WHO BIDEs HIS TIME.


Who bides his time. and day by day
Faces defeat full patiently,
And lifts a mirthful roundelay,
However poor his fortunes be-
He will not fail In any qualm
or poverty; the paltry dime
It will grow golden in his palm,
Who bides his time.
Who bides his time, he tastes the sweet
or honey on the safest tear,
And though he fares with slowest feet,
JOY runs to meet him, drawing near;
The birds are heralds OF his cause,
And like never-ending rhyme,
The roadsides bloom in his applause,
Who bides his time.
Who bdes his time, and fevers not
In the hot race that none achieves,
Shall wear cool-wreathen laurel wrought
With crimson berries in the leaves
And he shall reign n goodly king,
And sway his hand Ger every cline,
With peace writ on his signet ring,
Who bides his time.

PROPER CARE OF THE WATCH
Simple Precautions That Will Save
Paying jewelers. Bills.

"Why do watches get dirty?" said
the jeweler. You'll find the answer in
your watch pocket. Turn it out"
The patron turned out his watch
pocket, sheepishly bringing forth a
pinch of mud-colored dust, some lint
and small ball of black fluff.
There's the reason" said the
jeweler. Watches get dirty because
the pockets they are carried in are
never clean. A watch pocket, my dear
sir, should be cleaned out regularly
once a week. Observe that rule and
your watch's works will not get clog
ged up again.
Another and a seasonable rule Is
never to lay your watch down on
stone or marble. The cold deranges
the delicate works.
Never lay your watch down, In
fact, anywhere. Hang it up on hook,
vertically, in the same position 1t oc'
cupies when in your pocket. Watches
are made to lie, or rather stand, IN
that position only.
wind your watch in the morning
never at night"

Snakes with Toothache.

The snake tore about its cage In
.frenzys It dashed the glass viciously
with its tail.
"That's Joe's way O. swearin'," said
the keeper. Hes got toothache."
"Toothache?"
"Sure. Snakes suffer turrible from
toothache. They're so reckless, ye see'
with their fangs. They jab EN- INTO
anything-sho leather, wood, iron
bars. They take no care OF their
fangs at all. In fact, there had ougnter
be a snake dentist to give his mates
lectures on fang hygiene.
monkeys suffer from consumption.
Consumption. too, carries off lots OF
our deer and antelope.
"Camels in captivity are subject
to the asthma, elephants to rneuma-
tism, tigers to indigestion and eagles
and vultures to melancholia."

snapdrauon seed Pods.

The antirrhinum, or snapdragon, IS
one of the old-fashioned garden flow
ers known to every one. Although 1T
is a visitor from southern Europe 1T
has been here so long that 1t has be-
come naturalized.
When we say lions mouth" frogs
mouth" "calf's mouth" rabbits
mouth" we mean snapdragon, all
these names being suggested by its
grotesque, masklike corolla. But there
is something still more grotesque II
we will wait till the seed time and
gather the dried, brown skeleton OF
the seed pod. Look at them sideways,
under a bright lamplight If possible,
and you will find they have quite
a resemblance to rhinoceros.
Remove the calyx and the little
horns on the nose, and look at them
from the front, and they have a still
more striking resemblance to human
skulls, and by turning them about you
get all sorts of queer expressions on
the grinning mouth.-St. Nicholas
Magazine.

Fishermen on Coast Of Brittany Keep
Weapon Handy.

when you go fshin' OF the rocky
coast of Brittany, you carry, by crinus,
fish ak" said the sailor.
What for?"
For octopus. Octopus Is terrible
frequent on them Shiny Breton sea
rocks They drown swimmers some
times. Sometimes they seize boats
and try to climb aboard Then you
hack off their arms with your ready
fish ak.
Il knowed a man was drowned by
an octopus of Port Manech', He swum
out to the rocks and an octopus, three
of It's feelers coiled round a ledge,
took holt of his arm with the others.
'Twant big octopus-body the size
of your head, feelers about yard
long-but it done for that man. 1t
held him there till the tide come up
and he drowned. All the time his
wife was watchin and shriekin' on the
lonely shore.
Them critters is SO fearless. Why
they don't know fear. They come
right up into a boat, starin' straight
at you with their cold eyes, an If you
amt got an ak or some sort of weap
on, you're done for.
TITS common thing, fishin' of
Brittany, to hear a tap-tappin' behint
you, and to turn and see the drat
arms of an octopus, like half-dozer
snakes, creepin' over the gunnel, feel
in their way towards you. Then thu
body, like squashed and Shiny foot
ball, appears. The cold, terrible eye'
fix themselves on yours.
well, sir, you want your fish a.
