that he cares nothinz about the

doing much bitter feeling is aver

Tne Woes ot Jane.
Brooklyn Eagle.
A dear little boy whose winter
home ia in the Orange in New Jer
sey and whose summer home is at
Glen Summit, Pa , but whose iden
tity shall not be further disclosed,
attended a dame school last winter
and, on an occasion when visitors
were announced, took part m exer
cises in their honor, The exer
cises comprised recitations by the
brighter children, and among'them
this dear this little boy was called
on. He recited in perfectly good
faith the following, which he had
learned or caught from an indul
gent nurse with semi poetical in
stinct :
"Jane ate cake and Jane ate jelly;
Jane went to bed with a pain in her
Now don't get excited,
Don't be misled,
For Jane went to bed with a pain in
her head."
When the youngster told of this
to his entirely surprised aud)som6
what shocked parents they asked
him :
"What did the teacher say?"
He replied :
"She said nothing. She just
turned around, looked out of the
window, but tho scholars and the
visitors wanted me to say it
again."

The best thing about a girl is

graceful and up-to date she is in

she cannot be admired. ' 1
A sunny little body, who is frail
m health and has had sorrow that
would make any other blue and
pessimistic, is the soul of good na
ture, and extends her cheerfulness
to each member of the family by
her sunshiny ways, exciting in all
a feeling of admiration and lov6.
Perhaps it is her natural disposi
tioD, but it is surely a quality that
can be cultivated Lantern.

the belief that he is James Lowry,
who killed the chief of police of
Shelby, last year;
The negro gave: his name as
James Taylor, but his appearance
corresponds very olosely with that
of Lowry, even to a missing tooth
and a birth-mark. If this turns
out to be the negro wanted the
chief will get $500 reward offered
by the State and city. ' .

tor tne press.
r The greatest need of cur country
is moral power. Our military and
unsocial power to-day far exceeds
our moral power. This is certain
l y dangerous for our prosperity.
yur present pouoy in tne rnillip
ines is the most degrading and
cruel act that ever stained our re
cords. Would our administrators
attempt to bring to life the dead
policy of ruling a people for their
trade, we are spending millions of
dollars for worse than nothincr.
Only to be lewaided with dishonor
and remorse of conscience. We
have .sacrificed Monro Doctrine,
and have disregarded the rights of
a helpless people.
Let ns return to the principles
of a Republic, by electing men
who will rule after such principles
taat will keep our country from
moving towards an Empire.

The Brother in the Home
Sunny South.
The.true companionship and
friendship of sister or brother is
sometning for which all girls
should strive in their home life.
The ability to interest and enter
tain brother, to win his confidence
and affection and to keep it should
be appreciated by sistors as, un
fortunately, is often not the case.
t is au eay matter to entertain
some other girl's brother, and a
task which every human girl en-
oys. The influence for good is
evident in many of such instances
but the plea here is made for the
girls own brother. If he is-musical
ask him terns rainy evening to
sing you eom) college songs. If he
3 fond of games, offer to play with
nim. if be cares for reading, sug
gest some interesting book to him.
and then either read or discuss it
together. There are innumerable
chances for companionship be
tween brother and sister in a fam
ily and the relation is as sweet as
it is helpful to both.
The Ten CoirmanJments for Mar
ried Folk.
A cheery, handsome Baltimore
wife says that every married pair
may be aa happy as herself and
her ''Frank" by observing the fol
lowing rules, which she calls -'The
Matrimonial Ten Command
ments." Let each allow the other
to know eomethiug Let the hus
band frequent his home after busi
ness hours, allowing his latch key
to gather rust through disuse. Let
them be aa courteous to each other
as they were before marriage. Let
the husband appreciate the wife as
Mb best partner and therefore con
fide in her. Let each assist in
beautifying the home. Let her not
worry him with petty domestic
troubles. Let her not fret because
Mrs, Neihlor has a sealskin or
hires a servant. Let her make
home more pleasant than the club.
Let her dress as tastefully for him
as for strangers. Let her sym
pathize with him in business and
be as wisely saving of his earnings
as possible. To this add the good
old rhymed adyice and let it ap
ply to both :
"Be to his faults a little blind;
Be to bis virtues ever kind."
Success In r allure.
"What is failurt? Nothing but
education. ; nothing but the first
8t-ti to something better." It is
evil only when it turns us aside
from duty ; and even then the evil
is found not in the mistake or
failure, but in yielding to it.
A young art student, who had
just finished a picture, declared,
with tears in her eyet, that it was
"another awful failure"! Just
then the instructor, seeing what
Bhe had done, took a brush and
palette, and put a few quick strokes
of light here and there; and lo'
the "failuie" was a thing of beauty.
The young woman learned to put
the finishing touches to her owu
"failures," and they won prize
after prize.
There are many failures which
are but unfinished successes.
Wherever you go, men will tell you
that their greatest achievements
are the golden crowns, . built by
perserance, on pyramids of seem
ing failure. Edison Driver.
A Definition of a Christian.
A little girl had a great desire
to join the churoh; consequently
she went to the minister, asking to
bo received into the church. He
inquired it she had experienced a
chango of heart, and she answered,
Yes."
'Were you a sinner before?"
Yes." "Are you a sinner now?"
Again she answered, "Yes."
"Where, then, is the difference
between your former and present
condition?" After some moments'
meditation she said, "Before I was
converted to Christ I, was a sinner
that runs after sin; now I am a
sinner that runs away from sin."

