God Knows 1t All.

In the dim recess of thy spirits chamber
Is there some hidden grief thou may'st no
| tell7
Let not thy heart forsake thee, but remember
His plying eye, who sees and knows i
we'll
God knows it all
And art thou tossed on billows of temptation,
And would'st do good, but evil still pre-
walls?
O think amid the waves of tribulation,
When earthly hope, when earthly refuge
God knows it all
And dost thou sin thy deeds of shame con-
In some dark spot no human eye can see 2
Then walk in pride, without one sign reveal
ing
The deep remorse that should disquiet thee
God knows it all
Art thou opprest, and poor and heavy hearted,
The Heaven above thee in thick clouds ar
rayed,
And well-nigh crushed, no earthly strength
impaired,
Ne friendly voice to say, s'Be not afraid ~
God knows it all
Art thou mourner? Are thy tear-drops
flowing
For one SO early lost to earth and thee?
The depth of grief no human spirit knowing
Which means in secret like the moaning
God knows it all
Dost thou look back upon life of SHINING
Forward. and tremble for thy future lot?
There's One who sees the end from the begin
ming;
Thy tear Of penitence is unforgot.
God knows it all ! I
Then 60 to God Pour out your heart before |
Him,
There is no grief your Father cannot feel /;
And let your grateful songs of praise adore |
Him
To save, forgive, and every wound to heal
God knows it all

form part of this exhibit, as also large
display of bay spirits. Among the
Greenland curiosities we found a model
of boat with fishing tackle complete,
and also dress of the Esquimaux.
Stuffed birds in cases. Curious figures
of the natives in slab shoes, or snow
shoes suppose. A beautiful Elder
Duck robe is shown; also Liquid Rem
net. various tools and coloring matter
for butter. Denmark has quite dis
play of cherry cordial, candles, playing
cards, stationery and artificial leather.
A gentleman's dress suit consisting of
black coat and pants and white vest all
made by hand is to be seen in a glass
case. There is also a model of an Es-
quimaux house, which is square with an
extending entry in which is built
chimney. Round the sides of the house
the beds are placed Oh deep benches,
one above the other. This might do for
Centennial times or camp meeting, but
for constancy we prefer more rooms
and smaller in size. Whilst on the
subject Of Denmark it may not be in
appropriate to speak of the "Study in
Butter" now on exhibition in the Art
Gallery, but formerly in the Women's
Pavilion. This beautiful alto relieve
picture can only be seen to be appreci-
ated. 1t is a lovely face and represents
1.-The Dreaming Iolanthe," the blind
daughter of King Rene, of Denmark,
the subject is an ideal portrait taken
from the poem liking Rene's Daughter"
by the Danish Poet Henric Hertz
This beautiful piece of work is the un-
tutored effort of natural born sculptor
Mrs. Brookes, of Arkansas it was
made in April at her home on farm
near Helena. She churned the butter
and modelled it from her own idea of the
poem. in her dairy when the thermom-
eter was in the upper figures She is,
as she says in her own sweet way, but
a common farmers wife, and when tell
ing over and over to the admiring
crowd that surround her, at all times,
her story, how she is sent here by tho
ladies' of Ohio. and how she made the
lively head with but few tools, (and
hose too are shown) her magnificent
'yes will flash with all the fire of true
genius; and the truthful confding face
will quickly dispel any doubt as to her
tory She had photographs and also
tereoscopic pictures for sale, of the
'icture which will serve as a refreshing
memory of a beautiful work of art and
lso its facinating artist.

AN HEIREss TO $3.50, 100000.

Miss Melissa Elder was a poor clerk
in hotel dining-room in Atchison, Kan
sas and here is the account from a
journal of that city of her wonderful
luck: A short time ago Melissa Elder
fell heir to 9112, 900, 900 sterling,
amounting to about $3.50, 100000 It
seems that her great-great-gandfather,
on her mothers side, who was Roman
Senator, had all his property, which
consisted of vast amount of real estate
in and around the city of Rome, confis-
Gated to the Roman Empire, on account
of his being concerned with Marc An
tony in the terrible assault on the bodv
of Caesar. Caesars wife was also &C.
cused at the same, but Marc ANTONY
afterwards said she was above suspicion,
and nothing was done in the matter
All the property of Melissa's great
great-grandfather, however, was confis-
Gated upon the testimony of detective.
The detective was afterward taken with
frenzied remorse, and wrote full con-
fession, moved to Pompeii, and was liv-
ing in that ill-fated town when the sud-
den catastrophe which befell it cut him
down in the prime of life. During the
recent discoveries among the ruins of
Pompeii this confession was discovered.
and Miss Elders great-great-grandfath-
er was fully vindicated. A Chicago
lawyer, who was travelling through Eu-
rope, heard of the circumstances, and
BY aid of detectives, found in the person |
Of Melissa Elder the only surviving heir
If her lamented great-great-grandfather
The lawyer has taken the prosecution
IT the case on contingent fec, and Me-
issa leaves for Rome to take possession
'f that town. Of course she should be
congratulated, as $3.50, ,O0O,O does

Four Hundred Years Ago.

Wild were thy plains, Columbia,
Thy plains of evergreen;
And ne'er before upon thy shore
Were foreign footprints seen;
But, through thy groves the savage rov'd,
Where mountain streamlets flow,
| When brave Columbus crossed the seas,
Four hundred years ago.
With heart of steel that fear'd no ill,
With followers true and brave,
He bade farewell his native dell,
| And tried the treach rous wave;
He dar'd to roam the ocean foam,
Where stormy breezes blow,
And to thy shore glad tidings bore,
-Four hundred years ago
That cheered him on his way,
And pointed out the painless route
To where thy islets lay;
Hope was the star that shone afar
With bright and dazzling glow,
And steer'd his bark mid dangers dark,
Four hundred years agol.
But, chang'd the scene since then, ween-
Thy savage chieftains fed;
And where of old the grim wolf stroll'd,
Proud cities rear their head
And fertile plains of golden grain
In rich luxuriapce grow,
Where all was drear as autumn scar,
Four hundred years ago
On many crag our starry flag
Waves o'er the brave and free,
And our navies ride in all their pride,
On every sounding sea
And nations gaze in stark amaze,
For well the nations know
Our name and fame was not the same
Four hundred years ago
And far away, where the wild winds play
Through the forests dismal night,
An iron steed with lightning speed
Darts like ray of light;
And streamers glide DER the sparkling tide,
Where weary and faint and slow,
The red man drew his light canoe,
-Four hundred years ago
Then, hail Columbia, happy land,
Home of the poor oppressed,
May still to thee the exile fee,
And find place of rest;
And may thy power increase each hour,
Thy sons in virtue grow,
And die or save what Colon gave,
Four hundred years agol J.F.Q.
