A LADY WITH MONEY.
Oh, it is funny, how Mm. Honey,
With all her money, still knows no Joy;
(With all her treasure, ami all her leisure,
She hunts lor pleasure, but Fate is coy.
ItVith dollars paving, she's ever craving,
And even ravine, she longs for peace;
Her joys are bubbles, her discord doubles,
And all her troubles they e'er increase.
Ihcngh highly scented, she's discontented,
'And nigh demented, anil always cross;
She's always scowling, and ever growling.
And even howling; too bad, of course;
But what are sables, and laden tables.
And jeweled cables, and boundless
wealth,
(To ffad conditions, bad dispositions,
And old physicians, and wretched
health?
Her head is aching, her heart is breaking,
All drags she's taking, but no avail;
For all her lotions, and all her potions,
And patent notions, they can but fail.
Eer heart needs lightness, her mind needs
brightness.
Her ways politeness, I have to tell,
For incidentally, all's mental,
iWere she more gentle she would be
well.

(A Short fitory )
It was 10 o'clock on a midsummer
day, and th- sunlight cast great gold
en splashes on the disturbed, fouled
dust of the arena. The tiers of seats,
too, rising up and up, looked woefully
deserted and bare, and the canvas
Bides and roof, as they flapped and
bellied in the wind, stood out hid
eously black and Boiled in the search
ing light.
Lubln and Babette were dressed as
ngels or fairies and were wating
with childish impatience to rehearse
their ascending feat. They wore lit
tle wings to their backs, and Lubin
carried a quiver of arrows slung on
his shoulders, such as Cupid wears.
A couple of workmen adjusted the
wires that should convey them
through the great slit in the roof,
down which at night the limelight
was to penetrate, and the ringmaster
rubbed his hands in a satisfied way
and condescended to laugh with his
fubordlnates, because he knew per
fectly well that he had an excellent
effect in preparation that should de
light and astonish his patrons.
Lubin was a stout boy of nine.
His heart beat high at the thought of
bis ascent, and, though probably en
tertaining some misgivings, ho 5s
Bumed a stolid front and smiled
bravely, tapping his little pink legs
in the most casual manner with h!s
gilt bow.
Babette was only six. She had
golden hair dressed like the halos one
sees around the heads of saints, and
her eyes were humid and timid as
a doe's, and her limbs slender and
fragile, and easily bruised or broicen.
She had no mother to stand by an7
comfort her; but Lubin, who had
vowed his love for her,' placed one
rm around her waist and said:
"See, Babette, we shall rise up to
ward the sky, like angels in the pic
tures; and the people will clap their
bands and shout! And they will
throw us sweetmeats, and the ring
master will take you in his arms af
terward and kiss ycu, and not use the
Whip, for you and I will bring him
much money by our flying."
"Yes, 4jubin," answered Babette,
shivering, "but it is a long way up to
the roof, and the wires may break."
"Not a bit rf it," retorted Lubin
Btoutly. "See, I will go up first, and
then you will feel sure."
The wires were held in readiness.
"Now, then, youngsters," said the
ringmaster, "up you go! Ha, ha,
ba! This shall be a surprise!"
Lubin stepped boldly forward, .;nd
the hooks on the wires were fas
tened to a belt concealed in the folds
of. his trunks. Thca the men above
pulled, and he sailed gracefully un
ward; his little pink legs posed ele
gantly, his arms held forward, and
bis wings fluttering as if he really
flew, so naturally and prettily that
the manager and these below cried
out, "Fine! This is indeed fairy
iike!" When he was within three feet of'
the roof, the ringmaster clapped his
bands, and down he came, and, belug
unfastened, was sent off to dress
bimself, with a pat on his head and a
penny.
"Now, Babette," said they, "you
come and try."
Babette was nervous, but fearing
the whip more than the fall, sub
mitted quietly enough. Up, up, up,
ontil she passed through the slit in
the roof and was basking in the real
lunshine outside.
"Excellent, excellent!" shouted the
manager. When Babette descended
he was rewarded with two pats on
the head and two pennies.
She rushed to tell the news to
Lubin. "I can fly higher than you,
Lubin," she said exultantly. "I went
right through the slit in the roof.
(And Monsieur Claude gave me two
pennies, and I am not a bit afraid."
And Bhe clapped her hands and
lanced around her child lover In
treat glee.
"Bravo, Babette!" cried Lubin
proudly. "I told yo there was noth
ing to fear."
"Ah! Lubln," she laughed, "I can
fly higher than you I can fly much
higher than you."
Then she kissed him, and he kissed
her, not In the least envious, and
they went out and shared their three
pennies In chocolates.
Night came, and the circus wan
full. The two children eagerly and
joyfully looked forward to the lime
light ascent that was to conclude the
fairy ballet. Tbey danced in the
fiance, they Bang lustily In the chor
us, and then as a hundred other
children were whirling round them,
they took their places in the centre
of the arena, while the lines were
dropped from the slit in the root,
through which th,e limelight flanhed.
The band played something dreamy,
the crowds of fairies parted, an!
Lituin comr.-.enced to ascend amidst
the plaudits of the audience.
How handsome he looked with his
smiling face and gracefully posed
limbs! The people were delighted.
Babette was delighted. She called
out in spite of herself: "Oh, Lubin, I
can fly higher than that!" Then he
disappeared through the slit in the
roof and already her little legs were
ten fet from the ground.
Up, up, up she went. The crowd
cheered, and she smiled and bowed
and waved her baby arms, while her
heart seemed too big for her body to
hold it.
"I'm coming, Lubln," she shouted.
as she neared the slit in the roof, and
saw the f -ce of her little sweetheart
looking down and smiling and proud
of her. "But I flew higher than you
this morning, dear, and "
Snap! The wires had broken.
Crash! A little bundle of quivering
humanity nnd bloodstained gauze lay
throbbing in th? dust of the arena.
The ringmaster and his attendants
crowded around her. He tried to lift
her, but she screamed out, and so'me
body Bald, "Let her be! Let her be!
You can't mend her!"
Then (he pale faced public went
away.
Lubln sas by her side, crying over
his little sweetheart. He laid his
hand near her; he would not touch
her for fear of causing her pain. She
turned hr eyes toward Tilui.
"I didn't fly so high as you to
night, deir Lubin," she whispered,
"but I'll try and do better next time."
Then tihe fell asleep. Miriam

