Calmly and softly cnme a maiden so fair
A proof-sheet In our sanctum to ponder.
Lovely bright eyes and beauty so rare
Lifted the gloom like a wonder—
A hallowed grace swept over the place
Lit by the beams of an angel fare.
Inspired by thoughts in her pure, bright
mind
"Let me thank you" she said and started,
Lovely blushes and smiles and words to
kind I
Years cannot erase, as we parted.

Burro Punching Profanity.
Hr his book “A Day With a Trami
unit Other Days” Wuttcr Wyckoff telti
the • following story of profanity am
burro punching in tho west: -
“The burros plainly shared the feel
Ing of rollof In reaching a more passu
bio region, and the art of burro punch
ing began consequently to disclose itt
difficulties.
“They were most difficult to manngi
nt tho fords. Generally they fcatterei
to the four winds at the first itpproacl
to water, and when we bad corralled
them again and forced them down tc
the brink they would stand calmly
planted nnklo deep In the stream, res
olutcly determined not to move.
“It was then that Price gavo vent tc
real profanity, and I am bound to owr
that It was effective. When beating
and prodding and the milder Invective
failed to urge the burros forward
Price would stand- back, palo witi
rage, and begin to swear, calling upon
nil bis gods and blasting the reputa
tion of his beasts unto' tho third and
fourth generation of their ancestors.
“By some subtle perception they
seemed to understand that this meant
business, nnd slowly at first, but pres
ently, as -though they rathbr enjoyed
tho water, they waded through and
started down tho trail beyond."
A small damsel of twelve who dis
liked boys wrote an essay upon thorn,
In which she said. “If 1 bad my way,
halt the boys in the world wonld be
girls and the otber.hsjf. jvp.uld be dolls."
Cruelty to Lobsters.
It is singular bow the cruel practice
of boiling lobsters alive continues. Our
forefathers —and Indeed onr parents
—let calves bleed slowly to; death, on
the theory that In no other way could
white meat be secured, and later on
calves were bled one day and killed tho
next Now, every one knows that a
calf can be killed In a humane manner
and the veal made just ns good. and.
goncrally speaking, animals killed for
food hove been put out of the way In
a much more humane manner than for
merly. But lobstera ore still tortured
but of existence, tho only difference be
ing that while formerly they were ex
clusively boiled to death/bow some nro
boiled and some are broiled. Which-
process causes the moat agony no one.-
can say.—Exchange.'
