Pity the Poor bachelor.

Laying all jokes aside, what excuse

ii or that 1t is no fault of his hat he
is or that he continues TO exist. These
observations are made from the old
maids point of view, which seems 10
be the point from which the Old bach
elor is viewed. There are other view
points from which he appears to better
advantage, particularly at first glance.
but when the halo of sentiment which
he has gathered around him has been
blown away even these points do not
offer enhancing views. The fact re-
mains, however, that he still exists and
still has natural force enough to de-
velop a halo of sentiment that is more
or less attractive to the opposite sex,
If not really magnetic, and strong
enough TO draw attention to him, and
respectful attention too. The bachelor
ought to know why he is as he is, and
no doubt he does, out for some reason
or other he has not peer entirely sue
cessful in satisfying the public hat his
reasons are good and sufficient. 1t is
up to him, therefore, to set public opln-

In the "Memsirs Of Henry Willard"
the author tells Of the time Lincoln
spoke to him of the growth of his am
bition since the days when he was
clerking in n country store. and his
greatest desire politically was TO be a
member of the state legislature.
"Since then, of course" he said
laugbingly. II have grown some, but
my friends got me into this business

slider myself qualified for the United
States senate, and IL took me n long
time to persuade myself that | was.
Now, TO be sure he continued, with
another of his peculiar laughs, Il am
convinced TINT | am good enough for
it; brt, in spite of all. | am saying TO
myself every day, 1t is too big n thing
for you: You will never get it. Mary

am going to be senator and president
of the United States too"

There is no reason why II muscle or

Toes he not attribute his consequent
headache to the heavy burden he has

thinking we could conceive of the re-
suits following upon prolonged use of
the eye. Nature has Ion all she could

OF the eye. No earthly architect ever

Acute Vision of Birds.

Birds have n very acute vision, per-
haps the most acute Of any creature,
md the sense is also more widely diff
fused over the retina than Is the case
with man. Consequently "A bird can
see sideways as well as objects in
front Of 1t. A bird sees. showing great
uneasiness In consequence, II hawk
long before II Is visible to man. So,
too, fowls and pigeons find minute
scraps Of food, distinguishing them
from what appear to us similar pieces
of earth or gravel. Young chickens
are also able TO find their w food,
knowing its position and how distant
1t Is as soon as they are Matched,
whereas Il child only very gradually
learns either TO see or to understand
the distance of objects. Several birds,
apparently the young of all those that
nest on the ground. can see quite well
directly they come out of the shell, but
the young birds that nest in trees or
on rocks are born blind and have to be
fed.

One of the many features that will
be appreciated by those who visit the
great Floto Shows, which will exhibit
in Rawlins on Friday, July Sth, 1904,
is the grand concert rendered every
afternoon and evening by Prof,
Hackers Military and Concert
Band, composed of twenty five of the
best concert musicians that could be
obtained. They are all soloists and
many of them are composers of note
This band is stationed in the first
large tent as you enter the exhibition,
and at | o'clock in the afternoon and
7 O'Clock in the evening, immediatel Y
upon the opening of the doors, they
render a concert of one hours dura-

IL is not a concert such as is usu-

cling organizations, but the program
contains numbers that are rendered
only by tie leading concert bands Of
the country. While classic music is
presented the leading popular airs
OF the day are not forgotten.
