Heintzman Piano says :

“The tone was rich and full—ell that a singer could desire. It has been my privilege to sing be-

fore the pianos of tr: ling makers ip @}i parts ct the world, but my experience

with the Heintzman & Co piano justifies me in say- ing that it wi | take a posi- tion along with the best of them.”

‘The warriors that slumbered Awakened in their tomb ;

And they who sleep congealing Mid northern ice and snow, And they who lie in Italy

Where scorching summers glow,

And they whom the Nile’s slime covers, And Araby’s glowing sand, from out their graves arising All take their arms in hand.

The trumpeter at midnight (Quits, too, his grave to blow His blast so shrill and piercing And rideth to and fro,

‘There, coming on spectral chargers, The ghastly dead behold!

The blood-stained ancient squadrons With weapons mninifold !

The grinning skulls so ghastly Beneath their helmets peer ; In their bony hands uplifted Their gleaming swords appear.

At midnight’s ghostly- hour

The chieftain quits his grave ; Advances, slowly riding

Amid his chosen brave.

No plume his helm adorneth, Hi. garb no regal pride,

And small is the polished sabre That’s girded to his side.

The moon shines bright, illuming The plain with silver rays ;

That chief with the plumeless helmet His warrior hosts surveys.

The ranks, their arms presenting, Th en shoulder arms anew, And pass with music’s clangor Before him in review.

Reviews his warrior train. JOSEPH CHRISTIAN ZEDLITZ.

WAR NOTES. |

Owing to the lack of transport, the British are not likely to invade Boer ; territory except where Lord Roberts is operating.

Japanese residents intend to make! an offer to the Imperial Government to raise a corps for service in South Africa.

Typhoid fever is said to be playing hayoc among the Boers at Coles- burg.

Despatches from Maseru say that large forces are being sent from the Transvaal to the Free State, under prominent Generals. It is also said the Free State is making desperate ef- forts to collect an army to face the]

British at Koffyfontein.

The Queen has sent a direct mes-- | sage to Lord Roberts congratulating | him and his troops. Gen. French and | Col. Kekewich have been acquainted | with their promotions,

The Queen, through her private sec- retary, Sir Arthur John Bigge, has sent the following letter to the commander- |

in-chief of the forces, Field Marshal | Lord Wolseley .

My dear Lord Wolseley—aAs so large a proportion of the army is now in South Africa, the Queen fully realizes that necessary measures must be adopt- ed for home defence. Her Majesty is advised that it would be possible to raise fora year an efficient force from , her own soldiers who have already , | served as officers, non-commissioned ~

Se Uncle Jim, he ain’t to blame Fur all these doin’s now— South Africa with skies aflame, This Filipino row. I’m very much inclined to say, When signs of peace grow dim, Folks wouldn’t be so skeered if they Had minded Uncle Jim. — Washington Star. i inlaiien The Merry Time of Frost and Snow, She says she likes the winter time, She “‘loves the frost and snow;”’ She says she likes the cutting blasts That round the corners blow. ‘How gay,’’ she says, ‘‘to ride on ice, How grand to speed away Across the whitened landscape in The swinging, swaying sleigh.’’

Oh, yes, she likes the winter time, With all its ills and chills, With all its balky furnaces And heavy heating bills! But while I shiver here and blow Upon my fingers she May spend her winters in the south, From icy terrors free. : —Chicago Times-Herald.

Looking Forward, Son, when the woman you love 0 sweetly Gives you the gay ha-ha, Don’t think life is soured completely; Take a look at her ma! This old world has women a-plenty. Time will change young loye to a toy. Every woman is sweet at twenty. (Your ma was twenty herself, my boy!)

Daughter, when he you loved as a lover Gives you the cold ta-ta, Don't conclude that joy is over; Go and gaze at his pa! This old world has tricks that are dirty. Time will fix it, never you fear. Every man is a god at thirty. (i was thirty myself, my dear!) —New York Press,

Cured.

Pale, sick, 1 walked the ocean strand; A good, stout cane was in my hand; With weakness | could scarcely stand

And face the salt sea spray. Then feebly to the ground | stooped. A handful of the sand | scooped; I swallowed it, and then | whooped

And threw my cane away.

Its Legal Aspect. Necessity knows no law, But her rulings no man can budge; Decisions are often raw When Necessits acts as judge. But, however aggrieved vou teel, Just pay up your costs and trudge; You bet there is no appeal When Necessity acts as judge. —Chicago Record, The Longest Word. Wife—Here’s the longest word in the language. There’s 20 syllables in it. Husband—Just the same, it isn’t. The longest word is the comparative degree of long. Wife—How do you make that out? Husband—Enasy enough. I don’t care how long your word is, that is losger.— Detroit Free Press.
