FOR the last time Donxyhrook Fair holds a place between its covers for Ninety-seven. As a class we have marched from an obscure position among its leaves until now we occupy the foremost scat by the Faculty. Hut it is not entirely as Seniors we would be remembered. We have been other than dignified—we were once young ; and some of the many changes that have been wrought both in outward and inward growth will be seen and recognized at least bv Ninety-seven in the following pages. We are best known by our Freshman traits and customs—first, as developing and maintaining a peculiarly strong antagotism to Ninety-six. which, in after years turned into equally strong friendship; secondly, as presenting to the College the cup for the Soph vs. Freshman tennis championship, which has been successfully handed down to the odd-numbered classes and which good custom we hope will continue; thirdly, as being unique in indulging our Freshman appetites with a sumptuous banquet, which did much to bring us into happy relations with one another ; and lastly, as entertaining Ninety-five with the first and only minstrel show on record. It is not in a spirit to exalt ourselves that we mention these various happenings of four long years ago, but as brief chronicles for those who did not know us then and as suggestions to dear old Ninety-seven of those glorious times which have passed into lasting memories. She‘s not the same Before she came To live in “home” seclusion : A saint was she, Still seems to he. 1 ler picture's one delusion. What's this we hear? A sound, 1 fear, As though of mountains shaking : A body small Comes down the hall And sets our buildings quaking. A bright ring, new, A cook-l ook, too, This lucky girl i ossesses ; Oh ! friends, alas! Wc've let it pass. Tis I.cap-Ycar brings caresses! It) “ B ” stands for bold And bright, we ’re told ; B” stands for Brownell, Bennett. It seems in place To put this case Before a private senate. She has a voice Of “ Orum ” choice, Her breathing is profound ; Her singing deep Would lull to sleep If distance knew no bound. 20 Oh, many a date She’s kept so late We all for her have tarried ; She surely will, To fill the bill, Be late in getting married. Her gentle smile Seems free from guile And flirty tricks above. Yet Dr. B------ Did think that she Knew everything of love. With head erect, And eye direct. Straight to the point she goes; Alas! I fear. The picture here Denotes her love of clothes. b 21 Psychology, We plainly see Has this girl’s fancy caught, And Ethics, too; She looks at you, And then— you know you ought.” Why should sweet girls With pretty curls To Physics take a liking, Or measure lines, And eke cosines, When they should go a-biking What! “ Verdant! ” she? Ah no ! yon see, This is a sad misnomer ; She all things knows, From—why it snows, To who’s the wife of Homer. 22 Dear Linda Graft, You make me laugh. So many think you haughty : But I know well You are a sell, You can be sadly naughty. This damsel here .May work all year In Gym, with many pains. But at the end, We may depend, We '11 still hear, “ Calhe Gains.” Straight and direct. In friends select. We never find her tardy. And it is sure She can endure, Because her name is Mardv 28 Our grinds arc few. Hut here are two. Behold their noble faces ! Long midnight toil With burning oil Has left its telling traces. She sits serene Behind a screen Of glasses and of glare, But if we look Behind her book, We '11 find a laugh hid there. 24 She's put to test From east to “ West ’’ The power of all to jolly ; Save “Skip,” she cares Not how each fares— He understands her folly. So innocent! By her were kent No----words when she came here : But she has heard, And used that word, Before her Senior year. V In our French play She held full sway, We thought she was right swell ; She sang a song. Not very long. And not so awful well. 25 Of timid way, And little say, With Freshman work begun ; Of stubborn mind, And haughty kind When Senior work is done. A spirit she So frail that we Scarce know how we should handle, The angel seen On painted screen To her can’t hold a candle; ( She was So fair And dlbonnaire! A butterfly content; But now sedate. She sits in state. Our gracious President. 28 A meek and mild And gentle child When Freshman days did greet her ; For Senior pride She ever sighed— She still is only Meeker. She long has sought To get a thought And put it into rhyme, From Freshman play To Senior Day— The lack lies not in time. 27 She cometli late To graduate— On special work insisted— Hut a degree. The big A.B.! Was not to l e resisted. V A baby air, Complexion fair. Her glances coy and sharp— She’s improved much. Now firm her touch Upon the autoharp. 'W r ' Kcin Arbeit dir Ein trifle mere At Schiller Club zu sprechen, Thy eloquence Is so intense We can 't our silence brechen She tried, alas ! To aid her class And help along the nation ; Ninety-eight, we know, Is always slow. Hence came her resignation. 38 For every dance Or news from France, She 'll glance the Herald thro’; For funerals sad And capers bad She knows the latest, too. 29 With mind intent And figure bent At bargains hard she drives ; She’s never spent A wasteful cent— That's why class business thrives. For work obstruse She has much use, She dallies in the lab— She's fond, we know, Of H,0, A math. prof, she will grab. , For weeks and Weeks Her mother seeks To have her picture “took,” Fach camera broke. So say the folk— She’s minus in this book. 30 In German class This clever lass Most any clay you ’ll see. Exams she takes And always makes A great big P. H. C.” She has her say Most every day In rows witl all the profs. She’s played this game With them, the same Since we were foppish Sophs. Motto: Qui palmam meruit feral. Colors—Violet and White.

Ristory of the Class of ’ 99' j “ The year lias gone with its joy or pain, Its hopes, its fears, or its pleasures ; Some days of sunshine, some dashed with rain. Some filled with knowledge to treasure. Oh ! days that are gone to come not again. HKSE WORDS will arrest the attention of the thinking world, for surely our fame has spread far anti wide, and is to-day the subject of discussion for thousands. Our entrance into College last year was most propitious, for Ninety-eight took such an interest in us from the very first, going so far as to offer us some suggestions on etiquette, in order that we might make the desired impression at a tea given in our honor. Even after that they showed us little attentions, until the entrance of Nineteen-hundred demanded all their time and interest. Other friends we had, too, during our Freshman year, and one of our pleasantest memories is the evening we spent with Robin Hood and his Merry Band, through the kindness of our beloved Ninety-seven. The glory of Ninety-nine will be handed down to posterity for many reasons. Foremost among these are our tennis victories. For two years now our champions, of whom we are so justly proud, have carried off the cup and —the honors. It was only at the earnest solicitations of the friends of Ninety-eight that we allowed that class to win in the tournament, and our generosity has been loudly applauded. Another reason for the just self-appreciation of Ninety-nine is the fact that she is the first class to have her attentions to the Freshmen dignified by the recognition of the Faculty. The recognition was not undeserved, however, for it involved some time and trouble to direct the little ones in organizing their class and choosing their officers. In addition to this assistance, at their first introduc- tion to College society, we provided suitable amusement for them to whom the usual formalities of a swell tea would have proved trying. Our latest act of affection was to remove the tassels from their caps in order that the infantile eyes should not be injured by the swinging appendages to which they are so unaccustomed. In addition to these victories and evidences of originality, Ninety-nine has every reason to be proud of her number, for she includes in :17 her ranks athletes, authors, poets, philosophers and. in fact, her representatives arc fitted to fulfill every noble calling which even the critical nineteenth century can demand of women. With the exceptions of the few of our number who have lost their youth and happiness in the fruitless search for theme subjects, we can thankfully say we have no sad incidents to recount. However brilliant the future of our class may be, it can never take the place in our hearts of those two years which have just passed, during which we bound ourselves together and vowed allegiance to Ninety- nine—those years “Tho’ lost to sight, to memory dear.” Wanted! vlr ects Hr 7 1 em.cS. as Motto : ‘ ‘ Me fir I. ichf.''

