And watch and wait. And watch and waltl If yon open the gate bo one will know; The guard will neTer guess. Ton must open it gently, slowly so. No one has heard, unless Those dreamful birds, or the dreamland sheep, Tlenrd you stealing through their land of sleep While I stood by the gate. To watch and wait. And watch and wait! Oh, strange are the birds and the sheep thnt dwell Here in the land of dreams. But ym must not see, and you must no tell. However strange it seems. Or they'll never let you in agais. And it would not please yon, baby, then, Just to stand by the gate, And wntrh and wnit. And watch and wait! -TJtira Cli he. THE FORGEK. THEY were alone together, the old man and hi son, the one who had toiled for so many years, and the one who had spoiled his few years of manhood. "If you can't find 500 I will be ar rested for forgery. Now you know the worst, father." And the young nan endeavored to appear Indifferent, and failed to do so. "I've not ."( left." said John Calm gate Sr., "ami you know that, John." The young man laughed unmerrlly. "I understand," he said, "you mean tnat sooner than part with your money you would rather I went to prison, I don't blame you; perhaps I should do the same in your case. I thought I'd appeul to you before giving myself up, but of course you are not compelled to help me out of this scrape. I know that well enough." "You've had nil my money, my poor boy;" and the old man stood up nnd opened the oflice safe, and, ttilcing from it his banker's passbook, he band ed It to his son. The latter looked at It and threw it down Impatiently. "You wouldn't have shown this to me if your money was at the bank. Perhaps you do not quite understand my position. I have forged my fi-lcud's name to a bill. It becomes due to-morrow. I have seen the man who dis counted It, nnd tried to get the bill re newed. He won't do It, smells n rat. I fear, and If I don't take It up to-day it will be presented to-morrow, and I am ruined." "Will your friend help you if yon confess the truth and I pay him back little by little?" "I don't think so for a moment. I put a parallel case to him in order to feel the ground and ho said that he would have no mercy on a forger, even If it were bis own brother." "My poor boy, my poor boy, how could you have done It?" "It's no use discussing thaJtVther, It's done now. Possibly no one world believe me if I said that It was done in a moment of great pressure; that nt the time I believed that I should be absolutely certain to have the money to take up the bill long before it w is presented. I suppose all forgers tell that tale, and I am going to bear iny punishment without making excus.-s. Only I thought you would help me this once, for I have an offer to Join Frank Paston in Tort Elizabeth, nnd I would go there nt onee. It would be n new life for me, and I would try hard to make It a better one. Father" and t'te face was softened now, and the voice pleading "give me this chance. Re member me as I was to you when you first called me Into the world. In led. I will strive to deserve your love." The old man sat with his face hidden In bis hands, rocking quietly to and fro In his chair. "I will work to pay you back, father. I shall be out of the way of temptation In Africa, even if I was Inclined to for get this lesson. Tell me that my life l not to be wusted." Still the old man said nothing, but sat rocking to and fro, to and fro. "I know that at your time of life, father, 51 to may mean a great deal to you, but every penny shall be paid back." "Io you mean this, John?" And the senior looked up, the Hues on his face deepened and the gray of it mor pal lid. "Indeed I do. I ought to have come to you long ago, and told you this, but I hoped until almost the last moment that I could spare you the shame of knowing that I had dlsgraesd your nam." "If I managed this for you, bow soon could you start, John?" "Iu a week, father." "It Is not soon enough. It must be to night." "I will if I can." Old John Calrngate opened the Times and looked at the shipping advertise ments. "The I'nion Line has a steamer leav ing Southampton by to-morrow morn ing's tide. Go to their London office; If they haven't a berth left ask for this gentleman" and he gave the young man a card, on which he penciled a nan i iv-"tell him as a favor I beg him to And yon one, even If you have to mess with some of the crew." "Yes. father." "Now, I only want one promise from yon In return. You and I part forever. You must not seek to communicate with me in any way. More than this, you must cut yourself off from England for a time, and refuse to see even an English newspaper, or to receive a let ter from an English friend. You un jerstnnd that you are exiled." "Yes, sir," the voice was hard again "How much money have you?" "Just enough for a second-class pas sage; no more." Mr. Cnln.-g.ite brought a smaU box fropi the safe and took 5 from rt. "Take this, and now go, and keep your pro.nise." "Cooilhy, father, and thank yon. Think less hardly of me some day," nnd he offered his hand, but It was not seen, nnd the cray head was rocking between the wSMiered old bauds np-aln. Hid so the youi.g r::in went quietly out. It was twelve months later, and young John Calrngate was waiting to see the passengers In from the Cape steamer. The new life at Tort Ellza- jeth wan not altogether a pleaaaat eae, but be was prospering. The worst of it "was It wua deadly doll, and. tme to his promise, he would not look at an English newspaper. Then, M the few pnssengera landed, a Tolee hailed him by name. It was the first time ha had hrard It for many a day, for was John Dunkley. "John Calrngate, old fellow It was an old dob friend, whom bt bad last seen in London shortly before he left -Who would hare thought of teeing you bereT" called out the newcomer, and then as he stepped ashore ho aMook hands with the exile. "Of course I understand why yoo went and did not leave your addreoa," added Barton: "but none of the fellowi think worse of you for what happened. It wasn't your fault, old chap; one can't be responsible for one's relative You needn't bare left as you did." John Calrngate's eyes aaked for In formation, and there was a fear In them that was evident to the other man. "Good heavens! Calrngate, you don't mean to aay you don't know, and that I "Why do they say I went awayf asked Calrngate. "Well, old chop, your father, of course " What about him 7 Tell me at once." -I thought you knew, of course." "I know nothing. Tell me at once. "How could they have kept It from you?

