The doe, egft brown eyes aglow with love, tread lightly, daintily over the soft brown leaves. Hesitating a mo ment, she threw back her shapely head, but acented no danger, scented only the sylvan fragrance of the cooling vephyra —she continued upon her love mission. Tho winter threw across his shoulder the cold steel barrel of his gun. "Now for some real sport," hj said. The doe sped on through the forests on the wings of love. She had heard the call of the hart, recognised it—how beautiful was the.forest, how clear the streams, hotv bright the sun, how blue the skies—she recognised the call of the hart and her blood pulsed with the pure sweet ecstacy of first love. The hunter,' with gun across his knee, sat resting. Slowly he took from his mouth the smoking pipe, placed It be side him, leaned, forward and llatened. He whistled a low whistle./' The doe heard through the woodland maze the aoft notes. She quickened her pace to,match the quickened beats of her pulse. Straight toward the hunter she ared. The hunter stood, gun at atm. Tho crackling of twigs came closer. The nearby bushes parted. A beautiful pair of soft brown-eyes reflected the glint of flame, then for ever closed. The hunter hurried toward the place where lay the doe. He looked down on her— . "Fashioned so slenderly. Young and so fair.” She was too small, too young. He turned away In quest of other ganje. The hart far up In the mountains whistled until nightfall, then went In quest of the one he was to wed. i Through-the moon-lit woodland he made his way. Many hours he searrh. ed until finally he came to the spot who re lay the doe. --*■* lie looked down upon her. "She has jjnawei'fd <!>*• call ■>( another?) he said. "Made no scrutiny Into her mutiny, but only said: fRash and undutlful!" lie saw not that she •Waa "Fast dll dishonor, Death had left on hsr Only the-beautiful." He cared not. She was no more. H» went his way. . And as he went the skies grayed. The forest looked down upon him and for the hart's heartlessness blushed. The autumnal leaves turned the tint of the rising suh. ' And so It Is. Once a yew the leaves of the forest* blush for the sins and wrongs of the anttniliiof the earth. A human l*y tin* name of Hue.

A summsr which will forever stand forth, tn the Zoo- vllle annals as paramount In' the matter of enorm ous Improvements has passed, the fall Is coming to a. close, and, as Is b e fl 111 n g every animat Instinct, thoughts turn to the long sleep of the good old win ter time. The Monks have their home, snug ly built and heat ed throughout, as If by some tropi cal sun. with the clever devices known as steam. Tbe 'Gators have their borne and tempered waters will lull them through the cold weather of the winter. Holy Moses, as meek as they make 'em, has his home and will hump himself Into -the arms of old Morpheus. The equities have plenty of fresh mown lmy, to re mind them that the hackney sum-' mer Is o'er, ami they, p.an now while away the hours amid the shock*'of fodder. The .zebus has his. home arid will be In the xentth of his delight. The birds are In their dear little bird of a home, nnd will coo sway the long winter evenings beside a radiator. The lion has been lionised, as usual, and will not suffer. Tho elephant has parked his trunk The porcupine will pine no more. Ami everything Is pleasing ami only man is vile. Winter has come, and after Interviewing the animals, each of whom presented the editor with his picture, full name, age and ad dress (of course with the Instruc tion that they were not for the vulgar p ub lie to gaze upon),and all declared that they were ready to hibernate, dor- mlnate (meaning to get Into the dormitories) and to cometlcate (meaning to pre pare to come out tn the spring) as Is their . wonted custom. Special Instruc tions were given the editor not to forget to remem ber to thank the humans for fiiri amusement they furnished, so kindly, our Zoo- vtlle folk during the summer. “We have had many a good laugh at their peculiar wearing apparel," said the lnter-< viewed, "And their human w’ays- rind Imitations of the brutes they at tempt to copy." This was said In all good fellow ship and we hop* the human will continue to Im prove by watch ing and taking notes. “We will be de lighted to see you all again when the summer comes again. But dd.be careful not to be quite so human, for It is embar rass! ng some times." * Aneisnt History.

By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX. Dancing has always appeuled tn me as one of the most beautiful methods of expressing the poetry and Joy of It ranks In my mind with painting, sculpture, literature and music. I can recall but one American woman who has create# a new thing In any of the arts distinctly and exquisitely new, and that one—Lole Fuller, with iier wonderful fire and calla Illy dances. When "The Man" and I arrived In Paris It waa our Intention to see all that wns Interesting on the Jrcnch stage In the way of danejng, and to be amus-d, pleased, shocked or entertain ed. aa the result might be. One sultrv September night, nfter we hAd unpacked our trunks, we set out for a stroll down the boulevards, and. seeing many jieople enter a music hall ami purchase, tickets, we followed and obtained excellent seats from which we watched nn amusing farce and some special features, with only Idle curlo*- "Vhen suddenly we became alert. The unusual stage setting attracted our at tention, and we piocured a program and found that we were to see the mm ^Allaslxba. c and WHISKEY HABITS cured at borne with- aasrjsr vsssl ■■B. M. WOOLLEY, M. D. ». Office 104 N. Pnror f »rcrt* beautiful dance poem, The Rhada, cre ated. or rather evolved, by an American girl. Mis* Ruth'Dennis. Rer.lly Uplifting. I had heard much of this dance, but had never seen It, anti now, here In Paris, where I had expected to wltnest. only suggestive and risque dances, I was treated to one of the most delight ful enjoyments of my life In watching a wholesome and charming American girl float through her exquisite creation. The "Rhada" 1* a dance nnd a hymn, a prayer, a picture and an epic poem all in °ne. .. ... It affected "The Man" like a magic spell, and rendered him oblivious to all mundane thing*, even my .own pres ence, while it wns being performed. It filled him with a de»tre for a life calm contemplation and spiritual evolution. •Tt l* better than a sermon and great er than any sacred music ever sung or rdaved.*’ he said when it wus over. Which, is an unusual remark to hear, coming mt of a Parisian music and dance hall, surely. So Interested were we In this color ful and artistic creation that l asked Ml** Dennis to come nnd talk to me about Iter work. She came, and I found her a sweet, brave American girl, w ith marked intellectual development, born and bred out in Somerville. N. J., and devoted to the profession of her choice since early girlhood. Europe Thrilled. 8hc had dreamed of doing aoiuethlng distinctive, something worth while, ever since she could remember, and ho, with this desire always In mind, the "Rhada" nad been evolved after two years’ concentration and study. It all came about In a very simple, yet very wonderful way, and beenuae of her own deep earnestness and unswerv ing devotion to her ideal, and because she put tbe very best of herself Into her w’ork. The public was electrified by her finished creation when It was produced tn America. It was new’, It was poetlcnl, It war an appeal to the soul as well as to the eye. Now Kurope Is thrilled with it. It has been tremendously successful In Purls, nnd Berlin and Monte Carlo are clamoring for It. Kinir Edward has given his word of approval, and laurels are falling on the fair brow' of the slender American dancer, who becomes In her work the personifica tion of the spirit of the ancient religion of India, the religion which has de generated, as do nil religions eventual ly, but which In Its purity held tho es sence of all Truth, all Knowledge. So here Is anotter woman who l' 3 * created a new' think tn art. anti again In the rcnltn of Terrjdchpro.