Honorary Member. f)istory of Ye Class of poo. N the Fall of Eighteen hundred and ninety-six a little band of pilgrims entered the halls of learning. Taking oath to abjure the sight of men and all dissipations except the mild one of monthly receptions, they encamped and were duly labeled the Class of Nineteen-hundred. Investigating the regiment to which they had attached themselves, they found three other companies already enlisted, each of whom seemed anxious to show them some attention. At the instigation of the Class of Ninety-nine, jealous of their ever-increasing popularity, a would-be Sophomore, deserter from the ranks of the Freshmen, tried tampering with the workings of the first general assembly. Failing to get her office, and having injured herself more than anyone else, she at last retired from public life. The veterans in the service welcomed the new-comers joyously at a tea, as is the custom of this hospitable company. The uninvited Class of Ninety-nine, with great clamor, kept guard outside the hall, having surrounded the entrance with a miscellaneous collection of articles and people. Perhaps they intended having an auction. Who knows? On a sunny Saturday not long after, the banner of Nineteen-hundred was unfurled, and the class marched forth to battle on the tennis court ; only to return after a close contest with good resolutions for next year. The Juniors, allies of the Freshmen in all feuds, entertained them royally with the performance of a farce illustrating the application of “Woman’s SuflTcrage” to dear old Baltimore. The novel entertainment, as well as the icecream “ bloomer girls,” met with well-merited applause. As the class wended its way homeward all voted the evening to have been most enjoyably spent. Alas ! on arriving at the barracks it became very evident that Ninety-nine had also spent a pleasant evening, for while the quarters of Nineteen-hundred were deserted the “wise fools” descended upon them and stole all the tassels from the caps (caps and gowns being the uniform of the community). Then for several days the War of the Tassels raged. No pitched battles were fought, but there was much skirmishing, in which many Sophomores, as well as Freshmen, lost not their lives, but their tassels. 42 It is rumored that the Sophs were extremely anxious to get back theirs, in order that they might at least have that much to be thankful for on Thanksgiving Day. At any rate, on the day before that holiday Ninety-nine made an unconditional surrender, and all tassels were returned. Soon a truce was agreed upon on account of an epidemic of “cramming” which had broken out in both camps, preparatory to their being overhauled and examined by the generals in command. Although Ninety-nine was very anxious for Nineteen-hundred to swell the ranks of cavalry to which they belonged, and even offered to procure for them ponies, the Freshmen disdained to follow the example of their predecessors, resolving to remain faithful infantry. The commandants having drilled and examined the regiment to their heart's content, finally announced the long-promised furlough of two weeks — Ah me! it proved all too short. The joyous Christmas-tide over once more at the stroke of the gong, the companies assembled ready for action. As the seasons roll on the Class of Nineteen-hundred proves both brave and courageous. Manfully enduring all the trials of the training as they come, she looks forward to the time when, reviews being over and done with, she shall gloriously sally forth into the great Battle of Life.

From the time of its organization, the Chapter has done practically nothing but secure a membership of one hundred, collect one dollar from each member, and then send the hundred dollars to the College Settlement Association, paying just that amount to remain a chapter—truly a chapter in name only. In April of last year it was decided, however, to take an active part in the work that was being carried on at the Law- rence House, on Parkin Street. Two students were elected members of the Board of Directors of the House, and were re-elected in June, the appointed time for election to the Board. At the first meeting this year, it was decided that the Chapter would devote its energies to work among the girls who are sadly in need of help. The choice and arrangement of work to be done was put into the hands of a committee. This committee decided that the older girls should be instructed in music and sewing, while the younger girls learned kindergarten songs, games and occupations. For the latter work, the assistance of trained kindergartners was obtained. All have been given such training in physical culture as is possible under exist- ing circumstances. Besides this regular work, the committee arranged for special programmes once a month. The “special evening” in November was devoted to a pleasant Thanksgiving entertainment; in December to a talk by Dr. Lillian Welsh, on the “Care of the hair, nails and teeth in January to a musicale. The regular work will be continued throughout the year, as will also the special evenings. The Chapter is interested in the work, it remains now to interest and hold the girls we desire to help. 70 President, .... I'ice-President................

