REUNITED. 1
Let us begin, dear love, where we left off; '
Tie up the broken threads of that old dream
And go on happy as before and seem
Lovers again, though all the world may scoff.
Let us forget the cold, malicious fate
W ho made our loving hearts her idle toys
And once more revel in the sweet old joys
Of happy love. Nay, it is not too latel
Forget the deep plowed furrows in my browl
Forget the silver gleaming in my hair;
Look only in my eyes! Oh, darling, there
The old love shone no longer then than nowl
Tic up the broken threads and let us go,
Like reunited lovers, hand in hand,
liack.and yet onward to the sunny land
Of our To lie, Which was our Long Ago.

PERFUME AND DISEASE.
Nntnre Practical, Xot Poetical, In
Scattering Sweet IUONMOIIIH.
A French physician lias decided that
perfumes prevent people from taking
certain diseases. During an epidemic
his attention was attracted to the fact
that persons who constantly used per
fumes escaped taking the disease. But
he found that the more delicate per
fumes, like violet, lavender, attar of
rose, were more efficacious than musk
and strong, rank essences.
Becearla, the famous Italian botan
ist, long ago advised city officials to
plant trees and shrubs with odorifer
ous blossoms or fragrant leaves along
the highways, courts and parks of
cities, because these strong odors pro
duce ozone, and thereby purify the air
and make the city more healthful to
human beings confined to city streets
or narrow, sunless courts and alleys.
Indeed nature teaches us some of her
delicate mysteries and fa trenching
processes when she plants tuberoses,
orange trees, the night blooming ce
retis and other shrubs and blossoms
with such rich and oft well nlgli over
powering odors In tropic lands to neu
tralize the danger of fevers and mala
ria arising from dense vegetation or
damp, unwholesome marshes and riv
ers.
M ho of us can resist the charm to
the senses of great masses of white
and purple lilacs with countless bees
murmuring round the fragrant spikes
of blossoms -the pure, delightful per
fume not too strong in the open air
under the radiant sun of May? And
lilacs are so vigorous, are easily grown
on any soil and very long lived. Only
an expert could tell how old some lilacs
on a great-grandfather's old place are,
witty the gnarled trunks and vigorous
masses of green and blossoms in May.

BLAMED THE GOVERNMENT.

"See here, young fellow," shouted an
angry visaged business man with his
head up close to the stamp window in
the post office. "You are a pretty lot of
incompetents that the government hires
to transact the nation's mail business."
| "What's the matter, sir?" asked the
clerk, calm by long familiarity with
such outbursts.
"Why, I mailed a letter to Cleveland ;
last week that was of the utmost im
portance, and it has not reached its
destination yet. I have come here to
kick, and to kick right hard."
"You're in the wrong pew, my dear
sir. Go to the superintendent of mails,
and he will tlx you up."
The ludignant "business man" was
passed on from department to depart
ment until he finally ran up against the
authority competent to handle the mat
ter.
"Such things do sometimes happen,"
he was informed in the conciliatory
words of the superintendent. "We'll j
send our tracer after your letter. To
whom was it addressed? Tell us where
and when you mailed it."
"It was a plain envelope," explained
tlie still angry customer. "I usually
use a 'return' envelope, but had rea
sons for using a plain one in this in
stance. Here Is one (fumbling In his
pocket) like It. By George, let me look
at that again. I'll be hanged If that
isn't the very letter. 1 haven't even
addressed It yet." "

there was no suggestion of apology
left behind.—Detroit Free Press.

A WARM DISCUSSION.
JERICHO AGITATED ABOUT A SCHOOL
HOUSE LIGHTNING ROD.
Pap Perkins, the Postmnnter, Telia
About the P'intn That Were Made