Wily West! Virginian Protects Sheep
by Hanging .Out Lights.
In the Williams River country of
West Virginia the bears are greatly
on the intrease. There is a blue
grass settlement about the extreme
head of the river, says Recreation,
which has all but been driven out
of the sheep business by bears.
On the Iilack Mountain run one
man claimed to have identified the
sgns of 117 bears in one day's hunt.
That seems a good many bears, but
I have hunted and fished so long
and told p.bout my adventures at so
many campfires that I cannot con
sistently deny anything.
Nevertheless, every now and then
a hunter runs upon a bear and kills
it. Premeditated killing of bears is
rarely known, as this wisest of the
forest animalii knows well how to
avoid men. A. rabbit is courageous
compared to a black bear. ThiB
shows the superior intelligence of
Bruin. .
A ut twenty years ago an un
armed fisherman killed a bear with a
large stone at the Red Hole. He was
resting at the top of a precipitous
bank of Mauch Chunk Bhale when a
bear, chased by dogs, came into the
river and passed ut the foot of the
bank. The man cast a large stone
down upon it and (tunned it so that
he was able to kill it. It was a two-
year-old. The occurrence is well au
thenticated.
The sheep killers are generally the
biggest bears of them all and are
very wise. They nev!r enter a field
without first making u complete cir
cuit to see if a man has crossed the
fence. If he lias they withdraw.
One sheep raiser found that bang'
ing a half dozen lighted lanterns
about his farm caused the bears to
leave his flock severely t.lone.
New Source of Starch,
In a bulletin of the Jamaica De

that the high percentage cf starch in
the cassava makes the latter more
valuable than the potato as a source
of this substance. The cassava is
also not subiect to the fungoid dis
eases prevalent in the German pota
to fields, from which a large propor
tion of the starch now sold in Great
Britain is derived. The cassava sea