At a recent "literary dinner" In Lonv don, Mr. I. Zangwill told s atory of a certain fat lady of bin acquaintance. Her corpulence had so grown upon her that she resolved to consult a physician about It. Bhe had had no previous ex- oerlence with "banting" of any sort. The doctor drew up a careful dietary for her. Bhe must eat dry toast, plain boiled beef, and a few other tilings of the same lean sort, at,! In a month re turn and report the result to the doctor. At the end of the time the lady came. and was so stout that she could hardly cet through the door. The doctor waa aghast. "Did you eat what I told youT" he asked. "Itellgiously." she answered. Ills brow wrinkled in perplexity. Sud denly be had a flash of inspiration. "Did vou eat anything else?" ho asked. "Whv. I ate ray ordinary meals." .Id the lady. An American Arctic City. A correspondent of the Spokane (Wash.) Spokesman-Review sends to that paper from Circle City, Alaska, an account of tliat singular town, which has grown up out of the rush of gold- miners to the Yukon River, and which derives Its name from the fact that It li within the Arctic circle. Perhaps no town, inhabited by civilized people, was ever built before In so remote and inac cessible a place, even Siberia. Its near est neighbor, aa a settlement. Is 240 miles away; this Is Forty-Mile City, an other American mining settlement Circle City is l.xu miles from apy place of consequence. To transport l"iei.;ht to or from the mines which cen ter at Circle City costs 40 cents a pound. However, at last accounts Circle City was "liooming." Real estate was rldlc- ulotudr high..

Engineers have hoiked for many rears on the problem of bridging large sldnl rivers. One solution already Id iperation Is the huge auseuslon bridge ver the East River, connecting New York and Brooklyn. But in this case ibe elevation above the water lino u mch aa to admit of the passage of vessels iCoat. retting bridges carrying the loftiest masts It la an expensive method of around the difficulty. Draw In such waters are generally rnoroann mvoltixo bbidob. objected to. Now a Liverpool inventor cornea to the front with a plan for a re- tmivinir bridge to connect the two shores of the Mersey. The plan. Is "in sular enough to merit discussion. P. F. Otto is the Liverpool engineer who has designed the proposed new structure. The base of his plan m a huge pedestal of solid masonry raised well above high-water mark and placed In the center of the stream. Erected on this pier Is the bridge ltaeif, consist ing of two gigantic steel arms, un tne extremes or shore ends of these arms are two-story rooms, the lower portion being used for vehicles and the uppet for passengers.

