of books, but as we see thousands dying around ns
with Consumption, Group, Cough, Asthma, Bron-

above assertion, especially since il is so well
known that certain remedy may be obtained,
which always arrests those diseases. E

This is my chosen haunt-this messy dell
Hath ever been to me a sacred spot
The sounds of thoughtless mrth ne'er echoed here.
n he huntsman's rifle, or the baying hound
Hath never yet disturbed this deep, deep solitude
The squirrel bounds unscared from tree to tree
|The birds pour forth their cheerful matin songs,
Without fear.
In this pure stream
Was never cast the anglers hook.
n he speckled trout skins thro those lmpid waters
bending, gaze upon his dreary course
And yet he fears me not.
|This is q little world-a secret spot
Unscanned by Sins deep searching eye.
Here will rest when tired of Lies ungratcfu noise
And here may escape the torturing cares
With which the world is full.
MAY sorrow, pain or fear meier entrance gain
|ro this loved spot
When do enter may feel secure -
May feel that am far away
From all the hearts sorrows-that breathe
An atmosphere untainted by the breath Of Woe

IT is COMING !
by WILLIAM oRLAND BOURNE,


In the age of mythic vision,
Years gone, as years do fly,
Poets dreamed of fields Elysinn
Where the gorics never die.
Painted they the bright delusion.
Often called the Golden Age,
And they lent the gay illusion,
Borrowed light from fancy's page.
But the strains rchearsed the story
OF the ancient days Of dream,
When the worlds primeVal glory
Made the past enchanted seem.
IT'S COMING! sure and onward;
Coming from the realms of day!
While the spirit looking sunward,
Like an eagle sees the ray.
Earnest souls around us labor,
Yearning for the coming time,
When the scimctar and sabre,
Sheathed, shall cease their deeds OF crime
When the words Of love shall waken
Worldwide libres in tie hearts Of men,
When the spirit shall be shaken
Till it finds its God again.
Nights high-pricst, the Egyptian Pharaoh,
Bids the Fastening time delay,
Planting in the pathway marrow,
Stubble crecds that fear the days
Telling Faiths bright, earnest children,
They that bear the oppressors chain
"Goc We to yopr tasks and burden,
Get yc to youf bands again;
"Yet day shall end your sorrow,
Ye shall serve the goo ye know,
On the morning Of the morrow
Out of Egypt We shall CO."
Long the world has heard the fable
Sought the n-proCrastined day;
But the towering walls Of Babel
Soon shall wed their native clay.
Earth's old temple, dome and pillar,
Like n charnel filled with death,
Builded by the brother-killer,
Mindeth what the spirit saith.
In its shadow, pure and olden,
Lieth FrccdOm's cornerstone,
Which we seek, while songs embolden,
Hearts Of giant-trust alone.
Out of darkness life is springing-
Out Of dumbness glorious speech;
Prophets from the dead are bringing
Living souls that boldly teach.
Out of brass and out of iron
Soon shall come the shining gold,
While the beams shall then environ
Realms whose splendor is untold
Tba,, eboll love snrinc forth unbdden;
Then shall light spring forth unborn;
For their foes snail all be hidden
In the unclouded Golden Morn.
