Let poets sing of beauty, fame, In rounded rhyme or story; Let soldiers boast of war's flerce game,\ Of martial deeds and glory- For me-life has no greater prize Than gazing into Polly's eyes. Let scholars waste their cheerless lives With books so oid and dreary; The man who but for knowledge strives Of living soon grows weary; And-what's the use of being wise When I gaze Into Polly's eyes?

Oh ye olden, golden days, Oh the pebbled path that strays Where the yellow willow quivers by the river's winding ways; Oh the lazy, hazy stream Where the lilies arowse and dream, Their sunny hearts of honey in their burn- ished bowls of cream. Oh yo youthful, truthful times, Whan the world was wrapped in rhymes, And hllls and dells were silver bells that rang their rarest chimes; Oh still ye thrill me when I thwart the thoughts of men, And, just a boy, amid the joy of living, live again. -»Nixon Waterman, in L.

This novel proceeding was under the direction of Edward Schmid, of Washington. In the last six years there were 43,- 902 homicides in the United States-an annual average of 7,317. During 'the same period there were 723 legal execu- tions, and 1,118 lynchings. Walter D. Wellman, a San Francisco bookkeeper, has micceeded in writing 7,068 words on an ordinary postal card. The words comprised an extract from one of Victor Hugo's novels. FROM - FOREIGN SHORES. Parisian lovers of horseflesh devoured more than 30,000 horses last year. In 1894 the number was 21,227, in 1878 it was 10,000, and in 1872 5,034. There are 200 hippophageous butchers' shops in Paris. > no , M. Waddington's great collection of coins has been sold by his family to the 'French government for $100,000. He had intended to bequeath it to the state, but was prevented from doing so by heavy pecuniary losses. Only two cures in 111 years, with no break in the church services, is the record of the village of Vallon sur Gee in the department of the Sarthe, France. , Abbe Pineau held the place from 1785 to 1842, when Abbe Paris, who is still the parish priest, succeeded him. Although he still hopes to be elected as Alexandre Dumas' successor next fall, M. Emile Zola has cast an anchor to windward by formally announcing that he is a candidate for Jules Simon's seat, for which an election will, be held in February. R A tobacco-consuming race took place recently in the part of Lille known as the Pont du Lion d'Or. Fifty men started to smoke two ounces of scafer- lati each in clay pipes; they were also supplied with beer. The winner fin- ished his pipe and his beer in 13 min- utes. A good many of the contestants, experienced smokers, were made sick. AS THE WHEELS GO ROUND. There are only three proper drinks for cyclists-cold tea, milk and water. Bicycles now form no inconsidera- ble portion of the miscellaneous sup- plies forwarded to our. missionaries abroad. A new sort of egg race was recently tried with great success in Paris. Five eggs were seattered over a quarter- mile track, and the rider had to break them with his front wheel. 'The con- best caused no end of amusement. In London the scorcher gets his de- serts. One of the fast-riding, bend-over fellows knocked down a lady and se- verely injured her, and he is now doing six months' time in jail. The judge fa- cetiously remarked that he could keep up his exercise by running a treadmill. Baltimore proposes to license all wheelmen at one dollar per annum, and forbids the carrying of children on bicycles. Best of all, itis proposed that the license of all scorchers be for- feited, and that they shall not be per- mitted to ride on any terms for six months thereafter.

They were employed suceessfully in a recent raid in the Bois de Boulogne on the homeless persons who sleep there at night. Telephone wires seem to have an im- portant influence in preventing light- ning from striking, according to the in- vestigations of the German telegraph department. 'Three hundred and forty iowns with telephone systems and 560 ; towns without them were under ob-: servation.

THE FUNNY C¥YCuST. \Since I learned to ride a bicycle,\ said Willie Bill, \I have been thrown in contact with a great many people I, never met before.\ Always Short, a bank clerk, is ad- vised by his superior to ride a wheel. \Why?\ asks the clerk. - \Because it will teach you to keep your balance.\ \I thought Wibble was such a good rider, and here he goes and smashes his against a brewery wagon.\ \That wasn't awkwardness. It was a case of fascination.\-Indianapolis Journal. First Summer Girl-\Youlmnow that fellow I was engaged to last summer..

