THE VOICE THAT CAUA
Where forlorn enneet* flare and fad*
On desolate eea and lonely aaud.
Out of the alienee and tbo abode
What la the voice of atrango command
Calling you atill, as friend call* friend,
With love that cannol lirook delay.
To rise and tallow the ways that wend
Over the hills and far away!
Bark, In the city, street on street
A roaring reach of death and Ufa,
Of vortices that clash and fleet
And ruin in appointed strife;
Bark te it calling, colling clear.
Calling until you cannot stay
from dearer things than your own most
dear,
Over the hills and faraway.
Out of the sound of ebh and flow.
Out of the sight of lamp and star.
It calls you where the good winds blow
And the unchanging meadow* are;
from faded hopes and hopes iiglcmo.
It calls yon, calls you night and day,
Beyond the dark into the dream
Over tbo hi tin and far away.
—W. K. Henley in Boston Commonwealth.

HE KEPT STILL.
A Bfan with a Red hose Gets a Taloable
Pointer.
It was on a Sixth avenue elevated
train going uptown, says the Detroit
Free Pressi A man with a red nose
which terminated in a knob got on at
Franklin street and sat down beside a
little girl about five years of age, who
was accompanied by a bwther of
twelve. She was a sharp-eyed, hand
some child, and after a few minutes the
red-nosed man felt his heart warm np
to her and he said;
“Well, little girl, are yon going some
where?"
She looked np, bnt made no answer,
and after a minute he smiled more
blandly and continued: •
“You are an awfully nice little girl,
and I wish I hod some candy for yon.
Is thst your brother?"
“Say, mister!" called the boy as he
leaned forward, “you don’t know much
•bout children, do you?”
“Yes, I know all about ’em.”
“Well, then, you can take your
chances with her."
"Chanees? What chances?”
“Why, if you get her to talking she'll
np’n ask you all about that nose o’
your’n, and If you don’t want to give it
away you’d better keep still.”
Six passengers on the opposite seat
all began to grin at once, and the man
with the nose got up and solemnly and
stiffly marched up the aisle and opened
the door and dropped Into a seat in the
next cor. (Ie thought he knew all
about children, but that boy had given
him a pointer never to bo forgotten.
CATS THAT SEE _ NO DAYLIGHT
flaw York Post Office lias a Rather Re
markable Rat Service.
“It may not be generally known that
■there Is a remarkable aggregation of
eats in the big city post office in New
York," said a traveler to a Washington
■News reporter. “I served in that office
once and became so interested In the
one hundred and fifty or two hundred
cats In the basement of the building
that I began to make a sort of study of
the animal in general. These cats are
kept there to prevent the mice from
chewing up the contents of the mail
bags. So necessary are they regarded
that an appropriation of twenty dol
lars a month Is available for their sup
port. The light of day never strikes
the room which the cats are allowed
to roam, and from year in to year out
the electric lights are kept burning.
These cats know very well that tho
HE HAD COURAGE.
Bat nil Make-t p IVai backin' l u Strategy
and It Availed Him Rot.
There are many times, albeit not chap-
•eteriied by startling frequency, when
the nerve — the emotional nerve — of
Macallister Mellhcnnv reassert* itself,
and for the moment gives hope to his
friends that he will yet storm the cit
adel of some fair maiden's heart and
claim it as ids own, says the Detroit
Free Press. Tho latest recrudescence, ’
so to speak, In this line manifested it
self recently.
The buoyant and hopeful Mac had
found another sweet creature who had
permitted him to visit her after the first
call. In that alone was a certain tri
umph to which Macallister Mcllhfenny
was not slow to respond.
On the occasion of which this chron
icle treats he had tarried until he was
In sight of the wee sma’ hours, and in a
wild burst of enthusiasm he had pro
posed to her. ns be bed many, many
times proposed to so insny, many other
maidens.
Hut the girl resented it as if men were
plenty.
“Go!" she answered him, haughtily,
“go, sir!”
She was so radiantly beautiful, and
Macallister Mollhenny was so desd in
earnest, that before she knew what
had liappcncd he had bent forward and
kissed her with a loud report
“Sir!" she exclaimed, with great In
dignation, “you have gone too far."
“I beg your pardon," he replied, non
chalantly, “you told me to go, but you
didn't say how far. and I went"
Hut it availed him not lie had the
courage, but he lacked the strategic
quality, and once mqre he found him
self an emotional wanderer upqg the
face of the cold, repellent earth.
STORIES OF THE DAY.
L'nds kata Was Not at Rome When the
Call Came.
I met a real Georgia colonel the other
day—and Georgia colonels are as scarce
in real life as they are abundant in fic
tion—who told me ever so many stories.
This is one of them; This same Georgia
colonel lives on a plantation, as all
Georgia colonels ought to do, and he
has an innumerable horde of black
servants. One of them la a pessimistic
old man named Sam, who has always
been lond in his expression of a desire
to die. He feels that earth is not his
home, and he is homesick. One night
last fall the colonel went down to Sam's
cabin for something or other, and as he
passed the window he heard the old
negro praying that the angel of death
might come—and come quickly. The
colonel knocked on the window ledge.
“Who’s dat?’’ asked Sam.
“The angel ‘Gabriel come for Sam,’’
said the colonel impressively.
“Huh I’’said Sam in a voice which
he strove to make contemptuous, “don't
yon know po better’n dat? Dat nigger
Sam’s done been dead these three
weeks.”—Washington Post.
Wooed In tho Wot.
Allen Lester Fowler, a South Side
Chicago society leader, is engaged to be
married to Miss Emma Gibson, an ex
tremely engaging yonng woman of 19
summers. The engagement Is a pretty
sequel to the terrible experience of
Fowler, Miss Gibson, ,1 nines Dalton
and a boy on the lake recently.

