Little Lady Who Was At One Time a
World Wonder. Living Quietly

PARIS, December 1.-THE Lillipu-
tian Village. now one of the features
of Paris life. is living dream. and
as one wanders around this toylike
city with tiny houses, horses no
larger than dogs, and coaches that
bring to mind the Transformation OF
the pumpkin, and the little people
themselves, one feels like giant,
who in his wrath, might crush any
one Of these midgets with the uplift-
ing of foot.
The queen among the. 800 mites is
undispu,edly the Countess Magri, or
as she is more generally known by
the public, Mrs. General Tom Thumb.
This little woman Is today, after
i'fty-one years of life behind the
footlights, charming the Partisan
public and the hordes of tourists
from all countries by her sweetness
OF manner and natural charm. Just
as IN the days of our mothers and
grandmothers, the celebrated Lillipu-
tian, who has reached the age of 6S.
Is as marvellous as ever. Age seems
to have touched this loSable little
creature very lightly. Her hair still
retains Its dark brown color, and al
though she is stouter than she was,
her buoyancy and sprightliness OF
step are those of young woman or
rather Of a child.

THO SHADOWS FALL

Tho shadows fall, as other days
With coming night,
Yet in my heart no shadows creep
Because tits light;
'Tis light, for loving thoughts for all
l gave today
Those seeds OF Truth that beareth fruit
To live alway.
Tho shadows fall and night steals by
With reverent tread
l look into her holy eyes
With lifted head.
For Joy is mine for having tried
Nobler to live,
And from the blessings God has given
Freely to give.
Tho shadows fall, beyond the gloom
There shines a light
And / can hear a gentle call
From voice OF night
1 know that there awaits for me
Another day
on which to work, to live for Him
Who is the way.

November days are lonesome II you're plning
all alone
Il there's nobody who loves you, no one you
can call your own,
When you're sitting by the window, toward
the closing of the year,
And the dead dry leaves are dropping-yes, No
vember days drear
But November's just delightful, when the
grate-fre's burning bright,
Ard, with four feet the fender, you are sit
ting there at night
Though outside the leaves dropping, dead
and withered, brown and sere,
Yet within you feel November is the best time
of the year -Somerville Journal.

A hlmy gown of snowy white
She wore, her graduation night.

Sweet Mabel looked a royal queen
The gown in which she went away"
Was of the latest shade of gray.
She donned a sombre black OF course,
The day she sued for divorce.
Her going home to-mother" gown
Was some sad shade of rusty brown.
