POEMS EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOW.

Come from the silence 50 long and so
deep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me TO
sleep.
over my heart, In the days that are
flown
No love like mother-love ever was
shown;
No other worship abides and endures-
Faithful, unselhsh, and patient like
yours:
None like mother can charm away
pain
From the sick soul and the world
weary brain.
Slumber's soft Gains DER my heavy
lids creep
Rock me to sleep, MOTHERHOOD me TO
sleep!
Come, let your brown hair, Just light
ed with gold,
Fall on your shoulders again as of old;
Let 1t drop over my forehead tonight,
Shading my faint eyes away from the
light;
For with It's sunny-edged shadows once
more
HAPPY will throng the sweet visions
of yore;
Lovingly, softly, its bright pillows
sweep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to
sleep!

NUTMEG CRAVINGS

Interesting Items Boiled Down for the
 Benefit of Our Busy Readsrs-
 One man was fatally injured and two others badly hurt in a collision oI a locomotive with a hand car on the Highland division at Meriden yester- day. The men are Section Foreman Daniel DriscolI and SecHonmen John J. Murphy and Joseph Moreno. The men were taken to the Meriden hosp1- tal where it was found that Moreno's leg was almost severed from his body. John Hammill of Thonapsonville is n patient at tho Hartford hospital. AL though he was taken there for differ ent reason, an operation may be per- formed on his hands to bring them nearer to the normal than they are now. Each of his hands is equipped with six fingers, and three on each hand are webbed together. On his right hand an extra thumb protrudes next to his lawful thumb, while on the other hand an extra little finger keeps the usual one company.
 The 5:30 p. m. train from Hartford on the Highland division at Man chester last night struck and demolish- ed a wagon owned by Hartmann Brothers of Hartford, who conduct a tobacco plantation in Buckland. The team was struck at the Williams crossing, west of Buckland. The train was stopped a short distance east of the crossing, and the trainmen and passengers got off and went back on the track where they found demol- ished wagon and beside it dead horse; close by the other horse was standing little south of the track. But no driver was to be seen. Some one said: Where is the driver?" and a voice from pool of water out side the track said q am here.". The body of the wagon was turned over and underneath it was the driver. He was conscious and the only marks of injury he had were bruises on the right cheek, and on the left hand. His name is Michael McGuane.

GROOM GREW TIRED WAITING.
Bride Had To Be Aroused From Stun

Bride Had To Be Aroused From Slum-
 Der for the Ceremony.
 Waiting an hour in vain for his wife to-be, a prospective groom stood in one of the local churches during the past week. By his side stood his best man. Within the sacred edifice also stood 8 clergyman waiting to perform the cer- emony.
 The couple had planned for a quiet wedding. The groom and best man were to walk or ride to the church, where the bride and her maid would be in waiting. The groom and his witness appeared In time, but the bride was nowhere in sight. Five minutes rolled by, but no bride appeared. The groom was becoming a little restless, yet he thought that the delay was caused by the time consumed In ar- ranging the brides apparel. Ten minutes passed, yet his selected wife had not arrived. The, prospective groom began to grow anxious. But he determined to wait with what patience he could muster under the circum- stances. The feelings of the man who should have been made husband by this time can be better imagined than described. In sheer desperation he waited for another half hour. But he couldn't stand the suspense any longer. The strain was too much Informing the clergyman of his pur- pose, he went out in search of his to- be-wife. He went to her boarding place. To his surprise and astouish- ment the bride-to-be was in bed, hav' ing pleasant dreams. no doubt, of the morrow, when she would become the wife of her accepted lover. Uncon- scious was she that the hour appoint ed for her marriage had passed by. It did not take many minutes for the groom to have her aroused from her slumbers. When asked why she had nor appeared at the appointed hour, she exclaimed, 'Why, thought that the marriage was to take place to- morrow Hastily donning her we'd ding gown. she set off with her future spouse to the church and the ceremony was med--somewhat late, how ever. As the bridal pair left the church they probablye consoled each other with the reflection that 'Its bet ter late than never"
