UNsPoKEN PRAYER.


Too tbcd-too worn to pray,
I can hut fold my hands,
Entreatlng In volceless way
OF him who understands
How flesh and heart succumb-
How will sinks, wcary-weak.
Dear Lord. my languld lips are dumb,
See what cannot speak"
Just M the wearied child,
Through sobbing pain opprcst,
Drops, hushing all Ia wailings wild,
Upon its mothers breast
SO on thy bosom,
would cast my spcechless prayer,
Nor doubt that thou wilt let me he
In trustful weakness there.
And though no conscious thought
Before me rises clear,
The prayer Of wordless language wrought
Thou yet will dclgn to hear.
For when, at best, plead
What 40 my spirit saith
only am the bruised reed
And thou. the breathing breath. Selected

EVERY real and searching effort at self
improvement is of itself lesson of profound
humility. For we cannot move a step with
out learning and feeling the waywardness,
the weakness, the vacillation of our move
ments, or without desiring to be set upon
the rock that is higher than ourselves.

about these letters, and probably make him
read them verbatim.
Chairman--Mr. Marble, have YOU copies
OF kilograms you sent from Florida?
Answer--I have not; they were published
at the time, and l would prefer if you will
take them as published.
Mr.. Hiscock objected, saying the tele.
grams are here, and insist that they shall
stand on their own merits.
Stenger-The intention of this committee
is to get at everything, and my idea is that
every telegram, every paper ard every ex-
planation should be admitted.
Hiscock-Yes, you are getting on the rag
ged edge, and fear you will fall over.
Chairman-I think it is only fair that all
propositions made by the witness should be
freely explained.
By party vote, to 2, it was agreed to
admit the explanation, and the witness be.

Hiscock again objected to these frequent
explanations. They only wanted witness

to spread, and we may safely assume that
this region Of country is this season
free Of those mysterious influences or con-
ditions under which the fever becomes
epidemic. Under these circumstances, it
is proper that towns which quarantined
against New Orleans when the fever was first
reported here should now resume their inter-
course witt. us. Only imminent danger of an
epidemic can justify the restrictions on trade
and travel which some Of The interior towns
keep up against New Orleans. We have given
the public everywhere ample evidence Of our
good faith in promptly reporting the few
cases of fever which occurred. They should
now accept the assurances of our Board of
Health and press that the city is free Of fever,
and raise their quarantine.
