    TM$ fILOTeOAT,
ftsat out ff v window I can see ;
The great ships sailing, proud and fr**.
As to and fro they grandly go.
Across the singing, trackless main.
Their forms majestic bear a chain
Whose golden links \vill bind in one
All lands and peoples 'neath the sun.
Far out on the wide and open sea
They bound along so fearlessly
'Twould seem that when they shoreward com*
Their compass true would guide them home,
But near the land they need a hand
To lead them through the dang'rous way;
At harbor gate they lie and wait
For trusty pilot to appear
And into port their course to steer.
A little boat that seems a mote
Glides swiftly down the narrow bay. j I
The tiny thing on steam fleeced win* A J
Flies gav ly out with busy speed. * J
It looks so wee, it seems to me, "
Too weak the vessel huge to lead. i
With seeming pride it hies alongside
Of the giant that looms abaft,
Whose greatness now, with shore set prow,
In meekness follows the little craft.
In the voyage of life r
Mid its strain and strife
The weak may aye help the strong, >'
And none so great or high in state
But he may need helping along.

THE LIMIT OF HARD LUCK.
Varied Kaperlence* of Cheap The
atrical Companies on the Itoad.
Actor folks have some varied and pecul
iar experiences.
"Once upon a time," as all good stories
begin, there was a company which strand
ed at Forth Worth, Tex. They were in
sore straits—owed a hotel bill, the
printer and the transfer man. Under the
existing circumstances some one met one
of the actors and said:
"Old man, let me give you a friendly
tip—get out of here and goto Little
Rock. There's the town, 'me boy.' It's
on a boom, and you can't play to less
than S7OO or SBOO to save your life."
This sounded well, very well, and the
actor, who, by the way, was the "heavy
man," or "villain," of the company, sub
mitted the proposition to a called meet
ing of the company in the parlor of the
hotel, the result of which was an agree
ment that each one should pawn some
thing and raise the cash to pay the bills,
railroad fare, etc. This was done, and in
due time they arrived at Little Rock.
On the train it had been agreed, after
a seat to seat consultation, that the com
pany should ride up town, put on a bold
front and be particularly pleasant to ev
erybody. So when the train pulled into
Little Rock they dismounted, and the bus
was bo filled that the "heavy man" had
to ride on the front seat with the driver.
"Fine evening," ventured the "villain."
"Yet," was the laconic reply.
"That's a beautiful sunset over there,"
continued the actor, pointing to a red
glow at his left.
"Sunset! Sunset, nawthin!" snorted
the driver in full scorn. "That's the
operay house burnin down."
While I am at it 1 might as well tell
of that other company, a repertory com
pany, which played 12 days, opening
Monday afternoons and playing twice a
day for the entire week in towns not
usually good for a "one night stand" for a
metropolitan organization.
This one opened on a Monday after
noon at Ravenna, 0., an extraordinary
bad stand, and it was "raining pitch
forks." Two o'clock came and not a
single soul in the house; hulf past 2, and
the anxious "actor-manager," looking out
the "peephole" in the curtain, saw one
lone individual sitting in stately silence
in the middle of the "hall."
To close and not play meant the circu
lation of the report that they were strand
ed, so the actor-manager stepped before
the curtain and said:
"Sir, notwithstanding that you are the
only distinguished citizen of this pro
gressive place who has deigned to honor
us with your presence at this, our open
ing performance, I wish to state that we
shall proceed with the performance and
give just as careful a production as
though the 'house was packed to the
walls.' "
"I wish you'd hurry up, then," grunted
the audience. "I'm the janitor, and I
want togo home."—Denver Times.
Man, Poor Man!
He cannot put a puff round his elbow
when his sleeves wear out.
His friends would smile if he disguised
a pair of frayed trousers with graceful
little shingle flounces.
He would likewise be guyed if he
sought to cover the ravage of a spark
from his cigar with an applique of even
the finest lace.
The poor thing must shave every other
day at the outside or pose as an anarch
ist.
He has to content himself with somber
colorings or be accused of disturbing the
peace.
He may not wear flowers or ribbons in
his hair, no matter how bald he becomes.
His heirs would have a guardian ap
pointed should he take to lace trimmed
lingerie.
The feathers in his cap are as nothing
,'rom the decorative standpoint.
He may not take unto himself a lace
iverskirt when his pearl trousers become
lingy.
He can't edge his coat sleeve with a
all of lace to hide a scarred or maimed
land.
A pink veil is out of the question, no
natter how muddy his complexion may
ecome.
As for covering up the stain made by
careless waiter with a jabot—no!

