They nestled in his saffron fur A s cozy as you please. The canine's cognomen was Jim, The insects name was legion; Their favorite resting-place on him Was in the lumbar region. The fleas they stuck to this here dog; The dog stuck to his master As close as bark upon a log Or as a porous-plaster. Things got so bad at last that Bill Brought home some poison stuff. The druggist said 'twould kill the fleas If they but took enough. The fleas they ate that poison up And died in great distress. Alasl when they were gone the pup Died too, of lonesomencss. So now Bill Johnson has no cur, The cur he has no fleas. The moral is, as you'll infer, That dogs are hard to please. Judge. I,ove la Blind. What color are her eyes ? What shade ? You ask; but I could never tell. They're just her eyes, and God ne'er made Another pair of eyes so well. Hair gold or brown? Well, this I know, To think on't is my chief delight No sun in summer time doth glow, Nor moon at night gleam half aB bright. Lips red? What! Seest thou not her kiss? God knows my senses cease to be; If I but dream anon of this I'd die for the reality. Each night I vow to stand apart And learn to name her every charm; But long before she comes my heart Ib -sounding in a wild alarm. And at a bound I'm by her side, Ah, far too close to recognize Aught but the welcome quick implied, The loving laughter in ber eyes. Chicago Tribune. A MODE11IV PHOVMB I,ate to Bad and I.ate to RUe Makes Progressive American. Late to bed and late to rise, makes a man a healthy and progressive American, and therefore the best there is, says John A. Scott, professor of Greek at the North western university. He declares that the night workers are the most brainy peo ple, because the conditions for the best results are ripe in the dark hours, either green or about to decay in the early sun light, and inclined to stupor when the glaring light of day is at its height. He says the brain of man, having been nour ished by the food of the day, is ready for its best work along after sunset, and gets tired as it approaches the next sunrise. Therefore the work which counts for the most is done in the few hours before and after midnight. He claims that the hu man race has made the most of its prog ress since it had decent artificial light ; some with the candle, more with the oil lamp, and more still with the gas light, but the climax came with the electric can dle. The past 50 year,s have known more material progress than all the other years, and they have been the best lighted years. Man began with light, and the better the light for his work, the smarter man will be developed, because he can work when his brain is capable of the best thought Worcester Telegram. An Unintentional Offence. The young woman stenographer of the comic papers chews gum with such assid uity that it is easy to see how the little misapprehension arose which the New York Evening Post places to the credit of a publisher's private secretary, a young woman who takes her profession with becoming seriousness. Next door to the publisher's establish ment a young Englishman, striving with moderate success to establish himself in this country as a landscape architect, had opened an office. In due time he became acquainted with the publisher, who, in turn, introduced him to the private secretary. One day, when the private secretary was sitting serene and dignified at her desk, the Englishman entered precipi tately. "JIow do you do?" said the young wo man, with just the proper degree of for mality. "I beg your pardon," said the English man, "but could you spare me just a little of your gum ?" . "My gum !" she exclaimed, startled out of her repose. Surely you don't think I" "Really, I beg your pardon," said the Englishman, in still greater embarrass ment. "How stupid of me ! I remember now in America you say mucilage." GUESTS RELUCTANT TO Spring's Beauty and Charm will Keep Many Here Until June.

A story is told in the Boston Herald which illustrates in an amusing fashion the quick growth of a crowd in a large city, and the morbid curiosity which im pels people to push and jostle one an other in the attempt to get us close a view as possible of the victim of an accident. A few days ago a crowd of excited per sons was gathered on the sidewalk about the doorway of a large department store, while some, in mad haste to see what caused the excitement, pushed into the interior. Three of the employes were slowly bearing a limp form in gorgeous silks to to the rear of the store, while the eager throng crowded forward to get a glimpse of the covered face. Many were the questions put to those in charge : "Did she have a fit?1' "Was she taken suddenly ill ?" "Did she fall ?" The crowd became more dense and questions more numerous. There seemed to be no solution of the mystery. The men who were carrying the helpless vic tim seemed entirely oblivious of the throng. The end came suddenly, however, when an appeal was made to the fioor-walker. "That ? Oh, that's nothing but a dum my form which they have just taken out of the show-window," he said. fp "lllp Van Winkle" Slumbers. Mr. Joseph Jefferson once played "Rip Van Winkle" in a Western town. In a hotel where he stayed, says an exchange was an Irishman who acted as porter and general assistant. Judged by the interest he took in the house, he might have been clerk, lessee and proprietor rolled into one. At about six o'clock in the morning Mr. Jefferson was startled by a violent thump ing at his door. When he struggled into consciousness, and realized that he had left no word at the ollice to be called, he was indignant. His sleep was spoiled for that morning, so he arose and soon ap peared before the clerk. "See here !" he demanded, "Why was I called at this unearthly hour?" "I don't know, sir," answered the clerk. "I'll ask Mike." He summoned the Irishman, and said to him, "Mike, there was no call for Mr. Jefferson. Why did you disturb him?" Taking the clerk to one side, the Irish man said in a whisper : "He was shnorin' like a horse, sor, and Oi'd heard the b"ys say he were onct af ther shleepin' twinty years. So, I say to mesilf, says Oi, Mike, it's a c-coomin' onto him agin, and it's yer juty to git the man out o' yer house this instant.' "
