Some Of the Boston newspaper repor-
tiers felt much incensed againts the pro-
prietors Of the Vendome Hotel, who re.
fused to say anything Of strike among
the walters of their caravansery. It's
u notorious fact that journalists make
bad walters. and the hotel men knew il
and didn't want to be called upon to re-
fuse applications for service. That's
all. 1t wasn't because there was any.
thing in the treatment Of the walters to
call for public censure.

Toe church and tho world walked far apart.
On the chunging shore Of time:
The world was singing giddy song.
And the church hymn sublime.
Come give me your hand" cried fhc merry
and walk with me this way"
But the good church hid her snowy hand.
And solemnly answered.: NAY,
Will not give you my hand ut all,
And will MT walk with you;
Your way Is the way to endless death.
And ynir words are all untrue"
"Nay, walk with me but 4 little space
Said the world with u kindly air;
"rhe road walk Is u pleasant road,
And the sun shines Always he anj
While mine Is lowry and smooth;
Your iot II sud with reproach ana toni,
But I'm circles Of Joy move;
Ny path you can zee Is u bread, fair one,
And my gate Is high and wide;
There Ia room enough for you and for me.
To travel side by side."
| Half shyiy the clutch approached tho world
| And gave him har hund Of snow;
And tho Old world grasped Il aud walked

| Saving In accents low,
"Your dress Ii too simple to please my taste
have gold and pearls to wear;
Rich velvets and silks fol your grsceful form
Aud diamouus to deck your hair"
The church looked down ut her plain, white

And then at the dazzling world.
And blushed as she saw his handsome lips.
