SAD CASE OF JACK SMITH.
Jack Smith was a clerk on a thousand a year
And his heart was as bright as the May;
Ills smart little wife made his humble boms
dear,
For she did her own housework with never
a fear
Of what other people might say.
Might say,
Of what foolish people might say.
Ills tastes being simple, his wants they
were few:
Contented and happy he dwelt;
llu dined on plain food and look exercise,
too, , i
Bo vigor and health and good nature be
knew.
And never it worry he felt,
He felt.
To shorten the girth of his belt. ,
Relng poor he could live as It suited him
beat
And dress Just for comfort nlone;
He could ride on a merry-go-round with a
zest,
Bpeak the truth and be honest because be
was bleat
With true Independence unknown,
Unknown
To those In a wealthier zone.
And thus he was happy until in awhlis
There fell to hint riches galore,
And then the poor fellow bloomed out In
the style
i And dwelt In a grand architectural pile
WIAB servunts on every floor,
Hoo-roor!
With bosses on every' floor.
J. Cumberland Smytho was our gentleman
now,
Esquire tacked onto his name;
And his ambitious wife she. was training
him now
To make his politest society bow
To further bat loftiest aim
That cams
From trying to "get In the game."
With nothing to do he grew puffy and stout.
And wine made him red In the face;
11..- dined on course dinners with nabobs
about,
His health and his nerves and good nature
gave out.
And he soon waa a pitiful caBe,
Full case,
For the doctors who thrived on his pace.
In garments of fashion he had to be bound
And walk with a dlgnllled tread;
To operas, balls and receptions around
Ills wife made him go if he didn't aha
found
Another to go In his stead,
111s stead.
When scandalous things might be said.
A valet he had who would fawn at his faca
And fun of him make ut his back.
His butler, bedecked with gold buttons and
lace.
Looked down on him so that he felt In his
place
Aa small aa the point of a tack,
A tack.
And worse than a man on the rack.
In his carriage with liveried driver In-fore
And a folded-armed tiger behind.
And his wife with a poodle he had to adore.
He rode in the park whlle admlrera, a score.
Would bow to his wife who Inclined
Inclined,
While ba was compelled to be blind.
I la spite of his money both ends wouldn't
meet.
For he had to ape wealthier geese.
i Bo worries and cares made hla troubles
complete;
To keep up tha styla he must practice de
celt.
Which robbed all his slumbers of peace.
Of peace,
I Till death seemed his only release.
One day In a restaurant sadly he went
I And asked as a privilege rare
That he, aa In days he had happily spent.
Could take oft his coat and In shirt sleeves
content
Sit down on a plain wooden chair,
Hard chair.
And feel Just aa free aa the air.
"And can't I," he asked, "aa a privilege
great,
nave corned beef and cabbage to eat
With plenty of mustard and all on one
plate
Tou'l! pardon my tears for, alas, I must
state
It's years since Fve known such a treat,
A treat,
It's years since I've known such a treat."

I A MAID and MOUSETRAP
By Pauline Freeman
TO
I
T oertatinly seems to ma us if some
power wutched OV8I the tlusUultis
of yuuntf ifirls and puunlcd thetn w lieu
they're gyotl," the olU buchelor suld. lie
ought to know, 1 thought, huving him
self been a sort of honorary uncle und
guide to na niuny as a dozen young girls
in his time, all of whom were happily
married, lie wuh u philanthropie sort
of a middle-aged man, with a very
large experienoe of tho world and its
ways.
"Why, I've known coses where things
came right just when the girl herself
thought they -were going hopelessly
wrong," he continued, seeing that we
were all listening to him and ready for
more. "Now there was that case in Flor
ida with my dear young friend Ethel
llerry. It looked like a very sad cose at
one time, but it proved to be all for the
best,
"So, I don't mind telling you about
it. You, none of you, know who Ethel
lierry is. And, in any case, the thing
never was n secret.
"Well, of course, you know that all
women are afraid of mice. I would al
most be inclined to suspect a woman
that was not afraid of mice, for my own
part I should regard her as something
uncanny 'fit for treasons, stratagems
and spoils' something not properly
womanly. But Ethel's feelings about
mice waa really quite beyond the or
dinary. On every other subject she
waa as Bound as a bell. You couldu't
frighten her with a gun. She could
shoot pretty well and had actually killed
several deer out in the woods. About
snakes she felt pretty much the same
horror that most people feel who have
not been used to them from childhood.
