With spirit crashed he went his way His mind could know no case: His darkness knew no clearing ray His pants bagged at the knees! APRIL. She who from April dates her years Diamonds should wear, lest bitter tears For vain repentance flow: thisstone Emblem of innocence is known. IMPORTANT HINTS. BY TOM BRESNAK. It is unhealthy to wear yonr boots in the house after one o'clock a.

m. The common plan is to remove them in the hallway, but many of our most experienced husbands prefer the front steps. Always take a boot in each hand when going up-stairs. This plan gives you two shots at the cat after stepping on her. Never say anything to your wife on these occasions except "yes" and no." Eating cloves is apt to impede the speech.

Never compel your wife to get up first and build the If she doesn't do it of her own accord, go to sleep again. Another way of accomplishing the same result is to whistle Grandfather's Clock." A true woman will always get up under such circumstances. When your daughter gets big enough to have gentlemen visitors, give up the" parlor to them cheerfully. It Is much cheaper to let the dog bite them as they start for home- thau to scold the- girl until she cries, and then have to buy hcra sealskin incqucas a souvenir of your idiocy. Always remember your wedding-day and try to mark the occasion by some little act showing that yon remember it.

Coming home half full will often signalize the anniversary in a marked but inex-. pensive manner. Bring your sons up to some occupation that will enable them to get a living when thrown upon their own resources. Nothing makes ayoung man so self-reliant as having a trade of his own. In Cincinnati bunko steerers frequently make $100 a ay- UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT.
