Just why so many people have all along con sidered It In the light of a trivial affair is dltllcult to determine. To be sure it Is almost Inconceivable to an Ameri can under thlrty-nve years of age that In this ndvanced day of civilization war can take place, especially with the most advanced nation in the universe as one of the combatents. Many of our people have felt that war couldn't hap pen, and that If nothing else Inter vened, some miracle of Divine Provi dence would arrest proceedings. There are those who have kept silent during these weeks of suspense, who have re membered the past with a thrill which held an anomaly of emotions In which patriotism and honor were mingled with a hint of the old inspired belief In the triumph of right over oppres sion. They have remembered the days when war was no joke; when from every Ilreslde came the sound of mourning or alarm for the llrst born son, or for the father or husband on a distant battlefield. To many who thus recall the wild excitement, the dread and the nights filled with desperate fear, war means something different from what It means to the young guardsman, or to the war orator, who has no Idea of personal peril, as his fighting will be done by long distance connection. There were two women yesterday who paused to read a Tribune bulletin and to whom war was no Joke. One of them was old and wrinkled and she wore rusty black which her pension could not avail to renew. She was all alono and there were big tears slip ping down the furrows of her cheeks and mingling with the chill April rain drops on her shabby cloak. "Ho went away one April morning," she was say ing in an undertone. "He had tears in his beautiful eyes, but behind them was the smile of youth and hope, and he cried brightly. Ml won't tuke more than a month at the outside to whip 'em, anil I'll be home before the baby has a chance to forget me." Hut there were thiee years, and then thirty years and he has not come home, and the baby forgot the proud young soldier fatlm. and now he. too, will go out I In his enthllslesm Into this war, and It j v be to me like the dav his fathtr left I me with my bnby on my arm." I The other face that grew whiter as the ominous messages Hashed before iter eyes, belonged to a fair young girl, whose brow heretofore no shadow had touched. She was silken ( lad, and hail just stepped down from a carriage at the curb. She sobbed softly beneath her veil, and remembering her distant lover that moment embarking for a hazard ous voyage, possibly his last, and that unon waves to be crimsoned with blood. She clasped her hands over her eyes and hastily tinned away from the throng. War is no joke as lulled in the peaceful dreams of the past quarter of a century nnd more we have al most grown to believe. For the end no man can see. SAUCY RI-2SS. Nubile riutlcry. "Mr. Sldds seems to have taken a gtcat liking to that young woman. ' "Yes." leplled Miss Cayenne. "She Is very clever. You obs-erve how dismally biild-huded Mr. Skidds Is." "Yes." "She criticised tho style In which he wears his hair. 'Washington Star. Til 1-2 LAUGH OF A CHILI). There's the laugh of the dawn In the waking east. And the laugh of the noonday sky; The laugh of the breeze, the delirious laugh Of the flame when the night. winds sigh. There's the laugh of the stars, and the meadow luook, Of the sea. and tho festal wine. The frivolous laugh, and tho wonderful laugh Of tho heart, at affection's shrine. There's the laugh or the rose at the Bet ing mcon, Whpn the night has linwn nwny. But the happiest IuukIi, tho Inolfablo laugh. Js the laugh of the child at play.

Nothing of life knew we; And what more sweet than with careless feet To wander in Arcady? Today lit a book forgotten I found a rose you hud kissed. Do you remember the moonlight? The path to the lover's tryst? And do you sometimes, I wonder. Think of the past and me And wish some day we could steal away And wander In ArcudyV Ah, no, 'tis 11 foolish fancy. The dream Is dreamed and over. And you have forgotten the dear, dead days When I was your loyal lover; For wo are two weary worldlings. Seldom fromo care set free, And never again can wo find the path That leads through Arcady, Detroit Free) Press, compound over all other remedies, es pecially ns a spring invlgorator .'nd blood purifier for every member of the family, from the youngest to the ild- est uld not be better illuttrnud than In the case of the Pren-livllle family of Woicester, Mass. It Is to be remembered that not one tenth of all the magnllicenl cities fairly due to Palne's celery compound ever get beyond the knowledge of the Im mediate famil ; that. In fuct, few pen. 1-K' have any appreciation of the num ber of families throughout the I'nited States where Palne's celery compound is kept constantly on hand, and Is be ing: taken, or bus been tak-n, jy nome of lis members. Palne's celeiy compound has already dene an enormous work. It has saved hvs. It has saved health.

