WHAT THEY SAY.

Sometime, somewhere we have heard it said that the famous song birds of the stage use bird seed for breakfast food, now it would be in teresting to know the special brand used by the "Mikado" company.
 Without wishing to boost him in friends aver that he would have the least, Walter Janggens many made a great success in grand opera, if only his talents had been directed that way
 They say that T. J. Pennell has as much artistic temperament as Car uso, also he can sing too
 The excellence with which Theo dore Brown sings Japanese love songs leads one to believe that he is fond of rice, either as a food or powder anyway he says Yum Yum a lot
 Friends of his swear that Lawrence Erickson can sing as well by day light as he can in the dark Yes, in- decd ne's some ball player.
 T. is said that Osborne Williams. when a boy used to have frequent interviews with Father in the wood shed, which helped ill Gevelopin: the woa99rsul range and powerful sing ing tone of voice he now commands.
 They say that Gordon R. Shuck used to cry a lot when he was a youngster for fear he'd be bow leg ged, but his worst trouble now is that he sings in his sleep, he also sang in the Mikado.
 Jack Rounsefell thinks he'll be- come an actor, he says that it does not excite him a bit to have the au- dience applaud him.
 Street Commissioner Brindle looks fine when all dolled up, but says he feels worst
 Ralph Bartholomew was the chief mumblepeg player of the Mikado company. Oh, yes.

 Not that he cares in the least, but His Honor Mayor Henneghan wants to know who put the Mix in Mika- 1 do.

linger for a brief moment at the
dark portal of the tomb, like a beam
of holy l. 6 h the belief must
come-this can not be all there is
of day. Stricken human nature
cries out: There must be a dawn be-
yond this darkness and a never set
ting sun, while this short life is but
a morning star.
The cycles of time roll with the
procession of seasons. Spring is
bloom; Summer is growth; Autumn
is fruition; Winter is the shroud, and
beneath its cold, yet kindly fold,
live the germs of new life. Spring
comes again; growth natures, and
fruit is eternal. This is the religion
and lesson of nature, and the uni
versal example can not fail in re-
lation to man. Let us draw COM
fort and consolation from things
visible in this sad scene, and lift
our eyes to the inevitable Father of
all with renewed faith that we are
in His holy hands.
We can do nothing for the dead
We can only offer respect to our
brothers inanimate clay, and cherish
his memory in the abiding faith
that our tempory loss is his eternal
gain. In this belief let us commit
him with due reverence to the keep
ing of our God, who is supreme in
wisdom, infinite in love, and order
eth all things well"
