A VALENTINE.

Ito an Unfamiliar Facet
Lady with the wreath-bound hair,
Lady with the profile fair,
And the lips that smile at me
Cts a smile Of rarity;
10, before your face l bow.
l so rarely see you now,
Maid-or goddess-most divine
Won't you be my Valentine?
You've a voice that rings so clear,
And SO pleasant to the ear;
You've a look I like to get,
You're a hit with me, you bet!
Almost twenty, aren't you? Well
Though you do not like to tell
You we're born in eighty-nine-
Won't you be my Valentine?
There are millions just like you.
Some are old and some are new,
But I'm surely in their thrall
While they stay around at all.
Every dollar, everywhere,
Has your face upon 1t there
Lady of the dollar sign,
Won't you be my Valentine?

Social Democrats Active.

Berlin, Feb. 13-One of the sides
of the emperor's character of which
not a great deal mas been said Is his
love for music. His attendance at the
opera is very frequent. and he has
never been known to leave until the
curtain has fallen on the last act.
He takes an active interest In the
arrangement Of the programs for the
court concerts, which are laid before
him for approval by Richard Strauss,
musical director of the palace. and
they rarely leave his majesty's hands
without some suggestion for a change.
His taste lies in the direction OF the
older composers. He is a great ad.
mirer of Wagner, but Bach and Bee
thoven compositions are also among
his favorites. He often attends the
final rehearsals Of the palace choir
before a court concert, and appears to
derive much amusement from them.
1t was on his majesty's initiative
that the current comprehensive collec-
lions Of military marches, folio songs
and choruses we're gathered together
and it was he who suggested to Rich
ard Strauss that he should compose
the new marches Tor the army which
have recently become SC popular.
Devoree o. Music.
Not only is his majesty a devotee Of
music. but he has taken care to pro-
mote the musical taste OF the imperial
family, all Of whom have gone through
a course Of musical instruction.
The crown prince makes violin play
ing the hobby Of his leisure hours. but
he cannot be said to be a great player.
His imperial father requested ia
scham to superintend his instruction,
