people will doubt less take occasion to visit Denver at tho time of the convention and inci dentally see the sights of that part of the country Many side trips can be made easily from the capital of Colo rado to points famous for their scenic charms or for their human interest such as Pikes peak the Royal gorge and the gold fields of the Cripple Creek district One of the excursions which are popular is that offered by a railroad giving a trip of sixty miles in both di rections affording passengers the op portunity to stop at various points and gather the magnificent mountain wild flowers which abound 1 There is no such thing as Democrat or Republican in Denver when it comes to civic pride and work for the general 5Q0d of the city Republicans are work ing with Democrats in the movement to give every person who visits Denver a good time Lnuer the inspiration or the example of the mayor R W Speer who is untiring in labors for the mu nicipality the citizens generally are preparing to do their full duty in the matter of hospitality There has been a remarkably united effort to increase the beautiful appearance of the city Twenty thousand shade trees were planted under the direction of the mu nicipal authorities this spring and a contest has been arranged by virtueof which a prirt will be av irk for the lawn which i Lrpt lt during the coming summer Ornamental gates and columns

years ago a gath ering of the wits at the Maccabacus endeavored to come to a decision as to tlie real definition of a schemlhl They could not agree as to the origin of the word and they found It equally fiard to define what exactly a scliemihl Is The nearest shot says the Jewish Chronicle of London was that of Stu art M Samuel M P who said that he could tell a story that would illus trate exactly what was meant by the term There was a poor man who could not find anything to do What ever lie tried failed and when he sought employment he could not ob tain it Day after day he sat schemihl like on a bench in the public gardens waiting for some one to offer him work but the offer never came For a whole year he sat thus each day un til at last he attracted the attention of a merchant who said to himself I want some one at my warehouse and I think I shall offer the job to that poor man who is always sitting so pa tiently and wistfully as though he is looking for employment Tomorrow I shall speak to him The morrow came and the poor man started for his usual walk to his usual seat As how ever lie was leaving his house he said to his wife My dear I have been out like this for a whole year and noth ing has ever come of it Today I think I shall stay at home And he did And he missed the merchant That is the schemihl A LIFE OF THE ROOFS Gardens Flourish on the Housetops of Florence Italy There still exists in Italian cities a life of the roofs that is distinct and characteristic and of which the mere foreigner and tourist is entirely un aware Particularly fs this the case In Florence Mount to the top floor of one of these grim big palaces standing in some gloomy sunless street often approached by a stern forbidding door way and dark steep stairs and you will hold your breath with wonder at the surprise that awaits you for here before your eyes stretches an unfa miliar city a red and green city of wide expanse and varying altitudes a city no less architecturally beautiful than the one you have left below and enlivened too most unexpectedly by verdure In the very heart of the city on its topmost apex there is no trace of grime The air is pure and whole some Indeed its breezes are charged with no small suggestion of sea and mountain breath As for the smoke one would expect to find hanging above the roofs of a densely populated city it is conspicuous by its absence and only at the hour of meals does some faint blue column rise for the briefest space into the atmosphere Ilelen Zimmerns A Florentine Roof Garden in Cen tury Grant the Hero When General Grant was seized with his fatal illness in the autumn of 1SS4 he appeared before tho world in an en tirely new character From being view ed as the stern uncompromising and conquering military commander the revelation of his simple resignation in the face of great suffering claimed for him new fame as a hero in another sense His last battle with the great conqueror destined him for grander laurels than were gained on any of his many triumphant folds It was the purely human side of his nature that then appealed to the general sympathy of mankind Thus his last and only surrender was his greatest victory If it had been otherwise history would have cheated itself of an example of Christian fortitude the like of which has been seldom recorded Dr G F Shrady in Century New York Church Choirs Singing in a New York choir has several advantages one of which is the long contract said a soprano I sang in churches in four different cities be fore coming here and everywhere I was hired from month to mouth That is the custom in most churches in oth er towus The trustees are afraid to sign a years contract on account of the hot water they will get into if the choir proves unsatisfactory Congrega tions in other cities are very finicky and stubborn in the matter of music They dont take things as easy as the people do here Tbeaverage New York congregation is the most obliging body on earth Unless a choir is hopelessly bad nobody interferes so the trustees feel safe in hiring the singers by the year New York Sun Scientific Sammy Sammy said Mrs Tucker who was showing him through the geolog ical department of the museum these are called aerolites They are suppos ed to be fragments of some planet that has been broken up They come with in the attraction of
