THE DEMON WHO TURNS TO THE LEFT.
There are all kinds of people abroad in the

But there's one encounter wherever we stray
OF whom we'd be gladly bereft,

The demon who turns to the LEFT.
He seems to take pleasure IN lodging about
To him 'tis the highest delight
To All your whole soul with q horrible doubt
Ifheill turn to the left or the right.
In manner that ba fies your reason completes
With q movement both subtle and deft
He'll manage TO knock you clear of Of your feet
The demon who turns TO the left
There's the woman we all Of US frequently meet
Whose parasolis aimed at our eye;
And the rhumps who persstentIy tramp on oar

They're all pretty hard to get by.

Cook one of the leading business men
and bankers of Medicine Lodge, who
spent the day in Wichita yesterday,
being en- route for Washington and
New York, said, during brief call,
that the future of that city was never
so bright as now. Their plaster paris
mill, with a capacity of two car loads
per day their new sugar factory; their
fine waterworks. and other enterprises,
are all being pushed forward in a most
satisfactory manner. For one we have
never entertained any doubts of that
city's future. 1t is one of the natural
business points, and what Wichita
wants is a railroad to Medicine Lodge,
direct, and at the earliest day possible.
The San Francisco people would find
the construction of such line profit

MendelSSOhn.

Read by Mrs. NJ. w. H. ut the Mozart Club
So accustomed are we all to associate
genius with trial and disappointment,
and to expect its recognition to fall
only upon the dull, cold ear of DEATH
that it is pleasant to remember that the
efforts of Mendelssohn were not fettered
by The clog of poverty, nor his young
heart saddened by parental opposition.
He was of Jewish ancestry and wealthy
parentage. His grandfather was known
as the most distinguished metaphysi-
clan of his time. His father was con-
verted to Christianity and Felix, the
subject of this sketch, was brought up
in the Lutheran faith, From infancy,
the tone of his mind was joyful and re-
ligious. His Oratorios were the express
sion of his own faith and joy.
Somewhere, long ago, 1 read that
when a small child he would stand at
the piano and laugh until he caught the
key note of his own glee, then 60 on
laughing and playing its accompani-
ment and would become so exhilerated
that both piano and his little self trem-
bled with the delirium of his mirth At
eight he played the intricate scores of
Bach, and transposed the most difficult
exercises. He performed in public at
nine, and afterwards travelled for three
years. through England, France and
Italy. He was for years better known
in England than in Germany, and
brought out the oratorIo of Elijah at
Birmingham.
Few have not rejoiced IN the comfort
ing of REST in the Lord" Cast thy
Burden Upon Him., or the perhaps
grander selections from ''St. Paul.
"Be Thou Faithful Unto Death, and
will give Thee Crown of Life,'' or "Be
not Afraid, Thy Helper is Nigh Even
in his lighter efforts as in Parting and
Meeting" he dwells with strong empha-
sis upon the joy of reunion.
While in England he was honored
with the friendship of Victoria and her
husband. and admired and loved by all.
For years before his death he was on
pressed at times with sadness, for
which there was no explanation. 1t
never deepened into gloom, for his life,
like his music, was ever hopeful. AS
was written, ''the shadow of the unseen
world was settling around him. He
seemed to lose, willingly. his hold upon
the life that to him was only as the pre-
lude to the infinite harmony beyond.
Born at Hamburg, 1909, died at l4eipsic,
aged 81 wears.
