Rhymed_ Reviews The Hidden Children (By Robert W. Chambers. D. Apple- ton & Co.) 'O him the war-whoop’s awful peal, The tomahawk and knife were trifles ;— I speak of Ensign E. Loskiel Of Morgan's celebrated Rifles — The hardy, buckskin-shirted clan, Inured to cold and meagre rations, That led the van of Sullivan Against the Iroquoisan Nations. Who guided on the little corps?— No ranger, rifleman or trooper, But Mayaro, the Sagamore, A proud Mohican out of Cooper. The Eries heard their battle yell; They got the Senecas’ angoras; They scalped the Mohawk braves, and fell Upon the painted Tuscaroras, But while our Ensign scouted through The woods, with pack and rifle laden, He found a little time to woo The lovely Lois, Mystic Maiden. The forest charm of potent strength That joins all Hidden Children, bound them. (1 can’t explain the thing at length Because they've cut my space, con- found them!) But when to dark Biskoonah’s maw Loskiel had sent the Red Enchanter And saved his future ma-in-law, The girl was pledged to him, in- stanter. So lend an ear while Chambers sings Of chiefs and scouts and troopers burly. This beats his other recent things,— It isn’t quite so girly-girly. Arthur Guiterman. Ink that is Superior in: Quality Color Consistency and Permanency If it isn’t an Ideal Itisn’ta Waterman’s. Shortly before the start of the Euro- pean war a New York gentleman made a two hours’ trip in the Zep- pelin airship “ Sachsen” with twenty other passengers. Nearly 100 miles were covered at an altitude of 2,000 feet. During the passage, post-cards, sold on the ship, were addressed by all on board. Eighteen of the 21 passengers had fountain pens in their pockets. Every one was Waterman's Ideal and every one wrote without hesitation or blemish. Thus con- tinues the evidence of the popularity and convenience of Waterman's Ideals. Always ready, always accu- rate. Made to last for many years of active and useful service. Prices $2.50 to $50.00. Booklet on request. Sold at the Best Retail Stores Everywhere. L. E.

At a convention of American periodical editors it was announced that hereafter no stories or text of any kind would be jumped from the body of the paper into the advertising pages. “It is time,” said the resolution, “that the comfort of the readers should be considered.” Vice-president Marshall is taking lessons in parliamentary law, in order that he MARMAY MFG.
