very considerable amount Of teaching.
A serious fault of these men was that
they would get tired of working and

A HUMoRIsT IN LOVE.
His Whole Anatomy Was Riddled
Like a Ripe Apple Perforated
with Bird-Shot.

A certain young humorist once fell
violently In love with pretty girl whom
he had met for the first time The
strength Of his attachment may be
gagged, says London Tit-Bits, by the
following letter which he indited to
her:
MY Dear Miss NJ: Every time
think Of you my heart flops up and down
like an excited eel in FISH basket Sem
sations Of unutterable joy caper over it
like young kittens on an clubhouse roof.
and thrill through It like broken bottles
on the garden wall through the gar
ments of the nocturnal thief As gos-
ling swimmeth in a mud puddle, so !
swim in a sea Of glory Visions Of
ecstatic rapture thicker than the hairs
Of blacking brush visit me in my slum-
bers, and, borne on their invisible wings,
/ reach out to grasp your image like a
terrier swapping at bluebottle fly
Since the light of your face fell upon
nv life sometimes feel as if | could
lift myself up by my boot-jack to the
top Of the church steeple and pull the
bell ropes for morning school.
DAY and night you are IN my
thoughts. and whenever think Of you
my heart, like piece Of gutta-percha,
seems stretched across my bosom.
"Your hair is like the name of a chest
nut horse powdered with gold, and the
brass pins skewered through it oil me
with unbounded awe. Your forehead Is
smoother than the elbow Of an old coat,
and your eyes are glorious to behold.
In their liquid depths | see legions OF
Cupids bathing like a oohort Of ants in
an old wellington boot When their
FIRE hit my manly breast il penetrated
my whole anatomy, as charge OF BIRD
shot goes through a ripe apple.
@If you cannot reciprocate my thrill
ing passion. | shall pine away like q

ing vine Of life an untimely branch And
IN coming years. when the shadows fall

The cheapness Of Life.

In the matter OF thrillings, human
nature seems 10 obey some hitherto
untabulated law Of selection. Let a
regiment Of 600 men be decimated
in a charge upon a Santiago outwork,
ana the country resounds with min
pled cry Of praise and lamentation.
But in every peaceful year of the
world more than eight entire regi'
ments Of lives are lost IN railroad ac'
cldents in the United States; and SO
the man who reads about them over
his coffee and chop in the morning
h. not bereaves personally or BY near
proxy. he experiences only a perfume
torv shock now and again when some
notsble wreck punches the killing and
