Roosevelt's Topic.

In one of his many letters to our
society President Roosevelt said: For
one of your topics in the International
Congress how would it do to speak of
the position which the father occupies
in the home? Now and then people
forget that exactly as the mother must
aid the breadwinner by being a good
housewife, so the father in his home
must in every way back up the mother
in the bringing up of the children
After all, the prime duties are ele-
mental. No amount of cultivation or of
business force and sagacity will avail
to make a man a good citizen unless
that man is good husband and father,
a successful breadwinner, tender and
considerate to his wife and wise and
loving to his children, for to be loving
and foolish would be utterly ruinous in
dealing with the little ones.'

1t is difficult for us to form any
conception of the degree of cold repre-
scented by the 80 degrees of frost re-
corded from certain parts of Russia.
Sir Leopold McClintock tells how in
one of his Arctic expeditions, sailor
was foolish enough TO do some out
door work at precisely this tempera-
ture. His hands froze, and when he
rushed into the cabin and plunged one
of them into a basin of water so cold
was the hand that the water was in
stantly converted into block of ice.
At 25 degrees, Doctor Kane says, "the
mustache and under lip form pendu-
lous beads of dangling ice. Put out
your tongue and it instantly freezes
to this icy crusting. Your chin has

MAYING.

Lets all go Maying," the nurse maid
said,
And she tossed the baby clear up to
her head,
Then cuddled her down in her willow
shay,
With bib, and bottle and pussy, and
Tray,
To play;-while the nurse maid
danced l wean,
The merriest lass on the village
green.
LET us go Maying," the children said
And away to brook and meadow they
sped,
And the boys chased hares, and
fought the bees,
And clambered for birds nests up the
trees,
While wading the brook went the
merry girls,
And weaving of wreaths for their sun
ny curls.
"Why Phillis" said Damon, "the village
green
Is waiting now for it's chosen queen;
Anu SHdJCuluS ncI manu-, With q miss
and a bound,
They soon were joined in the merry

And none so happy as Damon that
day,
AS they danced around Phillis, the
queen of the May
And the folks sat meath the auld roof
tree,
Where catching the sound of the dis
tant glee,
They talked of their sports in the
long ago,
And sighed that shrivel, and crown
of snow
Should e'er on that rosy throng be
seen;
That fair young troop on the village

helped to determine what portion was

served that the wall fronting on Broad
street is of thin yellow bricks These
are the same kind as are found in the
old Dutch church in Tarrytown. In
order to secure an additional supply
to fill up the opening on the first floor
they had to be made to order In a
yard in Holland where bricks of the
same size and kind are still made. The
bricks ON the Pearl street side are red.
AS they are an inch longer and some
what thinner than the bricks made
to-day it was only by searching
through many yards, tape measure in

the old building was put back into a
shape that would probably be recog
nized by "Black Sam" Fraunces If he
should appear to-day.
The property, which is now used
as the headquarters of the Sons Of the

an expenditure of nearly $4,000, the
restoration alone having cost nearly
