SPRING LANGUoRS.

Poets. that periured and untruthfuI
race. whose wicked and wasteful lives
are spent in misrepresenting in verse
every subject on which they lay their
desecrating hands, never show them
selves more utterly careless of truth
than when they write, as they so FIRE,
quently do, about the delights OF
spring weather. Why this is with
hem that when they write
theme on which to base their astound-
ing fctions is very likely only due
to the fact that there are so manv
rhymes to spring Yet their misrep-
reservations on the subject are so
glaring and so consistent that it is
impossible wholly TO acquit them of
intention, or take, as one would like to
do, the more charitable view hat the
hideous falsity of the pictures they
draw of spring are merely the result
Of want of observation. They too con
stantly apply epithets like ''balmy,"
soft, mellow to the air Of this
atrociaous time of the year to allow US
to believe that they do not do it on
purpose.
For the truth Of the matter is tnat
there never has been and never will
be, so far as we can judge, to anyone
who 1t at, all a connotsseuer in wealth
er, such a thing as a nice spring day.
We have had a very fair representa-
tive collection of spring days lately;
some have been hot, some cold; there
has been snow, rain ami sunshine
These cold days in sprir as we all
know, are Of a more vic ois and pier
cling quality than all the frosts OF
winter, Nor is there anything bracing
or exhilarating about them; they are
hideously cold, and at the same time
stuffly cold. And the warm days of
spring are even more trying to the
uercurially constituted; the same
STIFFNESS that makes the cold days of
March so odious is more oppressive
than ever, a deadly fatigue possesses
the limbs and paraIyzes the energies,
and all the symptoms of that drea I,
full malady (unhappily, not fatal, or
so we feel when we are attacked by
I'D called spring languors set In.
On these hot mornings Of spring
one wakes sometimes with a moderate
cheerfuless, which is speedily dispeli.

and physical Illness takes its place

and | have gone 50 far in bad attack

BALLOON IN FRENCH COURT.
AeronaUt is Seized for Knocking Over
HIGH Chimney.

AeronaHt IS seized TOR KNOCKING over
High Chimney.
The balloon is now fighting its way
for standing before the French
courts Though it appears to have be-
come as established a fact as the BIZ
cycle or the automobile. nevertheless
the idea is to new and original for
the courts to have many precedents
providing for aerial navigation as
method Of transit, says Paris report.
However the subject Of ancient
lights and ancient rights of air etc,
promises to come before the courts of
France in hundreds Of different ways
in the not far distant future. The
first balloon case Of the kind has just
been before the court for adjustment.
The suit grows out Of balloon acci-
dent of last year. An aeronaut named
Bacon was passing in his balloon over
Paris when he Unexpectedly came to
within few yards of the roofs. Final
~ he knocked down a chimney pot
Thinking him in danger some people
promptly seized he dragging guide
rope and in spite Of the aeronaut's
protest naued him down into the
street. He therefores had no choice
except to order them to shut their
windows while he debated his gas
bag. che gas entered house through
& window carelessly left open and
causfd an explosion In which man
named Gouzeau was killed The ques-
ton at issue was as to whether the
aerouaut having been an unwilling
sufferer himself was responsible for
the situation created The courts
finally edcided against the aeronaut
and sentenced him to pay damages
to the amount of 81 900 to the widow
of Gouzeaa. the man who was killed.

