LOAFING DE LUXE. Give me a country wild and free, A dash on the open plain, A pony that never needs the spur Or a tug at the bridle rein, And give me as well, if it's not too much, As I come from the trackless course To the sheltered cabin home at night A man to curry my horse. A lonely walk on a lonely trail With an old time silent guide, The mountain looming just ahead, ' Behind the plains flung wide. Oh, there is joy in that will, I vow, "Beat sailing in a tub If when we camp at eventide The guide will cook the grub! To follow through brake and brush The panting grizzly bear And after some exciting hours To track him to his lair Is pleasure only those may know - Who once the thrill have felt If one can have a good strong man To carry home the pelt. A camp far in the wilderness, And slipped the city's yoke, Where one need only doze and dream, Or sit around and smoke. As a retreat both sane and sweet This can't be praised too much To do the chores and such. If one can have a crew of men DINNER FOR GUESTS.

Walter Frichard Eaton, the dramatic critic, believes modern dramas are too elaborately staged. In "The Question of Scenery" in the American Magazine he says: "After all. It was not the Elizabethans who were stupid because they could enjoy the drama on a bare stage. It is we who are stupid because we cannot enjoy the drama unless the stage Is littered with 'realistic' scenery. We have no faith in our own imaginative powers. It would be a good thing for the drama if all scenery were abolished for the next ten years. Having learned to get along without It, we would perhaps keep It In Its proper place for awhile after It returned. Its proper place is as a pictorial and suggestive background to the actors and the play and nothing but a background." Ruined by Jesting. The Antiochenes themselves brought about the ruin of the beautiful city of Antioch, the ancient capital of the Greek kings of Syria. These people were famous for their biting and scurrilous wit as well as their Ingenuity In devising nicknames. When the Persians under Chosroes Invaded Syria in 538 the Antiochenes could not refrain from jesting at them. Ample revenge for this was taken by the Persians, who totally destroyed the city. Would Do His Own Biting. The British gentleman new to our shores stepped up to the cigar counter imd requested of the "dark" a cigar. "What will you have, a bit cigar?" asked the "clark." "No; I'd rawther bite it myself," replied the Briton. San Fraacieco Chronicle. Men Are Beacons. Rvcry man Is the center of perpetual radiation like a luminous body.
