If all the world could give of woe or weal.
Could find within my henrt no renting plaoa,
Yon wnnld not think of any bitter pant,
You would not eliiiln me for a careless Word,
Yon could not lie no cruel nt the lent
As to eondeinn me, unconfemrd, unheard.

And tn my hand, and on my face the light

If I were lying tlmn, ami one nhotild nny

With tenient anger yon wonld drive away
That one and swear 'twere all base calumny.
I'll not rebnkn yon, though my heart be full.
I dare not chide. I, too, may tie antray.
Expnrlenco yet may teach a bitter school
Me what to do and whnt, pen-hnnee, to any.
And yet I ank yon, humbly, tenderly.

Would you not grieve of all munt bitterly

more magic potion than healthy futiguc,

BetuuMH people aro afraid f being
thought anperatitiona with regard to
dreama thero haa been an uneientitlo
nvoidnnoo of tho whole topic, which ia
no let superstition and puerile, the
conaoquence of which foolish revulsion
has been that one of the most curious
fnnotkniaof tho bruin ia atiil in a period
of universal invest iRation left uuex
amiund nnd nuexpluiiietL Home dub
bling there bo been in tlto matter, but
bo far no tenable explanatMin haa been
offered of those atruugo illusiona of
Bleep with which all mankind ia fumil
lor. Tho results np to this timo of I hi
dabbling aro for tho moat purt of little
mure valno than tho conteuta of tlie
greasy, well thumbed dream books tluil
foniand the only and dearly beloved (li
brary of eighteenth century inilkmaidv
and apprentice. The greater portion rif
eucn labor a haa boeu bcHtowod on the
Buliject has been mainly directed toward
euVu-ta to prove the tixtreme rapidity
with which the dream pause turouJi
the mind, and that it ia some trivuui
outward cause at the moment of rous
ing from alnmber, aueh aa a noise, a
light or tho like, which wakes tho
brain to this miraculous celerity of ira
agiuutive creation.
The general conviction that dreama
oconr only ut tho instant of the awaken
ing shows how little real attention 'haa
been bestowed upon itbo matter, since
the most oasuul observation of "the dog
that hunts in dreams" would show that
he may he chusing the wild doer and
following the roe in the gray kingdom
of seeming without .breaking his slum'
bars. Ho will start and twitoh and give
tongue after tho phantom quarry ho
dreams himself pursuing. But given tho
truth of any one ox those assertions, still
the heart of the mystery has not yet
been plucked out, ainoe it ia not ex
plained why a noise or a gleam of light
such aa the senses are quite familiar
wita In waking consciousness should
at tho moment of rousing cause tut
brain to create with inconceivable ra
pidity a seriea of phantasmagoria ia
order to explain to itself the familiar
phenomena of light or sound.
It in broadly assorted 4y many that
tne anemory retains each and every ex
perience which life has presented for its
contemplation, but this is hardly true.
It makes to a certain extent a ohoios
and tshooses oftentimes with apparent
caprice. To demonstrate ithe truth of
this, let ono endeavor to recall the first
Impression retained by his childish
mind, and it usually proves to be some
thing extremely trivial.
A lady, interrogated aa ia this, de
clared her first dear memory was a
sense of the oomfort to her tired little
8-year-old body of the clean linen sheets
of the bed at the end of the most perilous
and adventurous journey, and of whose
startling incidents her memory had pre
served nothiag. Again this oapricioua
faculty will seize on some few high
lights In a vivid ploture and reject all
the unimportant details. As a rule,
however, it is the profound stirringa of
the emotions which wake .the memory
to activity. A woman never forgets her
first lover, A man to the end of his life
can recall his first triumph.
Hiss B island believes that wa inherit
many of the memories that oome to us.
Waking aa well aa sleeping. Every one
haa felt many times in his life a sense
of familiarity with incidents that have
had no plaoa in his own experience and
hat found it impossible to offer any ex
piaiiatioa for the feeling, posting sud
denly around a turn of a mil upon a
fnir and unknown lolidsrapn, his heart
may bound with a keen sense of recog
nition of its unfamiliar out I inns. In tho
midst of a tingling setine of eiuction n
sensation of thn whole incident being n
mere dull repetition will rob it of its
joy or pain. A sentence begun by A
friend is recognized ns trite and old lie
fore it ia half dour', though it rrlVr to
matters new to the hearer. A sound, n
perfume, a sensation, will awaken feel
ings having no couiiection with tho oc
casion. In sleep the brain is peculiarly active
in certain directions, not being distracted
by the multitndn of impressions con
stantly conveyed to it by the live senses,
anil experiment with hypnotic aleers
prove that some of its functions becomo
in sleep abnormally acute and vigorous.
Why not the function of memory? Tho
possession which during the waking
hours were useless, and therefore re
jected by tho will, surge up again, vivid
and potent, and troop before the percep
tion unsummoned, motley and fantast ic
serving no purpose more apparent than
do the idle, disconnected recollections
of ouo's waking moments of dreaminess,
aud yet it may bap, withal, that the
tireless brain, forever turning over and
over its heirlooms in tho night, is seek
ing here an inspiration or there a mem
ory to be used in that flerco aud complex
struggle called life, New York Com

