A we'll written advertisement is
better news to an economical house
wife than a letter from home. Strang-

many who, otherwise, would never
know of business establishments,

Landram's Suggestion.

The Kentucky Legislature has
made an appropriation to pay preach
ers for praying for it. The sum al
lowed looks pretty stiff, too. We
would suggest that this job be let to
the lowest bidder. Let each bidder
state the length, breadth and depth
of the daily duplication, and it
might be best to have sample
prayer filed as an exhibit. AS pray
ers offered on such occasions never
ascend higher than the ceiling of the
building In which they are made, we
see nothing wrong in a little fun
over the matter.-Central Record.

Brief Poets Of JaDnn.

Japan is a land Of poets as we'll as OF
artists and soldiers, but the Japanese
poets have the great merit of brevity.
They almost invariably adopt the form
Of poem known as the "hokka," which
always consists of exactly thirty -one
syllables. arranged in five or six lines
These poems are usually devoted to
an exposition of some delicate beauty
In nature. One called "Kokoro ate ni'
THE Frost's Magic'-is a good ex-
ample. Freely translated, it runs like
this:
If 1t were my wish
White chrysanthemum to GULL
Puzzled by the frost
OF the early autumn time
l would try to pluck a flower.
The Japanese poets seldom rhyme,
and they do not often write love songs.
One of the latter, "Akenureba,' Is
reminiscent of Shelley's Good Night"
1t may be translated:
Though l know full well
That the night will come again,
Fen when day has dawned
Yet, in truth, l hate the sight
Of the mornings coming light.

WORLDS FAIR

June 8, 16, %, and 80 are the next dates
for great coach excursion to st. Louis via
Pennsylvania Railroad, on account OF the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition. The
rates for these excursions have been
fixed at such low figure that they afford
those of limited means an opportunity of
seeing the Worlds Fair at an exception
ally small cost. The unusual success at
tending the first Pennsylvania Railroad
excursion indicates that these will be very
popular.
Special trains OF standard Pennsylvania
Railroad coaches of the most modern
pattern will be run on the aboye-men-
toned dates from New York, Philadel-
phia, Harrisburg, Altoana, and Pittsburg,
directly through to st. Louis, with ample
stops for meals at convenient hours.
Each train will be in charge of Tourist
Agents of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The rates will be the same as for the
first excursion, May 10, 500 from New
York, $3.50 from Philadelphia, and pro-
portionate rates from other stations,
Specific information regarding time of
special train and connections, and rates
from principal stations east OF Pittsburg,
will be announced shortly.

At Ogden there are nine;
The good ship Jane, they sail her we'll
Twelve brothers, dear, of mine"

Said l., with laughter merry;
is it an orphanage, my dear,
Or a female seminary"
"With father dear We dwell at peace
Our mothers are eleven;
Round every door there's room for more,
And we are sixty-seven."
And then l left in dumb dismay
The maid with eyes like heaven
But as / left heard her say,
"And Pm the oldest, by the way,