In shape, it is nearly square, with windows on three sides—the five windows at the east end forming a large bay—and shelves on all sides filled with books. There are, besides these shelves, four stacks, for this room contains the nucleus of our library. Oak tables, with comfortable chairs, stands for the periodicals, and the librarian’s desk, make up the furniture of the room. The attractiveness is enhanced by marble busts of Ariosto and Tasso on dark pedestals, a fine photograph oi the Forum over the mantel, a bronze head of Dante, and potted plants on the broad window-sills. Small as the number of books is, those of each department are well chosen, and the editions are generally good. Of late many valuable books have been added to the Art Department, and several portfolios of tine engrav- ings have been received as gifts. Excellent editions of Thackeray and of Irving have been presented to the Library. through the efforts of two students of the Class of Ninety-nine, and the English Department has made gifts of much needed books. The books for the Biological and Geological Departments are in the rooms of those departments, and many books which are not of present use have been taken to an upper room, from which they can be brought back to the Library when needed, but are not permanently in the room to add to the overcrowding. The Library is in need both of more books and more room. To provide for the former, a library fund is greatly needed: for the latter the ground has already been marked oft'for a library building, on St. Paul street, corner of 24th street, next to the home of President Goucher. The books of our Library are classified according to Cutter’s Expansive System, with some variations, but are not given shelf-numbers. A dictionary card-catalogue is used, the subject-catalogue being made practically distinct by the adoption of blue cards for subject-cards. The students have free access to the Reading Room, which is open from 8.30 A. M. until 6 P. M. The rules are of the simplest, being only such as are necessary for the comfort of those using the room, and for the good of the Library. A borrower may keep a book one week and may renew it, if it is not at that time in demand by some- one else. The working materials of the Library are of good quality and in excellent taste. The librarian believes that such things have an educational and ethical value, and this point is kept in view in all the library appointments. 100 Last gear's ]Y[etnory Book. AS THE Freshman entered the Junior's room the Junior looked up with a nod, and then bidding the Freshman amuse herself for awhile, she turned back to her work with an air which was very proper for a patron to use toward her protege. The Freshman wandered about the room looking at the pictures and other things until her eye caught sight of a huge book, which she seized and settled herself upon the couch to enjoy. It was a “ Memory Book.” and opened with February, 1896. Some of the mementos she could not understand, but she eagerly read the very full notes. Underneath a card with a sketch of two of Kate Green way’s children on it was written : “ February 7.—Home ‘ D ’ entertained the girls from the other Homes at a ‘ Baby Party.’ Note—“Mr. Charles J. Bonaparte read before the Social Science Club, on February 7. two papers, one on ‘ Dress,’ and the other on ‘The Reign and Fall of Municipal Oligarchy.' “New York, Pennsylvania and Southern Clubs have been formed. “Basket-ball teams have been organized and are practicing nearly every day.” By this last note was very appropriately pasted a large piece of court-plaster. 101 Upon unrolling a scroll of parchment paper the Freshman found that on February 15 Gamma Phi Beta had represented “A Homespun Heroine,” by Arria S. Huntingdon. Under a little brown envelope was written “ Chocolatierc. Home 1).’ February 12.” A picture of Moliere adorned the first page of a program of the French play, l.es Precieuscs Ridicules,” given February 29, under the direction of I)r. Shefloe. The first function recorded for March was the annual Glee Club concert on March 6. On the afternoon of that day Dr. Sherwood, of the Johns Hopkins University, addressed the Social Science Club on the subject, The Free Coinage of Silver.” “Our Alumna- have arranged for a series of addresses on Graduate Work for Women.’ The first one in this series was given March 4, by Miss Scott, Ph.D., on • Life and Work at the University of Cambridge.’ Miss Lathe made the preliminary address on ‘The Work at the University of Chicago.’ ” On the next page was a program of a recital given by Mr. Rutter at Home “ B ” on March 13. “The second in the course of lectures arranged by the Alumna- was given March 18. Dr. Mary Sherwood spoke on The Study of Medicine at Zurich,’ and Miss Packard described The Medical Course at Johns I lopkins. ’ ” “ Home reception at Goucher Hall, March 20.” The Freshman did not understand the pressed flowers or the remarks written under this. “ Athletic Association permanently organized.” “ ‘ Donnvhkook Fair. ’97.’ appeared March 28, just in time for the Faster vacation, which began April 2 and lasted until April 13.’’ 11 April 22.—Third lecture arranged for by Alumna-, Mrs. Froelicher talked on ‘German Philology at Zurich,’ and Mrs. William Buckley spoke on ‘The Study of Classics at Cambridge.’ ” April 23—Was celebrated as ‘Athletic Day.’ Fxercises—Regular gym exercises, swimming contest, basket-ball game and tennis.” “ May 7.—(‘Spring, the sweet Spring,’ Dr. Butler’s favorite.) The Faculty and students gave a farewell reception to Dr. Butler, who has accepted the professorship of Knglish literature in Boston University.” An entire page in the Memory Book was taken up with souvenirs from that memorable day—May 9— which a large number of students spent in Annapolis under the direction of Dr. Hopkins. “The closing Home reception, May 15.” “Annual vocal and instrumental musicalc. May 22.” Simply a note.—“That on May 25 the Class of Ninety-nine took the Class of Ninety-seven down the bay (for our Junior was not in that).” The Freshman paused a minute to wonder how the Class of Nineteen-hundred would entertain the Class of Ninety-eight, then turned the page, and came to “Junior-Senior banquet, May 28, at Goucher Hall.” There were several souvenirs from the day at Alto Dale, and a number of notes which testified to the good times there, which made the Freshman long for Spring and another “ President’s Lawn Party.” 102 “ Baccalaureate sermon, June 7. preached by the dean.’’ “A number of Alumnte are back for commencement.” “Class of Ninety-four celebrated its first reunion by a banquet at the Rennert.” The Freshman was especially interested in the Class Day exercises, which were on June S, and she carefully examined the program for that day. “ In the evening the Faculty gave a reception to the graduating class.” “ June 9.—Commencement—The best part of that for the undergraduates is when we turn our tassels.” “ The ‘Lawn Fete’ given by the undergraduates turned out to be a ‘ Gym Fete, but everybody had a good time, except that we hated to say good-bye to our Ninety-six girls. “ Vacation.”—Evidently the Memory Book had remained in Baltimore, for there was no record for those three months. The mementos of the Summer vacation are so numerous that they require a book for themselves. “ September, '96. —Now the Freshman feels more at home, she understands this part better. “ Back in Baltimore again.—College exercises began September 21. at 10 o'clock.” “ This card with the pin-holes in it is the one used at the V. W. C. A. reception, Friday, September 25.” “Matriculation sermon, preached by Rev. F. P. Frost, at First Church. Sunday, September 27.” The Freshman blushes as she sees a piece of green ribbon, below which is written : “ October j.—Tea, given by Class of Ninety-seven, to the Class of Nineteen-hundred, at which the Class of Ninety-nine assisted.” That reminds her so plainly of the ‘ salt ’ and the ‘ donkey.' ” October 22.—Dr. Buckley lectured on ‘ Imitation and Emulation,' in the chapel.” This Rose and Green ribbon is from the Sophomore-Freshman tennis tournament. The great event when more class spirit is displayed than at any other time in the year. “ Saturday, October . .—Sophomores won, ” is written below. “The first reception of the year given to the students by the Faculty and Trustees, October 30.” “ Hallow C'en.—A witch party given by Home ' C ’ to the students at the others halls.” “ November 5.—Dr. and Mrs. Gouchcr gave a reception to the Seniors and Alumnae.” “Next year we will be Seniors. ” “ Saturday. November 7.—Tennis tournament for class championship. The Sophomores again conquered the Freshmen. The Juniors conquered the Seniors after a very close game. Final—Ninety-eight victorious— Three cheers for Ninety-eight ! ” (Here were two scraps of yellow and white cambric, cut from the flag used at the tournament. They looked as if they had seen service.) “The first meeting of the Schiller-Kninchcn was held Monday, November 9.” “ The Southern Club gave a tea. Saturday, November 14.” “ The initiation and banquet of Cacchia Caucchia Junior Society was held Friday, November 13.” “The first meeting of the Contributors’ Club was held Tuesday, November 17, for the purpose of organ- izing. On the next page is a card with a girl in bloomers upon it.—The Freshman recognizes that.—It stands for a Twentieth Century Party, which the Class of Ninety-eight gave to the Class of Nineteen-hundred, on November 20. “ Tuesday, December 7.—The French Club entertained by the French Consul, M. Ellinger, where Madam Bornet is spending the winter.” “ Thursday, December 0.—Dr. Welsh talked to the Biology Club, on ‘ Heredity and Disease.’ ” ” Friday, December 18.—Christmas vacation began ; only a few girls remained in the College Home, most of them went to their homes.” “ Thursdays 7 and 21.—Dr. Metcalf introduced the theory of evolution before the Biology Club.” ” Dr. Rogers will deliver a course of six lectures before the students and their friends.” ” January 21.— Story of Creation. ’ ” ” January 22.— Story of Flood.’ ” “ January 27.—‘ Early Migrations.’ ” “January 28.— Early Settlements.’ ” “ February —‘ Where was the Garden of Eden ? ’ ” “ February 5.— Abraham and the King of the East. ’ ” “ Friday, January 22.—Chemical Association gave a most enjoyable evening to its friends. Tjie experiments went off beautifully. ” “ January 26.—Miss Walker, national president of College Settlement Association, was entertained at an informal tea by our chapter. After the tea she gave a talk on the work of the Association. ” As the Freshman turned the next page she found that she had come to the end; there was just one more note : “ January 28.—‘Day of Prayer.’ Prayer meeting held in the morning at 8.30 o’clock. Service in the chapel at n o’clock. Dr. A. Coke Smith from Lynchburg. Virginia, preached a fine sermon. In the evening the Dean talked to the Y. W. C. A. ” The Freshman closed the book and lay back among the cushions, thinking of the events recorded there. A few minutes later the Junior, having finished her work, looked up to see what had kept her visitor so quiet, and found her still dreaming over the last year. 104 Build me more stately mansions, O my soul! — The Chambered . autilns.