Thinks the wife, to have the wedding ring
slip from the finger. "Something is going
to happen.' 1
Something is happening. That ring
conld hardly be pulled from the finger
when it was put there a few years ago
Now it slips off by its own weight. How
thin the fingers have grown ! And the
fingers don't grow thin alone. How thin
the face is and how thin the once plump
form. Almost unconsciously the wife
has been fading and wasting away. The
strength given to children has never been
regained. Drains which should have been
stopped have been neglected.
That is a common experience with
women, unless some friend has shared
with them the secret of the strengthening
and healing power of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. It regulates the periods,
dries the drains which undermine the
strength, heals inflammation and ulcera
tion, and cures female weakness. It makes
the baby's advent practically painless and
gives vigor and vitality to nursing mothers.

Bloqnenee and the Pen.
Our worthy forefathers were fond of
rhetoric—particularly of funereal rhet

perceive the dividing line between the
sublime and ridiculous. They seem,
moreover, to have regarded the extraor

kindred element to the Impressive.

She swallowed her disappointment and
entertained her friends just as if the peal
of the doorbell did not send the dis
tinguished guest scurrying to his bed
room, to remain until the visitor had de
parted. At the termination of his visit
her tongue was loosened sin- talked to
her heart's content. But one-half of her
friends doubted the truth of her state
ments, because they did not understand
the delicacy which compelled her to obey
the wishes of a guest. She was a true
hostess, but he was a surly guest, inas
much as it would not hurt him to appear
for an hour to meet her friends, and the
act would have given her an amount of

An Old Sew Jersey School bouse.
The pupil of today would think his
opportunities very great If he could
see the school equipment of a hundred
years ago. A Morris county <N. J.)
school of that period is thus described
In an old letter of one of Its attendants:
The building was constructed of logs,
and Instead of glass for windows,
sheepskins were stretched over the
apertures made by sawing off an occa
sional log. The windows had one
merit—they prevented pupils from
being Interrupted in their study by
what was going on outside. The time
was regulated by an hourglass, and
the pupils drank water from a tum
bler made of a cow's horn or from a
ground shell.
In spite of these differences of equip
ment, the schools of a century ago re
sembled those of today in orle notable
respect—they had for the most part
the same great literary works that are
the standards of our language now.
The greatest literature is fortunately
the possession of many centuries.

the regular newspaper rate of four

a basis for our figuring.

United States to his home in F.ustport,

for the forwarding of his mail. The
paper is returned by the next steamer,
and indue time it travels back over
the same route, covering this time
about 0.500 miles to the most eastern

I.ondon'N Future Population.
What will the population of London
be in 1950? This is no mere question
of curiosity. It must shortly engage
parliament, for it is because the an
swers given to it are so divergent that
London's water supply question is so
complex. Each plan that is proposed
for insuring to Londoners enough wa
ter to drink and bathe in is based on a
calculation of London's probable popu
lation 50 years hence. Royal commis
sions and experts have put the figure
at anything from 15,000.000 to 50,000,-
000. Other authorities denounce these
conjectures as absurd, and an increase
to 12,000.000 is preillcto.i ti».)
likely inflation. A city of that popula
tion is sufficiently appalling to put one
in love with the still more sober esti
mate of Mr. I'ryce Williams, who in a
paper read some years ago before the

