The Telegram has never given the spring poets any en couragement bnt the following is so true to nature that we take pleasure in Riving it space and complimenting the author. Soon the jannty bullfrog, from his fitful winter drown, Will thoughtfully unroll himaelf and climb the turbid stream; The snake will set a wriggle on, the toad will give a hop, The turtle, for tho "river trade," will "open up his shop." The potato-bug convention on the hill side will oonvene, And make the granger weary olimbing up with paris green; The woodohnok from his ho le will peep when twilight hours are dim. And in tho early morning bring the fox-trail back with him; Perhaps a head of cabbage for hla "little Uit?y goo? He will pull the trap and cabbage in, anu pull the hole in too. The patter of the rain drops and the scamper of the rats Will awaken tender memories in soulful backyard cats, Where the moonlight's gentle focus, steeling through the midnight fug, Wavoa a canopied enchantment for some love siok poodle dug. Ton will hear the awl'fc rejoinder to hia love-mate's repartee, Aa be wisely winks both eyes at you from out somo neighboring tree; The jocund hens and roosters, in the plum tree by the door, Will harmonize their medley with the pig's sonorous snore; The mows will hold a oauous near the newly-planted corn. And add another wrinkle to tho farmer's face forlorn; The spiders, in tbe attic, will unco more their shutters ply. To wave a labyrinth for the uneducated fly; The rose bugs will olimb higher to escape a pending doom, And give points on jigs and waltzes 'mid the cherry tree perfume; The house flies Boon will grease their toes from off the t-ntter plate. To allay the irritation of their toe nails an your pate; The mosquito bird and other birds will form a poetry ring, And set Borne lines to music of the poetry of Spring ?J. W. WlLHOX. Have you heard anything of Adlai recently? Even the most prominent Democratic newspapers admit the uncertainty of the policy of present administration. Tbe At lanta Constitution of Saturday says: "The financial disasters in Wall street during the past two days are the natural outcome of the uncertainty in which the policy of the new administration is involved." There died in Mexico lately a miser who had tattooed his will over his chest instead of using pen and ink. The court decreed that the "human document should be copied and duly attested in the presonce of witnesses."' This was done, and the court has pro nounced the will genuine. The decline and fall of the Populists is absolute .sudden and irremediable. It is not based on their fastastic theories, but on their general lack of legislative capacity. Wherever they have been tried in the practical busi ness of government, in Colorado, North Dakota and in Kansas, etc. the Populists have proven them selves to be wasteful, shiftless, incapable, and above all, corrupt. An old gentleman in the coun try, believing that he was on his dying bed, sent to town and pro cured two lawyers. Thinking, of course, that the old man de sired t'ome legal business to be done, they went in with their pa per and ink, ready to fix up the last will and testament. The old man arranged them in seats so that one was at the foot and the other at the head of the bed. Everything in readi ness, the lawyers, in a very "pro fessional" manner, asked the old man how they could serve him and if he was ready for his will to be written, etc. But you im agine their feelings when the old man quietly said : "I am about to pass away and I want to die like Christ-between two thieves. ?Ex. The only papers in the State edited by ladies are the Poiat Pleasant Gazette and the Ritchie Reveille. The Owite editress is Miss Livy Simpson and the Reveille is managed by Mrs. Ella Stewart the wife of editor S. S. Stewart who recently eloped on account of a forgery he perpetrated. Mrs. Stewart's last paper was very creditable indeed. Why is a sailor like a milk man ? They both make their money on the water. '?Don't shoot the editor during meal hours," is a sign over a weekly newspaper office. It is safe to say that editor will never be shot. HOW TO TAKE A JOKE. And m>? II I. Not Goo<l Tuu to Vain ? Joke. There is only one way to take a joke and that Is with good nature. If ono shows annoyance, he is apt very ?*oon to become the prey of those social pests, the practical jokers. If any man come to be looked upon as the legitimate vic tim for the silly pranks which practical jokers delight in planning, then will his life become indeed a burden to him. When a practical joker gets up some piece of folly which is innocent in itself and is not calculated to bring contempt upon the victim, then any person with a sense of humor can forgive it being played upon Mm- He has been the clown in the circus, and he has acted against his will, but the performance has pro voked innocent merriment, and no one is worse off for the little divertissement. But when a practical joker gets up some nonsense not saved by fun from the stupidity which more or less always pre ponderates in a trivial performance, and the carrying out of the so called joke gives pain or does injur}', then the vic tim