IIEREDITY.

Little Willie is a wonder,
So his parents say.
Tries 10 stay awake all night
And wants TO steep an day.
Likes 10 exercise his lungs,
WhoOp it up and slual:
Makes more noise than some folks DO

WiIiIe's brow is very high;
Willic's hair is thin;
Willie wants 20 be the boss
OF all his kith and kin.
Yet his fathers very proud
Proud as he can be
As he murmurs, Folks all say
That boy takes after mel"

Missing Father Cirringione Discovered
 Early Yesterday Morning. 4 New York. Nov. 16.-Rev. Father Jo- seph Cirringione, rector of the Italian Church of the Immaculate Conception, in Williamsbridge was found in Man. haitian early this morning, by Police man Cook at Fffty-first street and First avenue.
 The priest was standing near a fire box and acting strangely. When asked by the patrolman if he was Father Cir ringione, he replied: "Yes. I want to go to the hospital" e...
 An ambulance was summoned and the priest began raving again.
 "They are after me. They want to kill me-" he cried. -'-.]. E.
 It was then decided to take him to the station house. There the priest be- came coherent for few moments and said: &.'
 Last Friday night two men, who said they were detectives, came to my house and asked me to go with them. They suddenly covered my mouth with a cloth and took me to cellar and robbed me. They will get me yet. They will kill me-"
 Then the priests speech 1apsed into incoherency again. He was taken to St. Vincent's hospital for treatment. The police believe that Father Cir ringione has lost his mind and that his story of abduction and robbery is a phantasy of a disordered mind

THE FARMER IN WINTER.

He Has Duties and Labors for That
 Season as for the Others.
 The great steady winter jobs on an American farm in the north nowadays are feeding the stock and keeping warm. And keeping warm nowadays means hauling coal. When I lived in the country it meant cutting wood. It meant, for our large family, constant teaming day after day from the woods to the wood yard, and wood-pile that must have covered a quarter of an acre. It meant, towards spring, the coming of men with a horse power and buzz saw to cut firewood, and that was almost as. interesting an operation as threshing.
 There were other stirring days when the lake had frozen hard and the ic house was filled, involving ice cutting, and more teanling, and more precarious hitching on behind loads and going back in empties. And early in the winter there was the rnomentous and gory kill ing of pigs. Oh, that was indeed stir- ring time! They kill pig every sec- ond, no doubt, in Chicago nowadays, but that is mere mechanical routine, with no quality of sport in it.
 There was nothing so very slow about the country winters in days as late as the civil war. suppose soap making as domestic industry is as dead as household spinning. In those times of wood fires and wood ashes all self-re- specting families made soap. Our fam fly had an outstanding kitchen express ly for that use, with a big cistern-like hogshead behind it in which ashes were leached, and convenient tubs for hold ing the soft soap. A very handsome substance is soft soap of the proper con- sistency and complexion, and pleasing exercise it used to be for the young to stir it with stick and watch it's undu- lations. All the superfiuous fat of meat from our kitchen was turned into soft soap in those nearby old times.-Har- per's Magazine.

YALE , FRENcH PLAY.

The production of Moliere's 'rLe Med- ecin Malgie Lui'' by the Yale French club on December 2 at College street hall promises to be one of the most in- teresting events of the fall term. Moliere stands without an equal in French literature and his plays have such a hold upon all people that their popularity increases from year to year. Le Medecin Malgie Lui, a charming farce founde upon an old fabian, was first presented at the Royal Palace theater. 26th of August. 1866, and met with the greatest success from the first performance.
 Moliere had travelled through all the provinces and cities of France, he knew men and their habits and they appealed to him in such real way and at the some time humorous fashion that he was able to hold his audiences by the extreme trueness of the half comic, half serious character he presented. His plays show this genius. They will al- ways hold the stage and if possible are more charming in the performance than in the reading.
 The rehearsals for the play have been gone through with in the finest spirit and the final cast will be announced in a few days. Several of last years cast are back, and these together with some exceptional new men present the strong est cast the club has yet been enabled to offer.
 The costumes are being designed by Van Horn & Son of New York, after drawings made by Mrs. William Lyon Phelps at a performance of Le Mede- cin Malgie Liu at the Comedie Fran caise September 3, 1903. Therefore the costumes and wigs. owing to Mrs. Phelps kindness, will be an exact re- production of those used in Paris. Seats will be placed on sale in few days at Judd's, the Yale Coop, and with c. H. Young, 331 White hall. Spec ial seats will be reserved for the patron esses, list of whom will be announced soon. The price os seats will be one dollar.

AN OLD TIMER
Has Had Experiences

A woman who has used Postum Food Coffee since it came upon the market eight years ago, knows from experience the necessity of using Postum in place of coffee, if one values health and a steady brain.
 She says: At the time Postum was first put on the market was suffering from nervous dyspepsia and my physi- elan had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally decided to take his advice and try Postum, and got a sample, and had it carefully prepared, finding 1t delicious to the taste. So continued It's use and very soon it's ben eficial effects convinced me of its value for got we'll of my nervousness and dyspepsia. ... ...
 My husband had been drinking cof- fee all his life until it had affected his nerves terribly. | persuaded him to shift to Postun1 and it was easy to get him to make the change, for the Post unl is so deliecious. It certainly work ed wonders for him.
 aWe soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate or depress, and does not stimulate but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stom- ach. To make long story short our entire family have now used Postum for eight years with completely satis- flying results as shown in our fine con- dition of health, and we have noticed a rather unexpected improvement in brain and nerve power" Name given by Postunl Go, Battle Creek, Mich.
 Increased brain and nerve power all ways follow the use of Postum in place of coffee, sometimes in very marked manner.
