H HER POINT OF VIEW S THESE plumber men, and tinner men, anil nil other Individuals who bo to-and-fro upon tho earth, carrying flondlsh little fiery furnaces, continue to lio a menace to the com munity. There should be Botne regu lations dcflntnK their privileged, and one of the restrictions should Include) laughter nt defenceless vromen who are dally scared to the verge of lunacy by tho carelessness of such artisans. It wasn't so vory long ago that they burned up a handsome drug store. At least three fires, more or less serloua In nature, have been caused by tho overturning or the natural mallgnanco of their Implements of destruction. It was only last February that ono of these Irresponslbla persons went blithely off to his midday lunch, leav ing hla furnace apparatus blazing nway on the roof of a portico. The wind was blowing a gale and tho usual consequences would have ensued had not tho lady of the house arrived about that time and, entering an up per room, found scraps of charred ma terial lloatlng In through the window. She hastily summoned help and with great dllllculty the names were quenched, after doing considerable damage to tho outer portion of tho residence. The only consoling feature of the nffalr was that the workman had hung his overcoat conveniently near the gasoline stove-thing, 4and It was entirely consumed. Ho was dis posed to lament his loss upon his return, ns he ruefully surveyed tho fragments of his garment Hying nbout the air, but he received such email sympathy from tho Irate house mis tress that his munnurlngs subsided. The other day the same outfit, or nnother with the same proclivities, were similarly situated, only higher on the roof of a house on the hill. Thoy managed to set the gable on lire and ths wood was blazing merrily. Interest In the situation was enhanced by the spectacle of the women of the household walking like cats on the extremely sloping roof of the veranda nnd handing up pitchers of water to the men who were doing some lively work In the tearing up tha burning wood. After the blazo had Bubslded one of the workmen remarked nonchal antly: "I only upset the- fire-pot," as If that feat were the most rtasonable In the world, and the othrrs laughed contentedly; nnd the breathless wo men, who about that time were In a state of semi-nervous collapse, said things about him and his lire-pot. . Cemeteries are not cheerful places, no matter how the sun may shine on the fair green turf, how beautiful may be the trees or how the stream may sparkle beyond the cool brown shad ows. The deftest blending of art and nature, the noblest monuments, tho singing of birds, the love and warmth and light with which you may be per sonally surrounded cannot dispel tho unwelcome chill even on the sunniest day, cannot lift entirely the sense of depression which envelopes the mind. Perhaps you have been sorrowing at a certain grave where everything Is burled save memory and the power to suffer. The most entrancing spot on earth would not then b cheerful or pleasant to your gazo. Perhaps now, with the softening lichens of years over thei stones of an earlier grief you have no graves near which you bow In deepest aflllctlon; but perhaps, too, there may bo one at home whose steps each day make a shorter round, whose eyes follow you with a mute questioning, whoso whitening lips nnd ever Increasing weakness torture you with dread and anticipated agony. If you wander to the cemetery In these days of frantic waiting for what you wish to shut out from your life and experience, your distress ls Increased and the beauty and quiet of the silent city have no appeal to you except that of gloom and misery. Perhaps, though, you havo never suffered the loss of dear friends. Pos sibly life has been ho bright, so peace ful, so perfect that almost nothing can dim your happiness, yet, walking among the graves, a strange feeling of kinship tugs at your heart and you are sad, not for grief you have not known, not so much from dread of what may come to your dear ones, not from the premonition of personal dissolution, but from the Inexplicable sense of the futility of the things men call desirable and great; of ths puny ambitions, thw s Juggle for su premacyand the Inevitable end of all "the quiet haven of death." No wonder that on the days when you visit tho cemetery you go home to find yourself unable to enter with zest into the pursuits or pleasures which Interested you on tho day b- foro, ... I know' ono whoso heart forever kneels at the door of a tomb, behind which ls locked that of all her bleis lngs which was most blest. They hnv planned diversions for her mind, they have taken her to distant lands to district her thoughts from her grief, but she never went so far that grief did not walk silently In every footstep and leave a black shadow on tho fairest scene toward which they dlrrcted her gaze. You may say she ls morbidly sad, that she should arouse herself from tho contemplation of her sufferings were you over separated ,from some one for whom your heart longed for at every throb, for tho "cA Perfect Food" "Treseftes Health" ' 'Prolongs Lift " BAKER': I BREAKFAST COCOA "Known the world over. . . .

Itlght appropriate Is tho programme selected by the Scranton Symphony orchestra for Ita con cluding concert of the season at the Lyceum neit Monday erentng. It exhales the fragrance of the perfect spring! It clarifies Into music the Inex pressible emotions that fill the eoul during the period of nature's regeneration, llayden's Fourth Symphony, Nlcolal's orcrture to "Tho Uerrr Wires of Windsor," (Irleg'a "Spring," "Seren ade" and Frani Schuberfa "March Ullitairi" comprehend all the moods of gaycty, all tho phases of a Joyous rpring. Haydn's Symphony, No. 4, Is characteristic of that master. It has his awing, his dtsh and, withal, his Inimitable courtliness. As compared with the Ilecthoren Symphony, No. 8, In which the Symphony orchestra was recently heard. It is light airy and more generally pleasing. The al legro movements teem with the heartiest Jests. Th. mlnuctto Is a model of graceful, delicate melody. The orcrture to 'The Merry Wire of Wind Bor" U rich In Shakespearean character. The composer ls close of mental kin to the dramatist. Ieeblo Indeed must be the Imagination that, hearing this, does not conjure up the generous figure's of the merry ultcs, the hips and inli haps of gentleman and clown, and, most of all. the Incomings and outgoings, the wheezy lore making and ridiculous tnlkadrcnturt of the mountainous Falttaff. To those who har. not heard Orleg at hU best, his composition "Spring," for strings only, will b. a rerelation. From seeming dissonance a concord of martejous harmony ls achtorcd. The wind of the forest, the rush of the brook, the laughter of the youth, the languor of th. body, the sighs of the soul are Immortally fixed In this beautiful work. To attain hla cITects. (Irleg has no bcwilderlngly massed the notes of thla tone poem that the members of the or chestra cannot trust to their can In some of the passages, but miut follow the ecoro not by note. llonaud'a serenade, for strings and two oboes, ls at once playful and tender. The pizzicato of the strings Is heard throughout the composition. At times Its tinkling, dancing rhythm ls Interrupted by the plalntlre song of the oboes. Of (Swllym Miles, the erenlng'a baritone solo ist, much has been raid In praise by the prcs of the country. He will sing "Oh Erening Star," from Wagner's "Tannhauser," and an aria from Oounod's "Faust." So good authority as the Iloston Olobe makes ihe following comment: "Of Mr. Miles, who sang at the first concert of this seaaon and who on that occasion left so favorable Impression as to be not noon forgotten, It Is only necessary to say that In all respects he maintained the high standard which he had prerlously eet, his magnificent rich voice and splendid method combining csslly to make htm one of the best concert baritones of the present tlma."