The German emperor must have been
very mnoh amused when he read the
speech of one of tlie natives of the Cam
cjroons In proposing the health of the
kaiser at a recent festival The speech
was as follows: "The emperor Is tlie
wisest and moat powerful man in the
world. He sens the treasures in the mid
dle of the earth, and he has them brought
forth. Ho span the world with iron
threads, aud as aoon as ho touches them
his words travel over space. Ho bus
steamships that sail on dry land. When
a mountain stands in his way, ho bores
a holo through it. If a river bore his
progress, be builds a street in tho air.
Though tho emperor is tho richest of all
men, lie has only one wife, and though
his wife is tho most beautiful woman
on earth ho had not anything to pay for
bor. "London ulobe.

Famous old Governor lloury A. Wise
of Virginia was directly or indirectly
the source of many a good wtory. llert
is one that I do not think has found its
way into print: Ono day nt a political
gathering lie was approached by a well
dressed individual, who shook hands
warmly with him. Tito governor wis a
bit bothered and confessed he could not
recall tho hand shaker's name.
"Why, you must remember mo, gov
rnor " uid the latter. "I'm from
Richmond. I niadu your shirts. "
"Why, of course," aaid tho governor
with all a politioiuu's tact "Uontlo

THE CLIFF RUINS OF COLORADO.
A Itrglan of Knpeelal Interrat to Students
of the Prehlntorle.
The cliff ruin of thn San Juan and
tho Mancoa have been tho center of at
traction, havo been viewed from all
sides, mid their wonders have been told
and retold to tho world timo and timo
again. Scientific men havo visited tho
region, have penetrated southwestern
Colorado and have considered that seo-
tiou a pluoo of especial interest, because
the cliff nnd cavo dwellings are probably
tho oldest in this strange land, being
the first built in that mysterious journey
southward of a greot but unknown peo
ple. For 90 years the prospector has
followed the San Juan river and gawd
with careless unconcern on the rough
and broken walls, so full of interest to
the arohtoologlst
But tho mind of the prospector has
no room for curios, and ho bus no timo
for archaeological investigation. He
sees only tho glitter of tho gold in tho
sand, and thinks only of the time when
ho shall have mode his stake In No
vember of 1803 hundreds of gold hunt
ers rushed madly into tho canyon north
of tho Navajo mountain, traveled 800
miles over bleak, desert tablelands, suf
fering terribly from the cold, hunger
and the long, wearisotno Journey. In a
few days they had ataked off all tho
availablo laud for CO miles up and down
the river and then retnrncd home with
out having obtained so much aa a color
of gold, and today have nothing to show
for it but tho stakes.
It is one of tho most wildly pictur
esque aud beautiful regions in tho
world. The bleak old Navajo mountain
risea abruptly and towers liko a grim
sentinel over the surrounding mesas,
while in a canyon gorge more thau 8,000
feet below its base the Kio San Juan
appears liko a silver threaiL The canyon
is several miles wide, and a descent can
bo mado to tho river only by a prooipi
tons trail, but as tho river approaches
the groat Colorado the canyon becomes
more narrow and tho wall more porpeii
dioulur, aud when it merges into tho
Grand canyon it is scarcely more than a
deep, dark channel
A few miles from tho Colorado river,
where tho canyon is uot moro than 800
or 1,000 feet from wall to wall, and
whoro tho walls are perpendicular and
smooth, on tho right wull aro tho pic
ture of seven warriors with bows
drawn to tho last notch, while across
tho river on tho opposite sido aro tho
pictures of sovon antelope, apparently
in full run to escape tho hunters. Those
pictures aro well executed and aro in
tho most iuuocossiblo place. Evidently
tho artist had to be lowered from a
ledgo hundreds of feet above the picture
aud held suspended while ho performed
his tedious task. There are many places
ill tiro inystio southwest whero such
paintings arc to bo found. Denver
