DECLINED WITH THANKS.

I have purchased a scrap book,
And with humbed pride l look
Upon its pages filing fast with little
paper slips;
The first ones [ received
Made me really feel aggrieved,
Those most polite Of little notes, re-
turned with manuscripts.
Now, please make no mistake,
We no criticism make,
You really must not think so, do not
take it in that way,
For it is an honest fact
That the stories we send back
Another often will accept, goodly
sum viii pay"
"While your story it is fine,
1t is not within our line.
1t is with much regret we send this
little slip of blue. -
And, "The story you submit
Does not our needs just fit:
We're overstocked with fiction We
return with thanks to you
Ny dialogue came back
With the fiction in it s track,
Also the illustrated kind, and the
descriptive stuff;
Still III have another try,
And I now will versify
To prove I am no gutter and can
still keep up bluff.
But wouldn It it be fine
If the slip came back in rhyme7
1t might give me 81 inkling where
the meter rang untrue;
With the aid of this small hint
[ might get a verse in print
And just for once receive check,
and not slip of blue.

To those who are fond of tripping
the light fantastic the past week has
been one continuous round of pleasure.
Not only has there been dancing at one
of the hotels each night during the
week but on Thursday evening there
were dances in full swing at the Young,
MOana and Seaside hotels.
With the arrival of the Z. S. S. st.
Louis on Saturday the round of dances
started with a delightfully."- informal
little hop at the Moana in honor of the
officers of the cruiser at which their
brother officers who are stationed here
turned out in full force.
Tuesday evening Captain Gleaves and
the wardroom officers of the st. Louis
reciprocated with one of the prettiest
little naval dances that has taken place
in months. The affair was given On
board the ship and was attended by
local Army and Navy officers and a
favored few townspeople, the limited
space on the ship making it absolutely
necessary to curtail the invitation list.
Thursday the arrival of the U. S.
Army transport Sheridan was the signal
for the announcement of dances on
Thursday evening at the Young, Moana
and Seaside hotels. All of these were
well attended and the dividing Of the

The Swiss ire. perhaps, the oldest example of a people living permanently under that regime, and there has never been Il Swiss composer of any note or of eye:' moderate ability. Against this it n@y be urged that the American democ ncy is unquestionably sui generis that nothing like it has ever existed before, and that for this reason, being iu a position to make precedent for ourselves we need not necessarily con pider democracy per Sc as inimical to musical development. On the con. trary, the very variety of the elements which are now forming the American nation would argue in favor of the possibility of the foundation of a na- tioual school of music, which, fin unit ing the characteristics of many peo- ples, might in time develop Into some, thing broader and stronger. fresher, more vital and more spontaneous than anything the world has hitherto seen Reginald de Koven in North Ameri can Review.

A Sian of Death.

There may have been many signs |of death-so some people believe-but one described here Is probably new to many. Mir. w. R. Cooper of Chelten- ham tells of his father being i'll, but not confined to bed, and one sunny day In June when he walked across the garden another man, the facsimile of his father, met him and apparently passed into him"
 Shortly after my father came to me and said, Did you see me 80 across 1.-the garden:' I said, Yes We'll he |said, I shan't be here long. Our fam lily zee themselves before they die |AlthougA had seen this. l said, Non sense.' Re shook hls head and walked eway. Shortly after he took to his
 ped and died July 5. My father during
 the few days he was in bed-we were
 haymaking at the time-asked each
 morning. Which field are you in now?'
 when we came to certain field called
 Cadley.' he said, with a sigh of great
 'at1sfaction, 'Ah, l shall die now.'"
 He died the same morning near mid
