NO-s 4 Il L..
Now that all things are mine
That build my happiness.
The suns impassiOned shine.
THE autumn's eaudy dress,
And / may walk abroad
Like the four winds. as free,
Where Nature spreads her hoard
OF boom and field and tree
While all her sounds now set
Ny heart with love aflre.
And in my soul besct
The semblance OF a choir,
That futt,r Of. a wing.
Amid the waning hedge,
That rustling. furry thing.
Seeking the swampy sedge,
The strange, hoarsc, hostile CRY
OF crows above the hea1i.
Where the tall pines defy
The coming Of winters breath;
Since l have drawn two days
From that hard treasurer,
Old Time of miser ways,
LIES crooked Insurer,
To squsnder as I viii.
Having no other task
But all these hours TO sn;ll
Like wine cut o. a flask,
seek for nothing more.
l covet no mans mower:
The merchants monev-store
Could not enhance my dover
But in felicity.
My heart coes forth to those
Who sail n stormy sen
And share not my rencse.
Those who by fate are cI-sed.
And are distr"ucht u rood.
Whose 10Y is all dispersed.
Who hear 2 heavy rood.

KILLS IN SHADOW OF CAPITOL
Motorist Deliberately Shoots Man
Through Head and Drives Away
Mo Argument

Washington, Jan. 24.-Detectives
are searching the city for a man in an
automobile who deliberately shot and
killed Frederick Schnurr on brightly
lighted street near the capitol
The motorist halted his machine.
called on Schnurr to stop, walked over
to the sidewalk, put a pistol to
Schnurr's head and pulled the trigger.
No talk or argument passed be-
tween the two men. There was no
cutlery. When Schnurr crumpled up
on the pavement the murderer calmly
placed the pistol in his pocket, walked
to his machine and drove away
The killing was witnessed by Mrs.
Henry Schildroth, who became hys-
terical and rushed into the street. It
was several minutes before friends
were able TO convince her the slain
man was not her brother.

THE GREAT SECRET.

MahaIia Marshall had become very
diSc0ntented and for some time she
had longed for riches and luxury and
everything that was new and expensive
and fine.
So the Fairy Wondrous Secrets had
taken her to the place where all the
surprise packages and secrets were
wrapped up. Mahalia had asked to
be allowed to stay with the beautiful
ladies who lived near where the Fairy
Wondrous Secrets did her fine work.
And the Fairy Wondrous Secrets had
told Mahaiia she could stay with them.
But after she had been there for
quite while, so It seemed to Ma
haIia, she asked the Fairy Wondrous
Secrets to let her 90 back home again.
Here" said the Fairy Wondrous
Secrets, you have had everything You
longed for. But you have found that
you did have some things before. Do
you remember You told me that You
had nothing? Nothing? And that
you We're scoldedY'
"Only once in a great while,' cried
Mahaia. Il was loved and kissed and
Rugged! They cared for me, all Of
them.
"No one cares for me here. Oh I
want to 90 back. | didn't know I
had so much, so much"
The Fairy Wondrous Secrets bent
down very low and whispered into
Mahalia's right ear:
Little Mahalia," she said, you
aren't the only one who can't see what
riches you have until they are taken
away from you. You've the riches Of
a home and happiness and family
to love you-worth all the walking
dolls and talking dolls and fine clothes
in the world.
"Will you take me back-on your
back-just as we Gamer
eyes, / will take you back" said
Fairy Wondrous Secrets.
"Will my family let me come? Oh,
yes, l know they will. But oh, how
ashamed III be to think that l ever
left them?"
"Ah, they do not think you've left
them"
Haven't they missed me?" asked
Mahalia.
"Only one night has passed." said
the Fairy Wondrous Secrets. "You

QUALITY, NOT SIZE, COUNTS
Mans Mental Superiority Not Due t.
the Relative Size OF His
Brain.

Elephants and whales are said to
surpass human beings in the weight
of their brains. But, compared with
the weight Of the whole body, there
are not many animals which can beat
man--in fact, it may surprise the
reader to know that there are AMI
mails existing which rank ahead Of hu-
manipulating, Of course, the weight
Of the brain as against that OF the
whole body.
Many kinds of monkeys, certain
! members Of the squirrel family, and a
few of the mouse species, all being
! small animals, surpass man In brains
| so we are told. Any animal, however,
which is larger than man, has no
brain which is relatively as large as
his.
It would appear that mans mental
superiority is due rather to the quaL
fly and organization Of his brain than
to the size, says London Answers
writer.
The usual weight Of mans brain y
said to be 49h ounces, as against a
woman's A ounces.
A small head is no criterion as to
the brains Of person; 1t depends
upon the cerebral convolutions as to
ones brain power. Indeed, 1t Is said
that the large brains do not always de-
note great mental capacity.
| Many celebrated men in the past
have possessed brains weighing less
than the average 49h ounces OF man
Kind generally.
A brain Weighing over 90 ounces
said to have been the heaviest known
was the possession Of q man who
never earned more than 40 shilllngs 9
week during the whole Of his lifetime
! Another man who never earned large
sum was said to have q record brain
fof weight, so that size and weight are
nothing to 60 by!
Fishes brains weigh q S,8SSth par
0f their whole bodies.