She was not by any means a nervous
or a fainting woman. But, somehow,
she oould not stand mice; I have even
seen her jump away from a little woolen
penwiper, because there was a figure of
a mouse on it, with beads for eyes and
she knew perfectly well that it was not
a real mouse, too.
"When Ethel's mother took her to
Florida she made the acquaintance of
a young Englishman there who wot"
ftipposed to be engaged in the orange
frowlnf business, and also saippuatid to
' 7e w 'tT'i:
be doing very well at It. Personally, ha
was liked by everybody, not because
his elder brother was said to be a lord,
but just for his own sake. He was a
gay, free-and-easy sort of youngster, so
ciable, a good banjo player, always
ready for a bit of fun, and nobody had
a word to sn.v against his character.
Ethel and her mother had been in Flor
Idn nearly all winter, and they had seen
much of this young man nil the time,
and the conseq uenee was that the young
man had told Mrs. Berry that he In
tended to marry her (laughter. Mrs.
Berry Raid that must be as her daughter
chose to decide. Finally, so far ns any
one could judge. ICthel herself was In
clined to favor the young man.
"That wna where the mice came In.
The cottage Which the Uerrys had rent
ed for the winter was a very fnirly built
sort of affair, not at all old, and not
troubled with such thingsnsmiee. They
had lived there from November to the
end of February without ever having
been obliged to think of mice. But in
February Ethel heard strange sounds
by night In her bedroom.
" 'Mother,' she said, 'I heard mice tu
my room lest night, and vou know as
well as I do that so long as there is any
I chance of n mouse being anywhere
about that room I can't sleep in It.'
Mrs. lierry knew perfectly well that
this was no exaggeration. The girl had
not slept more than one hour all the
previous night, and that would not do.
They rigged a grass hammock for her
In her mother's room she could sleep
ail right In a hammock and a search
was made for u mouse trap.
".Vow, the town where the Herrys
were staying was a nice enough little
place in its wny, but it was not agrett
commercial center. You could buy most
things that winter visitors to Florida
are likely to want, but this did not in
clude mouse Iraiis. The storekeeper
said lie had never before thought that
there was any demnnd for mouse traps
among his customers, lie would send
for a consignment of the newest make,
however.
"But this plan meant waiting for,
perhaps, a week, and letting the mice
have their fling in the meantime. Ethel
Buid she could still hear them in the
next room ut night, and thsy kept her
awake, although she felt more secure
in the hammock in her mother's room.
She wns urgent to have those mice ex
terminated, and she was a young wom
an accustomed to have her will obeyed.
"This was a chance for the young
man to prove his devotion. He had no
mouse trup to- offer the hidy, but be had
a horse, and he could ride that horse
far and fast. He mounted at dawn,
nnd rode to a port 22 miles away, where
there were many ironmongery stores,
and at night he returned in triumph,
though a little wayworn, bearing tho
mouse trap.
"It was a humble sort of mouse trap
one of the wire cnge kind, but the
young Englishman thought it would
do. So did Ethel. She rewarded him
with smiles and thanks; he waa happy,
and the trap, baited with codfish, wia
act.
"That night Ethel again thought she
heard stirrings, but in the morning,
when her gallant came, early, to see
how his trap worked she herself could
not face the chances of seeing a mouse,
even in captivity it was found that the
trap was empty.
" To tell the truth,' said the young
man, 'I never had much confidence in
this kind of trap. Sorry I didn't look
for one of the other kind with a
spring, you know. And, come to think
of it, I don't believe mice care much for
codfish. Bo you? Well, I'll Just ride
over again to-day and see if I can't get
one of the spring sort-'
"That was it very fair test of that
young man's devotion, I think. He had
ridden about t.'. miles the day before,
and here he was going to do it over
again, just to get a better mouse trap
for his lady love. I know it made a
deep impression on her at the time, for
she told me ns much. She told me that
when the Honorable Tom that was his
name started out on his second mouse
trap expedition they had it all pretty
well settle. 1 thut they should be mar
ried two weeks later, in a quiet way.
