Nothing Lost but a Heart.

Drifting away from each other,
Speedily drifting apart;
Nothing between but the worlds coli
screen;
Nothing to lose but heart.
Only two lives. dividing
More and more every day;
Only one soul from another soul
Steadily drifting away.
Only a mans heart striving
Bitterly hard with its doom;
Only hand tender and bland
Slipping away in the gloom.
Nothing of doubt or wrong,
Nothing that either can cure;
Nothing to shame, nothing to blame,
Nothing to do but endure.
The world cannot keep still,
Times ebb and women change
Nothing here that is worth tear,
One love less-nOthing strange.
Drifting away from each other,
Steadily drifting apart;
No wrong to each that the world can
reach;
Nothing lost but heart.

Relief.

Once more the country has occasion
to be thankful. Another Democratic
House will pack up and go home to-day.
On the whole, it has been little the
worst Congress that the country has yet
seen; not specially because of its cor
ruption, though it was corrupt enough
in all conscience, or want of conscience /;
and not specially because of any one
outrageous thing which it did, though it
has done good many; but because of its
unmitigated and unlimited incompetence
and stupidity. When it comes to this,
that the only thing legislative body
cannot possibly do is to legislate, then
it is time to sweep that particular body
out of the way as rubbish. Its incidental
faults my be passed in silence. 1t is
quite enough that the body was elected
to make laws, and proved absolutely
incapable.

and brings disaster upon thousands of
establishments, and suffering upon mil
lions of homes. That is just what this
Democratic House did all the last ses>
sion. 1t threatened industry; it produ-
ced uncertainty about every operation of
commerce, of trade, or of productive la
bor. The millions of working people
who nave been compelled to draw from
their savings during the past year to
beep their families from starvation, and
the multitudes who, being unable to
draw from savings because they had
none, have suffered, and are to-day in
want or dependent upon charity, if
they could understand just what has
harmed them, would bury this outgoing
Congress under an avalanche of curses
The Democratic party exists in this
country only because there are good

when they are wronged and cursed, and

The refusal to deal decently with the
