The warden of her theft should be

The depth of thine 1niquityi
Oh, lawless reiyer, by my song
Have brought home thy guilt to lheef
Wouidst thou atone for this thy wrongi

In lieu of that now lost to me,
Yield up thy heart to keeping strong;
So shall we walk among the throng
Closed linked by like iniquity,
And out Of evil good shall bel

THE PROMISED LAND.

Above them, .frowning stern and bare,
The lifted SUBMITS cleaned in air;
Around them, wan ana pitiless,
There stretched the alien wilderness?
But day by day, at Gods command,
They Jared unto the promised land.
What booted it that years might lie
Between these clouds and that clear sky?
That night and morning, manna-fed,
Their host was through the desert led?
In faith each pilgrim dared to stand
Triumphant in the promised land.
The savage tribes their path might bar.
And dare their mighty men Of war;
The idols, throned in grove and shrine
Insult the conqueror divine;
But safe should march the chosen band
God guided to the promised land.
o friendsl we fare upon our way,
By foes surrounded every day;
Our hearts are faint with pain and loss,
We have the wilderness to cross;
But couragei it's the Fathers hand
That leads US to the promised land.

There are a couple of school girls
sisters-who live ION the hill'' and are
very prominent in their set, both being
extremely clever young women, though
of quite different types. The younger,
aged thirteen, has a severe case OF
Anglomania, that the older, aged fif-
teen, strongly disapprOves. When Miss
Thirteen gets among the boys, her
mania invariably takes a turn for the
worse, and her sister suffers accordingly.
At a party not long ago the two were
vis-a-vis in the lanciers, and mingled
with the strains of the music, there
sounded in the older girls ear the
"cawnts," "pawsts," ''dawnces" of her
sister until her distinctly American
soul was in agony. She endured in
silence for time, but with an inter-
mission in the dance came, it became
too much for human nature. She
deliberately crossed over to her sister
with the independent, determined air
peculiar to herself, took firm stand,
sized the offender up from foot to head,
and said with awful distinctness:
"Cordelia Emmeline Fitz-Porter, l
don't like your STYLE" Then she turned
on her heel and rejoined her partner, as
cool and undisturbed as if she had not
exploded a bomb sfn the cause of SIM
plicity and her country.

Everybody seems to have discharged
her social obligations for the season.
Who can remember the number of
weeks that have interviewed since the
last afternoon reception? Swell din
ners, progressive euchre parties-all
affairs the enjoyment of which is in in
verse proportion to their eXtent-are in
order, to the exclusion of everything
else. Next week, however. all this will
be changed. On Wednesday evening
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Keogh will give
large dancing party for Miss Keogh;
Thursday evening Gov. and Mrs. w. r.
Merriam will give a bal masque to the
German club at their home on Univer
sity avenue, and the following evening,
at the gubernatorial mansion, Master
Jack and Miss Mabel Merriam will give
fancy dress ball TO their young friends.
Mistaken ideas of the 'event of the
season" are about to receive fresh cor
rectionS.
