o Death, Of terTors thou art king!
The shadow of thy sable wing
Obscnres the sun of yon bright sky,
And doomes that every man must die.
Not ke alone, who tolls along
The highway, begging of the throng
paltry sum 10 meet his needs,
But kings and queens whose crowned heads,
Flash with the l.eht Of jewels rare,
Yea, thy destroying hand is therel
The peasant on his lowly cot,
Lies down to sleep and he is not;
And princes in their pagent train
OF glory, strive. bat all in vain,
To thwart thy 6oming-thy pale hand,
Has but to move in stern command,i
And they bow low.
Thy iron heart
Spares not the aged, and thy dart
Sinks deep into the heart OF youth,
Who. fred with zeal, with hope and truth,
Desires to live, and pleads with thee,
But thy unehanging, stern decree
Demands that he must die.
Young Love,
Who doth with tender passion move
All hearts save thine; thou doom'st to pain,
And Beautys scepter sways in vain.
The bright, the fair, the brave, who crown
Our hearts with gladness, thou layest down
To sleep upon a common plane
With Beggars. whose slow steps of pain
Gould reach no home, Reft cen of love.
Whose rest, whose quiet was TO rove.
And now thy cold, relentless hand
Has touched the chieftan of our land
Has dimmed the eye which once did flash
With light and spirit as the crash
OF shot and shell burst on his ear
And told that bitter foes were near.
Thermopole and Marathon
Boast of 10 brave, more loyal son;
Yet thy destroying, unseen hand
Hast borne him 10 the silent land.
o Grant, our eountry's hero, dead,
A Nations tears for thee are shed;
But dearer far than jeweled crown
We hold thy honOred names renown.
Thy last long siege of earth is DER,
And comrades mourn from shore to shore
That thou hast fallen.
Sleep, thou brave,
Within the silence Of the grave;
Thou strong defender OF the just,
May angels guard thy sacred dust.
Thou eonquering hero, EN- in death
Thy hands have grasped the victor's wreath.
Redeemed forever, thou canst sing:
80 conquered Death, where is thy sting?''

A child lay dying; but still her brow was clear.
sad faces dropped around; but on her own
No shadow darEened. Was the end unknown
To her young heart? And struck with sudden
fear
Lest death should take her by surprise-"My

Her mother whispered, "thou wilt soon be
gone;
Put oh, my lamb will not be left alone:
Thou art in deaths dark vale; but He is near"
The child looked wondering i'm her mothers face.
Il am in no dark vale" she said, and smiled.

The Mortgage.

The worst crop a farmer can raise is
mortgage. 1t ia parasite which Is
ever eating into and corroding his pros
perity and happiness And vet nothing
so tempts a farmer as an offer of loan.
1t is sad thing to thoughtful person
to see the frequent advertisements o:
the loan mongers who have mortgages
on farms to dispose of. American
farmers have wholesome repugnance
to Landlord" and pity those unfortu-
nate foreigners who are paying rents
for the land and fields they are working
and improving for other men. But what
difference is there between a farmer
who pays rent of three hundred dol
airs year and one who pays interest
N a mortgage of five thousand dollars?
The. landlord is the lighter incubus to
carry and has moro mercy than a mort
gagee. who sells out the hapless debtor
and loads him up with more debt. At
times correspondents inquire where
loans can be procured In ell such cases
the reply should be Don't" don't risk
the farm and homestead and the peace
and happiness OF q family in that way.
Rather economic in every poSsbis way,
knowing how easy it is to borrow or go
in debt and how hard it is to pay.-N
