POETIC NUGGETS.


What sounds are those that greet our ears.
like voices swelling loud?
What means this concourse gathered near
like some fast-driving cloud?
What shouts are those, and wild acclaims,
that cleave the summer air?
HurrahI Huzza! Lift up your eyesI The
flag we love is there!
On many a long and weary march those
silver stars have gazed;
Ger many hard-fought battlefield those
crimson stripes have blazed;
And many a triumph has been won be-
meath its colors bright,
BY war-scarred veterans who fought for
freedom and the right!
Then fling abroad that glorious fagi Set
all it's splendors freel
Fling out the stripes! Fling out the stars!
IT'S freedoms jubilee!
And ali, those silver stars have gaZed on
many a peaceful scene,
While shrined as sacred relics hung war
erstwhile weapons keen!
The bugle's voice that called to arms In
shrill and martial strain
Since then has sung the song Of peace Ger
many fruitful plain;
The rudy camp fire shines no more on
civil strife to-day,
But lights in friendly bivouac now, COM
rades in Blue and Gray!
Then fling abroad our country's flag! Watt
it DER land and sea!
Fling out the stripes! Fling cut the stars!
IT'S freedoms jubilee!
o flag. proud flag of liberty! Though war
dark visage looms
To cast once more upon our land its terrors
and its glooms,
Thy silver stars and crimson stripes shall
float from freedoms dome
While beats one heart beneath thy folds to
claim this land as home!
The spirits of our gallant sires have never
passed away;
The blood that fired their loyal hearts
throbs in our veins to-day!
Then float in majesty on high! Float over
land and sea!
Fling out thy stripes! Fling out thy stars!
'Tis freedoms jubileel

THE THEATER.

Duding her engagement at the The
alter Republic, Nance O'Neil is to ap-
pear for the first time in Sardou's
Ga Tosca" and Fedora" 1t is also
highly probable that she will add
'The Scarlet Letter" to her roper
toire.
Bronson Howard, the dramatist, is
in Pasadena, Cal, where he expects to
remain two or three years. II have
bafied the DOCTORS" he says. ''They
cannot tell what is the matter with
me. Three years ago they said
needed rest and for three years 1
wandered over Europe and Egypt.
Here 1 am better than 1 have been
since my health became impaired"
One reason for the better apprecia-
ton and enjoyment of the drama in
France than in other countries, is
said to be the habit there of general
reading of the plays in book form
before they are seen. Very few i'm
portant productions go upon the
Paris stage that are not taken up
and carefully perused by the theater-
going public. When productions like
''Cyrano de Bergerac," "L'Aiglon,"
and other pieces of that order are
preparing for presentation, the books
of the play are in great demand and
sell by the hundreds of thousands.
The late Luigi Arditi had only
poor acquaintance with the English
language and this failing sometimes
led him into awkward verbal eccen-
tricities. At promenade concert in
London he was called upon to explain
that singer would be compelled to
appear in a travelling costume be-
cause of railroad blockade. He did
so and concluded thus: $50, ladies
and gentlemen, Mile. De Lido is I'M
dressed, bot she will sing If you
veesh." Arditi once visited Stratford-
on-Avon and was shown all the relics
connected with Shakespeare. "Ah, L
remembaire," he said, shakespeare,
yes, Romeo e Giulietta,' 'Macbet,'
Hamlet He vas great ibrettist."

FRILLS OF FASHION.

Appliuues of muslin figure in mil
linery.
Twine-colored lace is used effective
ly on white linens.
If you have pretty throat wear one
of the low Byron collars.
Jet fringes, as well as silk and linen,
are prophesied tremendous vogue.
A shade between orange and rose
is effective on either castor or gray.
In colorings, marine blue and green
combinations are still much in favor.
Chains of daisies, violets or roses are
worn by very young girls with evening
dress.
Long ends ornament everything
fringes, ribbons and pendant orna-
ments.
A new sleeve has long, tight,
wrinkled cuff and full puff above the
elbow.
Linen buttons embroidered are most
attractive on gowns of the same ma
terial.
Revers of white linen embroidered
in red used on gray serge gown are
stylish.
To get a really original chain return
to your childish days and string your
own beads.
Call it gauging, shirring, cording or
what you will-only so you have it on
your frocks.
Dainty, fluffy little revers are be-
coming finish to some ehemises and
nightgowns.
! It's an oddly complexioned woman
who does not look well in one of the
many violet shades.

The Glorious Fourth.

