SHAH We nTeet Againl

The fiat of nature is memorable. There
is no appeal for relief from the great law
which dooms us to dust. We flourish and
fade as the leaves of the forest, and the
flowers that bloom and wither in Il day
have no Trailer hold upon life than the
mightiest monarch that ever shook the
earth with his footsteps. Generations of
men will appear and disappear rs the grass,
and the multitude that throng the world to-
day will disappear as the footsteps on the
shore. Men seldom think of the great
event of death until the shadow falls across
their pathway, hiding from their eyes the
faces of loved ones whose living smile was
the sunlight of their existence. Death is
the antagonist of life, and the cold Thought
of the tomb is the skeleton of all feass.
We do not want to 90 through the dark val
Icy, although the darl; passage may lead to
paradise; we TO not want to lay down in
the damp grave, even with princes for bed
fellows. In the beautiful drama of lion, F"
the hope OF Immortality, eloquently uttered
by the death-devoted Greek, finds deep re
Spouse in every thoughtful soul. When
about to yield his young existence MS n sac.
riiice To fate, his Clonlantha asks il they
should meet again, TO which he replies: II
have asked That dreadful question of the
hills that look eternal, of the clear streams
that flow foreVer-Of the stars in whose
fields of azure my raised spirits have walked
in glory. All were dumb; but upon my
living face feel there Is something in the
love that nanties through Its beauty that
cannot wholly PERISH We shall meet
AGAIN, Clemantha. - George -. Prentice.