should seek redress in the same way he would employ if his barn or dwelling were burned down by an incendiary. A man who feels called upon to make jokes had best.be pretty certain of his sense of humor and his capacity to determine what fun is before lie -v. ry far with his predilection. Without this sense or this capacity ho may get a broken head and well deservo it, even though he only meant to have a laugh. When jokes are not practical?that is, when they require no. plan or elal?ora tion, but are spontaneous?it is not hard for a man not enveloped in vanity and self love to take them good naturedly. But when the laugh be turned against a conceited man, Lord how he does wince and squirm and hate the fellow who made the joke. To such men it is good counsel to advise them not to show their I wounds however much they hurt. Toj those who know such men it is good counsel to advise them to never make jokes at the expense of the vain. It will not do any good, for if a man grow to maturity and is still full of vanity he will keep it till he dies. Neither misfor tune, failure, adversity nor suffering will take the vanity out of a man really vain. His conceits stick to him as close as did the faith of Job to that patient person. The joker had best leave such as these alone and exercise his talents on those who will give and take and enjoy a good thing whether it strikes at home or very far afield. M | How to Prepare Milk For m Traveler*? Lunelieon. Place a nice bottle in a kettlo of hot water and scald it thoroughly, then rinse in cold water, and when the glass is per fectly cool first put in for each pint of milk two talwspoonfula of limewater. Even in hot anmmor weather it will then keep Bweet. If in addition yon wrap a wet cloth around the bottle and cover with a dry one, it will keep cooler than if this precaution wero omitted. How to ffuh Flannel.. One of the great secrets in the success ful washing of flannels 1b to have the different waters through which the flan nels are carried of the same temperature. Make a good hot suds, add a little am monia, wash the flannels thoroughly, a piece at a time, through one or two suds, as may be necessary. Then rinse imme diately in clear clean water of same tem perature, wring and shake thoroughly and dry as promptly as possible. Do not allow your pieces to lie unnecessarily long in the water. It is beet to take one piece at a time through each water and hang up to dry before adding another piece. I have never tried cold water, but have heard it may be successfully used, only in this case all the water must be cold. Do not hang your flannels out to freeie, or they will be sure to shrink. Flannels that have beoome yellow from bad washing may be restored to their original whiteness by soaking them two or three hours in a lather made of a quar ter of a pound of soft soap, 2 table spoonfuls of powdered borax and 2 table spoonfuls of carbonate of ammonia dis solved in 0 or 6 gallons of water. How U?t< Cot Their Green Color. It is owing to a peculiar green matter lying loose in the cells in the form of mi nute grains, named chlorophyll. This substance seen through the transparent walls of the cells where it has accumu lated gives-the common green hue to grass, vegetation and especially to foli age. It may bo sqneered out on the hands. | Haw to lire*, an Iron Bed.tcad. A white iron bedstead, with brass trimmings, cannot be covered more prettily than with white dotted muslin. These covers always wash well, and the very bedstead itself can be freshened with soap and water. The dotted mus lin coverlet Just fits the top of the bed and a valance hangs to the floor. The Bhams are of the samo muBlin frilled, with a large satin bow in one corner. The muslin is lighter to lift and fold at night than any other covering would be. How to Hake a Sleeve Holder. To each end of a yard of inch wide rib bon fasten a brass ring, over which has been crocheted silk to match. When the ribbon is wound round the sleeve, one ribbon is put over the thumb, the other over the forefinger, while the coat is drawn on. How to Prepare a Ba.kct Cradle. A common splint clothesbasket it the foundation. In it Is laid a hair pillow for a bed, with a small pillow for the baby's head. If desired, the basket can be lined with folds of soft cheesecloth. This cradle or bed can be bo easily car ried from room to room that it is a great convenience. The aides are so high that a baby can be set up against pillows at one end without being in danger of fall ing out. Such a bed can easily be car ried out of doors when the day is fine. How to Make a New Pen Pill Willi Ink. Moisten it slightly on the tongue be fore dipping it in the ink. How to Waah a Carriage. First wet it thoroughly with the hose or by throwing water over it. This will remove all gritty dirt and mud, which, if rubbed off, would scratch the varnish. Do not use hot water in winter. Wash off with a sponge soaked in water. llow to start a lln.tr Screw. With a nail punch give it two or three sharp blows to drive it in, then use the screwdriver. If the blows do not start it, heat the screw by holding a hot iron to its head. HOW TO TREAT 'A WaicH.
