FIRE INSURANCE st1r.-The case of
Dominica Us. The Valley Insurance COM
pany, in which, on Wednesday, the jury re-
turned verdict for the plaintiff, was again
before Judge Meredith yesterday morning
on the application of defendants counsel
to set aside the verdict and grant new
trial. In this suit Dominica claimed to
have lost s5,9S767. The jury gave YER
dict for So, 1920. In considering the mo
ton the Judge said that from the evidence
in the case the goods claimed by the plain
tiff to have been destroyed were not in the
building at the time of the fire, and he
would therefore put the plaintiff upon
terms either to accept 50, ,O0O in lieu of the
verdict, or he would grant the insurance
company new trial. His counsel took
time until to-day to make an election.

Three Wishes.

Three children once on bright summer day,
Having fairly tired themselves out at play,
Lay down on the banks of Il ripping stream
To dream of the future as young hearts dream,
And tell over each to the other again
The deeds they would do when they were men.
The first one carelessly linedh his head,
And his dark eye flashed IS he proudly said
"a few short years, and the sound OF my name
Shall ring through earth on the voice of fame!
will lead men on the field afar;
will come from thence with the sp0llS OF war
A mighty power will hold In my hand
Thousands shall wait on my least command;
The fairest and braveSt for me shall I've,
Craving the boons that are mine TO give:
And the laurel wreath and .he sounding lay.
And the rush of music shall greet my way -
The second iook'd up and his eye of blue
Flashid prouder than his of the darker hue
s.Boast of your slaves with their suppuant knee
You and your peers bend your souls TO me;
Ny life shall be like a beautiful dream.
Toil!ess and careless by thine Will IL seem
will send my fancy on gossamer wings,
Roaming the earth for beautiful things:
But the pen that WELD with my own right hand
Snail mightier be than your strongest bard ~
It shall master the heart with Its exquisite sktll
You shall laugh, you shall weep, hope or Tear, us
will!''
But the third had silently stolen away.
Whiie his play-feIlows talked Of the future day;
For he fear,d II he told or his choice on earth
It would only awaken their nocking mirti.
But vision fitted across his Thought
or happiness only by labor wrought;
Care and toll be would willingly prove,
Might 1t only be Labor of love.
For we'll he knew that the Joys tia spring
From The power to remedy suffering
Come back 10 the heart In Its hour Of sorrow
With sweeter yt Ice than fame can borrow.
Little one, cease from thy laughing glee,
Listen n moment. and answer me:
Now, as i show these pictures three
Which of them seetucth the best TO tnee

The Eternal Word.

No fragment Of an army ever survived
so many battles as the Bible; no citadel
ever withstood so many sieges no rock
was ever battered by so many hurricanes
and so swept by storms. And yet it stands.
It has seen the rise and downfall of Daniels
four empires. Assyria bequeathes few
mutilated figures to the riches of our Ma
tional Museum. Media and Persia, like
Babylon, which they conquered, have been
weighed in the balance and found wanting
Greece family survives its historic time.
" 'Tis living Greece no more" and the iron
Rome of the Caesars is held in precarious
occupation by feeble hand. And yet the
Rock that foretells all this survives. While
nations, kings, philosophers, systems, in
situations, have died away, the Bible now
engages men s deepest thoughts, is examined
by the keenest intellects, stands revered be-
fore the highest tribunals, is more read and
sifted, and debated, more devotedly loved,
and more vehemently assaulted, more de-
Tended and mere denied, moro industriously
translated and freely given to the world,
more honored and abused than any book
the world ever saw. Itsurvives all changes
itself unchanged; it sees all things decay,
itself incoTruptble it sees myriads of other
books engulfed in the stream of time, yet
it is borne along triumphantly on the
wave and will be borne along till the mys-
tic angel shall plant his foot upon the sea
and swear by him that liveth forever and
ever that time, shall be no longer. For
all flesh is as grass, and all the glory OF
man as the flower of grass The grass
withereth, and the flower thereof falleth
away; but the Word of the Lord endureth
forever
