A VOYAGE of Death.

In the Sea Of Okhotsk the salmon are
suicidal and one Of the most startling
examples Of the spendthrift side Of
nature may be found in the rivers
that run into this sea- When six years
old the salmon begin voyage Of
death. Ascending the river Of their in
fancy they race in countless thousands
upstream until lack Of food and lack
Of elbow room kill them off. A recent
traveller declares that however many
millions Of salmon may run up the
river, not one ever reaches the sea
again alive. What becomes Of the
rivers of dead salmon? The seagulls
wheel down upon the scene and feast
upon their eyes, scorning anything less
dainty. Bears, wolves, foxes and
sledge dogs are made comfortable for
the year.

SILVER WEDDINGS.

They Had Their Origin In the Reign
of Hughes capet.
The fashion Of silver weddings dates
back to the reign Of Hughes Capet,
king Of France in 9S7.
Once as Hughes was arranging his
uncle's affairs he found on one Of the
estates servant who had grown gray
in the service of his relative. He had
been such friend Of his master that
he was almost looked upon as one of
the family.
On the farm with this old man was
also serving woman who was as old
as he and also unmarried and who had
been the. most devoted and hardwork-
ing Of the women servants Of the kings
uncle When the king heard these
praises Of the two, he ordered them to
be brought before him and said to the
woman:
"Your service is great, greater than
this mans, whose services were great
enough, for the woman always finds
work and obedience harder than a
man, and therefore I will give you a
reward At your age I know Of none
better than a dowry and husband.
The dowry is here-this farm from this
time forth belongs to you. If this man
who has worked with you five and
twenty years is willing to marry you,
then the husband is ready"
'sYour majesty" suffered the old
peasant confusedly, chow is it possible
that we should marry, having already
silver hairs?'
'sThen it shall be a silver wedding"
answered the king, "and here I give
you wedding ring drawing a costly
ring from his finger and placing the
hands Of the thankful old people to-
gether.
This soon became known all over
France and raised such enthusiasm
that it became a fashion after a twen-
ty-fve years marriage to celebrate a
silver wedding.

The Horses Nose.

It is easy to tell horses character
by his nose, according to an army Off
Ger. If the profile has a gentle curve
and at the same time the ears are
pointed and sensitive the animal may
be depended on as being gentle and at
the same time high spirited. On the
other hand, if the horse has a dent in
the middle Of his nose it is safe to SET
him down as treacherous and vicious
A horse with slight concavity in the
profile will be easily scared and need
coaxing, while one that droops his ears
is apt to be both lazy and vicious.

THE POET WHITTIER.
How He Met His Only Love and How
They Drifted Apart.

How He Met His Only Love and How
They Drifted Apart.
John Greenleaf Whittier was one Of
the sweetest poets that this country or
any other has ever produced, and this
in spite of the fact that he was doom
ed to live and die bachelor.
In the spring Of 1923, when the poet
was about twenty years old, he did his
first and last counting.
In the quaint old town Of Marble
head, in the home Of a well to do ship
master, dwelt Evelina Bray, the ship
masters daughter Evelina was sweet
sixteen" as pretty as peach and as
pure as the wood violets with which
she loved to decorate her hair, and
with the wfnsome, modest maiden
Whittier fell desperately in love.
During the aforementioned spring
time as the flowers were creeping up
from under the snow and the land
touches Of the summer to come young
Whittier went down to Marblehead
found Evelina and told her of the sen
ttment that he could no longer conceal
To his joy he learned that the senti-
ment was reciprocated.
But the course of true love did not
yet run smooth" and it was already
decreed that Whittier's was to be q
*1ost love-
The shipmaster of Marblehead was q
worldly man, and one Of his chief de
lights when on shore was to hear his
daughter play on the piano and sing
while Whittiers parents as well as
Whittier himself were Of the strictes1
sect Of the Quakers, in whose eyes {
plano was an emblem Of sin and music
the sure and certain mark Of wicked
ness.
Between these opposite, antagonistit
and incorporating views Of things
there was no concord possible Whit
/, tier knew it, Evelina knew It, and, like
the philosophers that they were, they
concluded to say no more to each othel
upon the tender subject-and they new
er did
Five years later, in 1888 the coupl.
met again, but no word was spoken O
the affection that each knew was ii
! the others heart It was the meeting
\ of friends that WIS All.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1907-06-26

It was not until 1885, at a class re
union at the Haverhill academy, that
the poet and his sweetheart again stood
face to face. Since he had last be
held her afty-two years had rolled
away. The two were now old. The
rose had faded from Evelina's cheek,
and into her lovers face wrinkles had
stolen, and upon his head old Time
had left his rime.
But the heart never grows old; love
is immortal immortality young and
fresh and, parting from his old love
forever, the poet went home to write
the touching lines
Look forth once more through space and
time
And let thy sweet shade fall
In tenderest grace Of soul and form
On memory's frescoed wall
A shadow and yet all.
