and excited much interest Andy closed
his speech with this annihilating decla,

Ne met this eagle, and | can say

The SOLDIERS DREAM.

BY J, S, G.
In sumbers cf midnight brave soldier lay.
Regardless in sleep Of storm Of rain;
But, watch worn and weary, his cares flew away,
Andseenes IF the past are present again.
IL dreams Of his home the home of his youth,
That blessed retreat from sorrow and care
And again through the distance-oh thatt were truth
He treads its old halls as free as the air.
A father bends DER him and blesses his son;
His check is bedewed by mothers warm tear,
But still he is blessed by the love-kiss of one,
Though loved are they all to his bosom most dear.
The heart Of the sleeper beats high in his breast
No JOY that's Of earth can be purer than his;
And murmur of happiness steals through his rest
My Father in Heaven, thank thee for this"
What sound Is that which bursts DER the nightl
What flashing of light that now redens the sky
IT'S the roaring Of CANNON, the bursting of bombs
The red glare of battle the foeman is ugh
Like true soldier he springs from his bed
And % falls in" the ranks with rife in hand;
He dreams not Of danger, but glory, instead,
And impatiently waits the word OF command.
The battle is over, the victory won;
Brave hearts and cold stee! have gained Us the day
That rigid and cold on the battle field lay
Where now is the sleeper oh, where is the boy
Who saw in his visions such blessings in stor,
He sleeps, but dreams not for ball found his head
He sleeps to awaken to glory no more.
Days months, years and ages shall circle away,
The ocean Of time to eternity roll;
Thou art lost to earh's loved for and aye
Soldier and brother, peace be TO thy soul J!

How RAIN FALLs.-Where docs the
rain come from ? You answer; From

come from7 You may think the wind
blows them over you. But if it blows
clouds over you from somewhere else, it
also blows them from over you to other
places. The fact is. the water of the
clouds is just as much over you on clear
day as on a cloudy or rainy day. On a
fair day when no clouds are seen, the wa

AN ODE TO oDD.FELLoWSHIP.


As rolls the storm.cloud dense and dun,
As dew descending seeks the snn,
As smoke from of the glowing hame
As heralds to the trump OF fame,
So Is my love as true to me,
That the same to her may be.
She reigns upon a mystic throne,
As 70 the outside world unknown,
As though she dwelt where incense rise,
On howery fields in PARADISE
To me she filings her veil aside,
And stands a fair lovely brdg.
The golden links that bind her form,
Resists the worlds impending storm,
Their names all iegistered above
Are namely, "FRnNDsnn, TRUTH AND LoyE;
1hese links of gold she would not break
To save her from the burning stake. ID
Away through food and storm she flies,
sNhen ter the voice Uf anguish cries,
Nepenthe sweet she's alwa9s got,
Pur those who know, or know her not;
First give to byOthsTS, is her plan,
And then to others, what she can
The blessings Of her jenile reign,
The outsile world cannot contain,
In what her Brotherhood believe,
tn outside world cannot conceive;
Yet still her links Of gold abound,
This mighty Globe Uf ours around.
From age to age she's downward trJe,
Directed 10y the hand Of God,
Her G. adle was the Prophets ward
Her bed the temple of our Lord;
church that teaches not her creed
Is not church In very deed.
The storm Of War may rage around,
And dead and dying strew the ground,
Ihun there she'll smiling hover Ger,
The soldier weltering In his gore;
Her works are various, but the chief,
Is giving her beloved relief.
should any Of h5r chosen band,
Go wandering through afIrcgn Land,
" ith none to counsel, none to cheer,
Not knowing who tO trust or iear,
She signals him. and mark the change
The straHgsr is no longer strange.
She aids the Widow in di-tess,
she cducatcs the ftlhcrlcss,
She clothes the naked feeds the poor,
And drives inemp'rtrce from her door,
Nowhere on all tie earth around,
Can sch Queen as ours he found.