There is, so far as know this disease,
from which | am a habitual sufferer,
no pain OF any kind, and, indeed, one
would almost welcome it, in order to
have something definite the matter.
! One feels while dressing that 1t is
dreadfuly hot, and so wears thin
! clothes. only to find that one shivers:
yet with winter clothes it is a stark
/ imposibillty to move And the mind
is in the same state of discomfort as
| the body; it is atrophied and cannot
act; it can neither reflect nor invent.
and the utmost gymnastics of which
| it is capable is a slow and mournful
perusal of the short paragraphs in the
daily papers; long paragraph /, ;urns
from, as a fever-stricken man turns
from solid food. instinctiyely. knowing
he could not possibly tackle it.
This tagging and languor of the in-
trenal economy at that particular time
of the year when, according to the UNI
reliable race of poets, We ought TO be
/ daily more yiyified with the so-ealleo
'balmy' air of spring and filed with
vernal influences, is by no means pecu-
lar TO man, but runs through the en-
entire animal creation. We see it in
the universal malaise of all those crea-
lures who, puttinge off their winter
coats, whether of fur or feather. at
this season of the year, go through
just the same period of langaor as we,
and it is most marked of all in the
snake, which lies for days inert and
motionless, as theold skin is loosened
before it is sloughed of. Perhaps,
then, what we spring languorists feel
is some survival of that, though our
skin no longer needs to be renewed
every spring, 1t is not, however, into
the pc sible origin of this very real
affection that it is my purpose to go.
There are many, no doubt, who are
immune to the attacks of spring Ian
guor, those, in fact, to whom climate
conditions make no more difference
than they make to an express train.
But though such are strangers to these
pains and may be congratulated on
this account, they are strangers, also,
to those piercing and exquisite pleas
ures that the mere fact Of being alive
on a day of fine quality gives TO those
who suffer from the antipodal dis
comfort. For that immunity they
are sincerely to be commiserated.
For the days of early summer are now
soon coming, days far hotter than
those beneath this languid March sun,
but of that dry, brisk heat which in
Eigorates as much as the other dsbili-
tates. Dafodils will, perhaps, be still
in flower when these golden days be-
gin, and the mist of green which to-
day is uncertainty lowering round the
trees will then be laid thick over them
all; the gummy buds Of the chestnut
win be unfurled, and the ash buds
that are black now viii be an aig-
rette of emerald. Blue transparent
haze will cIOthe the distances, and n
the woods the carpet OF bluebells
nightingale. And the sufferers from
spring languor viii be recompensed
for their pains, for into their limbs
and their minds and their souls the in
applicable thrill and magic of early
summer will have found its way.

Rreathinn Fire.

Did you ever see a juggler blow a
stream of sparks from his mouth
OF course you wondered how he
could possibly keep fire in his mouth
without getting burned. for he must
have fire there in order to blow out
the sparks.
1t is a neat trick. He rolls some
fax or hemp into ball about the size
Of a walnut and then sets fire to it,
and lets it burn until it Is nearly con
sumed Then, while it is still burning,
he rolls more fax or hemp around it,
and thus confines the fire. in which
condition it will live for a long time
When he is ready to perform the trick,
he slips the bali into his mouth, and
by breathing through it makes sparks
fly ont, with an effect that is quite
startling to those who do not know
how it is done. OF course, while he
is performing the trick he has to
breathe in air through mis- nostrils
only.

The Trade-Winds

comparatively few persons know ex.
actly what those winds are. They are
produced By the thrush of cold air
from the poles to take the place of the
column of heated air that ascends
from the equator. The daily rotation
of the earth toward the east makes the
air from the north a northeast wind

blow in the same direction on the

a FUTURE QUEENS PIN MONEY

Superior Telegram-The report
comes from Spain that Queen Ena is
going to be little short of pin
money.
Time was when the common herd
in Europe deemed it happiness and
glorious privilege to work hard, eat
black bread, pay high taxes, and all
for the sake of seeing royalty make
ducks and brakes of the money. Your
peasant could actually see the kings
and the queens gulping down good
things and drinking priceless wines,
and at the same time shout: God
save their gracious majesties."
Spain thinks mighty well of the
Princess Ena. The Spaniards are
yelling themselves hoarse in her
honor. They are glad that Alphonso
had sense enough to get a real royal
consort instead of an original Floro-
dora girl.
But Spain is poor. The country has
cen taxed to death and almost starv-
d to death, and in addition plundered
by INSCRIPTIONS officials in a series
Of continuing villainy running over
several hundred years. So the bride
will have to get along with 10000,
annually This isn't much when the
demands on the purse of queen are
considered. It is about half what
England allowed Queen yictOria's
consort, and very much smaller than
the income of various other European
sovereigns.
However, there seems to be lot of
real affection, the kind that fiourishes
under adversely. in the relation of the
king and Princess Ena. and if this is
so, the money end of it doesn't mat
ter much. True lovers are always
rich-in a way
