WEARY.

The following poem is from . reprint Of I
volume Of Mr.. Browning's early poetry, pub
lished In 1875, when she was between Sixteer
and seventeen years oS age:
Mine eyes are weary of conveying
The farirest things, too soon decayldg;
Mine ears are weary Of receiving
The kindest words-oh, past believing!
Weary my hope, Of ebb and flow;
Weary my pulse, Of tunes of woe;
My trusting heart Is Wearest!
I Would-I would were at rest!
For me can earth refuse to fade?
For me can words be faithful made?
Will my embitter'd hope be sweet?
My pulse fOrego the human beat?
No! Darkness must consume mine eye
Silence, mine ear-hope ceasc-pulse die
And DER mine heart stone be press'd-
Or vain this-"Would were at rest!"
There Is land Of rest defcrr'd:
No eye hath seen, no ear hath heard,
Nor Hope hath trod the precinct DER;
For hope bcheld his hope no more!
There human pulse forgets It's tone
There hearts may know as they are known!
o, for doves wings, thou dwelling blest,
To fly to thee. and be at rest!

tand every successful business man has his
these bogus analyses. Numerous and most
absurd formulas have been published, purport-

calling: attention to the fallacy Of judging Of
the reliability of companies according to their
the public eye by printing their gross o assets
in the heaviest type, and by laying great
stress upon the nominal millions under their
control to win confidence and prevent any
close analysis of the whole statement. He
points out the plain, but often forgotten fact,
that even conceding the equally good quality
OF the assets OF two companies, it is not ne
cessarily the one with the most millions which
is safest for the policy holder, but the one
whose net surplus bears the largest ratio to its
whole property. Judged by this sound and
