THE WHISTLER.
I know & lad of blithesome mood,
HU age is three limes three:
I cannot say he’s always good.
Or yet from ujisehief free:
But let the day be cold or hot.
The sky be blue or gray;

Of all the lads beneath the sun
i do believe today,
lie hales Uie worst that jblly one
Who whistles at his play.
Then whistle on. my cheery chap.
In artless, honest pride.
For who can toll what dread mishap
Vour tune may turn aside?
Eat h sturdy youth. 1 wish you Joy,
The grave as wt’l as gay;
But for my own (five ine the boy

Borne think because growing old,
The world Is aging loo.

And wnil 11 fui‘1 yqting ’twill stay
As long Whistle aa cheery boys are grown
To ftf their filay.

An Or»'g'»i Farmer 1 * Scheme for Flying.
A Walla Walla “farmer” writes that
he thinks the now fangled flying ina
cltines he roads so much about in the
ptipers are too expensive to bo of any
practical u a He suggests the “training
of ducks, geese, sea gulls or other birds
not heavy in body, but rapid flying;
make a very light rack or open plat¬
form of bamboo rods, hitch the fowls
to the name in some way that the
legs and wings would be free when fly¬
ing, which could be easily done, then
have a basket fastened beneath the
bamboo rack. Tho weight in all would
not be over fifteen pounds.
“Now, say the game selected for this
purpose eaeii can lift its own weight
{two pounds), of course it would require
100 fowls in order to lift the weight of
a person (150 pounds), including the
material. Now, if game could be
trained 1 1 have no doubt it can),
some prof - or might work it up. It
would not cost 810,000; no steam or
fuel are required. If some one should
make it work, I hope his llrst trip will
be to Walla Walla; if not, he won’t be
tout much, because the game ought to
sell for some figure. But you know the
power is there, and it is about the only
way 1 see flying could be made possi¬
ble.”—Port land Oregonian.

Hamlin's Lore for New England.
There have been few public men of
whom so many good stories have been
told as are told of Hannibal Hamlin.
His was one of those sturdy, outspoken,
independent natures that was bound to
make the life of its possessor replete
with incidents characteristic of the
man. The epigrammatic answers made
by the ‘ Old Carthaginian" during the
course ,f his life would make a most
interesting c< >!lection if they could be
brought together.
“What can you grow here?" inquired
a distinguishedEnglish agriculturist of
him one day as they were traveling
along the rockbound coast of Maine.
“We can raise men here,” was the
proud response of the sturdy son of the
Pine Tree state.
. The old man was a most sincere be
liever in New England and its institu¬
tions. He regarded the old states tis
the balance wheels for the rest of the
country. In one of the finest speeches
he ever delivered in congress he said in
an iin pa-boned bur-t of eloquence: “1
glory in New England and in New Eng
land's institutions. There she stands,
w ith her free schools and her free la
bor, her fearless enterprise, her indomi¬
table energy; with her rocky hills, her
torrent streams, her green valleys, her
heaven pointed spires—there she stands,
a moral monument around which the
gratitude of her country binds the
wreath of fame, while protected free
dom shall repose forever at its base.”—
New York Times.
The I)og anti the Hell.
That dogs become quite attached to
other things than men and places is
clearly proved by the conduct of Will
Thornton’s pointer dog Leo. Before
the Thornton House was burned Leo
made that hotel his headquarters, and
always appeared there regularly at
meal times to be fed. Several weeks
after the burning of the hotel the bell
which had been used on the Thornton
House was placed on the Weston
House, and the first time this bell rang
after its removal Leo was seen to run
over to the Weston House, where he
showed unmistakable sig^s of joy at
the familiar sound of the bell. He had
never shown any fondness for any per¬
son at the Weston House, and the fact
that he has deserted his owner and
taken up at the new place since the
first day the bell was put up proves be¬
yond a doubt that his attachment for
the old beil caused him to change his
residence.—Talbotton (Ga.) New Era.
Tint! 1'ired Feeling.
He—And now that 1 have told you
of my love, what is the feeling with
which 1 inspire you? Oh, speak!
She—I don’t know what the feeling Is.
He (importunately) —What! Can
you riot tell me the difference between
liking and loving?
She—Yes; but it is not so easy to
distinguish between lassitude and ennui,
you know.—Life.
Mad a Long Ladder.
Little Dot (seeing some workmen on
a toll spire)—Oh, mamma, there go
some folks up to heaven.
Mamma—Heaven is a long wav
above that steeple, my dear.
Little Dot —I guess it is, ’cause they’s
taking a ladder up with them.—Good
News.
Billions of Matches.
Europe, continental and insular,
consumes 2,000,009,000 matches daily.
Assuming that each several act of igni
tion occupies the brief period- of one
second—and wo have reason to believe
it is rarely performed in a shorter pe
riod -it will be obvious to every ready
reckoner that 555,000 hours of eacli
successive day are spent by the inhab
itants of Europe in striking matches.
There is food for much speculation in
the fact that Europeans dispose of
nearly sixty-four years per day in scrap
ing tiny sticks tipped with some inflam
rnable composition. It is also interest
ing to learn that 400.000 cubic yards of
timber and 420,000 pounds’ weight of
phosphorous are in annual request for
the manufacture of the 730,000.000,000
matches used by Europe in a year.—
