TIE WHITE FLOWERS STORY.

A sweet, pure flower, white as the snow with
out,
grew and blossomed in the scented air,
And dreamed full many dream of life and
love;
! heard young lovers whispering all about,
And thought that soon | too should have my
share.
The sunshine wooed me gazing from above,
Twas then | opened out my perfect flower,
Until the whole place owned its wondIou.
power.
With soft, sad eyes watched my lady come
Aud r she drew me toward her heaving breast
l deemed my time drew nigh to see the world
That world, of which | heard the voiceless
hum
90 on forever, with curious, vague unrest;
And wider yet my pure white leaves unfurled
MY lady wears me at the ball to night,
| once shall see a scene of rare delightW
With shaking hand my lady cut the stem
And pressed me TO her lips, and in her eyes
| saw the large tears slowly gathering there
Yet did not fail. She did not notice them,
And looked through mist beyond the pale blue
skies,
As if she saw mystic vision fair.
"My lady gives me, said |, whispering low,
'TO him to whom her sweet heart longs to co.
Slowly she carried me with tagging feet
Int another room. There, on the bed,
Lay something white and wonderful and
grand,
Upon the lips lingering smile 80 sweet
knew thst was with the blessed dead
Whose work was done, who could no longer
stand
With weary eyes, watching the daylight die
Too swift away across the Winter sky.
My lady placo1 nc on the unbfating heart,
BY the crossed hands, and sighed with bitter
pain,
And methought she euvied me my place.
She turned away, then, As If forced apart,
Her lips just breathed her lovers name again ;
Yet came no sign upon that silent face.
Twas then knew it all-death ia life's best,
And he wins most who earliest goes to rest
All the Year Round.

FARMERS READ THIS,
And Stop the Thieves Before They Get the

"We have long been of the opinion that
il the states would dispense altogether
with the taxation of personal property,
and confne their assessment Of taxes to
real estate, the system OF taxation would
be greatly simplifed and tax burdens
would he more equtably distributed than
is practicable under any other rule. Real
estate embraces land aud the fixed i'm.
provements thereon. These are tangible
and visible Objects They have q perma.
nent locality and admit ofno concealment
They are easily measurable as to their
value. Nothing is smpler than the pro-
cess of assessing tax upon real estate on
the basis OF value. Nothing, on the other
hand, is more difficult than the task OF
levying tax on all personal property.

under the guise OF religion would shame

the farmers have suffered themselves rob.

Dor and now it is prCpo ed to rob them of
the other half by making them pay all
the taxes of the government. 1t is not
enough that the farmer shOnld pay the
bondholder's tax aud school his children,
but he must grade the road and then pay
the tax on the carriage that he drives. In
addition to all this, he must pay the inter