Over the country bells are ringing,
Over the homes of the glad and free;
Union Forever" the birds are singing
While we are keeping our jubilee.
Boom of cannon the meadows over,
Throbbing of drums on the morning air;
Every boy is a loyal rover,
Bearing the banner so bright and fair.
Freedom for ALL" our motto ever,
Flaming in rockets of crimson hue;
Union of states no hand can sever
Under the Red, the White and the Blue.
This is the glorious Fourth we're keeping
Here in the land Of the proud and free,
Voices cheering and pulses leaping,
Honoring the nations jubilee.

Brace Up.

Thorns are on the roses, yes,
Clouds before the sun;
But We'll pick the blooms, guess
Pluck 'em eV'ry one!
An We'll treasure them the more
For the stabs we got; 4
Amt you glad the sun amt out?
Might have been too hot! -
Amt you glad it's rainin', too?
Houers all are full,
And you'll see the skies are blue
When there comes a lull;
An you'll hear the whistle sweet
OF the whippoorwill,
When the perfumed shadows come
Troopin' from the hill.
Let the old world keep her gait,
Let her roll along!
If you're glad don't stand an wait,
Tell it in a song!
If you're sorrowin' brace up
It'll all come right;
If the side to'ards you is dark
To'other side is bright

Our Country's Natal d

Our COuntry's Natal Day.
We praise Thee for the Past, o God,
On this our country's natal day;
The glorious paths our fathers trod,
The hero blood that of our sod
Makes more than common clay;
The work they wrought that nothing mars:
Our banner, Freedoms Stripes and Stars.
And fer the present, fair and bright
We thank Thee, o Thou King of kings;
For love of justice and Of right,
For strength and courage in the fight
These are no idle things,
Since blest the land whose life-blood runs
Through noble sires and gallant sons.
But for the Future, o, we crave
Thy benediction, Prince of Peace,
That still unstained our flag may wave
Above the merciful, the brave,
Till stars and planets cease
Whereer its glories are unfurled
Revered and loved of all the world.

A Plea for Patriotism.

Noisy? Well, yes, perhaps it is;
But to-day the youngsters have cause
for mirth.
Those cannons roar and rockets whizz
To celebrate the nations birth.
So let the boys have their fill Of noise
The Fourth of July comes but once q year.
And, old as 1 am, could join these boys,
Make noise for noise, give cheer for cheer.
tell you it makes my old blood boil
When think of the deeds that our grand
sires wrought.
With nary complaint for bitter toll,
They starved and froze brave as they
fought
Had it not been for them, think what we'd
be
Colonies! Bowling to prince and peer.
So let my boys make noise, you see
The Fourth, after ALL comes but once a
year.

Two Views.

His mother says that Harold Graves
A teacher who can understand him.
she SAYS that when he misbehaves
Nv kindness only she'd command him
He's sensitive to words unkind,
impatient, too of contradiction
The dominating sort of mind
That works the best without restriction.
The neighbors say that Harold gets
His own sweet way more than he ought
to;
That when he wells and screams and frets
A slippers what he should be brought to-
That measures mild he never heeds;
For drastic ones you'll find them stick
ing
| In short, they say, what Harold needs
| Is Just a good old-fashioned licking.

Month of May.

This is the beautiful month of
Mary. Beautiful name! Most de-
ightful month.
In May butter takes on a blond
hue, eggs are best scrambled, the
young mans fancy lightly turns to
thoughts of angelic happiness on
earth, and the young woman's
thoughts run to ice cream.
1t is month also when the school
boy mines for grubs and angle
worms black of the woodshed, when
he sits most of the day on the bank
while his mother spades the garden,
splits the wood for the production of
supper and wonders where Willie is.
Phe tin cans have been raked out
of the back yard and garden ''sass"
has begun to sprout. The smell of
the spring bonfire yet freights the
atmosphere here and there and the
buckwbeat itch has lost it's terrors.
May is the time of year too when
the summer girl lays in a new stock
of shirt waists, tightens up her ten
mis- racket and starts on her annual
heart breaking tour.

John Wanamaker says there is
only one way to advertise and that
is to hammer your name and your
business SO constantly, so persistent
ly, SO thoroughly into the peoples
heads that if they walked in their
sleep they would constantly turn
their heads to your store. The
newspaper is your best friend in
spite of your criticism. It helps to
build up your community which
supports you. When the day comes
that the newspapers are dead the
people are near the edge of the grave
with no one to write their epitaph.
of the hundred or more candi-
dates for various offices in Grant
county towns, cities and villages
this spring but one complied with
the law regarding the filing of state
ment of campaign expenses with
the register of deeds, and the bal
ance are all liable to the penalty
prescribed of $50 fine. The law
gives each candidate 80 days after
election ia which to file this sworn
statement and whether he expended
one cent or not, his statement must
be filed just the same. The one
man complying with the law in
Grant county was Henry Gore, can
didate for Office in township of
Castle Rock and he spent nothing.