It was free-hand drawing, as the figure was not traced on the paper beforehand, This made the feat especially difficult, as "Tep" had to place every shot with reference to where Its predecessor bad gone and where all the following shots were to go. In other words, he had to have every detail of the "drawing" planned out and constantly in hit mind's eye whtlo be was shooting. One shot fired a fraction of an Inch wild would have spoiled the whole picture. Flying Machine. The subject of aerial navigation la oow so prominently before the public that reminiscences as to Its beginning may not bo out of order. The princi ple of the balloon was conceived by Albert of Saxony, as early aa the four teenth oentury, and auceesafnl balloons were made by a Portuguese Jesuit, Francesco Mendama. The first balloon ascensions were niade by the Montgol flera In 17A3. since which time balloon flights have become so common aa to attract little attention. The idea that a piece of mechanism could be devised which should navigate the air. Irre spective of the winds or currents, has long been entertained, and It la said that over 1,000 patents have been taken out in England and this country on fly ing machines. Most of them combine the balloon principle with a propelling power, the former for the purpose of sustaining the weight of the necessary machinery and of the operator. It la probably only a question of time when some of these devices will prove suc cessful, and, according, to common re port, several Inventors have already solved the problem. There must al ways, however, be a largo element of danger In navigating the atmosphere, and it is probable that even If flying machines become a success the most of the human race will be contented with terra Anna modes of travel. While we admire a girl wearing a white dress and blue -sash, the dresr and sash should be clean.

Ltttle BrMct la India. Have you all heard thai the little girls tn India are married when so young that they ought to be playing with dolls and learning to read I - It Is a sad state of things which makes this possible, but because the fathers and mothers have for many, many years sent their daughters away at this early age the fathers and moth ers of this day think they must do the same. I have a picture that shows a bride of the merchant caste, counted as "high caste." Her father is probably wealthy, and they have dressed her In beautiful And she has Jewels upon her arms and hands and neck. She alno has a beautiful Jewel on her forehead, per haps that Is the most precious of them all. And If we could see her little bare feet you could see toerlngs and tinkling ankle-bands upon them. All through the days of the wedding feast she displays these line things. Then she Is carried to her husband's home, and In the dark, secluded rooms la which women live she will pas the of her life. Many a little bride never sees the bright sky. flowers, trees and friends after she Is married. Have yon ever read about the "child widows" of In- ilat If this girl's husband should soon die his family would think she had brought evil to the house and caused his death. They would take from her all her pretty clothes and Jewels, end give her in return one coarse dress, rhey wonld make her do the hardest work and eat the poorest of food. A few years ago It was found that there were seventy-nine widows in In lie under 9 years of age.

Several things are very necessary if rae wishes to get food results la whit tling. First of all, he most have a knife with a rather small and very harp blame.

It Is true, does not hold Its vbrs se well. but. on the other hand, s much easier to keep In good condl lon. Every boy sLould learn to sharp en his knife, and should do It frequent y. It Is not necessary to grind the dge away upon a grindstone unless .he blade Is very dull Indeed; but It diould be carefully rubbed upon s vhetstone or oilstone, stven a smooth, Hat pebble of some slaty rock may be successfully used as a whetstone. In choosing a piece of wood for whlt dlng. several points are to be noted, n.. i, ant mrnnAm aro much nrettier than the soft kind, and If has a good stock of patience and Is content to make slow progress, they are to be pre ferred. Perhaps hUck-wnlnot Is the best of the hard woods. Its grain is usually straight, and. when perfectly dry. It Is not nearly so hard te eut as oak or maple. It to only the heart wood ef the black-walnut has the rich dark-brown color, and Is much used for furniture and cabinet-work. In the growing tree there Is an outer layer of sap-wood, as It ts called, which la quite as white as maple. This white layer In a good-sired tree may be an luch or even more In thickness, and is sharolv contrasted with the dark sharp blade. It Is not at all requisite black-walnut ts kept. It Is often pos sible to find boards or blocks which have both kinds of wood, in them, and, If they are used In carving, this natur al contrast In the color of the wood may be used to give very pretty effects; In deed, a sort of wood-cameo can be made from them, the white sap-wood being used for the figures, and the dark heart-wood below forming the back ground. This sort of work, however. Is more In the line of carving than whlttUng. and Is rather difficult for the beginner, especially as the sap-wood Is harder than the heart-wood. Of other hard woods the butternut and cherry may be mentioned as espe cially attractive to color and train Some kinds of wood, too, which are seldom used for lumber or cabinet work, but are stiU abundant enough In enr forests, especially in the Middle States, will repay a boy for experiment ing upon them. Thus the coffee-nut tree hss a very pretty brown wood with a fine grain. The osage-o range. so often cultivated for hedges, has a beautiful yellow wood, taking a high polish, but It ts so hard that It Is very difficult to use. The oaks and maples are also too tough and hard to work conveniently. Indeed, if a boy wishes to make rapid progress, he bad better be content, especially In his first ef forts, with the soft woods. These are pine, fir, and spruce; or, as the Germans call them, from the sbape of their leaves, the needle-woods. For our pur poses the best wood of all Is a straight grained piece of white pine, well dried, but free from the cracks so likely to come from a rapid seasoning. St Nicholas.

