STABS AM) STRIFES HYMN
Copyright 1915, by R. H. Locke.
E'er yet the stars .wore born, God formed thee like the morn,
To which all hearts shall turn, with love and pride,
Deep from th® worn}) of night, God drew.thy shining light,
Far from a soundless sea, of Liberty. I
Fair as a rose at dawn, God formed thee like the morn,
Rugged with sleepless tills, against th© sky.
We love thy sea to sea, .wide sweeping majesty.
Far from the sweep of .thee, let sunsets flee.
For swift as .light doth fade, when sunset westward seeks,
Thy hills .and plains arrayed, wit> bristling peaks,
Still front the light .of day, still fire the sunset gun,
Always the Stara and Stripes shall frout the sun.
Led by.their dream of thee, pilgrims from o'er the sea,
Fleeing the gathering night, tu rued toward thy light,
When tried by foes and wild, fire tried for home and.child,
War swept, they died for thee, and Liberty.
Let not their .deathless fame, make all thy past in vain.
Thy splendid past that fills, m<ne eyes with tears.
Led by the need of thee, breth ren across the sea,
Fearing the darkening night, t urn toward thy light,
Hear ye those meaning cries, se e ye those blood red skiee,
Haste, e'er the daylight .dies, hear ye those cries.
Stretch forth thine arm.to save, In mercy, not in wrath,
Rise to they sacred trust, rise to thy trust.

RURAL AMERICA.
Jur Country as It Was In ths Tims of
Gsorgs Washington.
The America of Washington's day
pas primitively, racily rural. The
jountry outnumbered the city thirty to
>ne. It outvoted and outlnfluenced the
dty. The country was countrified
without urban Qualities or depend
sncies. Not even the cities themselves
ivere citified. Philadelphia, the great
it of them all, with the finest shops,
the best houses, the most extravagant
people, was but a poor, small triangle
at bouses, with Its base on the Dela
ware and Its apex stretching timidly
toward the west Its people, though
reputed gay and luxurious, went early
to bed. rose early and were without
the opportunities and distractions of
modern urban life. There were no
great factories, no armies of workmen,
no extended commerce, no horse cars,
no omnibuses, no sharp differentiation
of the city Into business and residence
sections. Like envious New York and
aspiring Boston, Philadelphia was still
half rural.
A great city was not desired nor
even contemplated. To "the fathers"
the very conception had In It some
thing unwholesome. A city was a
dwelling place of turbulent. Impious,
Ignorant mobs, of a congregation of
"unproductive" artisans, wastrels, crim
inals, Sabbath breakers. It was a
blister on the social body, a tumor
which absorbed the healthy Juices.
The city was vaguely associated with
royalties, courts, armies, beggars and
tattered. Insolent, rascally mobs; the
country was the cradle of republican
virtue and democratic simplicity. Jef
ferson, having In mind the squalid ag
glomerations of the old countries, con
gratulated America on being rural. De
Tocqueville In the thirties believed
that the absence of a great capital city
was "one of the first causes of the
maintenance of Republican Institu
tions. "—Walter Weyl in Harper's Mag
azine.
Wind Velocity.
The majority of people are unable to
determine the wind's velocity. When
the smoko from a chimney moves In a
straight, vertical column It means that
a one to two miles an hour breeze Is
blowing. A. three miles an hour wind
will Just stir the leaves on the trees.
Twenty-five miles an hour will sway
the trunkB; at forty the small branches
will break, and it takes a mile a minute
gale to snap the trunks of big trees.—

Among the many curious notions ob

feminine. Its force and cruelty ap
pealed to the northern mind. Its grace
and elegance attracted the warriorg of
the sunny south. It typified to the one

