The Headache Season.

Rugs on the line:
Bed clothes on view.
Getting the air
At a window or two;
Chairs on the porch;
Paint on the floor:
Wife has a headache
It's springtime once rnoro.
Mud on my shoes.
And soap on the stairs:
Pictures and books
Piled in all of the chairu:
Fed in the kitchen,
And every one sore:
Wife has a headache
It's springtime once mora
Cropping to bed
Through a furniture masA
Obstacles blocking
. Familiar ways.
Suddenly meeting
A wide open door;
Wife has a headache
It's springtime once moro.
Hustled from home
At the break Of the day,
And secretly glad
To get out OF the way:
HomewaId at night
And discovering then
That wife has a headache
It's springtime again!

The Introduction Of many new de-
partments has led to the adoption of
distinctions for them. Pharmacy is in
dicated by the russell band, dentistry
by the lilac, forestry by russet brown,
and so on through all the special grades
Of study. The colors Of the institution
shown in the hood are arranged in the
old principle Of the colors on shield.
Both in its ancient origin and in the
care which has been bestowed upon 1t
by modern educators the academic
gown is a worthy symbol Of the great
event 1t marks In the life Of the stu
dent.
FRoLIc AND FUN
But OF recent years another form OF
observing the close of the school year
has been adopted by students. Espe-
cially in the larger seats OF learning
frivolity has entered as a part OF the
commencement. Undergraduates and
former graduates usually are ringlead
ers In this sportmaking part Of the
ceremonies.
The principal feature Of up to date
commemncements Is the alumni-the
graduates Of other years-who return
to make merry and renew old assoc!a-
tions. Some OF these college "boys"
are gray bearded Srandfathers; others
nre youths Of twoScorc. All for the
time being throw Off the burden of their
years and their cares and become again
the riotous youngsters they We're in the
brave days when they We're twenty-one.
1t Is the stunts" these alumni do
that make the proceedings of COM
mencement picturesque, even exciting.
They can think of more quaint fool
cry in five minutes than the not yet
graduated can in their four years
course. The usual custom Is for n
class some years back to offer prize
and for all the other classes to COM
pete for 1t individually. AS rule.
classes more than fifteen years back
do not enter actively into these con-
tests, which are primarily horseplay
in grotesQue costumes. The older class
men originate the ideas and let the
younger ones do the work. Generally,
however. every class that has grad
uated in the previous fifteen years il
represented.
BLACK HAND RoLLlcKERs
At Columbia university last year a
class dressed as Cinnamon took the
prize-a silken banner. The chief mo-
gul sat on the throne that at dis
tance looked more gorgeous than that
Of the "son Of heaven who once ruled
the Celestial empire.
Another highly successful effort in
these joyful high tinks was class of
Black Handlers that made a hit in Co.
lumbia last year. These men were
made up to look rs villainous as posi-
Bile, and much of the big success OF
their hit was due to the three hand or
| gans that they hired for the occasion.
Princeton Is famous for getting up
particularly ingenious and frolicsome
parades.

T<HE young student who u get

gown in which on commence
ment day he will face his COL
lege president to receive the diploma
that entities him to practice his pro-
fesston; the sweet girl graduate, who,
having mastered the arts and many
other things, is primping herself for
the day Of valedictory. and NIL the 9TH
er graduates little dream of the his
torical significance Of the attire they
wear on their final school day.
Away back in the dim mists Of the
middle ages, long before any but the
most ancient Of surviving institutions
of learning had been established, must
the searcher wander to learn who orig
mated the commencement garb and to
ascertain its meaning.
In all ages man has found 1t conven-
tent to indicate rank and calling by
specialties in dress.
It was not until the coming Of mod
ern ideas, especially the upspringins
Of republican institutions. that the hab-
It of regarding clothing rs badge Of
station began to fall into disfavor. But
even till the present time certain forms
survive that perhaps nothing can ever
change. ...-

WINYERING IN IN
 CANADA BRUSH
VISITOR TELLS SOME THING OF THE ExTEkslvENEss OF ONE
 BIG RAILROAD LINE.
Enollshman When He First Heard of ThIs Big system Thought 1t Operated Everything on
 the Continent.

You can make q trip around the world by the Canadian Pacific railroad and it's affiliated lines,' said MT. w McWllliams, of Toronto, Can. civil engineer of that road, who is now nursing a two years growth of rheu. matism at the Majestic hotel.
 Four years ago MT. McWilliams with three companions made a survey for the Canadian Pacific road up in the White river country in northern Canada. The temperature all winter never got out of hailing distance of 60 degrees below zero, and the men lived in tent. One of these men is now waiting for dread tuberculosis to announce the day of his final leave taking from this world, and the other three are all suffering from the aw- ful experiences of that terrible wint- CT in the brush. '"
 Only a rugged constitution and a vi tality of uncommon abundance saved Mir. McWillams from succumbing to the rigors of that northern country. He has been under medical treat ment for two years up to this time, but the wonderful healing waters of the Valley of vapors has already giv- en him hope of permanent resoration to health within the next few mcnths
 Speaking of the ownership and con- trol of transportation facilities ac- qulred and maintained by the c, P R., MT. McWilams related that an Englishman came to Canada, and travelled from Quebec across country to Vancouver by this road. At each station where he left the tran wheT he asked what hotel had the best ac- commodations. he was told that the c. P R hotels were the best. And there Is c. P. R. hotel wherever one can find standing room. The Englishman was astonished at the notifications of the C. P. R. inter- ests, and began to think that the c F. R. was the general government oi
 Canada. At Vancouver. he asked foi
 the time. When the time given him
 differed from that he saw given by the
 town clocks, he asked to know the
 reason. He was told, with an air oi finality, that he had been given c P. R. time, He could only mumble in astonishment: rMore c. P. R. Say, does the C. P. R. run the Sun too?' A traveller can travel across Can ada by the C. P. Il. and stop at C. P. R. hotels all the day, if he stops over He can take a c. P. R. shin and cross the Pacific ocean. He can then get transportation by his ticket over c. P. R. affiliated lines. And when he has crossed Europe. he can cross the Atlantic on c. P. R boats.
 To an innocent bystander, it looks as if Canada was sort of continual right
 of way for the Canadian Pacific fail
 road.