The doctor lias to send two or three women of this sort to asylums every month, and nothing Is known of the cases by the public. Good looking priests, members of Parliament who mr.ke good speeches In the chamber, authors and handsome actors, are nota ly marks for the attention of such wom en.

WASPS A8SIST IN A TRAGEDY. Caemar,. Death Scene Wan Acted with . Great Feeling. "One of the most comical experiences tn the history of the stage." said a local manager the other day to a Cleveland Leader man, "befell a company not, long ago In a northern New York J town. The company was playing 'Ju-1 llus Caesar- and at the last , was found that the property man had , Acted with failed to send up the regular throno chair used In the senate scene and an old rustic chair was hastily procured from the loft of the theater and after being covered with draping was press ed Into service. In the midst of the scene a large wasp's nest was discov ered attached to the chnlr and Its ln- habitants, becoming Indignant nt the disturbance they had suffered, began to swarm about the stage seeking re- venge upon tne Komans in xneir kmv necked and short-sleeved dresses.

"In the tent scene where Caesar ap pears to Brutus, one might almost have doubted Its being the true Caesar. It was the same In form and dress, but the face was no longer the same. In the Ust act Brutus bad one eye closed, Antony a swollen Hp, Casslus an en larged chin, Lucius an Inequality in the size of his hands and Octavlus Cae sar a nose that would have done ser vice as the famous nose of Bardolph In 'Henry IV.' "The tragedy came very near becom ing, a roaring eomeuy, when the lead ing man, as Casslus said: 'Antony, the posture of your Wows Is yet unknown, but for your words, they rob the n.vbla Bees and leave them honeyless, and Antony replied: 'Not stingless, too.' NO MORE lTAL SHIPMENTS. Converted Into Energy nt the Mlne'a Month. R has long been contended that It Is Cheaper to transform the energy of coal i Into electrical energy at the mine's j mouth and transmit It In that form to surrounding districts, say, within a ' twenty-mile radius, than to convey the coal an equal distance and there trans- j form ft into electrical energy. After years of discussion this project is now about to receive practical demonstra- j tlon by an English company known ns J the General Power Distribution Com- pany. it rs proposed to erect a central plant at Worksop, near Mansfield. Notts, adjoining the large collieries of that district, and supply the current to neighboring towns and villages within the radius above stated. This area embraces Sheffield, Notting ham, Lincoln, Gainsborough, Derby, Retford, 'Worksop, Mansfield, Newark, Rothcrham, Chesterfield and many in termediate villages. The main Wen Is to utilize the resources contained In the new coal field on the borders of Notts nnd Derby, where coal Is very cheap at he pit's mouth. The promoters, some of them mine owners, contend that If thpv nneceerf in t1iMr ohtwf -V, i problem In the large manufacturing towns will ne capable of quick solution, as the cheapness of the electric power will cause rt to supersede steam. If the plan should prove successful, nnd there Is no reason why It should not, it wlllhnve many Imitators and will solve a problem of universal Importance. One of the greatest dampers to a man's ambition Is the knowledge that the mantle of greatness Is usually woro as a shroud.

A novel scheme has been adopted In the public schools of Brussels. Some time ago the teachers requested tha children to collect and bring to school ueh apparently useless articles, found on the streets, as metallic bottle cap sules, tin foil, old paint tubes, and any refuse metals. In ten months the Joint collection represented about three tou weight. Out of the proceeds of this apparent rubbish five hundred children were completely clothed, and fifty sick ones sent to convalescent homes, while there was a balance which went to the sick poor. The scheme hits been so suc cessful that It Is being cdopted In other towns on the continent. Real lore Is like a bottle of soda wa tor; It should sizz and fuzz Just like there wasn't anything else on earth.
