MEMENTO VHVENTIS

By A. Iatady.
Why dost suppress all utterance of regard
is deaf mortal praise!
Why dos withhold the garland of reward
he S earthly gaze?
Thy flowers about my sombre bier, =
Are naught but tributes to common DOOM
Thy ardy phrases of regard thy tear,
wasted senseless tomb
II thoult grace with those wreaths of flowers,
Which the earth that gave me;
Or with thy praise make GLAD my earthly hours
Thou ma st all tributes when they grave
idle breath,
those whoa sooth the dull, cold ear of death

HAM PERED.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Mrs Jenner Lee Ondego-Have you ever
tried to establish friendly relations with
those pale, overworl1ed salesgirls in the
big stores?
Mrs Seldom Home-O, yes; especially
the girls at the bargain counters. I've
tried to get close to them many and many
a time. but the crush is always too great
for a little woman like me.

A TRAGEDY IN TOYLAND.
Jaek-in- the-Box loved pretty French
doll,
And his wooing was very, very sad,
For a coil of wire and a bit of painted
wood
Was all the constitution that he had.
81 really don't see how she could love
me-"
Said Jack with a shake of his head;
And, thinking thus sadly of the POOR show
he made,
He wished many times he was dead.
The pretty French doll said never a word.
Tho her smile was wonderful to see.
She wouldn't even look at Jack-in-the-
Box,
For a very humble Jack was he.
The days passed by in the glad Christmas
A lot of people visited the store,
But Jack-in-the- Box kept his eyes on the
doll,
And loved the little maiden more and
more.
One fateful day there came a woman
who was fat,
And had a rather cheerful sort of face.
Her kindly eyes alighted on Jacn-in-the-
Box
The moment that she walked into the
place.
She bought the modest creature for the
sum of ten cents,
And she shut him up tightly with a
bang;
And she carried him away to her little
boy, they say
Without a single heartache or a pang.
Now the pretty French doll missed jack
in-the-BoX,
e.I,n
cry.
He wasn't very rich, but he had pleas
ant smile,
And she thought of him often with a
sigh.
A good little girl got the pretty French
doll,
Who never saw her lover any more;
For the rest of her life she was lonely and
sad,
And her smile was not the smile she had
before.
The winter months passed, and the little
boy broke
| The present old Santa Claus brought,
And Jacl-in- the Box never did know what
The pretty French doll really thought
On the trash pile he lay, with the rain
beating down,
A pitiful figure to behold
OF all the love affairs that the Sandman
sees,
| The SdQQeSt are those never IOlO.

in the United States do compete for the
work, it cannot be economically carried
out.
As a result of the years work the
entrance channel is now 400 feet wide
and So feet deep at mean low water,
and the harbor proper has a general
width of 800 feet and depth nowhere
less than So feet, except in a wedge
shaped section--shown on the accom-
panying map-without any soundings
noted-which remain to be complet-
ed. In connection with the harbor
Improvement, about 34.6 acres of land
belonging to the United States and I'M
der the immediate control of the Navy
I Department and Department of Com
merce and Labor, were reclaimed with
| the material dredged, without addition
al cost. The island just seward of
the light house was also reclaimed in
the course of the work This island
has made the water in the harbor much
more quiet, and if it can be enlarged in
connection with future work, it will
| be a valuable acquisition. Certain
private lands belonging to the Dowsett
! Co., Ltd, and Oahu Railway & Land
| Co., Ltd, were also reclaimed. In
consideration of this reclamation the
above companies agreed to give the
| United States an option to purchase
for 81 a parcel of their land having an
area of about acres, which lies in
section c, and must be acquired before
project can be completed. Another
portion of the material dredged was
used in retaining Quarantine Island,
for which the contractors were paid 10
cents per yard in addition to the price
paid for dredging. A portion of the
dredged material was placed on private
lands near the harbor and a small por-
ton of the material was towed to sea.
