The Dream Ship.

Sister and have the grandest time
At night when we go to bed.
We keep as quiet as can be,
So never a word is said.
But we play that our bed is beautiful
boat.
And we sail to foreign shores.
Our ship is the finest vessel ahoat,
With never a need OF oars.
We visit strange lands. and we see strange
sights
Where kings and queens all dwell.
And they wear the loveliest clothes Of
gold.
And wonderful tales they tell.
Then we eat from dishes diamond bright
That fairy hands set out,
But back to our homes we swiftly sail
When We turn our boat about
And make for the spot where Dreamland
lies.
With its many more wonders II store,
And this is the place where we stop the
ship
To land on that beautiful shore.

Montenegrin Simplicity.

Nicholas /. of Montenegro is as sim
pie in his habits as was King Alfred Of
oaten cake memory. In the royal house
hold he is waited on at table by one Of
his daughters, while other members of
the family stretch out and help them
selves. The bread, it is said. is baked
by the queen. He urges the habit Of
saving upon his people and is himself
a depositor in a savings bank. The
king once demonstrated with a hotel
keeper who had bought himself a gold

Artificial Eqps.

DR.. Paul Walden, the famous
Russian chemist who is to be president
of the next international congress of
applied chemistry, declares that the
production Of artificial eggs will be the
next feat of chemistry. An egg is a
complex compound Of nitrogen, oxy-
gen, sulphur and hydrogen. Some of
the simpler combinations of these ele-
ments have already been made, and
there is steady progress toward the
goal where even such intricate sub
stances as that of the egg will be built
up chemically, he says. The nitrogen,
which is the main thing, will be taken
out of the air.
