Marshfield, In spite of tho fsct that there wero no public exercieeo in celebration of Mcm prial day Day at MarebQeld, beyond the imple rites observed by the ol, soldiers, the people generally showed a disposi tion to keep the day on individual ac count.

A Circe, with powcru to please, darzle and chnrm by Its enchantments, while It allures, lulls and mystltles, this tlower of sleep seem ed to dmvx by somo occult process from the earth tho elixir of gold, unfolding Its blooms of gold ns beacons proclaim, j lug, "We are blooming above rich mines of gold." There Is ever a mystery about the poppy. It Is a weird tlower. It Is al most sentient, with a life unknown to human kind. "While glory guards with , solemn trend the. bivouac of tho dead" i stealthily u seu of gore creeps over the' old battlefields. Wood red, the popples In waves and billows hold high carni val above the soil that covers tho slain. Lord Macau lay tmys of the battlellcld of Nccrwlnden: "The summer nfter the battle the soil, fertilised by 20.000 dead, broke forth Into millions of blood red popples. The trnvclcr from St. Troud to Tfrlemont who saw that vast field of rich scarlet stretching from Landcn to Ncerwlnden could hardly help fan eying that the figurative description of the Hebrew prophet wns literally ac complished: that "the earth was dis closing her blood and refusing to cover her slain."

A ICInor nml it Miller. Every reigning member of tho nob- cncollcrn dynnsty has been noted for his sense of fair play In dealing with his subjects. It Is said that tho Emperor Frederick tho Great wna greatly annoyed by tho presence of a tlour mill Hint stood closo by one of bis palaces In Derlln. Tho miller rqfused to sell his mill nnd Insisted that be should retain pos tcatrton of It na long na ho lived. Tho emperor stormed nt htm without avail and finally threatened to drlvo tho miller out by force and conOscnto his property. The dauntless miller replied to his threat by saying, "Thero nro still Judges In Derlln. your mnjesty." This reply, which has since becomo famous throughout Germany. Impress, cd the emperor so favorably that ho withdrew both his threat and hla re quest, nnd the flour mill Is standing to this day. Expected it Fluh t. A rifeshlre farmer garo hla herd lad die, Jamie, a half wJt, a ticket to admit him to a sacred recital In a neighbor ing town, to be given by local talent, nnd told the lad to bo sure to enjoy himself. Tho farmer was greatly surprised to find his servant lu tho kitchen long be fore the concAislou of the performance, nnd upon asking him why he had re turned from the recital Jamie replied: I "Wecl, mutator, ae man yonder began ' to sing, 'I'm tho King of Glory then nnlthcr said ho 'was the King of Glory and when I sow three libera atandln up an sayln' they were 'tho Kings of Glory I kent there woh to bo n fecht, bo I earn awn' un' left them to finish it nmon themsel's."
