MYSTERY.
There's a wondrous lure of the I'M
known lies latent in each breast,
And curiosity is aIways found
TO hover over books and plays with
eager interest,
Where evidence and mystery abound.
Now some of us are sensible; a few Of
us are wise.
But there's one thing Of the fairy
days of tag,
We know has often opened wide our
wond'ring childish eyes,
And it's nothing but an old brown
paper bag.
How we've stood and watched its slow
advance with a wildly beating
heart,
How now at Renaissance do we
smile.
why, all it took to please us was a
chubby round jam tart,
Yet the years since then seem such
a little while.
But we've lost that subtle something
that will never once return,
Of wealth, or fame or power though
we brag,
How we treasure just the memory, how
our truant fancy yearns
To find happiness forver, in an old
brown paper bag!

Judging from the Attendance at the enter
tainment last evening l think the financial
result must be satisfactory at least | hope
so.
The Indies and gentlemen who appeared
on the stage did their best to entertain us.
The fan drill was very pretty the young
ladies', dressed in their picturesque kimon-
oes, represented the daughters Of the land
Of The Rising Sun to ? rfection.
The Band played well and the audience
was, at times, just enger to try a turn on
tie floor.
1 may describe it as being a sweet enter
tainment. What with cakes,O chocolate, ice
cream and soda il was just a bit too sweet.
Liquid bread" was under ban to touch"
and taste, in the scored ediice.

good times were near at hand. Like en-

With the weather up to now on our side,
and the consequent fourishing appearance

good news, it really looks as if Fortune were
now smiling on this important branch Of our

HER MOTHER.lN-LAW
Proved a Wise, Good Friend.

A young woman out in Ia. found q
wise, good friend in her mother-inlaw,
jokes Notwithstanding. She writes:
ut is two years since We began US
teg Postum in our house. l was great
ly troubled with my stomach, complex
ion was blotchy and yellow. After
meals l often suffered sharp pains and
would have to lie down. My mother
often told me it was the coffee drank
at meals. But when I'd quit coffee Id
have severe headache.
while visiting my motherin-law I
remarked that she always made such
good coffee, and asked her to tell me
how. She laughed and told me it was
easy to make good coffee when you
use Postum.
Il began to use Postum as soon as
got home, and now we have the same
good coffee (Postum) every day, and
have no more trouble. Indigestion is
thing Of the past and my complex
lon has cleared up beautifully.
MY grandmother suffered a great
deal with her stomach. Her doctor
told her to leave off coffee. She then
took tea but that was just as bad.
"She finally was induced to try
Postum which she has used for over
year. She travelled during the winter
over the greater part of Iowa, visiting.
something she had not been able to dc
for years. 81 says she owes her

How to Know the Trees.

There is an auctioneer whose gift
Of CAB" and native wit draw many
purchasers to his sales, but some
times he is the subject rather than
the cause of amusement.
The mans name is o. A. Kelley. Not
long ago he had to sell, among other
things, lot of pine logs, and the day
before the sale he went over them
and marked the end of each log with
his initials.
On the day Of the auction an Irish
man came along and Immediately no.
ticed the logs with the letters on them
20. A. H." he read, loud enough
for all round to hear. "Begorra. if it's
not just like Kelley to deceive us into
behaving thin pine logs are oak!"-

fast. He had seen Filipinos hanged
himself The natives came from miles
around to see an execution, and he
knew how it would be with him.
He sat and smoked through the af-
ternoon and reviewed his life. He saw
the sun go down behind the mountains
of Manila bay, and knew he would
never see that sunset again. Well, he
had killed Pascual, and there was some
satisfaction in that.
Since his trial, Juan de la Cruz, the
brother of Pascual, had come from
Manila. He hated Juan and Juan hated
him. He knew Juan would be there
at noon tomorrow to see him mount
the gallows and die, and the knowl-
edge added much bitterness to his pc.
sition.
THAT dog of dog will stand near
the gallows," thought Matias, land
laugh in my face as go by, with irons
on my hands and legs. If can, I will
spit in his eye," and much comforted
by the plan, he rolled another cigarette
and stolidly watched the soldiers test
the new rope by dropping a sack of
grain from the beam, with the sack at
the end where Matias would be at
noon tomorrow.
They brought him boiled rice. and at
dark put the death watch over him.
The sentry paced outside the guard
house, and Matias could see him
through the basket-like wall of the
prison.
Sleep? No, he would not sleep, for
there were but few hours of life left
to him and he would smoke through
the night. Pray? Why should he pray?
He had sworn to kill Pascual and God
would not blame him for killing, no
matter what the padre or the Ameri-
cans said. He would die without
sleeping or praying, and he would
show the people of FL Poro how a
Bunagan could die.
1t was very dark now, and all he
could see was the tip of his cigarette
when it flared up as he puffed it. He
could hear the sentry pacing outside,
and after while he heard bugle
blowing. and the wind swishing
through the palm trees, but he was
going to die at noon tomorrow and he
did not care what happened.
What was that? Did he hear some
thing rustic outside the bamboo wall?
1t was strange noise, and the sentry
heard 1t, for he stopped his pacing for
a minute. 1t must have been a snake
or a tree toad.
IKE sentry resumed his monoton IA
walk and Matias pulled his cigarette
