TIMES GO BY TURNS.

The Topped tree in time may grow
 again, Most naked plants renew bott< fruit
 and flower; The sorest wight may find release of
 pain, The driest soul suck in some moisten- Times go by turns and chances change by course, From foul to fair. from better hap
 to worse. She draws her favors to the lowest Her time hath equal times to come
 and go, Her loom doth weave the fine and coarsest web; No joy so great but runneth to an end, No hap. so hard but may in fine
 amend. Not always fall of leaf nor ever spring No endless night yet not eternal day; The saddest birds a season find to sing The roughest storm a, calm may soon allay; Thus, with succeeding turns God
 tempereth all. That man may hope to rise. yet fear
 to fall. A chance may win thateb nischance
 was lost; The net that holds no great, takes
 little fish; In some things all, in all things none
 are crost, Few all they need. but none, have all
 they wishs Unmeddled joys here. to no man be-
 fall; Who least. hath some; who most, hath
 never au-

Lovely fairies were dancing around, and the Queen of Fairies was seated in a lovely lily. In front of her stood the months of the year. January and March was stubborn and saucy look ing. April, a pretty girl of 12, was covered with deWdrops, and May, who was even pretuer, wore daisy petals. June's dress was of gress blades, while July's was of red, white and blue flow CTS. August was in a bathing suit, and September had freck1es and red hair. October, with her long black hair and dress of autumn leaves, was handsome, and she was pulling along a bleak looking woman clad in dead leaves. This was November, and then came December. a little old man with long white hair and beard.
 Many elf1ns ran about with papers and pencils, but snatched them away before anybody could write on them Every one was shouting and yelling and making an awful racket until the Queen arose and said:
 After considering your votes I award the prize to December, because he gives the children the very best day in the year, Christmas And she placed 8 golden crown on his head.
 Those who were pleased clapped hands, but the others shouted, rsFNo! It's May. she brings my birthday!" And all seemed to want the month that brought their birthdays to get the prize
 December Gets Prize.
 The Queen waved her wand. and immediately there appeared tables la den with goodies-aH sorts of cakes and candies and ice cream--but be fore any one had time to touch a sim gle thing there came a crash and everything disappeared. felt myself falling and tried to catch the Sand man, but he was living away. AS I looked up I saw my mother bending over me
 Why, my dear.'' she said, you Lwere making an awful noise- You must have had a bad dream
 "Oh. no, mother" answered. ''I was in Fairyland and remember all about it."
 She smiled as if it wasn't true. But dream trips, I think, are very true, after all. Don't you?,

went first to one, then to another. Oh, even now I recall that day with an awful shudder At every church door I found<a girl alone. arrayed in bridal robes. My lover had courted them all; his promises were like glass, easily broken. He had actually made ar engagements to marry each one on the same date. To make a long story short, our parson ran away. The last we heard of him he was preaching goodness in Utah.
 'sIn my days said another of the group with a twinkle in the blue eyes beflind--her spectacles, q lived in a little village. Every man in the town declared he was teetotaler But Saturday nights. without fail, they all trarnped miles to town meetin', they did not return until late Monday morn ing, and, my, how their breatas did snnell of cloves and cardamon seeds. actually believe they would have drank the wells dry if they could. A man opened out shop there selling nothing but faSks, bottles and jugs. He got to be the richest man in town am inclined to laugh when I 1ooK back at those days and think what fools we sweethearts and wives were''
 Still another grandma who had kept abreast of the times, with marcelled hair, gown of latest cut. and high heeIed slippers, assured the group that the world was just as naughty when they were young as it is now. The boys and girls cheated a, great deal to exact pleasure from dull surroundings. But the young folks of today are open and above board. They say: t'Yes, we tangoed to our hearts content, into the wee sma' hours. What's life and youth to the young if they can't enjoy it? We coquette, and say things we don't mean. The boys just laugh and take it in good part. If a fellow jilts one of us for another girl, we don't spoil our eyes crying about it. We do just what the farmer did whose ccw kicked over and smashed a bucket 1 which was full of nlilk---he just look 1 ed for another bucket. We look for another beau. It's the same old world, 1 no naughtier now than ever.''

My nurse used to tell me that every night the fairies took me to fairyland, and I would ask, e'Bslt why don't they make me emernb er?'' And she would answer, efYou'M have to speak to the Sandman about it.''s
 So one night I determined to watch for him. Oh but it was a,wfuly hard ito keep awake. My eyes got so tight and scratehy. Once they closed. rubbed hard to get the sand out and when I opened them again there stood a great giant beside my bed
 ''Why,'s said he, you ought to be asleep. It's hours ago since I threw sand at you.'
 You're the Sandman, aren't you?'' I asked.
 ."oh that's what the children call me- he laughingly replied. My real name is Morpheus, and I look after children we'll because they need lots of sleep.''
 Sandman's Story.
 Well I want you to make me re- member about my trips to fairyland' VIII you2'' I asked.
 -"Of course, will. Come right alongi
 He had twinkhng gray eyes and very red cheeks. and was covered from top to toe with soft gray fur, which felt so nice when he tossed me over his, head and told me to hold tightly to his wings We flew right out of the window and went over hills and daIes, rivers and plains and mountains, and seas, and at last came to a beautiful country where all sorts 1 of flowers were growing. 1 We stopped before Mother Goose and her family.

BROWN UNIVERSITY.

The first president of Brown Univer- sity was Rev. James Manning. a Bap- tist clergyman, who was born 176 years ago today, Oct. 22, 173S. The famous Providence institution eele- brated this year it's 15o anniversary, as it was founded in 1764, at Warren, R. l., and originally bore the name of Rhode Island College. It's founders were Baptists of Philadelphia. In 1770 the college was removed to it's present site in Providence. By the close of the century the institution was on the verge of financial bank ruptey, and in 1903 the trustees, driv- en to desperation, offered to rename the college in honor of any person who would give it the sum of $5, ,O00. Nicholas Brown came forward with the needed amount, and afterward gave much more, and the institution was accordingly christened Brown University, after it's benefactor. Nich- olas Brown made contributions to. the university as long as he lived, and his son, John Carter. Brown. also became it's generous 'benefacter.e Under its l new name the institution flourished and has become one of the foremost educational influences Of America
