAscALITY IN POsToFFlCE DEPARTMENT.


When President Grant in the early seventies gave
the injunction Let no guilty man escape" to the
officers who were investigating certain frauds in
connection with the government service the remark
rang throughout the country. 1t was accepted as
evidence of the determination the part of the
President that nobody should be spared who might
be found guilty.
In the present investigation of the postofice de-
partment there is apparently the same disposition
to expose anything in the way of corruption or
irregularity that may be discovered.
1t is to be assumed furthermore, that the Presi-
dent viii approve anything which be done in the
way at getting the facts Thus far little informa
ton has been given to the public. though it is limited
that certain attaches Of the department have been
implicated in irregular transactions. 1t is signif-
cant, moreover, that the postmaster of New York
has been ordered to withhold large number of pro-
motions in his Office which had been approved, to-
gether with the appointment of large number of
new clerks. 1t is only possible to guess why this
has been done.
But it is to be hoped that this investigation will
continue until all the facts have been disclosed.
1t is necessary. furthermore. that every official who
is found be culpable shall be punished The peo-
pie have become somewhat used to irregularities in
the conduct Of municipal Offices but they will not
be any more ready, on that account to excuse or
overlook irregularities in high places. Dishonesty
Of kind in the federal service should be promptly
and emphadcally rebuked and it will be unless

Rooseyelt's character as a man and citizen.

Women Who Live as Men.

In all countries and in all ages there
have been women who lived as men
without their secret being discovered
Perhaps the bes> known instance Is
that Of the celebrated James Barry.
In the early part of the last century
this person was actually serving as a
doctor in the English army. While
employed in this capacity she was
stationed successfully in South Africa,
Malta and the West Indies. At Cape
Town, ON one occasion, she fought a
duel with an officer who had taunted
her with effeminacy! Authentic in
stances of women serving as soldiers,
without their sex being known, are
furnished by the official records of the
Civil War. Among the cases brought
to light is that Of Charlotte Lindley.
who, as a private soldier, took part in
the battles of Fort Magruder and Bull
Run. Another woman, Frances Day
by name, attained the rank of SER
geant, and was killed in action. On
several occasions two soldiers were
discharged from the army on account
of their being found to be women.
Among the different vocations which
American women, while successfully
posing as men, have followed may be
mentioned those Of mining, hair cut
ting, printing, boOkbinding and piano
tuning.

said: I've kept track Of you, Mr..

on his face as he mounted the steps

Dorothy came forward, her face
showing white in the half light Of the
room, and with a frightened look in
her eyes. Then the look fled. she went
forward. Grandpa" she said, and
held out both hands. The old man
kissed her quickly with something Of
yearning in his look.
There was something stern in STAN

did l not know this?"
Dorothy turned, and the old man
quickly left the room. you ought to

softly.

went straight to the room Of Mrs.
Banks. He was there about fifteen
minutes.

old man in a business suit sat at the
