however, that the raising of durum
wheat in North Dakota had been
given considerable attention and thai
it would be of vast benefit to the
state if the durum would be more

A HOMESlCK PIONEER.
Poetic Plant Of One Of tho Early Set
tiers In Missouri.

CeTS III tWi6SOOTts
In wonder the people Of today read
Of the persistent cheerfulness with
which the pioneers went about the
business Of settling the great west.
Nevertheless 1t somehow gratifies the
weakness of human nature to know
that there was now and then a wearer
Of the deerskin leggings and coonskin
cap who grumbled.
One early settler who went from a
snug New England village to the fever
haunted prairies along the Missouri
was moved to put his complaints into
rhymes. one Of which has survived
and Is now carefully preserved by the
descendants Of the early settler. who
live surrounded by the peaceful pros
perity and comfort of a Missouri farm
right in the heart Of the mathematical
prairie:
Oh. lonesome. windy grassy place,
Where buffalo and snake prevail
The first with dreadful looking face,
The last with dreadful sounding tall
I'd rather live on camel hump
And be n Yankee Doodle beggar
Than where I never see a stump
And shake to death with fever'n ager.
Judging from the last line. one might
conclude that an acute attack Of lager
had suddenly prevented him from con.
tinuing.

LAW AND LITERATURE.
Writers Who Might Have Won RePuta'
ton at the Bar.

The old connection between law and
literature was strengthened 10y the late
Sir Lewis Morris. who practiccd as a
couyeyaucer in Lincoln's Inn while he
was esta blshing his reputation as Il
poet. There have been several poets
who have abandoned the steep places
of the bar for the slopes Of Parnassus.
but the late Sir Lewis Morris Is the
only poet of rcpute who has found the
tasks of convcyancer not Incompatible
with the cultivation of the muse. Il
d. Blackmore the author of Lorna
Dome" practiced as Il conveyancer for
several years. Sir Walter Scott, speak
ing OF himself and law. said. There
was no great love between us. and II
pleasel heaven to decrease it on fur
ther acquaintance" Most of the poets
who have sprung from the legal profess
sion appear to have entertained the
same unfavorable view. Cowper. who
was Il fellow pupil of Lord Thurlow in
an attorneys Office. was called to the
bar at the Middle Temple but he quick
ly yielded himself to the charms of
literature Denham was member of
Lincoln's Inn, and Thomas Gray. the
author of the famous "Elegy Written
In Country Churchyard." studied for
the bar but neither of these got beyond
the apprenticeship stage. Barry Corn

A WINDOW AND A WAR.
Costly Incident Of the Reign Of Louis
XIV. Of France.

A terrible war was once caused By a
window.
1t was in the days when Louis XIV.
lie Grand Monarque," was dazzling
Europe. His minister. LouvOis, was
experimenting on the kings behalf
the building Of the palace Of the Tri.
anon In the park at Versailles. Louis
inspected the buildings one afternoon
and declared one Of the windows to be
out Of shape and smaller than the rest
This LouvOis denied, and the king
had the window measured, with the
result that he was proved to be right
and he openly before all the court ridi-
culed Louvois.
But the minister had his revenge.
for with the angry ejaculation that he
would find better employment for a
monarch than that of insulting his IA
vorites, he embrolled France by his
insolence in u quarrel with the powers.
which only ended years later in the
peace Of Ryswick after a war which
entailed the loss of many lives and the
expenditure of large sums Of money

Coinu Chores.

To dig ones own potatoes, to shock
ones own corn, to pick ones own ap-
pies, to pile ones own squashes at
ones own barn! 1t is like filling ones
system with an antitoxin before going
into fever plagued country. One is
immune to winter after this, provided
he stays to bake his apples in his own
wood fire. One works himself into a
glow with all his digging and picking
and pillng that lasts until warm wealth
er comes again, and along with this
harvest glow comes stealing over him
the after harvest peace. 1t Is the Sc
rcnity Of Indian summer, the mood Of
the after harvest season, upon him

Wonderful Pews,

"Are you aware" said the antiquary,
"that there are certain church pews to
which the contribution basket Is never
passedY
NO"
1T is fact. These pews are in GER
tain old churches in Philadelphia, in
Boston and in number Of New Eng.
land villages. They have been rented
on a noncontribution basket basis for
a couple Of centuries. In the past, 1t
is said, men slept in church. They even
played draughts there, and the advent
of the contribution basket. would have
been an amazing interruption to them.
So for very much higher rental they
obtained pews that the collectors ig.
nored. These pews in churches that
like to keep up the quaint customs of
the past are still maintained"

IT WROTE ITSELF.
The Authors Story Of the Origin Of
my Maryland"


Brander Matthews wrote an account
of the circumstances under which
<'Maryland, My Maryland" was writ
ten, and the POEMS author, James
Ryder Randall, approved Professor
Matthews account. In April, 1861,
Colonel Randall read in the New Or.
leans Delta news Of the attack on the
Massachusetts troops as they passed
through Baltimore.
This account greatly excited me"
Mr.. Randall wrote in answer to let
ter from Professor Matthews. II had
Gong been absent from my native city,
land the startling event there Influenced
my mind That night could not dis
miss from my mind what l had read
An the paper. About midnight arose,
ait a candle and went to my desk.
Some powerful influence seemed to
possess me, and almost invOluntarily
i proceeded to write the song of My
Maryland.'
81 remember that this idea seemed to
take shape as music in my brain-some
wild air that I cannot now recall. The
whole poem was dashed off rapidly
when once begun. 1t was not COM
posed in cold blood, but under what
may be called a confiagration Of the
senses if not an inspiration Of the in
tellect. No one was more surprised
than was at the widespread and in.
Simultaneous popularity had been so
strangely stimulated to write"
Colonel Randall always told his
friends that the poem "wrote itself."-
