If you but knew the beauties behold
On every side, you would not grieve

But rather would your sorrow turn to
joy,
If you could these fair Heavily Wis

For death is but the passing of soul
Into a brighter and a loftier sphere,
Where life anew has only just begun
For every spirit blest that enters here
just like tired child at evenings
close,
! We gently fall asleep, but to wake
Into the life eternal; safe within
The everlasting arms which ne'er
forsake

Of mortal lives upon the earth are run,

FALCONRY AN ANCIENT SPORT
Amusement, Practiced In East, Can Be
Traced to Period That Antedates
Era Of Christianity.

FalConry, the art of training fall
cons and hawks to the chase. has been
traced back to a period before the
Christian era. 1t was practiced In the
East and also in Europe long before its
Introduction into England. The English
kings used to amuse themselves with
this sport, which was for long time
the leading amusement, such as base
ball is n America today.
Falconers use two kinds of birds
the long-Winged dark eyed falcons and
the short-Winged, yellOw-eyed hawks.
The former take their prey by rising
above it in the air and sWooping at 1t
from a considerable height and strik-
ing 1t to the ground the latter pur-
sue In & straight line, and overtaking
the object Of the chase by superior
speed, clutch 1t and bring it down.
The larger falcons are sent after
winged prey of all kinds, crows mag
pies, rocks herons and wild fowl. The
smaller falcons, such as the merlin
and hobby, are flown at larks; while
Of the short-winged hawks. the SPAR
row-hawk is flown at blackbirds and
thrusheS, partridses early in the sea
son, and quails, the goshawk taking
pheasants, partridges and wild fowl,
rabbits and hares.
With all birds Of prey the females
are invariably larger and more power
full than the males, and tho sexes are
consequently selected according to the
game they have to pursue.

DAMAGE DONE BY ICE STORM
Destruction of Trees is ineomparabIy
the Worst Part of the Whole
sale Devastation.

One Of the most distressing conSe-
quences of an ice storm is the ire
parable damage done to trees. The
telephone and telegraph poles can be
replaced Wires can be restrung.
Train and trolley schedules can be re-
stored. One and all these are mani.
mate things. But trees are living things
and can no more be restored without
a lapse of time than any other living
thing. 1t takes generation to grow
a fine tree, remarks a writer In this
Worcester Telegram. 1t takes a de-
cade to line a residential district
street with shade, a second decade for
that shade to increase and become an
asset to the neighborhood third de-
cade sees the trees which have grown
up with the children become, instead
Of subsidiary attraction, the princi-
pal one in the neighborhood.
Yet in a single night the careful
solicitude, the care and nurture Of
the trees is destroyed The great
limbs which residents have watched
grow for years, the towering tops
which twenty years before barely
the last ten years have given grateful
shade through the summer and au-
tumn are broken, split and sundered.
The thirty years have gone for
naught
Other ephemeral things, such as
telephone service. trolley schedules
and trains will resume their accus-
toned routine within q day or two
after the skies clear.
Only the shattered trunk of the
trees Qntinely cut down by the ice
will remain as a reminder
1t takes generation Of man to
grow a fine tree

ALWAYS SKELETON AT FEAST
Egyptian Me-ryrnakers Had Custom
Which Must Have Been Something
Of a Check on ReVeiry.

Accounts which have come down
of Egyptian banQuets indicate thar
among the wealthy people and those
Egyptiune who were lin society they
were very elaborate affairs with q
great variety of rich and highspiced
and high-priced food and many wines
wines rare and strong.
But no matter how jovial and hap
py and hilarious the feast a mummy
was there as a reminder Of death.
At the conclusion Of the most sub
stantfal part of the banquet and when
the wine began TO flow most freely,
an attendant, perhaps one of the wait
ers. would carry around coffin con-
tanning the image of a dead body
carved in wood, and as the Greek his
torian, Herodotus tells US, made as
like as possible in color and workman
ship, and in size generally about one
or two cubits in length" The bust
ness of the waiter was to show this
to each member Of the gay and Joy
Gus company and say, Look upon this,
then drink and enjoy yourself, for
when dead you will be like this"
Herodotus wrote about $500 years
ago that this practice they have at
all their drinking parties"

Seem Larger Near Horizon.

