He saw with loving eyes the willows of the meadow streams mow red beneath the glance of spring the grass along he marsh's edge the stir of life beneath the withered leaves the moss below the drip of snow the flowers that give their bosoms to the first south wind that woos--the sad and timid violets that only bear the gaze of love from eyes half closed the ferns, where fancy fnrmc witVi hilf, n Rino"lf nlnn the

and the cowslip's gold. As in the leafless woods some tree aflame with life stands like a rapt poet in the heedless crowd, so stood this man among his fellowman. All there is of leaf and bud, of flower and of fruit, of painted insect life, and all the winged and happy children of the air that summer holds beneath her dome of blue, were known and loved bv him. He loved the yellow autumn fields, the golden stacks, the happy homes of men, the orchard's bending: boughs, fhe sumach's Hags of flame, the maples with transfigured leaves, the yellow beech, the wondrous harmonies of brawn and gold the vines where hang the clustered spheres of wit and mirth. He loved the winter days, the whirl and drift of snow, all forms of frost- -the rage and fury of the storm, when in the forest, desolate and stripped, the brave old Lino towers green and grand prophecy of spring. He heard the rvthmic sounds of nature's busy strife, the hum of bees, the songs of birds, the eagle's cry, the murmur oi the streams, the sighs and lamentations of the wind and all the voices of the sea. He loved the shores, the vales, the crags and cliffs, the city s busy streets, the introspective, silent plain, the solemn

splendors of the night, the silver sea ol dawn, tne evening's clouds of mol ten gold. The love of nature fre d this loving man. Trom Robert G. Ingersoll s fh rlpntii nf HenrvWard Beecher.

Youngest Son of the Prsldnt Evl dently Has No Wish to ahln In Reflected Glory. President Taft tells a story about Charity, his youngest son, which illustrates the fact that he is a real American boy and give his father a little pardonable pride. Charley is just in long trousers and home from school for the holidays. He shirks none of the responsibilities of being the son of a presideni, but does not seek the limelight. Charlery was a gcst Rt a party of girls and boys of his own age, and had been seated at table beside a little miss who failed to catch hia name and did not recognire him. They became sufficiently interested in each other to mako her wish to know his name. "What is your name?" she propounded frankly. "Charley," was the somewhat limited information which she roocived. This satisfied the little girl for a time, but Charley is a winsome boy and her interest grew. So ab pursued the inquiry furthor by arirlng: "Where do vou live?" "On Pennsylvania avenue," was the answer to this. It was true, for the White ITouso is located ou'lhis thoroughfare. "What does your father do If pursued the young lady in a further ättempt to place her escort, to which Charley naively replied: "Oh, he lias a political position here in Washington." It was from her hostess that the young, lady finally learned that the had ben sitting with the son of tha president. MRSTERPltUE, ANYWAY

Why All Business Men Should Advertise! The business menwho can do without some form of publicity to make known their work or their wares are scarce indeed. There is just about one excuse for not advertising, and that is simply that the business is already as big as the man at its head.

The recently invented Benet-Wer-cier gun combines the rapidity of fire, range nnd effectiveness ot a machine gun with the lightness and action of a magaxine rifle. The gun is fired from a rest and held against the shoulder of its operator, who can either fire from a sitting position or lying prone. Tho regulation cartridge is used in clips that hold 50. A good rifleman can discharge from 300 to 600 shots per minute, if assisted in feeding by a man -to fill the clips.
