Some of the Protestant papers are
calling attention to the fact that, while
Protestants are appealing and coaxing
men to go to the heathen as mission

are 4S3, 403 baptized converts, Al Euro

In the Indo-China peninsula, there are

NE AND MINE.
The earth is fun Of treasures

The earth is full OF treasures
That men go far to seek;
There are diamonds in the valley.
There is gold on mountain peak;
There are palaces Of splendor.
Filled with jewels rare and fine,
but among these rich surroundings
You'u find neither me nor mine.
Some dwell in high positions
With servants at command,
With riches as their portion
The magnates OF the land:
And from their lofty stations
It's seldom they incline
To pass q word of greeting
To either me or mine.
For We are working people,
And are busy all the day;
Have little time for reading,
Have little time for play.
But at cur humble fortunes
'Tis useless 10 repine,
For He who rules the world must know
What best for me and mine.
So with contented spirits
We toll from day to day,
Rejoiced 20 be together,
And sad when ones away.
And always at our table,
Wit takes the place OF wine,
And friends come very often
To sit with me and mine.
And SO we're never lonely
Throughout the whole long year;
Our hearts are full OF sunshine;
Our homes are full OF cheer.
And though our richer neighbors
In halls OF splendOr shine.
Tn sure there must be seasons
When they envy me and mine.

A System Which Is said to Assure Abso-
Lutte Secrecy OF the Ballot.
This plan is the only one ever yet
devised for securing the absolute
secrecy of the ballot cast. In brief,
it consists in having a room adjacent
to and communicating with the poll
room, into which the electors are ad-
mitted one at time; the voter selects
a ticket on which is printed the names
of the Offices and the candidates to be
voted for. Thus, for the sake of illus
tration, John Brown and James Robin
son are candidates. say for sheriff, Sam
Smith and Tom Jones are candidates
for State Senator, and John Bull and
Sam Uncles are running for Assembly.
All these names will be printed on a
single ticket, furnished ut State ex-
pense, and will read as follows:
SHERIFF.
John Brown.
James Robinson

Sam Smith.
