THE HOUSE WHERE | WAS BORN.

Round the little old deserted house the
noisome weeds are growing,
And the wind unhindered wanders
through the broken eastern door:
Every rafter beam and sash and finger
marks Of Time is showing,
And Decay is running riot DER the rub
bish-covered floor.
Here a rotting pillar staggers; there an
aged beam is falling;
Over yonder says the mantelpiece, de-
jected and forIorn
There is helplessness pathetic and the
voice of Old Age calling
From each crumbling bit Of mortar in
the house where L was born.
Here before the ancient fireplace, where
the dust of years is lying,
first saw the future pictured as
watched the embers glow
Here l lay in boyish dreaming, while
the shadows fitting, flying,
We're a hundred ghosts of fancy as
they wandered to and fro;
Little knew 1 of the universe which
spread itself around me
In a canopy of azure and a sea Of
waving corn;
All my world was on the hearthstone
where my childhood dreaming
found me;
was king-and my dominion was the
house where | was born.

Mr.. Driver does call them weeds. Tell
me where they grow, that l may get

They are growing by the spring
just beyond that bit of swamp where
the big tree was blown down in the
last storm"
Il never knew so much of nature,
Mr.. Frye" said Howard Deane, but
from the enjoyment that you seem to
get out of it l believe it must be worth
cultivating. Some day l wish you'd
teach me how to get into the good
graces of the Mother"
That night Caleb Frye went to his
room early. He studied for Il while
and then became restless. He wan
dered out on to the porch and turned
the corner of the building. He heard
voices and listened involuntarily. The
voices were those of Howard Deane
and Frances barrow. He did not mean
to listen, but what he heard made him
know that what had been in his heart
must die.
Caleb Frye went to his room and
threw himself on his bed. The win
dow was open. Downward through
the night came the voices of migrat-
ing birds He heard the calling of
plover and the "chink" of the black
bird. 1.-The birds are flying from the
coming winter" he thought to himself,
"but for me the winter has already
come"
The next morning the ranchman and
his two men guests stood on the porch.

RACE WITH A MOOSE.
Mr.. Judkins' Odd Experience on a
Highway in Maine.

highway In Nj 1ncs
Ernest G. Judkins, bOokkeeper for
the Kineo company, had a remarkable
experience with a bull moose on the
carriage road to Deer Head Farm, two
miles from here, early in the week.
Mr.. Judkins was taking morning
ride, galloping along a level stretch,
when the horse came to a sudden stand
still with jolt and a snort Looking
ahead Mr.. Judkins saw large bull
moose feeding on the tender sprouts
of the bushes growing by the roadside,
not sixty yards away. The moose ap-
parently did not see the horse and
rider.
Mr.. Judkins' first impulse was to
ride the moose down, but he thought
better of this and hooted to attract
the animals attention, and possibly
brighten him from the road so that he
could proceed, but the moose fed calm
ly ON. At the end of a few minutes
the beast moved down the road in
search Of more food, and Mr.. Judkins
followed at a respectful distance, boot
ing until his throat was hOarse. This
process was repeated over half mile
of road
At the end Of that distance the
moose faced about and began feeding
toward the horse and rider, casting an
unconcerned look in their direction
every now and then, and Mr.. Judkins'
steed did the backstep for a few rods.
This was a little too much for the
hOrseman, and, becoming impatient,
he shouted to attract the attention Of
the moose, plunged spurs into his
