The End

The course of tho woariest river
Ends ia the great gray sea;
Tho acorn, for ever and ever.
Strives upward to the tree.
The rainbow, tho sky adorning,
Shines promise through the storm
The giimmer Of coming morning
Through midnight gloom will form
ny time all knots are rven,
Complex although they be,
And peace will at last be given,
Dear, both to YOU and TO me.
Then, though the path may be dreary'
Lock onward to the goal;
Though the heart and the head be weary,
Let faith inspire the soul;
Seek the right, though tho wrong be tempting,
Speak the truth at any cost;
Vain is all weak exempting
When once the gom is lost
let strong hand and keen eye be ready
For plain and ambushed foes;
Thought earnest and fancy steady
Bear best unto the close.
The heavy clouds may be raining,
Dut With evening comes the light;
Though the dark low winds are complaining,
Yet the sunrise gilds the height;
1si love has his hidden treasure
FOR The patient and the pure;
ard time gives his fullest measure
TO the workers who endure;
And thc Word that no law has shaken
Has the future pledge supplied;
Ear we know that when we awaken
We shall be satisfied"

Pattison Speaks.

Mr.. Pattison made his first speech
in the present campaign in the rooms
of the Commonwealth Club House
Philadelphia, on Tuesday evening
the 18th. The five Democratic can.
didates- for state ofiices-Pattison,
Black, Clark, AFRICA and Elliott,
were all present. Some four hun
dred prominent Democrats from the
city and other parts of the state
had assembled together for the
pleasant and interesting occasion.
1t was not intended as mass meet
ing in the popular sense ofthc term,
Senator Ecklcy B Coke, on be-
half Of the Club, made the adj
dress of welcome to the candidates
to which Mr.. Pattison responded in
just such q speech as the voters Of
Pennsylvania are glad to hear from
a candidate for Governor. Mr.. Pat
tison made no labored attempt to
be brilliant, did not expand on gilt
tering gcncralities nor promise i'm
probable things, but spoke plain.
practical common sense such as the
masses can well understand and
most desire. He gave abundant
proof that he is entirely familiar and
Unidentified with the interests and
wants ofthe people, and that he is a
safe man to elect as chief executive
of a great commonwealth.
