Amid the arches of the sky.
Dreamy air lies still,
No sound disturbs the leafy glade
Save that by busy woOdb bill made
Upon some ancient trunk, decayed-
Calm broods DER vale and hill.
in such an hour love to stray
From haunts of tOiling men away,
Mid forest depths profOund;
There, in bliss OF solitude,
Where no dull cares of earth intrude,
And Nature breathes sweet quietude-
The grand old trees around
The heart by daily cares oppressed,
The wearied spirit findeth rest,
AS, pilloWed on the sod,
With nought above but leaf and sky,
And loving look of Heavenly Eye,
Perchance with angels lowering nigh,

Very beautiful women and fine
lcssIzing men are ''raised.' as the Amer
iean would say, in Persia and the
khanate of Central Asia. Europe or
America never produced such a par
agun of luvedness as General Nazar
Aga's wife. Some of the noblest types
of the Caucasian and Semitic races are
still found in the valleys of Central Asia.
They are physically as superior to a
civilized European as Khiya steed is
to Partisan cab-horse. However, when
not in the first bloom of youth, the
women have a sorrowful, not to say a
morose, look, which impairs their

change the commissioner has shipped
nearly 100, 600 eggs Of lake trout, white.

10000 white-tish eggs to Berlin, where

is not to haul out the manure in the spring,

Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

FOR the News
GC0d Friday and Easter Sunday
rood Friday Christ was crucifcd-
Our sins on Him we're laid,
Our claim He fully satisfied
Dear Christ atonement made.
For you, for me, for all mankind,
Redemption made for all;
II you but seek Him you will find
Delight in Jesus call.
Al those who ask in living faith,
You'll surely find the Lord,
And bear in mind what Jesus saith,
Vow love my written word.
Dear Savior, thou vast cruciiied,
Earth quaked when Jesus bled,
And rocks, the solid rocks, divide,
seeing Jesus hang his head.
Twas then the Savior hung his head
E-'en moon and stars grew dim.
R-edeemer He was God divine
Died for us-suffered shame;
And now salvation's free for ALL
Yes, all may freely come.
Good Friday Jesus suffered death
Upon the cross for me,
And II 20 was laid in Jesus grave
AS in Gods word we see.
Good Saturday He slept in peace,
Watched by the Roman guard
OF sixty soldiers watching close
Around Jesus Christ our Lord.
So early on the third day morn,
The Lord his angel sent
To roll away the mighty stone,
Then from the tomb He weut.
The power Of God did shake the earth.
The soldiers fell as dead,
Soon Mary came to balm her Lord,
But her dear Lord had fed.
The Savior rose triumphanty,
And conquered Death and He'll
In forty days He took His flight,
In Heaven above to dwell
Where He now sits to intercede
For sinful fallen man,
And all the hosts of Gods elect
Admire the glorious plan.
