THE LITTLE TREE.

In the middle of the wood stood a
great pine tree, with baby pine at
its foot. The mother pine was so tall
that she could look over the heads
of all the other trees, but the little
one was not larger than the ferns and
yellow violets that grew around it.
Stand up straight, my dear" said
the old tree.
"Yes. mammc," said the baby pine
"you always say that.
"Of course" said the mother pine.
''How I should feel if you grew up
with a crook in your stem! l knew
little tree once that was not care
full to stand straight, and so all its
life it bent to one side. One night
there cane great Wild, and the
crooked tree went down with dread
full crash; and it carried with it an
owls nest that was built in its top,
and broke all the eggs. Just think
of that! Now, if you will Go as
say, you will grow up tall, straight
pine, and the jolly little sunbeams
will call on you first in the morning
and stay with you longest at night y
"I will try my best, mamma" said
the good little tree, and it drew itself
up. Now it happened to be Arbor
Day, and the children were hunting
for tree to transplant.
ooh, look here" called Violet.
''Here is a dear little pine, and it is
Just as straight as an arrow!"

''This is just the one for u.s." Then
they dug up the tiny tree and planted
it beside the school-house with due
honors.-From the Christian Regis

Their Political Convictions.

Some old time politicians were not
content with wearing ribbons IS an
outward and visible sign of their con-
victions. In those days" writes Il
follower of Pitt who bore the sooth-
ing name of James Bland Burgess,
men had the courage of. their con-
victions, and would have made mot
ley their garb to distinguish them
selves from their opponents. To be-
long to the Constitutional Club was
a very simple affair--no ballotinS or
fees beyond cost Of costume.
"a gentleman desirous of becom-
iug q member wrote his name in the
club book and hurried to the tailor to
be measured for a dark blue frock
with a broad orange velvet cape and
large yellow buttons, round each of
which was inscribed Constitutional
Club" The waistCoat was OF blue
kerseymere, with yellow buttons. b0r-
dered ali round with orange colored
silk. ard the breeches Of white ker-
seymerc with yellow buttons. In
roint of taste We certainly beat the
blue and buff of our opponents. -

TIE LOCONIOTO.


The locomoto is the thing that pulls the
rallWayCarS.
1t passes through the meadow, behind the
pasture bars.
You can't essactly see it, cause there's
such a lot of trees,
But listen, and you'll hear 1t, most any
time yCu please.
Not when it's going to Boston, but every
body knows
When it is coming back again, cause then
the whistle blows,
And I'm sure that I can tell you who 1t is
talking to
When it whizzes round our corner, and
calls, "Hul-loo, Lulu!
It wakes me in the morning and it's just as
ii it said
That I'm a little lazybones for lying here
1t calls again at dlnner-tlme, as II 1t un-
derstands
That | must leave my garden, ard so in
and wash my hands,
And when I've finished supper, and am up
on daddy's knee.
And he's telling about Indians, as creepy
as can be,
1t makes me jump like anything, though
That in the most essiting part it's going
to holler 50.
At first it used to frighten me, but now
we're reg'lar chums,
It tells me-never you mind what.-most
every time it comes,
Since | went down to the station with
daddy in the cart, :,
And saw if standing putting there, all
ready for the start.
I went and stood beside it, and l said,
How do you do?
I am the little Lulu that you're always
calling to-"
The locomoto gave a jump, and started
with a rush,
But first little puff of steam came out and
whispered, "Fush!"
You see I'd like to tell you what it's al
ways saying now,
But you wouldn't understand it, and L
couldn't, anyhow!
It's secrets, very interesting, new one
every day, =,
But ] really couldn't tell you, when it
whispered, "Hush!" that way!
But when / hear it coming, at dlnner-tlme,
] run
And climb up on the paddock bars, as bold
as any one;
I wave my hand like anything, and shout,
How do you do?"
And the locomoto whizzes by, and calls,
"Hul-loo, Lulu"

The Reason Men Have Clubs.

If, as is most probable, you are not.
the wretched man, for the sake OF
peace, must-well, prevaricate; and
if you really are. for PHYS sake let
him keep the knowledge of such
calamity to himself. The meekest OF
men object to being catechised, asked
where he has been, and where he is
going. Is it any wonder that men
invented clubs, to have at once
refuge and a subterfuge?
If you have so treated man that
he realizes you are interested in his
concerns, and knows that the absence
of questioning on your part arises
not from Indifference, but from trust,
he will tell you all his affairs; but,
compared with a man who finds his
wife inquisitive, an oyster is COM
municative!
An annoying and ridiculous ques-
ton to ask a busy man on his return
from his days work is, Have you
missed me, darling?" Of course he
has not. He has been working for
you instead.-Home Chat.

PUGNACIOUs EAGLE OWL.