Nineteen-hundred, by the hand and together they walked out into the woods one Autumn day. But Nineteen-hundred was very young and soon was tired, so Ninety-eight took her in her arms and carried her. At last, however, she too grew weary and could go no further. “ Let us lie down under a tree and rest awhile,” they said. So they both lay down and slept. Toot ! Toot ! came the shrill whistle of an approaching train, and Nineteen-hundred jumped up rubbing her eyes. Then she beheld, and lo ! they were on the outskirts of a great city. “ Come, sister, let us go on. ” said Ninety-eight. So they went hand-in-hand into the town. Now strange women met them wearing bloomers and rainy-day skirts, and overhead they saw most curious birds lloating about—and these, they were told, were flying machines. Then, said the two sisters. “Surely we have slept into the twentieth century. ” And behold, as they entered a great railway station, strange sights met their eyes. There in the ticket-office in a “ very artistic bonnet.” sat Miss Minnie Gray counting her tickets, while a baggage-mistress gaily jingled her checks. Soon there entered the letter-carrier, another merry maid in cap and brass buttons. Rushing to meet his train came an unhappy father with a baby and a huge valise in his arms, and two small children tugging at his coat- tails. They were more than he could manage alone and he was taking them to their grandmother, he explained. “ Let us leave these horrible scenes, said Ninety-eight. And they wandered on. At length they stood before a dwelling-house, from which could be heard the sound of weeping as of an infant. Then said Nineteen-hundred : “ Let us enter.” So they both went in. Mrs. Green was at the office, Bridget was off for three days in the jury-box, and the bewildered head of this household had been left to cook dinner and take care of the baby. Just then the census enumerator—another “ new woman ” came upon the scene. Then cried Nineteen-hundred : “ Woe is me ! What are we coming to?” Bs� t even as she spoke, it seemed as if some kind fairy touched with her magic wand each one, and once more was order restored. Then Nineteen-hundred awoke, and, behold ! it was a dream ! 10? H Review of the “ Storm and Stress period. Thk Nigiit Bkfokk Commencement Dav. • IT V LIFELONG companion, The Cap, and I hang here awaiting the morrow. Four long years have we been VI together, and both of us, alas ! bear signs of the struggles through which we have passed. Much as I regret to acknowledge it, it seems to me that there must have been but indifferent fundamental substance in The Cap. and the possibilities of development, from the very beginning, must have been scanty. Instead of har- monious growth, there has been twisting and warping. Those four fierce champions, “Hot,” “Cold,” “Moist” and “Dry,” have come off victorious. Still, when I remember how The Cap must have been hampered by her inheritance of underlying pasteboard principles, I feel assured that no environment, however favorable, could have helped her. I respect her upward warp, her blunt corners and her attenuated tassel as signs of honest if hopeless conflict. I must have been better tilted by Nature to survive in this struggle for knowledge. While I am only saved from being a thing of shreds by being one of patches, yet I have acquired an individuality, a dignity and a polish— linguistic, economic, scientific and psychologic—of which I hardly dared dream in my younger days. I remember so well the first day The Cap and I went into chapel together, along with the other new Caps and Gowns. We were all alike then, save a few inches in length or in breadth. All of us went to everything that first year. We were well grounded in our Freshman studies. We gained also, that year, a knowledge of law and order, based upon Roberts and strengthened by class-meeting precedents. In our second year we Caps and Gowns began to differentiate. Various tendencies manifested themselves. An interest in science fastened itself upon my folds. The dear delights of physics are present with me yet. Per- haps it was emulation of the torsion pendulum which suggested to The Cap its method of procedure. Other mem- ories which 1 refer back to this time—of hidden perils in the paths of knowledge, of mischievous nails and other totally depraved inanimate things—have visible reminders which prevent any blissful forgetfulness. This long snag, toward the bottom, in front, was made by falling up stairs one day in a wild rush to get to that room at the end of the hall before the door was locked. In my third year came much broadening of thought. In the band of glossiness on my back, due to the fric- tion of the tops of sundry chair-backs, is a stratum of economic polish. Free trade or protection, mono-metallism or bi-metallism, socialism or anarchy—these were questions which helped to age me. Economy and logic combined to deprive me of many advantages. Through the fear that my dciicatc organization might not be able to stand the 108 strain of my Junior and Senior years, I was frequently given a day of rest. So it happened that while I was allowed to listen occasionally to a lecture on chemistry or biology, 1 was rarely permitted to gain experience by practical work. I would hang limply outside the door of the chemical laboratory, saturating myself with faint, rare odors ; some cling to me still. Once I ventured in. That arch-enemy of all delicate fabrics. 113S04 was in use. A drop fell upon my sleeve. I shall carry the scar of the meeting with me always. After a live earthworm had escaped from its resting place and had squirmed over me, it was no great deprivation not to be permitted to continue my biological studies. In this my last year, the greatest knowledge of all has been vouchsafed me : the consciousness of self; the consciousness of a self whose attributes are permanence, identity and activity. Moreover, I have learned that con- duct is not three-fourths of life, but is all of life. Knowing this. I peacefully await the morrow, regretful of mistakes and failures, but conscious that 1 have done my mohair l est. FEW THINGS in this world are more dangerous to encounter than the curiosity of an Oriental, especially if that Oriental be a privileged character. Although much has been said of Li Hung Chang’s peculiarities, the half of the painfulness of his curiosity has never been told. The account of his visit to The Woman's College of Baltimore is a story that has escaped the vigilance of the newspaper reporters, and is now for the first time given to the world. It was at a late hour of a day in that memorable year of grace, ’96, when His Excellency appeared at the entrance of Goucher Hall. He was instantly recognized by his famous yellow jacket and the cap with the three- feathered peacock tail. His only companion was an interpreter. As he entered the Hall, he made a dignified bow and announced : “ 1 have come to see everything in this woman's school.'' 110 He cast his eyes in a comprehensive glance around 'he room, until they rested upon the bulletin-board toward which he instantly advanced with an air of undisguised curiosity. With a wave of his hand so peremptory that the guide understood his command before the interpreter translated it. he said : “Tell me what this is for.” “This is where all the official communications of the institution are placed.” “Then read all the official communications to me. The interpreter began, pointing as he read to notices with titles such as : “ Lacrosse—Johns Hopkinses. I-ehigh.” '• For Sale Cheap—'Pennis Racquet.” ” Liberal Reward—Yale College Pin.” ” Y. V. C. A. Meeting.” ” Peabody Institute Lectures. “ Lost—Silver Hat-pin. “ Basket Ball Game—Sophomore vs. Freshmen.” Pocket Kodak Pictures—5c. apiece. The visitor’s interest increased with each notice, and when he saw the drawing of a fountain pen with comical face and limbs, beneath which was the legend, “ Lost, Strayed or Stolen.” he remarked with a broad smile : “These official communications are very interesting. Are you the president of this College? The answer that his guide was superintendent of the college buildings satisfied him. and lie next turned his attention to the shield of the Class of Ninety-six, which hung upon the wall. Il s admiration was evident, and when he comprehended that the names inscribed there were those of the graduates of the College, lie murmured : “ Ah ! Ancestral tablet ! Very pretty indeed.” Moving on a few feet, His Excellency came to the door of the cloak room. A few solemn caps and gowns hanging on the hooks afforded a magnetic attraction for the most curious man in the world. With an air of absorbed interest he lifted a gown from its hook, critically fingered the well-worn alpaca and examined the curiously-shaped mortar-board, and tin 11. seized with a sudden inspiration, he triumphantly donned the strange attire. He was not yet satisfied, however, but insisted on having its use explained to him. After many vain attempts to comprehend, the light of understanding suddenly dawned in his face, and lie exclaimed : “Oh. I see. These black jackets are a sign of rank just like mv yellow one, and the tassels in the cap correspond to my peacock feathers.” The charms of the cloak room having now been exhausted, lie suddenly demanded : “ Where are the women ?” He was greatly disappointed to learn that the recitations for the day were over, but greatly pleased when he discovered that a reception was to be held there that evening, at which he would have a fine opportunity of gazing upon all of “the women.” His delight and evident determina- nt tion to attend reminded the superintendent of buildings that the president should he informed of the arrival of his visitors. Leaving them in the Post Office Department to study out the intricacies of the system, he hastened to the home of the president to convey the news. A quarter of an hour later, when he returned with the president. Li Hung Chang and his interpreter had vanished. Whereat the president remarked slyly : Celestial visitors do not always remain where they are bidden.” The yellow jacket was found, however, at the entrance of Bennett Hall. The strangers were standing there opposite each other with a look of deep concern on their faces, which only increased at the sight of the two genii of the place. The introductions were scarcely over when His Excellency asked : “ Do you punish your pupils so severely then ? ” “ Punish them ? ” “Oh, we know all about it. We have been in your dungeon here and seen all the instruments of torture. The ducking-pond and the pillory are bad enough ; I have seen them in my own country. But those other horrible instruments—ugh ! ’ “ Horrible instruments ! Duck------- “Oh, we saw them all. My interpreter read all the names written over them—‘ Neck-twisting,' ‘ Arm-pull- ing,’ ‘Legdrawing’-------“ Whereupon the president hastily led them back to the gymnasium, from which they emerged some time later with relieved looks. His Excellency expressed great satisfaction, and directed his investigations to “ fresh woods and pastures new.” “ How old arc you?” he inquired politely, recalling the proper formalities which, in the excitement of the moment, he had forgotten. It is to be hoped that the president answered this truthfully, as well as the next question : “ What salary do you receive? ” “ Which of you is the king of this place,” he then queried. “ Oh ! then the other man is your prime min- ister? ” The shades of night brought the interview to a close, and Li Hung Chang and his companion went to the hotel to prepare for the reception. They were the first of the evening’s guests, appearing punctually on the stroke of eight. A Senior, one of the reception committee, had the honor of the first introduction to the distinguished visitor, an honor which was not without its disadvantages. “ How old are you ? Where do you live? Are you married ? When do you expect to be married ? ” were questions that followed each other so rapidly that the Senior could never remember how she answered them. “ What are you going to do here to-night ? ” he next demanded. “ We have invited some of our friends to come up here to see us, and we expect to entertain them.” “ Do you invite any friends you please?” 112 “ Yes, provided the dean pleases, too. He is our prime min- ister. you know.” “ Oh ! We saw him this afternoon. Then he does not allow you to invite people he does not like? How does he know all your friends?” ' He knows some of them, and the rest he judges by their genealogical table and family history.” “Indeed! Is that all?” “No; besides that, we are obliged to give a detailed account of our acquaintanceship down to the time and place of our first meeting.” “ Yes, that is the way we judge of suitable husbands for our daughters in China. Who are the friends you have invited ?” “There is one of them now! Excuse me a moment, I want to introduce him to you.” After the introduction his insatiable curiosity observed the usual formalities in regard to the young man's age, occupation, and salary, in proper Chinese fashion. Such was the discomfiture of the victim of this ordeal that it provoked ill-suppressed mirth on the part of the Senior. But her turn had come. Looking at her smilingly, His Excellency inquired with an air of child-like innocence: “ When are you going to be married to this friend ? ” Not once, nor twice, nor twenty times did the Senior and her friend endeavor to escape from their interested visitor. The Ancient Mariner could not have been more untiring in his attentions to the ill-fated wedding-guest. Not till the last of the company were departing did His Excellency rise to take a regretful farewell. He ordered his sedan-chair, which was promptly brought in by six Chinamen and placed near the door. He seated himself with an air of dignified importance, smiled a smile of condescending approval, and we saw him no more. As he vanished through the doorway someone murmured sollo voce : “ His name is Li Hung Chang, which, being interpreted, signifies, A Leviathan’s Heinous Curiosity.’ ” 113 'Che Isatin pony's Complaint I'd like to say a word or two— I know it’s not my place To speak, unless I ’m spoken to.