CURIOUS CARD TRICK.
t Deals With Odd Numbers, and the
Explanation Is a Mystery.
There is a puzzle which may be per
'ormed with nny odd number of ob
jects, playing cards being usually em
ployed, and which any one can do, but
30 one seems able to explain the red
son for It. Let us suppose the numbei
selected to be twenty-seven cards, al
though fifteen or twenty-one would do
|ust as well.
After having them shuffled hold them
In the left hand face upward and then
leal them face upward one at a time
In three plies so that the fourth card
:onies 011 the first and the fifth on the
top of the second and so on until you
have three piles of nine cards each.
Request any person who Is watching
you to make a silent note of any card
ho pleases, and when you have finished
ileallng to tell you In which pile the
card lies. By picking up the three plies
again one at a time as before, the not
ed card will reappear. Ask In vhlch
pile It came that time and place that
pile In the middle as before.
Upon dealing the cards Into three
piles for the third time note carefully
the card that comes In the middle of
each pile. With twenty-seven there
will be nine in each pile and the fifth
will be the middle card. Now, when
the person who selected the card names
the pile in which his card comes you
will know It was the middle card of
that pile. With this knowledge In your
possession you can finish the trick in
nny manner you please
This is only a statement of results,
but what Is the explanation or reason
for it? What Is the rule that makes it
always come out right, regardless of
the number of objects used, so that It
Is odd?—New York Sun.

BEGGARS OF UNA
They Are an Impudent and Ag

BRAZEN PRANKS THEY PLAY.
Some of the High Handed Scheme*
They (Joe For the Purpose of Extort
ing Money From Their Vlctlme—One
Clever Method of Robbery.
Begging la In the nature of an art In
China, and the various sorts of suppli
cants have been classified until now It
Is known that there are at least thirty
classes of traveling mendicants who
regularly go from place to place, plying
their profl table vocation. The passen
ger boats know them only too well and
do not attempt to collect passage mon
ey, for they sleep oo the open deck
and, curiously enough, pay for what
ever rice they require. This being the
case, rather than have any trouble
with them and gain their enmity the
boatmen allow them free passage.
When the mendicants reach the ctty
they put up at the beggar hotel near
the big pagoda and let the beggar
headman know of their arrival. 8oon
the regular allowance is forthcoming
from their victims, and the beggars
spend a few days in pursuit of pleasure
and then move on to another place to
repeat the same proceeding.
There Is one particularly obtrusive
and disagreeable class trained to bal
ance various objects on the nose, which
usually selects a victim of means.
These fellows may walk into a house
and pick up chairs and balance them on
their noses as they prance around the
room. They then take these and place
them just outside of the door, poaslbly
on tho street, much to the satisfaction
of the large crowd which has followed
them, as they have possibly Just done
the same thing down tha street a bit
If the money is Immediately forthcom
ing, the show may soon stop and the
things will be returned to their proper
places.
If, on tUe ottier nana, we resiu«uu>
refuse to comply with their demands,
they pick tip one article of furniture aft
er another, skillfully balance each upon
their noses, and, amid the roar of
satisfaction from the street rabble,
they carry them outside to the street
This may continue till the whole ot
the room's contents have been plied
upon the street, and then the beggar*
walk off amid the bursts of applause
that follow their action and leave the
victim to move his belongings back
Into the house.
Again, there are others who are
beggars pure and simple, who walk
In the middle of the street, beating
the pavement with a small bamboo
stick. They turn neither to tbe right
nor to the left to beg, but keep their
eyes fixed ahead of them sod take
only what is thrown to them.
In quite another class Is the wretch
who shams ailment or physical defect,
and who Is a clever actor, willing to
go to considerable physical discomfort
in his efforts to arouse sympathy. Ha
makes a practice of cutting himself
when his demands are refused. He
will appear before a family and de
mand a fee. If this Is refused he
draws a knife and cuts his forehead,
and the blood begins to flow, much
to the horror and confusion of those
In the house, especially If they •«
jnly women.
The sight of blood quickly change*
the matter, and the beggar begins to
yell in a most distressing way at the
same time, attracting a crowd. It la
now easy with so many witnesses (o
open negotiations for a much largei
fee, and he is usually paid consider
ably more than was at first demanded.
Having carried his point, the beggai
now tours the entire street, whew
the news of his actions has preceded
him, and he finds no trouble la col
lecting a handsome little sum from his
one cut, for tbe blood, still fresh or
his face, strikes terror to tbe chlcker
hearted.
There is also a class or cnnuams
who are sent Into exile and sentenced
to beg for a certain period of tlm« in c
province a long distance from their na
tive places. This does away with th<
necessity of the government's feedlnf
the criminal and puts him out npor
public charity.
Of a very different class are the mei
who have a pitiful tale of starvation t<
tell, which, they bewail, compels then
to sell their wives or sons. Few in
deed would think of making a purchas<
of this nature, and the story almost In
variably results In the bestowal o
money on the "unfortunate" man
However, if he finds some one who li
willing to make the bargain and taki
