THE POETS. 6 ye dead Poets, who are living -s still Immortal in your verse, though life be fled. And yet, O living Poets, who are dead Though ye are living, if neglect can kill, Tell me if in the darkest hours of ill, With drops of anguish falling fast and red From the sharp crown of thorns upon your head. Ye were not glad your errand to fulfill? Yes; for the gift and ministry of Song Have something in them so divinely sweet, It can assuage the bitterness of wrong; Not in the clamor of the crowded street. Not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, But In ourselves, are triumph and defeat. H. W. Longfellow.

Allen, long a resident there. The climax came on Monday, when he left the club altogether

Plaster Caats. Those who have ' plaster casts that they wish to preserve may protect them from dust by brushing them with a preparation of white wax and white soap, half a teaspoonful of each boiled with a quart of rain or other soft water. Use when cold, and when they are dried the casts may be wiped with a damp cloth without Injury. To harden casts brush with a strong solution of alum water and brush with white wax dissolved in turpentine. Put the cast in a warm place to dry after using the latter, and it will have a look not unlike that of old ivory.

FOR THE LITTLE MAID.

BONNET OP BLUE USCUT VXLVXT. This charming bonnet for a little girl has just arrived from Paris. It Is

made of blue uncut velvet, and against

the blue material are poised little roses made of white silk.

The bows at the side and streamer passing beneath the chin are effective

and graceful.

JUST A SUGGESTION.

The Working Girl's Home Life Should

Be Pieasant. The kindest, best intentloned of par

ents are often unconsciously neither kind nor fair to the daughter who is

a wage earner.

It is quite possible that her hours are longer, her work more trying than that of either father or brother, yet whereas nothing in the way of help is expected from them in their leisure hours the business girl is as often as not sup

posed to do a share of household du ties.

If no more active tasks are assigned

her she must do her own mending and probably a share of her father's and brother's, and whereas they will be pet

ted and pampered and generally sympathized with on their return from their more or less arduous labors it seldom occurs to any one that the working girl is probably infinitely more nerve racked and worn out than any man is likely to be. And all this happens because woman's work outside her home is seldom taken seriously by her own folk. They are ready enough to profit by 11 results for, indeed, the working gill's income is rarely her own, as her brother's is his but that its earning entitles her to the same ease and leisure it entitles the masculine breadwinner seldom dawns on home folks. This is obviously unfair.

James Rarsons, 1" North Fifth street, met with a painful accident

yesterday afternoon while cleaning the gasoline tank of his automobile.

Parsons had the tank removed from

the car and was cleaning it. After he

had washed the tank and dried it. ho lit a match at the oil entrance to see if the tank were clean. There was just enough gas in the tank to ex

plode and cause his nose to be badly

burned.

A Japanese Proverb. A Japanese proverb worth remember ing: "He who knows not and knows not that be knows not is a fool. Shun him. "He who knows not and knows that he knows not Is humble. Teach him. "He who knows and knows not that he knows is asleep. Wake biin. "He who knows and knows that he knows is a wise man. Follow him."

The Ladies Knew Each Other Even Before Their Introduction. There was a great crowd at the picture exhibition, and empty seats were at a premium, when two pretty women spied and made for a place at the selfsame moment. They reached the prise together, both pretending Ignorance of the other, and. flopping themaelvr down, succeeded in squeezing breathlessly and miserably In. There they sat then, each scowling and staring at the rudeness of her respective neighbor, each wriggling and squirming as much as possible In order to crowd that neighbor still further. Finally the situation became acute, and one ot the women spoke, with fine sarcasm. 1 beg your pardon, but do yon need the whole seat?" "I beg yours,' the answer came, "but I never talk to strangers. Just then a third pretty woman passed, stopped and addressed the two at once: "Why. to think of finding you two here together! And I have always wanted to introduce you, because I know you will Just love each other. Mabel, this is Maud, and Maud, this is my dear old Mabel. You are bound to love each other because you are bo exactly alike in disposition. New York Press.

BOARD WILL STOP PUBLIC NUISANCES The matter of burning leaves too near the curbing of the street has been reported to the president of the board ot works. In many places throughout the city, leaves have been burned too clese to the curbing which resulted ia cracking the stone curbing, which la ot white limestone, and will not stand deaL That the board of works meant business when it ordered the store and se loon keepers to stop throwing rubbisa in Elm Place is evident from the orders which President Kennepohl left at police headquarters for the arrest of the first violator.

The buttonhole In ones roat does not owe Its orijrtn to the once nnlv.

Smart Calling Costume. Now that the early fall days are here one is obliged to take up certain social duties, and among them is the afternoon call of a more or less formal nature. For this visit one wears a costume just a trifle more elaborate than the ordinary trotting suit The illustra-

The suit is of dark brown serge, and, by the way, brown is to be one of the leading colors this fall, with trimmings of black braid and buttons. The brown felt hat Is trimmed with brown and white feathers and a velvet bow.

Went Up Ahead. One of the girls at an examination in grammar school, when asked why the noun 'bachelor" was singular, blushingly answered. "Because it is very singular they don't get married." She went np to the head of the class.

SEE GOVT BULLETIN No. 148, BUREAU OF CHEMISTRY. A cup of coffee contains over 2l2 grains of Caffeine; enough in two cups to kill a rabbit. Of course this joke was on the rabbits. A goodly number of humorous Americans play the same joke on themselves and keep it up until some fixed form of disease sets in, as a result of the daily dose of Caffeine, in quantity enough to kill a rabbit, but only enough to

Not at one blow, but by little blows repeated daily. Of course some systems are strong enough to stand all kinds of abuse, but when a man or woman observes a growing nervousness, or heart trouble, stomach, bowel or eye disturbances, it is time to quit the daily dose of coffee and see if Nature will begin to heal. It is easy to shift from coffee to Postum. The food beverage has the deep, seal-brown color which turns to a golden-brown when cream is added. The flavour has the crisp tang so winning to the palate and the cup is made instanter by one struck spoonful of the powder,
