Then thorpe and byre arose in ire
For OF, them brake the sudden foe;
So thick they died the people cried
.sThe gods are m vel against he land.
The priest in horror about his altar
To Thor and Odin lifted hand.

But still the foeman spoil'd and b,rrn'd.
And cattle died. and deer in wood,
And bir in air, and fishes turn'd
And whiten'd all the rolling flood;
And dead men lay all over the way,
Or down in furrow scathed with fame:
And ever and aye tie Priesthood moan'd
Till at last it seemed that an answer came:
"The King Is ha' py
In child and wife;
Take you his nearest,
Take you his dearest,
Give Us LIE.
The Priest went out by heath and dill,
The King was hunting In the Wild;
They found the mother sitting still;
She cast her arms about the child.
The child was only eight summers old,
his beauty still with his years Increased,
His face was ruddy. his hair was gold,
he seem'd victim due to the Priest.
The Priest exulted,
And cried with JOY,
.Here Is his nearest,
Here Is his dearest,
We taxa the boy"
The King returned from out the wild,
he ose but little game In hand;
The mother said, "Tbey have taken the ohiid
To spill his blood and heal the land:
The land is sick, the people diseased,
And blight and famine on al the lea:
The holy Gods they must be appeased,
SO 7 pray YOU tell the truth to me-

But the Priest was h-ppy.

S. Weir Roosevelt, az eminent lawyer Of
New York City, says: THE fact that it
uses n single thread and an ordinary spool,
is great convenience; but this has given
rise to some misgiylng in the public mind in
regard to the strength and durability Of the
stitch. The head Of my family informs
me, after consultation with other female
heads Of families who have long used the
Wilcox Il Gibbs Machine, that the stitch is
as strong as the material, and will last as
long as the garment, and little longer; so
tie question fer the public to decide is,
whether anything stronger or longer in do
mesti, life.' We agree with Mr.. Roosevelt,
that the twist-loop stitch is sufficiently
strong and durable for family sewing. or any
other; indeed, without disparaging other
stitches, we think it is the strongest and
most durable stitch made. But we also
think that, such being the fact, another ana
most important question for the public "a
decide is, whether tt00 threads, and the com
Dlicated machinery required to use two
threads, are any longer necessary.
