Philadelphia.-Stan in front OF
Independence hall, his hands resting
upon the table upon which the Declar

In each of these measures the pres

NATIONALIST ARMY GROWING.
Volunteers Estimated at From Eighty
Thousand to Quarter of Million,

Volunteers Estimated at From Eiahty
Thousand to Quarter of Million.
Dublin Estimates Of the number
of the Irish Nationalist volunteers
vary between $4,000. which is the DUP
lin Castle figure compiled by the DO
lice, and a quarter of million, which
IS the estimate given in platform
speeches. Careful inquiry shows that
there are $4,000 in Leinter, which takes
the lead; about $1,000 in Ulster tin
creasing rapidly, $4,000 in Munster
and $4,000 in Connaught.
The difficulty of exact estimate
arises from the fact that the move
ment is not organized from the CEN
ter. Forces have sprung up spontan-
eously in every parish, and so far are
only loosely connected with the pro-
visional central body. There has been
q complete wiping out of all class dis
tinctions, and the rank and file in
clude every grade-farmers laborers,
shop assistants, clerks, doctors, law
yers and country gentlemen. There Is
very strong leaven of time-expired
soldiers-old Connaught Rangers,
Dublin Fusiliers and Munster Fusn-
iers, and their experience is proving
useful in the drill.

"You must begin your swimming lessons" said daddy to Evelyn,
"and Jack will help you, for he really is a fine swimmer"
Jack looked very much pleased to heart mat Eor ne mao only learned o

smaller sister because she could swim.
This little girls sister had gone with another small friend OF hers to look

stockings and go in wadhng. This they did and enjoyed the cool watera and
standing o the slippery stones.
Nov, although this river wa very narrow and looked very shallow, there
were n or two places where there we're deep holes, and for that reason both
children had been forbidden to go in wading, but they thought it would be all
right just for once
"Alas, n of them, the sister of the little girl 1 am going to tell you about

Luckily her sister was with another friend in the field of Strawberries
When she heard her little sisters voice calling for help she went down the
bank in a jhy.
Quickly she jumped into the river and with two good long strokes reached
her little sister lust as she was about to go down for the third time.
"And back to the bank she swan with her. OF curse it was only a few
strokes work, but still she was able to swim, and s 10 she saved her little SIS

the household when the family Is all

the household cat, too.
Who's to blame, in such instances,
when the dog, driven insane by thirst

amuck and terrifes the neighborhood,

THE HOUSE

A naked house, a naked moor,
A shivering pool before the door,
A garden bare of flowers and fruit,
And pOplars at the garden foot;
Such is the place that l live in,
Bleak without and bare within.
Yet shall your ragged moor receive
The incompatible pOmp Of eve,
And the cold glOries Of the dawn
Behind your shivering trees be drawn;
And when the wind from place to place
Doth the unmoored cloud-galleons
chase,
Your garden gloom and CLEAN again,
With leaping sun, with glancing rain.
Here shall the wizard moon ascend
The heavens, in he crimson end
Of days declining splendor; here
The army of the stars appear.
The neighbor hollows, dry or wet,
Spring shall with tender flowers beset;
And oft the morning muser see
Larks rising from the broomy lea,
And every fairy wheel and thread
Of cobweb ew-bediamonded
When daisies go. shall winter-time
Silver the simple grass with rhine;
And make frosts enchant the pool
And when s~noW-bright the moor ex-
pands,
How shall your children clap their
hands!
To make this earth our hermitage,
A cheerful and a changeful page,
Gods bright and intricate device
Of days and seasons doth suffice.
Robert Louis Stevenson.
