growths before the seed has matured
because If the ripe seed falls on the
ground the bed will become full of
seedlings, which will be much harder
to destroy than other weeds. Cover

The dreaming spring had dropped it from

Beyond the world and see what no man

Slim beauty of the boy whom Echo
And Hyacinthus. whom Apollo dewed
With love and death. and Daphne. ever

And that reed-slender girl whom Pan
stood and gazed. and through it seemed
The Dryad's feet dance by the forest
Her hair wild blown: the Faun, with
listening eai.
Deep in the boscage. kneeling on one
Watching the wandered Dread draw

OF all the heavens, can suggest the

That this suggests, in whom no trace of
mar
Or soil exists: where stainless inno-

Enshrined, and where, beyond our vision
far,
That inaccessible beauty which the
heart
Worshps as truth and holiness and art
Is symboized; wherein embodied are
Inc things that make the SOUL

a short time after Cornelia came
home, Doctor Moran returned from

left the impress Of her nobility on his

truth and kindness looked from his

he drew his wife close to his heart
and kissed, her aftectionately.

PRIZES OF THE BRITISH BAR.
High Salaries and Large Fortunes Are
the Rule.

High Salaries and Large Fortunes Are
the Rule.
The Lord High Chancellor of Great
Britain is second only in position to
the Archbishop of Canterbury, and he
enjoys an income of 10000 year.
The: Lord Chief Justice of England has
a salary Of $4,000 a year. The Mas.
ter of the Rolls has a salary of $4,000
q year, and the Lords of Appeal in Or:
d1nary have the same. The lord JUS.
tees of the Court OF Appeal and the
judges of the High Court earn $4,000
a year each. The masters of the High
Court are chosen either from harris.
tiers or from solicitors, but all the
other oficeholders to whom we have
alluded must have come from the bar.
The Attorney General makes much
more money than any Of these digni.
taries. His salary is only $1,000, but
he has fees as well, sometimes to a
very large amount. The Solicitor Gen.
eral has 10000 a year besides his
fees. OF course, the double work, lie.
gal and parliamentary, which these
officers have to undertake is most ar
duous. requiring an iron constitution
and mind that requires but little
time for rest. The private practition.
ers in some few cases make larger in
comes than any of the official persons
at the bar. It is not, indeed, many
who make salaries Of five figures, but
there may be always one or two lead.
ers who are achieving this. The lead.
ers who are chiefly before the public
in ordinary cases do not often make
more than from $4,000 to 10000 a
year. Larger fortunes are frequently
made by men who specialize in pat.

appeals and compensation work, or
who practice their profession at the
parliamentary bar.-Cornhill Maya.

Divers Wonderful Story OF Meeting

curious legend contributed by a cor

The story purports to be the expert

bottom of the sea to inspect the sunk

Makaroff and his officers and sailors
all standing On the deck of the i'll.
fated battleship together with Father
Alexis, the priest, who went down
with her. They were singing and
praying for the car, crying, Lord
have mercy upon thy people" Then
they all vanished and the diver was
left alone with Father Alexis, who
drew nearer to him and said:
go back to daylight. Be silent fol
three days and three nights, and then
tell everything you have seen and
heard. Tell them that we are pray.
ing in the wilderness of the ocean.
The Lord will hear our prayer and
give strength to our czar. Then the
Petropavlovsk, battered and crippled,
will rise from the bed of the sea with
US all, and Admiral Makaroff will hold
review Of his fleet and command it
to go to the Japanese capital to die
tate to the vanquished foe. And the
whole fleet will sail past the Petro.

car Then when the fleet has passed,
the Petropavlovsli will sink again

Should judge that your soil has
much to do with the watery condition
OF your potatoes, and should advise
that you underdrain your land. The
first cost of doing this is considerable,
but the results obtained in better and
larger crops, added to the fact that
the land is in condition to be- worked