McKlnley'a Itlack Suit.
A suit of clothes made of black wool
en cloth which has never been through
the dye tub is probably the most re
■«inarkable costume that,. President Mc
'lll\lirfo£vfias eve] - owned? 'That "lie* can
weaWt, as'one of a very few men who
have enough of the wool to make a suit
of clothes, is due to the courtesy of
George W. Peterson, who owns a flock
of 70 black sheep, the only really black
flock in the country. Mr. Peterson has
also given Senator Piatt a quantity of
the same cloth. No dye of any sort
was used, and the wool is as pure iu
color and texture as when it came from
the sheep's backs.
As this is the only known instance
in which black cloth has been made
without dyeing the wool, President Mc-
Kinley will be a marked man when he
appears in his priceless suit of clothes.

Elephant Who Knrnn His Hoard.
James Cahill of Roney's Point is the
bnly person in West Virginia and prob
ably in the United States who has In
regular use upon his farm an elephant
which is used for farm work. With
the swaying beast hitched up to a plow
he can turn more ground than any
of his neighbors with a team of horses,
and when it comes to hauling logs the
elephant will walk away with ease
with logs which the best teams of his
neighbors cannot move.
The elephant eats little more than a
horse and does many times the work
of one, is gentle and docile and causes
little trouble, and Mr. Cahill is more
than pleased with his experiment. Mr.
Cahill bought the elephant from a
stranded circus proprietor.—Baltimore

Sugar is found in parsnips, mallows

It has been estimated that if the rhizo
pods, which secrete living shells in the
ocean, are as numerous down to a depth
of GOO feet as they are near the surface
there are over 10 tons of shells of carbo
nate of lime in the upper fathoms of ev
ery square mile of the ocean.
During the eclipse of the sun in May,
1000, an English observer, Mr. Evershed,
as reported at a recent meeting of the

point on the edge of the moon where the
sun was shining through a very deep val

ed to be about 35,000 feet iu altitude.
This exceeds by G,(K»O feet the estimated
height of Mount Everest, the loftiest

A Great Sinner's Snertllee*.
To be a great singer requires many sac
rifices.
Melba never allows herself any sweets,
although she is passionately fond of
sweet things.
Seinbrich eschews pastries, but con
fesses to a frequent and intense longing
for things of this kind.
Nordica, while she does not absolutely
taboo all swi ets and rich dishes, has
allowed herself little indulgence in such
things since she became a singer.
Emma Eames is very strict about her
diet, and her daily life is laid out by
rules from which she seldom diverges, no
matter how great the temptation.
She never sees any one or reads any
letters or telegrams the day she is to
sing, either at a matinee or an evening
performance, and she never accepts any
invitation for the evening before. Everj
day, no matter how disagreeable tht
weather, she goes for a walk.
Almost all singers remain indoors in
the morning, either resting or practicing,
and do not go out until after 2 o'clock.
Wine must be avoided.
Calve once declared that she was pin
ing to sit down to a bi£, rich, hearty
wo&iugman's dinner, where she could
eat just what she wanted, without evci
having to think about consequences oi
having any one remind her that she had
a voice.
Patti has sacrificed everything to liet
talent. 'I owe tiie pre- -rvation of mj
voice to the fact that 1 never allow my
self to forget that 1 am a singer," she
has said. "It i> oTicu inconvenient, but
it is the p--:«aity 1 i.-ust pay for a great
gift."
Bl »vt nnil I'lmelflah.
Louisa M. Aicott was one of thos«
strong spirits whose lot it is to give, not
to receive; to support, not to lean; to
cheer, not to complain; to help, not to b#
helped. Such brave, self reliant ones
command no sympathy and often suffer
from a loneliness which their friends lit
tle suspect. In secret they have their
hours of weakness. They have moments
of feeling hurt and neglected and are
often pathetically grateful for some lit
tle attention.
In Miss AJeott's journal appears this
sad record: "My birthday; 30. Spent
alone, writing hard. No presents but
father's tablets. I never seem to have
many presents, as some do, though I
give a good many. That is best, perhaps,
and n :.acs a g:.'t very precious when it
does come." This was like her bruve, un
selfish soul.
