A New Sport
for Girls

Girls hear their brothers talking
about baseball teams, hockey and foot.
ball teams and the like till it seems as
If the team" is the most important
thing in the world, and that no indi.
vidual game is half so much fun as
one which will permit Of team
work."
OF course some girls belong to has.
ket ball teams, but by far the greater
number of them do not, for that sport
requires suits and an especial place to
play. such as a gymnasium. Still
there is no reason why girls should
not have teams, too, and there are a
good many things at which they might
beat the boys if they formed teams
and practice hard.
Here is new wrinkle in the way of
girls teams, and we predict that If
team OF girls should practice half as
hard as the boys do in their games
they would beat team of boys who
had not practiced quite so much.
Five or even six girls can make the
team, although four is the best mum

PUSH, DON'T KNOCK.

Upon the door I saw sign;
I cried, "a motto! And it's minel"
A wiser thing never saw
No Median or Persian law
Should be more rigidly enforced
Than this, from verbiage divorced;
Its logic's firm as any rock
"Push-don't knock"
But what guide for life was that
Strong, philosophical and pat;
How safe chart for you and me
While cruising DER life's restless sea;
Push, always push, with goal in view:
Don't knock-avoid the hammer crew,
This rule will save you many a shock:
'Push-don't knock"
When on that door I see the sign,
l say, Great motto, you are mine!"
No stronger sermon ever fell
From human lips; no sage could tell
The hothead youth more nearly how
To point always his vessels PROV;
There are no wiser words in stock:
"Push-don't knock"

Made Him Homesick.

We find in the Boston Journal an
interesting account Of a dog taken
from Medford, Mass, to Durham. N
H., which remained quietly in his new
quarters until one day hand organ
man came to the front of the house
and played the air Home, Sweet
Home" which the dog had frequently
heard in his own home at Medford.
Shortly after that he vanished and his
whereabouts was only discovered by
a letter from family in Chelsea,
Mass. (who had kindly taken care of
him), to his owner at Medford, whose
name was inscribed on his collar.
He had evidently walked all the dis
lance from Durham to Chelsea in an
attempt to find his Medford home,
where he is again now happily rest
ing from his long journey.

THE BRAVE OLD OAK.

A song to the oak, the brave old oak,
Who hath ruled the greenwood long:
Here's health and renown to his broad
green crown,
And his fifty arms so strong.
There's fear in his frown, when the
sun goes down,
And the fire in the west fades out;
And he showeth his might on wild
midnight,
When the storms through his
branches shout.
In the days OF old, when the spring
with cold
Had heightened his branches gray,
Through the grass at his feet, crept
maidens sweet,
To gather the dews of May.
And on that day, to the rebec gay
They frolicked with lonesome
SWANS;
They are gone, they are dead, In the
churchyard laid,
But the tree--it still remains.
He saw rare times when the Christ
mas chimes
Were a merry sound to hear,
When the squire's wide hall and the
cottage small
Were filed with good English cheer
Now gold hath the sway we all obey,
And q ruthless king is he;
But he never shall send our ancient
friend
To be tossed on the stormy sea.
Then here's to the oak, the brave old
oak,
Who stands in his pride alone;
And still flourish he, hale green tree
When hundred years are gone.

A Little C6quette

presence. She was a beautiful child
OF four years, and charming to look
upon in her well-made, becoming cos
tune, her long fair hair yelling her
shoulders, and a loose bunch of red
roses in her hand. She was on the
way to the railway station and the
flowers were for a goodbye offering
to a friend who was about to leave
the city. On the way to the station
she had heard the word passed along.
The Emperor! the Emperor" and
being a very young miss whose home
was in country where they do not
have kings, she stopped and gazed in.
quisitively at the two men.
The old sovereign smiled benignly
at the child and extended his hand
toward her: will you give me your
roses, little girl?" said he.

She transferred the flowers to the

and said chidingly: please, give his
Majesty the roses, Helen"

frankly, as she placed the bouquet in
his hand. tx
Both the Emperor and his adj|utant
laughed heartily. "She evidently pre-

with a smile. Then the kind hearted :
old Emperor drew the child to him
and gave her kiss, and the NURSE
led her away-St. Nicholas.
