I liko you, my bravo saucy Briton.
You'vo a way that has captured my heart;
And though others your fallings may twit on
I'm a friend that will e'er take your part
And os much as you wish you may sit on
My sill which you often have fit on
Singing “Cheer up! Cheer up!”
With a fervor much sweeter than art
Few people, I know, praise your singing,
And I own that your harsh vocal powers
Can't compete with the robin's voice riuging

I confess that the lark, upward winging,
And the bobolink's stiver throat flinging

And the window panes rattled with sleet;
When the heavens were gray .and twaa Snowing,
What beonmeof those visitors aweetf
When we needed them most, they were going,
But you staid, your stout heart overflowing
In that “Cheer up! Cheer up!”
Which I’ve heard you so often repeat.
Your enemies say you're a tighter.
Ah, well, what of thatt So am I.
1 will sing If ’tis darker or lighter, •
You have fought me a gay battle cry.
When Fortune's against me, despite her,
I will wail lor the days that are brighter,
Binging "Cheer up 1 Cheer up!”
IWIU fight and will amg till I die.

The Slberlau Mosquitoes.
During tho short summer the tem-
l>oraturo rises, rapidly reaching 50
degs. F.. But with the warm seasou
come tho mosquitoes, which are a
plague of these regions more difficult
to endure than cold. I never would
have believed that the insects could
appear in such swarms. They literally
darkened the light, filling the air with
an incessant noise, covering, as with
a black mantle, our horses, whose
flanks were soon bleeding all over.
Maddened with pain, tfie horses kicked
and reared, but seeing that all was un
availing, they dropped their heads and
submitted to the inevitable.
In vain we tried to protect ourselves
with veils, traveling, notwithstanding
the hot weather, in winter gloves and
overcoats. The mosquitoes penetrated
through the sleeves, under the shirts,
stinging the breast and the body,
which ached as if burned with fire.
The more we struggled to get rid of
our tormentors the more we opened
the wdy to thousands more of them.
On arriving at the huts of the Yakuts
we kindled a great fire, which made
such a smoke that it pricked tho eyes
and choked the breath, though we lay
stretched on the earthen floor. Tho
mosquitoes disappeared, but as soon as
the smoke dispersed a little new
swarms penetrated into the hut, cover
ing all of us thickly.- -Cor. Moscow
Russky Vedomosty.
Photograph* of Exploding Powder.
La.Nuture contains copies of two in
stantaneous photographs illustrating
the difference between a volley fired
with ordinary powder and with smoke
less powder. The pictures were taken
at the moment when the commander
gave the order, “Fire I” ’ In the first a
thick, black cloud of smoke is repre
sented, through which the gunners
are barely perceptible. Iq the second
photograph only a thin haze is ob
servable, which evidently would total
ly disappear in a second or two and
which probably would not be seen at
all from a short distance. The gun
ners stand out in the background
clearly and sharply defined.

A Sort o’ AecMcnt.
- -
A Sub man who was in the waiting
rooms of tho Erie depot, across the
river, the other day, came upon a
farmer looking man who was nursing
two or three skinned knuckles, and in
quired if an accident had happened.
“Sort o’ acoideut,” was the reply. "I
was siltin' here nbout half an hour
ago when a young feller camo along
and wanted me to go and look at a
trunk full of clothes that was to be
sold to pay the railroad charges. I'm
alius on the lookout for bargains, and
I went”
“Yes.”
“He rambled me up the street about
a block, and we met another feller,
who said he had got- to havo twenty-
five dollars right off quick, to save
some machinery from being sold.
With that I dropped to the gome."
“Confidence.”
“Exuctly. I kinder looked lamblike,
ho woven, and when number ono said 1
could perhaps loan number two tin
rhino, and tnko a check for a hundred
dollars on the bank, I reached down
into my pockot, as if to got tho spoil
dulicks.”
“I see."
"But I didn't git it. I scraped to
gether a handful of dry lino cut ter
backer, shot tnv (1st up tight, and
when I pulled it out I swung for No.
2's nose, and landed liko u ton ol
brick, lie went a-tumblin' into the
mud, and 1 turned on No. 1. Ho had
slid—dusted out of sight liko a rabbit
a gittin* for homo ahead of sixteen cur
dogs.”
“And what became of tho ono you
hit?”
“Lyin’ right there yit unless the po
lice havo taken him away. When 1
left, five minutes ago, ono of thorn had
his head popped up, and the other was
a askin’ him what sort of u wagon run
over him, and he was a-sayin that he
wanted to bo taken homo to his
anxious mother. I sort o’ calkcrlate
them two won’t bother ino agin—not
until after tho plantin’ time is over and
I let rny fall whiskers grow.”—New

Bismarck a* an Organ Grind nr.
Priueo Bismarck was ono day pass
ing through tho royal palace at Berlin,
when he entered a room iu which the
young princes were merrily romping
and dancing to the music of a barrel
organ. The youngsters insisted that
Prince Bismarck should stay and
dunce with them. “I am too old,’
said the stiff and stately septuagenar
ian, “and really I cannot dance, but
if the crown prince will dance I will
grind the organ." The barguin was
at once struck. Tho crown prince
joined his two brothers, and Prince
Bismarck ground away merrily at the
organ while the children danced on
in high glee. In the midst of their
mirth the door opened and the young
kaiser entered. Ho smiled to see the
redoubtable Reichskanzler grinding
the barrel organ, and, after a word of
greeting to his sons, he observed in
mock displeasure to Prince Bismarck,
“You begin in good time to make the
heir apparent dance to your piping.
Why, this is the fourth generation of
Hghenzollerns to whom you devote
yourself 1”—St. James Gazette.
Scratching Ills Wooden Leg.
A good story is told on Justice Me-
Dounell by some of his friends. John
ny has a wooden leg, and one evening
recently while standing near tho cor
ner of Fiftli and Hampshire streets,
tho friends standing there witli him
were surprised to see him raise his
wooden leg und scratch it. When
his friends related the fact McDouuoll
denied the story, but three of his
friends insisted that ho did scratch
his wooden leg, and the preponder
ance of evidence being against tho
justice, the reporter decided against
him, and held that Justice McDonnell,
during a temporary aberration of
mind, did scratch his wooden leg.—

PrepOHterous.
The word preposterous is literally
applicable to a state of things in which
the natural order is reversed, os when
the cart gets before the horse.
“Have you seen a wolf and u pack of
dogs pass this way?” asked a hunter of
a farmer.
“That’s what,” answered tho funner;
"and gee whiz, wa’n’t they goin’,
though I”
“Good! How were they making it?”
“Wal, when they went by here the
dogs was a leetle ahead.”—Youth’s
Companion.
An Oriental Manuscript.
The library of Cornel] university
possesses an oriental manuscript writ
ten on palm leaves, consisting of 195
strips or leaves, each seveu by one by
a quarter inches, fastened together by
a cord passing through a hole in the
center of each leaf. The writing is
done on each side of the leaves by
etching the characters with a sharp in
strument on the palm leaves, which
have been afterward rubbed over with
a black pigment.—Exchange.

The wives of the Arabian shepherds

supply them with food.—Dry Goods
