AN EApERogs EARLY povERrY

IL may we'll be that the venerable German
Emperor, as on Christmas Eve he contem-
plated the magnificent tree prepared for him
by his children and grandchildren all gathered
around him, laden with costly and seasonable
offerings to the mightiest monarch Of CONT
mental Europe, bethought him of certain
grim and dismal Christmastide seventy three
years ago. His Royal parents, driven from
their capital and reduced to actual poverty,
were then boarding and lodging on credit in a
private citizen's house at Memel, and bat for
trrnury SUBSIDY reaching them from the
Mennonite settlement of Kuhn, would have
been unable to purchase few cheap aud
simple Christmas presents for their children,
the eldest Of whom was at that time only
twelve years old. So desperate were the cir
cumstances of the Prussian Royal family
toward the close of the year 1907 that the
brave and high spirited Queen Louise, in
letter to her father, described them In heart
rendering tones sour position" she wrote,
:" is horrible one. We are all crushed by it.
Even my strength is leaving me. 1t is dread
full, appalling, cruel-the more so that it is
undeserved. Perhaps it may be for the chill
dren's good that, whilst they are young, they
should make acquaintance with the seamy
side of life. Had they grown up in the lap of
superfuity and comfort they would think IL
cannot be otherwise. But that it can, they
may now see by looking at their fathers sad
face and the bitter tears flowing from their
mothers eyes"
When this mournful letter was written,
Kaiser Wilhelm was delicate lad of ten, to
whom his first uniform and commission as an
ensign in the Prussian Guard had just been
presented by Frederick William ILL.,, whose
privy purse was SO forlorn of the precious
metals that his birthday gift that year to his
eldest daughter, afterward the Empress of
Russia, was a fifteen shilling note, accom-
panied by the words, " You must make the
most of it, for just now can spare no more"
II is well to know that these "reminiscences Of
his childhood are still fresh In the good old
Emperor's memory and at no time of the
year would they be more likely to recur to his
mind than at the |" festive season." his splen-
did celebrations of which afford so strange a
contrast to the melancholy Christmas expert
ence of his early youth. London Telegraph.

POETRY.
SOMEWHERE.

Somewhere await the treasures we have strswn.
Which idle hands and feet have rudcly shattered
And tenderest love shall gather - It's own
The pearls thus scaltereo.
Somewhere the tears Of broken-hearted trust,
or patient sacrifice and sef-sublnission,
Shall form the rainbow promise Of just
And full fruition.
Somewhere the narrow stepping-st stones we tread
The steep and terrible ascent OF duty,
Shall turn TO velvet terraces o'srspread
With emerald beauty.
Somewhere the doubtful seed that We have sown
Shall well dispose a cold. uncertain rootage,
And yndicate the hope we now disown
By fairest fruitage.
Somewhere our human effort Of to-day,
The faltering outcome OF pure intention,
Eternity shall hold as brave assay
And true ascension.
o, universal soull The hnste range
ofearth and time may dwarf our high endeavot,
fet life - victory, through the Involving change
OFT thy forever.

always on most intimate terms with all
manners of Crime and dirt; whose hair is
never combed, save on compulsion whose

and yelling are constant reminders of aborig-