ant sail, and when about five miles out

made a study of them. The conse
quence Is the animals labor under the
delusion that all time is night time,
and in spite of the fact that several
hundred persons are at work in the
room constantly, those cats are not de
terred from indulging in their noc
turnal serenades. They howl and fight
and scratch exactly the same as if they
were stationed on a back yard fence
with the darkness of Egypt about
them. Oh, yes, the clerks become used
to It after awhile and pay no attention
to them.”
THE BRILLIANlTDIAMOND.
An Old Conpla Who were Faaelnatod with
Ita Sparkling Kars.
“I have often wondered," said a jew
eler, “at the fascination a brilliant big
diamond possesses for some people. I
don’t know how to account for it, hut
the commandment that refers to covet
ousness is broken every second of the
day in frqnt of my window. And the
erring ones are not mostly women,
either, as is generally supposed, but
men—some in the sere and yellow
epoch of ago—stand before that window
and gsze upon ray poor display of gems
with straining,bulging eyes. Last week
I sold a diamond that weighed a little
over five carats. Previous to the sale I
had it in the window for a few weeks.
A certain old couple used to come regu
larly,every day and gaze for an hour at
a time at the gem. It was a straw-col
ored diamond, but very flashy. The
old couple would Invariably turn and
keep their eyes on the stone as long as
they were in sight, and seemed reluc
tant to leave. The next day after I
had sold the gem the old couple ap
peared as usual, and the look of disap
pointment on their faces was keen and
lingering. They scrutinized every cor-
•cr of the window in a vain search, and
when they failed to discover their fa
vorite moved slowly and sadly away.”

on the upturned boat. He noticed that
Miss Gibson was the coolest and least
concerned of the party, and his admira
tion of her courage was unbounded.
“Miss Gibson," he said finally, “yon
are the pluckiest woman I ever met,
and yon are the only woman I would
make my wife. I love yon, and if we
get out of this I want you to marry
me. ”
“That’s a bargain, wet feet and all,”
replied Miss Gibson.
“Shake on it,’’ said Fowler.
They shook, and the wedding will
occur in the early fall.—SL Louis

of tobacco, for while calling
upon him at his room in the
hotel Mr. Jones, in the midst of
a remark, stepped to the open