[SoHo voce, as he glances at her flowers, and leads her to a seat.] I’ll bet a dollar Ned Waite sent those flowers, and if I can find out anything that will give him a grain of encouragement, poor chap, it will be worth while. [Aloud.] Here is a cozy corner I discovered early in the evening. Will you sit down ? ” [Pause.] Miss A.—“ What is it that interests you so much, Mr. Jackson? You haven’t said a word to me since we came here.” FredJaekson (plunging in)—“ Forgive me if I seemed rude; I was merely looking at your marguerites. They are, indeed, daisies, in more senses than one. I never saw such beauties, and they arc as fresh as the proverbial one ” Miss A.—“ Yes, they are lovely, anti fresh, too. as you say, yet they came all the way from New York to-day.” Fred Jackson (aside)—“ Ah ! I’m on the right track. It’s a good thing, my boy, push it along ! [Aloud.] And you have friends in New York so late in the season ?” « 116 Miss A.—“ Yes, one or two who are plodding along through the summer heat, hard at work, while we lazy people are up here enjoying life and doing nothing.” Fred Jackson— ‘ Now, please don’t include me in that category, for I am going back to town tomorrow, and I shall try to find some such beautiful daisies as those—if they are your favorite flowers ? ” Miss A.—‘‘Yes, I am very fond of them, and these not only came from a friend, but bring me pleasant memories of a friend. [Rising.] Ah ! Here comes Mr. Hull. It does not seem possible that the waltz can be over so soon. Good-bye, and give my love to--New York.” Fred Jackson—“Yes, I will; good-bye.

