THE DAUGHTERS MARRIAGE.


Gone. gone from the old home nest
From the heart that for years has Civ.
end thee:
Didst long, dear bird, to try thy wings,
Fe:tered and bound by my poor heart
strings?
Gone. gone from the old home nest,
To folu thy wings on strangers
breast;
A few short months, and loves bright
chain
Hath made of thee a prisoner again!
Gone, gone from the old home nest
May thy trusting heart neer know un-
rest;
May the one thou hast chosen from all
otner men
Be tender with thee, as have been.
Gone, gone from the old home nest,
Trusting in strangers to be caressed:
While thy heart is fresh and its notes
are gay,
They'll be pleased, perhaps, with thy
simple lay.
Gone, gone from the old home nest
Strange that the heart is ever in quest
OF something beyond, like the dove
that bore
The olive branch, to return no more.
Gone, gone from the old home nest!
In future should sorrow become thy
guest,
Should loves bright links be severed
in twain,
Come back, dear bird, to thy home
again.

Out-Of-tOWn visitors know more
about New York than native New
Workers do. says the New York Telc-
graph. We are the most provincial
people II the United States when it
comes down to the fine point. I was
talking to the conductor Of n of the
| sightseeing cars in front Of h Times
Building recently and we discussed
this subject.
He said Il have only been here a
little more than a year, but I'm CON
dIctiu2 this car and showing the won
doris Of the city to strangers. Last
fall we took n crowd of New York so
cicty people out on Il sightseeing tour.
You would have been aStOnishcd to
discover how little they know about
New York. Outside of their calling
lists, the churches they attend and the
tnentcrs they know almost nothing.
THEFT curiosity was ~unbounGed. They
wanted to know who lived In every
house we passed. They seemed to be
hungry to learn something which their
manner of living had denied them.
They had a curiosity to find where
people lived who were not in their
social list. They actually did not 10Y
the names OF streets.
Il never conducted such a curious
party. They interested me as much as
they were interested. I never was 80
close to the upper en- before, aud I
got all the good out Of it I could. :
never had a nicer party Of people on
my car, but I never had n that asked
so many questions and knew 80 little
about New York. They all declared
it was one of the jolliest evenings they
ever spent. or course we started from
One Of their 9Th g residences and
the crowds on the street did not KNOW
that we were hauling around all those
hundreds Of millions of dollars that
day. and nothing was ever said about
it, but 9TH avenue had us loaded down
that day n each passenger declared
he WAS going to come often. I wish
they would. They made me work. but

IL near that Bilkins has been pro-
noted again. said the young man with

He must have plenty of brains to get
along so FAST
"Oh, l don't know said h youth
who was lansuidly smoking a cigar
cite. "Bllkins always was n lucky
chap"
"But,' argued the young man with
the partly colored m~eerschaum pipe,
you surely won't attempt to explain
luck. According to the dope handed
out by Il successful men, it takes more
than luck to succeed in business"
"Oh, forget it. All it takes is a com
blnation Of luck and brass. | went to
scho"! with Ei!kins and worked iii the
same "fTir" with him for a while, until
l got tired and quit because there was
no chance for advancement there, so l
ought to know to what he owes his rise.
Even az far back as oar kid school days
his luck WAS in good working order"
"IIe had quite a rrT"tation rs a stu
dent" said the young man with the
partly CoIorNd mrCrsrlltun pipe. Guess
that wasn't due to luck. hnh?'
"Thcr" you go. He had a reputation
sentimental young woman with a
strongly defined partially for blondes,
and you know what light curly hair and
innocent blue eyes Bllkins has. We
hadn't been in the room a week before
she was clean gone on him. But that
wasn't all. Alon. with his pull with
the teacher, Bilkins was chock full of
conceit and took every possible oppor-
tunity Of showing Off"
ut was nervy Of him to try when he
did not know commented the young
man with the partly colored nicer
schaum pipe.
We'll, I suppose you can call 1t that
said the youth with the cigarette, but
[ should say it was just n plain case OF
luck and brass. And the same com
bination has been In good working or
der ever since he entered business.
E1om the first day he entered the office
Of that electric company, little better
than an office boy, he showed the same
brass that characterized him at school.
He made a perfect nuisance of himself.
When he wasn't busy with his own
work he was Fostering the clerks with
questions about their work and details
of the office that were ne concern of
his"
Didn't the boss ever call him
down."
"Oh, no. That's where his luck came
In. He hadn't been In the office more
than three months before one of the
clerks quit and Bilklns was given the
Job"
so tllat's how he got his first post:'
granted the young man with the part
ly cclorcd m"eerschaum pipe.
yes" continued the young man with
the cigarette. "And it came near being
his last, too. The work was hard and
Bilklns was pretty green at 1t, and II
It had not been for his pull with the
head clerk he would have been canned
in short order. The head clerk helped
BiIkins along. At that Bilkins was
forced to work like fun to keep up with
the procession. When I came down in
the morning he was hard at 1t, and
when I left in the evening he was still
working.

Getting Even.

Advice in law applied in an unprO-
fessional way is sometimes rs effective
as regular court procedure. An incident
of thirty or forty years ago illustrates
this point. It is told by Joseph A.
Willard in "IIalf a Century with
Judges and lawyers Mr.. Willard
was in a friends law Office n day.
when a client came in for advice.
He said that he had hired Il horse to
go to a n~eighboring town for a dollar,
but when he had returned the stable
keeper asked hin for a dollar more.
what for?' the client was asked.
"For the ride back"
The lawyer gave some Instructions.
later he went to the stable keeper and
asked how much it would cost to hire
a horse and buggy to 30 to Salem.
Five dollars" vas the reply.
The client hired the team and went
to Salem. When he returned he came
on the cars. He went to the stable
and paid the keeper five dollars.
"Where is my horse and buggy" asl>-
ed the owner.
"In Salem was the unconcerned re-
ply.
why did you leave them thereT
cried the keeper.
II only hired them to go to Sa1em,'
answered the client.
