YOUR BOY.

We chaperon our girls and carefully
guard them against unworthy boys. but
we leave the boy to choose for himself
his associates and his achievements.
Girls are naturally winsone, gentle,
companiohable They win their way in
homes and hearts. But the boy, noisy,
awkward. mischievous; is invited into
few homes and feels none too much at
home in his own. About the only door
that swings with sure welcome to the
boy, about the only chair that is showed
near the fire especially for the boy,
about the only place where he is sure
Of cordial greeting is-where he ought
not to go.
1t is one of the hardest things in the
world to get hold of boy---to get a
sure grip on him. He is hungry for
companionship and he will have 1t. You
can't chain him away from it. He
wants the companionship of boys, and
nothing will take its place. If the rime
of selfishness has so encased your heart
that the joys and hopes of your boy
cannot enter into it, the boy is to be
pitied, but SO are you.-Milwaukee
Journal.

POETRY.

TT was such an inspiration

And to frame it began.
And there was no studied meter
1t was rhythm so divine

AS they swung themselves In hne-
So / welded fast together,

They were straight from Natures foun-

So l sent 1t, as my duty,
To u high-class magazine.
For a month I watched and waited
One long month of hope deferred
Then a line: with thanks rejected
Came the only printed word
So sat in meditation
At this most perplexing news
And 1 got my pen and paper
But l didn't have my Muse.
Then L chopped and sawed and nam
mered,
AS might piece of wood;
There was nothing in the matter,
Rut the workmanship was good
save the theme, the rhyme and meter
For such little things, l thought
Were a hindrance to acceptance
And made this to be bought
And 10 make an obscure meaning,
None, in fact). much pains l spent
Go that when my work was finished,

PHONE AID TO MATRlMONY.
Girl with One in Her Home Away,
Popular with Young Men.

Girl with One in Her Home Always
Popular with Young Men.
1t is needless to say that the tele-
phone is a great institution, says the
Utica Press. 1t has long been an abso-
lutte essential in every place Of bust
ness. Just now there is great in
crease in the number of phones in pri-
vate houses. 1t Is possible to talk
with pretty much everybody at his or
her home. The companies are evident
ly endeavoring to boom that branch of
their business, because they are ad-
vertlsing 1t extensively. The other
day a st. Louis paper had a big dis
play ad. at the top Of which was a
picture Of an attractive young lady
telephoning and represented as saying:
rs that you, Harry?' The text be-
meath it includes this statement: ut
Is well-known fact that the girl who
has telephone is the girl who has
the most friends, and consequently has
the best time"
This appeal to the young people is
adroit, and doubtless will serve to
make the St. Louis exchange bigger
and buster. The parents who have
manageable daughters will do well to
consider this ingenious continuance and
modern aid to matrlmony 1t is some
thing Of bother for young man to
call or even to write a note asking the
young lady to go to the theater. go for
walk or drive or ride to the park.
but If he can transmit the message by
telephone it is an easy way of making
an appointment. Many delicious
message is telephoned these days, and
there is reason to believe the statement
made by the st. Louis company. 1t
applies, of course. with equal force in
every American city. The young Ia
dies for whom a life of single bles-
sedness has no charms are not exactly
buying lottery ticket when they hire
a phone. They can get much pleasure
and comfort out of 1t as they go along.
for 1t ia a constant contributor to con
venience. 1t is worth the price. with
the enhanced matrimonial possibility
thrown in as an extra inducement.

THE GREEDY CORMORANT.

His Meal Included Two Pounds of
Stones, One Four Inches Long.
When | was keeper in the National
Geological Park in Washington. l OBJ
served remarkable example of the
well-known greediness of the cormor-
ant.
Four little cOrmorants came to the
100, and were placed in a cage in
which dogs had once been kept. out
side was pebbly yard in which the
dogs had exercised. The cOrmOrants
waddled about this yard and seemed
to be having fine time, until one
morning l noticed that one of them
was sitting on the ground, unable to
rise. He did not waddle up to get his
meal of whole fish, each usually about
half as long as his own body; and as
the others came rushing toward me
to get their share, l knew that he
was i'll. l went into the cage AMI
lifted him up. What was my amaze
ment to hear something grating and
clanking inside Of him! And he SEEM
ed surprisingly heavy. l at once call
ed the head keeper, who decided to in
vestigate by means of a surgical opera
ton.
He took out two pounds Of stones,
one Of which was four inches long,
two and half inches wide and about
half an inch thick! The poor chap
seemed to feel relieved. In few
days he became convalescent. ate his
food regularly. and seemed to be do
ing well. Then that hooked bill reach
ed under the feathers and tore out
some of the surgeons stitches, which
were undoubtedly irritating. as the
wound was beginning to heal. AS the
result of this interference, the wound
opened. and, rs the weather was hot,
the patient died five days after the
opera tion.-St. Nicholas.

Arabia's Laughing Plant,

There is a curious plant that grows
in Arabia and is known by the name
Of Laughing plant" This name comes
from the fact that any one who eats
its seeds cannot control his laughter
The natives Of the district where this
funny plant grows dry the seeds and
reduce them to powder A small dose
Of this powder makes those who eat
1t act much like those who drink more
liquor than is good for them. The So
berest person will dance, shout and
laugh like a mailman. and rush about
cutting up the most ridiculous capers
for an hour. At the end of this time
the reaction comes. The dancer is ex-
hausted and a deep sleep comes upon
him. After a nap Of several hours he
awakens with no recollection Of the
antics he has performed.

RARE STAMPS ON OLD LETTERS.
Finds of Value Sometimes Made
Stamps to Look Out For.


Stamps to Look Out For.
Never burn up or throw away Old
letters or papers without first giving
them careful examination" advised a
Twenty third street stamp dealer, for
there's many an apparently worthless
piece OF paper that bears a stamp
which would bring in open market hum
dreds and maybe thousands of dol
lars.
There are plenty of the old post
master stamps still in existence. for
instance, as there were great many
OF them originally issued, and 1t has
not been so long ago, say fifty I've
years, when they were in active use.
Now, any one of these early issues is
worth from $500 up. Any one who
has access to old files of correspond
ence from 1910 to 1865 ought to hunt
for such stamps.
THE chief reason why more of these
old stamps have not come to light is
probably that they have so ordinary
and unattractive an appearance that
would not waste a second glance upon
them. They We're very similar in most
cases to the postmaster cancellat ton
marks now In use in the postoffices,
with the exception that the postmaster
was required to sign his name to them.
1.-THE rarest Of the whole lot Of post
master issues Is the 1O-cent Baltimore
stamp, with the name Of James NJ