He said that he wanted to surprise his
brother nnd 'all of them at home,' bo
he would not say a word, about it be
forehand just send thein a cable to
say he was married. And I quite be
lieve that Mrs. Berry would have given
her consent; she liked the way the
young man had acted in taking her into f
his confidence from the first. 1
"Well, that Becond time he came
back rather earlier than he had the
night before. The mother and daugh
ter were sitting up, waiting for him on
the veranda. lie had succeeded in get
ting a spring trap, and with It he
brought a great hunk of cheese, saying
that cheese was the only sure bait for
mice.' 'And If that doesn't catch 'em,'
he said, 'nothing will. You must pull
down the house, or get into other quar
ters. Only, don't go away from here,
"That night, when the trap had been
properly baited and set, there was a
great commotion in the. next room to
Mrs. Berry's. Ethel described It as a
sudden loud click, immediately fol
lowed by a sound as if some one had a
piece of wood tied to a string and was
whipping the floor and the walls of
the next room with It. In between the
raps and knocks the two women heard
a sound like dried peas shaken in a
bag.
"Then they knew what It was all
about.
"And this waa what showed the pe
culiar make-up of that girl; she
wouldn't have gone into the room if a
mouse had been there, but as soon as
she was quite sure it was a rattlesnake
she put on her slippers, lighted a lamp
and led the way.
"By that time the violence of the
snake's agonies had subsided. He had
stopped whipping and threshing about.
Only the faint tremor of his rattles
kept up. You see, he didn't care for
codfish, but cheese, being made of
milk, had a certain attraction for him.
He had gone to Investigate the bait on
that mousetrap and bad sprung It Juat
aa If he had been a real mouse. The
consequence was that the spring, which
waa a good, strong one, had gripped
him tight on the back of his head. And
that was the end of him.
"But, though Ethel could go Into that
room with a lamp and look at the snake,
the sight nearly shocked her into hys
terics. She said she could never forget
the look of that dead rattler, with its
jaws wide open, staring at her in the
corner of the room. Mure than that,
after she had nearly dropped the lamp
and set tde house on lire, she declared
that she must get out and go to some
other house. She could not stay in thnt
house another hour. Fortunately, there
MM a sort of hotel in the town, nnd the
Herrys went to it. But it seemed very
linrd ut the time ut least that during
the next few dnyR, while she, was suf
fering from an attack of fever, the doc
tor would uot let Honorable Tom even
send her a note. The fact is, she could
not bear anything that reminded her of
'that hideous night,' as she always
called it.
"But here is where the providence
that watches over good girls comes in, I
think. Now observe
"A few days later, when they were
just going to stnrt north, Ethel saw the
young man and told him that their
marriage must be postponed for some
mouths, until she could forget all about
that horrible mousetrap affair. She
said that, for some time to come, the
sight of him would always remind her
of it rattlesnake with its mouth wide
open.
"He tried to take her out of It, but
one evening out in the moonlight she
told him just how it was.
"Now, you may think that n very un
kind thing for a girl to say to her de
voted lover, nnd no wonder he didn't
seem to like it. Hut it was jus t as well
that she did take that fancy.
"She went with her mother to New
York, and there by the merest acci
dent, observe she met another Eng
lishman who knew Honorable Tom.
Then, in conversation, it came out that
Honorable Tom's brother had sent him
to Florida on purpose to separate him
from Honorable Mrs. Tom, who was a
very undesirable person.
"In fact, Honorable Tom was the black
sheep of the family. In many ways he
was not a bad fellow never stole, or
anything of thnt kind but he had a
very light Idea of his obligations in the
way of marriage, evidently.
"He himself said, when he was asked
about the affair, that he had come to
Florida on purpose to escape from 'that
woman' meaning Honorable Mrs.
Tom, his lawful wife.
"So, you see, that mousetrap and that
rattlesnake did one good turn for Ethel
Berry then, and a second good turn, you
nay say, when she married the doctor
who treated her for the nervous trouble
that followed.
"And I happen to know that the doc
tor has made her a particularly good
husband. I know It by her looks. lean
always tell a happy wife." N. 0.

OLD SOL'S RIDE IN 1840
Flowery Weather Prrdletloma of tlto
Joaraallats of Long
Aaro.
In these days of practical newspaper
writing, in which bald facta are ex
pressed In the plainest and tersest form,
the flowery language indulged in by
Borne of the "journalists" hnlf a cen
tury ago sounds peculiur. The follow
ing convulsion was. copied by one of the
local papers from the New York Trib
une In 1849 as worthy of a high place
In the newspaper literature of the
day:
"On Saturday evening, at 11:17
o'clock the sun rode calmly nnd mildly
over the autumnal cuqinux nnd cast his
golden anchor on the wintry coast of j
autumn. But ns yet the vast ocean of
air through which he Bails is glowing
and transparent with the memory of
the long summer duys that have passed
over It, darting their rich beams to Its
very depths. Even as we write, how
ever, the remembrance fades, like the
sky's blanching souvenirs of sunset;
and In the distance the cold ghosts of
winter glare nnd wave their frozen
wings, which creak on icy hinges
while in the silence of midnight a
prophetic voice of wailing and desola
tion moans fitfully at the casement."
