POETRY


The pastor sits in his easy-chair,
With the Bible upon his knee,
From gold to purple the clouds in the west
Are changing momently;
TheshadoWs lie in the valley below,
And hide in the curtains fold;
And the page grows dim whereon he reads,
81 remember the days of old"
ssNot clear nor dark" as the Scripture saith,
The pastors memories are;
No day that is gone was shadowless,
No night was without its star:
But mingled bitter and sweet hath been
The portion of bis cup;
sThe hand that in love hath smitten, he saith,
In love hath bound us up
Fleet flies his thought over many a field
OF stubble and snow and bloom,
And now it trips through festival,
And now it halts at tomb;
Young faces smile in his reverie
OF those that are young no more,
And veices are heard that only come
With the winds from far-of shore.
He thinks of the day when FIRST, with fear
And faltering lips, he stood
To speak in the sacred place the Word
To the waiting multitude;
He walks again to the house of God,
With the voice of joy and praise,
Heavens safe and blessed ways.

the elder has at last published his
defence. which IS to the effect that he

Not . Question Of Clothes.


The Warsaw IndiarinYl thinks that

cause OF the use Of the term BLUE
Je. MS by Republican papers. Not
much. People are not such fools as
to vote for man because an eccen-
tricity, any more than they would for
q man with a red nose. Williams
wears blue jeans because he prefers
that kind OF goods. And to pretend
that the intelligence of the average
voter Is controlled by such an idea Is
absurd. Besides a positive proof
against the idea is that the Demo
cratic majority at the presidential
election varied very little for that
piven to BLUE Jeans when the
question Of clothes was in the case.
