Courage.

By Frank Walcott HUT.
The poorest boy is passing rich,
The humblest has the best,
Who, of the will to try again,
Cannot be dispossessed,
But tolls as bravely as he may,
And leaves to heaven the rest
The present hour is all his own
To build, and delve, and strive,
And greet all duties, great and small,
AS fast as they arrive,
And, like busy bee, to rouse
The drones within the hive
The boy who has his way to make
Has many foe to face;
But friends at every turning, too,
Will help him win his place;
And all the world will wish him we'll

Bv Chas. B. Hu1ett.

After "Bi1lie" and I returned from
Our trip to Florida, with the "Grafton
Gold AccumulatOr," and we had both
recuperated from that most trying or
deal, "Billie" for some days was rather
reticent. But it did not last long, for
one night when I came home tired and
hungry, he had everything taken off of
our large center table, and was busy
poring over a large sheet of drawing
paper, his coat and vest on the floor
(as usuaD, when not in use.
He gave me one hurried glance and
went on drawing and whistling; in a
minor key. Then he would place both
elbows on the table and frown and
pucker up his face in little knots, kick
the floor with his toes, growl and snort,
and one not accustomed to his actions
would have imagined him an escaped
1unatic. But I knew what it was and
gave a sigh, for I knew that he had
again started his inventive mill to
working, and we were in for it.
"Good evening, William Makepiece
Grafton" I said cheerfu11y. ''What
seems to be on your mind, 'Billie?' "
"We11, Mr. Maximinus Grant Rams

business if I have anything on my
mind, or any mind to hold it, so please
don't bother me, little boy; run away

he was still figuring. This state Of
affairs went on for over week, until
one nasty, rainy night had just settled
myself to read for the tenth time,
"Pudden Head Wilson," when Billie
gave a wild ye1p, and cried:
"I have got it now down to the last
detai1.'
He was so excited that the perspira-
ton stood out on his forehead like
cranberries.

claimed.

ParsifaI al GreenVilIe. Miss.

1t was in the year OF 1857 that the i'm.
mortal Richard Wagner first conceived
his idea rotating to the grand possibili-
ties contained In tho legend Of the
Holy Grail" for a wonderful spectacle
and drama. 1t was not until twenty
Ave years later, namely 1882, that his
idea was carried out to his satisfaction
aud the world was given the glorious
work of "Parsifal." 1t is said that his
first intention was to present "Parsifsl"
simply as a dramatic production, but
was induced later to change his mind
and produce it in combination music
form. By his doing so, the world gained
two grand productions instead OF the
one. 1t will forever remain as the
grandest of all music compositions. 1t
will as surely stand for all time az the
grandest drama eve written. 1t re-
quires a trained mind, a cultivated mu-
stefan, to enjoy the music OF Wagner.
One must thoroughly understand a thing
to equally enjoy it. But the simplest
tyro in dramatic experience car un-
derstand the exquisite story Of SPAR
sifal" and understanding, cannot fail TO
enjoy it. 1t is this very quality, SIM
plicity, of the story, and plot. that en-
dears the play of s.Parsifar' to the
hearts and souls of all those who wit
ness 1t. There are nc social problems
to dissect, neither are there any intri-
cate or mysterious actions On the part
Of any Of the characters in the play.
But as a spectacle that appeals to the
visual senses, as a play that in Its very
%uaturalness, soulful heart interest, alb
sorbing and thrilling plot that brings
the color to the cheeks with healthy
excitement, that quickens the hearts
action with every ennobling instinct
and interest watching the gradual un-
folding Of the beautiful story, It stands
without a peer in the dramatic flrma-
ment. Such is "Parsifal," the play that
required a quarter Of a century OF It's
author genius life to make 1t what 1t
is today the drama Of the world.
The Parsifal engagement at Green
vile is for one performance at the
Grand Opera House Nov. %. Seats or