-lUK Itnelf Settled the Question.
[Copyright. 1900. by C. B. Lewis.]
It was a liglitnln rod man who start
ed the sehoolhonse discussion. lie
came along the other day and saw that
the schoolhouse was without a rod,
and he went to the town board and of
fered to put one up for so much. The
town board wrastled over it all day
without comin to a conclusion, and
when it got to be known all over Jericho
| n big crowd assembled at the postoiilce
j in the evenin to talk the matter over,
j It was Deacon Spooner who called the
crowd to order and said:
"As it appears to me and to a major
ity of the citizens of this town that an
epoch in the history of Jericho lias ar
rived, I call upon the lightiiiu rod man
to state his case."
"There ain't much to state," replies
the man. "I've offered to put up two
rods on the sclioolhouse and warrant it
a good job for S4O. Hein as a school
house is an emporium of knowledge
and boin as the cause of education may
be said to be the bulwarks of liberty,
I've knocked sls off the reg'lar price."
"I take it that lie's made a p'int,"
says the deacon as he tunks on the
floor with liis cane. "Emporium ol ed
"nE'S MADE A P'INT."
tieation and bulwarks of liberty seem
to come In jest right and Hit the school
house oil nil sides at once. I fur one
am standin neutral in this bizness, aud
I'd like to bear both sides of tlie ques
tion. Mebbe Silas Laphum, who lives
next door to the schoolhouse, would
like to make a few remarks."
"As fur me," says Silas as lie rises
up, "I'm ag'in the idea of a liglitnln
rod. That there schoolhouse was built
13 years ago, and durin tliein 13 years
we've had 72 thunderstorms. If she's
dodged 72, why can't she dodge 200?
Why ean't she keep right on dodgin till
she tumbles down of old ago? Forty
dollars fur a liglitnln rod means more
taxation. Tliar's sieh a tiling as an
emporium of education, hut thar's also
sicli a tiling as an emporium of taxa
tion. Jericho is out of debt and no
one klekin, but let the baud of ex
cessive taxation clutch her throat, and
j how long would it take to struugle tlie
life out of her? I'm askin you to
pause and ponder afore it is too late."
| "Silas, you've made a p'int and a
strong one," says tlie deacon when tlie
applause has subsided. "If the school
house has dodged 72 thunderstorms,
tliar's no reason to tliiuk she won't
keep up the record. Yes, It's a p'int,
and liiebbo tlie liglitnln rod man would
like to answer it."
"I don't tliinlc much of tlie p'int,"
says tlie man as he gits up ng'lu.
"Tliar's 80,000,000 people in these Unit
ed States, and because none of 'em fell
down stairs last year It don't fuller
that a heap of 'em won't tumble down
this year. I've known a man to go on
dodgin a mule's heels fur 10 years nud
then git 'era both In the stomach at
once. Mebbe your sclioollionse will
dodge a hundred more thunderstorms,
aud mebbe we will sknsslv bev sought
our virtuous couches this night before
a thunderbolt as big as a bar'l will go
drivln through her nud leave nuthin
hilt a heap of splinters to mark tlie
spot where your emporium of educa
tion once reared its proud roof to the
blue vaults of heaven. I said S4O to
tlie town board today, hut in order to
show my Interest in the cause of edu
cation and to prove to you that my
baud Is ever stretched forth to uphold
tlie prestige of a nation of freemen
I'll make the price $38."
"He's made a p'int, gentlemen—he's
made a pint," says the deacon as lie
whacks on the stove and looks around.
"Yes, sir, when he talks about our
sclioollionse rearin it's proud roof to
tlie blue vaults of heaven lie's made a
p'int, niul I'm more favorable to tlie
lightniu rod tliau I was. I think this
crowd would like to hear from Enos
Williams."
"I'm with Silas Lapham," says Enos
as lie sliets up ills jaekknlfc and gits ,
liis feet under him. "I'm fur lettiu
sartin things dodge or bust. They
wanted to Insure tlie meetin house 24
years ago, hut my advice was to let
her dodge. Slie's tliar ylt. I've got a
barn 30 years old, and she's never had
a liglitnln rod or been Insured—jest
had to dodge or bust all these years—
nud she's tliar ylt Seventeen years j
ago, when I built my house, I put a
hell on tlie front door. Nobody has
rung that hell to this day. It would
he tlie same If we put a liglitnln rod
on the schoolhouse—you wouldn't see a I
thunderstorm nround here fur the next I
15 years. I'm all right on the empo
rium of education bizness, and I enn i
see that tliar sclioolhouse rearin it's
proud roof to tlie blue vaults of heaven
as plain as if It wasn't 0 o'clock at '
night, but I don't see no call to pay
out S3B. Let her dodge or bust!"
"Thar's a p'int thur, Enos—thar's a
p'int," says the deacon as he hits a
cracker bar'l with his cane. "Yes, sir,
thar's a good deal In your theory about
dodgiu. When all the cows around
here was hevin tlie lump Jaw, a feller
offered to protect mine ag'in it fur $3.
I said I'd let her take her chances, and
| she come through all right. I obsarvo
Moses Forbush among the audieuce,
and, as Moses built the fence around
tlie sclioolhouse, niebbe he's got sun
thin to say."
"I ain't ag'in liglitnln rods," says
Moses in his slow way—"l'm not ag'in
'em fur what they are. It 'pears to
me, however, tliat we'd better begin at
the bottom instead of tlie roof. Thar's
about 20 bogs nestin under the school
house, and thar's about 20 boles lu the
floor. I sorter like tlie idea of a liglit
nln rod, and I sorter like the Idea of a
new floor and drivln tlie lings out. One
idea sorter balances the t'other, and I
don't want to cast my vote either way,"
"You lievn't made a p'int," says tlie
deacon, "but nobody expected you to.
I take it, however, that you go lu fur
an emporium of education, boin you
got the job of bulldln the fence and
liev seven children goin to school."
"Yes, I think I do," replies Moses.
"I've alius felt that it was my duty
to uphold the Magna Charta of liberty,
and when It eouics to hoostin the
wheels of progress and civilization I'm
good to lift a tou."
It was then suggested that the liglit
nln rod man might want to say sunthin
more, and he went at It and made a
reg'lar Fourth of July oration. He pic
tured George Washington, John Han
cock, Thomas Jefferson nud half a doz
en more goin to school to learn how to
spell such words as "liberty," "free
dom" and "bulwarks." He pictured
them sehoolliouses hein struck by liglit
ulu fur tlie want of rods, and lie had
tears In Joali Warner's eyes in less'n
five minits. Then lie pictured the hap
py children of Jericho crowded Into the
sclioollionse on a summer's day.
Among them was future lawyers, doe
tors, editors, statesmen and poets.
They was drlnkiu In deep drafts of
education when a black cloud appeared
over Jim Taylor's barn, a rumble of
thunder was heard, and a minit later
a thunderbolt shot out nud struck the
sclioolhouse, and thar was a tragedy to
convulse tlie world. The town had
I saved S3B on a liglitnln rod, hut whnr
was the sclioolhouse, tlie schoolma'am
aud 44 scholars? Some was slioutiu
nud some was wiplu their eyes when
tlie man sot down, and after Deacon
Spooner had declared it the strongest
p'int lie ever heard he made ready to
put tlie question to a vote. Jest then
in comes Idsh Hillings, uuil the deacon
turns to him and says:
"Dish, we are hevin a meetin about
that liglitnln rod ou the sclioolhouse.
As you painted tlie bulldin iuebhe
you'd like to say sunthin. Aro you fur
it or ag'in it?"
"Neither one," answers Lish after
awhile.
"Are you stnndiu uoutral?"
"Not exactly."
"Then, how do you make it out?"
"Why, the darned old bulldlu fell
down about an hour ago of its own
self, and I don't reckon thar's any call
to waste any breath about the mat
ter." M. QUAD.
Talismans In Clllnn.
Tlie belief in the potency of charms,
etc., is very widespread among tlie low
er class Chinese anil the Shuns in parts
of Yunnan. The latter In particular
have all kinds of amulets to ward off
evil, tlie gem of their collection being
one which confers invulnerability on
the wearer. This useful quality may
also be obtained, I was informed, by
undergoing a very painful process of
tattooing. During iny trip I was Rliown
a "dragon's nost," which looked like a
lilt of tlie horsehair Stalling from a for
eign saddle, guaranteed to render the
purchaser's house safe from Are, anil a
"female deer's horn," which would ena
ble tlie fortunate owner to walk a great
distance without fatigue.
Not being a landed proprietor or a
professional sprinter, I had no use for
these tilings, and though I entered into
negotiations with several people for
the talisman which would render me
invulnerable none of them was willing
to stand the test of western skepti
cism—a revolver at 3U paces—even
though I offered tbum an enormous
sum and a handsome funeral In case of
accident.—Geographical Journal.
Tlie First \ntionnl Convention.
Wliut may lie culled the first national
convention was not held by cither of
tlie great parties. It was conducted
by what was known as tlie Anti-Ma
sonic party and was held in Baltimore
in September, 1831. Delegates attend- '
cil from every state (not chosen, how
ever, on a basis of electoral strength),
a president and vice president were
nominated, and a platform was adopt
ed. The Democrats held their first na
tional convention In Raltlmorc In May, j
1832, 313 delegates being present. AS I
tills year, tlie only contest was over I
the vice presidency, General Harrison
having a walkover for first place. His |
opponents convened in Washington and
named Henry Clay, 17 out of 24 states |
being represented. Since then uouii- I
listing conventions have been the rule.

