That Time. repenting Of the past.
Hath tardiiy accorded thee
Thy due at last?
The heavy burden and the load
The world hath heaped upon thy bacl
Havo found reward In cuss and goad
And sounding whack.
The horse hath pranccd through rhyme

(E'en one OF wood at Troy got fame)
But who hath tried In history long
To boost thy game?
But now across the wires we're told
OF how thief with burgl'ous tool
Attacked stable. pinched an old
Honduran mule.
And how the Nicaraguan who
Purioined that mule unclaimed the

Which freed. although he never knew,
The dogs OF war.
So dusky braves shall soak the earth
With brunette gore In many a pool.
And all to demonstrate thy worth.

are not affected. Dairy and farm
products continue strong at recent

MONEY AND ITS BLESSINGS.

Perhaps no other city in the world
receives more wtndfalls than Paris.
Men who create great wealth In
trade. industry or art seldom omit
to leave important legacies to be
utilized for scientific or philanthropic
purposes.
The Philanthropic society has just
received notification of a welcome
windfall. Arthur Merce, the great
painter of historical subjects, has
placed at the society's disposal his
magnifcene dwelling, with its an
nexes. and a sum Of 100000.
The society will create a sanitari-
UNI for consumptives. a dispensary
and a night shelter for the poor OF
both sexes. The painter possesses a
farm IN the Seine-et-Oise district. He
has disposed Of It, so that house of
refuge can be founded. In this home
the poor mothers of Paris, who are
unable to pay nurses, will be receiv-
ed with their children and kept for
two years. To the proceeds of the
farm M. Mercie adds $4,000.
The painters benefactions do not
end there. To the Institute Of France
he leaves $4,000, and to the city a
remarkable collection OF paintings
and works of art. The city further
receives $4,000 for the founding of
annual prizes for the encouragement
Of we'll doing.
Thus does the world receive bene-
factions from a man rich In money
and also rich in the love and esteem
Of millions. Although they know
him not, hundreds will rise to bless
his name for the simple reason that
he has regard for his fellow men. II
the wealth of the world was In the
hands of such men as Merice there
would be less conflict between labor
and capital and in place Of the strife
and envy In the commercial world
there would be Just as much pros
perity and more real happiness.

BETTER THAN CALIFORNIA.

The Tacoma Ledger gives a few in
teresting statements In regard to tho
Herald story which told of the re-
fusal of $4,000 for two-thirds of an
acre OF pears. The editorial writer
OF the Ledger will no doubt gasp
when he hears OF the even bigger
story in which the same man. Mr..
Fsrman. who refused $4,000. sold
half an acre of the fruit for $500.
1t is interesting to note that Yakima
farmers are making more money
from pears than the orange growers
OF California are coming from their
fruit. The Ledger editorial is re-
printed in full:
"a fruit buyer OF North Yakima
the other day offered $4,000 for the
pears on two-thirds Of an acre and
he would pick and pack them him
self. This is almost beyond belief,
yet the Yakima Herald gives the
name of the fruit buyer and says he
used to own the land on which the
pears are now ripening. No won
der good fruit lands in this state
command prices to which agricultur-
lists just from the east have never
been accustomed. One may be sure
that the owner of a pear orchard
that produces such crop would ask
a very fancy price. In the
two-thirds of an acre with the
bumper crop are sixty-two trees.
The buyer offers an average Of lit
tie over $32 tree. That Is a great
er income than the orange growers
Of Southern California receive from
a tree"
