A Maniac's Poem.

Probably the mass of prison poetry
which has been written on stools and
bedposts and scratched on prison walls
far exceeds that which has found ex-
preston on paper. and many mute.
inglorious Milton" has begun and fin
ished his poetical career with these
"lost to sight" productions. There is
in existence short poem said to have
been scratched by maniac on the
wall Of his cell. which runs thus:
Could with ink the ocean fill.
Were all the world of parchment made
Were every reed on earth a quil
And every man a scribe by trade,
TO write the love of God alone
Would drain that ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky.
The authenticity of this being the
work Of maniac has often been Ques-
toned because of the beauty OF it's ex-
preston and it's sound reason. but the
story stands. London Saturday Re-

A Boy Once Himself.

The principal OF village school in
Kansas one afternoon detected a boy
cutting the letters Of his name in the
desk in front of him. AS the novels

intending to grasp the boy by the col.
lar. when 10. and also behold. close
by the newly formed letters were the
initials Of the principals own name
written by himself when he was a pu-
pill in the same school. His grasp
upon the boys collar loosened itself,
and he returned to his desk sadder
and wiser teacher. That principal is
today judge of an important court in
one of the greatest cities of the world.

physicians, who prescribed the drug,
at a meeting of druggists here to-
night to protest against the recently
enacted city ordinance prohibiting the
sale at retail of any preparation con-

upon a doctors prescription.
The ordinance is aimed primarily
at paregoric and at stomach remedies,

health who were instrumental in OBJ
tanning its passage. Caswen Mayo.
one of the druggists. said he had
made a canvass by mail of several

him 80 per cent. of the victims of
drugs formed the habit as a result of
using prescriptions given by physi-
clans and only per cent. from using
proprietary medicines.
