VICTORIA,
QUEEN OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND,
AND Empress OF INDIA.


Victoria has entered her fftieth year
as Queen OF Great Britain and Ireland.
Her additional title OF Empress of India
dates from January l. 1877. when il was
assumed by proclamation at Delhi, be-
fore the princes and high dignitaries of
India. The late Earl of Beaconsfield
was the British statesman by whose
advice Her Majesty, the Green, was
pleased to assume the Imperial title.
The end OF Queen Victoria's fiftieth
year as sovereign will be celebrated by
great rejoicings; her entering 1t re-

died June 20, 1887, the date of Victorias

Seven Of her nine children are living.
The heir-apparent to Victoria is her

LITTLE FEET.

Two little feet. 50 small that both nay nestle
In one caressing hand
Two tender fett upon the untried border
OF LIES mysterious land
Dimpled and soft, and pink ~ peach tree blossoms
In Aprifs fragrant days
How can they walk among the briefy tangles
Edging the worlds rosgh ways!
These white-rose feet along the doubted future
Must bear q woman's load;
Al2s since the woman has the heaviest burden,
And walks the hardest road.
Love. for awhile will make the path before them
All dainty, smooth and fair
VIII cut away the branbles. letting only
The roses bloom there
But when the mothers watchfuI eyes are shrouded
Away from the sight OF men.
And these dear feet are left without her guiding,
Who shall direct them them
How will they be slIured, betrayed, deluded-
Poor little untsughf feeti-
Into what weary mazes will they wander.
What dangers will they meet?
Will they 60 stun bling bIiDdly into the darkness
OF sorrow's fearful shades?
Or and the upland slopes Of Peace and Beauty,
Whose sunlight never fades.
WIN they 60 toiiing up Ambitions summit.
The common world above!
Or In some narneless vale securely sheltered,
Walk side by side with loves
Some feet there be which walk Life's track un-
Which find but pleasant ways;
Some hearts there be 10 which this life Is only
A round of happy days.
But they are few. Far more there are who wander
without hope or friend
Who find their journey full of pain and losses,
And long to reach the end.
How shall f. be with her, the tender stranger,
Fair. faced and gentle eyed.
Before whose unstained feet the worlds rude high.
Stretches so strange and wide?
All who may read the future? For our darling
We crave all blessings sweet
And pray that he VINO feeds the crying ravens,
VIII guide the baby's feet.

sat by my window one night,
And watch'd how the stars grew high,
And the earth and the skies were splendid sight
To a sober and musing eye.
From heaven the silver moon shone down
With gentle and mellow ray,
And beneath the crowded roofs of the town
In broad light and shadow lay.
A glory was on the silent sea,
And mainland and island too,
Till a haze earae over the lowland lea,
And shrouded that beautiful blue.
Bright In the moon the autumn wood
Its crimson scarf unrolled,
And the trees like a splendid army stood
In panoply of gold
| saw them waving their banners high,
As their crests to the night wind bowed,
And distant sound on the air went by,
Like the whispering of a crowd.
Then watched from my window how fast
The lights all around me fed,
As the wearied man to his slumber passed,
And the sick one to his bed.
All faded save one, that burned
With distant and steady light;
But that, too, went out, and turned
Where my own lamp within shone bright!
Thus, thought |, our joys must die;
Yes. the brightest from earth we win;
Till each turns away, with sigh,
10 the lamp that burns brightly within.

One Of John Bright's Best Hits

OAAO VA ~ AAAA 1DA > 4DCoI 441lS
One of the finest pictures in the gal
lery which the Chamber of Commerce
is forming is the portrait of the British
Quaker statesman, John Bright, of
whom member of the Chamber told n
pleasant story yesterday. Mr.. Bright
is connected in some official way with n
bank somewhere in England, and some
body asked h m how it was that this
bank had been so uniformly successful.
and Mr.. Bright answer was: We'll.
the only reason | know of is that we
have never had any very clever fellows
about it.
That reason will find appreciation on
this side OF the Atlantic. where clever
ness has swellcd the Canadian census
so rapidly Somebody who heard OF
Mr.. Bright's remark complimented him
on its brightness. Evidently Mr.. Bright
agreed with him, for it is said that later
the old gentlemen incorporated it into
public speech. fastening it upon an
unnamed "friend," bit Of fiction quite
excusable of course, but still little out
