LILIES.
BY ANNIE L. RUTH.

She was dying; we who loved her,
Noiceless in our bitter woe,
Watched the light of life grow DINNER,
Watched the tide of life ebb slow;
Yet we pray ed not Heaven to spare her,
knowing " heEc e our Christening came,
Knowing on her young hfe fallen
SeAthing blight of sin and shame.
Softly her blue eyes unelosing-
"Dear ones when I'm laid to rest,
Let some one, of you that love me,
strow white lilies on my breast Z"
Then, as sudden Ger her spirit
Swept q wave of memory,
"Aay," she cried, 81 had forgotten
Lilies are for purity %
Hiding with her wasted fingers
From our eyes her pain wrung face,
Battling with her mighty anguish
Lay she for 3 little space,
Then the one whose wrong was deepest,
In thathe had loved her we'll;
Loved her with faith unme ensured,
Trusting even while she fell =
Bending DER her, WHISPERED softly
Darling, on your breast shall! lie
Whitest lilies, fair and spotless,
Emblems, still, of purity
Not of our poor fallen natures,
Neer from sin and error free,
But OF His, who bears our bur den,
His, who died on Calvary
From her cheek the shame flush faded,
On her face there seemed to grow
With his words holy radiance
Peace of God which passeth show
"Pure through Him - she Dried 80 loved on
When I sleep no more to wake,
On my breast lay spotlsss lilies
As sign-.for Jesus sake %

names are appended to it, we call the atten-
ton of our readers to an advertisement which
appears in another column, addressed TO the
Public Buildings Commissioners, and protest
ing against the erection of the public build
ings at the intersection of Broad and Market
streets. The arguments used in this docu-
nent are the same that have been used from
the beginning by the opponents of Penn
Square as a site for the public buildings, and
thst'have been answered again and again.
The signers of the protest are among our
most esteemed and wealthy citizens and busi-
ness men, but counter petition, presenting
an opposite view of this case, can un-
doubtedy be procured at very short noti.e,
with the names of equally respectable and
wealthy citizens attached.

Corwin accordingly looked at it again more
intently than ever, vie ewed it on all sides,
