Sine a book of snow-time
Now Its pasting by.
Minion little fleecy flakes
Falling from the sky ;
When the ground Is oovered,
And the hedge and trees,
There will be a gay time
For the chickadees.
Boys are In the echooUhouie,
Drawing on their slates
Pictures of the coasting-place,
And thinking of their skates;
Girls are nodding knowingly,
Smiling about,
Thinking of a gay time
When the school Is out.
Three o'clock, four o'clock,
Bang! goes the bell;
Get your bats and cloaks and wraps,
Hurry ofl pell-mell!
Bring along the coasters all
If you waut some fun ;
Up to the bill-top
Jump and slide and run !
Steady now ! Ready now !

Down on a race!
SInit a song of snow-time,
When the flakes fall;

The Ncwr Of Wrp.
Thirty thousand men swept away?
Thus comes the dirge from afar,
Thirty thousand on one dread day?
Tbls Is the news of war.
Thirty thousand desolate homes,
With wom'D and babes who weep,
Weep for the thirty thousand souls
Gone to their long, long Bleep.
Gone? Cut down without time for thought
Of the God whom they have to face,
With oevera friendly band to mark
Their lonely resting place.
Land Ib dear bought with the prlco of blood,
And the breaking of human hearts,
And heavy. Indeed, the price we pay
To heal a natltib's smart.
And lightly we deal but human life
To aid In a nation's greed,
A toll of thirty thousand Uvea
Laid down without thought of meed.
And one day's toll! That God's bright sun
Should rUeon such ghastly sight.
And men who own and bear His name
Do not rise In their moral might!
O meek and lowly Lord of Peace !
Whose "blessed" was great for those
Who sought to bring ease to the nation's
strife,
And an end to human woes.

The Furlj Dog Gets the Drink.
"The little cooper drinkingfountains
for dogs, put od the street corners at
bottom of lampposts," said the man
who stands all day at Fifty-ninth
street and Lexington avenue banding
out transfer tickets, "would be a tine
thing if the dogs got a chance to them,
They are attractive in appearance,
and are all right until freezing time.
They are too shallow for winter weather.
The dog fountains are filled every
morning by men from the Humane
society, and it is the early dog that
gets the drink. As soon as the car
rush begins, good by doggie.
"This fountain has been here just
one week. In that time I have seen a
man waiting for a crosstown car
spoil the dog's chance with a mouthful
of tobacco juice; then kids and
young men fill 'em up with cigarettes;
eeen women aDd girls throw orange
peel and apple cores into them;
matches are thrown into them by the
dozen. Before noon that dog fountain
looks like a email swill-pail. Dogs
prefer, the leakings of a fire hydrant
on tbe opposite corner.
"In summer the dog fountains will
be a blessing, but the people will have
to be taught that they are for the use
of dogs, not hogs."
Look lng Into tbe Future.
"I guess I might as well quit Bchool,

"Why, my eon V"
"Oh, there ain't any use going, except
to be able to help my little boy

changed the way of doing things
since you were a boy so that you can't
help me it's likely I'm just wanting
my time getting ready tt> help my little
boy."
He got the help be wanted, but it

Upper Long: Cane Cemetery.
EdltorPressand Banner:
In tbe Issue of your paper of tbe 24th Jan.
appeared a communication over tbe signature
of "Benex,'*In which he makes a futile
attempt to prove that tbe Long Cane Cemeery
was from the first, and bas always been
considered as a public burying ground and
not as belonging to tbe Upper Long Cane
C urcb. He also attempts to prove that we
cannot produce the title deed to establish our
claim.
But lflt Is necessary to produce the deed In
order to prove our claim, we are prepared to
do so, as we have In our possession the deed
and plot to eighty one (81) acres, which was
formerly the real estate of Upper Long Cane
"Presbyterian Church," and three fourths of
that land lies on tbe west side of tbe Due
West road, on wblcb tbe cemetery was, from
tbe first, established, and from which it has
never been Isolated aud separated, ae "Senex"
claims, by the road leading from tbe Due
West road, by way of Mr. Dusenbery's and
Intersecting tbe Anderson road.
Tbe Idea that tbe cemetery has been Isolated
for generations from this Long Cane land
by a little country road running through It
(until recent years,) Is absurd. This road,
and also tbe Due West rond, passed through
tbe Upper Long Cane lands. Hence, so far as
these roads traversed tbe -Long Cane lands,
they were the property of Upper Long Cane
Churcb, yettbe public could not be denied
tbe right of way through them. "Senex,"
takes un to task, and undertakes to Bet up
tbe claim, that tbe cemetery was a "detached
piece or land, Id Its purchase" and was purchased
by tbe people of that community generally
and then dedicated as a burying place
for tbelr dead. Something over an acre of
the old cemetery was purchased from Dr. J.
F. Livingston in J866, and added to tbe original
graveyard, and paid for by "Presbyterian
Upper Long Cane Church," and titles made
to that cburcb.
But "Senex" askes "for whose benefit and
for what purpose Is this claim now set up by
Rustic," and emphasized by M. V. Dusenberry?"
Wf answer, it Is for the purpose
aDd benefit of those who are lgDorautof lacts
concerning Long Cane Cemetery.
tie then asks, "Is it to remind those of us
<So, tbat It will be a mere matter of grace on
the part of the Upper Long Cane Congrega
t'on If they shall be allowed tbat privilege?"
No, tbe people of LoDg Cane are liberal, gen*
erous hearted, fair minded congregation of
Scotch Irish Ppesbyterlans who would not
stoop to do so mean a thing as deny "Senex."
or any otber white person, tbe spac of six
foot soil In Upper Long Cane Cemetery, and
should we survive blm, we hope to see tbat
he is properly laid to rest in tbe best spot Id
jjnag v/l*uo jti couj 101 tan uciuuai j , o??u <
"Rustic" and hid "numerous progeny" have
to be put away In tbe strangers row, or In
the driveway.
"Senex" asks where Is the proof that this
cemetery Is the property or Long Cane
Cbnrcb, we answer In tbe titles and plot held
by that church.
Ifthlswasnot tbe property of Long Cane
Cburcb, what was It when It was cut up, and
sold In lota to various parties, that Long
Cane Church was tbe only party that could
make a legal title to these lots ? Will "Senex"
please rise and explain.
As to the new portion added by tbe ladles
of the Abbeville Society, we set no claim on
that; yet It was formerly a part of the real
estate of Upper Long Cane Church as every
one knows.
We are perfectly aware that all denominations
have bulled their dead for generations
past In Long Cane Cemetery, and they always
shall do so, If they choose. No one has ever
been denied the privilege and no|oneever
will be denied that liberty.
We are sorry that we have been forced Into
this controversy, for there Is very little good
to be gained by a newspaper wrangle, and
when It occurs over a graveyard, the sacred
City of tbe dead. It Is especially to be deplored.
Tbe two Cemetery Societies worked together
harmoniously while the noble Christian
woman, Mrs. Link, (whom everybody loved)
was at the head of the Abbeville Sorlety.
But matters have not run so smooth since
her death, we are sorry to say It. Rustic.

a tempting resting place for

arms complete a delightful whole.
Most of these are entirely covered
with chintz or rep, a deeb flounce
reaching to the floor, but many of
them have a base and feet of mahogany

For the impossible place to dustwalls
and room corners?a broom hag
is invaluable. Make it of canton flannel,
with the nap inside, and make it
just big enough to slip over the whole
"head" of the broom. Itun a drawing
string of tape in to bold it in place at
the handle. A couple of these bags
will be enough for ordinary usage.
They should be washed each lime after
