But ow thy voice, is hollow, like a knell. All hollow are the eyes at me that stare. All things are hollow, skeet, I too could yell, With cruel joy to see thy wan despair. Oh, bird of night I I What tossing hours of sorrow I have known Because the airy numbers of thy flight Piped a shrill tenor to my every groan. Look in my eyes nay, I cannot forget The restless spectre ot my summer dreams. The sleepless pillow j worry; care and fret; .

THE CAT. : i From the Detroit Vree JPreea' Natural Hlatory Serlea. i "What is this?" I ' : "This is a cat. Do you see the beautiful curve to his back? If you continue to be a good boy you shall some day have a thousand cats.'' "Arc cats a useful animal?" "Yes, very. If it wasn't for the e.-it every house would' be overrun with canary birds." "Are eats very brave?" ! "Y(ja. . They'll hang jarouncT a conitfr for four hours to: get their claws into a poor little mouse, not or-fourlh par? their size." "What food do cats prefer?" "A $20 mocking-bird is their first choice. If the family are not able to keep a mocking-bird the cat must put up with an oriole.. or a German canary. It ie wly when suffering for food that a cat will accept of a nirloiilsteak." ' f . , "Cats can't sing, can they?" . "No; but bless 'em! they keep try ing to iearn how.. They have got so itjy can sound the first four notes on the sealj, and they. are determined to gel the rest." i "What time do they sing their sweetest?" " .1 "At night, between the hours of 11 P. M. and 4 A. M. You s have pro bably read jtems about bold, bad men flinging boot-jacks, sticks of wood and other missiles at singing cats. Don't ever associate with; such peo ple. Cats have as much right in America as anybody else, and it is orrlythe meanest kind of i folks who will try to keep 'era from rising up in the world." "How long do cats live?" "Nobody knows, as no cat over had a fair show to see how many years he could put in. After he i has hung around one ncisbborhood; for 15 or 20 years some one, murders him in cold blood." . "Does the fur of the cat contain electricity?" . "Yes, aud it is a great wonder why Home ol those scientific men did not make use of the cat in . searching for the clue to. the telephone. There isn't much doubt that the day will yet come when a cat in Detroit, con nected by a clothes-line with one in Chicago, will form a complete tele- graph line. -i "Do cats suck children's breath?" "They do. Mothers should let their children eat onions as a. pre ventive. Plug "tobacco will answer the same purpose. ' liai Otber Female JTIaiton. - Charlotte Observer.
