weary souls who fain would bring accasia,
palms and evergreens, and songs of praise,
as incense sweet-as glad soul-otf'rings their

means and sighs from stricken hearts for
ever doth arise; where cries and lamenta--
tions fill the air, without the consolation OF
a tear; for tears a consolation sweet would
bring; they'd soothe the anguish of the
troubled heart, and surcease give from the
fiery dart that pierce the souls in Midgard'ss
dark domain, where gnOmes and ghoulsand
cruel furies reign.
And so my sad heart with grief is stricken,
such scenes of torment my soul doth sicken !;
/ sigh to think within ear-shot call of an
guished sutferings there is goal Of bliss
supreme, where anthems and sweet song a
fadeless surfeit Of glad joys prolong; where
weary souls might find sweet peace and rest,
in bright Valhalla, the home o. tn happy
blest. But thus it is-where SO e'er we 60,
We'll find that bliss is near akin to woe q
bridge divides them, while on either side
on sunbeams or on tempest souls doth ride !:

while hOWlS of demons on the other side
doth ring.

three thousand years, during which they

The younger members of its society married

ones moved-some to other parts of the dis

land mark, sold his plantation to Mr.. Glen

of his son, Mickey Ward, Esq, in Lancaster

Ferebee Ward married, first, Jack Crock

reavement. After his death, she married
again, and, 1 trust, found the sun-down of

THE FUTURE OF OUR EARTH.-If the
force at the back of all growth, all complex
ity, and all change on earth is that which
the sun has steadily supplied to it through
countless ages, and still supplies, it is plain
that when this force fails, as fail it one day
must, there will be a steadily declining de-
velopment and rapidly increasing degene-
ration of things an undoing by regresslVe
decomposition of what has been done by
progressive combinations through the sue
cession of the ages. The disintegrating
process may be expected to take effect first
upon the highest products of evolution,
and to reach in deepening succession the
low, lower and lowest organizations and
organic compounds. The nations that have
risen high in compleXity of development
Will deteriorate and be broken up, to have
their places taken by less complex associa, as o
tiOns of inferior individuals; these in turn
will yield place to simpler and feebler
unions of still more degraded beings; spe-
cies after species of animals and plants will
first degenerate and then become extinct as
the worsening conditions of life render it
impossible for them to continue the strug-
gle for existence; few scattered families
of degraded human beings, living, perhaps,
in snow huts near the equator very much
as Esquimaux live now near the pole, viii
represent the last wave of the receding tide
of human existence before its final eXtinc-
ton; until at last a frozen earth, incapable
of cultivation, is left without energy to pro-
duce living particle Of any sort, and SO
death itself is dead.-Dr. Md,llsley.
OUTLINED HIS PoLICY.-In 1916, Charles
Barrett, of Ashburton, Mass, came to the
conclusion that he might die before having
accumulated fortune sufficient to make his
family comfortable or render his widow a
desirable catch. While in this state of
mind he went and insured his life for 81 ,000
He was then 60 years of age, which makes
him 9S now. A few days ago he was sur
prised to receive a check for the amount of
his policy, together with note explaining
that he had reached the extreme limit of
life according to the tables on which that
company based its business therefore he
was dead to them. 1t is stated by an eXpe-
rienced life-insurance agent, that this is the
first case in which man has beaten an in
surance company by OUTLYING his policy.

. EARLY "CATTLE DRIVES. s."-The earliest
history that we are enabled to obtain con-
cerning the Texas "cattle drive" dates back
to 1857, when about 10000 head of cattle,
horses and mules were driven to Missouri,
passing through Kansas City, Mo-, and
crossing the river at what is known as Ran
dolph Ferry, three miles below the town,
in the month of June of that year. The
drive though not very successful for the
first year or two, finally increased and
became more promising. The business was
continued and large numbers of stock were
added to each annual drive from that time
up to 1S61-the breaking out of the war
which stopped this rapidly growing trade.
After the close Of the war-or 1S66-the
drive North again commenced and it is
