arms, 3 conclusions of the brain, 3 brok-

cellaneous injuries. In the records shown
no Wisconsin death was recorded. The

The study of French has been in
troduced in the four Milwaukee high
schools, and in those of Madison and
Racine, so that now for the first time
in many years the students in these
schools need not envy the private
schools their linguistic opportunities.
The large German population of the
state has resulted in the teaching of
the German language in the high
schools to the exclusion of other mod
ern foreign languages, so that Wiscon-
sin has long been the only state in the
middle west in which there was no pro-
vision for the study of French in the
public secondary school system. This
year, however, about 100 students in
Milwaukee, Madison and Racine high
schools have begun a study of French.
and the interest shown in the work in
dicates much larger enrolment next
year.

Gone, all the summers sheen,
Gone, all the shimmering green,
And dark skies overhead
Hang low, like domes of lead;
The trees with branches bare
Stand shivering in despair.
Upon the silent streams
An icy fretwork CLEANS;
All over hills and plains
A snowy stiffness reigns,
All what can compensate
For earth so desolate!
The hearth fires CHEEKY CLEAN,
The joy and peace supreme
That in ours heart abide
At this dear Christmastide;
The good will and the love-
Gods message from above.
These can assuage the woe
For loss of summers glow;
Can calm the deepest grief
For vanished flower and leaf;
These can all compensate
For earth made desolate.

Tip from the SAGE.

Well" yawned the sage of the park
bench, this business of chasing dogs
around the town and taking them to
the pound may be all right in some
ways, but it certainly is wasting a lot
of valuable power"
"Power? calculated the park po-
liceman in surprise.
Yes, power. When a dog is in a
good humor he wags his tail, doesn't
he?"
Believe he does"
We'll, now, if we could keep all the
stray dogs in a good humor and stand
them in row and let them wag their
tails from morn till night, why, man,
there would be enough power generat-
ed to run trolley line. Niagara
wouldn't be in it, Wonder to me
some genius don't try to harness
those wags."