If grass stains in white goods are rubbed with aleohol before articles are put into soap and water the stains may be readily removed. Put a piece of horseradish root into each jar of pickles. 'The vinegar will retain its strength longer and the pickles will be less likely to become soft and mold. One of the most convenient things to be found in a kitchen is a set of tin measures with a small lip. They should measure from a gallon down to half a gill. They fit one inside the other, and so require very little space. ' The knife used for peeling a pineap- ple should not be used for slicing it, as the rinil contains an acid which is liable to cause a swollen mouth and sore lips. The Cubans use salt as an antidote f01; the i11 effects of the peel. : When swansdown becomes soiled it can be washed in the following way: Baste the strips on a piece of muslin and wash in warm water with white castile soap; then rinse and hang in the wind to dry. Rip the pieces from the muslin and rub them carefully between the fingers to soften the skin. Black and dark colored lawn and cambric shirt waists and dresses are best stiffened with gum arabic. If, however, starch is used it should be made very dark with indigo blue and the garment turned wrong side out when put into the starch. That will prevent the starch from showing plain- ly on the right side when the garment is ironed. COMING BOOKS. Kev. Washington Gladden is writing a book on \The Working Church and Its Pastor.\ . © The \Souvenirs de Jeunnesse\ of Ar- sene Houssaye are to be reissued. 'They cover the period from 1830 to 1850. A third edition of Maj. Sharp Hume's book, \The Courtships of Queen Eliza- beth,\ is about to apepar. A posthumous volume of Lord Leighton's addresses to the students of the Royal Academy is in an advanged state of preparation. A London publisher announces a new and full edition of Carlyle's works in 30 large octavo volumes. It is to be called the \centenary edition,\ and H. D. Traill is to edit it. Gilbert Parker's new novel, \The Pomp of the Lavilettes,\ is nearly ready. Mr. Parker has also completed the man- uscript of a new short serial to be called \Cumner's Son.\ Admirers of Gyp will remember hei \Les Gens Chics,\ with its curious col- ored illustrations by \Bob.\ A volume on similar lines, by the same author and illustrator, is about to appear under the title \Ohe! Les Dirigeantes!\: Mrs. Lynn Linton's \My Literary Life,\ which is to be published in vol- ume form in the autumn, is said to con- tain some startling revelations and much personal gorsip about literary characters who lived amid the \Sturm und Drang\ of the midcentury period. IN THE: STUDIO. A curious, old-{fashion military cari« cature recently appeared in an issue of Punch and the scandalized artists im- mediately wrote to explain that it had been drawn, accepted and paid for 25 years previous to the present day. 'The ovigin of the painted napkin was peculiar. When Murillo was at work in a Spanish convent he carelessly prom- ised one of the brothers to paint him a picture. He was often importuned to Go so, but made numerous excuses, the last being that he had no canvas hardy. 'Paint it on this,\ said the monk, spread- ing out a napkin. Murillo could do no less than comply, and as a result, in the gallery of Seville hangs \La Madonna de la Servilleta, the Madonna of the Napkin.\ No plans have yet been made for the disposal of the house of Lord Leighton in Holland Park road, London. The price of $75,000, at which it was valued, of course included the cost of the tiles lining the Arab hall, which alone cost $45,000. But the failure to dispose of the house is of little moment now that the contents have been sold for so much more than it was thought they would bring. The trustees of the will arenow able to fulfill Lord Leighton's requests in the matter of legacies. HAP AND MISHAP IN AMERICA. Sixteen white chickens and one blaes one hatched in one brood have been exhibited at Springfield, Mo. Squirrels as gets are so popular at Orlando, Tla., that a citizen is building a squirrel house for their accommoda- tion.

THINGS TO REMEMSER. ° A cloth wet with ice water and laid across the eyes is often a cure for the most aggravated cases of insomnia. Lamp wicks soaked in vinegar some 24 hours before being called into use will give a clearer flame and a steadier light than those not so treated.

BUFFALO, Sept. 2 -The 834 annual meeting of the United States Veterinary Medical association began in the hall of the Buffalo university. About 75 mem- bers were present. 'The business opened with the annual address of the president, W, Horace Hoskins of Philadelphia, after which committee reports were taken up and discussed until adjournment for lunch. 'Foday a discussion of tubercu- losis in its several phases will take place and it will probably lead up to a demand for more legislation on the subject. Interstate Commerce Decision.
