 TO THE MAN WHOSE WIPES OUT
 OF TOWN.
 "Of all the insidious
 Temptations invidious,
 Devised by the devil
 For pulling men down,
 There's none more delusive,
 Seductive. abusive,
 Than the snare to a man
 When his wife's out of town. He feels such delightfulness. Such stay out all nightfulness And sure to get tightfulness,
 I own it with pain;
 \ sort of bach rakishness,
 What will you takeishness,
 It's hard to explain.
 His wife may be beautiful, Tender and dutifuI,
 It is not her absence,
 That causes delight:
 But the curs'd opportunity,
 The baleful immunity.
 That scatters his scruples
 As day scatters night"
 
 struggle for social self-preserva- ton" is what this brilliant season at Newport signifies to C. w. De Lyon Nichols, the penetrating writer on American society. The old Romans of the so-called "aristocracy' are raising new and mighty walls against the in vasion of the parvenu Goths. Established families have rallied this summer as never before to keep up the bars, according to a recent in terview given the press by MT. Nj cholls.
 "IrfOrmality and the social sleight- of hand of doing unconventional things in a conventional way might seem to the casual onloOker to be the keynote of the present season, he said. But if you look beneath this superficial crust of frivOlity, you will discern that society. right through mid summer is transacting business of deadly earnest Americas 's haut monde is fighting.

SHOWING NEED OF POVERTY Writer Points Out How It's Banfsh- nent Would Affect Certain
 Classes of People.

Poverty has been designed by an All-Seeing Providence in order to make the rich humble. Without poverty, the rich would not know how well off they were, and if they did not know this, they would have no opportunity to sympathize with the poor; thus, no condition of hu- mility would be possible
 Poverty ie at~~-uaof1+ u mny other ways, 1t enables .ooloIos-sts to write books, and, by constant practice, gives them remarkable fa- cility; it affords a splendid field for the theologian, and helps him very much in his illustrations.
 Poverty helps government; for without government there would be no political parties, and political parties could not exist without pov- erty, as there would be no votes to buy.
 Poverty is necessary to produce sentiment. If there were no pov- erty, sentiment would go begging. It would then have to be expended ex- clusively on members of the oppe- site sex, as rule, they don't need it, except when they also need money.
 Poverty is considered unnecessary by some, but that is only because they do not understand. Without poverty there would be nothing to i've for, nobody to be sorry about, and no one to witness our comfort. Thomas l.. Mason, in Lippin- 'ott's Magazine.

CHANGING CAPITAL3-

Changes of capitals have occurred several times within living memory, but that Is not likely to afford much consolation to disestablished Cal- cutta. Perhaps the most notable in- stance Is that of British Columbia, whose original capital was New Westminster, so christened by Queen Victoria herself. But after some years New Westminster was found unsuitable and the metropolis was shifted to Victoria. Our crown col- ony of Fiji, in the south Pacific, has also changed its capital from Levuka to Suva- The first seat of government in Australia was Para matta, but the authorities soon shift ed to Sydney, although Paramatta for a long time remained the official residence of the viceroy.-London Chronicle.

OLD-TIME SUNDAY GOLF.

Golf appears to have given the seventeenth century Sabbath admin istrators of Scotland more trouble than any other form of frivolity. In the previous century the fascination of the game had Sunday license, but in the seventeenth the clubs were banned during the hours of divine worship. Here is typical entry from the registers of Perth in Janu- ary. 1904:
 "The visitors report that guid or- der was keeped the last Sabbath, ex. cept that they found some young boys playing at the gowf in the North Inch, in the time of preaching afternoon, who were warned then by the officiars to curnpear before the session this day" The half-dozen culprits escaped with fine of "nne merk" and a public exhibition ot themselves to the congregation.

Where did Chaucer and Shake speare get their plots3 A few were original, probably. But the others {? We'll, many are directly traceable to the ''Gesta Romanorum," which, as may be deduced from the title, was book written in the early days of the Roman empire. It means ''The Exploits of the Romans," and tells of the brave deeds and acts of the Romans There are about two h,ln- dred stories in the book, though most of them are weak in incident and dramatic power.

LAST OF THE PARIS LANTERNS.

A relic of the days of terror in the revolution, when the aristocrats were strung up to lanterns in the Paris streets, has disappeared Un- til few weeks ago the last of these old lanterns, which were pulled up and down on pulley to @ gallows- shaped iron rod, still hung opposite the Hotel de Lausanne on the Quai des Celestins Some necessary re- pairs to the quay made 1t imperative to pull down the wall, and the lan- tern has been sent to the Musee Carnavalet. It was the last oil lamp in the Paris streets, and until few weeks ago was filled and lighted ev- cry evening.

Acip-PRooF VESSELS.

New acid-proof vessels are cast of pure iron oxides. The latter have a high melting temperature and are practically indestructible. Pure iron oxide may be obtained by ''blowing" pure molten iron. Apparatus and containers made of this material may be manipulated like other metallic vessels. As compared with that of platinum or quartz vessels, the cost is low. They can also be used for drying and heating sub stances which would decompose metallic iron.