(blushing slightly)—“It was so kind of you to send these pretty flowers [glancing down at her bouquet]. I never saw such beauties. You know they are my class-flower, and they always bring back such delightful memories of college days.” Ned Waite (aside)—‘‘So those are the memories Fred Jackson told me about? Hang it all, I ’ll not give up yet, anyhow. [Aloud.] Will you answer me now ?” Miss A.

If she ’s pulling petals for me there’s some hope yet.” Miss A.— ' One I love, two I love, three I love I say, four I love with all my heart, and five I cast away, six he loves, seven she loves, eight they both love, nine he comes, ten he tarries, eleven he courts, and twelve he 116 marries.

And for the name you said ? ” Miss A. (blushing, but feigning surprise)—“ Why, of course it’s true ? Do n’t you suppose I love my own Ninety-eight f The daisies I pull for her always come out the same way, because that is always the truth, and you see some of the things would not apply. For instance, I could not marry Ninety-eight, you know.” Ned Waite (bitterly)—“No, but you could marry me, and that is what I hoped you would promise to do, but if you are such a coquette as all that [lifting his hat and turning to go,] I can only say good-bye.” Miss A.—“ Oh, Ned ! [in a tone that brings him to a standstill.] No, do n’t come back now, it is time for dinner, but if you care to come this evening, I have something I want to tell you.” Clothes-Sag emigration I ONG was the hall, and wide and tall, W Twas dark and still that night. A little mouse sat, all furry and fat, A-nibbling at something white. On the slippery lloor, outside of each door. Stood clothes-bags, a motley procession : One lean, and one tall, one fat and one small, With a most comfortable, stuffed expression I One bag, all in white, whose collar was tight, Stood straight with an unbending grace. She was yet proud and stately, for she came here but lately. With a hand-painted flower on her lace. A fat, awkward bag. with a yellowish tag. Whose sides stuck out queer, like a goat, Made fun of this fairy, so proud and so airy, And called her a “ foolish llip-llote. ” Madly she frowned, and turned her head round. And wept silky tears in her lace ; Then a faint, fearful ripping, and cracking and stripping. Resounded throughout all the place. 118 The fat, jovial churl, gave one glance at the girl, Then fell over himself in dismay ; For her hand-painted face, in its ruffle of lace, Had cracked and was falling away ! In a tone of remorse, he whispered quite hoarse : “ Get a wiggle down there in the hall! Our friend. Miss Hand-Painted—grows pale— Oh ! she’s fainted ! Air ! Air ! I say ! Help !—You all ! ” They rustled and glided, they slipped and they slided, They tumbled to the cTvator shaft ; And with pulling and tugging, and hauling and lugging, Miss Hand-Paint was rolled in a draught. Then a silence profound fell on them. There’s the sound Of footsteps out in the hall. The laundress appeared. She cried out, as she peered : “ Well, I never ! Ef this don’ beat all ! ” Not till this day could the maids find a way To account for that ghostly migration : Hut the mouse told it all. with a sarcastic drawl. At his New-Year’s Eve celebration. liu H ©W and Others THERE CERTAINLY was nothing unusual in the fact that Meg’s room was full of girls that night. Meg’s room was always full of girls, because it was just the place to feel at home in and Meg and Jane were always in for a good time. And there is another fact that to us did not seem unnatural: that the rooms should be called Meg’s when there was a Jane, too ; but Meg’s was an energetic, wide-awake presence, that in a pleasant, rest- ful way seemed to pervade everything around her. The study, to the eye of a New England housewife, would have seemed a hopeless confusion ; to the mind of the college girl, it was just the place—a veritable Bohemia, where china, cushions and divans reigned for the benefit of us all. In fact, the criticism passed by some women who were being shown about the Hall had been : “That room seems too frivolous for any student. How short-sighted they were ! Had they given a thought to the pic- tures they would have detected a love of the deeper things in art ; had they lifted the dainty curtains of the book- case they would have found much besides “ light literature. Meg Ripley was a girl who never let you see much of her real self, not because she put another self in evi- dence—she was always natural; but the real self was too deep for you to find. Many of her friends even would have been surprised to know that she was the most thoroughly-in-earnest student in college. But there I am, leaving my point in a way which will make you think I have been reading my genial friend DeQuincey again and have “caught ” from him digressiveness. As I said, there was nothing unusual in this meeting of the girls, yet from it came the “issues of life for several of us. “ How the children do chatter to-night, said Meg in a mock querulous tone, all the time smiling at one of the aforesaid “children” who, thro’ all the chattering, found interest enough for herself in her Queen Meg’s face. It was foolish of us, I suppose, but all of us Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and “children” loved the bright, earnest, half-stately girl. “I should say they did, the magpies,” sighed Marion, coming back from Dreamland. “Let 's sing and drown them out— “ Our college days must come to an end, In a few days, in a few days ; Unless some----” “Oh, not that, you thoughtless Junior ! Do you realize that Ninety-seven has just six weeks more to live ? “ What will 1 ever do without you, Meg, and all the girls ! I shall go wild with loneliness next year in these rooms------. 120 “Come now, Jane ; you evidently are trying to entertain our guests, but you vc chosen not quite the best topic to make us gay to-night. Give me that banjo, please. Our muscles, too. we cultivate, We can swim, and fence,.and spar; We can ‘ skin the cat at a lively rate, And climb like a jolly tar. If there's anything more a maiden can Accomplish, let us know, For surely there is never a man Such muscle and brain can show. “ Dum-de-dum, de—come on, girls ! Be sure to sing this fortissimo : “ Then here’s to The Woman’s College brave, Who taught us these things to do; We ’ll wear her colors to the grave— Three cheers for the Gold and Blue ! Smith, Yassar, Bryn Mawr and all the rest, Their fate you must all deplore ; The Woman’s College is quite the best— U The College of Baltimore. “There, 1 knew we’d leel better after singing,” said Marion. “ But, really, Meg, I can't imagine life as quite so happy away from Alma Mater. And then came the surprising thing. Sliding to the edge of her steamer-chair and leaning forward in her eagerness, Meg gave us, for the first and last time in our college life a view of her deeper self. As I said before, it changed many of us in a marked degree, and the little Freshman who adored her, sat in awe-struck admiration. It came, as these long-delayed expressions often come, without preamble or introduction. “ Well, Marion, it seems to me we will then begin to pay our debts. Here we stay at college four years in such an abundance that we hardly notice truths which some‘are toiling all their lives to find.' With very little effort of our own we get the hopes, ambitions and civilization which it has taken centuries of struggle for the world to gain. Is it right for us to take it all and give nothing ? If education and environment have meant so much to us, is it not our work to give to those who cannot have without us ? When we realize that a child becomes largely what circumstances make him, it seems very hopeful for the nation and the race if we will only do our best toward making the right circumstances. Of course, we like fun, and life is made for happiness, but it seems to me there is no greater happiness than in loving 4 our neighbors as ourselves.’ ’’ There was a moment of silence around Meg as she sat flushed and trembling with her boldness and now ashamed of having been “ preachy, ” but we cased ourselves in peals of laughter as we recognized Freshman 121 Tom's voice from her room across the hall, .vhere they were cramming Livy; “an iterative subjunctive, 1 am sure.” Just then the bell rang, and as we started down the hall to our rooms, I found myself humming : “ Pure as that breeze Be the lives of the women who join in the call, Long life to our College of fair Baltimore.

