Lullaby.

Dear little girl with the golden hair,
Dear little girl with the face so fair,
Come TO my arms, my dearie;
Lay your head on my shoulder, there.
Lisp In my ear your good night prayer,
Then sleep, for your eyelids are weary.
Dear little girl with the nodding head.
AS softly you sleep with my arms for bed
Tell me OF what you are dreamingS
May haps an angel out OF your prayer
Is lingering, lingering lovingly there
Like a star in heaven cleaning.
Dear little girl with tender smile,
Smiling in dreams OF the afterwhile.
Dream OF the angels, dearie;
Sleep, oh, my darling, and smile In your dreams
For innocence out OF your smiling beams,
Like the sparkle OF freight CHEEKY.
Dear little girl with the golden hair,
Sleep till the dawn. for no one will dare
To waken you now little dearie;
So hush ye whose footsteps are loud In the
hall,
Hush We who hasten and hush ye who call,
For my little darling is weary.

To Hold Sand Dunes In Check

In order to determine whether the
sand dunes on government land in CEN
trail Minnesota are of sufficient extent
to render the land unfit for agriculture
and adapted for forest reserve, the
Bureau of Forestry will send out a
party this summer under H. B. Kemp
ton to study the matter. Mr.. Kempton
will also try to devise methods by which
the farmer in the sand dune regions
will be able to protect his land. A
similar study will be made under Mr..
Kempton in Michigan along the shores
of Lake Michigan. This sort of work
was begun last year by the Bureau of
of Forestry on the Atlantic Coast and
in the Columbia River country of the
northwest, and resulted in the discovery
of valuable methods in restraining drift
ing sands.

Euronenn Tattooers.

Tattooing is not by any means con-
fined to savage peoples. There are
races in Europe which make it regu-
lar practice, and men, women and chill
dren bear on their bodies ornamental
lions that are as ornate and queer, al
though not as extensive, as are mark
ings on the bodies of the south sea
savages.
These European tattooers are among
the Albanians and Bosnians, who live
in the famous and notorious Balkan
peninsula.

No one knows better than Grover Cleve
land that Tammany is the most motor
iously corrupt organization in the civiliz-
ed world, that it has never been honest
a single spot in the road in all its history;
that it has robbed the people indiscrim-
inately. and yet he had the sublime
nerve to write Fourth Of July letter
in which he refers to the glorious
traditions of Tammany, and said; "As
in the past, it should continue to advo-
cate the rights of the people and as it
celebrates Independence Day again it
should renew its determination to serve
the people well by contributing all its
power and influence TO the cause of
good government" That ought to jar
almost any one. Tammany never advo-
Gated the rights of the people and its in
fluence and power has always been to
rob and steal from the people, and Mr..
Cleveland well knows it. But he is
bidding now for political support. The
fact that the bee is buzzing in his bon
netisclearly evident. Saginaw Courier
