When the Snow is on the Sill.

A simple meal though this may be
Of bread and butter, luscious honey,
And dainty cup of fragrant tea,
| feast besides on that which money
Can never buy; for though the chill
And stormy wind the snow is pilng
In deep'ning drifts upon the sill,
Yet, winters dreariness bcguiling,
Come pictured scenes Of sun and shine;
/ hear again the bees loud drOning,
The rustling corn, the lowing kline,
The quail's mOnOtOnOuS informing.
l see the furrOw brown and bare
The budding green the slim stalk bend
ing,
Quaint shadows dancing everywhere
In rhythmic fantasies intending;
Behold the grain in bounteous sheaves
Up in the field of stubbly yellow;
The splendor of the crims' ming leaves.
And DER the resting earth the mellow
And dreamy light of purple haze;
Now from the rip'ning fruits distilIing
Come spicy o1orS-autumn days
The promises of spring fulfilling.
So. on my board the loaf of wheat,
And the aroma of the clover
In golden butter stored, and sweet
White honey culled by ligl,t-winged
rover
Meath summer skies from myriad flow
erS,
Are now to mind these scenes recalling,
While chill winds blow. and storm
cloud lowers.
And snow en- roof and sill is piling.

Daily Life in America.

Al recent dinner in London the con-
Versatlon turned Ito the subject OF lynch-
ing in the United States. 1t was the gen
eral opinion that a large percentages of
Americans met death at the end of I.
rope. Finally the hostess turned to an
American who had taken no part in the
conversation, and said:
You sir. must have often seen these
affairs"
Yes" he replied, I'VE take a kind of
municipal pride in seeing which city can
show the greatest number of lynchings
yearly"
"Oh, dc tell us about a Iynching YOU
nave seen yourself broke in half a
dozen voices at once
The night before l sailed for Eng
land, said the American. II was giving
dinner at hotel to a party of init
mate friends when 4 colored waiter
spilled a plate of soup over the gown of
lady at an adjoining table. The gown
was utterly ruined. and the gentlemen
OF her party at once seized the waiter,
tied a rope around his neck. and at a
signal from the injured lady, swung
him into the air.
Horrible" said the hostess with a
shudder: And did you actually see this
yourself?'
Well. no admitted the American
alphabetically. Just at that moment
happened TO be downstairs killing tia
chef for putting mustard in the blanc

Earthquake PHILOSOPHY.

The philosophic editor of the Hart
ford Courant gets consolation out o
the declaration of a scientist tina
earthquakes are no more frequent thar
formerly, but that their more frequen
report is due to the wider scope of the
news gathering field. This is a rea'
sonable view to take, and a most COM
fcrting one. The indications all ART
that earthquakes and volcanic erup'
tons are losing their vigor and have
done their worst. 1t is obvious to any
body in almost any part Of the world
that the time has been when it would
not have been safe to stand where he
is at the moment standing. The whole
world is torn and twisted, or else is
easily conceived to have been at the
bottom of the sea. The chaos has been
is playing out. These considerations
lead the Hartford Courant to remark
that on the other hand it is to be re-
nembered that We have been doing
things in our recent and progressive
days that never were done before and
that may have their disastrous effect.
Says the COurant:
Look at the amount of oil that has
been taken out of the earth. What
has taken its place? So, too, of natural
gas; where does that come from and
what takes it's place? Who knows what
electricity is and whether claiming it
as we do may not be fooling with,
perhaps arousing. the mighty forces
that have torn the whole world in the
past. A corner of Jamaica is shaken
and some of it, perhaps. drops into the
sea. But what brought the whole
island to the surface? What has lifted
up the bottom of the sea? How come
the remains of sea monsters to De-
found under ground on the plains of
the West? What caught the fish in
disaster by millions when the present
phosphate beds were forming? Where
did the mountains come from? The
forces that have given the world it's
shape have been exercised on so
mighty a scale that. beside their
the little disturbances
that threaten us nowadays are in
significant"

Professional Ethics.

A lawyer in the Indian Territory named
who had killed a neighbor. McGann got
the man out on bail on the plea of justi-
fable homicide. or something of the kind
and the farmer Immediately took his
gun and killed the chief witness against
him. Naturally, this nettled the Sheriff
and the Judges, and they offered $500 re-
ward for the murderous farmer. Say
said McGann to the Sheriff, will you
give me- that reward if I get him.?
Yes" the sheriff replied. and McGann
rode out to the hiding place of his client
The farmer came up. and Mccain shot
him. took the body back to town and
demanded the reward. How about this
McGann?" asked another lawyer do
you think it in accordance with the ethics
of the legal profession to take advantage
of your client in that manner?" Ethics