ON a hot day in July, that was hot even high in White Sulphur, Sat sweet Priscilla, the fair, in a hammock in front of her cottage, Humming a popular air, and busily knitting golf stockings. Gowned in a grey skirt was she, with gaiters to match and a shirt waist. Pretty the picture she formed on the porch with its framework of creeper ; So thought John Aldrich, and smiled and said to himself, “ Now Miles Stamford ’ Out of the way, I can have some small satisfaction with her ; ” So on his way from the spring, he strolled to the steps of the cottage. Smiling a welcome, Priscilla attempted to rise as he entered, Gave it up soon in despair, for getting up out of a hammock Is quite a feat to perform, even though the girl’s feet may l c pretty. So she leaned gracefully back and posed ’gainst a pink sofa-cushion. Saying, “ I knew it was you when I heard you come whistling ‘Oh promise, ’ For I was thinking of you. as I sat out here knitting and counting-- Do not you wish that for you were intended this gay pair of golf hose ? All of the girls knit them now ; I've finished eleven already.” Thus she went rattling along, while he stood by her, silent with pleasure. That she had thought thus of him. He remembered that day in the winter When, from a jolly sleigh-ride, they had both come in looking like snow men ; How she had laughed and had made most delicious hot tea by the fireside. I lad he but spoken then, perhaps not in vain had he spoken : Now't was entirely too late, for Miles had destroyed all his prospects ; Then he sat down, but not by the side of the girl in the hammock, For though Priscilla’s no prig, she knows what is pert and what's proper: Sat on the steps, while she talked of the hops of the Sulphur Spring’s season, Talked of last season abroad, and of Miles who would sail on the morrow. “ I have been thinking all day, ’’ said with longing this up-to-date maiden, “ Dreaming all night and thinking all day of the elegant bike roads in England. Oh, they are just out of sight, fine as silk for spinning and scorching ! There are bicycles to burn ! Indeed it is fine, I can tell you. Then there arc such dandy inns where the cyclists all gather to gossip, 186 And the golf links are so fine in England and Scotland and Ireland. Call me a crank on the subject, I cannot help it : I almost Wish myself back in old England, the roads and the links here arc wretched. ” Thereupon answered the youth, “ Indeed I do not condemn you. Oft too have I wished myself again in the dear town of Oxford, There 'mongst its cloisters so calm, to dream and to read and to study, Or, like a pilgrim, to go from one great cathedral to others. Stratford-on-Avon I love, and Grasmere and all the Lake Region. Scotland’s dear Highlands and I.ochs, and the beautiful Lakes of Killarncy, Ah, but I bore you with this, now tell me more of last Summer.” ‘ No, but indeed you do not,—your Britain is lovelier than mine is. Would I could see with your eyes ! Oh, well, did they choose you class poet ! Oh, by the way, won’t you have some of these marrons Miles sent me? No ? do n't you like them ? Indeed ! I think they 're the smoothest things going. Oh, have you been on his yacht, the ‘ May Flower,’ he is to cross in ? Would I were going, too. We Thurstons have all loved the water Since that great day long ago, when our fathers set sail in the ‘ May Flower.’ ” Glowed her blue eyes, and her cheeks took on the deep Hush of excitement. Aldrich could stand it no longer, but cried in a vehement manner, 4 Ah, what chance has a man who cannot take a girl yachting. Ne’er made a century run. nor an excellent drive in a foursome. Why, why was I not made like Miles, to be a captain in foot ball. Stroke-oar in the class crew, and everything else girls are proud of? Naught will they have of us men who, they think, are just mere 4 ballad mongers ' Truth was it Great Chaucer said, that girls 4 follow the forms of fortune.’ ” ‘ No, Mr. Aldrich, not so, Chaucer ever insulted us women. We care for what we have not. Now I was the stroke-oar at college, Captain of basket ball teams, and everything else that was going. Therefore I value less power in men that’s the same strength that I have. Miles and I had lots of fun, that is all. so don’t be so foolish.” 4 No,” went on John, 44 he’s your style, a handsome, athletic young giant. Oh, it will be a long time ere you take your 4 last ride together ’ ; ’Twill be 4 the long road ’ for all time, I’m thinking, from all indications. May he be worthy, that's all. But, indeed, I know no one who could be.” Archly the maiden smiled, and with eyes overrunning with laughter. Said, in a tremulous voice, 44 Why don ’t you speak for yourself, John? ” 126 Cbe Story of f ive kittle ©oats. IT WAS the night before, the very night before the thirteenth, an ominous date, as all believers in signs will admit. There seemed to be an all-per- vading senseof uncertainty and suspense. Even the moon found difficulty, woman-like, in deciding whether to shine forth in all her majesty or only peep half-questioningly from behind the clouds which hung low, but thin, like a filmy veil cast over the heavens to add to the half obscurity and mysticism of the night. The clocks of the city had but just chimed the eleven strokes which indi- cated that it lacked only an hour of the momentous day, when a black cat, sym- bol of stealth and witchery, stole silently «long the fence-tops of Love Grove alley—on mischief bent, surely. For in some mysterious way this wise cat had learned what Friday was to be in The Woman’s College, and. like the omnipresent reporter, was eager to gather any driblets of news which might be caught up in the silent watches of the night. Suddenly the cat paused, for there was a sound of a closing door, and at almost the same instant there rounded the corner, into the alley from 23d street, a gay little party, a novel little company. It consisted of five little goats out for their constitutional. They came dancing along, chatting gaily, though in subdued tones. As they approached the silent listener on the fence-post, he from his point of vantage peered at them curiously. The first of the party was a goat of evident gaiety, and a friskiness in his step betokened training at the hand of Terpsichore. Around his neck he wore a broad satin ribbon of grey and Bordeaux. At the side of this goat walked with dignity an animal who by reason of his seniority, assumed a judicial air toward his companions. Each horn bore in its tip a tiny gold anchor with mystic letters engraved thereon. The last three members of the company roused great curiosity in the mind of the silent spectator. They seemed to be assisting the third in locomotion. But the mystery was explained when the latter, a goat with a wh.te crescent in his forehead, observed : “ Well, it’s fortunate for me we don 't have a convention banquet here every year. My nerves would certainly be shattered by the strain. I have drunk toasts to myself with apollonaris till I feel like a Yellowstone geyser inside.” The sphinx-faced goat who walked beside him patted him fraternally on the head, remarking, with a smile : “Now, perhaps, you get our point of view and can understand in a measure the comfort of being one, a law unto ourselves.” At this juncture the goat on the left, on whose horns bows of black and gold fluttered brightly in the light night breeze, spied in a crevice a tin-can, which bore upon its somewhat battered expanse the remains of a 127 J gorgeous rod tomato. Seizing upon it with avidity, and a cry “Eureka! at last,” lie added in the intervals of mastication: “I have n't had a morsel of tin for three weeks, and no Chauvcncts, no logics or note hooks for a whole fortnight. Having by this time reached the coping around hirst Church, the little cavalcade halted and seated itself in the shadow of the lofty tower. The conversation turned to methods of initiation. The next morning, great was the sorrow of a little mistress when the pride of her heart, her pet cat—Jet—appeared with every coal black hair turned a ghastly white. But it was little wonder. They talked of blindfoldings, of brandings, and irons heated to white heat, of mustang bucks, or marmaduke’s leaps from the uppermost pinnacle of the tall tower looming black above them, while talk of chalky tombs and dead men's bones fell from their lips like the toads and snakes of the fairy tale. Suddenly, however, there sounded from the distance .the noise of a fog-horn, and two grinning skeletons with well-bleached bones shone out ghastly against the blackness of the interior at two upper windows of Goucher Hall. “ Ah, there is the signal for return, and the skeletons of the feasts beckon us,” exclaimed the Nestor of the company. Good-nights were hastily exchanged, a Panhellenic grip given all round, and the five little goats parted, two to hurry toward Goucher Hall, and the other three to scurry away toward the Annex, where with the skill of goats they butted in the door and stole quietly up to their respective rooms. As the last echo of their stealthly hoofsteps sounded thro’ the deserted streets the clocks in the distant towers stuck twelve and Pledging Day was come. l® Gases. « SOME people called her a llirt. But the doctor did n't mind When they told him she would surely hurt His practice, and he was blind ; But he laughed and shook his head ; “ Her cases are many, indeed.