Rhkr For the nininK Doom—A New
Device For Cleanlnir Kul rem— What
to lluve For Luncheon*
Every dining room should have its
rug. The quality of this rug must,
however, vary with the purchasing
power of the individual. Two things
ought to be remembered: The rug must
not be so thin that it rolls up with ev
ery chair that is drawn 'across it nor
so thick that no chair enn be drawn at
all. The rug may be laid over a bare
floor, a carpet, a tilling or a matting.
J Rugs made of pieces of carpeting,
' with a border, are never possible In
■ really beautiful dining rooms and aro
only to be considered when questions
of economy have to enter in. It must
not be understood by this that these
rugs are In bad taste, but simply that
they are a confession of weakness, as it
were, of the necessity of using some
thing which a salesman sometimes
tells you, "though cheaper, is exactly
as good as the other." Rugs of every
j kind are manufactured today.
The housekeeper has only to take the
i dimensions of her room, state what
price she can afford to pay and then
choose the best that comes within tlio
range. Rugs ought always to be lower
in color key than the rest of the room
I or they seem to jump up ut you and
make a most unpleasant effect.
Knife Cleaner.
The devices introduced to supersede
the old fashioned application of ashes
and water, with a liberal amount of
elbow grease, for the cleaning of
knives have assumed many novel
j forms. One recent device consists of
j two parts—a knife handle holder In
! which the handle is grasped between
i two rubber lined jaws, provision being
HOW TnE CLEANER WOIIKS,
made for handles of different sizes, as,
for iustnnce, table and dessert knives
and carvers, ami a cleaning device re
sembling two razor strops hinged to
gether at the cuds. These cleuners
j consist of pads mounted on wood and
' covered with canvas. In operation
some emery or other polishing powder
is applied to the cleaner, which is then
j closed and pulled backward and for