Few people can contemplate this
specimen of literary architecture with
out experiencing a feeling of awe and
sadness, with a few cold shivers on the
aide. It is proof positive that the pro
fession has, in some things, gained by
what it has lost. Albany Argus.
Candles Made of Naphtha,
A Russian engineer has succeeded In
discovering a practical method of mak
ing naphtha candles. These are com
posed of naphtha, petroleum, tallow
and a special substance to give the
candles consistence. In St. Petersburg
these lights can be bought at about
the same price as stcarine candles, to
which they will become a formidable
competitor. The naphtha candles burn
with a smokeless flame and give out a
powerful light The Inventor intends
establishing a large factory for the
production of these lights, Chicago

EXPLANATORY.
Introductory. Nebuchadnezzar had
just returned from a triumphant cam
paign aguinst his enemies In the west
nnd south against Egypt, Syria, and
Arabia nnd he celebrates his return
by the erection of a colossal image and
a grand religious festival. The image
was made of gold, probably not of solid
gold, but of wood or clay covered with
plates of gold. The great image of Bel
is said, In Bel and the Dragon (v. 7), to
have been of clay within and brass out
side. Apocrypha. "Nebuchadnezzar,
like other despots who suffer from the
vertigo of autocracy, was liable to sud
den out burst s of almost spasmodic fury.
We read of such storms of rage in the
case of AntiochuB Epiphanes, of Nero,
of Valentiniau 1., and even of Theodo
sius. The double insult to himself and
to his god on the part of men to whom
he had shown such conspicuous favor
transported him out of himself."

true?" Is it of urpose? Did you in
tend to refuse my command, or was it a
BUS undtrstuli ding that can be passed

English for anxious, solicitous. II. Vj
We have no need. (1) Because It would
be useless to reply to the king in his
present temper. They could not change
him. (2) Their actions had answered
him already. (3) Their minds were
made up, and nothing could change
them. V. 10. "Nebuchadnezzar full
of fury," so that his "visage was
changed" with his passionate excite
ment. II. In the Fiery Furnace. Vs. 10-05.
"Heat the furnace one seven times
more:" Expressing the fierceness of
the fury burning in his heart, and ren
dering it Impossible that any could be
rescued from such flames. The fact is
mentioned to show the greatness of the
deliverance that followed. V. 21.
"Bound in their coats," etc. "Herodotus
describes the Babylonians as wearing a
long undergarment or shirt of linen,
which reached down to the feet. Over
this they wore a woolen gown or tunic,
shorter than the other (hats in A. V.7)
and a short hood or cape over their head
and shoulders. This description is ex
actly borne out by the sculptures on the
monuments. 'Coats' are the long un
dergarment; 'hosen' Is the cupc that
was thrown over the head and shoul
ders for protection front the sun, and
bound round the head with a fillet, ex
actly as to this day the Uedawee and
Syrians wear the ketleh of silken or
woolen stuff, and fasten it round the
head with a camel's-halrcord." Canon
Tristram.
V. 25. "The fourth is like the Son of
Qod:" As the article is wanting in the
sacred text, it 1b more correct to read a
son of the gods (as in R. V.) Only a di
vine being, the king knew, oould live
thus in the fire himself, or preserve
others there. No doubt in reality it was
the Son of God, who, as "the angel of
the Lord," at various times appeared to
the Old Testament saints. He it Is who
maybe found In every fiery furnace of
life into which His servants are thrown.
in. The Deliverance. Vs. 26-28. 20.
"Come forth, and come hither:" Neb
uchadnezzar makes sure thnt what he
sees is real, and not a mere vision. V,
27. "The princes . . . saw these men:"
The deliverance was public, unmistak
able, nnd proved by many witnesses. V.
28. "Blessed be the God of Shadrach:"
etc. The king recognized the power of
the Jew's God, and His readiness to
defend those who obeyed Him, The
miracle would make such an impression
on the princes and people that the king
could more easily treat the Jews more
kindly. The effect on the exiles was
also good. It would enrich their faith;
it held before them noble examples; it
would enable them to realize the power
and goodness of God; it was one of the
forces that during the exile entirely
