Here where they brew the weather.
Where old Probs" fronts the sky,
Come birds on timorous feather
With callow pipe and cry.
You see them faint and straining,
Our coign OF vantage gaining,
They wheel and poise disdaining.
And pretty tactics try.
Gray tattered clouds are drifting
So tranquil through the air,
The sunshine's splenLor sitting
That filters golden share.
His yellow rays are cleaning.
Rich barbaric jewels streaming,
Some splendid spendthrift seeming.
And tossing tawny hair.
There snarls Chicago's river,
Coling with foul scorpion spite,
Black seething currents shiver
Where dead men Turk at night.
Winding like a serpent creeping
To sting fond. tender dove,
Her girlish vigil keeping
And yearning for her love.
Like some vast emerald etching
The rolling prairie seems
Some green Siberia stretching
All drenched in golden CLEANS.
The sapphire sky smiles tender.
All flecked with aerial foam,
Chicago's ringed with splendor,
Two million are at home.
III. Rose, on Times swift river
We drift to Deaths shoreless sea.
Our two tributes to deliver
What Fate holds for you and me.
For Youth and Love must perish
And Beauty, too, will fade.
The boyish hopes we cherish,
The dreams of youth and maid!

WRITTEN BY MARSHAL BLUcHER
Interesting Letter From Great Soldier
to His Wife.

Interesting Letter From Great Soldier
to His Wife.
There has just been discovered in
the family archives of a landed pro-
prietor in Mecklenburg a hitherto I'M
published letter written by the cele-
brated Marshal Butcher to his wife
on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo.
The letter is couched in the unique
style and spelling peculiar to the old
soldier, which, however, are partly
lost in the following translation from
the German:
'Comprenne, June II, 1915.
Here | sit in the room in which
Mary Louisa spent her bridal night.
1t is hard to imagine anything more
beautiful than Comprenne. What a
pity that l must part from here to-
morrow, because within three days
must be in Paris.
1T is possible, and most probable,
that Bonaparte will be handed over
to me and Wellington. Do not think
l can do anything better than to have
him shot. This would be a service to
mankind In Paris he is wholly de-
serted; everybody hates and despises
him.
81 believe this will all be over in a
short while, and then l shall hasten
home. There are many pretty things
here, but l must not take anything
away. "BLUCHER."

FAHRENHEIT's SCALE
Based on That Of Newton, Who Made the
First Thermometer.
Neu Vorl< Q,Ip

According to Sir Samuel Wilkes, Fab
renheit constructed his thermometer from
one made many years before by Sir Isaac
Newton. I'm the transactions Of the Roy
al society for 1901 will be found the paper
written by Sir Isaac Newton, who was
at that time secretary to the society,""
says Sir Samuel. He invented an In
strument for measuring the degree Of heat
in fluids by taking a tube and filling it
with linseed oil. On this he marked the
freezing point as zero, by putting the tube
in ice, and In the same way he marked the
point when placed in boiling water. The
very awkward scale which we now use
Is evidently that Of Newton, for, the deci-
NAL system not being then in use, he took
the number u to denote the heat of the
body; this he. found, and made it the
starting point Of his scale, both upward
and, downward. t.:. ss
(, 1T was some time after this that, for
the sake: of convenience, the degrees were
divided into two, and thus the body heat
was "a above zero and boiling point 3d.
When, many years afterward, Fahrenheit
made his instrument and used mercury
instead Of linseed oil, which was far more
convenient he again divided these de-
grees into four, so II the, number be null
tiplied accordingly we have 212 for the
boiling point and So for body heat.
Fahrenheit finding he could get a low
I er temperature than freezing made this
point zero, which brought the number s
Of Newton's to 80 Of Fahrenheit. In this
way the thermometer was constructed.

This winter beautiful Vatican silks of
delicate blue and pink colorings with

for bonbon cases, which afterward serve
as opera bags. The base Of the bag is