J it should be added, is rigidly attached
to the table or shelf.
TVhnt to Ifnve For I.uiiohron.
It is one of the easiest things in the
world to decide what to have for lunch
| eon in warm weather as well as in
j cold. For one tiling, says The Ilouse
i keeper, it doesn't so much matter what
j is served at that meal when the men of
the family are away. For another
thing, there are more appetizing lunch
eon dishes within easy reach than
there aro desirable dishes for the more
difficult dinner or the most difficult
breakfast. That first meal of the day
I is a veritable stumbling block of doubt
In the housekeeper's mind. One must
oat in spite of the fact that most things
seem too heavy for the morning meal
these days. The healthiest persons,
j the fact remains, are they who scorn
the solace of a mere roll and a cup of
j coffee and demand a reasonably hearty
: meal upon which to begin the day. Ad
vice about what to serve should prop
erly begin with that not to serve,
j Avoid heavy meats, such as beefsteak
j and fried ham, for the breakfast table
with tlie utmost care, and so far your
breakfast will be a success.
Tlie "I,idle Yellow Doclor."
; It Is at this season that the "little
yellow doctor," as the head of a large
sanitarium aptly dubs the lemon, finds
■ abundant appreciation by young and
| old alike. No summer drink Is more
wholesome or refreshing than plain
lemonade made of the pure juice of
die fruit and served Ice cold to the ac
companiment of tlie clink of ice against
the glass. An old Virginia cook whose
lemonade was pronounced perfection
always allowed a tablespoonful of sug
ar and a cupful of balling water to the
juice of each leuiou. A few bits of
the yellow yellow rind were usually
j steeped In Just water enough to cover
anil added to the big pitcher which
held the cooling drink. Sometimes,
yielding to tlie prayers of tlie children,
: pink lemonade showed Its color in the
glass, a result obtained by adding a
, little currant or raspberry Juice.
An IngenloiiN Arrangement.
An ingenious arrangement of pea
cock feathers lias been applied lately
to a plnuo back screen. The ends of
tlie feathers are cut off and lapped
ever one another, so as to represent the
plumage of the bird's breast. All tlie
greens are cut away, nud tlie bronze
colored parts of tlie feathers only are
left, so that a rich Iridescent effect Is
produced. The feathers are sowed on
a soft stuff material, so as not to lie
too flat and even. With the green parts
of the feathers one or two butterflies
are made and fastened loosely on the
bronze giound. The bottom fringe is
made of tlie loug thin parts of the
feather, near its root, and are fastened
on the screen fts an ordiuary silk
fringe.