The United States naval observatory
says: The sun and moon seem larger
near the horizon because of an optical
illusion. The horizon appears to be
more distant than the zenith because
the eye, in looking toward the horizon,
rests upon many objects by the way.
The sun or moon near the horizon and
at the zenith is seen to be the same
object in both positions; but when
near the horizon, it seems larger
because the distance is apparently
greater, the mind unconsciously reason
ing that being so much farther away,
the sun or moon must be larger in
order to look the same.
The moon at the horizon is really
about 1000 miles more distant from
the observer than when nearly over
head: and its apparent diameter, as
measured by an astronomical in
strument, is actually less by about one
sixtieth"

In the higher animals, we can see
evidences of the possession of some
faculty similar to human memory,
which Is made use Of particularly By
animal trainers. It is obvious that
instinct alone would not enable theGa
animals to perform such feats, Willis
we cannot investigate the animal MIND
as we do the human mind, we caa
Judge Of its processes by the outward
signs and these point to the posses
sion Of what we may call animal mem
DRY. Some students of the subject
deny that animals have Imagination
and assert their memory Is only AZ
something the animal sees,
smells or hears, recalling group of
facts connected with II, and 1t being
impossible for 1t to recall this group

Easter Joy

We might have known in the winter
That spring would come again;
We might have known that the future
Would bring an end to pain
But oh, to be sure that the suffering
Is over and all made clear,
And to feel meath the blazing sunshine
That spring is really herel
We might have known through the
snowtime
That flowers were underneath;
We might have sensed the Eternal
Knows no such thing as death.
But, oh, the Joy of an Easter
After long winter drear,
And 10 feel by the souls awakening
That spring is really here
We might have known mid the dark
ness
That sorrow with joy is blent,
And that gIadness would end in the
morning
The night of our discomfort.
But, oh to forget the shadows;
To mock at urfaith and fear!
And to laugh like jubllant children,
Now spring is really here !

Gets Power Without Coal,

A large paper mill at Vargo, Sweden,
was recently rebuilt on the most i'm
proved lines. Formerly 10000 tons Of
coal were consumed annually, and the
problem Of maintaining this supply
was very serious one, but at the
present time no coal whatever is con-
Humed at the plant. The hoilerhouse
contains seven electric" boilers, each
at 5000 horsepower, and the current
nnters the boilers at pressure Of
10000 volts, without having to be
stepped down. Each Of the boilers Is
provided with three electrodes, and the
coupling arrangements are such that
steam generation can be regulated
within 5 per cent. 1t Is stated that
fun steam pressure can be raised in
from five to ten minutes after switch
ing on the current. and considerable
economy in attendance is obtained, ~
compared with coal firing.

The brides mother had her doubts
about the feasibility of letting Pickle,
the South Carolina cook, wait on the
door during the arrival Of wedding
guests. True, she made the best sweet
potato pies ever, but she knew so
little of formal northern customs. How
ever, there seemed no alternative.
Pickle ushered the guests quite solemn
ly and wordlessly in. However near
the last there came a family friend
who was a frequent visitor. On open
ing the door and seeing Of all the
throng the first familiar face, Pickle
broke into a loud paean Of welcome.

Sugar Once a Deiicacy.

We are apt to forget how short a
time it is since sugar was regarded
as a costly delicacy proper to be used
by the wealthy alone or as medicine.
In the early colonial days it sold at
about rs cents a pound, in the loaf,
and granulated sugar was unknown.
1t was with ths growth of the custom
of drinking coffee and tea that it be-
came food staple. When it wGs in
troduced to England in medieval times
it was as Indian salt" rare and
precious condiment although the art
Of boiling sugar was known in India
before the Seventh century, and in
Egypt much earlier. The Dutch
brought sugar to Manhattan, and
New York Gazette of 1880 carried
this advertisement: Public notice
Is hereby given that Nicholas Bayard,
of the City Of New York, has erected
a house for refining all sorts of sugar
and sugar candy, and has procured
from Europe an experienced artist in
that mystery. York Evening

Eroos in Rocks and Trees.

tonishing longevity of the popular
delusion to which even educated per-
sons at the present day give credence,
that living frogs, toads and other ami
mails are sometimes discovered in
Theoretically sealed cavities in tree
trunks and rocks.
A little reflection shows, from the
very nature of things, that such tales
are incredible, and that those who
vouch for them must be mistaken In

Capt. Shaw also touched strongly
upon the repeal of the excess profits
tax, saying The United States gov
erEment lost 100000, 900 annually as
a result of It, which was enough
money to have paid four times for
the soldier bonus. figuring the $780,
100000 to be paid yearly"
He also fiayed the republican party
for failing to give the soldiers a bo-
nus, saying that it was one of the
party's main campaign issues.
He concluded by saying that the
slogan of the democratic party was
Equal opportunity tor all and special
privileges for none"

outlined a number of reasons that he
thought to be significant that the
democrats would win in the coming
