IN PASSING. Gaily decked bushes of autumn's tint, Red with the wanr.th of euipmer's passing flame, Break into splendor, after shower's of rain, And these are Joys. Dark, melancholy brown of gaunt, dead limbs. Flung ghoat-like, from the bitter tree of life, Cast shadows, as they fall, on the paths of strife, And these are sorrows. Sunlight and shadow, and twilight dim, The grayish myBtcry of birth and death, A hovering a pause a catch of beath, And life is done. Bertha Grace Robie. MARRIED SATURDAY.

Unfair Advantage. A school Inspector, examining a class in Bible history, asked, "Can any boy tell me what bird Noah let out of the srk?" There was a long silence, and then the smallest boy in the class put up his hand and answered. "Please, sir. a dove!" The inspector expressed bis surprise that only the smallest boy in the class knew the answer to the q'jostion. "But, please, sir," replied one of the boys, evidently touched by this reproach, "bis father keeps a bird shop!" London Telegraph. A Lesson In Pronunciation. "How do you pronounce that word 'divorcee, professor?" asked Mr. Slabsides. "Is it 'divorsay' or 'divorsee? " "That all depends, my young friend," smiled the professor.

A Parrot and a Rumt Cob That War Wall Providad Far. The making of queer wills is a subject prolific of good stories, and soma remarkable example are given by Virgil M. Harris in "Ancient.

This was contested, but was confirmed, as it was clear that the said George in owning the horse would have control of the money; also he would not be able to transfer or dissipate the cash for the simple reason that he would require the horse's consent, which would be difficult to obtain. Burma Pagedaa Art Reminder. Eight or nine miles below Mandalay. in Burma, the right bank of the Irawadi is hilly, and in the neigh borhood of the old Burmese town of i Sagaing the hills are dotted all over with pagodas. These are not temples, but are built by pious people as offer ings to the supreme power, it being generally believed that such acta of devotion count to the builders credit in the next world.

Wide World Magazine. The Marching Sang. No one knows the inspiration of a tramping song better than the soldier, and most regiments hare their favorite airs, which they love to yell when on march. The men of the Manchester regiment have a fine reputation for singing on the march, and two of their favorite songs are "Klllaloe" and "Brian Born," both of which give opportunity for some hearty shouts at Intervals. Similarly the Yorkshires, when route marching, enliven the way with "Dan Tucker," a song in which the words are of no account and the 1 tune a series of diabolical yells. Lon don Chronicle.
