HAMLET's soLlLoouY.

rVO be or not to be, that is the ques-
ton
Whether tits nobler in the mind to
suffer
The sings and arrows of out
rageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of roubles
And by opposing end them.-To die, to
sleep;-
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache and the thousand natural
shocks
That flesh is heir to-'tis a contamination
Devoutly to be wished. To die,-to sleep
To sleep! perchance to dream:-aye, there's
the rub,
For in that sleep of death h dreams
may come
When we nave shuffied off this mortal
coil
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life,
For who would bear the whips and scorns
of time,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud mans
contumely,
The pangs of ~despised love. the laws de-
lay.
The insolence of Office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels
bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life.
But hat the dread of something after
death
That undiscovered country from whose
bourn
No traveller returns-puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills We
nave
Thar fly to others that we know not Of
Thus conscience does make towards OF
us all.
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied DER with the pale cast OF
thought,
And enterprises of great pith and mo
ment
With this regard their currents turr
awry
And lose the name of action.

Last spring a good many people
failed to have knowledge of Arbor day
because no proclamation was made by
the Governor as had been the custom.
The proclamation WIS not fsadr amt
will not be made this year because the
law now provides that in New Jersey
the first Friday In May in each year
shall be designated and observed as
Arbor day. The observance this year
will therefore be on May 9th, and the
State Forester urges that 1t be made an
occasion to emphasize the special needs
of this state with respect to its forests.
When Nebraska started Arbor day
back in the seventies, the school chill
dren planted trees and the older people
planted trees because the state had few
forests and the the trees were needed to
protect the homes against sun and
wind, to furnish lumber and firewood
and to ~civilize the newly established
communities. This was logical and
right, but New Jersey has never had
the same need. We once had too much
forest and still have quite enough, such
as 1t is. We need more shade trees of
course, and in some localities may well
have more forests, yet our chief aim
should be rather to improve what we
have than to strive for more. The state
Is fortunate i'll having a great area of
woodland on which are at once the
remnants and the germs of valuable
forests. The land that needs to be
planted is comparatively insignificant.
New JERSEYS problem is forest fires.
Year after year they ravage the woods,
destroy the young trees and impover-
ish the soil. These must be stopped or
all hope of better forests be given up.
That they can be stopped, or at least
controlled, is proved by the experience
of other nations. The task is no easy
one, for a whole, people must be educa-
ted and the habits of generations be
broken up, yet the record of the Forest
Commission for the past three years
shows a steady PROCESS. Let the
children be taught that every forest
fire, no matter how slight, is harmful
because it destroys the young trees and
because 1t robs the soil of the food, the
decaying leaves, twigs and bits of bark
upon which the old trees as well as the
young ones live. A fire set thought
lessly in a dry grass field may, often
does, run into the woods and do great
damage. Let all the people know that
in no way can forestry be so advanced
as by u%pholding and strengthening the
forest fire service which aims to stop
these burnings. The state has two
hundred firewardens, 1t needs more; it
has three hundred miles of wide fire
lines, il needs ten times BIS much; it
must have above all, the active support,
not merely the passive good will of
every man, woman and child. If
Arbor day shall give this it will have
accomplished as much for New Jersey
as it has for Nebraska, or can accom-
plish for any state.

No place else can charm the eye
With such bright and varied tints.

Bright hued berries daft the SHOWS,
Smiling winters frown away.

Music there for echo dwells,

Tinge the cloud wreaths In that sky.

Dear Sir: Mrs S q ASHES house in
Yorkville, S G, was painted Devoe 81
years ago and hadn't been painted
since; it is a handsome house and the
paint was in good condition when we
were there three years ago.
Do we therefore say that Devoe wears
81 years in South Carolina? No; IN the
sandy coast, where the sun is hot and
the flying sand cuts the bark off trees,
Devoe is the only paint that wears
more than year.
Localities differ; Devoe doesn't differ.
1t is the paint that takes least gallons
to cover a job and makes least cost and
wears longest how long depends on
sun wind sand etc.
Yours truly

THE PRINCE WlNKED.


And Miss Aleott Was at the Other End
of the Filtration.
1t seems an awful thing. but here is
the circumstance on record that Louisa
NJ. Alcott. the saluted author of Little
Women" once publicly fiirted with Ed
ward VII. The fact comes out in Mrs.
Belle Moses book, Louisa May Al
colt. Dreamer and Worker" There Is
a passage in the book which contains
Miss Alcott's personal account OF the
Incident. It refers to the time when
the late king. then Prince OF waFs.
made his famous visit TO this country.
81 went to Boston," Miss Alcott re-
lates. "and saw the Prince of Wales
trot over the common with his train at
review-a yellow haired laddie, very
like his mother Fanny w and I nod
ded and waved as he passed and he
openly winked his boyish eye at US,
for Fanny with her yellow curls and
wild waving looked rather rowdy, and
the poor little prince wanted some fun.
We laughed and thought that we had
been more distinguished by the saucy
wink than by stately bow. Boys are
always jolly-even princes"
By the way, this incident occurred
IN 1850, when the Prince of Wales was
nineteen years old and consequently
quite broth of a boy, and when Miss
Alcott-we blush to record it-was
twenty-eight.-New York Mall.

The hostess marked these signs OF
incipient boredom, which became more
plainly evident each day. and at last
ln despair she took counsel with one
of her guests, an Cd and experienced