The Dean (in Logic class)—“ Miss A., convert the proposition, ‘ It rains. ’ ” Miss A. (promptly)—“ The proposition, ‘It rains’ must be converted per accidens, thus: ‘It is raining some,’ that is. it is drizzling.’ ” H Case of Substitution. Colored Man (entering a butcher-shop)—“ I want a piece o’ veal, sah.” Clerk—“ What part of the veal do you want ?” Colored Man (doggedly)—“ No particular part; jus' a piece o’ veal.

He—“ 1 think I 've known you long enough ; I think I ’ll call you Madge.” She—And I think I ’ll call you down.” Che Dean's pun.

(The paleness was from overwork On Donnybrook, they say.) Professor Garnett lectured on. The room was growing hot. A glow o’erspread the maiden’s face ; Her neighbor on the spot Exclaimed, “ My, but your face is red And swift the answer came, “ ’Tis a reflection, don't you know, From the Professor's name. 1 151 I ’• ]Not tbc 'jfamtor. v IT WAS during the time of the Christian Endeavor Convention at Washington. Two girls, interested in college, decided to stop over in Baltimore to visit The Woman’s College. At the door of that institution they were met by a guide whose courtesy, considering their previous experience with janitors, was truly refreshing. From the third Moor to the basement they carefully explored every room, every picture, every curiosity. Crossing the street to the gymnasiums and biological laboratory, they were shown everything fropi the Zander machines to the habitations of the solitary laboratory snake, and the place of exitus for many a luckless feline. “ Lasciati ogni speranza, voi ch' nitrate.” Evidently their favorable impression of the College was entirely owing to the efforts of the janitor, and these girls were not slow to appreciate his superiority over his kind : so they determined to reward him accordingly. They had learned their lesson well in the halls of Congress. At the floor of the hall of learning they paused and offered the customary tip. Impressed as they had been by the ease of manner of this singularly brilliant janitor, they were totally unprepared for the courtliness of his bow and the ominous calm of his reply : “It is not our custom, young ladies, to receive tips for favors shown.” There arc certain moments in the life of every one when a feeling of extreme youth oppresses one—but fora janitor. But it wasn’t their fault if he was too proud to take money ; they were sure they had n’t l een to blame. Afterwards, recounting the adventure to an authority and describing the subject of their discomfiture : a rather elderly man, frail-looking and sensitive to cold, burnsides and glasses, they found it was—not the janitor. Verily, verily, mutton-chop whiskers are not the badge of the janitor. 152 In Bconotnics. Miss L.

Do you believe that the exchanging of microbes upon such an occasion is harmful?” She (hurriedly)—“Yes, indeed I do.” He (eagerly)— ’ Make me an invalid for life. then, won’t you ?” Crusts and JVlonopolies. Said a very ignorant little maid. Who wished, however, to please : ‘ Oh. tell me what is the difference Between trusts and monopolies? ” Then that student of economics smiled. That student at J. II. U., •Trust means to put your faith in man. A monopoly—well, that’s just you.” 1 8 Gravitation Overcome. President G.—“ I would like to see you in my office.

WAS on the third floor that this maid did dwell. m. She was beautiful, popular, clever and swell; Or that’s what the Freshman thought. ’T was one night in May she received the flowers, As mysterious as though from elfin bowers ; But she guessed by whom they were bought. ’T was that night, with effusion and grace most rare, And all the kisses she had to spare, That the Freshman she thanked with a vim. ’T was the next morning the maiden fair opened her mail; She read a thin note, and fairly turned pale : For her flower-bill was enclosed within. 1. � ?

Another kind has the Film Cartridge system by which it can be LOADED IN DAYLIGHT. Has carefully tested lenses. We test all those used in our cameras and none but good lenses can pass our inspection. Has sets of three stops, improved rotary shutters, finders and tripod sockets, is well made and beautifully finished—THAT'S THE KODAK KIND. pocket Ikobahs, Bullets anb BuIIs=Epcs Have these features. Pocket Kodaks and Bullets use either film cartridges or glass plates. Other cameras do not have these features—we hold the patents. Our booklet ‘'Cartridge Photography, tells ail about it.

WE DIVORCE MAN AND WOMAN V From the hard saddles and hard-padded saddles and point them to The “ Hygeia ” Pneumatic Bicycle Saddle. There is great danger to both man and woman in riding the old saddles. Bicycle riding is a Godsend to woman, so considered by leading physicians over the country ; provided, however, that a hygenic saddle is used, such as The '• I Iygeia,” otherwise much harm is done. If mothers knew the harm done their daughters with the old saddles, they would insist upon the use of The “ I Ivgeia” and see that their daughters’ wheels were equipped with The “ I Iygeia’’ Saddle. All high grade bicycles will be equipped with The ” Hygeia ” if the buyer demands it. Use of The “ 1 Iygeia prevents headache. Sec that your new wheel has this saddle—The “ Hygeia ”—or do not buy it.