Kxliileinting Llleet til tho Cool and Gtiiinless Ali-- otiduilitl I'.llect of Music in the Cavcini. John It. Procter, formerly stale geo logist of Kentucky, writes of "The Slammotli Cave nf Kentucky" for th March Century. Sir. Procter says: The entrance lo Mummoth cave Is reached bj descending a plctutei-q'.le pathway leading from the hotel dm 11 the hillside over jutting moss and fern covered limestone cliffs Into a b-uutl-ful glen extending from the top of the hill down to Green River, which Is 191 feet below the mouth of the cave, and about half a mile distant. If tins weather is waim, us we near the en trance we step Into a bracing, cool, pure air, welling up from the cave and flowing down the glen beneath tins stratum of the lighter and warmer air. 1 have stood at the entrance, and ex tending one hand Into 11 temperatuie of 90 degrees, while the other bund was extended Into a cool flowing liver of air with the temperature at about Co degrees. The air within the euve has a uniform temperature, summer and winter, of ,"4 degrees. The euve may be said to breathe twice a year In haling during the winter, und exhaling dining the summer. This breathing of the eue, and the purity of tho air and Its freedom from germs, are among the most Interesting problem to be studied. By what process tho air in the cave becomes sterilized re main to be determined. But our faithful negro guide hns counted the party, selected the -requisite number of lumps, and given the word, and we follow him In single Hie down the rude wtone steps Into the vestibule of the cave. Turning, we look up ut the beautiful effect or duy llght which we are leaving, and ad mire the delicate cascade falling from the overhanging arch at the entrance. Here our lamps are lighted, and we enter this silent, mysterious, change less abode or eternal night, where the heat of summer and the cold of win- ' ter. tho storms und thunders nf the ' outer world, never penetrate. A few bundled yards, and we feel the pecu- j liar sensutlon of emerging into e.- j pnudlng space. We catch only gllmp- s-ch of white limestone projecting out I of black shadows of tho far-away I walls and ceiling of an Immense almost circular room of about 70 feet high, which our guide proclaims the llotun- I dn. Wo note the peculiar musical effect of the human voice. Years nso It was my good fortune to hear a celebrated German musical society sing In this Kotundti. I went far away In one of the great avenues leading from here, blew out my light, and sat alone In the darkness and listened while .he grand anthems rolled and reverherntccw through the lofty corridors in majestic waves of melody. 1 could then appro, ciate the Inestimable privilege of the few who heard Jenny Llnd slug here, and who in the Slur Chamber hennl a member of her party render on his violin the prayer from "Der Fret schutss." When the Rotunda Is Illuminated we note the perfect clearness of the atmosphere, the freedom from dust particles of any kind; and we soon learn that nowhere in the cavo will even dust rise upon our shoos. Wo note also tho exhilarating effect of tho I'a;ne';i celery compound, the remedy that makes people well, Is within the reach of all. As frequently happens in the spring, the "iitlre family begins to feel "run down," and to suffer with the hardest disease in the world to diagnose the trouble they have when they say, "Doc tor. 1 don't feel well." Tho advice of hosts of competent physicians is to use Fame's celery compound, the one known spring lemedy that restores lost ner vous energy, creates on uppetile. puri fies the blood, and builds up tho strength of the entire system. Nervousness, headaches, thinness, pale fit-es and poor appetites among chil dren cothe from the same causes that prxluee rheumatism, neuralgia und de bility in older persons from poor blood and lnsutlleleiitlv nourished nerves. Palne's celery compound Is tbe Mrst, last und only remedy used In Intelli gent, piudeht honics, where pains is taken to get only tbe best In ko vital a matter. air upon the members of our party. It Is believed that the air has become oxygenated by chemical process: cet -talttly. from its purity nnd dryness, it enables one to undergo exercise for hours without a sense of fatigue. Here before us is evidence of tho wonderful dryness of the air. The saltpeter vats erected In 1812, nnd the timbers which have remained lie their present posi tion since then, show no evidences of decay. In these vuts the sultpeter was leached from the nitrous earth abounding la the upper und middle dry avenues, and used for the nuuiu factuie of gunpowder. The war of 1.S12 was fought, on the American side, wllh gunpowder made from saltpeter taken from caves, and Mammoth cue supplied the gi eater part. One won ders how, In the ubsence of germs and of decay, tile earth becomes charged with nitrogen. It has been claimed that lltiin acid In the atmosphere, combining with the limestone, forms liitrute of calcium, and the dlsliitH grated waste from the walls and cell ing yields the great supply of nitrogen abounding in the cave. It requires a day and a half to maJcn I the regulation journey through tha cave; one half a day to what Is known as the Short Route, and an entire day to the Long or River Route. But tliaC by no means exhausts the objects oC interest, and one may spend days lit visiting avenues and chambers anil domes not included In the rcgtUao routes.
