THE TRUCK PATCH.

You may bend your heads to listen to the
whisper of the trees,
You can lie a-feelln dopey I'm the dronin'
of the bees,
You can talk of mornin glories hangin
swayin' on their stems
An of violets a-noddin' crowned with dewy
dadems-
ALI of which is sweet, l grant you-swayln'
bloom and dronin' bee,
But the little truck patch yonder sings
sweeter song to me.
i jest like ter sink my face in the sweet
crinkly lettuce rows
Till ! rise red-cheeked an smilin' with the
dew drops on my nose;
Bet l love the fresh sweet lettuce with Its
crisp and crinkly ways,
Bet at these here days of springtme are
my green an salad days,
when ! putter 'mongst the trellises to coax
the climbln' pea
Bet that little oil truck garden sings glory
song to me!
Like to tumble where strawberries are Jest
sorter hidin' out,
An where green big bellied cabbages are
whisperin' of krout,
An the little oil crisp radishes an onions
snuggle down.
There's poem in potatoes when their tops
are turning brown!
could almost sing an anthem to the
luscious black-eyed pea,
AN the roastin' ears o. springtme-bet they
all appeal to me!
Bet the larkspur an the violet are pretty
things and sweet,
But they simply aren't in 1t when you're
cravin' stuff to eat,
An the perfumed breeze stirs sweetly in
the knee-deep prairie grass
But theys nothin sways my heartstrings
like n patch o. garden sass!
You kin prance across the prairie sinGin'
loud an clear an free,
But theys nothing but a truck patch sings
half glad enough fer me.

A WONDERFUL RECORD.
Az q Deserter, the Man Herein Men-
toned Was the Best of
Them All.

Professional bounty-jumpers were
developed during the civil war, but it
may be doubted if any one of them dis
played so much activity in his profess
sion as Harry E. Mason has shown as
an enlister and deserter during the
past two years, says the New York
Sun. On February Is, 1901, Mason en-
listed in the army at Brooklyn, and
on April deserted. On April IS of the
same year, under the name of Harry
e. Lowe, he enlisted at Detroit, and
deserted the same day. Then he
waited a year-at least he seems to
have done so; but on April 2S, 1902, as
Harry Edwards, he enlisted at Phil
adelphia, only to desert five days later,
on May 3, on which day he enlisted at
Louisville as Harry Briggs, to desert
on May Z. Coming to this city, he en-
listed as Harry Dubois on July 25, 1902,
and deserted on July 20. AT Mobile, on
March 21 of this year, he enlisted un-
der the name of Harry E, Bates, and
deserted at Jefferson barracks on
March 27. The day before his depart
ure, however, he had gone to ST. Louis
and enlisted as Harry Hastings; but on
the way to Columbus barracks he de-
serted again, and hurried to Cincin-
natl, where, as Harry Lewis, he en-
listrI for the eighth tiase, on April 2,
only to desert while en- route to Co
lumbus barracks.
AS no bounty is given for enlist
ments, and as he could have drawn pay
only during his first enlistment, the
reason for his performances is not

magnificent mansion occupied by

the interests of the confederation),

ner as we were capable of assuming,
we asked the elder lady if we could
get anything to eat. In a very naughty,
positive manner she replied that we
could not.
We forthwith proceeded to argue the
case, like greedy lawyer with a good
case. Finally she changed her tactics
and pleaded poverty, saying that they
were themselves actually starving;
that they had nothing in the house
to eat, and didn't know what they
were going to do. In some houses we
would have believed this; but, consid-
ering all the manifest indications of
comfortable circumstances, was fully
convinced that she was not telling the
truth, and that she was only too anX-
ious to get rid of us; so l determined
to satisfy my curiosity andIhunger, too,
at once, if possible, and ordered my
squad to search the house for some-
thing to eat while 1 entertained the
ladies'. The said ladies strongly pro-
tested against this proceeding; but it
was of no use. The search went on,
just the same, and with very satisfac-
| tory results-on our part.
Plenty of good bread, meat, sugar
and other good things We're found, on
which we feasted bountifully, as also
did our haversacks. We returned to
camp with light hearts, contemplating
another good, square meal or two.
And yet we did not leave the ladies
without anything to eat" 1t is not
at all probable they ever starved to
death.

SCIENCE OF PACKING.
Very Few Women Are Familiar vvltA
1t, Although It Ia n COmpara-
lively Easy Task.

Before commencing the actual pack
ing of a trunk it is a very good plan to
collect in one room and in plain view
everything that is to be placed in the
trunk. You will then see exactly what
you have to find accomm odation for,
and nothing will be forgotten.
Something soft and fiat should pave
the trunk--a warm petticoat, which
you may or may not require, is suitable
for this purpose. On this anything fiat
and heavy should be laid, RENE embering
that only necessaries should be taken |
if weight is consideration. The writ
ing case also occupies this layer, and
any small spaces can be filled up with
rolled stockings and other small OBJ
jects.
The boots and shoes, each in hol-
land bag, may come next, and form
layer of their own, which can be
shared with the brush and comb and
sponge bag.
Then linen and woolen underwear,
between which any jewelry you may
be taking can be placed; also your hand
glass, scent bottles, or anything else
of a breakable nature.
The dress skirts come next, and
should be folded at the hips, so as to get
as much length as they can. Do not
turn them inside out. Jackets and
capes follow, the former lying fat on
their backs, with the sleeves laid
across their fronts. Capes should be
spread out as much as possible.
The tray is reserved for hats, dress
bodices and skirts, and light, small
things, such as wells and neckties.
The bodices will repay any trouble
| spent upon them in the way of stuffing
with crumpled paper by emerging un-
crushed at the end of the journey.
Over all the things in the tray soft
| towel should be spread.
Long sash ends, if attached to the
bodices, should be rolled up, and bow
loops ought to be stuffed with balls OF
paper.
| Gloves are laid fiat.
If the hats are trimmed with up
standing feathers it is better to take
| them out and let them travel fiat.
Wells can be rolled and collars packed
inside of hat crowns.
Do not attempt to squeeze your
things into a trunk too small for them :
but, on the other hand, the trunk should
not be too roomy, or the contents will
shake about and run great risk of dam
age.-Chicago American.
