Why thus so often dost appear;
Wheeapleasure reigns, dost bid the tear
OF sorrow come, and Ger our play
Cast daskesirg shadows all the way'
From whence, and why dost bear thy flight,
Dread messenger? And why this night,
With A0iseless tread and wasting hand,
Dost point this one to spirit land?
WANQOt some other circle break?
Much matter who this night doth take
To feed thy pQmberey safe thy lust
For man, who ID: at best but dust?

The light Of many allowing eye?
Then Why no answer dost thou give,
ThatWe may know our loved ones live,
And, living, see US night and day,
And hear us when We knccl to pray?
Or, when the eye in death doth close,
And folded hands in calm repOsc
Greet the sad eye, is this the last
Qman's estate, future and past?
Wll nO;v0ice answer? Plying Lord,
Whose works and being I've ad0rcd
From earliest youth, wilt not impart
One ray OF light to lone heart
One impress from Thy quickening hand,
That cropping souls may understand
This sleep OF silence, loss Of friends,

Speak but the word we fain would hear,
That all our works and suffcrings here
But 1T US for another seat
Where for us each our loved ones wait.

Portable Or Co.pesa.,e. Roonas..

There is probably no article of manufacture
so universally needed as q reliable low priced
roofing, which can be readily applied without
the aid of skilled labor, and in no other direc-
ton has SO great want been so inefficiently
supplied. The results of experiments with
felts, cements and other competitions have SO
far been anything but satisfactory. Numerous
so-called "cheap rooangs " have been produced.
advertised, used and found worthless. In view
OF these facts We arc glad to be able to speak
favorably of an article which, from our own
knowledge and the testimony of some Of the
most extensive and best known manufacturers
and merchants in this country, has proven Il
reliable and economical substitute for the more
expensive kinds of roofing. We refer to H.
w. Johns Patent Asbestos Roofing, the manu-
tacturers of which make no extravagant repre-
sensations, but claim it to be the only reliable
portable roofing in USE, and from careful inquiry
we believe their claims arc we'll founded. This
roofing is prepared ready for use, can be easily
applied by unskilled workmcn, is adapted for
steep or fiat roofs in all climates, and when
finished with the 'ctife .dr'.p,ocf coating forms
the lightcst, handsOmest and coolest roof in
the world, costing only about half as much rs