On his way home one evening last
October from HARDENING railway sta
ton, in central Sweden, a young man
when passing through small wood
was vigorously attacked by an eagle
owl. Alighting on his shoulder, the
bird inflicted some severe wounds with
it's powerful beak and claws, and
when beaten off it carried off his cap
in token of victory.
Some years ago several similar at
tacks by eagle owls occurred during
the summer months in the province
of Vester Gotland, in one of which an
unfortunate old man lost an eye.
A correspondent of the Swedish Pc
riodical Fran Skog och Sio states that
in the part of Vermeland to which he
belongs there was an eagle owl which
became we'll known for its repeated
attacks on human beings who CHANGED
to come near it's abode. While cut
ting timber one day man was as
sailed by the bird, which drove its
claws into the upon part of his body.
He managed to get rid of it, but it
at once came on again, when blow
from his axe put an end to it's further
attentions. A peasant in the parish
of Stammar, Nerike, had a similar
experience in April last. He was
fetching water from a lake close by
his house when an eagle owl suddenly
flew at him A kick made it retire
few yards, when it came in contact
with the fence. This seemed to irri-
tate it, for it returned to the attack,
but the man seized it by the neck,
tucked it under his arm and carried
it off home.
On the way the owls mate kept fly
ing around in unpleasantly close prox-
unity. Ultimately the captor had to
despatch his prisoner, his wife and
children being much scared at its for.

The crossing from France to Eng
land in an air craft, while at present
remarkable and unusual, presages
the day when such flights will cease
to cause newspaper mention. AS the
machines require no light visible
from below and can travel in the dark
their development would seem to pro-
-ide unusual facilities for the SNUG
gIer. Articles of size and weight
would not be available, but the small
and costly things, such as diamonds
and other jewels, and certain drugs,
etc, offer a cargo of great value
which can be carried in hand satchels.

Objection to the Lords.

The great objection to the Lords,
is not that they occasionally reject
Liberal measures, but that they never
reject Conservative measures; not
that they do one half of their work
too thoroughly, but that they do not
do the other half at all. To this 1t
may, of course, be answered that the
bills brought forward by Conserva-
tive government are in general so
reasonable, so little revolutionary,
and so much in harmony with popu-
lar wishes, as to make rejection or
amendment unnecessary. But the
plea will hardly bear the test of fact.
The Education bill of 1902, and the
Licensing bill of 1904, were both of
them measures that were vehemently
resented by a majority of the British
people. They were precisely the kind
of measures that a strong and impair
tial Second Chamber, free from party
subserviency and taking the broad,
national point of view, would have
rejected. The Lords, however, not
only passed them, but strengthened
some of their most obnoxious fea-
tures.-Sydney Brooks, in the Allan
tic

HANDLING A TIGER.

elm a cage near the room in which
] lived while in Khiva," says Mr..
Langdon Warner in the Century Mag
azine, was a tiger from the OXus
swamps. He had taken a dislike to
me, and every time / passed his cage
he got up and paced angrily toward
he, snarling.
Into the cage of this beast, at the
command of the prince, Turcoman
stepped, armed with a short stick as
big round as his wrist. With this
stick he struck the tigers nose as he
made for him, and then, with the
palms out and eyes fixed, he walked
slowly up to the shrinking beast and
stocked his face and flank.
THE tiger snarled and took the
mans hand in his open mouth.
held my breath and looked for the
bleeding stump to fall away. But
keeping that hand perfectly still, with
the other he tickled the tigers joWl
and scratched his ear, till with yawn
and a pleased snarl the big cat rolled
over on his back to have his belly
scratched.
The man then sank to his knees,
always keeping his hands i'll motion
over the glossy fur, and with his foot
drew toward him a collar attached
to a chain. This he snapped round
the beasts neck and, rising to his
feet, laid hold of the chain and
dragged the tiger out.
This was only the second time
that the cage he'd been entered. AS
soon as the tiger was outside he es-
pied the watching party and started
for them, but came up short on the
collar. If he had chosen to use his
weight and strength no four of them
could have held his tether, but as it
was, the Turcoman found little diff

Abou Ben Adhem was nothing If
not practical. Perceiving that his
tribe wasn't likely, under modern
social conditions, to increase much,
he turned his whole attention to his
bank account, with the result that in
a relatively few years he could draw
his check for anything up to fifty
millions, and have it certified.
His manners meanwhile became,
of course, those of a rhinoceros.

HARD TO PLEASE: A FABLE.

A heron stood one day by the riv-
er's edge, as still and silent as though
made of stone. With his coiled neck
and piercing, bright eye he waited for
the unwary fish to come within reach
of his beak, which was perfect fish
spear. The prospects of bounteous
day were unusually promising. Soon
he espied perch playing around him
within easy reach. The heron be-
came choicely at once and said to
himself: "It does not suit my pleas
ure to begin my meal now; the perch
can wait until it suits me to snap him
up" The perch finally swan away,
and after a while plump carp gllded
around the heron's feet, who stiffened
a bit more proudly and scarcely took
notice of this large, delicious morsel.
Il am not ready, and the carp must
await my good and leisure time like
the perch" decided the heron.
Then a bright, fat, speckled trout
showed his shiny sides around the
heron, finally laying at rest at the
heron's feet "You must await my
pleasure like the others" declared
the heron, and he spurned the trout,
with his foot kicking him out of the
water with a great splash.
At last the heron decided that he
was now hungry and it would please
him to begin his banquet at once, but
never a fish came near him that day,
not even a minnow, and all he could
find was a small, Shiny snail.
Those hard to please miss many
good things. philadelphia Record.

And poverty's crime. Dispute it? Try!
