RELISHED RAIN.
1t Comes to the Rescue of Many
Fields of Wheat, Rive and Oats.

A heavy rain fell over this region Tues
day afternoon. The winds, which had
prevailed without variation from the
south or southeast for upwards of week,
had done their work well. The rain was
general along this line of railroad to
Kansas City.
In this county, many fields Of wheat,
rye and oats are saved by this rain. They
were needing rain, and but for its ar
rival, would, in many instances, have
been of but little value.
The corn crop has looked well all
along. This has been the report of every
single individual who has reported to
this Office. This rain will assure its con-
tinued prosperity for some time longer.

FRAGMENTS,
ny AUGUSTUS cunEEr.

Life Is not lived without its cost,
Though well the wiSest scheme and plan.
The most we gather seems but lost
In daily sustenance of the man.
The little that survives the years,
Is, but al best the broken bread.
The scanty fragments, wet with tears,
And dropped by us discomtitted.
and yet oh, sorrowing soul. the crumb
BY era Q of od is magnited,
When we, grown weary, would succumb,
1t feeds and makes us satisfied.
Gray socks beside the gnawing sea,
And sterile hillsides bleak with sand;
, In Gods hereafter, come to be
The daintiest pastures of the land.
Move on, atomic fragments. move!
And man, your scattered Titles press
IN molds where one whose hands in love
Shapes all to forms of loneliness.
And from the fragments of your lives,
In lines of beauty rich and warm,
Brings that TO being, which survives,
And from whose pattern men perform.
OF the old victor. crowned with leaves,
Held only fragments on his head
The same green laurel he receives
Who sleepeth in his churchyard bed.
And we may learn how life is blessed
From one rejected fragment stone,
On whose foundation we, distressed,
Build into beauty not our own.
Not dust and fragments, after all;
When God with goodness touches them
Beheld their glory as the stall
He touched for us at Bethlehem.
