ROMANCE AND REALITY.

ROMANCE AND REALITY.
 (Once.) maiden dreamed some day she'd wed A suitor who would be A model for a story book Of love and gallantry. She pictured in her pretty way The kind of clothes he'd wear, The nobleness stamped on his face, His brave and manly air.
 (But.) Her husband is a sight to see, The years have wearied him, His head is quite devoid of hair, His eyes are growing dim. His legs are bent, his shoulders round. He's very weak and small. Alas, travesty, they say, And not man at all.
 (IIowever.) So much for dreams that maidens dream, And yet, 'tis not so bad. The wife we have in mind just now Is far from being sad. Altho she wed an old roue, She feels convinced, good friends, That for his great discrepancies His money makes amends. War Is unmitigated horror" says Gov- ernor Hughes. Sherman made it shorter than that.

 THE WEATHER. Iris hard to sing a song of spring When days and nights are cold And frost doth run the country OCT And recklessly enfold Each bud and bloom in chill embrace So that they perish soon. Gee whiz. we wonder If twill snow Upon the tenth Of June! The date is May 7-maybe-for Mabelle and W. Ellis Corey. A man stole barrel of whiskey in Kentucky. He wanted enough to last a week.

Professor Matched the Boss.

Boston and Cambridge people OF an
earlier day remember well Professor
Child of Harvard. scholar who was
likewise a live man. They tell with
great gusto story about his faithful
attention to city politics. Professor
Child always attended to his duties as
a citizen of Cambridge. One night he
went to a ward meeting at which a
boss began to put forth some of his
warped ideas. The college professor
was speedily on his feet and scathing-
ly denounced the boss and his methods.
After the meeting was over the good
natured boss, just to show that he bore
no ill will, met the scholar on the
stairs and, genially handing over CT
gar, said, 'Have a smoke, profess? p
His antagonist Strengthened up, took
the cigar and said with great dignity,

Didn't Get a Patent.

Among the strange applications which
reach the patent office one filed some
years ago was most extraordinary, it
being petition for patent for an ant
guard which consisted in merely draw
ing a chalk mark around a table or
other place by which it was claimed
the approach of ants was stopped. 1t
seems that chalk makes an ants legs
slip as soaping track prevents rail
way engine from starting. The petit
ton was novel and caused considera-
BILE amusement. The application, how
ever, was refused on the ground that
there was nothing new in the inven-
ton, that chalk had been used for such
purposes before and that such ideas
were not patentable.

proprietor with unlimited confidence.
