NEW EVERY MORNING.


Every day is fresh beginning,
Every morn is The world made new;
You who are weary of sorrow and SHINING,
Here is Il beautiful hope for you,
A hope for me and hope for you.
All the past things are past and over,
The tasks are done and the tears are shed;
Yesterdays errors, let yesterday cover;
Yesterday wounds, which smarted ana bled
Are healed with the healing which night has
shed.
Yesterday is n part of forever,
Bound in sheaf " hich God holds tight
With glad days and sad day and bad days
which never
Shall visit us more with their bloom and theil
blight
Their fullness of sunshine or sorrowfui night
Let them go, since we cannot recall them'
Cannot undo and cannot atone:
God in his mercy receive, forgive them!
Only the new days are our own;
To-day is ours and to-day alone.
Here are the skies all FURNISHED brightly
Here is the spent earth all reborn,
Here are tired limbs springing lightly
To face the sun and to share with The morn
In The cbrism of dew and the cool of dawn.
Every day IS fresh beginning;
Listen my soul, to the glad refrain,
And, spite of all sorrow and old shining,
And puzzle foreasted and possible pain,
Take heart with the day and begin again.

! ment must be in other hands, since it re-
fuses to act as it now exists. How can
this be done? We answer, and challenge
successful contradiction. It can be done
only by the formation Of such new politi-
cal relations as shall overthrow the old
and inaugurate new system of Judicial,
legislative, and executive control. For
twenty years the old party lines have been
prejudice and spois. The controlling vote
of each party has been in the hands Of
such voters as chose their party affiliations
from purely mercenary and selfish motives;
and aside from the small number of new
party men, the only man who has had a
controlling principle rather than preju-
dice at the ballot has been the man whose
sole principle was the protection Of a dis
graceful and criminal business.
We have waited long for the formation
of new party that, like the Republican
party of 1860, should rise in compliance
with the demands of justice and overthrow
a National curse. That new party has
come to the front, and claims, at the hands
of every American citizen, fair and can
did hearing. It's principles are eutspoken,
its purpose, the putting down Of long
standing evils. Its supporters are Chris
tian citizens, educated thinkers, lovers OF
! justice 1t demands government for our
country that shall not only prohibit the ex-
| portation of rum to heather nations of the
world, but shall also prohibit, by law, the
| importation and sale of Intoxicating drinks
within its own borders, and execute its
laws with unfiinching zeal.
If the evils of the liquor traffic in our
own country are so great as to demand the
interference of sober political citizenship,
ought not the woes brought to missionary
fields by this evil demand Ike interfer-
ence of sober Christian citizenship?
Let the sixty-fye foreign missionary so

HANGING PICTURES PROPERLY,

No picture, says an exchange, ought to
be hung higher than the height of the
average human eye when the owner of the
eye is standing. 1t is the most universal
rule in our homes to hang pictures much
above this level. and they cannot be enjoy
ed there. If the picture is a portrait or it
has human faces in it, its eyes should look
as nearly into ours as possible; and if there
be no such simple guide, perhaps a good
rule will be to have the line that divides
the picture horizontally into equal parts
level with the eye. II one starts to hang
pictures with the determination to place
them SO that they can be easily seen and
enjoyed without stretching the neck in the
least, or STOPPING the body, he will be pref
ty sure to do well.
In remote farmhouses and country tay-
erns we otten see pictures, particularly
portraits, skyed as high as if their owners
had been academy hangers and the paint
ers young rivals OF a new school, Isuppose
that the reason is that the owners think
PtSeutp suSA q pfcciVhs tilHs lDat II Can
not be hung too securely ont Of the reach
Of meddling hands. They are often not
clear in their minds as to what the picture
is meant for, and not finding it in any par
tieular relation TO human life or society,
they treat it with reverence ard put it
where it will disturb them as little as pos
sible. But as people come to enjoy pic
lures, and get some intellectual, spiritual
nourishment ont of them. they want them,
as they want their books, where they can
see them and use them.

LET THE CHILDREN PLAY.

Children with active minds should not be
sent to school as early as those of slower
mental growth Let them romp ard play
until they have attained the age of eight or
ten wears, without learning letter, il need
be. They will be none the worse for it and,
when they do begin, will progress more rap
idly than those who begin three or four
years before There are those who will, per
haps. take exceptions to this, but to the fact
OF early begun and long continued school
life, the broken down nervous system Of the
average American can justly be attributed.
Health first; let mental attainments follow
as they naturally will. 1t is not to be sup
posed that during this period the child is to
be altogether free of training of any kind.
A system Of home discipline shoald go on
during this time that will prove Invaluable

knowledge Of this sort gained will more
than counterbalance that which they
would have attained at school, and good
health, that which is of paramount inn
portance, will not be undermined by con-

plant the crop.
The yield Of fodder-corn per

twenty to thirty tons. Some claim
that as much as fifty tons can bo

that from fifteen to twenty tons
arc as much as the average Vir-

timating three tons Of cnsil:sgc

you will have the equivalent of
five tons of hay per acre. 1t is

)license to run a variety theatre ON the

clerk refused to issue the license. The
same parties n soon, after presented .
PETITION to the city council, asking per-
mission 10 run . variety theatre in said
place. This petition was refused, Or, in
parliamentary language, was laid on the
table, which was equivalent toia re.
fusal. Yesterday the same parties ap-
piled again TO the city, clerk for 4 IL
cense, tendering legal money in the
amount provided for by ordinance, ire
specting licenses to theatres and shows
and the license was again refused, II
lis now understood that these formal
applications for license having been
properly made and refused the variety
theatre win be started and run, and the
right to run such q theatre be tested
before the courts, in case the city coun-
oil should interfere with the business.
Legal advice has been taken on the
subject, and an issue will be made with
