PARADISE FOR THE POETS
World Surely Would BE Pleasant
Dwelling Place If All Sweet Sing
ers Were Endowed.

A contemporary suggests that poets
and poetry-be endowed.
Should such a great and holy reform
be established the stream OF poesy
will at last be undammed. The singer
will break his chains. The world may
finally slake its burning thirst in linn
pid pools of truth. The Tyre will be
heard In every town and hamlet. Men
will read poetry at meals, then impro-
wise 1t in their sleep. Newspapers and
magazines will TEEN with 1t. There
will be swarms of poets, like mosqui-
toes, catching inspiration from every
twig and leaf-and fat government
subsidies.
Nor Is this all. The poet will become
sort of public utility, like the fire
department. His job win be to kindle
fire. not extinguish 1t. He viii be
rushed to the scene of action in a mu-
nicipal auto, there fttingly to COM
memorate great deeds. A poet win be
available by night or day for all oc.
casions-public as well as private.
But how shall poet qualify? How
become officially endowed? By length
of servitude or quantity and quality of
product? What the remunera tor?
Shall we form poets zoo, each with
his own cage and yard and trough
All. here we become lost in a maze of
difficulties. Who will administer the
fund? Think how Parnassus might
be corrupted
Yet it's worth the experiment. Gay
ETY. will be all the worlds portion
when the poet. jealous of his monetary
grant, is found training his muse to
jump and bark at pleasure of poll
tics.-Toledo Blade.

ODD BELIEF ABOUT GEESE
Long Ago 1t Was Universally Thought
That They Originated From.
the Barnacle.

The popular sixteenth century be-
lief that geese originated from the
barnacle was not confined to the I'M
educated, but was shared even by nat
uralists. John Gerard, in his "Her-
ball Cor General Historic of Plantes"
(printed in London in 1870, In giving
a description of this marvel, says he
only tells what our eies have scene
and hands have touched" ION the
Pile of Foulders," he goes on to say,
"are founde certaine shells, wherein
is conteined a thing in forme like a
lace finely woven; one end whereof is
fastned unto the incide of the she'll !;
the other end is made fast unto a rude
mass, which in time commeth to the
shape of bird. In short space after
1t commeth to maturitie. and falleth
into the sea, where 1t gathereth feath-
ers and groweth to foule which the
people of Lancashire call by no other
name then a tree goose"
He goes on to testify to their album
dance by saying that the best of them
could be bought for three-pence, and
challenges the incredulous to 'repaire
unto me and / shall Statistic them by
the testimonie of good witnesses"
The Pile of Foulders is the small
island now known as Piel Island, near
Barrow-in-Furness.

PEST SPREAD BY MOSQUITO
ease That Has Long Been Prev
alent In the Tropics.

One of the most peculiar of all dis
eases is filariasis, common in the trop-
les. In the blood of persons suffer
ing from it there are found innumer-
able little worms that can be seen only
by the aid of a microscope. These
are present only at night in the blood
that is circulating. At about i've
o'clock in the afternoon they begin TO
appear in the blood, having been hid
den away in the body until this time.
and then they remain in the circular
ton until about midnight, when they
begin to diminish. BY eight or nine
o'clock in the morning they have all
disappeared, and search of the blood
under the microscope after this fails
to reveal any. They are now collected
In certain large blood vessels deep in
the body, especially In the lungs.
where they remain hidden until they
go out on their next nocturnal excur-
sion.
The parasite is conveyed to human
beings by the bite of certain kinds OF
mosquitoes. The mosquito bites and
takes from a man, or from some AMI
NAL, as the case may be, blood which
contains these small worms. In the
stomach OF the mosquito 1.-THE interme-
date host) the parasite goes through
certain definite changes or metamor-
phoses, which are just as necessary to
its complete life as are the different
phases in the lives of butterflies,
moths and great many insects. First
1t escapes from a skin or shell in
which it has existed. Then it bores
its way through the wall Of the mos
quito's stomach and travels forward
through the body until IL arrives at
the base Of the bin or proboscis.

To be worth moving up you must
keep up. There are thousands of things
in which you must keep up. It's not
enough to think we'll in terms of bust
ness. The average business man must
watch his habits. dress. speech, and
companionship. They are all sign
boards Of his standing. The man
above the average takes care Of every.
thing that advertises him and his busi-
ness. He can afford to let others ex-
plot the freakish and the startling. He
takes care that whatever he does or
wears tells of the man of judgment
and good taste. Call 1t waste time
IL you want to. A few years Of OBJ
servation will show the wisdom Of
his position. So the thing is to mem
tally and efficiently move up. The
visible transfer win come with the
bigger pay as soon as you are prepared
to handle the job.-Grit.

NEW ENGLAND PLAGUE SPOT
"Merrymount" a Resort for the WORLDS
Riffrsff, Until Wiped Out by
Captain Standish.

An interesting chapter on saThe
Tares'' in the New England Canaan
In Roland G. Usher's book, THE Pill
grims and Their History" pays spe-
cial attention to Merrymount, which
other writer's on New England have
always noticed at length, and which
gave Hawthorne material for a story.
Morton, who founded 1t, arrived in
Massachusetts only five years after the
Pilgrims had landed, and being a gem
tleman of ch0iceIy cultivated vices,
disliked the atmosphere of the place.
He was a sort of junior partner or
helper to one Captain Wollaston, who
had number Of indentured servants
with. him: Wollaston went to Virginia
and wrote Morton to bring on these
servants to the same place, where they
could be sold at. an advantageous fig
ure. But with an eye to the main
chance, Morton proposed that instead
the servants 20 with him into the
wilderness, and found a settlement
where they could be (under his loose
authority their own masters. They
did so. and this settlement of Merry
mount became a sort Of gambling-hell
and drunkard's resort for all the riff
ram of the region. Morton. captain Of
a crew OF desperate white sailors and
settlers. rogues, runaway servants, and
even dissolute Indian women, held
high sway for a time-till Captain
Standish appeared On the scene.
