1T MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

When over youths receding track
The moonlight of remembrance throws
tender charm, half winning back
The sunshine that too quickly goes:
How oft in retrospection cast,
Untrammoled fancy floats between
The actual story of the past
And what that story might have been.
But simple words to breathe so much
OF soft regret or sorrow keen.
In truth there are not many touch
More hearts than these 1t might have been
Alone and loveless, year by year,
Our lives are lived, our ways are planned;
Young love himself once lowered near,
To wait awhile II reckoning hand.
When wlstfully the urchn smiled,
we passed him by with look serene,
Though now, warrant though beguilec
We sometimes say: 1t might have beenl
Oh, simple words that breathe so much
OF soft regret or sorrow keen,
Where is the heart we can not touch,
OFT echoed sigh: 1t might have been?
We saw the victor's laurel wave,
But never proud success have known;
Alack, her glowing mead she gave
To other efforts than our own.
Twas not for us to taste her bliss,
Who only prove what failures mean;
Yet conscience whispers-but for this,
Or but for that: 1t might have been!
Where is the heart they can not touch
With soft regret or sorrow keen?
To you, to me, they breathe so much
Those simple words: 1t might have been
Here was the glitterng plaything priced,
Whose worthlessness we saw too late:
And there the single chance despised
Which opened up fairer fate.
All, well day! We know not what
Of danger lurked within the scene,
And haply it were wiser not
To dream of all that might have been.
And yet our inmost hearts they touch
With soft regret or sorrow keen,
Those simple words which mean so much,
That frequent sigh: 1t might have been!

All One Mans Work.

Delitzsch is one of the humblest towns
of Germany; its population, even now,
is not more than 5000, and thirty years
ago it was much less, but from small
beginnings among the shoemaSers of
Delitzsch, in 1850, Hermann Schulz has,
by faith and patience, created one of
the most remarkable social structures Of
the century. When he died in 1888
there were $500 cooperative societies
in Germany organized under his own
control, besides thousands more in
Austria, Italy, Russia and Belgium,
which owed their origin to his example,
and looked up to him as their father.
Those $500 societies had a membership
of Il, 100000, a share capital of E10,-
O00,000,0O0, deposits amounting to
e21, 900, 600, and did a total business of

to show such significant facts as these:

about fifty per cent. to their popula-

effects Of these varying rates Of increase
upon political power are obvious; and
still more obvious is their prospective
effect. Ciroumstancessmay modify the
result to a certain extent but on the