What He Wanted to Say.
Frankfort (KanORevlew.
A few days ago Mr, Taylor was
absent from his drug store for a
tew minutes and left his wife in
charge. A large Norweigian who
spoke English with difficulty en
tered and said :
"Hi owe de firm 10 cents."
'Very wel,' replied Mrs. Taylor,
"jast pay it to me and it will be
all right."
The Norwegian made no attempt
to produce tha coin, but gazed
steadily at Mrs. Taylor and re
peated :
"Hi owe de firm 10 cents,"
' "Yes, I heard you say that be
fore. Now. if you are afraid I will
give you a receipt for it."
In astonishment the man from
Norway looked at her and walked
out without a word. Pretty soon
he returned with a fellow country
man whose command of English
was a little better and who inter
preted the remark to Mrs. Taylor
by explaining: 'He wants 10
cents worth of iodoform."

1845 was appointed clerk ia the
United States Treasury Depart
ment in Washington. He served
in the Mexican War from 1846 to
1848, was breveted major for gal
lant conduct and made captain in
the Second Cavalry in 1855, but
resigned in 1856. When ' the re
mains of the - Kentucky soldiers I
whrrfell at Beuna Vista in 1847
were removed to their native State
O'Hara wrote for the occasion his
famous poem, "The Bivouac of the
Dead." Lines from the poems are
inscribed over the entrances of
several of the national cemeteries.
He was a colonel i 1 the Confeder
ate Army, and after the war settled
in Georgia. He died in Bullock
county. Alabama, June 6. 1897.
His remains, by act of the Ken
tucky Legislature, were removed to
Frankfort, to rest with those of
his comrades. 1
The muffled drum's sad roll has beat
The soldier's last tatoo;
No more on life's parade shall meet
The brave and fallen few.
On Fame's eternal camping- ground
Their silent tents are spread. .
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouae ef the dead.
Nor rmmor of tha foe's advance
Now swells noon the wind :
Nor troubled thought of midnight
haunts.
Of loved ones left behind;
No vision of the morrows strife
The warrior's dream alarms ;
No braying horn or screaming fife
At dawn shall call to arms.
Their shivered swords are red with
rust,
Their plumed heads are bowed:
Their haughty banner, trailed in dust.
Is now their martial shroud.
And rplentuous faneral tears have
waahnrl
Tho ntrl araina frnrr. arh hrntr
And the proud forms, by battle gashed,
Are free from anguish now.
The neighing troop, the flashing blade,
The nuzzle a stirring blast,
The eharge, the dreadful cannonade.
The din and shout are past :
Nor war's wild note cor dorr's peal
8hall thrill with fierce delight
Those breasts that never mors may feel
The rapture of the fight. -
Like the fierce northern hurricane
That sweeps the great plateau.
Flushed with the triumph yet to gain,
Come down the serried foe,
Who heard the thunder of the fray
Break o'er the field beneath.
And knew the watchword of the day
Was '- Victory or Death !"
Fall many a norther's breath has swept
Orer Angostura s plain,
And long the pitying sky has wept
Above its moldered slain
Mhe raven's scream, or eagle's flight,
Or shepherd's pensive lay,
Alone awakes each sullen height
That frowned o'er that dread fray.
Sons of the Dark and Bloody Ground,
Ye must not slumber there
Where stranger steps and tongues re
sound Along the heedless air.
Your own proud land's heroic soil
Shall be your fitter grave;
She claims from war bis richest spoil
. The ashes of her brave.
Thus neath their parent turf they
rest,
Far from the gory field,
Borne to a Spartan mother's breast
On many a bloody shield ;
The sunshine of their native sky
Smiles sadly on them here.
And kindred eyes and hearts watch by
The heroes sepulcher.
Rest on, embalmed and sainted dead !
. Dear is the blood you gave;
No impious footstep here shall tread
The herbage of your grave ;
Nor shall your glory he forgot
While Fame her record keeps,
Or Honor paints the hallowed spot
Where Valor proudly sleeps.
